* HeroOfAnotherStory: Both in a conventional and a meta way. For the former, they are the last great mutant resistance cell, but we don't get to see their adventures before the X-Men meet them. For the latter, none of the cast additions had a part in the ''ComicBook/DaysOfFuturePast'' storyline in the comic books; only Bishop was included in the adaptation of said arc in the 1992 ''WesternAnimation/XMen'', and it was because the character had recently debuted in the comics and was in the peak of his popularity (also because, being Bishop a badass from a BadFuture and ''Days'' an arc about a BadFuture, it seemed intuitive to mix them together).

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: This version of Bishop seems to be a stoic and sensible individual, very unlike his HotBlooded and eventually AxCrazy comic book self.

The Free Mutants were a global network of mutant resistance founded by Lucas Bishop in 2018 in response to increased attacks on mutants by Trask Industries and their Sentinels, machines created explicitly for the purpose of hunting down and killing mutants. They allied with X-Men in the BadFuture section of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.

!! Free Mutants
The Free Mutants were a global network of mutant resistance founded by Lucas Bishop in 2018 in response to increased attacks on mutants by Trask Industries and their Sentinels, machines created explicitly for the purpose of hunting down and killing mutants. They allied with X-Men in the BadFuture section of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''.

By 2023, their membership had dwindled down to only a handful of members, only managing to "survive" Sentinel attacks by Kitty Pryde sending Bishop's mind briefly into the past and warn the Free Mutants of the incoming attack early enough for there to be enough time to escape.

->'''Played by:''' Omar Sy
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''

A large and powerful mutant with energy absorption and redirection powers and founder of the underground "Free Mutants" movement.
----
* AgeLift: Technically, his comic counterpart is still yet to be born, despite Blink, Warpath, and Sunspot being around.
* BadassBeard: It makes him look formidable.
* {{BFG}}: He wields one which he charges with his powers. On closer inspection, it appears to be ''connected to his circulatory system''.
* DreadlockWarrior: An extremely impressive and long variety.
* EnergyAbsorption: His mutant ability allows him to absorb any form of energy and redirect it, which he uses to charge his gun.
* AFatherToHisMen: In ''The Rogue Cut'', Bishop is [[WhatTheHellHero less than impressed]] with the plan, pointing out it might {{Retgone}} everyone born after the war began, and that if he and his people are to get behind it, they must vote.
* FlatCharacter: He is a glorified extra whose main purpose in the story is to serve as cannon fodder for the 2023-era Sentinels.
* MarkOfShame: An "M" for Mutant above his eyebrow.
* PhlebotinumOverload: In one iteration of reality, he blows up after absorbing too much energy from three Sentinels' beams.

->'''Played by:''' Fan Bingbing
->'''Film Appearances''': ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''

A young mutant with teleportation powers; she's able to generate a series of connected portals that anyone can pass through.
----
* ActionGirl: Her powers make her extremely effective in fighting the Sentinels, both in taking them out herself and assisting the others in fighting them.
* TheArtifact: In the comics, she gets her name from the sound made when she teleports, a loud "bloink". The portals she creates in the film don't make that noise, but she's still called Blink.
** This can still stand as a reference to the fact that short-range teleportation is often called "blinking" in some sci-fi/fantasy franchises.
%%* BadassAdorable
* BraidsOfAction: She wears her hair in a long fishtail braid (see image).
* EarlyBirdCameo: WordOfGod is she'll be in ''Film/XMenApocalypse'' as well; which [[Comicbook/AgeOfApocalypse makes sense.]]
* EmeraldPower: She has an eye-only example (a kinda realistic version of [[http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090310202912/marveldatabase/images/thumb/0/06/Clarice_Ferguson_%28Earth-295%29.png/250px-Clarice_Ferguson_%28Earth-295%29.png her comics counterpart's]] [[MonochromaticEyes fully-green eyes]] - the shade is still unusual, and [[PowerGlows her eyes glow]]).
* FacialMarkings: Has tattoos around her eyes.
* FlatCharacter: She is a glorified extra whose main purpose in the story is to serve as cannon fodder for the 2023-era Sentinels.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:Twice by Sentinels, thanks to the ResetButton. She got it three times in succession the second time.]]
* IWillFightSomeMoreForever: In the ''Rogue Cut'', at the beginning she suggests rather than risking their lives in the time-travel scheme they keep fighting, even though it's quite obvious there's no point. That said, she still agrees to the plan, and since [[spoiler:Iceman dies earlier in that version, she's the last Mutant to go down]].
* MulticoloredHair: She has dark hair with purple streaks.
* PointyEars: Although why the ability to create portals would also give her pointy ears isn't known. It could be just a peculiar side-effect of having Teleport Spam abilities since Nightcrawler and Azazel also have them.
* PortalCut: She cuts off a Sentinel's arm by this way, which makes her the only Free Mutant who manages to do important damage to one of the Sentinels in that battle. However, it seems that she can't deliberately use this power, as it only happens by pure accident [[spoiler:when she is killed through one of her portals.]]
%%* RoseHairedSweetie
* SameLanguageDub: All of her lines are dubbed by an uncredited actress. This may be due to Fan Bingbing possibly having difficulty with English.
* SkywardScream: She lets out a small cry towards the heavens after [[spoiler:being stabbed by three Sentinels.]]
* TeleportSpam: Her main tactic in fight scenes in ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast''. Opening portals in the paths of projectiles, BeamSpam, and even blades to make Sentinels injure each other or themselves.
* ThinkingUpPortals: Can create portals, which she uses rather liberally. Tellingly, she was the last frontline defender to die in the final battle, and the Sentinels were only able to beat her through sheer number.
* WhatBeautifulEyes: And a weird aqua at that, complete with SicklyGreenGlow.

A young mutant with greatly enhanced senses. He acts as the group's scout, warning of coming Sentinels.
----
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Gets his goddamn ''[[FacialHorror face burned off]]''. ''Slowly''. It's easily the most brutal Sentinel-related death.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: At least when compared with other Free Mutants members, who all have mutations that have practical combat applications. His mutation is mostly used for support and he fights with melee weapons.
* KnifeNut: Wields two knives.
* PermaShave: He has very little facial hair despite living in a post-apocalyptic world where mutants are being hunted down by Sentinels.
* RedShirt: He is a glorified extra whose main purpose in the story is to serve as cannon fodder for the 2023-era Sentinels.
* SuperSenses: His mutant ability, which is why he is the team's scout.
* ThisMeansWarPaint: He puts on black paint around his eyes.
* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: In a fight, he tends to use his knives. Unlike the comics, they're not made of Vibranium, and therefore don't really do anything to the Sentinels. Not that this stops him leaping at them and trying to stab them in any way.
