{{Tab}}A white man of indeterminate old age, Erik looks to be in his late 60s upon first glance. His bone-white hair catches less interest now than when he was young, now that there are a handful of silver-gray strands hidden sprinkled in among the rest. He has a large nose and hooded, watery blue eyes sunk deep into a square face. He’s imposing despite his age, as gravity has yet to shave any inches off his six-foot even frame. The number ‘214782’ is tattooed in large, black font on the inside of his left forearm. He favors high collars on his shirts, fine tailoring in his suits, and rich reds and purples in his dress. He typically wears some jewelry on his person – a slim gold band on his right ring finger, a steel ring on a chain tucked under his clothes, and typically a steel chain watch-band-like bracelet on his left wrist. | {{Tab}}A white man of indeterminate old age, Erik looks to be in his late 60s upon first glance.

In English he sounds almost pan-European, touched with an Israeli inflection and occasional British pronunciations of words; in the various Continental European tongues he sounds more distinctly German, but still unclear. | ||

{{Tab}} Famously the former leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants, a terrorist mutant supremacy group. Well-known for the 2015 attack at Liberty Island. Rumour mill attributes all sorts of extraneous terror to him prior to his arrest, some actually committed by the Brotherhood and some not. People either fear him, stan him, or both. "Magneto Was Right" shirts are not uncommon sights at mutant rights protests. Reasonably well-known to be a Jewish Holocaust survivor, though some historians argue about the legitimacy of this claim. | {{Tab}} Famously the former leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants, a terrorist mutant supremacy group.

Now that he's returned, opinions may differ. Members of the Brotherhood old guard may remember him as a vaguely unstable leader that considered far fewer opinions than he does now. | ||

These infrequent visits ended entirely by 2012, but were never any sort of frequent. For most of the X-Men, he's a terrorist brought down by a small part of the 2015 team. | |||

In his past manifestos he has alluded to his experiences in Auschwitz, though no survivors of that camp nor the records recall an 'Erik Lehnsherr' ever interred there. That, plus the tattoo on his left arm, are occasionally subjects of hot debate in historian circles. | ||

Even older members might remember him from the failed "Utopia" mutant island experiment in the 80s. | {{Tab}}Longtime members of the mutant community may remember Erik from the founding of organizations like Genetic Equality New York, before he ran off to start the Mutant Liberation Front and then the Brotherhood.

Still is able to quickly understand larger/older pieces of technology – the interference with his senses from the plethora of smaller devices makes it difficult for him to do much more than brick them. | ||
