X-Men

Logan / Wolverine
A mutant who lost memory of his life before he was grafted with an indestructable adamantium skeleton. Wolverine is a loner, but is in love with Jean Grey and acts as a father figure to Rogue. He wields three blades that come out of his fists, has a keen sense of smell and the ability to heal from any injury.
Professor Charles Xavier
A powerful telepathic mutant confined to a wheelchair who founded a School for "Gifted Youngsters", Xavier is a pacifist who believes humans and mutants can live together in harmony. He uses the Cerebro device, designed by Magneto and himself, to track and locate mutants across the world. A natural genius, Xavier is regarded as an authority on genetic mutation.
Eric Lehnsherr / Magneto
Once Xavier's ally, Magneto now believes mutants are superior to humans. Magneto wields the ability to manipulate metal and wears a helmet that renders him immune to Xavier's powers. Imprisoned after his scheme in the first film, he is drugged by William Stryker for information over Cerebro, before making his escape and forming an alliance with the X-Men to stop Stryker. He has demonstrated sophisticated knowledge in matters of genetic manipulation and engineering.
Colonel William Stryker
A human military scientist who plans a worldwide genocide of mutants using Xavier and Cerebro. Stryker has experimented on mutants in the past, including Wolverine, and uses a serum to control them.
Kurt Wagner / Nightcrawler
A kindly German mutant with a strong Christian faith, yet ironically he has the appearance of a blue demon. Nightcrawler was used by Stryker in an assassination attempt on the President of the United States, and gives help to the X-Men. He is capable of teleporting himself (and others) instantly from one location to another. On his body are many tattoos, one for every sin.
Marie D'Ancanto / Rogue
A girl who can absorb any person's memories and abilities by touching them. As she cannot control this power, Rogue can easily kill anybody and thus is unable to be close to anyone.
Bobby Drake / Iceman
Rogue's boyfriend, he can freeze objects and create ice. His family is unaware that he is a mutant and simply believe he is at a boarding school, and returning home Bobby reveals to them what he actually is, much to his brother's derision.
John Allerdyce / Pyro
A friend of Bobby and Rogue, Pyro has anti-social tendencies and has the ability to control (although not create) fire. Magneto tells him that "You are a God amongst insects; never let anyone tell you different."
Jean Grey
A teacher at Xavier's school and the X-Mansion's doctor, Jean has begun to experience a growth in her telepathy and telekinetic powers since the X-Men's battle with Magneto. She is in love with Cyclops, even though she is attracted to Wolverine.
Mystique
Magneto's henchwoman, she is a shapeshifter. Mystique is blue, naked and covered in scales, and acts as a spy. She injects a prison guard with metal for Magneto to make his escape with, and also sexually tempts Wolverine.
Scott Summers / Cyclops
Jean's fiance, field leader of the X-Men, and a teacher at Xavier's Institute, he shoots uncontrollable beams of light from his eyes and wears a visor to control them. Cyclops is taken prisoner by Stryker.
Ororo Munroe / Storm
An African mutant and teacher at Xavier's School who can manipulate the weather. Storm befriends Nightcrawler.
Yuriko Oyama / Lady Deathstrike
A woman, who like Wolverine, has a healing ability, and is controlled by Stryker. She wields talons in her fingernails.
Jason Stryker / Jason 143
William Stryker's son. He was sent to Xavier's school in an attempt to "cure" his ability to create illusions. Returning home, Jason tortured his parents until his mother committed suicide. His father lobotomized him and uses a fluid from his brain to control mutants. Xavier's mind is too strong for the fluid however, and Jason is used instead in order to manipulate him in Stryker's genocidal scheme.
