List of X-Men (TV Series) Characters - Neutral Characters

Neutral Characters

  • Magneto (Eric Magnus Lensherr) (voiced by David Hemblen) - In the series, Magneto first appears in the third and fourth episodes where he launches a missile, but the X-Men stop it. Then he seeks to destroy a factory, but the X-Men stop him again. In the first season's finale, he helps the X-Men defeat the Master Mold and the Sentinels. He appears in nearly every episode in the second season, in which he and Professor Xavier are powerless and travel throughout the Savage Land. At the end of that season, all of the X-Men save them from Mr. Sinister, and they regain their powers. In the fourth season, he allies with Apocalypse but turns on him after discovering his true agenda and aids the X-Men in defeating him. Later, he constructs Asteroid M as a safe haven for mutants, but his dream is ruined by the fanatical Fabian Cortez. Broken, he secludes himself in the arctic and does not care about the possible destruction of life on Earth until he receives news from Beast, Forge, Mr. Sinister, and Amelia Voght that the Phalanx has kidnapped his son, Quicksilver, in the second part of the two-part, fifth season premiere. He teams up with them to defeat the Phalanx and saves everyone he had captured. By the end of the series, he has gathered up an entire army of rebellious mutants, but receives news from Wolverine, Cyclops, and Jean Grey that Professor X is dying. He has Xavier say his goodbyes to the X-Men before he dies. Lilandra then takes Xavier to her planet where there is a suggestion that he may be resurrected.
  • The External (Candra) - Candra is featured in the episode "X-Ternally Yours." In it, she has the same connection to the Thieves and Assassins as in the comics, offering them great power and protection in exchange for a decennial tithing, with those who broke the tithe punished greatly. She is not as inherently evil as her comic's counterpart, more focused on the tithe and ensuring its sanctity than any real criminal behavior. She eventually turns on the Assassins, after they threaten the tithe by kidnapping the Thieves' "chosen one" Bobby (Gambit's brother), and replacing their tithe with an empty box. She is represented as an African-American spirit, as opposed to a Caucasian mutant.

Famous quotes containing the words neutral and/or characters:

    I feel the carousel starting slowly
    And going faster and faster: desk, papers, books,
    Photographs of friends, the window and the trees
    Merging in one neutral band that surrounds
    Me on all sides, everywhere I look.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The major men
    That is different. They are characters beyond
    Reality, composed thereof. They are
    The fictive man created out of men.
    They are men but artificial men.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
