The Uncanny X-Men
MUTANTS AMONG US
The rights to the X-Men belong to Marvel Comics, their creator, and the movie studio that just put out the film. I am not worthy to breathe the same air as these fabulous people, and I hope they don't take umbrage to my small hero-worship here.
- Wolverine:
An amazing character, he's mysterious and tormented, and with a SNIKT!! can produce footlong blades from between each knuckle. He also has an amazing regenerative ability, so he could be several hundred years old, though he looks a hunky twenty-something.
- Cyclops:
A genuinely nice guy, he's the nominal strike force leader of the X-Men. (Professor Charles Xavier is the brains of the outfit.) He's married to/involved with Jean Grey. He shoots laser beams from his eyes, and has to continuously wear some space-age sunglasses to control it. He's very sweet, very protective, with a knack with small children.
- Jean Grey:
Also known as the Phoenix, she has the telekinetic powers. She's very intelligent and is some kind of a doctor.
- Storm:
As implied by her name, Storm controls the weather. She was worshipped as a goddess in Africa before she joined the crime-fighting squad.
- Professor X:
Charles Xavier, he founded the X-Men, and leads them in their fight. He uses his telepathy to stop the bad people.
- Rogue:
Graced with a streak of white hair, this spunky Southern Belle flirted briefly with the Dark Side of the Force before becoming good. If someone touches her skin, she absorbs their life-force. If it is a mutant, she briefly has the ability to use their power. It it NOT under conscious control.
- Magneto:
The Arch-Villain, it's quite understandable why he became this way. A survivor of the Nazi Holocaust, the persecution of mutants reminds him all too vividly of his own torment at the hands of the Germans. His power is creating magnetic fields.
- Mystique:
A villain, a shape-shifter, and a kick-butt figher, she takes the shape of different people to further Magneto's plans and to cause general mischief.
- Sabertooth:
A large, strong, drooly-beast-type thing, Sabertooth is Magneto's loyal puppy. I think we'll all agree on which FY character gets to be him.
- Toad:
Also a bad guy, Toad jumps and has a REALLY long tongue. He's generally icky.
- Other:___________
