!!''[[ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} Logan Howlett / Wolverine]]''

* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Sue tries to call out Cyclops for the mutants acting xenophobic and isolationist. Thing is, Sue has the privilege of both not being a mutant and also being a renown celebrity, more than what can be said for the mutants of the world. Cyclops says as much.

* {{Polyamory}}: She is in a polyamorous relationship with both Cyclops and Wolverine. Her room is between Scott's and Logan's and linked to both. The house is called "the Summer house" and Logan is the only one not linked with the Summer family through blood or marriage.

!!''Orchis''

An alliance of various members of organizations, namely A.I.M., S.H.I.E.L.D., S.W.O.R.D., S.T.R.I.K.E., Alpha Flight, A.R.M.O.R., and even H.A.M.M.E.R. and HYDRA. All are banded together to keep humanity's interests in check.

* TheAlliance: Members of various organizations join together, in response to the alliance of Krakoa.
* FloralMotifs: Named after a type of orchid, which refers to a plant with multiple and complex flowers. This reflects the organizations nature of one organization consisting of members from many complex factions.
* MotiveDecay: The original form of Orchis formed to study mutantkind after what happened at Genosha. Skip forward a few years, and they're now dedicated to pre-emptively trying to wipe out mutantkind.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Orchis includes members from both H.A.M.M.E.R. and HYDRA. Dr. Gregor makes it clear it's only an alliance of convenience, and she hates working with them.

[[folder:Dr. Killian Devo]]
!!''Doctor Killian Devo''
!!!'''Species:''' Human cyborg
!!!'''Citizenship:''' British

A former member of S.T.R.I.K.E., Dr. Devo is the Director of Orchis.

* BigBad: As the head of Orchis, he is the closest thing to a main villain for Hickman's run so far.
* {{Cyborg}}: He was born blind and has cybernetic implants installed that allowed him to see in ultraviolet and infrared spectrums.

A former A.I.M. scientist, Dr. Gregor joined Orchis alongside her husband Erasmus Mendel. She is the lead scientist of the organization.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She is working towards the extermination of mutants, but has a loving relationship with her husband. Gregor's research into developing Nimrod is in part seeking a way into brining him back.
* EvilGenius: Her research and expertise led to the almost successful creation of a Mother Mold, but the X-Men destroyed it before it could be completed.
* ItsPersonal: After her husband's death attempting to stop the mutant attack on the Forge, the conflict with mutantkind becomes deeply personal for her.

Former member of the X-Men, Karima Shapandar now works for Orchis as Omega Sentinel. She lives to 2109 thanks to being functionally immortal, and is part of the Man-Machine Ascendancy.

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Ninety years later, she has bright red skin.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: Even the Orchis files note that nobody's sure exactly who she's answering to, if anyone. When the X-Men attack Mother Mold, she barely acts at all, only directly intervening to paralyze Scott, rather than kill him, which she could. [[spoiler:There are hints she might be serving as a mouthpiece for the ascended future machines.]]
* BaldOfEvil: And a RareFemaleExample at that.
* BaldWomen: Not a hair on her head at the start, nor after nearly a century.
* TheDragon: Nimrod the Lesser's right-hand woman, sort of. Her behavior is more like that of a handler but Nimrod clearly is in charge of the Man-Machine Ascendancy.
* DragonInChief: Implied. Nimrod the Lesser, though portrayed as the leader of the Man-Machine Ascendancy that the others refer, very clearly asks Omega Sentinel for permission to be the one to "extract" the information from the uncooperative Cylobel, suggesting that Omega Sentinel is above Nimrod. The full details aren't yet known.
* 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:Though subverted in that case, since it turns out that wasn't "our" Karima after all.]]
* MsFanservice: Ninety years later she wears a skin-tight suit with a massive bust, and the art likes to emphasize that.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: By ''Powers of X'', she's over a hundred years old and still going strong. It's stated that she's functionally immortal, so dying naturally isn't a concern for her.
* SnapBack: Karima was last seen having been made human again and abandoning the identity of Omega Sentinel. Yet, here she is again.
* TokenHeroicOrc: Formerly. Karima had the distinction of being a Sentinel on the X-Men, using her mutant-hunting abilities for good. [[FaceHeelTurn Not so much anymore.]]
* 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. [[spoiler:Then it turns out that's an Omega Sentinel of a different timeline.]]

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fantastic_four_vol_6_11_larraz_virgin_variant1.jpg]]

Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch and The Thing. Marvel's first family, and a longtime ally of the X-Men. However, things are a little shaky right now.

* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Sue tries to call out Cyclops for the mutants acting xenophobic and isolationist. Thing is, Sue has the privilege of both not being a mutant and also being a renown celebrity, more than what can be said for the mutants of the world. Cyclops says as much.
-->'''Invisible Woman:''' Cyclops... this amnesty. The other things Xavier is doing... what are all you thinking?
-->'''Cyclops:''' Our family has spent our entire lives being hunted and hated. The world has told me I was less when I knew I was more. Did you honestly think we were just going to sit around forever and just take it?
-->'''Invisible Woman:''' Of course not. But...
* BashBrothers: Johnny and Ben. They spot Mystique, Toad and Sabretooth robbing from Damage Control and were ready to kick some ass.
-->'''Johnny:''' Would you look at that, Ben. A bunch of no-good thieves taking stuff that don't belong to them. Now, what do we do with no-good thieves?
-->'''Ben:''' Nothin' nice, Johnny!
* PolitenessJudo: Reed engages in this with Scott. He makes it clear there will be consequences if he tries to take Sabretooth back to Krakoa, yet is civil as he says it. Scott in turn politely backs down from it (for now).

!Future

!!Asteroid K

[[folder:General]]
Houses the X-Men and the Horsemen of Apocalypse by Year 100.

* LaResistance: The ones fighting against the Man-Machine Ascendancy in the name of mutants.

[[folder:Rasputin]]
!!''Rasputin''

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/powers_of_x_vol_1_1_new_character_variant_textless1.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''"You've forgotten that machines have no soul and that the humans lost theirs a long time ago."'']]

A third generation "chimera" mutant, and descendant of the Rasputin family that Piotr and Illyana are part of. She's part of the Asteroid K mutants.

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Has silver-bluish skin.
* BoobsOfSteel: Though not focused on as much as others, she clearly has a bust and is a powerful chimera mutant. Bonus points for the fact that they can ''become'' steel through Colossus' powers.
* ComboPlatterPowers: Rasputin has the powers of Colossus, Kid Omega, Kitty Pryde, X-23 and Unus. To what extent isn't clear. She also wields the Soulsword from Magik.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Her left arm is covered, her right one isn't.
* FormFittingWardrobe: While she's covered, the costume is also very skintight and highlights her body.
* TheHero: The closest the ''Powers of X'' timeline has to a main character.
* LightningBruiser: She mentioned herself that she was purpose-born to be a [[StoneWall tank]] but her Colossus strength and Magik soulsword lets her hit hard and fast.
* RapunzelHair: She has ''very'' long hair, actually enough to reach down to her ankles. It's meant to be less feminine and more to make her look strong and wild like an Amazonian warrior.
* StatuesqueStunner: She appears to be well over six feet tall. One shot has her towering over Cardinal (who appears to be Nightcrawler's height -- 5'9"), and the best estimate puts her to be somewhere in the range of 6'3".

[[folder:Cardinal]]
!!''Cardinal''
!!!'''Species:''' Chimera mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Unknown
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/powers_of_x_vol_1_2_new_character_variant_textless1.jpg]]

A third generation "chimera" mutant, and the last of a pacifist breed.

* ActualPacifist: A flaw in his genetic engineering makes him psychologically incapable of willingly doing violence.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: He has red skin.
* BadassPreacher: Fighting is not his thing, but he's still a rebel, and he's stated to be the last priest of the only religion left.
* DirtyCoward: Accused of this by Rasputin, but really doesn't like fighting.
* GodzillaThreshold: The threat of the Sentinels becomes so much that he becomes a Horseman of Apocalypse, allowing him to bypass his genetically hardwired pacifism.
* PlanetOfSteves: All outlier mutants of his generation were all named Cardinal, due to refusing to take up personal names as part of their rejection of individual identities.

[[folder:Cylobel]]
!!''Cylobel''
!!!'''Species:''' Sentinel mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Unknown

Rasputin's sister and fellow freedom fighter, originally bred in the [=SalCen=] Khennil to hunt mutants as one of the Man-Machine Ascendancy's hounds.

* TheConstant: Cylobel existed in both sixth and ninth of Moira's lives.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Cylobel is ground into femtofluid — her organs, body and other matter will be ground into raw fluid and all her genetic data and the information in it will be uploaded via database. And she's conscious during the process. In the far future, the Librarian is seen trying to revive Cylobel among other mutants subjected to the femtofluid, only to be unable to save or copy any souls due to the amount of machinery inside the database.
* HeroicSacrifice: Gives herself up so Rasputin and Cardinal can escape.
* InSpiteOfANail: [[spoiler:It's revealed that the hundred years future and the thousand year future are actually different versions of events, but Cylobel ends up jarred in both.]]
* PsychicBlockDefense: Engineered to have a black brain that's impossible to read telepathically.
* StuffedIntoTheFridge: Her death sets up Rasputin's role in the story as the main protagonist by giving her more motivation to fight.
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Engineered by humans to infiltrate and betray the mutants but her instincts to betray lead to the whole crop turning against them instead.

[[folder:Wolverine]]
!!''[[ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} Logan Howlett / Wolverine]]''

!!!'''Citizenship:''' Canadian

Wolverine, a hundred years into the future as War.

* TheDragon: To Apocalypse

[[folder:North]]
!!''North''
!!!'''Species:''' Chimera mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Unknown

A second generation "chimera" mutant, combining traits of Polaris and (apparently) Emma Frost. Serves Apocalypse as Pestilence.

* GenerationXerox: Bears a striking resemblance to Magneto, his genetic grandfather. Dresses exactly like him but with his clothing in Lorna's green.
* PunnyName: Polaris is the ''north'' star, and it's ''frosty'' up north.
* MagnetismManipulation: He displays Lorna Dane's powers. He should also be either a telepath or be capable of turning himself into diamond, but he never displays either of the White Queen's powers.

[[folder:Krakoa]]
!!''Cypher/Doug Ramsey''
!!!'''Species:''' Human mutant/Sentient Island
!!!'''Citizenship:''' American

A symbiotic hybrid of Cypher and Krakoa, a hundred years into the future as Famine.

* FusionDance: At some point in the past Krakoa fused with Doug, not unlike Doug's past fusions with Warlock.
* ThinkingUpPortals: Can generate gateways to the Krakoan portal network by opening himself up.

[[folder:Xorn]]
!!''Kuan–Yin Xorn / Xorn''
!!!'''Species:''' Human mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Chinese

Xorn, a hundred years into the future as Death.

* DeathSeeker: 100 years in the future, he expresses his wishes to die as much as he possibly can to the point of dying with a grin on his face when his mask is ripped off against Omega Sentinel.

[[folder:Percival]]
!!''Emmanuel Cortez''
!!!'''Species:''' Human mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Unknown

A future mutant.

* MythologyGag: His mutant power, being invisible to machines, looks to be a reference to the "Outback Era" X-Men, where they were enchanted to not show up on film or video.
* PosthumousCharacter: He is only seen immediately after his death.

[[folder:Apocalypse]]
!!''[[ComicBook/{{Apocalypse}} En Sabah Nur / Apocalypse]]''
!!!'''Species:''' Human mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Egyptian

Apocalypse, a hundred years into the future of Moira X's ninth life.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: A genocidal mutant who destroyed all the Avengers of his world is ''still'' preferable to a Nimrod, a robotic overlord that subjugates mutants and humans alike. It helps that he learns to genuinely care for his species as opposed to simply act as a SocialDarwinist. In addition, Nimrod notes that Apocalypse and his followers actually ''saved'' ordinary humans caught in the crossfire, which is something that he isn't known for at all.
* BigGood: The traditional BigBad for many ''X-Men'' stories becomes the leader of the team in the BadFuture.
* HeelFaceTurn: Yes, really. He finally realizes that the ultimate threat to mutankind is not the threat of weakness, but an army of killer robots that hunt their species down.
* HeroicSacrifice: He stays behind to cover Wolverine's escape. Nimrod slaughter's him.
* TheWorfEffect: Nimrod utterly destroys him in single combat, [[CurbstompCushion although he is able to destroy one of Nimrod's duplicates.]]

!!Shi'ar

[[folder:Empress Xandra]]
!!''Empress Xandra Neramani''
!!!'''Species:''' Genetically engineered Shi'ar/Human mutant hybrid
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Shi'ar

The daughter of Charles Xavier and Lilandra. She's the empress of the Shi'ar Empire, and believes humans should never be dominant again.
----
* AscendedExtra: Xandra only appeared beforehand in the ''ComicBook/MrAndMrsX'' series as a very minor character, and now she's a major force in the story itself as the Empress of the Shi'ar. Though she hasn't appeared on screen yet, she's portrayed as a GreaterScopeParagon to the mutants.
* GreaterScopeParagon: Away from the action in Year 100, but important as the one who keeps mutantkind safe in her galaxy.
* TheGhost: ''Powers of X'' doesn't show her, only said in a graph.
* HeinzHybrid: She's a HalfHumanHybrid of a Shi'ar and a human, but the Shi'ar is genetically-engineered and the human side is mutant.

!!Man-Machine Ascendancy

[[folder:Nimrod the Lesser]]
!!''Nimrod the Lesser''
!!!'''Species:''' Sentinel
!!!'''Citizenship:''' N/A

The leader of the Man-Machine Ascendancy, engaged in a war against mutants.
----
* AffablyEvil: Polite to his subjects, to the point of calling them equals. He also genuinely apologizes to his enemies, with regret that he must do it.
* AntiVillain: It's hard to even see him as truly evil, but a product of the CrapsackWorld he lives in.
* BadBoss: He gleefully executes his own human hunters.
* BigBad: Presented as the main villain 100 years into the future.
* FantasticRacism: Doesn't like mutants, much like many other Marvel villains. Unlike most examples, however, Nimrod is much more three-dimensional and justified in his contempt for mutants. Even then, he doesn't appear to hate the mutants themselves but what they've done to the world.
* MoodSwinger: At times, he can alternate between cold bombast, and acting like... well, a little kid (in the body of a killer robot), as seen with his practically squeeing when Omega Sentinel lets him have his way.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Nimrod the Greater]]
!!''Nimrod the Greater''
!!!'''Species:''' Sentinel

[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Librarian]]
!!''The Librarian''
!!!'''Species:''' Homo novissima
!!!'''Citizenship:''' N/A

----

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: His skin is a pale blue.
* ConflictingLoyalty: He actually tells Logan and Moira about what's going to happen because he's not entirely convinced becoming part of the Phalanx is actually for the best.
* EternalEnglish: Sort of. He can speak English, because he's been spying on Logan and Moira.
* SmugSuper: Boasts that he can predict Wolverine's attacks and see them coming. Logan manages to stab and kill him anyway.

[[/folder]]

* TheAlliance: Krakoa is alliance of mutants, of all kinds and backgrounds (heroes, villains, neutrals) bound together to give mutantkind a home as they are set to become the majority.
* {{Conlang}}: Krakoa now has its own language, devised by Cypher, that is telepathically imprinted on any mutants who come to its main island. This language is shown throughout the comics.
* DiplomaticImpunity: Anyone, regardless of their moral fiber, is given amnesty just for being a mutant. There are some limits, as Reed makes it clear there will be issue if Cyclops tried to take back Sabretooth, and Cyclops backs out. That said, it's heavily implied to just be a delay more than anything.
* FantasyCounterpartCulture: According to WordOfGod, modern UsefulNotes/{{Israel}}. Specifically, how ideals can clash with the reality of politics in the attempt to build a "mutant nation."
* GeniusLoci: Krakoa is both the nation of the mutants and a mutant itself. Jean even notes that it "recognizes its own" as why mutants can come to it freely.
* HiddenElfVillage: Krakoa, a nation that only mutants can reside in. Humans must have permission from higher authorities to visit, and are unable to live there. Similarly, beings of other superpowered origins (such as mutates) like the Fantastic Four or Spider-Man also fall under this restriction. The only two known exceptions thus far of non-mutants living on Krakoa is the alien dragon Lockheed (more of a TeamPet than an actual individual of his own) and the techno-organic alien Warlock (considered a "mutant" of a sort for being different than the other members of his race). Notably, this restriction even appears to extend to past friends, allies and team members that weren't actually mutants; Omega Sentinel, a former member of the X-Men but not a mutant, was ''not'' extended the ability to reside there, which may partly explain why she now works against them as part of Orchis.
* PortalNetwork: Krakoa now has a type of flower that grows in an arch that teleports whoever it wishes to a paired flower in a remote location. They'll automatically transport mutants, but humans need mutants to ask permission to travel to the main island itself.
* TruceZone: Officially, Krakoa is this for all mutants. Everyone, regardless of legal status (hero, villain or whatever), can live on Krakoa so long as they don't cause trouble there. However, the amnesty offered only extends so far, and seems to be something revoked if it would cause too much trouble with others, such as Sabretooth's arrest by the Fantastic Four.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: Something isn't right about him. Not only has he inexplicably abandoned his philosophy of integration and equality in favor of isolationism and looking down on normal humans, but he’s suddenly willing to work with villains like Mystique, Sabretooth, and Toad to get things done. One of the first things we see him do is send them to steal valuable data from Damage Control, seemingly not caring when Sabretooth kills several innocent security guards in the process. ''House of X'' #2 indicates that he's not actually evil at all, but is willing to sacrifice his initial dream for the sake of ensuring a lasting future for all mutants. There's still a lot that's shady and unpleasant about what he does, though.
* AntiClimacticUnmasking: An odd example, considering that it follows [[spoiler:his assassination]] in ''X-Force'' #1, but ''X-Force'' #2 showcases that [[spoiler:his face is completely normal when he's not wearing Cerebro]].
** The more traditional example occurs in X-Men #4, removing Cerebro during the economic summit.
* AntiHero: Gone are the days of the PatrickStewartSpeech-delivering idealist that we once knew, although that isn't to say he's turned bad. X is still very much someone with noble intentions and still believes in coexistence, but he's become a lot more pragmatic in response to learning the full extent of the problems facing mutantkind.
* BigGood: Has been one for mutants for a very long time. In actuality, it turns out that he's part of a [[BigBadDuumvirate Big Good]] [[InvertedTrope Duumvirate]] with Moira X, who is using her knowledge to ensure that mutants never have to worry about going extinct ever again... And Magneto, who has played along with their plans this whole time.
* BodySurf: Charles Xavier's mind is possessing Fantomex's body, although Fantomex is completely fine with this. As such, he's no longer disabled, and can walk again.
** According to WordOfGod, he's back in his own body after his assassination.
* BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: An interesting platonic version - Moira makes Charles read her mind to see that throughout her lives, he's never changed; and if mutants are to survive as a species, his conceptions need to be broken, and built anew.
* TheChessmaster: Nearly everything that's happened since the X-Men's formation has been a part of a larger, previously-unseen plan with Moira, with the foundation of a mutant state on Krakoa serving as one of the most important steps toward an end goal of ensuring that Mutants are not driven extinct by Sentinels.
* MalevolentMaskedMen: His signature helmet, which looks a lot like ComicBook/TheMaker. Downplayed in the sense that he's not actually evil, but he is more ruthless than he's ever been.
* MindRape: Currently, the worst he's done is [[spoiler:messing with Reed Richards' mind to prevent him from building a device that hides the X-Gene again]]. He points out that this is a CruelMercy as he could have just erased his mind of the entire debacle, but he wants to prove a point.
* {{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. At least at first, as Sabretooth finds out [[AndIMustScream the hard way]].
* PresidentSuperhero: Essentially this for Krakoa.

* AliensInCardiff: Krakoa is a resource rich, lush, advanced and alien-esque land where mutants reside. It is ''not'' located in North America, and certainly not near [[BigApplesauce New York City]] like one might expect from Marvel, or on some fancy place like the Moon, Mars or an altogether alien world, or even some alternate dimension, but rather in the Oceania region, not far off from Australia.

* BornAgainImmortality: Her mutant power, which comes with PastLifeMemories. She has 10 lives, and possibly 11 to Destiny's understanding.

* GroundhogDayLoop: Her mutant power. She has ten lives, and every time she dies, she's transported back into her body as a fetus, with all of her prior memories. To summarize, her ten lives are as follows:

** '''Moira III:''' Moira meets Professor X at Oxford, but finds him so repulsive and is so frustrated by her own powers that she begins developing a mutant cure. Destiny, Mystique, and Pyro discover this and slowly burn her to death, but not before Destiny tells her about the nature of her powers and telling her that she'll be aware of her actions in every life, and will kill her if she tries acting out of the best interests of mutants.
** '''Moira IV:''' Moira and Professor X meet and have a happy life together. Things play out as they did in the backlog of ''X-Men'' comics, and they all live happily ever after... Until the ''ComicBook/DaysOfFuturePast'' timeline comes to pass and they both die.

** '''Moira VI:''' Moira increases her lifespan with a blood sample from Wolverine, and 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''.
** '''Moira VII:''' Moira becomes an assassin and kills the entire Trask family (though no mention of Larry Trask, who is a mutant) to ensure the Sentinels are never built. This plan only delays the inevitable, and the Sentinels are still created and end up killing her and the other mutants anyway.

** '''Moira IX:''' Moira presents her knowledge to Apocalypse this time. While they're able to defeat the heroes that stand in their way, the Sentinels come back with a vengeance. Moira dies in the distant future. This is the future seen in the Year 100 period of ''Powers Of X''.

* BadassBodyguard: After Xavier's temporary death over in ''X-Force'', Gorgon is assigned to bodyguard him and Magneto if they ever leave Krakoa. Comes in handy when Charles and Erik are nearly attacked during a diplomatic conference.

* FaceHeelTurn: Sort of, though he is not remotely ''good'' by any means. He's just on the X-Men's side now.

Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch and The Thing. Marvel's first family, and a longtime ally of the X-Men. However, things are a little shaky right now.

* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Sue tries to call out Cyclops for the mutants acting xenophobic and isolationist. Thing is, Sue has the privilege of both not being a mutant and also being a renown celebrity, more than what can be said for the mutants of the world. Cyclops says as much.
-->'''Invisible Woman:''' Cyclops... this amnesty. The other things Xavier is doing... what are all you thinking?
-->'''Cyclops:''' Our family has spent our entire lives being hunted and hated. The world has told me I was less when I knew I was more. Did you honestly think we were just going to sit around forever and just take it?
-->'''Invisible Woman:''' Of course not. But...
* BashBrothers: Johnny and Ben. They spot Mystique, Toad and Sabretooth robbing from Damage Control and were ready to kick some ass.
-->'''Johnny:''' Would you look at that, Ben. A bunch of no-good thieves taking stuff that don't belong to them. Now, what do we do with no-good thieves?
-->'''Ben:''' Nothin' nice, Johnny!
* PolitenessJudo: Reed engages in this with Scott. He makes it clear there will be consequences if he tries to take Sabretooth back to Krakoa, yet is civil as he says it. Scott in turn politely backs down from it (for now).

!Future

!!Asteroid K

[[folder:General]]
Houses the X-Men and the Horsemen of Apocalypse by Year 100.

* LaResistance: The ones fighting against the Man-Machine Ascendancy in the name of mutants.

[[caption-width-right:350:''"You've forgotten that machines have no soul and that the humans lost theirs a long time ago."'']]

A third generation "chimera" mutant, and descendant of the Rasputin family that Piotr and Illyana are part of. She's part of the Asteroid K mutants.

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Has silver-bluish skin.
* BoobsOfSteel: Though not focused on as much as others, she clearly has a bust and is a powerful chimera mutant. Bonus points for the fact that they can ''become'' steel through Colossus' powers.
* ComboPlatterPowers: Rasputin has the powers of Colossus, Kid Omega, Kitty Pryde, X-23 and Unus. To what extent isn't clear. She also wields the Soulsword from Magik.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Her left arm is covered, her right one isn't.
* FormFittingWardrobe: While she's covered, the costume is also very skintight and highlights her body.
* TheHero: The closest the ''Powers of X'' timeline has to a main character.
* LightningBruiser: She mentioned herself that she was purpose-born to be a [[StoneWall tank]] but her Colossus strength and Magik soulsword lets her hit hard and fast.
* RapunzelHair: She has ''very'' long hair, actually enough to reach down to her ankles. It's meant to be less feminine and more to make her look strong and wild like an Amazonian warrior.
* StatuesqueStunner: She appears to be well over six feet tall. One shot has her towering over Cardinal (who appears to be Nightcrawler's height -- 5'9"), and the best estimate puts her to be somewhere in the range of 6'3".

[[folder:Cardinal]]
!!''Cardinal''

%%[[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]

A third generation "chimera" mutant, and the last of a pacifist breed.

* ActualPacifist: A flaw in his genetic engineering makes him psychologically incapable of willingly doing violence.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: He has red skin.
* BadassPreacher: Fighting is not his thing, but he's still a rebel, and he's stated to be the last priest of the only religion left.
* DirtyCoward: Accused of this by Rasputin, but really doesn't like fighting.
* GodzillaThreshold: The threat of the Sentinels becomes so much that he becomes a Horseman of Apocalypse, allowing him to bypass his genetically hardwired pacifism.
* PlanetOfSteves: All outlier mutants of his generation were all named Cardinal, due to refusing to take up personal names as part of their rejection of individual identities.

[[folder:Cylobel]]
!!''Cylobel''
!!!'''Species:''' Sentinel mutant

Rasputin's sister and fellow freedom fighter, originally bred in the [=SalCen=] Khennil to hunt mutants as one of the Man-Machine Ascendancy's hounds.

* TheConstant: Cylobel existed in both sixth and ninth of Moira's lives.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Cylobel is ground into femtofluid — her organs, body and other matter will be ground into raw fluid and all her genetic data and the information in it will be uploaded via database. And she's conscious during the process. In the far future, the Librarian is seen trying to revive Cylobel among other mutants subjected to the femtofluid, only to be unable to save or copy any souls due to the amount of machinery inside the database.
* HeroicSacrifice: Gives herself up so Rasputin and Cardinal can escape.
* InSpiteOfANail: [[spoiler:It's revealed that the hundred years future and the thousand year future are actually different versions of events, but Cylobel ends up jarred in both.]]
* PsychicBlockDefense: Engineered to have a black brain that's impossible to read telepathically.
* StuffedIntoTheFridge: Her death sets up Rasputin's role in the story as the main protagonist by giving her more motivation to fight.
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Engineered by humans to infiltrate and betray the mutants but her instincts to betray lead to the whole crop turning against them instead.

[[folder:Wolverine]]
!!''[[ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} Logan Howlett / Wolverine]]''
!!!'''Species:''' Human mutant
!!!'''Citizenship:''' Canadian

Wolverine, a hundred years into the future as War.

* TheDragon: To Apocalypse

* LightIsNotGood: His new costume is primarily white, but he's not a shining paragon of virtue unless you're a mutant.

!!Orchis

[[folder:General]]
!!''Orchis''

An alliance of various members of organizations, namely A.I.M., S.H.I.E.L.D., S.W.O.R.D., S.T.R.I.K.E., Alpha Flight, A.R.M.O.R., and even H.A.M.M.E.R. and HYDRA. All are banded together to keep humanity's interests in check.

* TheAlliance: Members of various organizations join together, in response to the alliance of Krakoa.
* FloralMotifs: Named after a type of orchid, which refers to a plant with multiple and complex flowers. This reflects the organizations nature of one organization consisting of members from many complex factions.
* MotiveDecay: The original form of Orchis formed to study mutantkind after what happened at Genosha. Skip forward a few years, and they're now dedicated to pre-emptively trying to wipe out mutantkind.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Orchis includes members from both H.A.M.M.E.R. and HYDRA. Dr. Gregor makes it clear it's only an alliance of convenience, and she hates working with them.

* SnapBack: Emma once again is just the White Queen of the Hellfire Club or as it is now known The Hellfire Corporation. Also, she has to work with Sebastian Shaw, at Charles and Erik's recommendation, despite (as she points out) having just got rid of him.

* 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.

* {{Conlang}}: Krakoa now has its own language, devised by Cypher, that is telepathically imprinted on any mutants who come to its main island. This language is shown throughout the comics.

* AscendedExtra: She goes from being a relatively minor ''X-Men'' supporting character to '''the''' most important character in the story going forward.

* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: Implied with Apocalypse in her ninth life, may be a case of TrailersAlwaysLie.

* RousseauWasRight: After a fashion. While she notes that having an adult mind transfer into a fetus is something that should be horrifying, she notes that she finds the experience comforting, knowing that her family was there to protect her. If anything, she found the world to be a more hostile place after being reborn.
* 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 allowed or resurrected on Krakoa.
* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: She attempts this in multiple lifetimes, but fails, usually because of the Sentinels. However, it's indicated that her tenth lifetime will end up being way more successful.

* UnexplainedRecovery: Esme and Sophie return after having been dead for over a decade.

* MesACrowd: Following up on Keiron Gillen's run, Sinister is a society unto himself.

* HeroicSacrifice: ...Maybe. He stays behind to cover Wolverine's escape, but we don't actually see him die. Considering how notoriously hard he is to kill, it's uncertain if Nimrod actually finished the job.

* LivingADoubleLife: She spent her first lifetime unaware of her mutant heritage and the rest keeping it a secret from everyone except her allies in lives six, eight, nine, and ten.

* LivingADoubleLife: She spent her first lifetime unaware of her mutant heritage and the rest 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 Destiny.

* TokenEvilTeammate: Orchis includes members from both H.A.M.M.E.R. and HYDRA.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: Even the Orchis files note that nobody's sure exactly who she's answering to, if anyone. [[spoiler:There are hints she might be serving as a mouthpiece for the ascended future machines.]]

* MoodSwinger: At times, he can alternate between cold bombast, and acting like... well, a little kid (in the body of a killer robot), as seen with his practically squeezing when Omega Sentinel lets him have his way.
