( kat, 23, she/her, bahar sahin ) are you ready to meet your new gods, [ HOPE SUMMERS ]? [ HOPE ] is known for [ POWER MIMICRY, HAND TO HAND COMBAT, FIREARMS ], and is usually seen hanging around [ NO ONE ]. genetically, [ SHE ] is a [ MUTANT ] from the [ MARVEL ] universe, and is [ EIGHTEEN ] years old.
this one’s a complicated one, sit back kids and let me tell you a story...
hope was the first mutant born after the decimation, aka wanda saying “no more mutants” resulting in the majority of mutantkind loosing their powers.
this was obviously a big deal and when she was born her psychic signature cause cerebra to blow up. this plot line is never developed further and was pretty much used to make her seem like jean grey reincarnated.
she was the daughter of captain louise spalding, a fire chief and an unknown father. her mother was killed when the purifiers attacked the hospital shortly after her birth. they intended to kill hope but she was saved by her would be adoptive father, nathan summers.
while hope summers was born only a few months/years ago, she is biologically eighteen. this is due to the fact that she was raised in the future, on the run from a time travelling mutant named bishop who believed killing her would prevent his future.
hope wasn’t given a name until a few years after her birth. her father nathan settled down with a woman named hope who was later killed, hope was named in her honor.
hope and nathan spent most of her childhood time jumping through the future while in pursuit of bishop. during this time nathan trained her in surviving various post-apocalyptic wastelands.
bishop was eventually sent into the far future, his time device destroyed, allowing for hope and nathan to return to the present.
hope’s return caused the appeared of five new mutants who seemed to have a strange connection to hope.
hope’s power is eventually reveled to be power mimicry. this works in a proximity basis and does not require contact. hope can only mimic powers of mutants and is able to mimic multiple at once.
hope was being constantly trained by cyclops which frustrated her as it seemed he was preparing her for something but refused to tell her what. after exhibiting phoenix-like powers, she discovered the phoenix force was coming to earth and it was in search of her.
this caused a gigantic fight between the avengers and xmen over who should be in charge of hope.
tony stark created a device which he thought would destroy the phoenix force but only divided it between, illyana, namor, emma, scott and piotr.
hope joined wanda maximoff in fighting to stop the phoenix five and it eventually resulted in hope possessed by the phoenix force. wanda kept her grounded and together they destroyed the phoenix force in what they thought was for good.
post avx hope decided to live a normal life for literally the first time ever. this lasted about four weeks before she stuck her nose into other people's business and eventually joined nathan’s x-force.
currently hope lives in krakoa, helping charles and erik with their goal.
aha, if you read all this i appreciate you. hope is a member of the summers family which is super complicated but basically hope is the adopted daughter of nathan summers. nathan summers is the child of scott summers and madelyne pryor, a clone of jean grey.
