QUIZ: Guess the X-Men Character!

By Cassandra Pinkney

Being a mutant means lots of things, whether it’s awesome superpowers or maybe even some cool physical features like blue skin or adamantium claws. But above all, it means being misunderstood. There are lots of misconceptions about mutants, and the X-Men face more than their fair share of these misunderstandings. Are you a friend to mutants? Read these descriptions of different X-Men characters and find out if you can guess which character matches each description.

People like to call this X-Men a know-it-all… guess that’s what happens when you get four PhDs. But that doesn’t bother them. They’re too busy passing their knowledge down to the next generation of gifted youngsters.(Required)
This X-Men is intense and stone cold and has nerves of steel (well, maybe not steel exactly…)(Required)
They’ve been told they’re quite the charmer—positively magnetic, even! People may think being a mutant is easy work, but they wouldn’t last a day in this mutant’s shoes.(Required)
People find them to be a little hot and cold, but it’s not their fault that mutants and non-mutants fight like cats and dogs!(Required)
People think this mutant is shady and has problems controlling themself.(Required)
Even as a youngster, this mutant knew they were different. Their powers helped them become a star football player, but their big hands and feet didn’t exactly make them a beauty!(Required)
They’re hypnotically charming and have a penchant for stealing hearts (among other things…)(Required)
They’re easygoing and can blend into any crowd… but that doesn’t mean they won’t turn on you out of the blue!(Required)
