Current group affiliation: X-Men Past group affiliations: Excalibur (leader) Major enemies: Magneto, Shadow King. First appearance: Giant Size X-Men #1 Origin: Description: Kurt is a muscular man standing 5'9'' tall and weighing 195 lbs. His body is covered with a dark blue fur, he has solid yellow eyes. His hands only have two fingers and a thumb each and his feet have only two large toes. He has a prehensile tail. History: Since birth, Kurt Wagner has resembled a demon appearance, but his powers of self-teleportation did not emerge until puberty. His unusual physical characteristics, including indigo-colored fur, a prehensile tail, pointed ears, fang-like canine teeth, three-fingered hands and two-toed feet, caused his mother to abandon him, because the people of their village wanted to kill the newborn. Margali Szardos, a sorceress and gypsy queen, found Wagner less than an hour after his birth in a roadside shelter in the Bavarian Alps. Margali took the baby to the small Bavarian circus where she worked as a fortune teller, a cover for her activities as a sorceress. There, circus performers who harbored no prejudices against so-called freaks raised Wagner, and Margali acted as his foster mother. Nightcrawler since has discovered his birth mother to be the X-Men's adversary Mystique, which makes the X-Man Rogue his foster sister and assassinated presidential candidate Graydon Creed his half-brother. When a Texas millionaire who wanted to cast Wagner in his American freak show bought the Bavarian circus, the young mutant quit and made his way toward Winzeldorf, Germany, where his foster brother, Stefan, was living. Wagner discovered Stefan had gone mad and slain several children. Two nights after leaving the circus, Wagner found Stefan and fought him, hoping to end his rampage. During the struggle, Wagner unintentionally broke Stefan's neck. When the villagers discovered Wagner, he was assumed to be a demon responsible for the killings. They were about to kill him when psionically paralyzed by Professor Charles Xavier, who had come to recruit Wagner into the X-Men. Kurt dated the young sorceress Amanda Sefton. Believing the X-Men had died in battle, Nightcrawler joined with the shapeshifter Meggan, Shadowcat, Captain Britain and Phoenix III to form Excalibur, England's premier team of heroes. While with Excalibur Nightcrawler dated the alien warrior Cerise. Excalibur disbanded following the wedding of Captain Britain and Meggan, and Wagner returned to the United States to rejoin the X-Men. Note: The character of Nightcrawler appeared in the X-Men: Evolution television series. Powers: Nightcrawler can teleport himself, his clothing and a certain amount of additional mass from one point to another almost instantaneously. During teleportation, he leaves behind smoke and the smell of burning brimstone, actually part of the atmosphere from the unknown dimension through which he travels. In addition to tremendous natural agility, Nightcrawler possesses the ability to blend into deep shadows by partially moving his body into another dimension. His hands and feet have have micro-suction adaptions which allow him to cling to almost any surface. His tail is very strong, able to holdhis body weight, and can be used as an extra limb.
