Mastermind |
Name: Jason Wyngarde
Powers: Mastermind could project sophisticated illusions that fooled almost everyone
First appearance: The Toad, the Witch and the Wardrobe
He obviously lives in Venice (the boat at the beggining) and he lives day by day projecting images of himself that is pleasing to other people. I guess he takes his pride and joy out of fooling others and I think this may be good for his self-esteem lol (he's not great looking you see). Mastermind thinks he's a baddy but doesn't really seem to be...

Real Name: Jason Wyngarde
Class: mutant
Occupation: criminal , former subversive , former carnival mentalist
Affiliations: X-villain , rejected member of the Hellfire Club , former member of Factor Three and various Brotherhood of Evil Mutant incarnations
Scale of Operations: nationwide
Powers: Jason Wyngarde's sole mutant power is the generation of three-dimensional images. He has fooled such psychically powerful mutants as Professor X, Magneto, and the Phoenix (although he latter required a device which enhanced his power.) He is so skillful with his illusions that even when a character realizes that he is seeing an illusion, he will still subconsciously believe that it is real and act accordingly. Wyngarde can also make himself invisible by creating an illusion that he is not there. His illusions are visible to everyone who can see them, and include all sensory input (sound, touch, etc.) except smell, but they are not recorded on cameras, tape, or other recording mechanisms.
When with the Hellfire Club, Wyngarde used a device invented by Emma Frost's Frost Industries enabling him to access his target's brain directly. This "mindtap mechanism" also allowed him limited telepathy.
History: Nothing is known about Jason Wyngarde's life before the time when, while working as a carnival mentalist, he was enlisted by the mutant villain Magneto as a member of his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. At this time, Magneto sought to protect his fellow superhuman mutants from the persecution of normal human beings by conquering humanity and ruling the world himself. As a member of the Brotherhood, Mastermind battled the mutant heroes of the original X-Men team when attempting to take over the South American country of San Marco, but to no avail. Afterward, Magneto attempted to enlist the aid of the enigmatic alien being known as the Stranger. Angered, the Stranger transformed Mastermind into stone and transported Magneto, whom he captured, to another planet.
Eventually, Mastermind returned to normal and joined Factor Three, another organization of superhuman mutants bent on world conquest. However, Mastermind, learning that their leader was an extraterrestrial being, turned against Factor Three and joined the X-Men in defeating the group's leader.
He returned as a member of Magneto's Brotherhood, trying to mentally coerce the mutant known as Beast (who was not a part of the X-men at the time) to join them. Afterward, Magneto attempted to create the ultimate mutant, calling it Alpha, but the creation turned against Magneto and the Brotherhood, devolving them all into infants.
Eventually, Mastermind returned to normal once again. He applied for admission to the world-dominating Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club. To prove his worth, Mastermind sought to use his mutant powers as well as artificial means to psionically alter the personality of the X-Men member Phoenix so that she would willingly become the Inner Circle's new Black Queen. Unknown to Mastermind or anyone else, however, his victim was not really Phoenix but a cosmic entity, the Phoenix Force, which had duplicated Grey's form and personality. Mastermind succeeded in turning the false Grey into the new Black Queen, thus unintentionally triggering the process that would soon transform her into the insane Dark Phoenix. Before the latter transformation was complete, however, the false Grey broke free of Mastermind's control and opened his mind to all the psionic sense impressions she received from the cosmos. His mind overwhelmed, Mastermind fell into a catatonic state. The Inner Circle, as a result, rejected his application for membership.Again, Mastermind eventually returned to normal, but he remembered the glory of the cosmos he had perceived and felt tormented that he could no longer experience it. He decided to take revenge on all those he blamed for his failures, including the Inner Circle's White Queen (Emma Frost), the X-Men, and their mutual enemy, Mystique, who had slighted Mastermind in an unrecorded event. Mastermind disrupted the wedding between X-man Wolverine and Mariko Yashida. He later tried to manipulate the X-men into killing Madelyne Pryor, who was unknown at the time to be a clone of Jean Grey. Mastermind also tried to contact the Phoenix Force once again, contacting its then-current host, Rachel Summers, but he was defeated by Summers' team, Excalibur.Later, Wyngarde discovered he had somehow contracted the deadly Legacy Virus, a disease which affected only mutants. About the same time, Mastermind was targeted by the mutant-hunting X-Cutioner, but he was helped by the X-men. Wyngarde made peace with the X-Men and apologized to Jean Grey for his past misdeeds. Soon after, however, Wyngarde died from complications of the Legacy Virus.
