History
Megan Gwynn is a Welsh teenager. After enrolling at the Xavier Institute, Gwynn became a part of the Paragon training squad under the tutelage of former New Mutant, Rahne Sinclair. During this time, she developed a crush on the X-Man Cyclops. She always wore a bicycle helmet during training sessions.
Gwynn has proven herself to be an amiable and cheerful student, and she fit in well with her squad, even being voted Friendliest Student. Following the events of House of M, almost all of the Institute's students were depowered, leading to the dissolution of the school's training squads. Gwynn is one of only twenty seven students, along with her fellow former Paragons, Trance, Wolf Cub, and Match, to have retained her mutant abilities.
Forty-two of Gwynn's former classmates died when their bus was attacked by forces of William Stryker, an anti-mutant bigot. Among the confirmed deaths was Gywnn's fellow Paragon, DJ.
Pixie, along with Anole, Loa, Wolf Cub, Rockslide, and Match, were told a frightening ghost story by their fellow student, Blindfold, one night at the school. Pixie, frightened by the story, tells Blindfold that she doesn't like her anymore. Blindfold apologizes to her and told her, "I'm sorry for your loss". It soon turned out that this tale wasn't a story at all, but rather a vision of things past and of things to come. The group was soon sucked down into the realm of Limbo, where they were immediately attacked by a mob of demons. Pixie stays by Blindfold's side during the fight, and Blindfold cautions Pixie and the others that Gwynn must not "fall into darkness". She was shown using her powers for the first time, incapacitating several demons with her "pixie dust", causing them to suffer psychadelic hallucinations. After Magik saves the small group, she asks N'astirh to bring Megan to her. Despite her friends' trying to stop her, Megan gave into Magik's request for a soul to create a Soulsword which actually resembles a Souldagger. Illyana then explains that the dagger is actually a portion of Pixie's own soul and that black magic has now filled the hole left behind in the knife's creation, leaving Pixie to no longer be an innocent personality as well as changing a great portion of her hair black instead of the previous pink.
Pixie is taught a teleportation spell by Illyana she teleports her and her friends to Belasco to stop him from torturing the rest of the team. She is then told that in order to save her friends she must use her knife to stab Belasco. Initially hesitant, Pixie follows through with her orders and loses more of her innocence by killing the villain. After defeating Belasco and escaping from Limbo, Pixie was officially made a member of the team.
Blindfold later states that Pixie will soon be injured.
Upon returning from Limbo, Pixie joins X-23, Hellion, Anole, Surge, Armor and Rockslide in attacking the Washington DC base of the Purifiers by teleporting them there. They are opposed by Lady Deathstrike and the Reavers.
When Julian is injured and the Reavers are about to attack, Pixie panics and cannot teleport the team out until Rictor, who infiltrated the Purifiers as a spy, tells her to concentrate or else they'll all die. Pixie does so, but blindly teleports the team, scattering them between Washington, D.C. and the Xavier Institute. Injured, she mentally calls out to Emma Frost, breaking Emma's concentration to the fight between a group of X-Men and the Marauders.
Later, back at the mansion, she is with several other students and Beast when Predator X attacks several students outside, then changes tactics to go after the weaker wounded students in the infirmary. Pixie, realizing that X-23 had killed this type of creature before, attempts to teleport Predator X to X-23's location, but mistakenly takes the majority of the students and Beast along with her and the creature, dropping them in the middle of the X-Men's fight with the Marauders on Muir Island.
During the fight, Pixie is brutally beaten by the Malice-possessed Omega Sentinel, who taunts Pixie until she suddenly stabs and incapacitates Malice with her souldagger.
She is later seen being consoled by Mercury after Professor X is shot and mortally wounded.
