Meggan is a mutant empath and shapeshifting elemental.
Meggan Puceanu possessed her mutant powers from the time she was born and her unusual appearance was startling to her Romanichal (a British Romani) family. Born during a blizzard her body's natural response to the cold was to grow fur over her entire body. Her family hid her away in their wagon but rumors of her spread quickly through the caravan. The people imagined her a demon with wings, fangs and red eyes so Meggan took on that appearance. Confined to the wagon with only the television for company she never learned to read or write.
In her late teens Great Britain was hit by a reality warping wave by Sir James Jaspers. Meggan was separated from her family and put into a concentration camp and she never saw her family again. Jaspers was defeated and reality returned to normal with most people forgetting that the wave ever happened. Memories fully intact and unable to find her family Meggan found an abandoned warehouse to live in. Despite her appearance she made friends with some local children, Mickey and Josie Scott, who would bring her food and try to calm her during full moons.
