STORM
Real Name: Ororo Monroe
Affiliation: X-Men, X-Treme Sanctions Executive
Previous Affiliations: (X-Treme) X-Men, Morlocks (Leader)
Relatives: David (father, deceased), N'dare (mother, deceased), Ainet (foster-mother), Ashake (ancestor)
Codename Etymology: Pronounced stôrm [From Old English st¨rm]; Strong winds with rain or snow, often with lightning.
Powers: Storm is a mutant with atmokinesis: the psionic ability to control the weather. When controlling weather elements, her eyes illuminate a white color and aura. She can manifest any degree of wind, temperature, lightning, storm, ice and all manner of precipitation, tornadoes and hurricanes. She has the ability to control the weather on any planet she is on. Storm was able to tune herself to an entire planet when the elements raged uncontrollably, she was able to calm the planets elements and heal the planets ozone layer. ( issue see 'Storm front' ) Storm has been known to create cosmic turbulence when a Sentinel was about to affect the Earth with a gamma gun to draw a solar flare from the sun to the Earth[1]. Storm is immune to the effects of all weather. Her body changes to compensate for the extremes she engineers; i.e. her body temperature would rise as she caused her surroundings to become cold. She has the ability to project, focus and aim force blasts of extreme electrical bolts from her hands or the sky using her elemental powers. Storm can alter her visual perceptions so as to see the universe as multi-colored energy patterns. She can change the body temperature of anyone by manipulating that temperature and lowering or raising it. The elemental manipulation of the human body also gives her the stunning ability to drain the electrical energy from mutants brainwaves that will literally cause them to lose power. At times, she has used her ability to manipulate wind in a manner that resembles telekinesis, lifting massive objects like buildings and hurling them against opponents, and stop projectiles like bullets. By manipulating the wind Storm can fly at incredible heights and speeds. Not only can she stop most physical attacks with her powers, but she can also generate electric fields, magnetic fields, high-density pressure fields, strong pressure domes that can cut through a mountain and even electromagnetic fields. Storm once even generated an electrolysis field underwater to surround herself and her teammates with a globe of oxygen in their proximity. While once in outer space, to destroy a brood embryo that was inside of her, Storm took her powers to a unimaginable level by gathering the entire energy of a galactic core which consisted of millions of living worlds and stars [2][3]. She can also control ocean currents [4].
Storm is an ecopath and has an empathy/affinity for the earth. She is aware of every living thing and can even "sense" if a tree is ill.
Storm also has the potential to wield white magic because her ancestors were priestesses. In an alternate time-line, Storm taught Illyana Rasputin how to use her magic. With white magic Storm was able to travel the astral plane, teleport, heal herself and others, cast spells, create force fields and more.
Ororo is highly intelligent and an able strategist and field commander of the X-Men.
Her days as a thief have given her mastery of skills normally used by professional thieves, such as stealth, breaking into heavily fortified areas and picking locks (she always keeps a set of lock picks in whatever current costume she wears). She is also an excellent combatant in both armed and unarmed combat, having been instructed by Wolverine.
