Mystique (Raven Darkhlme) is a fictional character associated with the Marvel Comics' franchise X-Men. Originally created by
artist David Cockrum and writer Chris Claremont, she first appeared in Ms. Marvel #16.
Throughout most of her history, Mystique has been a supervillain, founding her own Brotherhood of Mutants and assassinating
several important people involved in mutant affairs. Mystique herself is a mutant, a shapeshifter whose natural appearance
includes blue skin and yellow eyes. At one point, she mentions that she is over 100 years old. Mystique is the mother of the
villain Graydon Creed, the X-Men hero Nightcrawler, and adoptive mother of the hero Rogue. She is forced to abandon
Nightcrawler, but raises Rogue for a number of years, and the two women have mixed feelings towards one another.
