Biography

Origin

Rogue discovered her mutant powers at age 13. Upon kissing her boyfriend at the time, she unwittingly sapped his power from him. Like many mutants, she became a pariah among her peers until she joined the X-Men.[1]

1992

In late 1992, the X-Men were thrust into mainstream attention following the introduction of the Sentinels, giant mutant-hunting robots, by Henry Gyrich's Mutant Control Agency (MCA). They took a young mutant named Jubilee into their protection after saving her from a Sentinel attack. Professor X tasked the team with infiltrating an MCA base and destroying mutant-registration records. The mission was successful, but Beast was captured and taken to federal prison, and Morph was apparently killed by an attacking Sentinel. Meanwhile, Jubilee was taken by Gyrich to the Sentinel factory in Detroit. The team trailed a Sentinel to the facility and broke inside, freeing Jubilee and destroying the robots there. Gyrich and his chief engineer Bolivar Trask were forced to flee. Jubilee officially joined the X-Men, moving into the school and out of her foster parents' home.[1]
