Line 15:
*** Beast built the device so that its effects could be reversed—he was using it to blackmail Unus into surrendering in order to save his own life. Henry McCoy is fricking hardcore.
*** Unus is so [[Blessed with Suck]], his powers manage to kill him ''twice''. In the ''Son of M'' mini-series, starring [[Quicksilver]], Unus showed up alive without explanation, but depowered. He & several other depowered mutants are exposed to the [[Green Rock|terrigen mists]] by the titular character, despite [[The Inhumans|the Inhumans']] warnings that exposing any non-Inhuman will end in tragedy. Everyone exposed has their powers returned, but to extreme levels, leading to madness, misery and (in Unus' case) death. Again.
*** Skids was a Morlock with powers similar to Unus, who like him, had no control over it; but she got lucky, after surviving the assault by the Marauders that killed most of the Morlocks, the New Mutants managed to help her learn to control it.
** There is a character in volume 2 of ''New Mutants'' called Wither. [[Touch of Death|Guess what ''his'' power is?]]
*** And when his power manifested, he happened to be touching his father at the time, thus killing Dad and turning Wither permanently into an [[Emo Teen]] who tends to [[Wangst]] quite a lot.
