  • Principles Forged By A Dark Past

    Magneto is absolutely dedicated to the protection and supremacy of the mutant race over baseline humans. In his long life, he has been both an advocate for mutants and a mass-murdering terrorist on their behalf. He does not believe homo sapiens will allow mutants to live in peace.

    His polarized ethics stem from a tragic past. His parents and sister were killed during the Nazi persecution of Jews, and he spent time in the concentration camp at Auschwitz. After the war, he experienced the persecution of his Gypsy wife Magda, resulting in his separation from his children.
