“The thing none of you will ever understand is that there are no sides. There are no heroes or villains. There’s just what I want and how I’ll get it”
Name: Magneto
Alignment: Neutral
Alias(es): White King | The Creator
Secret Identity: Magnus Eisenhardt
Looks:
Magnus has blueish
gray eyes and silky white hair that is usually slicked back. His trademark look consists of a black leather jacket with a turtleneck worn underneath. The turtlenecks vary in color, but he prefers to wear his red one most of the time. Along with this he wears black jeans and black combat boots. Despite being a teenager during the Holocaust, Magnus is now in his prime due to being de-aged to a baby following a particular incident.As Magneto he wears armor that he created himself through the use of his magnetic powers. The costume is actually an amalgam of various lightweight, but highly durable, metallic alloys that further protect him from physical injury. The armor is sleeveless and white in color, with two black lines running down the front. He also white wears gauntlets that cover most of his forearms, white boots with two horizontal black lines at the top, and his trademark helmet. His cape wraps around his neck like a mantle, and is made of the same lightweight material. Lastly, he wears a white utility belt with a 'X' symbol serving as the buckle. Magneto has another suit with a similar design, but that one is black in color.
Personality: Magnus was taught to be a fighter from early on in his life, a desire that was nourished by his father, and it was only reinforced when the Nazis invaded Poland. Seeing his father fight and die did not make him avoid conflict. Instead it made him realize the importance of power and the need to be able to overwhelm one's enemies. This also instilled in him a contrast between the weak and the strong. Being seen as weak, young Magnus was instilled with a need to be strong and his mutant powers allowed him to do this.
Having been so deeply impacted by the atrocities of the holocaust, Magnus naturally seeks to understand this brutal nature. His intelligent mind allows him to study, observe, and document the nature of human conflict. However, the scars of the holocaust and the anger he feels for what was done to his family leads him to see all human conflict as a sign that humans are flawed. This is also where the nature of power comes into play. He has power that many others don't. He is one of the most powerful mutants thanks to his abilities. So while he sees humans flawed, he starts seeing his kind as something else. This helps instill an us-vs-them mentality, one that constantly shapes and guides his action. This along with his fighter's instinct leads him to place the responsibility of confronting human conflict on himself. Thus, the messiah complex is the very core of who Magnus Eisenhardt is.
It is because of this messiah complex in addition to his intelligence that he is able to become such a powerful leader for mutants. He not only has the abilities to carry him through the conflict, he has the charisma to rally others to his cause. As someone who studied mutation so thoroughly, he reasons that mutants are a natural evolution of man and are meant to be an improvement on the levels where mankind fell short. To him it is only a matter of time before all humanity dies out. Any effort to prevent this is only slowing down the evolutionary process and leaving the door open to more human hatred like that of the holocaust. That is simply something he will not allow. That is why he takes a title like Magneto, to distance himself from humanity and set himself apart.
Rank // History
Rank: 4 [Hunter]
Origin Type: Mutant
Origin Story: After witnessing the brutal murder of his family by the Nazis, Magnus Eisenhardt, was sent to the Auschwitz death camp where he served in the Sonderkommando, the squad of Jewish men forced to helped their Nazi oppressors operate the gas chambers, ovens, and fire pits of the camp. While in Auschwitz, Magnus met a gypsy girl named Magda, who he married after they both survived the Holocaust. They had a daughter, Anya. Magnus first consciously used his mutant powers when his family was trapped in a burning house. Unable to rescue his daughter from the blaze due to his inexperience, coupled with interference from a hostile mob, he angrily unleashed his powers to vengefully slaughter the humans, destroying a portion of the city in the process. His experiences in Nazi Germany and Auschwitz shaped his outlook on the situation that mutants like himself face in the world. Determined to keep such atrocities from ever being committed against mutantkind, he dons his signature helmet and becomes Magneto, who uses deadly force to protect mutants.
History:
Magneto was born Magnus Eisenhardt in the late 1920s to a middle-class German-Jewish family. His father, Jakob Eisenhardt, was a decorated World War I veteran. Surviving discrimination and hardship during the Nazi rise to power, the passing of the Nuremberg Laws in 1935, and the Kristallnacht, Magnus and his family fled to Poland where they were captured during the German invasion and sent to the Warsaw Ghetto. Magnus and his family escaped the ghetto, only to be betrayed and captured again. His mother, father, and sister were executed and buried in a mass grave, but he alone survived, due to the manifestation of his mutant powers. He escaped from the mass grave only to be captured once again and sent to, where he eventually became a Sonderkommando. While there he reunited with a Romani girl named Magda, with whom he had fallen in love when he was younger, and with whom he escaped the prison camp during the 1944 revolt.
Following the war, he and Magda moved to the Ukraine where they had a daughter named Anya, and lived uneventfully until an angry mob, spurred on by a first manifestation of Magnus' powers, burned down their home with Anya still inside. Magnus was enraged at the mob for preventing him from rescuing Anya, and his powers were unleashed, killing the mob and destroying a part of the city. Wanted by the authorities for the deaths and destruction in Ukraine, Magnus relocated to Israel, where he met and befriended Charles Xavier while working at a psychiatric hospital near. There, the two debated the consequences humanity faced with the rise of mutants, though neither revealed to the other that they were mutants. However, they were forced to reveal their inherent abilities to one another while facing off against Hydra. Following the battle, Magnus, realizing that his and Xavier's views were incompatible, left with a cache of hidden Nazi gold, which provided him with the finances to pursue his goals.

Description of Powers:
Magnetokinesis: Magneto core ability is the power to channel, manipulate, and generate magnetic fields that exist naturally or artificially. He can use his power in more than one way simultaneously, and can even completely assemble a complicated machine within seconds through his powers. Magneto is also able to manipulate a magnetic field to interfere with telepathic attacks being one of the few mutants who can stop mind probes with their power alone.
- Magnetism: Magneto can manipulate metal and make it take different forms, and has also demonstrated the ability to indirectly manipulate non-metallic objects via metal ores they may contain. He can use his magnetism to attract or repel metallic objects, despite their weight. His magnetism is so strong that he was able to bend the adamantium in a certain foe's skeleton and remove it from his body. Through this ability, he is also able to save people who are injured by metal, e.g. bullets.
- Magnetic Force-Fields: Magneto usually protects himself with a personal force field that he can quickly expand to protect large areas. His force field can withstand the effects of multiple nuclear weapons, volcanic eruptions, the depths of space and attacks from multiple opponents.
- Magnetic Flight: Magneto is also capable of sustaining flight for very long distances and at varying speeds. He apparently has several means by which he achieves flight, one of which is by gliding along the planet's natural magnetic lines of force, another by simply creating a repulsive force between himself and the planet in order to propel himself.
- Magnetic Pulse: Magneto has the ability to focus magnetic energy into an extremely powerful concussive blast, which can be utilised for various purposes.
- Electromagnetic Sight: By concentrating, Magneto can perceive the world around himself as patterns of magnetic and electrical energy. He can perceive the natural magnetic auras surrounding living beings and perceive their current physical and mental condition.
- Magnetic Armor: In addition to the obvious external force fields, Magneto can reinforce the metallic fibers of his suite with magnetic fields, making his clothing like armor with a durability approaching adamantium. With this, he can resist punches from superhumanly strong foes and remain conscious.
- Telepathic Resistance: Magneto has trained himself extensively for fighting telepaths, and is resistant to all but the strongest telepathic attack. The effects of this is further augmented with the aid of his helmet, and additionally his own electromagnetic powers which has been shown countering, dampening and even outright stopping any form of telepathy. Magneto is possessed of a strong will, which also aids him in resisting telepathic assaults.
- Electromagnetic Spectrum Manipulation: Although Magneto's primary power is Magnetism, he has an extensive ability to project or manipulate any form of energy that is related to the electromagnetic spectrum. He can fire and absorb bolts of electricity and magnetic force, reverse lasers and other forms of radiation or energy, create enough intense heat as infrared radiation to level a city, manipulate gravity, and become invisible by deflecting visible light around his body. Infrared radiation is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which also includes visible light, radio waves, ultraviolet light, gamma rays and x-rays. However, he almost always uses only magnetism, since it’s more difficult for him to manipulate other forms of energy.
-Magneto's helmet is designed to prevent telepathic intrusion or psionic attacks. This is accomplished via technology of his own design wired into the helmet itself. The helmet has become something of a symbol, an integral part of Magneto's persona.
-The costume that Magneto wears is actually a type of armor that he has created through the use of his magnetic powers. The costume is an amalgam of various lightweight, but highly durable, metallic alloys that further protects him from many forms of physical injury. He dons a utility belt around his waist that contains metallic objects that he can use as weapons.
