History
Gambit seemingly had a similar history as his Earth-616 counterpart. His mutant powers were apparent at birth as evidenced by his burning red eyes. Abandoned by his parent, the boy was taken in by a group of thieves and given the name Remy LeBeau. Along with thievery, he was taught martial arts and throwing skills. As an adult, he took the codename Gambit.
Coming across an amnesiac Ororo Munroe, Gambit defended her from a group of hunters. After she regained her memories as Storm, he accepted her offer to join her as a member of the X-Men. He and one of his new teammates, Rogue, developed feelings for each other, but this was complicated by Rogue's inability to touch. Through training Rogue was able to control her powers, allowing their relationship to blossom. The pair would later get married, with Anna Marie taking his last name.
Gambit and Rogue were among those teleported to Reality: MS-0815 through a rift. They were granted sanctuary in the Wastelands by Magneto and joined the reformed Brotherhood of Mutants. Erik's daughter suspected that he was replaced by an impostor, discovering him to actually be Xorn.
Remy and a number of the Brotherhood followed Polaris to leave the Wastlands and join War Machine's Avengers Alliance for help. Together, they rescued Magneto from God Emperor Doom's prison. Gambit then joined Cyclops as he reinstated the X-Men to retake the Wastelands.
