History Characters / XMenOrchis

* OrcusOnHisThrone: As an Omega Sentinel, Karima would be powerful enough that if she really set her mind to it, she could probably wipe out most of the X-Men on her own. However, she barely lifts a finger. [[spoiler:Because as it turns out she couldn't give a wet slap about humanity either.]]

* CategoryTraitor: Orchis has a number of mutants who joined such Judas Traitor and later on Sebastian Shaw and Selene.

* OutOfFocus: [[spoiler:Did basically nothing between 2022's Inferno and his death in April of 2024.]]

* TheJuggernaut: Partially due to being CrazyPrepared at the Hellfire Gala, nobody can even put a dent on him. He kills several mutants, tanks two Omegas and [[WorfEffect worfs]] Cain Marko, a man literally named the Juggernaut, to drive it home.

* NiceGuy: Despite working for Orchis, he's a pretty cool guy, a loving husband, and doesn't even seem to hate mutants much at first. In a lot of ways, he serves to demonstrate that not all of Orchis is evil, and that their actions are not entirely unreasonable.

* DeathOfPersonality: What being turned into a Prime Sentinel was meant to do. [[spoiler:Seems to have happened again with the possession by an alternate future version of herself.]]

* FaceHeelTurn: Omega Sentinel was once a member of the X-Men, but now works ''against'' them as part of Orchis in the name of humanity's interests. It's suggested that the reason is due to the mutants' acting in a xenophobic manner that worries the public; Omega Sentinel, despite having been an X-Man, is ''not'' a mutant and was not given the right to be on the island. Though, considering all the moral ambiguity at play, HazyFeelTurn might be the accurate trope in the present. In the ''future'', however, this is in full effect as Omega Sentinel has become a straight-up villain. [[spoiler:The future Omega Sentinel and the one associated with Orchis is not the Karima that we all know, but a person who was sent back in time to stop mutantkind's ascendancy, hence her apparent FaceHeelTurn.]]

* SnapBack: Karima was last seen having been made human again and abandoning the identity of Omega Sentinel. Yet, here she is again.
* SpockSpeak

* BadassNormal: Completely willing to fight a demon with an assault rifle.

** Claremont had it with a mix of abusive and neglectful, hating Proteus for the reasons behind his conception, which a fetal Proteus picked up on, then locking him up in a room for his entire life for his own good, then telling the X-Men to kill him because he was so evil and trying to do the deed herself.

** And the Krakoa era goes right back into abusive, avoiding him and never telling him she was alive, then when they do meet up again telling him she gives precisely zero shits about him.

* ImmortalGenius: ''ComicBook/XMen2019'' reveals that [[spoiler: she's actually a mutant blessed with BornAgainImmortality by way of GroundhogDayLoop. Not only is she a brilliant geneticist that even created a working cure for mutation in their third lifetime, but after opting to side with mutants instead, has been using the knowledge acquired over multiple lifetimes to benefit various influential figures - including Professor X, Magneto, and even Apocalypse.]]
* InNameOnly: She was adapted into the ''Film/XMenFilmSeries'', but in a ''heavily'' reimagined role, being made an American CIA agent rather than a Scottish scientist - though the original timeline briefly featured her as a scientist, indicating she may have become a scientist in later life.

* StoryBreakerPower: Her mutant power only activates when she dies, and (supposedly) can only be used 10 times, so while it can't be abused it allows her to reshape the Marvel world very drastically. It allows her to do a MentalTimeTravel to back when she was on her mother's womb, and her many lives show that by making contacts with the right people, such as making Xavier take more extreme points of view or teaming up with Apocalypse, she manages to change the world in drastic ways. This is [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] however, because while she can reshape the path the world takes, she can't control everyone's actions, or predict how the rest of the world will react when she changes the status quo too much, so mutants lost in every life one of her attempts. Regardless, having a power like this is such a huge deal that at the end of [[ComicBook/Inferno2021 Inferno]] she was depowered, and just to make sure she doesn't get her powers back, she was killed in [[ComicBook/XLivesAndXDeathsOfWolverine X Deaths of Wolverine]], and a robot with her memories took her place, just so the X-Men have a villain who knows them too well, but who can't reset the world.

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: He's in charge of narrative enforcement which essentially translates to "make Orchis look good and mutants look bad", all through manipulation. So far this has come in the form of coordinating events to set mutants up.

* MadScientist: He was court-martialed for his extensive testing of the pain threshold's of A.I.
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Pretty much the question that came up in regards to his atrocities. His court-martial was indefinitely postponed for some reason he then was responsible for the deaths of several A.I. individuals during [[ComicBook/IronMan2020Event the A.I. uprising]].

A Variant of Madelyne Pryor from Earth-91240 and former Baroness of the Limbo Domain on Battleworld who survived its destruction and wound up on Earth 616 when the Multiverse was reborn.

* EvilTwin: To Maddy of 616 who was already an EvilTwin herself to Jean Grey but had recently performed a HeelFaceTurn. This one however got banished to Limbo and went insane.

* {{Cyborg}}: He was born blind and has cybernetic implants installed that allowed him to see in ultraviolet and infrared spectrums.

* SameCharacterButDifferent: Her return in [[ComicBook/DawnOfX Dawn of X]] changed her personality so much she isn't recognizable. Moira used to be a friendly TeamMom who cared greatly about the X-Men. After Dawn of X she's much more callous and pragmatic with her relationship with everyone else and may treat them as just tools. And while classic Moira isn't against fighting, she also was capable of talking things out, such as stopping Nate Grey's attack on Excalibur by ''scolding'' him, meanwhile, modern Moira is never shown considering solving things peacefully, to the point that when Magneto suggests allying with the machines in ''[[ComicBook/Inferno2021 Inferno]]'', she quickly shuts down the idea. It gets worse considering that since current 616 is her tenth life, it means all this time the personality she showed was only a facade, and yet this causes some serious cases of RetroactiveIdiotBall, such as how a data page from ''Powers of X'' #6 claims she searched for people who are a genetic match for her and Xavier to create powerful mutants, but that doesn't explain why she married Joe [=MacTaggert=] and stayed in an abusive marriage when all she wanted from him was have his child and nothing else.

* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: She arguably became one for [[Characters/JusticeLeagueOfAmericaAntagonist Maxwell Lord]]. Both were human allies for their respective teams, retconned into being born with powers (Mutant in Moira's case, metahuman in Maxwell's), got very different personalities after this retcon, and became BoomerangBigots.

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Even outside of [[spoiler:being used as pawns by the [[KillAllHumans anti-organic]] sentinels]], Orchis is pretty cavalier about sacrificing human lives as a false flag to discredit their enemies in their war against mutants ostensibly for human security.

** [[spoiler:His parents were mutants who loved him unconditionally. He resented them for being normal and cut ties with them because of it.]]

* MuggleBornOfMages: [[spoiler:His parents were mutants and he is human. His parents loved him to death and accepted him as he was, but he resented them for being normal.]]

** [[spoiler: Subverted with his true origin, which implies that he was lying about this: He cut ties with ''them'' because he resented being normal while they were both mutants.]]

'''Feilong:''' I don't know who they are, because I'm not old.

* TheJuggernaut: Partially due to being CrazyPrepared at the Hellfire Gala, nobody can even put a dent on him. He kills several mutants tanks two Omegas and [[WorfEffect worfs]] Cain Marko, a man literally named the Juggernaut, to drive it home.

* NoPlansNoPrototypeNoBackup: Her robotic body isn't technically an Omega Sentinel and it's actually an unique creation. She co-created with CEO Arnab Chakladar of the Epiphany corporation after holding him at gunpoint. The body was made from bits and pieces lying around his lab and the two of them were under the time constraints of getting ahead of her terminal cancer and the people hunting her down. Wolverine would lobotomize Arnab and his kids would destroy the lab to prevent new bodies from being made. That said, between Moira's own genius and Orchis's resources, she's been able to upgrade and even rebuild her body after Rogue ripped her apart.

* ChildByRape: It's implied that Proteus was conceived when Joseph had beaten her unconscious, then forced himself on her.

* AntiquatedLinguistics: When written by Clairmont, she could slip into this sometimes. People haven't said "yon" for a while now...

* FalseFlagOperation: His whole modus operandi. Orchis freed him to make what’s left of mutants look like terrorists to sway the public in Orchis’ favour.
* FantasticRacism: From his interaction with Cyclops to his FalseFlagOperation, he definitely hates mutants.
* LegacyCharacter: He’s not Cyclops. He’s the second person to take the mantle.
* ManipulativeBastard: Blob thinks he’s Cyclops. He is not. He’s an Orchis ally trying to make mutants look like terrorists. He’s also relying on Blob’s desire to avenge his people after what Orchis did to them at the 3rd Gala.
* WorfEffect: To show how dangerous he, is he beats Cyclops, even paralyzing him before even taking the suit. He later is able to match Steve Rogers in a fight, even breaking his arm.

A former S.H.E.I.L.D. and H.A.M.M.E.R.
Agent and robotics expert.
* MadScientist: He was court martialled for his extensive testing of the pain threshold’s of A.I.
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Pretty much the question that came up in regards to his atrocities. His court martial was indefinitely post phoned for some reason he then was responsible for the deaths of several A.I. individuals during [[ComicBook/IronMan2020Event The A.I. uprising]].

A sorceress working for Orchis

A Variant of Madelyne Pryor from
Earth-91240 and former Baroness of the Limbo Domain on Battleworld who survived its destruction and wound up on Earth 616 when the Multiverse was reborn.

A mid ranking Hydra Agent who Mikhail Rasputin planned to use to infiltrate Orchis via the Chronicler
* BeneathSuspicion: She’s just high ranking enough that to be in important Orchis situations but just low enough that no one will notice if she starts behaving differently while under the Chroniclers control.

* RoguesGalleryTransplant: ''ComicBook/InvincibleIronMan2022'' sees him become a threat to Tony Stark, after taking over what was once his company to build Sentinels. Downplayed as this is still to gain the resources to enhance sentinels with Iron Man technology, with the added bonus of [[EvilIsPetty sticking it to Stark]] and gaining him as an ArchEnemy.
