Lorna Dane, also known as Polaris, is the daughter of Magneto and half-sister of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.
Biography[]
Polaris is a part of Magneto's family.
She is a lonely girl of about eighteen, isolated from most people. She wishes to see the world and live her life, but fears her father will do something rash if she chooses otherwise. She's daddy's little girl and worked at his every whim.
However, Gambit later arrives and woos her into believing many things, one which included her being trapped in Genosha forever. Polaris harbored some feelings for Gambit, and even attempted to run away with him. However, Gambit in the end betrayed her and taught her the world was exactly like Gambit, distrustful, horrid, yet beautiful. After Gambit's failure in stealing Magneto's helmet, and departure, Lorna still harbors some lingering feelings for him.
At the end, Lorna leaves her father's side, and joins her sister, Wanda. Together, they banish their father and their brother off the island of Genosha.
Alternate Version[]
In a dystopian future, Genosha was destroyed by the Phoenix, Magneto arrived at a tough decision, and sacrificed his life for his daughter. Before he perished, he gave her his helmet and cape to Lorna as a symbol of a legacy passed on. Genosha was eventually destroyed, and Polaris became mentally unstable.
When Charles Xavier and his X-Men showed up. She fought them using her powers, which were as powerful as her father's enough to scare Sentinels away. She treated Professor Xavier as his father's enemy, and blamed them all for his death. Xavier repeatedly stated that he was Magneto's friend and not his enemy. Polaris still attacked, but gave up when Xavier calmed her mind down and gave her back the helmet and cape. He stated that Lorna was never a soldier, and he and Magneto knew that. The poor girl was left to be in her ruined home while they left.
However, Polaris returned with Marrow as what she'd finally trained herself to be what her father thought she'd never become a soldier and believed that as long as she live Magneto's dream might come true. She helped Charles and the others destroy Master Mold.
