That is not dead which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons even death may die. -H.P. Lovecraft
When Wanda talks about being “dead and yet not dead” in the last page of ToM it made me think of that quote
“There is no defense against the Scarlet Witch's HEX!”
People shouldn’t get so pressed about whether or not their fave is officially Omega or not. Outside of Planet-Sized it hasn’t exactly been a guarantor of appearances.
No pressure here, I just think that if Wanda gets to be confirmed as a mutant it would makes sense for her to be classified in accordance to the scope of her powers, It seems to me that the latest omega definition provided by hickman fits her perfectly and if the shoe fits…….
Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”
At least by definition, her probability manipulation powers seems to fit in the same category as Jaime’s or Mercator’s, both Omegas. Their powers are the manipulation of a certain element: Jaime with his quantum strings (of reality), Mercator with the “matter” in general. Probabilities in the case of Wanda, something that escapes the physical dimension and is more natural of an “intelligible plane”. I think she could eventually be classified as an Omega if she became a mutant again, although is not entirely necessary but it would be cool.
Wanda's power set is fine as it is, if she becomes a mutant again, her mutant power would simply be energy manipulation, which is the conduit for Chaos Magic.
If she got marked at birth by any other mystical entity, say Gaea, her power would potentially end up like Storm's with elemental manipulation and stuff.
Omega level mutants is a pointless title anyway, I really don't see the obessesion over it. Certainly not worth to change her established lore for it.
Wanda will always be a Mutant to me and the Daughter of Magneto i don't care what Marvel says.
