• Personality: At one point Erik truly would have been labeled a bitter, angry man bent on giving revenge to those who had caused him so much pain. But since the death of his dearest and closest friend Charles Xavier he has turned over a new leaf. Erik is a determined and caring man now, always willing to put the most important things ahead of himself first and foremost, especially matters involving the X-men and his family.
  
  Yet that doesn't mean this much older mutant is a push over, oh he is far from it. When it comes to protecting those he loves he is fiercely protective and willing to lay his life on the line to save them. But behind this fierce and determined face also lies an intelligent, calm minded individual who looks to a better future in the chaotic world they now live in.

Don't let them scare you away

• Powers:
  Magnokinesis: Magneto has near-limitless control of all forms of magnetism, whether natural or artificial, to manipulate any metal. He recently proved able to effectively contain the power of a Celestial . Magneto can maintain total control of an entire planet's electromagnetic field and manipulate it accordingly. Magneto has harnessed magnetism to stop armies, raise islands from ocean floors, move mountains, change the course of rivers, and threaten to devastate the world with apocalyptic floods and continent shaking earthquakes. Magneto once blanketed the entire globe with a self-generated electromagnetic pulse that caused widespread devastation. Moreover, he can use his magnetic powers in more than one way simultaneously. He can completely assemble a complicated machine within seconds through his powers. It is unclear whether Magneto's power is psionic or purely physiological in nature.He can also generate electromagnetic pulses of great strength and generate and manipulate electromagnetic energy down to photons.
  
  Magnetic Force-Fields: Magneto usually protects himself with a personal force field that he can quickly expand to protect large areas. His force field has withstood the effects of multiple nuclear weapons, volcanic eruptions, the depths of space and attacks from multiple Avengers or X-Men, including Phoenix, Thor, and even Galactus. Magneto can also use his force fields to hit or trap an enemy.
  
  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, propelling himself thus. By using his magnetic powers, Magneto can virtually travel at trans-light speeds; however, in order to travel in space, Magneto also requires his force field to breathe.
  
  Geomagnetic Link: Magnus is tied very closely to Earth's EM Field. As is it effected, so is he. He knows instinctively all that happens to it, and with this link, is granted an odd sort of immortality. Earth lends him strength by it's simple existence. He draws on it all unconsciously.
  
  Matter Manipulation: Magneto is able to manipulate matter even to the subatomic level for a number of purposes. This might explain why, his not limited to objects with metallic properties and is able to manipulate objects with non metallic properties like wood, stone, plastics etc.
  
  Metallic Bonding: Magneto has recently presented the power to atomically bond metallic substances to any designated surface material. This newly developed technique allows Magneto to blend metallic alloys with the earth, water, and air (HoM).
  
  Organic Iron Manipulation: Magneto can control the traces of iron within organic matter, which allows him to have full control over an opponent's body. He can manipulate the iron-enriched blood-flow to one's brain to induce aneurysms or unconsciousness, alter thoughts and perceptions, or blank a person's mind completely. He can even remove ferrous compounds from the bloodstream entirely through a person's skin. Magneto has used his magnetic abilities to extract the Adamantium bonded to Wolverine's biomolecular skeletal structure.
  
  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.
  
  Superhuman Strength: Under normal conditions, Magneto possesses the physical strength of a well conditioned athlete. However, he can channel vast amounts of magnetic energy through his body for the purpose of granting himself vast superhuman strength which limits are unknown. Whatever those limits might be, he is ultimately able to lift far in excess of 100 tons with ease.
  
  Superhuman Stamina: As a result of increasing his strength, he dramatically increases the overall efficiency of his musculature. While magnetically enhanced, his muscles produce considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of a normal human. Magneto can exert himself physically for up to at least a few days before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood starts to impair him.
  
  Superhuman Durability: Under normal conditions, Magneto possesses the physical durability of a well conditioned athlete. However, he can channel vast amounts of magnetic energy through his body for the purpose of granting himself vast superhuman durability, to the point he can shrug off punches to the face from super humans such as Namor and Colossus while weakened and remain unharmed.
  
  Superhuman Reflexes: He naturally possesses enhanced reflexes. He can further enhance this reflexes with magnetic energy, to the point he can pluck out of the air with his hand, superhumans as swift and fast as the likes of Northstar with ease.
  
  Electromagnetic Spectrum Manipulation: Although Magneto's primary power is magnetism, he can also project or manipulate any form of energy within 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 -- Magneto can project any of these. Magneto has demonstrated the capacity to produce a wormhole, and to safely teleport himself and others by means of the wormhole.
  
  Telepathic Resistance: Magneto has trained himself extensively for fighting telepaths, and is resistant to telepathic attack. This training is similar to that given to the X-Men and New Mutants by Professor X, although the effects are further augmented with the aid of his helmet, his own Electromagnetic powers can also interfere with telepathic assaults. Additionally, Magneto is possessed of a strong will, which also aids him in resisting telepathic assaults.
  
• Skills:
  Genius-level Intellect: A mastermind, Magneto is a genius in various scientific fields. He is an expert on genetic engineering and mutation, with knowledge far beyond that of contemporary science. He can create artificial living beings, mutate humans in order to give them superhuman powers, instill genetic mind-control, create adult clones of human beings and manipulate the genetic structures of these clones during their development. His discoveries in particle physics would revolutionize the field and place him among the giants of scientific history if they were to be revealed. He has designed magnetically-powered aircraft and spacecraft, space stations, an underground complex said to be a masterpiece of automated technology that would do Tony Stark or Reed Richards proud, complex robots and computers, magnetically-powered generators, and machines capable of nullifying mutant powers within a radius of several miles.
  
  Military Training: Magneto is a skilled strategist and has more than a rudimentary knowledge of hand-to-hand combat.
  
  Excellent Strategist: Magneto is an excellent strategist, tactician, and skilled leader.
  
  Multilingual: Magneto is fluent in English, French, Polish, Russian, Hebrew, Arabic, Ukrainian, German, and Yiddish
  
• History:Erik Lensherr was formerly known as Max Eisenhardt during the early 1920s. His family was a wealthy one, never living in poverty, good education, and a comfortable life. During the early times of Germany's troubles at the time he became attracted the the gypsy girl known as Magda who he began trying to gain favor of during sports or making her necklaces. Though during one javelin competition Erik was accused of cheating and after retrying and winning once more was expelled and beaten by other children. But the troubles only continued as both his father and uncle were beaten later on for different reasons, which to follow the entire Eisenhardt family faced problems that forced them to escape to Poland.
  
  During this time they were captured and sent to be executed but amazingly Erik was missed by every bullet before being sent to the Auschwitz Extermination Camp. In these times he became a decent smuggler for food and supplies and eventually wound up reuniting with his love interest and later first wife Magda. They managed to survive until being evacuted in which allowed them to escape and return to a gypsy camp to start a new life together. Erik would soon change his first name so to better fit in among Magda's people, the two would marry and had a daughter called Anya later and after moving to a new town more problems followed. When their house was on fire one day while Erik was returning to work, using his powers for the first time of being aware of them to throw a crowbar due to his pay being held, and was only able to save his wife. Anya unfortunately wasn't so luck, Erik having been forced down by soldiers and beaten before he retaliated by destroying half the city, people, and making his wife terrified before she fled.
  
  Later while working and living in Israel Erik would meet Charles Xavier, a fellow mutant and close friend. Though they had their debates about mutants and their coexistence things were to not go as planned for the two as it would in another reality. During a talk between the two Xavier's son, David from another time, came out of no where and was trying to slay Magneto to prevent events of his time from happening but instead Charles took the hit which brought much grief for Magneto. In honor of his friend's memory he would go on to try and make peace for humans and mutants, only for it to be challenged as Apocalypse rose to power instead and forced Erik to create the X-men to stop him.
  
  For a while Magneto took in the X-men, those who had been willing to rebel, and taught them in using their powers for battle and to better control them. Their first mission was to take place at Cape Citadel and though it was a victory there the X-men returned to their base of operations at Xavier's mansion which was in ruins and at the time Magneto thought his daughter to be dead. Over the next years though the X-men had some vcitories Apocalypse couldn't be stopped from taking over the Northern Continent and forcing the X-men to take refuge in Pythegorean Mountain. But during those years Magneto grew close to all his students, especially Rogue who he eventually married and had a son with while also being close to his son Pietro. Tragically however his youngest son was killed after being held hostage and lost in a confrontation.
  
  Though grief stricken Erik pushed forward to trying to prevent more loss and for the X-men to be far more organized and stronger today. But some good news for this aged man is still having his family around, especially knowing wanda is in fact alive and well, still determined to stop this war from going on.
