>> —! EARLY LIFE !→
The soul twin brother of Tommy Shepherd, and soul child of Wanda and the Vision. His soul was transferred into the body of Billy Kaplan, an already living, then 16-year old son of Rebecca and Jeff Kaplan, and brother of two younger brothers. He didn’t find out about his powers until he confronted his long term high school bully, John Kesler. During this, Billy almost killed him. He worked for the Avengers since he was 16, during which he was engaged to his then boyfriend, Teddy Altman.As said before, Billy was bullied through highschool because of his fanboyness and for his, apparent obvious homosexuality. He usually did nothing to stop these bullies, until he met the Scarlet Witch out the front of the Avengers mansion, who healed his wounds and gave him some advice, however this contributed to the emergence of his powers, coming out as eletrokinesis.>> —! YOUNG AVENGERS !→
With these newfound powers, Billy had been asked to join Iron Lad's Young Avengers, as he had been listed in Visions Avengers Fail-Safe Program. Being the fan boy he is and with his powerset of Electric Manipulation, he decided to take after the avenger, Thor. Taking up the position of Asgardian. This was short lived as his team mates suggested the name of Wiccan after Iron lad had left them and though Captain America had warned them against continuing their superhero behavior and putting people in danger. And they obviously did not listen. During his time, Billy had met Hulkling or Teddy Altman who soon became his boyfriend. The young avengers kept up their superhero activities and met up often. Before one of these meetings, Billy had attempted to tell his parents he was a superhero, however his parents had interpreted this as Billy coming out to them. Fortunately they were very happy for him and approved of his boyfriend. Remaining unaware of the boy's superhero status, did not last long as the Super Skull blew up their house in order to kidnap Teddy. This ended in the death of Teddy’s mother and outed the boys as superheroes and the dangers of this. Teddy disappeared from the house, prompting the young avengers to attempt to resume him. Using the Avengers Fail-Safe program led them to a superpowered juvenile detention facility where he met his reincarnated brother, Tommy Shepherd. His teammate, Cassie Lang had pointed out that they could have been twins. They rescued Teddy and discovered he and Tommy’s possible connections to the Scarlet Witch.He and the other young avengers had been arrested during the Civil War, he was forced to teleport the entire prisoner bus to safety. He met the runaways during the events of the civil war, attempting to help them, only ending up in a fight. Moments after the fight had ended, the two groups were attacked by a hypnotized Marvel Boy. Billy was captured along with Hulkling, becoming prisoners of the Warden and was forced to watch his boyfriend be cut open for the Warden's sadistic pleasure, while he was cut off from hearing himself and unable to perform his spells as a downside. Forced to listen to the sick dialogue of the Warden. Once freed by Xavin of the runaways, Teddy had to stop Billy from killing the WardenAfter this, Billy and the rest of the young avengers returned back to Cap’s team in the Civil war. He and Cloak were one of the first to go down, as Spider man and Iron man wanted to knock out the two heroes with Teleportation powers. Billy was captured and kept in Prison 42, but was later freed in the raid led by Captain America. Billy decided to search for his possible past incarnation's mother, Wanda, first going with Tommy to search Genosha and Wundagore and then the former home of the Scarlet Witch but found nothing leading towards her whereabouts. Wiccan saved his boyfriend from being executed and rescued him from the Skrulls during a secret invasion.During a battle with the Son of the Serpent’s, Wiccan had an emotionally-driven power overload after his boyfriend’s life had been threatened. This power overload had disarmed a nuclear bomb and knocked out the remaining 20 members of the Sons of the Serpent. Due to this the avengers decided to keep him under supervision with Hulkling in a prison cell. Speed broke them out only minutes after they arrived. Magneto had come to meet the boys, resulting in a battle with the Young Avengers and Magento against the Avengers, saved only by Billy teleporting them away. They met Quicksilver and found out the Wanda he thought was his sister was nothing but a doombot. Billy snuck off on his own to Latveria.There he found an amnesiac Wanda, who was engaged to Doctor Doom. Doom knew Billy was there and promptly stripped him of his powers and kept him hostage. The other young avengers, Magneto and Quicksilver attempted to rescue him but were kept up by the Avengers. Wanda rescued Billy, trying to figure out her past, but they were met with the battle. Right before Logan could kill Billy, Iron lad came back to protect Billy. Iron lad took Wanda and the Young Avengers to the past, meeting the Jack of hearts. This made Wanda start to remember who she was and her powers returned to her. With these powers back, she pulled the Young avengers, herself and Scott Lang to the present. Then, finally confirming that Wiccan and Speed were her sons. This leads them back to Doom's castle and Billy regains his powers. The three magic uses intended to perform a ritual to undo the effects of M-Day, however interrupted by Patriot, left Doctor Doom with Wanda’s powers.Doom had plans to turn the world into a utopia that he ruled. The X-men, Avengers, and Young Avengers worked together to defeat him, and unfortunately lost Cassie during the fight. Doom lost his powers as he overloaded them. Iron Lad tried to take Cassie into the future to save her life but Vision refused to allow him, resulting in his destruction. Wiccan tried to stop Iron lad from leaving but Nate left, back into the time stream. After this Billy fell into a deep depression, the young avengers disbanded. Billy stayed in his room for seemingly months until Hulkling pulled him out of it with a proposal. Captain America called them to the Avengers mansion not long after, and officially made the young avengers official avengers.After a while in retirement, Billy had attempted to bring Teddy’s mother back to life, however he brought Mother into their world. Mother was an International Parasite. This was due to Loki’s influence, however, they did not know of this and decided to team up with Loki. Loki’s plan was to control Billy and use him once he reached his destined omnipotence as the Demiurge. The couple followed Loki and escaped Mother for the time being. Soon American Chavez, Kate and Noh-Varr joined them. As their deceased parents joined Mother and started to attack them. Wiccan had been coerced into giving Loki his power temporarily, but Loki had just ran off with his powers, leaving him powerless. (Suicide TW START) Thanks to Loki pointing out that if Billy died, the curse would be lifted, Wiccan attempted to end his own life, only for Loki to stop him just in time. (Suicide TW END) Loki used Billy’s powers to boost the Young avengers abilities and returned them to Billy. They escaped Mother and her army, and were told to stay away from any place their parents could be or where they had died. They decided to stick together and travel the universe.Loki trained Billy through the next few months, preparing him to fight against mother, wanting to regain their trust. Prodigy soon joined their team, informing them of Speed’s kidnapping. The young avengers accidentally entered Mothers dimension and were chased through it. Accidentally leaving Prodigy and Hulkling behind. Which led to Prodigy kissing Hulking, the others were busy finding Alternative, evil versions of themselves to distract Mother with which they escaped. Not long after, Hulkling left the team. Needing to figure out if he loved Billy or if it was a result of his magic, however during this time, Hulkling was tricked to return to New York and was threatened by Mother, threatening to release the evil young Avengers onto the world.Meanwhile, Billy was still not strong enough to end Mother’s curse. Loki suggested that he would be able to if he was older. Though hesitant, Billy eventually aged Loki up into a Young adult. Loki’s plan did not work and had to revert to the second plan. Making Billy the Demiurge. Other teenage superheroes were called in to fight the evil young avengers so the Young Avengers could fight off Mother. Billy couldn’t tap into Demiurge's power, however once Teddy was able to comfort and repair their relationship, Billy met his full potential. Destroying Mother.>> —!NEW AVENGERS !→

They disbanded the New avengers to focus on their own lives.>> —! STRIKE FORCE !→Wiccan was one of the heroes who was set up by the Vridal. Wanting to clear his name, along with the others in the team, Wiccan joined STRIKEFORCE. He was upset at not being able to visit his fiance, Teddy. He helped find the Vridal a new home, on Deadpools Monster Island. He was offered to become a permanent member of the STRIKEFORCE… and offer he refused, stating that he missed Teddy and wanted to go home to his fiance>> —! EMPYRE !→Billy returned from his adventures with the Strikeforce, Hulkling informed him that he had to go to space to become the king of the Kree/Skrull alliance. However the Alliance forbid Billy and Teddy’s relationship as Billy was not A Kree nor Skrull. The two of them rushed a wedding in Vegas with the little time they had left, and then Teddy left for Space.Teddy was abducted by his own grandmother during a battle with the Cotati who were invading earth. His Grandmother, R'Klll, impersonated Teddy and started making decisions that Teddy had been refusing to make.

Billy’s power makes him a very adaptable fighter and that much is true about him in his personal life. Billy can roll with the punches of life and make it work for himself. Billy is highly empathetic and does his best to feel for others, and uses his powers to help his loved ones.Billy can sometimes be careless and impulsive, not thinking his actions through before acting on his purely impulsive thoughts. He is moody and insecure, often accidentally using his powers to effect the world around him due to his insecurities. Billy is a very cynical young man, who doesn’t trust easily. He questions a lot of people’s motivations and alliances when they do even the smallest thing against him or his friends. Billy is fiercely loyal and will throw out any amount of self preservation to protect his friends and family.
