•Dilate Power: Ability to place “psychic inhibitors” or “mental blocks” in the minds of mutant adversaries to prevent them from using their powers.
•Psionic Shield: ability to erect a psychic shield for protection of himself and of others’ minds.
•Psionic Blasts: can project psionic force bolts which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness and can even kill an adversary.
•Astral Projection: ability to Astral Travel and communicate with others astrally through his own will, or through contact with the thoughts and memories of others. In the astral realm, he can use his powers to create "ectoplasmic" objects.
•Mental Detection: can sense the presence of another superhuman mutant within a small but as yet undefined radius of himself by perceiving the distinctive mental radiations emitted by such a being.
•Mind Transferral: able to transfer both his mind and powers into other host bodies if his own physical body could be somehow killed.

Family: Doctor Brian Xavier (Father, deceased), Sharon Xavier (Mother, deceased), P. Xavier (Twin brother, whose body he currently inhabits, deceased), Abigail Sharon Xavier (Daughter)
Occupation: HeadMaster of Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. Founder of the X-Men.
Location: 1407 Graymalkin Lane, Salem Center, Westchester New York 10560

He is forgiving of the misdeeds of others, believing truly in the power of redemption and the necessity of never abandoning hope. He believes in the peaceful coexistence of humans and mutants, and unlike his Machiavellian counterpart, believes that the means are equally important to the ends. He is a pacifist by nature, and does not believe in taking lives, but does understand the necessity in fighting for the protection of others. He is generous, to the point of risking himself time and again for others and sacrificing his own comfort and safety to take care of others. He truly loves his X-Men and students, but will fight for the rights of all simply because they deserve those rights. His devotion to his Dream has led many to call him naïve or foolish, however he believes his path to be the correct one, and will not deviate simply because of the beliefs of others. His experience and knowledge make give him wisdom, and he can be thought of as sage. He is not an open book and will keep his secrets. He appreciates a routine, and is not prone to erratic behavior. He has a strong code of what is and is not acceptable usage of his powers, and will not violate it. He is also prone to guilt when he feels he has failed another or his Dream.
Actor: Patrick Stewart
Personal History:
Charles Xavier was born the son of Brian and Sharon Xavier, two wealthy Dutch-American scientists. He was born with a twin brother, however his twin was born without higher brain function, a result of Charles’ powerful mind, developing in the womb. As a result, he was raised as an only child.
His childhood was relatively uneventful. He attended Catholic school, although his parents were Protestant, and he was given every advantage and privilege that could be afforded. He worked hard and finished his high school education at the age of sixteen. His telepathic abilities developed at the age of twelve, although he kept this to himself, practicing control in his spare moments.
At the age of seventeen, while attending Columbia University, he met a young immigrant named Erik Lehnsherr. The two became friends and lovers, each learning of the other’s mutation. Erik, a survivor of the Holocaust, had a number of mental scars which Xavier helped to soothe. During this period, Xavier’s parents passed from complications related to their life-long work with radiation. His father passed first. A few years later, his mother passed on as well.
During his medical/graduate dual program of study, which he began at age eighteen, he met a younger woman, Moira Kinross, a brilliant Scottish exchange student. They became friends. When Erik met Magda and broke off his relationship with Xavier to pursue and eventually marry Magda, Xavier was heart-broken, and struck up a relationship with Moira. They were married, but the relationship did not last more than a couple of years. Xavier’s feelings for Erik were too strong. Xavier practiced psychiatry during this time, and engaged in research with Moira. He and Moira’s marriage dissolved, but they parted as close friends and remained research partners. When Magda divorced Erik, he and Xavier began their relationship a second time. They moved into the house in Westchester that Xavier had inherited.
Xavier switched his career to teaching, accepting a Professorship at Columbia University, from which he had graduated, teaching genetics and psychology. He dreamed of opening a school of his own, dedicated to teaching mutant children, but that goal was several years from being realized. He and Erik worked to develop Cerebro, a device that would enhance Xavier’s natural seeking abilities to help him seek out other mutants.
During this period, Erik received a letter from Django and Marya Maximoff, a Czechoslovakian couple claiming they had adopted his twin son and daughter after Magda passed away. They explained that money was tight and they were no longer able to care for the children. Xavier accompanied Erik to pick up the children and take them back to Westchester to be raised. He grew close to the children, and became their “Uncle Charles.”
Years later, he became aware of young orphan in need, Scott Summers, and they took him into the mansion to begin finding a way to help him control his optic blasts. Soon after, Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters was opened, and they sought out a young girl named Jean Grey to teach as well. She possessed very powerful abilities, in the form of a split-personality who called herself the Phoenix. Xavier suppressed this side of her, to keep the power from consuming her. This was a point of contention between him and Erik.
Other students were taken in soon after, including Ororo Munroe, Henry McCoy, and Jason Stryker, whose militant father eventually removed him from the school. He loved his students as his own children.
Xavier and Erik had a stormy relationship, often debating which method was best to fight for mutant rights. Erik had a far darker and more violent belief system, which Xavier could not follow. This led to fairly frequent arguments.
The arguments were put on hold, when a decade ago, Xavier was in a car accident with a drunk driver. Although he survived the crash, his spine was partially shattered, which confined him to a wheelchair. Erik had been overcome with guilt, and he helped his lover return to health. The school in this period was under Erik’s direction and became a less comfortable place.
When Xavier recovered, the arguments resumed. Eventually Erik chose to leave the school, ending his relationship with Xavier. Erik became a terrorist, Magneto, and Xavier began training the children to fight, should they need the skills in the future.
His first students grew and graduated. The Maximoff twins left for Europe, but the others remained behind to teach and the X-Men were born. Henry eventually left to pursue a career in the government, fighting the good political fight.
More students attended the Institute, and Xavier found his attention split between being HeadMaster and an advocate for mutant rights, working with government contacts, with other civil rights groups, to help fight for equality. He and the X-Men worked to foil Magneto’s terrorist activities, but he never stopped loving his old friend.
After Liberty Island, Magneto was put in prison and Xavier visited frequently, hoping to rehabilitate his friend so he could return to the school. The X-Men added new members, but this was not to last, and the line up returned to its original three members.
When Colonel Stryker tried to implement his plan to destroy all mutant-kind, Xavier was kidnapped and used as a weapon against his own people, under Jason’s illusions. He was rescued, but Jean Grey sacrificed her life to save them all. Xavier would have done the same in her place, but he mourned the loss of his daughter.
In the months after that, Worthington Laboratories developed what they called a Cure for the mutant gene. Magneto launched a war against them, and Xavier was ready to stop him. When Jean Grey was found alive, and the Phoenix resurfaced, he tried to calm her down. Magneto taunted her into attacking her mentor, and his body was destroyed, seemingly killing him. However, he had transferred his consciousness into the body of his brother, located on Muir Island under the care of Moira MacTaggert.
Following the war at Alcatraz, Xavier returned to Westchester to reopen his school and continue his life’s work.
