My name is Rumi Caverno, aka Danger Rumi. My super power is being able to fit all of you inside me, although some of you might get injured or killed in the process. I'm very sorry, Professor X makes me do this.

Yes, hello, my name is Magn-I mean, um... Mr. Otengam, yes that'll do for now. After my family died in the Holocaust, I vowed to use my awesome powers over magnetism to help...ugh, mutant-human coexistence. Yep, I just love humans, love 'em to bits. I would love to join your organization and learn all of its secrets, so I can help ingratiate mutantkind with humanity like a bunch of simpering Uncle Toms. So, what do you say? Care to show me where you keep the airplane and such? Maybe tell me the passcodes for the more restricted areas?

I'm Sterilizing Agent. My mutant power is that I emit a low-level radiation that kills off all virus, bacteria, and other microscopic organisms in a 30 meter range after just a few seconds of exposure. After a minute, even small bugs will die off. I'm perfect for living in a huge building with lots of people since just my power will keep us disease and pest free. I also, um, make people sterile after about 10 minutes of being in that same field, and I've been waiting in line for this interview for the last 30 minutes. I don't know if it's permanent or not. But this is a school, and just my presence alone will cut down on teen pregnancies.

Call me Red. I got a long fuse, but when I get angry, I just see red. Like you've got no idea, man, I just see red and my hands start swinging. I get so angry it doesn't matter what anyone tries to do to me cause I'll never give up. Ever. I'll just see red and power out of any hold. Go ahead, punch me as hard as you can and see what happens. Do it. No, do it. Fuckin' do it. Not in my face you prick! That was loving cheap man -- look, now my nose is bleeding!

My name is Pourly. My power is that I can exactly transfer whatever volume or mass perfectly. Like if you need exactly 5ml of vanilla for that recipe... I can do that. You need need exactly 10 dollars of gas in your car? Take me with you, put the pump in my hand, and even if I close my eyes I'll get you exactly 10 dollars of gas, perfectly. But my power can be more useful than that. Like if you need me to mix solutions in your labs, I can do exactly what you need me to do without even trying. You need exactly 42 units of insulin? You could fill up a 10cc syringe with insulin and I'd STILL only inject exactly 42 units without even looking.

I can annoy any elephant on earth from wherever I happen to be. Anything from mild irritation to murderous rampage. Every time I use my power the tiny elephants that live in my bloodstream (long story) kill off all my skin mites, but I don't really notice.

Bonzo posted:We all laughed at Cypher back in the day but Douglock is pretty cool Cypher was just used poorly. He could comprehend 'any language'. As later writer showed, if his power is that vague, that means he should be an utter master with computers AND highly skilled in hand to hand (comprehend language? Even body language?). Still a bit of a liability in a superpower fight, but invaluable as an assist. Buttchocks posted:My name is Rumi Caverno, aka Danger Rumi.

Danger, stop trying to join the JV team, we don't need a ringer and your disguise is just humanface. Which is racist. I think. Maybe. At the least the makeup is bad because it's running like a former NY's mayor's hair dye. Cornwind Evil fucked around with this message at 09:28 on Nov 14, 2023 |

Cypher had a problem of just being created as a character at the wrong time, too. He is created and killed well before the 90s computer boom, so at a time when writers/readers had a far different idea of what 'good with computers' (which was probably about 1/2 the use of his powers at the time) could be capable of. But on the other hand, had he been created in the 90s rather than the 80s, he'd been an edgelord computer hacker with piercings and a ponytail. He'd also be a big anime otaku and write N64 and PS1 games for fun. Who am I? My name is the All-ternative. I can tell you what every alternate universe version of various mutants would be like.

Cypher is pretty perfect as a support character, like especially given the international themes of the X-men he'd absolutely be their go-to diplomat and exposition guy, right? The problem is X-men writers in particular seem to have no concept of how to use a character outside a fight scene.

Bonzo posted:I read Cypher's death when it was published and it made me angry. Even more so that he was killed protecting a character we never saw again. Bird Brain or something? I thought it was with that storyline, but he'd gotten in the way of a bullet meant for Rahne. I think they were trying to push later on that the pair had a secret crush on one another or something or she had survivor's guilt. A kind of big derail on this includes: -"Where was Warlock during all this?" Well, around that time Warlock and Sunspot had left the NM for multiple issues to be in a miniseries called "Fallen Angels" (I think it was originally called Misfits, but either the Jem IP or the rock group caused them to change it.) Warlock and Sunspot came back for the tail end of the Birdboy saga. -We got the pretty messed up "Warlock sees a zombie movie and drives Doug's dead body around town to friends and family like it's Weekend at Bernie's" issue a few issues later. Around the time of all this there was IIRC, The Fall of the Mutants story arc, which at the same time has the world believing the X-Men to be dead and the surviving X-Men having left to join Excalibur. It also has the end of the Xavier school (blown up). Magneto going evil (again.) There's a lot of mix/matching during this window of New Mutants/Fallen Angels characters from characters that appear in the X-Terminators (IIRC) mini. I think Claremont was actually no longer doing New Mutatns during this time and Simonson had taken over and she was maybe looking to make the characters more 'adventurous and fanciful', then Claremont was doing, maybe really trying to aim at a more 'youth market' or a 'Teen Titans' with the concept.. Etc. I kind of have a lot of theories on stuff like this and I keep thinking Marvel trying to reinvent the New Mutants for about 3 years from around issue 50 for the next three years until Liefeld shows up and kept trying to find some new gimmick to shove youth mutant characters into and none of it ever worked. If you look at it, in barely three years, the title loses a LOT of long-time characters in that time. Had Liefeld/X-Force relaunch had not been successful, they almost seem like they whittling the team down to a few names that could be easily shipped around or relaunched into a new team.
