Mutant

Mutant(s) (commonly referred to as children of the atom), are people with extraordinary abilities which make them stand out from the rest of the beings in their species.

An examples of a normal human looking mutants are Rogue, Storm and Professor Charles Xavier; while examples of non-human looking mutants are Beast, Nightcrawler, and Mystique.
