Kamala Khan is the youngest daughter of a Pakistani family that moved to the United States. She was born on American soil, more precisely in Jersey City.
However, even though she leads a western life, she constantly interacts with her culture. Both Kamala and her family are religious.
Among her hobbies are video games and writing fanfics about her favorite superheroes. Kamala is a big fan of Iron Man and Captain America, but especially Carol Danvers, Captain Marvel, the person who most inspires her life.
Like many teenage girls, Kamala also lives with the dramas of her age.
She wants to have fun and hang out with popular friends, but her culture and parents sometimes make it difficult.
One day, Kamala disobeyed her parents' orders and snuck out of the house to go to a party.
Although she had intended to have a good time, all she accomplished was being teased by her classmates.
Kamala knew when she was unwelcome and soon returned home. However, as she made her way home, she was enveloped by a mysterious mist that caused her to faint.
It was an earthly mist, a mutagenic substance that activates the powers of people possessing the inhuman gene, as Kamala's case described. The fog caused the girl to generate a cocoon where her body mutated.
While unconscious, Kamala had a vision of her favorite heroes, who scolded her for disobeying her parents and asked her what she wanted in life.
Kamala replied that she wanted to be beautiful, unique, a warrior, and less complicated. She wanted to be like Captain Marvel.
Upon waking up from her cocoon, Kamala saw that she had transformed into a younger version of Carol Danvers, wearing the uniform from when Danvers was still Ms. Marvel.
In addition, she noticed that she had gained the ability to alter her body in any way she wanted.
That same night, Kamala returned to the party and saved the girl who had taunted her earlier, preventing her from drowning in the lake.
