Xorn is a fictional character owned by Marvel Comics. He was a mutant who claimed that his mutation had gifted him with a "star for a brain"; as a result, he was a powerful healer and possesed the ability to manipulate energy and gravity. He was originally found by the X-Men Cyclops and Emma Frost in China. He was a valued member of the team, even going so far as to heal Professor Xavier's broken legs.
Soon he was put in charge of the "Special Class", a group of physical and social misfits who attended the Xavier Institute, who he soon commanded as his own unofficial team of X-Men. However, this proved to work against them when he took off his helmet to reveal his identity as none other than the X-Men's nemesis Magneto, who had used his energy-manipulation powers to fake the fictional Xorn's spurious mutation. Upon this revelation, he once again crippled Xavier, levelled Xavier's mansion, and apparently killed Jean Grey before being beheaded by Wolverine.
