X-Factor (comics)/Characters: Difference between revisions

 

'''Caliban'''

* [[Blood Knight]]

* [[Deal With the Devil]]: When he joined Apocalypse...

'''Leech'''

 

* [[Break the Cutie]]: Poor Leech has been through a lot of Hell, from being a survivor of Morlock Massacre to an unwilling pawn used for depowering mutants by a villain.

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: With Artie

'''Julio Richter / Rictor'''

 

* [[Brought Down to Badass]]: Even though he has been depowered, he still earns his place as a member of [[X-Factor]].

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

* [[Dishing Out Dirt]]: He used to have seismic powers until he got depowered on M-day. In Avengers: Children's Crusade #6, {{spoiler|he's the first mutant to have his powers restored by Wanda.}}

* [[Cybernetics Eat Your Soul]]

* [[Deal With the Devil]]

* [[Karma Houdini]]: No matter how many times he's killed, he just keeps coming back.

* [[Losing Your Head]]

* [[Cloning Blues]]: For some time, his clones were cool with being who they are. Then things started getting weird. One turns traitor and joins with the long-term X-Men enemy Mister Sinister. Another dies of the Legacy Virus. Jamie starts going around the bend because he's just too much people for one man. Later, he gets it together but his clones don't. All the thousands of aspects, idiotic or not, in the human mind tend to get manifested in his clones. He can and has created a clone to free him from a prison cell but it's possible the clone will be his sadness and be too depressed to move. Another is unpredictable and tries to kill an old ally. It is reabsorbed but indicates that it could pop out in any future clones and go try to kill again.

* [[Fun Personified]] (most likely under Peter David's writing)

* [[Mundane Utility]]: Jamie constantly uses his dupes like this, sending them out to learn and explore the world, creating them on the other side of locked doors, playing duets on piano and the super-babysitting.

* [[Rescued From the Scrappy Heap]]

The son of [[Magneto]] who was separated from him and believed to be dead. Raised by gypsies, he developed a strong fixation on his sister, Wanda Maximoff. After Magneto saved Wanda from a anti-mutant mob, the two were indebted to him and were reluctantly part of the first incarnation of the Brotherhood of Mutants. After Magneto was abducted by aliens and the Brotherhood disbanded, Quicksilver and [[Scarlet Witch]] served for a long period as members of [[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Avengers]], where they redeemed themselves. However, old habits and revelations about villainous heritages are hard to fight, and the two continue to bounce back and forth between good and evil and sane and insane. He's also the ex-husband of Crystal from [[The Inhumans]] and they have a daughter named Luna, but his relationship with them is... utterly troubled.

 

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]

* [[Bishounen]]: Depending on the art, Quicksilver is usually not a bishounen except for X-Men Evolution cartoon. However, in one X-Factor issue, he was called 'Pretty Boy' by his inmates when he was put in prison for vagrancy.

* [[Brought Down to Normal]]: He thought he had it bad when life moved in slo-mo, but after losing his powers, everything seemed so... ''fast''. He went crazy, stole mutating mists from his in-laws, and used them to get time travel powers.

* [[Cry Cute]]

* [[Karma Houdini]]: Recently {{spoiler|Made a statement on the news that his [[Moral Event Horizon]] (see below) was a work of a Skrull imposter during the Secret Invasion crossover.}}

** While the above is true, {{spoiler|Luna herself knows the truth, and while [[Secret Keeper|she'll keep his secret because she loves him]], she's [[Calling the Old Man Out|made it very clear]] that she has lost ''all'' respect for him.}}

* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Kidnapping his own daughter Luna to subject her to mutating mists was just the beginning. Crystal was definitely ''not'' amused when she found out.

* [[Motor Mouth]]: He talks faster in ''X-Men Evolution'' cartoon than in the comics

* [[The Unfavourite]]: Magneto's relationship with his kids is equally screwed up, with Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver being the Un-Favorite in both the regular and Ultimate Marvel Universe.

** In particular, in the Ultimate Marvel Universe, Magneto is quite open with with his disdain for Quicksilver/favoritism towards Wanda, by "punishing" Wanda for betraying him by way of making her watch him kneecap her brother, who Magneto berated for going to work for the Ultimates.

 

'''Valerie Cooper'''

 

* [[Adaptive Ability]]: Random's main mutant power is adaptive shapeshifting. He can harden his skin when stabbed or reconstitute himself from protoplasmic goop when caught in an explosion. The guns are just his preferred form for combat.

** Until recently, he was a [[Mook]] in the Marauders team.

*** Not exactly. Just like back in the days, when he had to fight X-Factor, he has doubts on his allegiance. Also, he's shown to be the more charitable of his team... suggesting to his foes that they're lucky having to fight him, because he's ''the nice one''.

* [[Bad Future]]

* [[But Not Too Black]]: She is an Aborigine mutant with blonde hair

* [[Virtual Ghost]]

 

'''Monet St. Croix / M'''
