| 22 | A young man from an upper class family in Calcutta, Neal joined the X-Men after his mutant abilities manifested when Bastion attempted to turn him into a Prime Sentinel. After training on Muir Island under Moria [=MacTaggert=]'s supervision he joined Storm's X-Treme X-Men team before eventually departing with Lifeguard to search for her brother Davis. |
| 23 | ---- |
| 24 | * IBelieveICanFly: Using the "superheated air" trick. He leaves a very visible fire trail behind him, which lent itself to problems during stealth missions. |
| 25 | * LegacyCharacter: |
| 26 | ** And one that doesn't make much sense, either. The Indian from India with fire powers is named after the Native American Indian with super strength, speed, and endurance...? |
| 27 | ** Apparently it was a last-minute name swap. There were originally plans to name him Agni (after the Hindu god of fire), but then editorial realized naming a fictional hero after a god still worshipped by one of the world's largest faiths might result in... issues. |
| 28 | * LoveTriangle: Directly involved in the break-up of Psylocke and Archangel. |
| 29 | * NaiveNewcomer: Who later became a [[TheMentor mentor]] to two ''other'' naïve newcomers, despite still being the new guy himself! |
| 30 | * PlayingWithFire: Solar plasma, technically, but it amounts to the same thing in practice. Only more so. |
| 31 | * PutOnABus: After the events of ''X-Treme X-Men'''s second arc, he and Lifeguard set to WalkingTheEarth in search of her brother. They've only been seen a handful of times in the last eight years, even though they're two of the mutants who explicitly kept their powers after M-Day. |
| 32 | * TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: His brother Sanjit went missing, and Neal and a police officer named Karima Shapandar went looking for him, only to wind up captured by Bastion's goons, where they learned Neal's brother had been turned into a Prime Sentinel. The same fate befell Karima, who had started developing feelings for Neal, but when Bastion tried assimilating Neal, it just awakened his Mutant powers. Sanjit overcame his programming to save Neal and Karima, only for the later to tell Neal to get away before her own programming kicked in. |

| 55 | |
| 56 | Born in a war-torn Balkan country, Sage saved the life of Charles Xavier in Afghanistan and returned with him to America. As he put together the first generation of X-Men, Sage's existence was kept secret as he sent her undercover into the Hellfire Club to spy on Sebastian Shaw. After years spent by Shaw's side passing information to Xavier her true allegiances were revealed and Sage has since been a member of several X-Teams. With the founding of the mutant nation of Krakoa, Sage plays a key role as the overseer of Krakoa's gateway network, monitoring all arrivals and departures from the island's control center. |
| 57 | ---- |
| 58 | * TheAlcoholic: She takes to drinking to fill her racing brain in ''X-Force''. She realizes that she is an alcoholic after months of this. |
| 59 | * AscendedExtra: Tessa made her first appearance in "ComicBook/TheDarkPhoenixSaga" as Sebastian Shaw's assistant and was revealed to be a much more important character later. |
| 60 | * AwesomeByAnalysis: An inevitable result of her [[SuperIntelligence "computer-like"]] mind. |
| 61 | ** She'll always open with an attack on the enemy's [[AttackItsWeakPoint weak point]]. |
| 62 | ** She can usually [[CombatClairvoyance predict]] ''exactly'' how her enemy will attack, and counter perfectly. Villains, having [[ContractualBossImmunity plot armour]], will instead [[InformedAbility comment]] on how well she fights, before knocking her away. |
| 63 | ** She'll take only a few moments to examine a blood splatter at a crime scene to [[SherlockScan discern]] how two people fought. |
| 64 | ** She once fought a man who declared himself a master of a martial art she'd never heard of, downloaded everything she could find about it ''while'' fighting him, and then derided his choice of fighting style as she knocked him unconscious. |
| 65 | * BadassBookworm: In terms of melee combat prowess, her skills were stated to be "as nasty and deadly as Wolverine's...maybe even a little bit worse!". |
| 66 | * BecomingTheMask: In ''[[ComicBook/ExcaliburMarvelComics New Excalibur]]'', Sage tries to infiltrate Albion's organization, which she succeeds at, only to become her false identity. Things go worse from there. |
| 67 | * CombatStilettos: A prerequisite for any ex-Hellfire female. |
| 68 | * ComboPlatterPowers: Potentially justified.[[note]]See below.[[/note]] Her demonstrated powers include: |
| 69 | ** [[SuperIntelligence A super-intelligent mind that is "more powerful than a billion supercomputers"]]. |
| 70 | *** [[PhotographicMemory Perfect, instantaneous recall]]. |
| 71 | *** [[InstantExpert Instantaneous learning]]. |
| 72 | *** [[GoodWithNumbers High-speed mental calculation]]. |
| 73 | *** [[TechnoWizard Unstoppable hacking skills]]. |
| 74 | *** [[GadgeteerGenius Makes her own gadgets]]. |
| 75 | ** [[ImprobableAimingSkills Ridiculously precise aim]]. |
| 76 | ** [[MasterOfYourDomain Voluntary control over her own immune system]]. |
| 77 | ** [[SuperEmpowering Manipulation of powers in other mutants]]. |
| 78 | ** {{Telepathy}}. |
| 79 | *** MindControl. |
| 80 | *** The ability to [[PsychicBlockDefense resist]] and [[HoistByHisOwnPetard reflect]] psychic attacks. |
| 81 | *** [[CombinedEnergyAttack Channelling the powers of mutants into other mutants]].[[note]]Stated to be something any telepathic mutant can do[[/note]] |
| 82 | %%The following formatting abuse is to allow the continuation of this trope's description. |
| 83 | ** When suffering a case of EnemyWithin she loses control of the telepathy and demonstrates [[NotQuiteFlight telekinetic flight]], to her surprise. When her [[SplitPersonality alter ego]] takes over, she demonstrates SuperStrength and [[EyeColourChange cosmetic shapeshifting]].[[note]]While Sage's underlying abilities appear to be applied telepathy and telekinesis, it was not made clear that her alter-ego's abilities are the same.[[/note]] |
| 84 | * TheCynic: Whether due to her upbringing or her alliances later in life, she falls squarely on the Cynic side of things. Some relevant quotes: |
| 85 | -->''"My gift -- my '''curse''' -- is to perceive the world as it is. Thanks to Charles Xavier, I have a sense of what it '''might''' be. And best of all, also through him, a sense of '''faith''' and '''hope''' -- of the '''dream''' -- that may yet allow us to '''bridge''' the gulf between the two."'' |
| 86 | --->-- ''ComicBook/XTremeXMen'' #44 |
| 87 | -->''"I assess. I plan. I act. Hope is for ''X-Men''."'' |
| 88 | --->-- ''ComicBook/UncannyXMen'' #454 |
| 89 | -->'''Sage:''' ''[commenting on Cypher creating the Krakoa transport system for mutants]'' Yeah, I can't believe I doubted you.\ |
| 90 | '''Cypher:''' ''[smiling]'' It's time to get with the program, Sage. You need to bury all that '''cynicism''' and replace it with good old-fashioned '''hope'''. |
| 91 | --->-- ''[[ComicBook/HouseAndPowersOfX House of X]]'' #1 |
| 92 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: |
| 93 | ** She spent her early teenage years in a war-torn land as a lone warrior and has killed a ''lot'' of people. |
| 94 | ** When Charles Xavier rescued her from that life, it was only to train her to be his spy in the depraved Hellfire Club. She later made it clear she deeply resented him for this. |
| 95 | * DependingOnTheArtist: Her shades have been drawn with significant differences by almost every artist, including appearing as regular spectacles, bulky visors, or a visor over a single eye.[[note]]Her appearances in ComicBook/DawnOfX have had as many interpretations for her eyewear as there have been artists.[[/note]] |
| 96 | * EmotionlessGirl: She is pretty emotionless sometimes, though occasionally shifting to TheStoic level when really, really worked up. Naturally, she's such an expert at PerpSweating that her gaze alone accomplishes what Wolverine's famed "claw on either side of neck; dare me to pop the middle?" approach cannot. |
| 97 | * EnemyWithin: Inverted. After recovering from BecomingTheMask, she is bequeathed a [[MySkullRunnethOver dying goddess' knowledge]], leading to her "mask" -- Diana -- personality trying to take over. Diana is so heroic, she ends up [[SplitPersonalityMerge sacrificing herself]] to save Sage's life, knowing Sage would never do the same for her. |
| 98 | * FacialMarkings: Has a pair of black markings below her eyes. |
| 99 | * FightsLikeANormal: Sage's powers enhance her mind and body, rather than providing a natural force advantage. She uses modern weapons that can benefit from her [[ImprobableAimingSkills uncanny precision]], such as [[ColdSniper rifles]], [[GunsAkimbo hand guns]], and knives. If unarmed, she'll try to take a weapon from someone else before trying to fight hand-to-hand. |
| 100 | * GadgeteerGenius: Downplayed. Her obvious gadgets are her [[GogglesDoSomethingUnusual cybernetic shades]] and the related computer surveillance network. She's far more secretive about what other gadgets she has in her UtilityBelt. |
| 101 | * GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: In ''X-Treme X-Men'', Sage starts wearing "[[CoolShades cybernetic shades]]", serving as both EverythingSensor and HolographicTerminal. |
| 102 | * HappyEndingOverride: Her (involuntary but not unwelcome) ascent to [[GodInHumanForm god-like]] omniscience was undone when the next series of ''ComicBook/{{Exiles}}'' was written, leaving her and her previous team in [[PutOnABus suspended animation]]. |
| 103 | * InstantExpert: A single lesson in any skill will be enough for the rest of her life. |
| 104 | * TheLeader: She is the true leader of X-Force, after the team loses all trust in Beast. Domino won't even make a move until Sage gives the green light and she tells Beast to just shove it. |
| 105 | * TheManBehindTheMan: |
| 106 | ** Was the true leader of Excalibur while she was on that team. Brian Braddock and Pete Wisdom would argue with eachother over the title, while Sage would be the one actually giving directions. |
| 107 | ** Arguably this with X-Force as well, even before Beast was kicked from his position. While the team heard Beast, they listened to her, because she had the real information flow and because they actually trustet her. |
| 108 | * MissionControl: This is her main function at Krakoa, monitoring all movement to and from the island and directing traffic through Krakoa's gateways or directing responses to hostile incursions. |
| 109 | * MostCommonSuperPower: From her early corset wearing Hellfire Club days to being an X-Man, she's drawn with big D-cup size breasts. |
| 110 | * MySkullRunnethOver: When the goddess [[spoiler:Roma, daughter of Merlin]] is dying, she bequeaths her cosmic-level knowledge directly into Sage's mind, leading to a case of EnemyWithin that makes it very hard to deal with the [[TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeanttoKnow mind phantoms]]. The only way Sage can survive is to become [[GodinHumanForm god-like]] herself. |
| 111 | * NoNameGiven: She was originally introduced as "Tessa", though it was later revealed that this is not her first legal name. Sage only ever uses her codename, even when talking to herself. |
| 112 | * OfCorsetsSexy: She used to wear corsets when she was in Hellfire Club. |
| 113 | * {{Omniglot}}: She claimed to be fluent in over one hundred and twenty languages.[[note]]It's hard to tell if she's been slacking, just how many human languages are documented well enough to learn without a teacher?[[/note]] |
| 114 | * PhotographicMemory: She's able to store everything that she experiences in a photographic memory and retrieve it immediately without the typical human pause for thought. She's also unable to forget any mistake she's ever made. |
| 115 | * PowersAsPrograms: Sage understands how mutant powers work because she can telekinetically perceive a mutant's DNA and has the raw computational power to accurately model the power in action. Altering that DNA allows her to initialise or alter powers in other mutants.[[note]]That she has these abilities makes her fellow mutants ''very'' nervous.[[/note]] |
| 116 | * PsychicBlockDefense: Sage typically turns her psychic powers inward, making her mind [[ImmuneToMindControl nearly impenetrable]]. Not only does this allow her to NoSell almost any psychic manipulation attempt, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard she can also reflect such attacks]]. |
| 117 | * ShoutOut: She's been likened to a Mentat from the Franchise/{{Dune}} series. |
| 118 | * TheSmartGuy: During her first stint with the X-Treme X-Men team, she was the main brains behind the team. A villainous face from her past [[BaddieFlattery even admires]] her precision of mind. |
| 119 | -->''"My code-name defines my being. I observe, I analyze, I draw conclusions based on the data. If necessary, I act on those conclusions."'' |
| 120 | --->-- ''ComicBook/XTremeXMen'' #20 |
| 121 | * SnapBack: In the second volume of ''ComicBook/X-Treme X-Men'', she is encountered in another universe by a team of multiverse-travelling X-Men with no explanation of how she got there. This event being so improbable, the new writer had to insist that she was actually the original character, not some alternate version. |
| 122 | * SociopathicHero: After growing up in war-torn countries, she considers societal rules optional. She will be tactless, avoid parties, and kill a room full of enemy soldiers when her [[ThouShaltNotKill teammates aren't watching]]. Has mostly given this up by the time of the Krakoan age. |
| 123 | * SuperEmpowering: In ''X-Treme X-Men'', Sage demonstrates the ability to "jump-start" powers in other mutants. |
| 124 | ** Saved Beast's life when he was dying, but inadvertently caused him to mutate into his cat-like form.[[note]]Chris Claremont inserted this scene to explain Beast's new appearance in Grant Morrison's New X-Men, which was being released simultaneously at the time.[[/note]] |
| 125 | ** Enhanced Rogue's power, giving her full recall of [[AllYourPowersCombined all psyches and their powers]] that she ever absorbed. |
| 126 | ** Unlocked Slipstream's power for the first time, after identifying him as a latent mutant. |
| 127 | ** Restored Gambit's powers to him after he lost them. |
| 128 | ** Temporarily enhanced Gambit's powers to allow his own low-level healing factor to heal a case of blindness. |
| 129 | ** May or may not have enhanced Lifeguard's powers, causing her to [[BlessedWithSuck lose the ability to regain human form]]. |
| 130 | * TechnoWizard: Though she lacks true {{Technopath}}y, she has created computer systems so capable that she can effortlessly hack not only every muggle system connected to the Internet, but the security systems of alien invaders. [[note]]When a technopathic enemy does manage to MindControl her through her own tech, she retaliates with a black hole.[[/note]] |
| 131 | * {{Telepathy}}: Subverted. She has high-level telepathic abilities, and was trained by [[ComicBook/ProfessorX Charles Xavier]], but her natural and ''preferred'' expression of this power is a permanent PsychicBlockDefense that works in both directions. |
| 132 | * UtilityBelt: Her costumes usually include a utility belt and additional scattered pouches, but she [[UselessAccessory rarely]] pulls anything out of those pockets. |
| 133 | -->'''Black Tom Cassidy:''' Why you wearing that, love?\ |
| 134 | '''Sage:''' I was told we were going into the field. I wanted to be ready for anything.\ |
| 135 | '''Black Tom Cassidy:''' It's like you got measles, but the measles is pockets. |
| 136 | * WineIsClassy: Before [[ComicBook/DawnOfX Krakoa-as-a-nation]], she was frequently seen drinking red wine. |

| 169 | * NighInvulnerability: Paul was virtually invulnerable, although he was proved to be possibly hurt, as Northstar was able to make him nose-bleed, using his super-speed to punch him. He was even immune to Magneto's attempt to manipulate the iron within his own blood. |

| 214 | Xorn is a mutant with a tiny star inside his head. After joining the X-Men, he became addicted to the drug Kick and began to believe himself to be Magneto. |
| 215 | ---- |
| 216 | * BecomingTheMask: Xorn's character was originally supposed to be [[spoiler:Magneto in disguise, though this was later {{retcon}}ned. In the revised continuity, Xorn is a Chinese mutant who, under the influence of a drug called Kick, took on Magneto's identity in order to enforce his supremacist ideals, eventually convincing himself that he really was the person he was impersonating]]. |
| 217 | * ContinuitySnarl: In ''ComicBook/NewXMen'', Xorn was just an identity fabricated by Magneto so he could infiltrate and destabilize the X-Men from within. Later stories {{Retcon}}ned this so that Xorn was a separate character, a Chinese mutant who deluded himself into thinking he was Magneto after being exposed to the drug Kick. One issue of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe then claimed that Xorn was a duplicate of Magneto, a result of the Scarlet Witch altering reality after [[ComicBook/AvengersDisassembled losing control of her powers]]. The confusion about who he really is, as well as his connection to Magneto, is acknowledged in-universe: When Vision says [[ComicBook/NewAvengers his files on Xorn are incomplete]], Wolverine retorts that "Xorn's files on Xorn are incomplete", implying that not even Xorn is sure of his true nature at this point. |

| 241 | !!!'''Notable Aliases:''' Ripcord, Mira, X-Stacy |
| 242 | !!!'''Nationality:''' American, Krakoan |
| 243 | !!!'''Species:''' Human mutant |
| 244 | !!!'''First Appearance:''' ''Uncanny X-Men'' #399 (December, 2001) |
| 245 | |
| 246 | Originally a mutant working at a brothel in Nevada, Stacy X became a member of the X-Men using her Pheromone powers to help out her team. Depowered during M-Day she joined the New Warriors when she suddenly had her abilities back in ''Vengeance''. A later appearance in ''Domino'' revealed she was using make up to simulate her old appearance and was possibly suicidal. As of ''Way Of X'' she's now officially repowered again and has made it a mission to look after the abandoned children of Krakoa while spreading information on safe sex. |
| 247 | ---- |
| 248 | * AbusiveParents: Her stepfather became abusive to her once her mutant powers awakened. Once during his beatings, she accidentally used her powers on him, causing him to become violently ill and her own mother threw her out of the house. |
| 249 | * ActionGirl: She's a capable martial artist even without her powers, being able to give Wolverine a run for his money. |
| 250 | * AntiHero: When she first joined the X-Men she didn't care much for their rules or even their cause, as she thought co-existent with humans was a hopeless dream. After losing her powers she TookALevelInKindness and by Hickman's run, she's almost saintly. |
| 251 | * BlackBraAndPanties: Wears a leather pair. |
| 252 | * BroughtDownToNormal: Lost her powers after ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'' thanks to the Scarlet Witch. Somehow she appeared to have gained them back during the ''Vengeance'' miniseries, but a later story revealed she was using make-up to simulate her old appearance. |
| 253 | * BrutalHonesty: She doesn't hold back her opinions, even when she knows people won't like what she has to say. |
| 254 | * BuildingSwing: As Ripcord, she had webbing like Spider-Man. |
| 255 | * ClothesMakeTheSuperman: During a period after she lost her powers, she joined the New Warriors under the {{Codename}} Ripcord, and all of her new abilities came from the frictionless suit she wore. |
| 256 | * CombatStilettos: Wears a pair of black knee-high stiletto heels. |
| 257 | * DeathIsCheap: Thought to have died in an explosion as Ripcord, but she survived and has her mutant powers back. |
| 258 | * DefiantStrip: When Warren/Archangel picked Paige/Husk over her, she left him a video of her jumping rope naked for him so he'd "know what he missed out on". |
| 259 | * DroppedABridgeOnHer: In ''New Warriors'' she seemingly got killed in an explosion during a fight with S.H.I.E.L.D. taskforce, but would later have revealed to have survived, though the incident made her abandon the Ripcord persona entirely. |
| 260 | * EthicalSlut: She isn't ashamed of her past as a sex worker or her sexuality, seeing it as a perfectly valid way to earn a living. In Krakoa she tries to become a sex-positive influence on the younger mutants, handing out contraceptives and having SafeSaneAndConsensual sexual relationships. |
| 261 | * {{Fetish}}: Particularly for her clients -- she's a successful prostitute despite having scaly skin and snake eyes. |
| 262 | * FlatCharacter: As Ripcord in ''New Warriors'', she got barely any characterization [[OutOfFocus or focus]], and her personality was very generic, seemingly not carrying any of the traits of her previous appearances. |
| 263 | * ForcedOrgasm: Her {{Pheromone|s}} control powers let her induce orgasms on people via touch. She used this to great effect while working as a sex worker, but could also weaponize it, as she once incapacitated Blob by giving him several orgasms until he passed out. |
| 264 | * HellBentForLeather: Seems to prefer it over any other article of clothing. |
| 265 | * HiddenDepths: In later years Stacy has begun to receive more noticeable depth due to the changing perceptions of sex workers and sexually active women such as herself beyond being exotic eye candy. |
| 266 | ** Under her creator Creator/JoeCasey, she [[CharacterDevelopment gradually started to open up]] to the other members of the team. Later writers ignored this. |
| 267 | ** Her appearance in the ''ComicBook/{{Domino|MarvelComics}}'' annual revealed how deeply unhappy (and possibly suicidal) she was without her powers since they allowed her to experience the world on a deeper, more meaningful level than most people. |
| 268 | ** When mutants start abandoning their babies in Krakoa, Stacy creates an unofficial orphanage for them. |
| 269 | * HolierThanThou: Isn't afraid to call people out on this when they start questioning her line of work, and does so to Nightcrawler, now a leader in mutant government for the fall out of the "Make More Mutants" law forcing her to start up an orphanage for all the babies getting born. |
| 270 | * LeeroyJenkins: During her first mission against the Church of Humanity bigots that killed her friends, she got overly aggressive and ended up getting captured by them, and needed to get rescued by the rest of her team. |
| 271 | * LivingAphrodisiac: Her {{Pheromone|s}} powers allow her to feel and control the lust of people around her. |
| 272 | * MsFanservice: Her outfits are often very {{Stripperiffic}} and her a lot of her {{pheromone|s}} control powers revolve around its PowerPerversionPotential. |
| 273 | * TheNicknamer: Tends to give nicknames to people, such as calling Warren "Birdman", Kurt "Fuzzy", and Scott "Cykes". |
| 274 | * NotGoodWithRejection: She left the X-Men due to being unable to handle being rejected by both Warren and Kurt after she hit on both. |
| 275 | * OrphanageOfLove: She runs a daycare/orphanage for abandoned mutant babies in Krakoa. |
| 276 | * {{Pheromones}}: She can control other's pheromones through skin contact, producing sensations and physical reactions in anyone she touches. Being a former prostitute, she usually used this power to cause orgasmic pleasure, although she once used it to relieve the pain of a terminally ill man who couldn't be helped with traditional drugs. |
| 277 | * ProudBeauty: She was rather proud of being a [[SnakesAreSexy sexy scaly appearance]] and was very distressed about losing it once she lost her powers, to the point she even tried to paint over her skin to make it look like her old self. |
| 278 | * PunnyName: Stacy X has the power to induce '''ecstacy''' with a touch. Or nausea, but that's not punny. She was originally meant to be called "X Stacy", but due to publishing errors, the Stacy X name stuck. |
| 279 | * SexGoddess: PlayedWith. She was very popular as a sex worker due to the ecstasy she brought to her clients, but this was mostly due to her {{Pheromone|s}} control powers [[PowerPerversionPotential allowing her to give them orgasm after orgasm]] with just a touch. Although her appearance in ''Vengeance'' shows that she's great in bed even without her powers, thanks to her [[FlexibilityEqualsSexAbility flexibility]]. |
| 280 | * SheFu: Her fighting style has her doing a lot of acrobatics. |
| 281 | * SlipperySkid: As Ripcord, she had a completely frictionless suit, webbing aside. |
| 282 | * SlutShaming: Often got shamed by her own teammates for her EthicalSlut tendencies. She almost got into a fight with Monet once when she called her a "mutant prostitute hitching a ride." |
| 283 | * SoleSurvivor: She was the only mutant from the X-Ranch that the X-Men managed to save when human bigots attack it. |
| 284 | * SnakePeople: She's a sexy, sexy, snake-woman, it's mainly skin and eyes but she is a flexible fighter. |
| 285 | * SnakesAreSexy: InUniverse, it's part of what makes her exotic for where she works and distinctive. |
| 286 | * StockingFiller: Her IconicOutfit has her wearing these in her early years. |
| 287 | * TheTease: She enjoys flirting and teasing people, even if she doesn't like them, just to get under their skin. She especially enjoys doing this to Kurt, due to his religious background. |
| 288 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: She likes canned pasta a lot, mostly due to eating a lot of it as a child. |
| 289 | * WalkingSwimsuitScene: What her outfit looks like. |
| 290 | * WhatTheHellHero: She calls out Nightcrawler on his unfounded moral outrage to her promoting safe sex on Krakoa by pointing out the "Make more mutants" creed has led to people giving birth to children they're carelessly abandoning. While she's doing what she can to look after the abandoned newborns until they're adopted, she's taking steps to stop more unwanted pregnancies and prevent the spread of [=STDs=]. Kurt, who clearly had not thought this through, is left in stammering shock and not coincidentally, the "make more mutants" policy is adapted to be more focused on resurrecting the dead of mutant genocides past. |

| 300 | Heather and Davis Cameron were a lifeguard and a surfer, respectively, living in Surfers Paradise in Australia. Unbeknownst to them, their father is an underworld crime lord known as Viceroy, and upon his death they were attacked. Together with Storm and Neal Shaara (the new Thunderbird), they managed to defeat their attackers. Heather discovered she was a mutant with the power to manifest whatever was necessary to save the life of someone in danger around her, including her own. Her power enabled her to manifest wings, golden armor, the ability to breathe underwater, and many other less noticeable adaptations. Heather soon joined the splinter team of X-Men, and formed a romance with Thunderbird. |
| 301 | ---- |
| 302 | * TheCameo: She appeared very briefly in ''ComicBook/XForce2019'' at a party on Krakoa. |
| 303 | * FacialMarkings: Manifested alongside her powers. Its design tends to change, along with her powers. |
| 304 | * HalfHumanHybrid: During the "Invasion" arc of the ''X-Treme X-Men'' (2001) title, it is revealed her father is the very much human Viceroy of the Sydney's criminal underworld, while her mother, though never revealed, is of Shi'ar descent (the Shi'ar being a race of avian-based aliens). |
| 305 | * MostCommonSuperPower She has a big bust. Which is currently golden. |
| 306 | * PutOnABus: Twice: |
| 307 | ** After ''X-Treme X-Men'' #19, she and Thunderbird leave the team to search for her brother Slipstream. |
| 308 | ** She reappears in ''Excalibur'' (2004) #5, as part of the X-Corp Indian Branch, then vanishes again. |
| 309 | * ReallyRoyaltyReveal: Also during the "Invasion" arc, her body shapeshifted to an avian form to trick an invading alien army which recognized her as "Shi'ar royalty". Later, back on Earth, Jean sees her facial markings and also notice they indicate she is royalty. This means she is possibly distantly related to mad emperor D'Ken, Empress Lil'andra and their AxCrazy sister Deathbird, members of the Shi'ar royal family thar recur in the X-Men stories. |
| 310 | * ShapeshifterModeLock: She remains stuck in a half Shi'ar form. |
| 311 | * StatuesqueStunner: Her current height is ''7ft'' tall, and even before that she was still 5'10"/178cm tall. |
| 312 | * VoluntaryShapeshifting: Of a sort. Her power is to develop whatever physical ability best helps her save lives, initially ''specifically'' someone else's life and not her own. Wings, armored skin, multiple limbs, SuperStrength... the thing is, she can't predict the form it'll take. She hasn't looked fully human in some time. |

| 322 | He and his sister Heather lived perfectly normal lives at Surfers Paradise in Australia. They did not know that their actual father was an underworld crime lord known as Viceroy, and upon his death they were attacked. When Heather's life was endangered, Davis was informed by Sage that although he was never meant to be a mutant (his latent mutant gene was supposed to be passed down to his children) his mutant power might be helpful to her. He agreed to let her activate it, gaining a teleportational ability in the form of the "warp wave". Together with Storm and Thunderbird III, he and his sister manage to defeat their attackers. Following these events, both siblings join Storm's team of X-Men. Davis had a brief romance with Storm. |

| 376 | |
| 377 | Shen Xorn is the brother of Kuan-Yin Xorn and wanted to make up for the horrible deeds of his brother. Unlike his brother, he has a black hole for a head, rather than a star. Following the Decimation, Shen was depowered. More recently, he has been in contact with Magneto's Uncanny X-Men. |
| 378 | ---- |
| 379 | * AbortedArc: When he was first introduced, he claimed that it was not Magneto who had attacked New York (which was true and turned out to be his evil twin) but also that it was "someone else... someone I still sense within your midst." This was never referenced again, and turned out to be complete horse manure with the revelation that it was in fact Xorn I who attacked New York. |
| 380 | * CanNotSpitItOut: Related to the Aborted Arc entry; Xorn apparently knew the identity of the person pretending to be Magneto and claimed to know who it was and that it was someone within the X-Men's midst, but never got around to telling them '''who''' it was. The meta explanation for this is that it was Chuck Austen trying to ape Chris Claremont by dropping a bunch of dangling plot hooks on the way, but like the other hints (Cassandra Nova implied to possess Carter and Gambit being turned into a blind precog), this was forgotten and buried after Austen's departure. |
| 381 | * ContinuitySnarl: Comes with being (a) Xorn, he's where the ball starts rolling, trying to undo the "Xorn was Magneto" story by saying that no, that Xorn was a real guy who thought he was Magneto, and... |
| 382 | * ComboPlatterPowers: He's got {{Telepathy}}, is TheNeedless, and can be a GravityMaster via the miniature black hole in his head. |
| 383 | * CoolHelmet: Same as his brother Xorn. |
| 384 | * CreepyTwins / ThoseTwoGuys: With Zorn in ''ComicBook/WayOfX'' |
| 385 | * DeathIsCheap: ''X-Men: Blue'' has him supposedly sacrifice himself to destroy Bastion. He returns in the first issue of ''House of X''. |
| 386 | * DePower: He was said to have lost his powers on M-Day, but befitting his continuity-snarled backstory turned up again with them later. |
| 387 | * DeusExitMachina: An amusing literal example, as he was the exit machina that sucked Exodus's Brotherhood away from their attack on the X-Men and out of reality. |
| 388 | * GentleGiant: Not by Western standards, but at 6'2 both him and his brother are much taller than the average Chinese person. |
| 389 | * GlowingEyes: Has these through his mask. |
| 390 | * MagicalAsian: Well, with mutant power instead of magic, but he's still the stock "serene wise master who can kick ass when he wants and is usually meditating" character this trope describes. |
| 391 | * OneSteveLimit: With his brother, Xorn. In fairness, it's their family name. Alternate versions, starting with the Ultimate universe, tend to get around this by having Chen's name be spelled "Zorn". |
| 392 | * PutOnABusToHell: Serving double duty as the bus, he dragged Black Tom, Nocturne and most of the Brotherhood away with his black hole. They turned out to have been dragged off to Mojoworld, the poor bastards. |
| 393 | * RedeemingReplacement: The first Xorn was a madman who thought he was Magneto at his worst. This Xorn is the serene Buddhist ally to the X-Men his brother pretended to be. |
| 394 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Like Kwannon / Psylocke II above, he is this on a meta level. Even though Xorn I's persona was completely fake, fans liked it so much that the writers decided to give him an identical twin brother in the form of this guy. |
| 395 | * RetCanon: The Zorn name is taken from the Ultimate incarnation of the Xorn brothers, where Chen goes Zorn to differentiate him from his brother. |
| 396 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name has also been spelled as "Shen Xorn". |
| 397 | * TechnicalPacifist: He's a nice guy who'd rather not fight. But that black hole head makes him very dangerous when pushed. |

| 471 | A young student at the Xavier Institute, Hisako was taken under the wing of Wolverine after being abducted alongside several X-Men to Breakworld. After proving herself to be a great asset to the team, Hisako continued to serve as a back-up member of the X-Men until finally graduating and joining the team on a permanent basis. On Krakoa she joined the New Mutants squad to seek out and help mutants who had yet to make it to the new mutant nation. |
| 472 | ---- |
| 473 | * AchillesHeel: Her armor proves vulnerable to [[EnergyWeapon Frickin' Laser Beams]] since, as she puts it, [[LogicalWeakness "The armor has to let light through"]]. She also shows vulnerability to adamantium, though flesh cannot reach through, so the TropeNamer WolverineClaws don't always reach to her. |
| 474 | * AmbiguouslyBi: She's shown flirting and going on three-way dates between herself, Pixie and young Cable. Also a case of {{Polyamory}}. |
| 475 | * AncestralWeapon: Her armor is described as being powered by the line of her ancestors, and actually becomes more powerful when people in her family die. |
| 476 | * AscendedFangirl: A great admirer of the X-Men, now she's a relatively prominent member. |
| 477 | * BestFriend: Edward Tancredi, aka "Wing", a fellow student at Xavier's was hers. He was depowered by Ord with the mutant cure and later manipulated into committing suicide by Danger, which left Hisako devastated. |
| 478 | * BreakoutCharacter: Of Creator/JossWhedon's run on ComicBook/AstonishingXMen. |
| 479 | * CuteBruiser: Hisako is a 5'4" (1.52 meters), 112 pound (50.8 kilos), cute and quippy Japanese girl. She can also flip over tanks. |
| 480 | * DependingOnTheArtist: Anything from the shape, size and color of her armor tends to change with every new artist, and sometimes even by the same artist during the same story. This is justified as she has control over what it can look like, and has gotten better at changing it up to adapt to the situations she encounters on her missions. |
| 481 | * ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Introduced with a rather long HimeCut, in the subsequent years she went for a chin-length hime style, and during Age of X-Man she cut it all the way to BoyishShortHair. Nowadays she has a more, open-to-the-sides style. For the ComicBook/HellfireGala she has actually regrown it back to her long hime cut, albeit more stylized. |
| 482 | * FastballSpecial: Does it with Wolverine a couple of times ([[PintsizedPowerhouse with Hisako doing the throwing]]). |
| 483 | * FieldPromotion: How she made the team. |
| 484 | * FutureBadass: According to at least one timeline, she grows up to lead the X-Men. |
| 485 | * InstantArmor: Since it's made of energy, her armor manifests instantly. |
| 486 | * KidAppealCharacter: Complete with becoming Wolverine's sidekick; she is basically the successor to Kitty, Jubilee, and Movie Rogue in that respect. |
| 487 | * LikeADaughterToMe: Her relationship with Logan. When he died she was able to feel his memory and presence in her armor, which had only previously happened when her brother and mother died. |
| 488 | * LittleMissSnarker: Fitting for a former Wolverine sidekick, she's short and can get pretty snarky. |
| 489 | * PlatonicLifePartners: With Glob Herman of all people. |
| 490 | * RunningGag: Complaining that her codename sucks, though she seems to be over it by now. |
| 491 | * SecretKeeper: Decides to hide the fact that Manon and Maxime altered the memories of Beak, Angel, and their kids to make them think that Beak's parents died peacefully years earlier instead of being murdered by cartel members seeking Krakoan medicine, as revealing it after the fact would only cause more pain to them and get the kids in trouble. |
| 492 | * SixthRanger: Never part of the ''Academy X'' teams, she still joins them for a mission during [[ComicBook/XMenMessiahComplex Messiah Complex]]. |
| 493 | * {{Sizeshifter}}: Kinda, her body remains the same size, but she can make her armor grow hundreds of feet tall, as well as becoming strong enough to beat [[{{Kaiju}} Fin Fang Foom]] into submission with seemingly little effort. |
| 494 | * VitriolicBestBuds: When she and Wolverine aren't busy being {{Mentor|Archetype}}/{{Sidekick}}, most of their interactions come off as this. |
| 495 | * WhatTheHellHero: Calls out Manon and Maxime for their alteration of Beak, Angel, and their children's memories, and explains to the twins that they can't just "help" people get over grief by changing their memories and that they denied them an actual grieving process. |
| 496 | * WolverineClaws: Has shown the ability to shape her armor into these, although only seen using them once in actual combat - against a [[ThouShaltNotKill non-human]] opponent. |

Although he was one of the X-Men's most troublesome and problematic students for years, Glob eventually sought to change himself for the better.

| 731 | ---- |
| 732 | * AbusiveParents: His father was a member of a group of anti-mutant bigots who dragged young Robert to anti-mutant rallies. When his mutation manifested, his father would beat him for any reason he could find. Eventually his mother snuck him out of the house in the middle of the night and dropped him off at Xavier's school, warning him to never call or come home. |
| 733 | * AnimalLover: Developed an affinity for chickens in the ''Age of X-Man'', which carried over to his time on Krakoa as he maintains a coop. |
| 734 | * ApologeticAttacker: As he's about to kill his old friend Kid Omega in ''ComicBook/WolverineAndTheXMenMarvelComics'', he sends him a psychic apology, explaining that he was too scared to deny his evil commanders and enforcers. Kid Omega, in response, [[PreAssKickingOneLiner apologizes for what he's about to do.]] |
| 735 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Though he was originally a mutant extremist with no qualms about torturing and killing humans, he mellowed out significantly with age. This was until he confronted the owner of the website dedicated to doxing mutants, whom he bluntly told that if one more mutant was hurt because of this site, he would track him down and kill him, even if it meant facing Krakoa's capital punishment for killing a human. |
| 736 | * BlobMonster: His skin is biogenic paraffin wax, making him see through with his skeleton and organs all visible. |
| 737 | * BoomerangBigot: He was raised to hate mutants by his father, only for him to turn out to be one. He hated himself for a while after before turning his hatred towards humanity for rejecting and mistreating him. |
| 738 | * CallToAgriculture: On Krakoa he built a chicken coop which he tends to in between missions. This is seemingly influenced by the life he lived in the alternate ''ComicBook/AgeOfXMan'' reality. |
| 739 | * CharacterDevelopment: Started out as a violent member of Quinten Quire's Omega Gang who once tried to set a bus of humans on fire. Now he is a full-fledged X-Man who seeks to solve conflicts with as little violence as possible, even when fighting gang members who threaten the lives of mutant children. |
| 740 | * FaceHeelTurn: Joined the Hellfire Academy after coming to believe that his classmates and the X-Men didn't respect him. It didn't stick, as he rejoined the Jean Grey Academy after the Hellfire Academy was shut down. |
| 741 | * ImmuneToFire: Fire and heat have little effect on him, at most briefly catching him on fire. However, in ''ComicBook/AgeOfXMan'', he is visibly much smaller after [[ItMakesSenseInContext melting a significant amount of his wax onto Armor]], and he might be in danger if he burns long enough for it to reach his bones or organs. |
| 742 | * ImmuneToMindControl: He's the one person, bar Bishop (who has all kinds of alternate reality hijinks to render him immune), who was unaffected by Nate Grey's reality warp in ''ComicBook/AgeOfXMan''. It's not clear why, though given that everyone in the world got their greatest desires [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor (in theory)]], it might have come from that. Unfortunately, no one else is similarly immune. |
| 743 | * NighInvulnerability: He's withstood some incredible things, such as being on the ''outside'' of a rocket crashing back down to earth and a bomb strapped to his chest going off. In the former case, he saw some splattering, but quickly recovered. In the latter case, there was no visible damage to his body, and all he could say was "I'm sorry." The only thing that can do real damage to him is bladed weapons. |
| 744 | * OddFriendship: Develops one with Mojo of all beings in ''ComicBook/XMenBlack'' due to their [[CommonalityConnection their unconventional and unattractive forms]]. |
| 745 | * ReformedBully: Started out as a stupid, cruel thug for Kid Omega. Starting with ''ComicBook/SpiderManAndTheXMen'', he started to show a selfless side, and by the time Krakoa came along, he was a fully positive influence to younger mutants [[AnimalLover and chickens]]. |
| 746 | * SecretKeeper: Along with Armor he is the only one who knows that Manon and Maxime altered Beak and Angel's memories but is hiding this fact due to the extra distress and complications that would arise from revealing the truth. |
| 747 | * SuperStrength: He is quite strong and able to easily subdue normal humans in hand-to-hand combat. |
| 748 | * SuperToughness: It's nearly impossible to hurt him thanks to the unique make-up of his skin. Even a bomb strapped to his chest didn't leave a scratch on him. The most he has ever been hurt has been when he was strapped to the front of a rocket to substitute for a heat-resistant tip to get back to Earth, and that was only a few broken bones. |
| 749 | * TookALevelInBadass: In the hellish Age of Apocalypse mental simulation that he, Rockslide, Pixie, and Armor were trapped in with Nate Grey, when Legion was trying to keep the latter locked away. It lasted five minutes, but it felt like months, and Glob became powerful enough to take Rockslide in a fight. |
| 750 | * TookALevelInKindness: Several levels: after his history of rioting and betraying the school, Glob mellowed out considerably, starting with learning lessons in heroism from Spider-Man's special class at the institute. This change is acknowledged in ''ComicBook/NewMutants2019'', in which Glob tells Magik that he had an epiphany one day about how he had become a hateful man like his father and wanted to change. |
| 751 | * WreathedInFlames: His body is made of what is essentially living wax, making him highly flammable. He isn't hurt by this so in combat he can light himself on fire. |

| 761 | Petra was a mutant with the power to manipulate earth. |
| 762 | ---- |
| 763 | * AttemptedRape: Her foster dad attempted this, but she managed to stop him with the first conscious use of her powers. She then ran because he realized she was a mutant and she knew he might kill her. |
| 764 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:Subverted. She was thought to have been resurrected by the Five on Krakoa until it was pointed out she died before Cerebro existed. It turned out the Petra seen on Krakoa was an energy construct Vulcan created]]. |
| 765 | * CruelAndUnusualDeath: She's roasted alive by a very angry Krakoa. |
| 766 | * DishingOutDirt: She's a geokinetic. While homeless in New York, she carved a home for herself out of a rock bluff in Central Park and made money by turning coal into diamonds. |
| 767 | * DominoMask: Has a green one. |
| 768 | * ForgottenFallenFriend: As with the rest of her team, because Professor X wiped everyone's memory of her. And just to add insult to death, even after Darwin and Vulcan come back from the dead, neither seem to give any particular thought to either girl again. ''X-Men: Legacy'' at least indicated that Charles feels guilty about their deaths. She's certainly not forgotten by Vulcan, who subconsciously creates energy constructs of her and Sway in the Krakoa era. When they're on the verge of actually being resurrected, the others try to break it to him that they're not real. [[{{Understatement}} Vulcan reacts badly]]. |
| 769 | * FosterKid: She was put into the foster system after her parents died. She was stuck in a small room with five kids, a foster mom who smoked and didn't care about the kids, and a foster dad who tried to rape her. |
| 770 | * HardDrinkingPartyGirl: She spends most of her time getting drunk at the Summer House on the moon. Not surprising that she wouldn’t want to spend time on Krakoa. Then it turns out that [[spoiler: she's actually an energy construct that Vulcan created to cope]]. |
| 771 | * LightFeminineDarkFeminine: She's the Light to Sway's dark, being blonde with a green and white costume. |
| 772 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: As she died, she used her powers to try and save the still barely alive Darwin and Vulcan. Unfortunately, this had the side effect of saving Vulcan, who when he returned to Earth came back pretty damn pissed. |
| 773 | * NoNameGiven: We never learn her given name, and even the X-Men's gravestone for her just calls her Petra. |
| 774 | * ParentalAbandonment: His parents and brother died in a rockslide when she was young, with her being the only survivor thanks to her abilities. |
| 775 | * RememberTheNewGuy: Petra, along with Darwin, Vulcan and Sway, was introduced in ''Deadly Genesis'' claiming they'd been around before the ''All-New'' team. |
| 776 | * SurvivorGuilt: After figuring out what her mutant power was, Petra felt guilty about her family's deaths, believing that she either caused the accident or could have saved them. |

| 786 | Sway was a mutant with time-stopping powers, and was a member of the X-men. |
| 787 | ---- |
| 788 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:Subverted. She was initially thought to have been resurrected by the Five on Krakoa until it was pointed out she died before Cerebro existed. It was revealed the Sway who'd been hanging around Vulcan was a construct he created]]. |
| 789 | * CleavageWindow: Her suit came with an opening for her cleavage. |
| 790 | * CruelAndUnusualDeath: Sway's sliced in half by a Krakoa construct. |
| 791 | * ForgottenFallenFriend: The same deal as Petra. |
| 792 | * HardDrinkingPartyGirl: She spends most of her time getting drunk at the Summer House on the moon. Not surprising that she wouldn’t want to spend time on Krakoa. Turns out that [[spoiler: she's an energy construct that Vulcan created to cope along with Petra]]. |
| 793 | * LightFeminineDarkFeminine: She's the Dark feminine, with her black hair and red and black costume to Petra's blonde hair and white and green outfit. |
| 794 | * MeaningfulName: Her code name, Sway, references her ability to stop time and follow the sway of time through echoes of past events. |
| 795 | * ParentalAbandonment: She and her parents were caught in the middle of a drive-by shooting during a gang war in Chinatown. She survived thanks to stopping the bullets coming towards her, but her parents were not so lucky. |
| 796 | * TimeStandsStill: She can slow down the passage of time. She can also see echoes of past events, and the first time she did this allowed her to follow the car with her parent's killers to their hideout and alert the police. |

| 820 | The forgotten third Summers brother, he was raised by the Shi'ar as a slave after the murder of his mother and later became a tyrannical emperor. During the Krakoa era, he was retrieved from the Fault, and apparently had gone sane. This was in fact a thin facade. He is an Omega-level mutant with the ability to manipulate all known forms of energy. |
