Personality

Rogue is an uncertain and insecure teenager, not the voluptuous bombshell

she grew to be in the comics. She isolates herself from other people

because of her mutant ability which prevents her from making any

physical contact with people. Rogue's isolation leads her to be

petulant, sarcastic and alarmingly defensive. Thanks to her isolation,

Rogue has trouble trusting people. Since joining the X-Men, Rogue

has become closest with her room-mate Kitty and maintains a crush

on the X-Men's field leader, Scott. Although she recently showed

interest in Magneto's henchman Gambit as they both realized

that they had a great deal in common (including adopted

parents who prefer to nurture their powers rather than them),

and are now friends if nothing else, though there seems to be

more to it than that. However, she is very smart. She had two

separate classes with Scott Summers, who is a year older than her.

She has jumped forward a year in two of her classes, possibly more

 

Physical appearance

 

• Rogue's Outfits

 

Rogue has short auburn hair with white streaks as

 bangs in the front of her hair. She has grey eyes and a pale skin

complexion, and she wears purplish-blackish makeup and lipstick.

 Rogue usually wears a transparent green see-through blouse with

a black halter top underneath, a black leather skirt with black leggins.

She wears thick combat boots, and dog collars around her neck and

wrists. Black gloves cover her hands and easily come off when Rogue

needs them too. This outfit is worn most of the time by Rogue.

So overall, she appears to be quite Goth.

 

In her second outfit, Rogue shows more skin as she wears a dark purple

halter top, long purple gloves that come up almost to her shoulders,

and a knee length skirt covered with a white chain that hangs around

her waist. Knee high boots are worn, and a light purple skarf protects

her neck, and chest areas.

 

Her three outfit is less dressy, and a little less gothic.

She wears a purple shirt tied at the front and it falls on

to her shoulders, showing some skin. Underneath that you see her black

halter top. Either black or really dark blue jeans are worn instead of a skirt.

They have tears around her knees. Sneakers are worn instead of boots.

Again, gloves protect her hands from her power.

 

In her X-Men uniform, Rogue wears a dark navy blue bodysuit.

Gold platlets with the "X" logo are on both of her shoulders, while

a green platlet goes around her bust area. A gold utility belt also

marking the "X" logo goes around her waist, while small platlets

protect her knees. Knee high boots are worn for shoes, and thick

 brown gloves worn on both hands.

 

 

Powers & Abilities

Rogue has the ability to absorb a persons life force through

skin to skin contact aquiring there memories, skills, powers,

 and a fraction of there personality for a limited time. The

longer she stays in contact with them the longer she retains

the skills and abilities she absorbs. However Rogue retains

memories for a much longer period. If gue absorbing Kitty's

dancing skills Rogue stays in contact with someone for too long

she may put them in a coma or even kill them. Even though the

powers and skills she absorbs fade away, when Rogue touches

someone a small piece of them stays inside her. In the episode

"Self Possesed" all the previous personalities that Rogue has

 absorbed begin to struggle for controle of her body. In the end

Rogue was able to use all the abilities she has ever absorbed

before Proffesor Xavier wiped all the personalities from her mind

. Later in the episode" Dark Horizon, Part 1" Rogue absorbed

and used the powers of the X-men, Brotherhood, and Magneto's

Acolytes, Showing that with time and development she may be

able to access past abilities and skills she has absorbed.

Early Life

Scott talking to Jean though Rogue In terms of her birth,

Rogue's is a complete mystery. Born to an unknown

mother and father, she fell into the care of the shape

shifting Raven Darkholme when she was four. It is unclear

exactly when Mystique entered the picture, but Rogue was

still a toddler at the time and Raven went to great lengths

to hide her in a secluded area. The area she eventually

chose was the backwater town of Caldecott County

Mississippi. This is where Rogue grew up and where

she considers home. While attending a party, Rogue's

powers manifested. She possesses the ability to take

energy, memories, personality traits, and (if they are mutants)

their powers for a short time through touching their skin. When

she first got her powers, she was unable to control the powers

she obtained. She also could not distinguish the memories

taken from whom she touched from her own.
