Name(s):
Pietro Maximoff
Nicknames:
Quicksilver
Age:
16
Species:
human/mutant
Gender:
male
Alignment:
Evil
Residence:
New York
Personal Relationships (Optional):

Lorna Dane (Polaris) - His half-sister...his more sweeter sister.
Occupation:
Brotherhood member
Abilities:
Speed Physiology: Pietro's body is adapted towards the rigors of high-speed running. His cardiovascular and respiratory systems are many times more efficient than those of a normal human being. He metabolizes an estimated 95% of the caloric energy content of foodstuffs (normal humans use about 25%). The chemical processes of Quicksilver's musculature are so highly enhanced that his body does not generate fatigue poisons, the normal by-products of locomotion, which force the body to rest. Rather, his body constantly expels waste products during his accelerated respiration through exhalation. His joints are smoother and lubricated more efficiently than those of a normal human being. His tendons have the tensile strength of spring steel. His bones contain unknown materials significantly more durable than calcium to withstand the dynamic shocks of his feet touching the ground at speeds a human could never achieve or withstand. Quicksilver's practical reaction time is several times faster than a normal human's and the speed at which his brain processes information is heightened to a level commensurate with his bodily speed, enabling him to perceive his surroundings while traveling at high velocities. Quicksilver's lachrymose is more viscous than normal, thus preventing rapid evaporation and replenishment of surface fluids on his eyeballs under the influence of high wind velocity to occlude his vision.
Superhuman Speed: He was originally capable of running faster than the speed of sound (770 miles per hour)[7]. He had sufficient energy reserves that enabled him to run at this average speed for an unknown amount of hours before reducing his speed to replenish his body's store of energy. Quicksilver has used his powers of acceleration for various feats. He has plucked an arrow out of the air from a standing start, and has dodged machine gun fire. He has created cyclone-like gusts of wind, which are able to knock a man off his feet. He is able to run across the Atlantic Ocean and to oversea continents without having to stop, run up the sides of buildings effortlessly, and also seems able to use some type of energy, comparing it to "his father's power". After being captured by the High Evolutionary, where his powers were upgraded by Isotope E, his speeds have been increased until he was capable of reaching high supersonic speeds up to at least Mach 4 (3,080 miles per hour), the true extent of his new speeds are unknown. It is possible that he could run at even greater speeds if he was not limited by geological and atmospheric conditions. Quicksilver is also immune to the effects of friction, reduced oxygen up to a point where a human can no longer breathe, and impact upon his body while moving at super-speeds. He has traveled around the world by running on top of the ocean water and even ran all the way up Mount Everest without slowing down and went flying above cloud level as a result.
Molecular Destabilization: Through the course of his life as a mutant, his super speed has granted him numerous abilities. One of the very peculiar ones was being able to vibrate his molecular structure at high speeds. Different writers used it for different things that were often absurd or completely ignored it. He has demonstrated the full effect which enables him to destabilize atomic matter by accelerating its molecules often causing it to fall apart or explode usually by touching it
Weaknesses:
Pietro doesn't appear to have any psychical weakness, however he does suffer a superiority complex. He's completely arrogant, believing he can beat anyone, and is cocky enough to take on any challenge one calls out on him.
He also has a father complex; yearning to earn his father's love and respect, due to loneliness created by the lack of attention from his father. His arrogance can be said to be used as a mask to hide his weakness.
Personality:
Arrogant and self assured, Pietro sees himself as better then the world around him. He feels his powers make him clearly superior to just about everybody else, just as everything else about him does. Most of the time, he is extremely frustrated with how slowly everything else other then him moves. This frustration makes him snappish and irritable, and the only person that he does not target with his scathing wit and caustic tongue is Wanda....though thanks to her 'reprogramming', he felt at ease around her.
Likes:
Showing off, the ladies, his sister, his father
Dislikes:
Evan, being ignored by his father

Bio:
Pietro Maximoff was the son of the mutant called Magneto and the gypsy named Magda. Just prior to Pietro's birth, Magda fled from Magneto, terrified of the bizarre powers he suddenly manifested and his intentions of world domination. However, Magneto managed to take possession of the twins, Pietro and Wanda. But years later, Wanda's powers manifested at an early age, in which she was too young to control her powers. Pietro innocently watched his sister left behind in an asylum. Magneto always left Pietro with a 'friend' in New York, for he often was off on some mission or another.
He attended a local high school, forming a rivalry with Evan Daniels. When Pietro took a hobby on stealing, he framed Evan for his crimes. But after Evan joined the X-Men, they caught Pietro and proved his acts over to the police. But Magneto easily broke him out of jail, and had him join the Brotherhood, just for him to keep an eye on Mystique.
Although he remained a member of the Brotherhood even after Mystique openly turned against Magneto, after the events on Asteroid M, Pietro remained loyal to his father and continued to receive direct instructions.
When Magneto revealed the existence of mutants to the world, Pietro finally showed his true colors by allying with his father. Pietro's vengeful sister Wanda escaped the mental asylum where she had been kept since childhood. She hated their father for abandoning her as a child in a mental asylum, and attempted to kill Magneto by crushing him underneath a Sentinel. Pietro rescued him at the last second so he appeared to die.
After this Pietro disappeared, presumably joining the Acolytes, until Wanda used some help from Caliban to track him down in a diner. Wanda sought to use Pietro as bait to draw out Magneto, and handed him over to the police. Magneto did not appear himself, but instead sent Gambit to take control of the remaining members of the Brotherhood, in Mystique's absence, and instruct them to rescue Pietro. They succeeded with some help from the X-Men members Rogue and Shadowcat. Pietro was subsequently put in charge of the Brotherhood on Magneto's orders. He took advantage of the new authority by bossing around his former teammates. Wanda was brainwashed by Mastermind into believing that Magneto had been a loving father, thus removing most of her rage. Pietro willingly accepted her onto the team.
Some time later, when Magneto created his own island nation for mutants, Genosha, Pietro and Wanda settled there with him. They even managed to discover about their half-sister, Polaris. However, Pietro was banished from the kingdom, due to failing an important mission. Pietro had no choice but to crawl back to the Brotherhood, who now lives in New York City, since their old house, in Bayville, was destroyed by the MRDs. They had a dispute, since Magneto only allowed his children to come to Genosha, and left the rest of the Brotherhood behind.
