Phantasma

Samantha Stone (formerly Carpenter) (Phantasma) 

History

Samantha was born in Boston, Massachusetts to Emma Frost during a period of homelessness in Emma's life. Sam's father was believed to be the wealthy industrialist Tony Stark, but was later revealed to be Mystique in disguise. Mystique fooled Emma and managed to make off with some of the Frost family fortune. Emma found herself pregnant, and gave birth to a daughter she named Grace Christina. Emma dropped the baby off at a Christian orphanage in Boston. The baby was given the name Samantha Carpenter--Samantha as he female version of Samuel meaning "heard God's word", and Carpenter for Jesus' profession.

Sam spent many mostly unhappy years under the tutelage of nuns at the orphanage. When her mutant ability was revealed at the age of 14, it was accompanied by blue skin and yellow eyes. The nuns at the school were convinced that Sam was some kind of demon. Fortunately, Professor X arranged for Sam to be transferred to his school as a ninth grader. By this time, Sam had harnessed her impressive psychic potential by unconsciously forcing others to see her as normal.

When the students were assigned to squads, Sam joined Professor X's own Acolytes. When he left before her senior year, Sam's team was taken over by Emma Frost and renamed the Hellions. While a student at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Sam focused on training her telekinetic abilities and her psychic abilities remained untapped.

In her senior year, Sam was forced to become a temporary member of Xavier's school staff after The Travelers removed the remaining adult staff members. During this time, Sam was a member of the New X-Men. She helped defeat several threats, including a Sentinel (later revealed to be activated by The Travelers), a Brood attack (sent by The Travelers), an incursion by the mutant terrorist Mystique and her Brotherhood of Mutants, and a future version of Danger.

As a staff member at Academy X and a member of the eXaults team, Sam helped confront Mystique's students at Academy M and a group known as The Purifiers.
