Introduction
|
xxxxx The MASTER of MAGNETISM. You've probably heard of him.

|
Description
|
xxxxxA white man of indeterminate old age, Erik looks to be in his late 60s upon first glance. His bone-white hair catches less interest now than when he was young, now that there are a handful of silver-gray strands hidden sprinkled in among the rest. He has a large nose and hooded, watery blue eyes sunk deep into a square face. He’s imposing despite his age, as gravity has yet to shave any inches off his six-foot even frame. The number ‘214782’ is tattooed in large, black font on the inside of his left forearm. He favors high collars on his shirts, fine tailoring in his suits, and rich reds and purples in his dress. He typically wears some jewelry on his person – a slim gold band on his right ring finger, a steel ring on a chain tucked under his clothes, and typically a steel chain watch-band-like bracelet on his left wrist.
xxxxxHe has an accent from everywhere and nowhere. In English he sounds almost off-British, a melding of European accents and a mix of both British and American pronunciations of words; in the various Continental European tongues he sounds more distinctly German, but still unclear.

Reputation
|
xxxxxFamously the former leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants, a terrorist mutant supremacy group. Well-known for the 2015 attack at Liberty Island. Rumour mill attributes all sorts of extraneous terror to him prior to his arrest, some actually committed by the Brotherhood and some not. People either fear him, stan him, or both. "Magneto Was Right" shirts are not uncommon sights at mutant rights protests. Reasonably well-known to be a Jewish Holocaust survivor, though some historians argue about the legitimacy of this claim.
xxxxxLongtime members of the mutant community may remember Erik from the founding of organizations like Genetic Equality New York, before he ran off to start the Mutant Liberation Front and then the Brotherhood. Even older members might remember him from the failed "Utopia" mutant island experiment in the 80s.

History
|
xxxxxA private man, very little is publicly known about Magneto's early life. In manifestos he has expounded on his experiences in Auschwitz, though no survivors of that camp nor the records recall an 'Erik Lensherr' ever interred there. That, plus the tattoo on his left arm, are occasionally subjects of hot debate in historian circles.
xxxxxWhat is more publicly known is his rise to national prominence in the mid-90s as the leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants, a terrorist group dedicated to protecting mutants by any means necessary. His attack on Liberty Island was well-covered and reported by various news outlets, as was his subsequent arrest.

Peace Was Never An Option - Founder and leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants. A fan of violent, direct action for mutant rights, he's probably interested in you if you have something to say and something you can do for the cause.
|
L'dor Vador - An Auschwitz survivor of loose faith, Erik does have some attachment to his religion, if not to any god. Had been seen in past lives and under other names as intermittently participating in survivors advocacy and networking, and went consistently to at least Yom Kippur services in the years before his arrest.
|
Fancy A Game? - A terrible chess player, it is nonetheless his favorite game. A board is almost always set outside his cabin on Ascension Island, and Brothers are welcome to play with him should they catch him at rest.
|
When I Was a Young Man... - Erik's been alive for nearly a century. He can tell you about all sorts of history -- he was there for most of it.
