Erik: History

Erik Magnus Lehnsherr was a survivor from World War II; which took his entire family. During one attack he looked for his Mama and Papa but was captured by Nazis and taken away. After the war Magnus met up and formed a friendship with a young Charles Xavier and began working in a hospital saving other survivors. Nazi Party remnants attacked the country they were working in, attempting to take it back. Xavier and Magnus followed and saved several patients using their powers. But Magnus wanted to destroy the Nazis while Xavier wanted them spared. The event led to a rift between the two and they went their separate ways. Magnus eventually began using the name Magneto. He would go on to attack places like factories and military bases. Xavier eventually stopped him. Although he was stopped, he came back several years later; even more powerful and determined than before. His wife Magda began to grow frightened of Magneto and his mutant powers. After he used his powers to utterly destroy a village, a terrified Magda fled without telling him. Unbeknownst to Magneto, she was pregnant and would bear twins; Pietro and Wanda before dying. Magneto was left heartbroken by her disappearance. Undeterred, he and his followers began attacking power plants, factories and government buildings in an attempt to disrupt human society in preparation for a mutant takeover. Xavier stopped him by using his telepathic powers, and Magneto went into hiding for many years, growing stronger and preparing for his return.

Erik: history 2

During this time, Magneto discovered the Savage Land, a lush tropical jungle hidden deep within Antarctica. Magneto created a citadel here, and created the Mutants, a race of superpowered beings. He also came into conflict with Ka-Zar and the free peoples of the Savage Land. While residing in the Savage Land, Magneto was contacted by Mystique, who asked him to help train her ward, Rogue control her powers, which made her unable to touch any person without draining their life force. Magneto accepted, and he and Rogue soon became involved romantically, after discovering that Magneto's powers allowed him to touch Rogue and nullify her powers over him. Their relationship was unable to survive both of their demons however, and after Rogue left Mystique to join the X-Men, Magneto pretended as if they had never met, so as not to harm her relationship with the X-Men. Upon hearing that Beast was incarcerated, Magneto went to the prison to break him out. Beast refused Magneto's offer and; instead stayed so that; his trial would serve a greater purpose to the mutant community. Magneto thought he was a fool and left him. Later, Magneto attacks a military base and uses his powers to launch their nuclear armament to then destroy the same base. The X-Men members Wolverine, Cyclops, and Storm go to confront him. But none were powerful enough to stop him. The missiles launched; but were stopped; by Storm and her manipulation of the weather. Following Magneto's defeat, he chose to draw out Xavier. He attacked Metro Chemical in the hopes that; Xavier would personally respond; if he endangered human lives. He was right and the X-Men came to stop him. But just like; before Magneto proved too powerful and they were easily defeated.

Erik: history 5

Magneto becomes the new X-Men leader and dons a new suit. He also refrains himself from killing those who abused the mutants he saved and follows Xavier's dream for peaceful co-existence mutant and humans. UN Forces arrive at the X-Mansion demanding Magneto as he is a wanted terrorist so he surrenders and requests a fair trial to prove that he changed his ways. During the trial, an anti-mutant revolt led by the X-Cutioner leads to Storm permanently losing her powers as she shielded Magneto with her own body from a depowering radiation blast intended for him. In anger he raises the X-Cutioner and the other UN members into the sky showing how committed he is in changing his ways by justifying his willingness to spare their lives after what happened to Storm unlike his old ways and is thus pardoned. After leading the team on another mission to pursue Mister Sinister and a mind controlled Madelyn Pryor after he kidnaps her and Scott's child, Magneto is invited to the mutant nation of Genosha whom he brings along Gambit and Rogue after it is recognised by the United Nations. The Genoshan council requests for Magneto to be their new leader and he accepts under the condition that Rogue becomes his new queen as his newfound leadership of the X-Men reawakened his previous secret affair with her as his electromagnetic powers makes him resistant to her power-sapping touch. At a gala he dances with Rogue and is kissed by her right before she decides she is better with Gambit. Shortly after a genocidal attack from Sentinels on Genosha is initiated which leads to an attempt from Magneto, Rogue and Gambit to save as many lives as they can. Magneto is seemingly killed in the blast when attempting to shield Leech and other victims by an upgraded Master Mold. This leads to Rogue charging at the sentinel in anger before she is knocked out by Gambit to save her life who then proceeds to sacrifice his life to end the attack

Erik: history 6

It is revealed that Magneto survived and is being held captive by the mastermind behind the attack, Bastion who later initiates the next phase of his plan where he uses humans whom have been upgraded to becoming Prime Sentinels to hunt down mutants around the world. Valerie Cooper sets Magneto free after fully sympathising with his cause and in anger Magneto uses his powers to create a worldwide blackout which not only shuts down the Prime Sentinels but every other electronic device on earth, in essence declaring war on the entire world.After Magneto dons his old costume and helmet again, he raises Asteroid M out of the ocean and visits the X-Men declaring they join him to migrate away from the dying earth as well as scolding the recently returned Professor X for how his dream was shortsighted following what happened on Genosha and witnessing Leech's death after promising him that there is no need to fear. He is joined by Sunspot and Rogue who leave with him to Asteroid M. The X-Men's blue team comprised of Professor X, Cyclops, Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Jubilee fly to Asteroid M demanding Magneto reverses the damage he did to earth. During the skirmish, Charles grabs a hold of Magneto's mind to reverse his damage after Logan removes his helmet but is interrupted by Cyclops who uses his optic blasts on Xavier explaining that gold team needs more time to shut down Bastion's control of the sentinels. In rage Magneto subdues everyone on the ship calling Charles a traitor to mutantkind before he is impaled in the back by Wolverine. Enraged Magneto rips the adamantium out of Wolverine's skeleton severely injuring him but gives Charles the upper hand to grab hold of him and undo the damage to earth. The deed fractures Magneto's mind, requiring Xavier to guide him back.

Erik: history 7

President Kelly initiates the Magneto Protocols firing a barrage of missiles towards Asteroid M which is a failure as it leads to the asteroid losing it's gravitation and thus hurdling towards earth. After Magneto regains consciousness he helps stop Asteroid M from crashing into earth when somehow the entire asteroid and the X-Men are time-displaced into two different time periods. Magneto, Professor X, Beast, Rogue and Nightcrawler are transported to Egypt in 3000BC where they meet a man named En Sabah N

Explanation

X-men: The X-Men are a group founded by Professor Charles Xavier as a response to the emergence of naturally occurring superhumans known as mutants among the baseline human society. Dedicated to promoting a dream of peaceful coexistence between mutants and humans, Xavier trained his X-Men in the use of their mutant powers at the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, forging them into defenders of a world that hates and fears them. Over the years, the heroes of mutantkind found their mission constantly endangered by both reactionary humans and fanatic mutants. Krakoa: Krakoa is a sentient living island located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It was once believed that it was spawned from nuclear testing in the area (that somehow the repeated bombardments of radiation caused the island to mutate into a living ecosystem).[1] It eventually was revealed to have been part of an older sentient landmass known as Okkara which in ancient times was split apart using the Twilight Sword. Splitting it in two formed Krakoa and Arakko.[5] Although hostile at first, the land eventually became a safe haven and later home nation for mutants on Earth.[6] However, like its predecessor Genosha, Krakoa was attacked during the third annual Hellfire Gala by Orchis, which ended the mutant nation. Genosha: Genosha, officially the Republic of Genosha, is a small crescent-shaped island located to the northeast of Madagascar, on the eastern coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. The island has two major cities, Carrion Cove and Hammer Bay, the capital city. Its landmass covers 1,286 square miles. The mutant known as Magneto, with support from the United Nations, officially took control of Genosha from its human oppressors and turned it into what he claimed to be a "mutant haven," "promised island," and "mutant utopia." At its height, Genosha was home to almost the entire mutant population of Earth.

Explanation 2

Mutant biology: Mutants have many distinctive traits in regard to biology, physiology, and genetics from baseline humans. Mutants can have wildly varying biologies depending on the nature of their mutation. X-Gene: Mutation is caused by the X-Gene in the mutants' DNA. Mutations normally manifest themselves during puberty, often as a result of a traumatic event. Mutants activated at adulthood on rare occasions. Some mutants exhibit their mutations at birth, however, while others do not manifest their powers until adulthood. Secondary Mutation is a phenomenon in which an existing mutant gains additional powers, or a change in their appearance due to a second mutation. Mutant breeding: Mutant breeding has notable implications, regarding the transmission of the mutant genome, or to hybridization with others of human or extraterrestrial species. Mutant classification: The mutants can be divided into multiple categories, regarding to their origins, genetic status, powers (e.g. Omega Level Mutant), etc Persecution: mutant are highly feared and persecuted.

Mutant level: omega

Omega Class: An Omega-level mutant is one with the most powerful genetic potential of their mutant abilities. Some abilities depicted by mutants described as Omega-level include immortality, extreme manipulation of matter and energy, high psionic ability, strong telekinesis, and the potential to exist beyond the boundaries of the known physical universe. No firm definition has been offered in comics. Mutants that have been confirmed as Omega-level include Jean Grey, Vulcan, Iceman, Legion, Elixir, and Franklin Richards. These mutants are the rarest of all mutants. edited to remove Rachel Summers Alpha Class: The Alpha Mutants are the most powerful and most feared mutants. Alpha mutants have extremely powerful mutant traits without any significant flaws. Less than 10% of mutants are Alpha mutants so they are very rare. Some of the Alpha mutants include Cyclops, Gambit, Professor X, Havok, Colossus, and Emma Frost.

Mutant level: beta

Beta Class: As far as how potent their powers are Beta Mutants are on the same level as Alpha mutants. The difference between Beta Mutants and Alpha Mutants is that the Beta Mutants have flaws, albeit very small flaws. The Beta mutants are also believed to be about 10% of the mutant population. Some examples of Beta mutants are Beast, Angel, Wolverine, Mystique and Sabretooth.

Mutant level: Gamma

Gamma Class: Gamma mutants have very powerful mutants (starting to see a pattern?) but they have flaws. Unlike the Beta mutants a Gamma mutant's flaw is a major flaw that makes their life very hard. The best example was probably Rogue. Rogue can absorb anybody's power, which makes her very powerful, but she can't touch people making any kind of romantic life difficult. (Edit: No longer valid, as she as gained control which would move her to alpha) Also, while Alpha and Beta mutants can pass as regular looking humans, Gamma mutants cannot because they have physical defects like Blob or Marrow.

Mutant level: Gamma

Delta Class: Delta Mutants are like Alpha mutants in that they don't have any significant flaws. The only problem is that Delta mutants don't have powers that match an Alpha mutant, or even a Beta or Gamma mutant. At least 50% of mutants are Delta mutants making them the most common type of mutant. Some examples of Delta mutants are Forge, Domino and Callisto.

Mutant level: Epsilon class

Epsilon Class: Epsilon mutants or like Gamma mutants in that they have major flaws that make their lives very difficult. They also like Delta mutants have little or no signifigant powers to speak of. Approximately 20% of mutants are Epsilon mutants making them the second most common type of mutant. An example of an Epsilon class mutant is Beak.
