Mystique (Raven Darkhölme)[2] is a fictional character associated with the Marvel Comics' franchise, X-Men. Originally created by artist David Cockrum and writer Chris Claremont, she first appeared in Ms. Marvel #16.[3]
Throughout most of her history, Mystique has been a supervillain, founding her own Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and assassinating several important people involved in mutant affairs. Mystique herself is a mutant, a shapeshifter whose natural appearance includes her blue skin and yellow eyes. At one point, she mentioned she is over 100 years old.[4] Mystique is the mother of the villain Graydon Creed, the X-Men hero Nightcrawler,[5] and foster mother of the hero Rogue.[2] She was forced to abandon Nightcrawler, but raised Rogue for a number of years and the two women have mixed feelings towards one another.[2]
Despite Mystique's history of crime, she was most recently working with the X-Men's Professor X in a short-lived series.[6] She was later voted straight into the X-Men.[7] Actress Rebecca Romijn portrays Mystique in the X-Men films.[8] In 2009, Mystique was ranked as IGN's 18th Greatest Comic Book Villain of All Time.
