Magneto

Magneto is an Iconic Supervillain appearing in Marvel Online Universe. Max Eisenhardt, also known as "Magneto", is a powerful mutant, a member of subspecies of humanity born with superhuman abilities, with the ability to generate and manipulate magnetic fields to his will and control metallic objects. A holocaust survivor who lost both of his parents at a young age, his extreme methods and cynical philosophy derive from his determination to protect mutants from suffering a similar fate at the hands of a world that fears and persecutes mutants. Magneto regards mutants as evolutionary superior to humans and rejects the possibility of peaceful human-mutant coexistence; he aims to conquer the world to enable mutants, whom he refers to as Homo superior, to replace humans as the dominant species. He was a founding member of the X-Men, but left the group to form the Brotherhood, a group of extremist/terrorist mutants who believe that mutants are the next step in evolution.

Magneto firmly believes that mutants should fight back against their human oppressors by any means necessary, an ideal that conflicts with the goals of his longtime close friend and occasional enemy Charles Xavier, who seeks a more pacifist approach to mutant prosperity. As such, Magneto is often regarded as the archenemy of the X-Men, though has teamed up with them in the past when the situation called for it.
