History: Lorna was orphaned a few weeks after
birth, due to unknown factors. She was taken into an orphanage, and grew up
there for some 16 years. She refuses to discuss her childhood there, leading to
the realizaion of some unknown trauma having occurred within. As long as she's
known, she's always had her green hair, and the head of her orphanage had it
dyed blonde constantly to conceal as suspicions. On her 15th birthday, Lorna's
magnetic powers began to gradually emerge, causing strange incidents wherever
the girl was with anything magnetic nearby. As the orphanage discovered this,
they planned to ship her away to a government establishment that dealt with
mutants. That very night, as she lay in her bed for the last time, the very roof
was torn off the house. An enraged Magneto slaughtered most of the tenants and
plucked Lorna from within. Awestruck by her would-be savior, she went with no
fight. He took her to the Savage Land, where he explained that being a mutant
was no shame, and taught her to use her powers just as he would. Once Magneto
discovered a way to use her powers in synch with his own, making him twice as
strong, he kept Lorna closer to him. Lorna saw more of Magnus' raw hatred of
humanity, and it frightened her. As the months passed, Lorna felt these same
sensations within herself. However, she has been afraid to bring these in light
in front of him, for fear of his wrath. His daughter, Wanda, was the only
Brotherhood member to make Lorna feel comfortable, and friendly to a point.
Lorna remains with the Brotherhood out of her respect for Magneto and his cause,
and perhaps more. |
