Ultimate Professor X Profile

Powers: Charles Xavier is the most powerful telepath on earth, and possesses vast psionic abilities. He can induce illusions, temporary mental or physical paralysis, loss of specific memories, or total amnesia; project mind-numbing mental bolts; and sense the presence of mutants within a small radius. Other abilities include telekinesis and astral projection.

History: Xavier's powers manifested as a teenager, and resulted in the loss of his hair. As an adult, Xavier befriended the mutant known as Erik Lensherr, who was to become the mutant terrorist known as Magneto. Eric and Charles spent hours on the phone after they first met, talking about their dreams for the new mutant race. Their incredible bond led to Xavier leaving his Wife [Moira] and son [David]. Together, they founded The Brotherhood of Mutants in San Francisco, a place where persecuted mutants could find refuge. A year later, they discovered the Savage Land, a forgotten jungle in the Indian Ocean. In this lost tropical world, Xavier and Magneto built a home for the growing mutant population. For a time, the two men found the peace they sought -- but the partnership began to dissolve as Magneto became increasingly hateful toward mankind. He came to believe Homo superior represented the next step in human evolution, and that Homo sapiens should live under the rule of mutants. While Xavier thought of their Savage Land reprieve as a place to teach mutants, Magneto was merely building a mutant army.

Their relationship strained to the breaking point, Xavier and a few of his sympathizers attacked Magneto and made their way to the beach, in order to escape the island. Magneto ended the struggle by paralyzing Xavier with a metal spear through the back. Xavier managed to escape and returned to the United States, where he established his Institute for Gifted Children in Westchester, New York-- using his ancestral mansion as a secret base to train young mutants to use their powers for humanity's benefit.

While in Washington, D.C. meeting with the President of the United States of America, the Professor recieved word from Cyclops that Magneto intended to lay seige to the capital and murder the President. He summoned his X-Men, and engaged Magneto directly. Magneto was able to gain the upperhand but, luckily for the Professor, Magneto was swiftly gutted by Wolverine. In a surprise act Magneto also had his helmet removed by Quicksilver, allowing Xavier to attack Magneto mentally. The Professor entered Magnus' mind and turned him into an incredibly powerful electromagnet, which attracted all the Sentinel parts that littered Washington. Using his telekinesis, the Professor shunted Magneto into Earth's atmosphere and exploded the ball of metal, leaving Magneto presumed dead.
