%%* RubberMan: He possessed approximately six feet of extra skin. He was capable of stretching, deforming, wrapping, expanding, and compressing this extra amount of epidermis, but with many more limitations than other examples. In addition, he had very little elasticity, and his bones remained solid and couldn't be reshaped. He could never turn into a bouncing ball; even if he could reshape himself enough for that, he wouldn't bounce.

* SecondLove: During the ''incalculable'' amount of time they've spent trapped inside the Vault, Synch and X-23 became a steadfast BattleCouple whose relationship ended in tragedy when Laura was forced to make a HeroicSacrifice to ensure Everett could escape the Vault in time for Professor X to psionically download his consciousness for the resurrection protocol. Meaning that while Everett remembers everything they've went through together from start to finish, [[AmnesiacLover Laura doesn't remember a single thing about the love they had]] due to being resurrected from a back-up taken from before their mission into the Vault. This, understandably, leaves Synch entirely conflicted in regards how he can even approach her again. He finally reunites with her in issue #17 of the 2021 X-men series.

* BerserkButton: Hurting her brother, Cannonball - which is understandable considering what happened to their other brother. This isn't seen often, since Cannonball, being an extremely experienced superhero and NighInvulnerable when using his powers, is rarely hurt. However, a brutally powerful OffhandBackhand from a deeply unimpressed Characters/MarvelComicsXMan did the job, and left Paige outright furious (and ludicrously far out of her weight class, but that's another matter).

Jubilee, an Asian-American teenage mutant, was a member of the X-Men who could release colorful explosive plasmoids and detonate matter at a sub-atomic level. After joining the X-Men team in the 1980s, she became something of a replacement for ComicBook/KittyPryde, serving as ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}'s young, female sidekick. After Logan leaves the X-Men due to losing his adamantium skeleton, Jubilee has trouble coping with the stress of missions without him. Banshee takes notice and invites her to join Generation X.

->See Characters/XMen2000sMembers* BarbieDollAnatomy: She's naked when using her powers.
* BareYourMidriff: Her current X-Men uniform leaves her midriff exposed.

This isn't seen often, since Cannonball, being an extremely experienced superhero and NighInvulnerable when using his powers, is rarely hurt. However, a brutally powerful OffhandBackhand from a deeply unimpressed Characters/MarvelComicsXMan did the job, and left Paige outright furious (and ludicrously far out of her weight class, but that's another matter).
* BrokenBird: During ''Wolverine & the X-Men'', when she's suffering from outright personality shifts every time she husks thanks to problems with her powers, and had unresolved depression problems relating to the death of her younger brother, Jay Guthrie. She eventually pulled a FaceHeelTurn, before realising what was happening to her and getting help.
* DeepSouth: Like her brother, she's from Kentucky.
* FaceHeelTurn: When she joined the Hellfire Academy [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity thanks to her powers affecting her mental state]]. She pulled HeelFaceTurn soon enough afterwards.
* FunetikAksent: She slips into a Kentucky accent when scared or stressed.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Husk was revealed as this. Her brother was already the super-hero Cannonball, and she tried everything she could to get mutant powers to develop, almost killing herself a few times. Finally she just about gave up, crying and clenching herself... when her skin started flaking off like old wallpaper. She ripped and shredded and tore herself up, which for anyone else would have been scary as hell, but for her, it was the happiest moment of her life.
* KidAppealCharacter: Initially.
* MagicPants: Husk has the ability to transform her skin into any material she can think of, but she must tear off the existing layer to do so. This results in her being naked a fair amount of the time, but {{censor steam}} is omitted in some scenes where her new skin serves the purpose of a costume. She has specifically refused to revert to her human form on occasions because of her nudity.
* MayDecemberRomance:
** A relatively low key version for this trop, considering the age gap was only about 15 years, but for a while, she was in a relationship with Archangel. This has since fallen by the wayside.
** She also dated Toad briefly, though that was a mutually toxic relationship partially inspired by her damaged mental state and Toad's desire for affection from anyone. He put her on a pedestal and kept her husks to have tea parties with, and her power-related mental instability had her lashing out at everyone around her - particularly Toad, the X-Men's perennial ButtMonkey.
* PowerIncontinence: Her power depends on her mental state, and when she's not entirely stable (which her powers can contribute to), she ends up manifesting a patchwork of skins, as her character image shows.
* TookALevelInJerkass: During ''Wolverine and the X-Men'', due to unresolved trauma over her brother's death, depression, and her powers affecting her sanity, leading to a temporary FaceHeelTurn.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Her powers destabilise her mind for a period during ''Wolverine and the X-Men''.

* BackFromTheDead: He was killed by Harpoon of the Marauders while burning them to death for killing several Morlocks, but was returned to life a few months later by the Five on the newly founded mutant nation of Krakoa.
* BadassLongcoat: He is quite fond of them, and most of his official X-Men uniforms include a longcoat.
* BlessedWithSuck: Chamber's mutation gave him the ability to emit fire from his mouth and chest area. His inability to turn it off eventually completely destroyed his lower jaw and most of his chest. He didn't really feel any pain from it, but he's still missing his jaw and has a nearly completely exposed ribcage.
* BreathWeapon: Though he can't turn it off and it caused him to lose his lower jaw.
* BroughtDownToNormal: Lost his powers and his deformity during the Decimation.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Jubilee in the [[ComicBook/GenerationX2017 2017 Generation X series]]. They share a kiss at one point, along with other tender scenes. In the final chapter, Paige tells him that he and Jubilee look good together. The current status of their relationship is unclear since his death at the hands of Harpoon and subsequent revival on Krakoa.
%%* DisabilitySuperpower: See BlessedWithSuck.
%%* EnergyBeing: Very, very heavily implied.
* HandicappedBadass: He's lost most of his lower jaw and chest, but he's a competent fighter in spite of his injuries.
* HowDoIShotWeb: He would be able to reconstruct his face, if he knew how.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: After losing a huge amount of his body, you can't blame him.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Through character development.
* LukeIAmYourFather: He's a distant descendant of Apocalypse, and post-Decimation he got the markings to prove it (turns out they were always there; he blew out everything from mouth-level to midriff, and didn't get healed until some years later, real-world time. To everyone's shock, he was restored with... an Apocalypse-like jaw and the markings of Apocalypse's followers on his chest. He basically said something to the effect of "When did I ever ''ask'' to be healed?").
* MakeMeWannaShout: During his brief stint with the ComicBook/NewWarriors, Jono wore a sonic rig that could turn sound into energy constructs.
* PowerDegeneration: He had an explosive power that blew off his jaw and upper chest prior to joining the team. Using his power slowly widened the explosive area, he near literally had part of his face and chest "on fire".
* PowerLimiter: During his time with Generation X, it was hinted a (and even explicitly stated in a novel by writer Creator/ScottLobdell ) that he was only ever accessing a fraction of his true potential, which is something approaching the level of [[Characters/MarvelComicsXMan X-Man]] or [[ComicBook/JeanGrey Phoenix]]. The reason for why he doesn't seems to be psychological. However, this has never been fully explored since Lobdell left the X-Books.
* PsychicPowers: He needs them to talk.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: Not needing to eat, breathe or drink as well as communicating telepathically. In fact, his name comes from the fact that he is a ''chamber'' for raw psionic energy. (The fire being ''psionic'' energy is also why he gets thought speak... which is actually a ''really'' fine-tune use of his power for someone who otherwise can only blow things up with it.)
* StatusQuoIsGod: Both were brought back during the "Age Of X" storyline (Thanks to a RealityWarper), and remained even after things were returned to normal.
