X-Men (Earth-617)

A version of the group from the universe known as Earth-617, their origins and ranks have been altered by the fact that Wolverine was killed in combat during WWII, because of which the US government became aware of mutants 20 years ahead of schedule.

Originally it was a government sponsered program, created and led by Erik Lehnsherr and Charles Xavier in 1962. But a falling out after a failed mission caused a rift between the two friends. Without the government's backing, and the exsistance of mutants revealed to the world in 1974, Charles opened a secret school for mutants, the Xavier Institute, that offered to train mutants with controlling their abilities. He peacefully helped numerous mutants over the course of twenty years, until 1992 when the mutant predjucide grew to a boiling point, and an old friend become a extremist threat. In order to protect both races, his most powerful students were enlisted to become a new version of the team he once led. Codenamed the "X-Men", they took on this foe, and soon enough they became a crimefighting team and handled situations that seem impossible to law enforcement agencies, the military, or even fellow superheroes. Xavier hopes their actions will show that mutants can be a force for good, and are not to be feared by humanity.
