MCU: 8 Ways To Integrate Fox Characters

6. Magneto - Scarlet Witch's Father

It is no secret that Magneto, one of the most powerful mutants on Earth, is the father of Scarlet Witch, one of the most powerful characters in the entire MCU. While the rights of these two characters have prevented any mention or exploration of this relationship in the past, this may not be the case forever.

With their father already possessing special abilities, it would make sense for these to be passed down to Wanda and Pietro in some way, explaining why they were Strucker's greatest successes in his experiments. The sceptre didn't give the twins their powers, it simply enhanced the powers already lying within them.

In Age of Ultron we learnt that Wanda's parents died during a bombing of Sokovia while she and her brother survived. This is where her hatred of Tony Stark was born, but what if her father had survived the attack too?

After being rescued from the wreckage and remaining in a coma, and on waking several years later to find that his son is dead and his daughter has been working with the man who's weapons nearly killed them, Erik would wage war against Stark and The Avengers.

With Magneto's abilities rendering every single Iron Man suit useless, we would see Tony Stark face one of his toughest battles yet, not to mention how a fight with her presumed death father would affect the already unstable Wanda.
