Who did Mystica have a baby with? Does Storm have a child? Did Storm have children? Can a storm fly? Her mother, N'dare, was an African princess who married American photojournalist David Munroe and moved with him to Manhattan, where Ororo was born. When Ororo was six months old, she and her parents moved to Cairo, Egypt.

Five years later, during the Arab-Israeli conflict, a plane crashed into their home. Ororo's parents were killed, but she survived, buried under rubble near her mother's body. The resultant trauma left Ororo with severe claustrophobia that still affects her today. Ororo managed to escape the rubble of her shattered home with nothing but the tattered clothes on her back and her mother's ancestral ruby. Homeless and orphaned, Ororo was found by a gang of street urchins who took her to their master, Achmed el-Gibar.

Achmed trained Ororo in the arts of thievery and she soon became his prize pupil, excelling in picking both pockets and locks. During her time in Cairo, Ororo picked the pocket of an American tourist. The man proved no easy mark, however, as he was Charles Xavier, a powerful mutant telepath who used his abilities to stop the theft. At that moment, Xavier was psionically attacked by another mutant and Ororo used the opportunity to escape.

Years later, feeling a strong urge to wander south, Ororo left Cairo. Forced to defend herself, Ororo killed the man. From that moment, she swore never to take another human life. Ororo wandered for thousands of miles, almost dying during her trek across the Sahara Desert. Her mutant ability to psionically control the weather emerged soon after, and she was able to use them to rescue T'Challa , a prince of the African nation of Wakanda, from his would-be kidnappers.

The pair spent much time together; however, T'Challa's duties as a prince prevented them from further exploring their burgeoning mutual attraction. Finally, Ororo reached her ancestors' homeland on the Serengeti Plain in Kenya. She was taken in by an elderly tribal woman named Ainet who taught her to be responsible with her powers.

Ororo soon came to be the object of worship of the local tribes who believed her to be a goddess due to her gift. Years later, Ororo was forced to battle the threat of a fellow mutant weather manipulator known as Deluge, who sought revenge against humanity. With the help of several members of the team of mutant heroes known as the X-Men, Deluge was seemingly destroyed and Ororo returned to her life amongst the tribal people.

Even as a member of the X-Men, the idea of being buried alive would remain her greatest fear, and it would stand as one of her very few weaknesses, causing her to be paralyzed in horror even in the heat of battle. Eventually, after working through it, the fear would become less intense, but she still definitely prefers being out in the open. After fleeing from the site of her parents' deaths, and presumably being thought dead herself in the carnage that followed the crash, Ororo found herself homeless on the streets.

Fortunately — for certain definitions of "fortunate" — she was taken in by someone who not only gave her a home but taught her a skilled trade that would provide for her in the present and come in handy in her future career as a super-powered adventurer.

Achmed was essentially Cairo's equivalent of Fagin from Oliver Twist , a thief who employed an army of pickpocketing urchins to gather up ill-gotten goods, primarily pilfered from Cairo's many tourists. Storm, whose brilliant mind was already on display even at a young age, was a natural, and she took to the trade so quickly that she soon became one of Ahchmed's most skilled proteges.

Even once she'd left the life of petty crime that marked her youth behind, she'd continue to use those experiences. For example, her costume is often portrayed as having a hidden set of lockpicks, tools that are especially useful for someone with a particular distaste for being trapped.

In the kind of coincidence that happens a lot for the X-Men, one of the tourists unlucky enough to have his pocket picked by Ororo was, of course, Charles Xavier. Naturally, she didn't get away with this one — mind-readers are, after all, pretty difficult to trick — but despite the fact that he immediately recognized her as a mutant, Xavier didn't offer to take her in and train her to be part of his first class of X-Men.

Instead, he was distracted by Cairo's reigning criminal kingpin, Amahl Farouk, who was serving as the human host for the sinister villain called the Shadow King, one of Marvel's scariest villains. Both Xavier and the Shadow King took notice of Ororo at this time, with the Shadow King marking her as a potential victim and tool for future evil and Xavier filing her away as a potential recruit. After spending years as a thief on the streets of Cairo, Ororo decided to leave the city, feeling what's usually described in the comics as an irresistible urge to wander south in search of her mother's homeland.

The trip took her across the Sahara desert, and while she didn't initially find a new home, she did find someone else who was exploring the world for the first time.

His name was T'Challa, and as you may already know, he would grow up to become the Black Panther. Before he could take up the Black Panther identity and become a king, though, he had to go through a rite of passage, doing his own bit of wandering outside Wakanda as a teenager.

While he was doing that, he stumbled across a young girl who was being kidnapped, and after he rescued her, she turned the tables, rescuing him by using her brand new mutant abilities to control the weather. Over the next few weeks, Ororo and T'Challa would quickly fall in love and begin the kind of passionate romance that only two super-powered teenagers with zero parental supervision can have. Sadly, it didn't last. While their feelings for each other were still very strong, T'Challa's duty to Wakanda came first, and he eventually had to return to his homeland alone.

This wouldn't be the last time they encountered each other, though, and it definitely wouldn't be the end of their romance. After her brief adventures with the future Black Panther, Ororo would finally make it to her mother's home in Kenya, where she was taken in by a woman named Ainet. Ainet would develop a very close bond with the young mutant, and she would regard her as a daughter until she died. Everyone else in their village, however, regarded Ororo as something very different — a literal goddess.

It's not hard to imagine why. By this point, Ororo's powers had fully manifested, and even without any training, her innate control over the weather was a staggering sight to behold. Perhaps surprisingly, worshiping a teenager as a god actually worked out pretty well for everyone involved. Even though Ororo came to believe it herself, she used her powers benevolently, helping out not just the group that had taken her in but the entire surrounding area.

Eventually, of course, someone came along to tell her differently. Charles Xavier, having lost his original students after sending them on a mission to the living island of Krakoa — and having secretly lost a second team that he sent after them, which we wouldn't find out about until — was putting together a new group of mutants for a rescue mission. Thanks to plenty of people talking about the living goddess who was controlling the weather, he didn't have any trouble tracking down the kid he'd met in Cairo all those years ago.

He informed her that she wasn't, in fact, a goddess rude but a mutant, and that her powers could be better used by blowing up giant purple robots with lightning bolts. Shockingly, Ororo agreed, and she took the codename Storm as a member of the all-new X-Men.

While she initially had a little bit of difficulty fitting in with the other X-Men largely due to the fact that she kept walking around without any clothes on , Storm quickly acclimated to a life of superheroics as the most powerful member of the team. In fact, after Cyclops left the X-Men after Jean Grey was executed on the moon for the crime of planetary genocide — you know, X-Men stuff — Storm was named the leader, without any argument from the rest of the team. Sadly, Storm's initial tenure as leader was marked largely by stories about various supervillains having a crush on her, notably including Doctor Doom and Dracula — yes, Dracula — and Ororo having to rebuke their unwanted affections.

Doom, as you might expect, didn't respond well to this, and he tried to control Storm by trapping her in her own body via turning her into "living chrome," which triggered her claustrophobia to the point that she conjured up a hurricane that nearly wiped Latveria off the map.

Dracula didn't fare much better in the "romance" department, but he did succeed in briefly turning Storm into a vampire in an attempt to make her his latest bride. The curse was broken by Kitty Pryde, but it did lead to stories of another reality where Storm went full- Twilight on everyone, taking the admittedly over-the-top but still pretty awesome new name of "Bloodstorm.
