How has your character developed throughout season 2? What event specifically affected them?

Magneto only came onto the scene during season 2, but I like to think he’s been developing slowly but surely. His main focus has been his children, the twins and Lorna, and reconnecting with Jean Grey. The Skrulls were more an after thought for him, he was never truly concerned. Irritated perhaps, because they threatened Mutantkind, but if they killed homo-sapiens in the process, he was almost willing to let them. The Power Swap was interesting for him, but only insofar as it gave him yet another in with Lorna, bonding over the loss of their abilities. The biggest event that has effected him was taking Wanda to Europe, to the gravesite of his first daughter, telling her the truth of who he was -- and more importantly, who she was.

What important relationships changed due to the Skrull Invasion? If they were largely unaffected, do you believe anything could changed in the future?

None of Erik’s relationships changed, though fighting on the Skrull ship did allow him the opportunity to meet T’Challa and Tyrone. I think his relationship with these two might lead somewhere interesting, given that they worked so well together.

What relationships would you like to develop throughout season 3?

Danielle Moonstar. Not only is she a powerful mutant, but Danielle also sees the necessity of violence at times. While Erik considers the X-Force a pitiful half-measure, though not quite as useless as the X-Men themselves, he’s impressed that someone among their ranks had the wherewithal to form such a team. He’s hoping to fold them into the Brotherhood someday, and that starts with Danielle. @moonstarmiragc​

Diana Prince. Erik and Diana had an impromptu meeting and got coffee together, and he finds her delightful. She seemed to enjoy his company too, but of course, he never revealed his identity to her, nor she to him. I think it’ll be interesting to see how these two react to each other in their alter egos, him as Magneto and her as Wonder Woman. @oflove-andwar​

Elizabeth Braddock. As an Omega level mutant, Psylocke is always going to fascinate Magneto. Another member of the X-Force, and a powerful one at that. Erik is always looking to turn people to his side, through flattery and manipulation, though I suspect she won’t be one to fall for it. It’ll still be interesting to see him try. @shurayuki​

Harleen Quinzel. Erik and Harley Quinn keep meeting briefly, but each time he grows more interested in her. I think these two could have an interesting relationship, and he might even tempt her to the dark side of things once more. I’d love for him to find out about her past, and for her to find out about his. @thatclownlady​

Illyana Rasputin. The queen of an entire hell, Illyana would be a powerful ally to have, and Erik knows it. He’s sent Raven to her as well, and spoken to her himself, in an effort to convince her that her efforts are better spent with the Brotherhood. I can’t wait to see where this plot goes. @ruleroflimbo​

Jean Grey. Jean was one of Erik’s first and most precious students. He always saw the potential in her, and he’s been delighted over the years to see that he wasn’t wrong. Jean is truly something special, a force to be reckoned with. And Erik truly believes that he is the only one who will give her the true opportunity to make a difference in the world. Despite their differences of opinion, these two still have a lot of respect for each other, and enough history to make this relationship endlessly fascinating. @lifeincarncte​

June Moone. Erik has only recently learned about June and the Enchantress, and he’s made a promise to help her attempt to control the power within her. He doesn’t yet fully understand the Enchantress, but I imagine once he realizes,  he’ll only be more interested in her. I’d love to see Erik actually talk to the Enchantress, one on one, and see where that conversation leads. @ancientenchantments​

Kitty Pryde. Newly returned from space, Kitty Pryde is one of the most prized and powerful X-Men, and Erik knows that he will never truly sway her to his side. But he does have some level of respect for her, despite the clear disdain she has for him and his methods. I honestly have no idea where this will lead, but I want to see them interact more. @pridefulshadowcat​

Laura Kinney. Erik hasn’t yet had the pleasure of meeting Laura, but I imagine he’s heard rumors of her. Her tactical capabilities and her power in a fight is something he’ll definitely crave, and I think he’ll probably explore a similar line of manipulation as with the Enchantress or Lorna -- offering to teach her, mentor her, help her embrace the ‘vicious’ side of her. @xtwcntythree​

Lorna Dane. His youngest daughter, and the one most clearly like him. Now that she knows the truth about what happened to her family, and now that the Twins are rapidly turning against him, Erik is going to be all the more careful with Lorna. He needs her on his side, to claim that at least one of his children has seen the light. He’s been mentoring her, and he’s about to reveal the truth to her, hoping that she will take it much better than Wanda or Pietro did. @mistresscfmagnetism​

Natasha Romanoff. Nat was the one who gained Magneto’s powers during the Power Swap. They haven’t spoken to each other before or since, but he knows the Black Widow and what she can do. He also knows that she was replaced by Skrulls during the Invasion. I imagine the conversations they could have now would be very poignant. @slcvicshadow​

Raven Darkholme. Mystique, his beautiful, loyal Mystique. No one else has shown the same level of dedication and capability when it comes to carrying out the goals of the Brotherhood. This relationship isn’t romantic, it’s so much deeper than that. Erik knows that Mystique is the one person in the world who would never betray him or let him down, who will never fail to deliver what she promises. He has so much faith in her, but she’s earned every bit of it. He sees her, and she is one of the few to truly see him. He trusts her to carry out his goals, even if he were to perish. More importantly, he trusts her to end him if he ever strays from the path they’ve chosen. @thcmystique​

Tandy Bowen and Tyrone Johnson. Erik met Cloak on the Skrull ship and was impressed with the boy’s aptitude and his bloodthirsty methods. He knows of both, and he’ll want to convince them to join up with him, since he still believes they are mutants. When he finds out they are not, his interest may wane, depending on a few factors. @lightfcrce​ @darkfcrces​

Wanda Maximoff. Erik spent a great deal of time and energy in season 2 trying to worm his way into Wanda’s life, and manipulate her into trusting him. It nearly worked, because the respect he has for her is genuine, and the care he has for her stems beyond their familial relationship. But things are currently rocky, after his spat with Pietro, and the realization that he’s been lying to her for months. I don’t know where it will lead, but Erik still hopes that Wanda will see reason and come to trust him. @thcscarletwltch​

Pietro Maximoff. Erik’s one and only son, and the only child for whom he feels nothing but disappointment. Perhaps it’s because he sees too much of himself in Pietro, though this would be more subconscious than anything else. On the surface, he’s disappointed by the boy’s behavior, his brash attitude, and furious that he’s jeopardized his plan for Wanda. I imagine there will be a lot more tense arguments between these two as the new season goes on. @gcttagofcst​

Johnny Storm. Erik is undoubtedly not a fan of the Human Torch. Beyond his homo-sapien status, he’s also dating Wanda, and Erik doesn’t approve. He thinks she deserves much more than a ‘hot head’ like Johnny. He can’t deny the boy is powerful, but he considers him foolhardy. The two haven’t really had a chance to confront each other, but now that Wanda knows the truth and has presumably told Johnny, things could get very, very intersting. @cftorch​

Scott Summers. In the RP, these two haven’t spoken yet, but there’s a lot of history between the X-Men and Magneto. Particularly with Scott being so close to Jean, I imagine there’d be a lot of tension to cover. So let’s get these two in a room together! @cyclxpswasright​

Remy LeBeau. Gambit is another mutant that Erik hopes to one day sway over to his side. The boy’s petty thefts and tricks are a waste in Erik’s opinion, and he believes that Remy could be much more than that given the right direction. He was already rebuked once from offering that guidance, but he’s not done with Remy just yet. @turn-of-the-cards​

T’Challa Udaku. The king of Wakanda was the other man on the ship that Erik met. Together with Cloak, they managed to free several prisoners, and they fought well together. I imagine these two meeting up again would be very interesting, as they both have a sort of begruding respect for one another. @blackpcnthcr​

Tommy Shepherd. Erik has only recently met Tommy, but he’s already impressed with his capabilities. He sees him as a sort of improved Pietro, and would be very interested in getting closer to the boy. Test his loyalties. @speedyshcpherd​

Tony Stark. Iron Man only challenged Erik once during season 2, and Erik feels that he definitely walked away the victor. But what’s not to love in a thread with a man who wears a metal suit and a man who controls that metal? I think these two could really push each other’s buttons as well, I want more. @the-m3chanic​

Where would you like your character to go throughout season 3? Specifically, how will they react to Battleworld?

I think Erik will see Battleworld as an opportunity. A true test of ‘survival of the fittest,’ and Magneto always believes that Mutants are the fittest in any situation. While he’ll definitely want to overthrow Doom, he may not be eager to return to the world that has oppressed his people for so long. He might even see Battleworld as a chance to rule a dimension for himself, and allow mutants to prosper.

What specific plots would you like to explore during season 3? Remember, this is a great opportunity to form more connections and start arcs with each other!

I’ll definitely be continuing the storylines with each of Magneto’s children, because who doesn’t love a good dose of Magnodad.

In that same vein, Magneto will constantly be trying to convince any and all mutants to join the Brotherhood and fight with him. He’ll do this through manipulation, a sharp intelligence, and meticulous planning.

How has your character developed throughout season 2? What event specifically affected them?

I love my characters un-dying, thank you for asking. Okay, so Steve didn’t technically die, but he doesn’t know that yet. The last thing he remembers is the plane going up in flames around him, which sounds a lot like death? All the time that passed in-between was like the blink of an eye for him, so not only has he had to adjust to the modern world, and technology, and even the way that the English language has progressed, but he’s also has to remind himself that the war is over. He knows now that there have been many wars since then, though this hardly makes him regretful for what he did (and not just because he didn’t actually die). Steve has always been good at getting information from people and at bullshitting his way through things, which I think has helped with the adjustment period. There are a lot of things he can’t wrap his mind around, that I honestly don’t know that he’ll ever entirely understand, but he’s getting a grasp of things enough that he can take the train and shop at stores, etc.

What important relationships changed due to the Skrull Invasion? If they were largely unaffected, do you believe anything could changed in the future?

He didn’t really have any relationships before the invasion. But it sort of indirectly led him to Diana, at least. Like in the comics, Steve will become more involved in the superhero world eventually, but for now he’s still just trying to find some steadier footing. Steve is the kind of person who is used to having allies more than friends, and he’s aloof so people have a hard time getting close to him on a personal level. Being a spy, he’s still so used to only divulging information as necessary that he has a problem when it comes to needlessly withholding things. With things being so strange, and him not fighting in an active war, hopefully he won’t have to work so hard at putting up walls.

What relationships would you like to develop throughout season 3?

He needs somebody in S.H.I.E.L.D or who works with the government who he can prove himself to, who will help him get back to what he knows (that is, espionage, probably not so much the flying WWI fighter planes). The closest person he has to that, and likely his best bet, is Sharon, who he already looks at as someone who functions in a way similar to himself when it comes to subtly sussing others out. Steve’s entire concept of what a superhero could be is built upon fighting alongside Diana, which isn’t too far off, but he still has a lot to learn about mutants and inhumans and aliens, etc. He’s already trying to be understanding about the information thrust upon him thus far, and I think getting to know more about these things that are so new to him will just give him a better chance at like...not dying. And understanding more fully what Earth has become. So I’m very open to all sorts of relationship dynamics with Steve.

Eventually he will not constantly be confused and I hope that day comes during season 3. Again, there are things he’s just not gonna grasp, but he can at least pretend. He has to start sorting out his life, now that all of the initial shock has worn off. What is he going to do with that fact that he, like, legally died 100 years ago? Since his legacy has been fairly well protected, he won’t have to change his name or anything but...ugh. This would be so much paperwork. I’m glad I didn’t die and come back to life, who can be bothered.

How has your character developed throughout season 2? What event specifically affected them?

Yeah so, she un-died, for starters. Developmentally, Elektra has decided that being either a bounty hunter or an assassin isn’t really what she necessarily wants to be doing. She still can and will do either of those things, and she enjoys it, primarily because she’s skilled. If there’s something she can excel at, she’s almost guaranteed to enjoy herself (and a hefty paycheck doesn’t hurt, either). But the last realization she had before dying is that she’s capable of more, that helping people is something she’s actually kind of passionate about. Sometimes. She died protecting somebody she loves, so I think it’s fair to say that she’s more willing to help if her heart is in it, if she has a personal investment in what she’s doing. Or, again, that skrilla. 

What important relationships changed due to the Skrull Invasion? If they were largely unaffected, do you believe anything could changed in the future?

Being super anti-social and pretty much just showing up places to kill people made it easy for Elektra not to be impacted by the Skrull Invasion. It does seem like a bad omen that a group of people (aliens. whatever) would come to Earth and try to take over soon after she was resurrected. She would never say she’s superstitious, but that threw her a lot more than she ever showed.

What relationships would you like to develop throughout season 3?

I don’t want to cop-out here but like...all...of them? There is probably only one person on the planet who she actually trusts or even cares about. Stick was her mentor, so to a certain extent, she has a tendency to default to his judgment. When it comes to handling the Hand (that sounds stupid) when they finally show up to either kidnap or kill her, she would at least want to hear his suggestion as to how to proceed. But where is that guy, who knows. Elektra put herself out there last season so hopefully she can continue with any burgeoning friendships/partnerships, and perhaps meet more people. She gets along best with people who have no qualms with killing but I think it might be interesting if she actually found herself liking more people who have no kill policies.

Where would you like your character to go throughout season 3? Specifically, how will they react to Battleworld?

I’m not sure how far she’ll get, but it would be nice if Elektra learned to trust more people. Honestly maybe she would die less if she had more to live for. That was fake deep but also: true? Doctor Doom as her overlord would be, um, gross, but she would love to take him out. I think Elektra would fair pretty well in Battleword since she’s good at adjusting to crazy shit and the loss of normalcy, if that even exists. Part of why she has such little stability is so she can throw her whole life out of the window if it’s required of her.

How has your character developed throughout season 2? What event specifically affected them?

Jessica lost her sister towards the middle of season one, and throughout season two she’s been dealing with that grief, juggling on-again/off-again sobriety, and trying to find her place in the world. She’s also been exploring and expanding interpersonal relationships. She fell in love, got her heart broken, and might be falling in love again. The Halloween Party was pretty intense for her, and the power swap had a significant effect that’s stayed with her. 

What important relationships changed due to the Skrull Invasion? If they were largely unaffected, do you believe anything could changed in the future?

When the Syndicate/Strike Force War ended, Jessica signed up with the new Panel. While she didn’t know Maria Hill, she trusted Jessica Drew and Bobbi Morse. Now that it’s been revealed that Drew was a Skrull all along, and Bobbi’s left for Europe, Jessica’s relationship with the entire Panel might change. But her work with the Panel did bring her closer to Sharon Carter, an unexpectedly understanding partner and something like a friend. Most of her relationships remained unchanged, because paranoia was nothing new for her, but one significant Skrull replacement that affected her was Jason. Jessica and Jason had an antagonistic sort of friendship before the Skrulls, and she was the one who eventually killed the Skrull replacing him, but not until after the Skrull revealed some personal secrets about Jason. Now that she knows who was a Skrull -- and more importantly, who wasn’t -- some of those relationships she’s started to explore might actually have a chance to grow. (Cough Matt cough.) 

What relationships would you like to develop throughout season 3?

The final Skrull War brought Jessica into contact with the Hulk for the first time. I think the relationship between her and Bruce Banner will move onto a new level because of that. Jessica’s always seen alter-egos as a cop out, always figured that superheros and their ‘normal’ identities were one in the same, but that’s not the case with Banner and the Hulk. @exposed-likeanerve

Sharon Cater and Jessica are newfound partners in (anti-)crime, and that friendship is very interesting because they’ve both recently experienced a loss. And both of them suck at dealing with it. I can’t wait to see how close they become. @agcntcxrter

Jessica knows that she and Matt Murdock are something, but she’s scared to say what exactly. Eventually, they’re going to need to have that talk. And a lot of other talks, mostly because she likes the sound of his voice. Jessica feels really safe with Matt, but she’s tentative and still wounded from her last relationship. I think this relationship could develop into something really beautiful, but right now they both have a lot of secrets. @notdaredcvil

On that note, Jessica’s met Elektra all of one time, but the conversation was absolutely glorious. And now that she has an idea of who Elektra is, that’s going to make their next meeting all the more interesting. I don’t know where they’ll go, but I’m invested. @unsafestars

Jason Todd. Jessica killed the Skrull replacing him, which was hard and traumatizing for her, and she can only barely imagine what he went through. Not to mention all the things the Skrull said before she killed it... I imagine they’ll have a few awkward conversations about that shit. @outlawunderahood

Jean Grey was briefly Jessica’s therapist, and now that they’re not ‘officially’ client-patient, they might actually have a chance to really talk. I think Jessica will actually start opening up to her, provided they can keep building up trust. Either way, I’m stoked. @lifeincarncte

Jessica Drew was orginally a big part of why Jessica Jones signed up for the Panel in the first place. Now learning that she’d been replaced, it’s going to be awkward between the two. They were friends -- or as close to friends as Jones ever gets -- and she’ll be kicking herself for not realizing that Drew had been replaced. She’s also going to be frustrated, unsure whether or not she should stick with the panel. Trust is going to be hard between them now, but maybe they can get past it, or maybe their anger and guilt will take over. @spydcrwoman

Gwen Stacey! Gwen used to be Jessica’s shadow kind of, they bonded intensely in a short amount of time because Gwen was so close to the Jessica Jones of her universe. It’s been a while since they talked, but I think it’s high time they check in on each other again. @spidcrgwens

June Moone -- Jessica only recently had an encounter with both June and the Enchantress, and afterwards, promised to look into June’s ‘issue.’ I think this relationship has a lot of bonding potential, since they both know what it’s like to have your will not entirely be your own. @ancientenchantments

On that same note, Eddie Bloomberg also came to Jessica with a case. To track down his missing godfather. I am the worst and missed a thread reply from like a month ago, but I still wanna pursue this storyline. @dcvilkid

Last, but certainly not least, Tony Stark. He and Jessica broke up months ago now, which sent her into a downward spiral, but she’s finally pulling herself back up. These two will always be important to each other, and now that they’ve both found a way to move on and trust each other again, I can’t wait to see where they end up next. From drinking buddies to friends to lovers to enemies and back to friends -- it’s been a rollercoaster. @the-m3chanic

Where would you like your character to go throughout season 3? Specifically, how will they react to Battleworld?

At the moment, Jessica is more focused on herself than anything else. She’s trying to get sober again, trying to be a decent person, trying to figure out if she can actually do this hero thing. I think Battleworld will be startling for her, but also right up her wheel house. Demons and monsters to punch? She can handle that. Otherworldy dimensions? Not so much. She won’t know how to deal with the bigger issue of getting them back to 616, but she’ll at least be able to stem the bleeding while they’re stuck here. 

What specific plots would you like to explore during season 3? Remember, this is a great opportunity to form more connections and start arcs with each other!

Specifically, I want to explore Jessica’s sobriety more. I want her to finally face up to a lot of her issues, I want her to deal with her grief over Trish, her guilt over the things she’s done, and find a way to let go of Kilgrave once and for all. With season 2 of the Netflix show coming up, I’m sure a lot more about her will be revealed, and I’d love to work some of that into the RP if I can!
