Well I tried resurrecting the old thread, but it seems no one took the bait, so I figured we could start another one. Hopefully you folks will follow, I'm talking to you Fenwick, Mr Bondoc and G.Bone.
Professor X
Real Name: Erik Magnus Lehnsherr
Mutant Ability: Magnetism Manipulation
Erik was born during the 1920s in Germany. During the Third Reich, Erik, his parents, and his sister were persecuted for being Jewish, and were shot by the Nazis and buried in a mass grave. Erik survived the execution, but was later captured and sent to the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland to work in the Sonderkommando. While in Auschwitz, Erik meets in love with a Roma girl named Magda, with whom he escapes the prison camp. Magnus and Magda marry several years later and immigrate to the United States, where the couple had a daughter named Anya.
During a visit to New York City, a young mutant capable of controlling fire, loses control of his powers, and incinerates three city blocks. Erik had stepped into a store to pick up his dry-cleaning and was unable to shield Magda and Anya from the blast of fire. The young mutant was nearly beaten to death by a mob, and was only able to escape with the help of Erik, who planned on killing the young mutant himself.
On top of the nearest building, as Erik was prepared to kill the young mutant, Erik heard him muttering. "Didn't know how to control my powers, didn't know how to control my powers." Erik realized the young mutant hadn't killed his family on purpose, and had only lost control because he hadn't been properly trained. Knowing that this young mutant would be traumatized for the rest of his life, Erik used his magnetism to stop the flow of blood to the part of the young mutants brain that allowed him to access his powers. Setting him down on a street on the other side of the city, the young ex-mutant fled into the crowd, never having to worry about killing again.
Taking the name of Professor X, after the X-Factor responsible for the mutant gene, Erik began to amass funds for a grand idea. Twenty years later, Lehnsherr Institute for Higher Learning opened it's doors to young mutants, giving them a world class education, along with secretly training them to use and control their powers.
