Melly Minch (Earth 42711)

Early Life
Melly was born on November 1st, 1998, in a hospital located somewhere in the United States. Her parents, Martha and Matthew Minch, were both mutants, and moonlighted as roaming vigilantes. This habit often saw them at odds with the local law enforcement, forcing them to move frequently to keep the retaliation they received away from their child. Shortly before Melly turned five, the Minches settled in a small town a short distance from New York City, with both Matthew and Martha agreeing to cease being vigilantes and settle for good, finally giving their daughter some stability.

This, however, would not prove to be a long-lived sacrifice on their part.

In 2005, an invasion of New York City by the Chitauri took place. While Melly was at school during the event, both of her parents had gone to spend the day in New York, and thus participated in the defense of the city. This garnered the notice of Professor Xavier and the X-Men, who invited the couple to join their organization. Readily accepting the offer, the Minches relocated to Xavier's Mansion.
