Code name: Professor X
A farsighted man, Professor X is gathering every mutant he can find (and persuade) to attend his Xavier Institute, which he has founded as a place where mutants can refine their powers in order to fully control them. Professor X believes that mutants are essentially no different from other people, and that once they learn to control their strange powers they will be able to fit comfortably into society. This philosophy runs counter to that of his former colleague Magnus (a.k.a. Magneto), who believes that Homo Superior (mutants) are the next step in evolution. Professor X fears that Magnus' extremism will lead to a mutant backlash, and is thus forced to thwart his activities, as well as those of other mutant fanatics. Should Magnus succeed in inspiring fear in humanity, then mutants will wind up being hunted, or worse... Professor X uses his supercomputer Cerebro to scan the globe for mutants, whom he then recruits for his school. Some of the mutants will be eager to join him. Others will reject his offer, choosing to go their own way. Outwardly, the Professor is kindhearted and warm, someone you can turn to when you feel bad. However, he can be secretive and even manipulative -- usually toward the end of protecting his students and mutant kind. He also has a hard bottom line. When disobeyed, he can be hard as stone, and can turn from kindly uncle to stern taskmaster in an instant. Outwardly, the Professor is kindhearted and warm, someone you can turn to when you feel bad.
