History Characters / JonathanHickmansXMen

* DidntSeeThatComing: After much monologuing at Logan and Moira, and boasting about he had see their attacks coming, Logan nails him to a tree.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: He tips Moira off to what the Technarx plan to do, allowing her to plan against it next time.

* AndIMustScream: As noted on the main page, his punishment is brutal.

* ArtificialHuman: X is seen growing mutants in pods.

* UnexplainedRecovery: Esme and Sophie have returned after having been dead for over a decade. It hasn't been stated as to how.

* SnapBack: Emma once again is just the White Queen of the Hellfire Club or as it is now known The Hellfire Corporation.

* TookALevelInJerkass: By 2109, Omega Sentinel is not simply against mutants due to their dangers, but rather she takes glee in killing mutants for the sake of it. Keep in mind that she was once part of the X-Men.

* BigGood: For the mutants. In Year 100, she keeps them safe in Shi'ar space.

* FantasticRacism: Keeps what remains of humankind in a preserve -- ''not'' for their benefit, but as a reminder for everyone else that they're bad.

!!''Moira Kinross [=MacTaggert=] / Moira X''

* {{Realpolitik}}: Xavier abandons his long-held dream of a peaceful coexistence between mutants and humanity for the time being in order to establish Krakoa as a mutant state that can operate as a global superpower. To accomplish this goal, he's willing to greatly aid humanity with miracle drugs as long as they recognize Krakoa as a sovereign state. However, this also comes at a cost of giving amnesty to known Mutant criminals and terrorists that can abuse their diplomatic immunity.

* SuperhumanSupremacist: Esme and Sophie are really vocal ones, comparing the UN Security Council to monkeys, to their face.

* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: Looks like she could be young Cable's sister, which makes it even more hilarious when Cable asks him mom for permission to swap weapons with

* IdiotBall: Creed finds himself on trial again, this time by the mutant government of Krakoa. The majority are openly in favour of punishment. One would expect that he'd point out the hypocrisy of punishing him when some members of the council are even bigger monsters than he is, or that he'd remind Magneto that Magneto knew exactly who and what he was when he tapped him for a secret mission in the first place. Instead, [[spoiler: he threatens them and their loved ones, and is [[NotSoHarmlessPunishment exiled]] for it.]]

* TheNotSoHarmlessPunishment: [[spoiler: ''House of X'' #6 does this in a big way. During his trial at Achilles, he's as remorseless as ever, but gets even more haughty when Emma comes to take him back to Krakoa -even smugly firing his defense attorney. However, back at Krakoa he is put on trial by the council with new rules they put in place -one that forbids the murder of humans. As punishment Creed is swallowed up by Krakoa and imprisoned below the surface to spend eternity in a state of fully conscious stasis.]]

* TheConstant: Cylobel [[spoiler:Existed in both sixth and ninth of Moira's lives.]]

* ScrewDestiny: Figuratively and metaphorically, Moira has no small animosity with the mutant Destiny and also wants to avert what seems to be a constant of mutant extinction at the hands of humanity by proxy of the sentinels. After failing to prevent them from destroying mutantkind in various lifetimes, she uses her last life to help Charles Xavier come up with a plan to ensure their survival well into the future. Because she doesn't want to be found out and exposed again she singles out mutant precogs as the only mutants not to be resurrected on Krakoa.

[[folder:Moira [=MacTaggert=]]]

** '''Moira VII:''' Moira becomes an assassin and kills the Trasks to ensure the Sentinels are never built. This plan only delays the inevitable, and the Sentinels end up killing her and the other mutants anyway.

** '''Moira X:''' The timeline that the audience has been reading since the beginning. Moira moves away from her misanthropy of several of her past lives and instead goes back to trying to establish coexistence between humans and mutants, albeit in a much different way that involves "breaking the rules" that she established in past lives. She informs Professor X of all her knowledge and helps him enact a plan that will save mutantkind... And she's still alive, with her death being faked by the Shi'ar.

* LivingADoubleLife: She spent multiple lifetimes either unaware of her mutant heritage or keeping it a secret from everyone.

* PeggySue: Her powers let her pull this trope off, as long as she only dies after her powers activate at 13, at least according to Destony.

* TomatoInTheMirror: She's been a mutant throughout the entire run of the ''X-Men'' franchise, rather than a human ally. She makes this discovery at the beginning of her second life, but doesn't realize what she is until she sees Charles Xavier reveal his status as a mutant to the general public.

** '''Moira VI:''' Moira ends up in the Librarian's futuristic "zoo" with other mutants, where he explains to her that genetic engineering will surpass the evolution that produced mutantkind. After the Librarian gives Wolverine an opening to kill him, Moira has Wolverine kill her as well. This is the future seen in the Year 1000 period of ''Powers Of X''.

* CampStraight: Hickman's take on the villain is unexpectedly one of the goofiest, although he's still no less of a threat.

** '''Moira VI:''' Moira ends up in the Librarian's futuristic "zoo" with other mutants, where he explains to her that genetic engineering will surpass the evolution that produced mutantkind. After the Librarian gives Wolverine an opening to kill him, Moira has Wolverine kill her as well.

** '''Moira II:''' Moira realizes that she's a mutant after first resurrecting, and discovers that she's a mutant after Charles Xavier, a former classmate at Oxford, reveals what he is to the world. She dies in a plane crash on her way to meet him.

* PeggySue: Her powers let her pull this trope off ''nine times''.

** '''Moira VI:''' [[TheUnreveal [=[REDACTED]=]]]

!!!'''Species:''' Sentinel

A current member of the Hellfire Club and one of the highest authorities on Krakoa.

* GoodAllAlong: In a sense. Just about everything that he's done has been part of a massive XanatosGambit in conjunction with Charles Xavier and Moira X.
