Mutants
[Locked to mutants, both born and made through the pulse]

I have been waiting and watching, and I believe it is time to speak.

My name is Erik Lehnsherr, and I am a mutant. I have the ability to manipulate and control metal. I understand there were some people hit by a "pulse" that caused them to develop new abilities. Someone caused it, and knowing humans, they will be looking for you. Perhaps they've already found you, or tried to experiment on you. I've seen this before, and they will not stop.

Brothers and sisters, we don't need a cure, and there isn't one, nor should they be. We are capable of many great things, things that ordinary people cannot fathom. And they will hate and fear you for it.

I had a team before. We found and protected mutants, and prepared for the coming war, because there is one. It is only a matter of time. Join me if you wish to be a part of real action, not hiding and hoping for the best.

	I have no intention of hurting other mutants. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But if they stood against you, would you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If I had to, yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So you'd hurt people. Mutants, even. To protect them. I know we have enemies. People who want to hurt us, people who've tried. But they don't represent everyone and before the pulse a lot of us were human. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't want to kill all humans, that would be ~~impractical~~ ~~unreasonable~~ wrong. I'm Jewish, I survived the death camps in World War II. I just have no interest in mutants sharing the same fate as my people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Cursor blink.] Yeah, neither do I. Xavier doesn't either, though. So why not work together? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Charles prefers to keep from violence, even when provoked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Violence can be a slippery slope. You start justifying it in certain circumstances and suddenly it's hard to stop. Maybe that's why. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's always justified when it's self defense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Self defense becomes a pretty broad term after a while. [...] Or it can. (Reply to this) (Parent)
