 | Magneto TEAM LEADER NAME: Erik Lehnsherr AGE: 83 PB: Magnus Anderberg INFO: Magneto has lived a very full and dark life, beginning as a young survivor of the holocaust. Magneto was only fifteen when he was taken from his mother, as a young German Jew, and put into a work camp. This experience gave him a dark outlook on humanity. He has spent much of his life fighting for mutant rights, though not always in ways that Charles can agree to. He believes in more of the kill or be killed method of survival and that Mutants are the next step in evolution and must not be held back by humans. Erik may be 83, but a few years ago he broke into a S.H.I.E.L.D. facility after the thawing of Captain America and used a rebirth chamber to de-age himself over twenty years before he was stopped. Erik has four children. He appears to be no older than 50. Erik was instrumental in the split of Xaviers, biding his time and playing his cards right to get many mutants to see his side.

NAME: Lorna Dane AGE: 19 PB: Reese Witherspoon INFO: Lorna Dane was raised by her Aunt and Uncle, who she thought were her parents until she was thirteen. Lorna was born with green hair, but showing no other signs of mutant ability, her Aunt and Uncle dyed her hair and left it at that. When her powers manifested she was told about the plane crash that killed her parents and about the affair her mother told her aunt of with a man named Erik. Lorna was recruited by Erik to the school. When her father left, Lorna was very close to giving birth to her son, Christopher Summers, and she and Alex went with him to protect their child from fearful humans.

NAME: Alex Summers AGE: 19 PB: Paul Walker INFO: Alex was the younger brother of Scott Summers, but the plane crash that killed his parents left them orphaned. Nathaniel Essex had them placed in different foster care situations. Alex was adopted by the Masters family, who tried to use him to replace their dead son. The constant pressure of living up to their expectations caused Alex to be conflicted and distant. Alex wanted to go to college as far from the Masters as he could. He took an internship right after high school doing surveys on mutant statistics. When he found out he was helping to target mutants he sabotaged the Sentinel project and fled. He found Xavier's Institute as a sanctuary. After being attacked by a Sentinel and having his memories blocked by a government controlled telepath, Alex became wary of humans. When Magneto left the school, Alex, Lorna, and their child went with him.

 | Avalanch
NAME: Dominikos Petrakis AGE: 18 PB: INFO: Little is known about his past because Dominikos doesn't discuss it. When Mystique found him as a young mutant in Crete, he was working as a thug for a gang. Mystique told him that she could teach him how to make better use of his powers and brought him to Xavier's school.

 | Lila
NAME: Lila Cheney AGE: 20 PB: Minka Kelly INFO: Lila used her powers when they first manifested to be a petty crook, but then her band, Cat's Laughing, hit huge on the British rock charts and Lila didn't need crime. Still, she was never a well behaved starlet. Lila's powers were outed when she used them to dodge an assassination attempt at a concert. Lila has enrolled at Xavier's to increase her street cred as part of the edgy superhuman community. Lila was always a little jaded, though, and the Brotherhood worked for her. What Magneto had to say made perfect sense.

 | Songbird
NAME: Melissa Gold AGE: 17 PB: INFO: Melissa was a runaway from an abusive father when she was imprisoned. On the streets she had developed a tough persona and donned the name "Mimi" to get by. In prison she met Poundcakes, who introduced her to a group called the Grapplers. The Grapplers were a street gang that performed in online, illegal fighting tournaments and supplemented their income with crime. The men running the sindicate put implants in Mimi to give her special abilities. Mimi escaped when the rest of the Grapplers were arrested and was found by Mystique, who brought her to the school. Mimi was cynical like Mystique and Magneto and when the school split, she chose the side that didn't have faith in humanity.

 | Blink
NAME: Clarice Ferguson AGE: 16 PB: INFO:Clarice was born in the Bahamas, but her parents moved to Miami because a purple skinnd baby had better chances of being accepted in the melting pot of the world. Still, she had her problems growing up. When her parents were killed, Clarice was still very young. Xavier took her in and she was fostered with the help of the X-Men at the time. Blink had seen enough discrimination because of her unusual appearance that going with Erik at the split seemed like the easy choice.

 | Purple Man
NAME: Zebediah Killgrave AGE: 18 PB: Adam Senn INFO: Zebediah was a smooth-talking teen in Croatia, who on a dare broke into a chemical refinery and was dosed with the substance that dyed his skin and granted him the power of suggestion. Zebediah had a hard time blending in after that, and instead of petty mischief he found himself being used by others to commit bigger crimes. It was nice to get whatever he wanted, but Zeb didn't like being muscled around by more strong-willed, big-time crooks. So he came to Xavier's, where he could get into some real trouble. Zeb was still new when the school split and Magneto took him, despite lacking the X-Gene, because he was so very useful, and he favoured purple too.

Both of them remember being beaten for being different so both agree with Erik Lehnsherr's perspective on the mutant-human relationship.
