Welcome to the official thread of the X-Men team!
the X-MEN
[/i][/size][/b][/color][/center][/font][/blockquote]the ROSTER[/b][/font]a group of mutants who ranges from any age, ethnicity, background, and personality; the x-men use their powers for the benefit for humanity. hated by many of the human race, they are in a stage of frustration and confusion on what they should do. should they defend themselves and fight against the humans for their rights? or should they help them humans live peacefully, but allow the humans to walk all over the mutants? what will be the future for the X-MEN...

- Elizabeth Braddock / Psylocke - A mutant whom has gone through several physical and mental stages in her life, Betsy is very strong-willed and gentle. Having the powerful psionic abilities of telepathy and telekinesis, she is able to create weapons of pure, psionic energy that has the potential to kill. Being on a new X-Men team during times of the Keene Act, Betsy will always be out in the field doing what Wolverine does best.
"I think the blade can be the butterfly. It’s not two things. The delicacy can live inside the power. Directing it. Focusing it. It’s the same thing seen from two different angles. Me. Just Me."- Robert Drake / Iceman - As an original X-Man, Bobby feels like he holds the team together; especially after all that he has been through. An omega level mutant, he has several abilities that branch off of cyrokinesis and thermo kinesis; yet, he has not tapped into his full powers as of yet. Being a prankster is his role, but he can still be very intelligent and experienced at times.
"Name's Bobby Drake! Otherwise known as Iceman. I wanted to re-name the X-men Bobby Drake and his wonderful B-men, but Betsy turned me down! Bummer, right?!"- Cain Marko / Juggernaut - For several years a prominent foe of the X-Men, Cain Marko, the Unstoppable Juggernaut has recently had a change of heart, and is attempting to redeem himself of his past, going so far as to offer his services to the X-Men as not only an ally, but a true member. Thanks to the Ruby Gem of Cyttorak, he is essentially immortal, with strength far beyond any other man. With the X-Men, he acts as both a force of brute strength in battle, and something of a listener amongst his new 'friends'.
"So, uh... Remember that time I broke into the mansion and kinda tried to kill all of ya? I, uh... I ain't gonna be doin' that no more..."- Aubrey Connor / Lady Flare - Aubrey Connor/ Lady Flare – A pyrokinetic young woman who hails from a small town in Texas. Possessing the abilities to create and control fire, Aubrey Connor is also a skillful fighter, albeit being occasionally underestimated due to her looks and slight insecurity, she's able to do a real good hand-to-hand and melee combats. She's hot-tempered, struggles with her anger issues most of the time, yet actually a very friendly person and a sweetheart inside. After hearing the words about the X-men's reform from her current love interest, Bobby Drake, aka the Iceman, Aubrey offers herself up to join the team.
"Uh, alright so, I don't really have anything cool to say. I'm Aubrey, better known as Lady Flare... I'm hot. Literally. And I'm gonna burn your ass if you mess with me, or my friends or... y'know, these peeps we're proctectin'. Got that?"- Anna Marie / Rogue - A girl whom lived her early life alone and separated, Anna Marie now feels loved by her fellow X-Men. With the ability to absorb powers, memories, and emotions from other biological beings with a prolonged touch, you may never know her true self. Being an X-Man, Rogue would be able to gather intelligence and she has the advantage of being multiple people in one body.
"Hey, ya'll, mah name is Rogue. Ah am the Southern Belle with an attitude. Mess with mah or mah kind, and Ah will beat yaw ass. So, shugahs, don't mess with mah."- James Howlett / Wolverine - A mutant that has seen the best and worst of the past century, Logan's relatively youthful appearance does not betray his experience. Created to be little more than a vicious animal, Logan is much, much more. He's a key voice within the X-Men and serves as somewhat of a mentor and father figure to some of his younger teammates. With a healing factor, adamantium claws, a brilliant mind, and a kind heart, Logan's living proof that you can't always judge a book by its cover, or even what's written on some of the pages.
"Why do I get the feeling I'm going to be babysitting again? And why is the domehead hangin' around here lately? Seems everyone's lost their minds but me, and that's a sad thought. At least I'd have an excuse."- Sky Masterson: A loner doomed to wander the world on his own, Sky once met Nightcrawler who convinced him to follow the X-Men. Known for his rough personality, he tends to keep to himself. Though try as he might, he too is sort of a father figure to the younger mutants and he often does his best to keep his Werewolf form in check. Which can, and will, sometimes get out of hand. Sky, a former Detective Lieutenant, is also an incredibly accurate marksman and has an astute knowledge concerning guns.
"I ain't no hero, but I know I'm not a villain either. See I figure, I'm just a loner and there's not that much hope for a person like me. But if I can do something, maybe even just something...then I might have a chance."- Hank McCoy / Beast - One of the smartest men on the planet, Hank's exterior certainly does not show it. With the look of an feline, he has cat-like agility, flexibility, coordination, and balance, with enhanced strength, strength, speed, stamina, sturdiness, and senses. To the point of super-human levels. While his powers and appearance may show a crazy, unintelligent monster. Hank is actually a genius. A skilled biochemist, he is known for curing the Legacy Virus.
"So, I heard Cain was on the team, and Bobby. Looks like I have to be smart when they are not, which is most of the time. More work for me I guess."
Craig Daniels / Faultline: A Geokinetic with the powers to control the ground around him, Craig decided to join the team to repay a favor. Craig is a decent hand-to-hand combatant, but an expert on defensive maneuvers. Never one to start a fight, but Craig is usually prepared for it. He keeps a cool head in most situations, but might loose his head if he is laughed at. He puts his friends and teammates before anything else, even in life or death situations.“Well… I’m Craig and I’ll be playing my guitar if you need me. Just let me know when it’s time to shake things up…”
