List of X-Men: Evolution characters

The entire X-Men roster as seen in the series finale.

The series X-Men: Evolution featured a diverse cast of complicated characters. A common staple of the series was whether a particular person had chosen their allegiances correctly, with several instances of a character switching teams.

X-Men

Teachers

• Professor Charles Xavier (voiced by David Kaye) is the team's telepathic mentor and financier. In the series finale, he temporarily becomes Death, one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse, and is given glimpses of the future.

• Logan / Wolverine (voiced by Scott McNeil) is a combat trainer for the X-Men who possesses superhuman strength and adamantium claws. Though similar in most ways to the classic Wolverine, he is depicted as less violent and is designed to be more of a role model for the students.

• Ororo Munroe / Storm (voiced by Kirsten Williamson), as her codename implies, is able to harness and manipulate weather. Ororo is known for her calm personality and regal manner, and she was even worshipped as a goddess in Africa due to her ability to summon the rains. In the comics, Ororo is an only child and an orphan; in Evolution, she has a sister named Vivian and a nephew, Spyke. In the series finale, she temporarily becomes Famine, one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse.

• Hank McCoy / Beast (voiced by Michael Kopsa) joins during the second season. Beast is similar to his comic counterpart in most ways, though the Evolution version speaks more casually. He was originally a gym coach and chemistry teacher at Bayville High before joining the X-Men after the medicine he created to suppress his mutation stopped working.

Students

• Scott Summers / Cyclops (voiced by Kirby Morrow) is a leading member of the X-Men who can generate lasers from his eyes. However, he is unable to control his powers and must wear a ruby visor to prevent them from constantly activating. Contrasting with many other incarnations, Cyclops is not the aloof, doubtful loner, but a handsome and confident leader who exudes natural authority, although he is still somewhat standoffish. While the other students tend to look up to him, his competitive nature and temper get in the way at times.
• Jean Grey (voiced by Venus Terzo) is the second-in-command of the X-Men, with her and Cyclops teaching younger students at the Xavier Institute. She possesses telepathy and telekinesis that enables her to generate force fields.
• Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler (voiced by Brad Swaile) is a demon-like mutant who can teleport by traveling through another dimension. He is the biological son of Mystique, but was raised by foster parents in Germany. For much of the show, Nightcrawler uses a holographic image inducer to hide his appearance.
• Kitty Pryde / Shadowcat (voiced by Maggie Blue O'Hara) is a member of the X-Men who can become intangible. Throughout the series, she enters a relationship with Avalanche and develops a sibling-like friendship with Nightcrawler.
• Rogue (voiced by Meghan Black) is the adoptive daughter of Mystique, who was raised by Irene Adler in Mississippi. She possesses the ability to drain the abilities of others, but cannot control her powers and wears gloves to block them. ^[1] In a flash-forward depicted in the series finale, Rogue enters a relationship with Gambit and stops wearing gloves.
• Evan Daniels / Spyke (voiced by Neil Denis) is a series-original character and Storm's nephew, with the ability to project bonelike spikes from his skin. ^[1] In the third and fourth seasons, Spyke loses control of his powers after accidentally drinking a soda that is harmful to mutants, permanently manifests bone armor across his body, and joins the Morlocks. Spyke has been compared to Marrow due to their similar powers and ties to the Morlocks, but the creators have stated that they were unaware of Marrow when the show's production began. ^[1]

New Mutants

As a whole, the New Mutants did not have a significant role in the series. They were added in the second season of the show to make the Xavier Institute seem more populated by having several students in the background, and primarily have supporting roles.

• Bobby Drake / Iceman (voiced by Andrew Francis), the most outgoing of the new recruits, later becomes a standby X-Man to take the place of Spyke. He can manipulate temperature, enabling him to generate and transform into ice.
• Samuel Guthrie / Cannonball (voiced by Bill Switzer) is a member of the New Mutants who can propel himself through the air at high speeds.
• Ray Carter / Berzerker (voiced by Tony Sampson) is a member of the New Mutants who can generate electricity. Additionally, he is a former member of the Morlocks and is depicted as less violent than his comics counterpart.
• Jubilation Lee / Jubilee (voiced by Chiara Zanni) is a member of the New Mutants who can generate plasma blasts referred to as "Fireworks". In the third season, Jubilee leaves the Xavier Institute because her parents believe it is unsafe.
• Amara Aquilla / Magma (voiced by Alexandra Carter) is a member of the New Mutants who can manipulate the earth and emit heat. She has a somewhat haughty, "royal" attitude at times, and is easily discouraged when she does not live up to her own expectations. Furthermore, Magma has a physiological connection with the earth and becomes ill when separated from it for long periods of time.
• Jamie Madrox / Multiple (voiced by David A. Kaye) is a member of the New Mutants who can duplicate himself. He has a hard time controlling his powers and is the subject of a running gag where he duplicates after being injured.
• Roberto Da Costa / Sunspot (voiced by Michael Coleman) is a member of the New Mutants who can absorb and manipulate solar energy.
• Rahne Sinclair / Wolfsbane (voiced by Chantal Strand) is a Scottish member of the New Mutants who can transform into a wolf.

Brotherhood of Mutants

The Brotherhood of Mutants are a group of mutant criminals led by Magneto who oppose the X-Men throughout the series. In a flash-forward depicted in the series finale, the group's members reform and join S.H.I.E.L.D.

• Raven Darkholme / Mystique (voiced by Colleen Wheeler) is a member of the Brotherhood who possesses shapeshifting abilities. In the first season, she works undercover as the principal of Bayville High. Additionally, Mystique is the biological mother of Nightcrawler and the adoptive mother of Rogue. In the series finale, she becomes Pestilence, one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse.

He is often irrational and driven by his temper, but as the series progresses, he becomes more mature and pragmatic, taking on a morally ambiguous role.

• Fred Dukes / Blob (voiced by Michael Dobson) is a member of the Brotherhood who possesses a large, durable body. He appears tough, but is shown to have a sensitive side.
• Pietro Maximoff / Quicksilver (voiced by Richard Ian Cox) is Magneto's son and a leading member of the Brotherhood who possesses superhuman speed.
• Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch (voiced by Kelly Sheridan) is Magneto's daughter and possesses the mutant ability to manipulate probability. Magneto previously imprisoned Wanda in an asylum due to her inability to control her powers before Mystique freed her. In the present, Wanda attempts to seek revenge against Magneto, but Mastermind manipulates her into being devoted to him.

Acolytes

When the Brotherhood of Mutants fall out of Magneto's favor, he creates a new team. Though never named on-screen, they resemble the Acolytes, a team led by Magneto in the comics.

• Erik Lehnsherr / Magneto (voiced by Christopher Judge) is the leader of the Acolytes, who possesses the ability to manipulate magnetism. In the fourth season, Magneto is transformed into War, one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse, before the X-Men free him.
