Arcanna

Origin

Though not expressly stated, it is highly likely that Arcanna gained her abilities as a result of the nanovirus that came to Earth on Hyperions ship, that is also responsible for giving many other humans powers in that universe (Earth 31916).

History

Arcanna has not been fleshed out as much as some of the others in the JMS revamp of Squadron Supreme. She was the author of a book on quantum physics before she was first recruited. Before the Squadron was officially started, she was a member of a smaller team (Shape, Mr. Gaines, Emil Burbank, and herself) that was sent by the General who created the Squadron, to retrieve Hyperion and bring him back under the governments control. During a freak accident resulting from her powers meeting with Hyperions flash vision, and Mr. Gaines radiation bursts, they were all sent into the future for a short time. Once Hyperion was back, she became a founding member of the Squadron Supreme.

Powers

Arcanna controls quantum outcomes. She sees all possible quantum realities and is able to choose which one happens (similar to the Scarlet Witch ability to manipulate probability). She is also a leading expert in quantum mechanics due to this ability.
