History: Life eventually settled down to the point where Scott Summers and Jean Grey were able to have a child, a red-haired daughter whom it only seemed natural to name Rachel. She and the Rachel Summers from the Days of the Future Past timeline proved to be genetically similar enough to either be twins or counterparts, though it was uncertain which it was.
Rachel grew up in the X-Mansion surrounded by some of the best family and friends it was possible for a girl to have. When she was five, she "married" Misha, nearly causing her father to have a heart-attack. By the time she was twelve, her mutant powers had begun to manifest. By the time she was sixteen, she had qualified for basic field status with the younger X-Men squadron. Her closest friendships were, naturally enough, with the children of the other founding X-Men. Her relationship with her cousin Andrew is strained, owing to her father's own strained relationship with Alex.
Rachel was one of several Xaiver's students influenced by Nightmare and rescued by Lucas. Her own dream dealt with becoming the Dark Phoenix and destroying not only her friends, but also the entire world. Lucas was able to talk her out of her fears by reminding her that the Phoenix was just as much a force for Life as it was for Death and that she should be proud to be the inheritor of such a legacy. Following this, Rachel's power levels increased, mental blocks she did not even know she possessed tumbling down.
As one of the four "White Knights" chosen by Iason to battle the Horsemen of Apocalypse, Rachel battled Death. During this battle, her injuries and the dire situation worked together to allow her to briefly tap into the Phoenix Force and fall under its influence to defeat the Horseman. Though she has been unable to call upon it again since, what it means in the long run is unknown.
Rachel was later one of several X-Men gathered by Starbridge to protect the Shi'ar throneworld from Galactus. During that time, she fully manifested as the Phoenix, turning back the Devourer of Worlds. The Shi'ar, while grateful not to be dead, were also operating on orders to capture and contain the Phoenix. She very nearly destroyed the planet herself, if not for the psychic intervention of Starbridge and her teammates. Rachel rejected the majority of the Phoenix Force and its influence over her, while still retaining a measure of enhanced power. The Force still holds some sway over her and has been known to manifest in times of great stress.
Most recently, Rachel became the object of the romantic feelings of several of the Xaiver's boys. Following an attempt by Mojo to make a reality show out of it, Rachel has expressed her own feelings for Starbridge, the son of Professor Xavier and Empress Lilandra.
Powers: : Like her mother before her, Rachel's primary mutant ability is telekinesis. She is capable of moving matter with her mind, the exact limits of which are currently untested. She can use her abilities to fly and carry others, as well as act more directly through bolts of telekinietc force and telekinetic force fields. With the power of the Phoenix boosting her abilities, even without accepting the fullest measure of it, Rachel's abilities are significantly enhanced, enabling her to even use molecular telekinesis.
With her telepathy unlocked to greater levels, Rachel is capable of mind to mind communication, reading thoughts, probing minds, and even altering memories or assuming control of another mind.
When she uses her abilities for anything more than low-level effects, a glowing fiery Phoenix emblem appears over her eye.
