NIGHTCRAWLER

REAL NAME: Kurt Wagner

POWERS: Kurt possesses, in addition to his demonic appearance, the power to teleport himself, stick to walls, and has also displayed the talent to render himself near invisible when in shadow.

Kurt was a longtime member of the X-Men, and was the first "new" X-Men recruited by Professor X. When the X-Men were thought dead, leaving only himself and Shadowcat left, the two joined with Phoenix, Captain Britain, and Meggan to form Excalibur. Kurt was leader of the team, and also was engaged in romances with Amanda Sefton and Cerise. When the team disbanded, he went back to the X-Men with Shadowcat and Colossus, but is no longer in a position of leadership. Kurt has a complicated family, that includes Mystique as a mother, Graydon Creed as a half-brother, and Rogue as an adoptive sister.
