First off i'd be a villain, then i would join a team like the avengers and get on well with everyone, especially the ladies. Then I would do what beast did. Give my character a secondary mutation. Make this be a weird one which turns my character into a temporary villain. The heros try to save me and they win. I regret my actions and join the astonishing X-men where I am written very well and I am an key person to the latest plot where Emma Frost likes me.... afro
