Ultimate X-Men

Eye color: Blue  Hair color: Blue  Powers: The possesses superhuman strength and speed, extraordinary endurance, the agility of an ape, and the acrobatic prowess of an accomplished circus aerialist. His manual and pedal dexterity are so great he can write with both hands at once and tie knots with his toes. Weapons: None  History: Henry McCoy knows full well the dangers facing mutants in the new millennium. His huge hands and feet are obvious signs of his mutation, too often making him the object of fear and hate. Fleeing an abusive home, Hank made his way to New York in time to witness on television the first culling of mutants in Los Angeles.  Caught in the middle of a barroom brawl, he was asked at gunpoint to vacate the premises. Subsequently, Hank was invited to join Professor Charles Xavier's X-Men -- and help stop the coming war between humans and mutants. Aside from his slightly derogatory codename, Hank took to the role far quicker than fellow new recruits Colossus and Storm. Bearing a cheerful attitude and genius-level intelligence that contrast with his brutish appearance, the Beast is a star pupil at the Xavier Institute.

Colossus "I know what you're thinking, Piotr. You think your cover's blown and you're all alone and you might as well stand here and wait for the Sentinels now that the word is out that you're secretly a mutant. But you're wrong. You are not alone. Welcome to the X-Men, honey." - Marvel Girl to Colossus Real name: Piotr Nikolaievitch Rasputin  Occupation: Student, adventurer, former Russian Mafia enforcer  Group affiliation: X-Men  Base of operations: Xavier Institute for Gifted Children, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York First appearance: Ultimate X-Men #1 (2000)  Height: 6'6"  Weight: 250 lbs. normal, 500 lbs. armored  Eye color: Blue  Hair color: Black  Powers: Piotr Rasputin is a mutant with the ability to convert his body into an organic steel-like substance, granting him superhuman strength and a high degree of resistance to injury. It is believed that because Piotr is still a teenager, his strength has not yet reached its peak. Weapons: None  History: In light of Russia's struggles to build a democratic political system and market economy to replace the strict social, political and economic controls of the communist period, Piotr Rasputin left his poverty-stricken family to make a living in the United States. Already aware of his incredible powers and unable to find adequate work to support his family, Piotr joined the Russian Mafia. Downplaying his abilities, he quickly rose within the Mafia ranks to enforcer. Caring more about his family than himself, Piotr sent home every cent he earned. Due to his trusted position, Piotr often was charged with the oversight of secret arms deals. One such transaction threw his life into a tailspin when he and his associates were doublecrossed and attacked. All the men were killed save Piotr, who used his mutant power to become an impenetrable being of organic steel. His secret now exposed, Piotr was inclined to wait for the Sentinels to arrive and annihilate him. Instead, he was discovered by Professor Charles Xavier and asked to join the X-Men, a team of young mutants dedicated to bringing about peaceful coexistence between the two species of man. As Colossus, Piotr now serves as the squad's super-strong powerhouse.

Cyclops "You think the only way I can release an optic blast is to press the button on my visor, don't you? Bad news!" - Cyclops Real name: Scott Summers  Occupation: Student, adventurer Group affiliation: X-Men  Base of operations: Xavier Institute for Gifted Children, Salem Center, Westchester County, New York  First appearance: Ultimate X-Men #1 (2000)  Height: 6' Weight: 165 lbs.  Eye color: Black (glowing red when power is active)  Hair color: Brown  Known powers: Cyclops is a mutant with the ability to project beams of ruby-colored concussive force from his eyes. The precise nature of the optic blasts is unknown, but it seems Cyclops' body metabolizes solar energy in the process of generating the beams. Unable to control the blasts, Cyclops prevents the energy from escaping by wearing ruby-quartz lenses -- the only substance able to diffuse his awesome power. History: Scott Summers, one of Professor Charles Xavier's first recruits, is stalwart leader of the X-Men. Xavier took Scott in to his Institute for Gifted Children in Westchester County, New York, when he discovered the young man's uncontrollable ability to release immensely destructive force beams from his eyes, and began training the boy in the use of his incredible power. Scott firmly believes in the Xavier's dream of human and mutant coexistence. Spawn The Anthony sez: Yihaaa...yo yo yo!!! This is my favorite character ^^ Cool man!!! Optic Blast!!
