History Characters / XMenArakko

* MirrorCharacter: Is essentially this to the council of the nation of Krakoa (although the great ring came first chronologically). Being a collection of well respected, powerful and influential mutants that occupy similarly designated sections of the council that denote their unique places and roles, with special exceptions given to the mutant island itself and its speaker. Alongside having, in essence, the near the exact same first three laws save for the second, which is “destroy our enemies”. Of course, considering all the alternate future reality knowledge that went into making the nation of Krakoa, this all might have been intentional.

** In the finale of X-men Red [[spoiler: Xilo forcefully merges with Ora Serrata to make it clear that Genesis' war was built on a lie and must end.]]

* RightForTheWrongReasons: After her defeat by Storm she sets out to go after Orchis, reasoning that they need to be destroyed. Not because they’re genocidal, fascistic, racists, but because she feels humiliated by her loss to Storm and needs a scapegoat. The people who sent her after Storm will do.

* EyeScream: [[spoiler: In the final battle of the Genesis War, Roberto Da Costa blinds her with a post from Khora.]]

* EvilCounterpart: To Nightcrawler, Kurt is one of Krakoa's spiritual leaders, he encourages worship of any God one chooses and since being on the Island has taught a philosophy of trying new things, adapting and evolving. She is a NayTheist who enforces a law preventing Arakii's from worshiping Gods and has been responsible for the execution of many. She believes [[spoiler:[[EvilReactionary the eternal war is what defines Arakko and goes out of her way to make her people reject their new life and fall back on old ways so she can eventually lead them back to Amenth]]]]. Kurt clashes with the rest of the [[NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering Quiet Council of Krakoa]] because his progressive ideals clash with their SmugSuper and/or ControlFreak natures whereas she wishes the Great Ring of Arakko would double down more on their ProudWarriorRace philosophy and be less open to change.

* FusionDance: [[spoiler:Xilo forcefully merges with Ora in the finale of X-men Red, giving birth to Xilora]]

* YesMan: The only one who didn’t need a push from the Annihilation helm to be swayed to Genesis’s side. For all he boasts about how he sees all sides of an argument, he invariably agrees with Genesis' decisions. [[spoiler:He even continues fighting after Genesis has been defeated and has to be talked down by Xilora.]]

* AloofAlly: He only agrees to join the Horsemen if they beg him for his help. He also only fights against Gorgon himself after War begs him to as well. He's entirely uncaring of Arakko's goals and in fact is holding a grudge over being left to fight constantly for thousands of years by them.

* BadBoss: Not above threatening to decapitate his champions for showing fear although, given the nature of his powers, this is slightly less of a punishment than usual.

* RetGone: Apparently this is his mutant power. We don’t see it in action but if he tastes an opponent’s blood or flesh, he can erase them from existence.

* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Lodus Logos catches Pollux off guard in the final battle of the Genesis war, spitting high-velocity metal blades at her. A single panel shows them [[BoomHeadshot removing the back of her head]]]].
** [[spoiler: Subverted as she somehow survived. [[AnArmAndALeg She did loose an arm though.]]]]

** [[spoiler: Subverted as she somehow survived. [[AnArmAndALeg She did loose an arm though.]]

* LightIsNotGood: Wears a white armor and his sword is named Purity, yet he's often far from nice, or helpful.

* GoodScarsEvilScars: [[spoiler:In the final page of X-men Red's finale, Genesis can be seen with almost half of her face having burn scars.]]

* SuperiorSuccessor: Inverted. It's stated in ''ComicBook/MarvelComicsOneThousand'' that Apocalypse sees his children as the best horsemen he ever had with all who followed being [[InadequateInheritor Inadequate Inheritors]] of their titles - only Archangel, (who, not coincidentally, is blatantly Apocalypse's favourite of all his Earth horsemen and the only to succeed him) really measures up. It's implied that since these were his children, the rest of the horsemen were ReplacementGoldfish, as EvenEvilHasLovedOnes applies to Apocalypse - he nearly breaks down when he sees them again.

* YourSizeMayVary: In X-Men Red 14 he was only slightly taller than Jon Ironfire, while in 18 he is a giant compared to the latter.

* MysteriousPast: The exact origins of Annihilation are as yet unclear. ''Heralds of Apocalypse'' gives only a vague statement about it being possibly a product of the "anti-tree", suggesting it comes from one of Marvel's ''many'' Hell like dimensions, and in ''X-Men: Red'' Storm notes there's something "''adversarial''" about it, but the wording is vague enough it might just mean antagonistic, not related to ''The'' Adversary.

* CurbStompBattle: Challenges Storm to battle for her seat which does not go well for him.

* EyeSceam: [[spoiler: In the final battle of the Genesis War, Roberto Da Costa blinds her with a post from Khora.]]

* Eyeore: [[spoiler: In the final battle of the Genesis War, Roberto Da Costa blinds her with a post from Khora.]]

* FusionDance: [[spoiler:Xilo forcefully merges with Ora in the finale of X-men Red.]]

He allies with Genesis during the Arakkii civil war, despite repeated attempts to bring him to Storm's side.

* PsiBlast: Cones in the form of psychic stars he can throw at people.

* TeamSwitzerland: [[spoiler:In the end he doesn't commit to Genesis. He is nowhere to be seen during the final battle and according to Storm he became a hermit in the depths.]]

* YesMan: The only one who didn’t need a push from the Annihilation helm to be swayed to Genesis’s side. For all he boasts about how he sees all sides of an argument, he invariably agrees with Genesis' decisions.

* FusionDance: In the BadFuture of ''ComicBook/SinsOfSinister'', Xilo had fused with Cable, replacing his techno-organic body parts with their worms. In the present, Xilo contemplates finding someone to merge with once the Genesis War starts, [[spoiler:and chooses the Fisher King.]]

* TheAce: Isca is an Omega level mutant who has the power to always win. If it's within her power to do something, she will succeed, and if it isn't, she will switch sides to make sure she still wins. Sunspot brilliantly ends up using this against her to get Magneto on the council. Sunspot bets her that Magneto's opponent will end up winning, Isca's powers kick in so she wins and Sunspot loses the bet. Cue Magneto crushing his opponent. The Fisher King pulls the same gambit on her, but far, far more brutally, laying down a challenge - the one who 'wins' is the one who better understands loss. Cue 10,000 years of trauma smacking her in the face and turning her into a BrokenAce.

* BlessedWithSuck: Her power to never lose may seem like an amazing ability at first, but in truth it has made her life into one of solitude as none of her allies, including her own sister Genesis, can trust her to fight alongside them in case Isca's power causes her to switch sides. This has led to centuries of isolation and bitterness building within Isca. As becomes clear, she also has no active control over her power, and therefore can't lose even if she ''wanted'' to. When the Fisher King finally forces her to confront this with a challenge of who better understands loss, she has a full on breakdown.

!!!'''First Appearance:''' ''ComicBook/XMenRed'' #13 (July, 2023)

* {{Ultraterrestrials}}: A civilization of Earth mutants that returned from an endless war against demons in a world between worlds that ended up colonizing the planet Mars, which is made the capital planet of the Solar System.

A new Okkara-like livin island that was born from a mutant-magic spell performed by Apocalypse, Storm, Vulcan, Orc, Sunfire, and Redroot
