Pyro

(The 1980s)

Fire-controlling mutant, and one of the classic enemies of the X-Men. For now it covers the 1980s, since the main focus was on modelling his powers.

A spy/commando/assassin type with mutant powers, heavy hardware and decades of experience. As of April of 2021, this profile is being wholly redone as a two-parter. And yes, that's some very 1993 art right here.

Yukio the wild one

(Part 1)

The comic book version of Yukio, the quasi-suicidal punk ninja Tokyo girl. A close ally of both Wolverine and Storm. As of September of 2020, this profile had a style review, and was split in half since it was just over the threshold.

Avalanche

(Part #1 - 1980s)

A mutant operative with vibrational powers over the ground. As of July of 2020, this profile was entirely redone.

Freedom Force

A full profile for the government's superhuman response team. It was the 1980s, Mystique-led band of ne'er-do-wells.

Brotherhood of Evil Mutants

(Fourth roster, Mystique-led)

A team profile for the fourth version of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Which is the first one commanded by Mystique, during the early 1980s and the Days of future past X-Men story arc.

Skin

Skin was a member of Marvel's Generation X (a X-Men spin-off team) during the 1990s. Here are some old notes and stats about him.

Psylocke

(Profile #2 - Psychic ninja)

Second profile for Psylocke of the X-Men, covering the era from the Siege Perilous until the year 2000. As of August of 2019, our contributor Pawsplay used the focused psychic totality of his powers to append M&M stats to this article.

Stinger

(Wendy Sherman)

Minor lightning power. Obscure X-Men enemy, was with the Alliance of Evil for years. As of August of 2019, this profile had its voltage increased and received live M&M stats.

El Tigre

An obscure enemy of the early X-Men, then of Ka-Zar and Mockingbird, back in the days. He was never quite developed but he has ties to Latin American mobs, the Mayan gods, the Savage Land, oil cartels and other uncommon story elements. So there's potential here.

New Mutants

(Team profile #1 - Year One, part #1)

This team profile covers the original New Mutants as they were early on - a sort of "Year One" era. It's best to read this before the individual profiles. As of December of 2018, this profile was revised and expanded and corrected. Y'know, our usual overhauling work. So much work.

Jubilee

(Earliest (1989-1993), part #1)

This first character profile for Jubilee covers her childhood and the earliest years of her career, before Generation X.

Psylocke

(Profile #1 - Early)

Our first chronological profile for Betsy, covering her Captain Britain and X-Men career until the Siege Perilous. As of February of 2018, this profile had its illustrations psychically overhauled, and gained butterfly-shaped M&M stats.

Hellfire Club

(X-Men enemies) (Original Sebastian Shaw era, part 1)

First half of an extensive profile covering the Hellfire Club -- bad rich people who clash with the X-Men -- during the 1980s. In-universe that's when Shaw was Black King, out of universe that's when Claremont was writing.

Tessa

This covers the 1980-2000, pre-retcon Tessa as a Hellfire Club and Sebastian Shaw asset. At this point she's more of a background character, but an intriguing one. And fairly typical of the Claremont Era for the X-Men.

Warlock

(New Mutants)

This profile covers the classic career of Warlock, the techno-organic mutant alien among the New Mutants. There's also a fair bit of stuff about modelling his species' abilities.

Donald Pierce, the White King

The classic appearances of this evil cybernetic tycoon and former Hellfire Club member (as the White Bishop). Best known as a deadly enemy of the X-Men and Wolverine.

Black King

(Sebastian Shaw)

The classic appearances of this major enemy of the X-Men, the Black King of the Hellfire Club and CEO of Shaw Industries.

Transonic

A minor X-Men character with super-flight powers. Once a member of the Five Lights, but kinda forgotten since the Hope Summers plot petered out. As of July of 2017, this profile now has highly aerodynamic M&M stats.

Siryn

This is Siryn (Theresa Cassidy) from the beginning up to Feral's attack. So the bulk is X-Force appearances, I reckon. We advice caution as THIS PROFILE CONTAINS ROB LIEFELD ART. People with allergies should thus be careful.

Beef

A super-strongman who worked with the White Queen's Hellions during the early 1990s. As of May, 2017 this small profile was revised, and pumped up with M&M stats.

Bevatron

A minor foe of the New Warriors, who essentially shoots lightning. As of May, 2017 this small profile has been improved, and M&M stats were etched in using an electron beam.

Wolfsbane

(Profile #1 - 1982-1985)

Wolfsbane of the New Mutants during her earliest career (1982-1985), because everybody loves Rahne (and because it was getting weird not to have a profile for her).

X-Factor Investigations

The quirky collection of mutant investigators, as written by Peter "PAD" David in the 2006 to 2013 run of Marvel's X-Factor comic. This is one of 'em "base camp" profiles where we explain all the material shared between characters so it doesn't have to be presented in every single individual profile.

Magma

Magma of the New Mutants, with a super-powered lava form and fire/tectonics powers. May or may not be from a lost Roman colony in the Amazon, possibly. Stats refined in January, 2017 and added M&M stats.

Sunspot

(Profile #1 - Year One)

Chapter 1 for our Sunspot (Roberto da Costa) solar-powered profile. It covers his "year one" era, more or less. Entirely overhauled in January, 2017.

Shinobi Shaw

A minor foe of the X-Men, chiefly associated with the Upstarts and the Hellfire Club during the 1990s. He's lamentable but you don't always want to break out Magneto or Darkseid.

Karma

(Profile #1)

This is for X'ian Coy Manh while she was working with the New Mutants, during the 1980s - plus her known earlier life. Vietnamese mutant lass with possession powers.
