Ororo Munroe: Storm Appreciation 2020

[LordAllMIghty]

It's hard to encapsulate her powers into just 10 specific feats, but overall, this is how I see it:

10. Mutant metabolism.

Ororo's x-gene expresses in her the inborn connection to the natural forces of the environment; presumably her mitochondria are exceptionally efficient at creating energy, so her thoughts/nervous system are connected to/act upon the physical elements of nature, such as air temperature, atmospheric electromagnetism, and the hydrosphere, for example. This ability is somewhat autonomic, but she can manipulate it at will and has developed an exceptional level of control, both on her own before joining the X-Men, and since engaging in their Danger Room trainings and super-heroics, allowing her to fly on wind, and use the weather both offensively and defensively. Ororo's mutation makes her virtually immune to temperature extremes, can process tremendous amounts of electromagnetic energy without lasting damage, and allows her breathe in rarefied environments(like the edge of space, or underwater).

9. Sight beyond sight.

When Ororo consciously uses her powers, her eyes glaze over in pure white. This may be due to a physical clouding of the anterior chamber within the eyes, between the cornea and iris, or it may be plasmatic/electrical in nature. In either case, when her eyes go white, she no longer sees the world in terms of visible light interacting with matter, but as a prismatic, mercurial, sea of energy cascades, presumably extending her perception into otherwise invisible EM frequencies. It is by influencing this energetic matrix underlying reality that Ororo is able to manipulate the elements. When experiencing the world this way, she can see into a person's body, into their very nervous system. She can track the movement of a target through the sky following it's trail. Presumably this extrasensory perception extends beyond her physical range of vision, as she is able to geolocate her own position based on the atmosphere( sky topography) or even accurately pinpoint a target from thousands of miles away(knocks the Blackbird out of the sky in America from Wakanda).

8. Waterbender.

While Ororo typically employs wind and lightning as her main weapons, she is also is mistress of the water. Using the same energy dynamics to control the air, Ororo can also sculpt water like a sculptress does clay. She can use underwater currents to propel herself or other vessels. She can make life-like bodies and faces from clouds or water. She can create and dispel massive waves. She can split water into hydrogen and oxygen with a thought, and of course change it from liquid to solid and back to gas or even plasma, as she so desires.

7. Mistress of electromagnetism.

Lightning is Ororo's favorite weapon. She can conjure bolts from within her own body, or draw them from the environment. She can melt through metal, vaporize enemies, or simply jolt or stun them, according to her will. She can also use subtle electromagnetic fields to interrupt or destroy electronics, either precisely(such as wiping a camera's memory card while not destroying its other functions) or in large EMP busts(to take out a swath of Sentinels, for example). And while Ororo usually rides the wind, she can also ride lightning, or perhaps even teleport through lightning, at extremely fast speeds.

6. Brainstorm.

So precise is Ororo's electromagnetic manipulation that she is able to sense the cascade of synapses in another person's nervous system, anticipating their physical movements. She can even manipulate their flow, causing either gentle, temporary dysfunction, or outright violent and fatal paralysis(vs. Mr. Sinister). The capacity for her own nervous system to interface with the electromagnetic forces of nature(and the commiserate willpower necessary to wield these forces) also seems to grant her a high level of resistance against telepaths.

5. Planetary megastorms.

Ororo's mutation allows for precise and widespread feats. She has on numerous occasions created city-sized, continental, hemispherical, and even complete planetary megastorms of unparalleled intensities. She has even shielded the entire planet from a lethal solar flare with one such storm(powered by a gamma ray device).

4. Solar winds.

Speaking of solar flares, Ororo's mutation does not stop at the edge of the earth's gaseous atmosphere. Her first time in space she was able to use the faint stream of charged particles from the sun(solar winds) to fly and destroy a Sentinel. She once manipulated the solar winds to interact with the upper atmosphere and create daylight-visible aurorae effects all over the planet(without destroying the electrical grid!) while mourning the passing of Logan. She can even select aspects of the solar radiation at will, and open the magnetosphere to let them in, which allowed her to vaporize a tidalwave at pointblank range. Other aspects this ability would allow for the direct manipulation of atomic structures, gamma waves, anti-matter, and other exotic upper atmospheric phenomena.

3. Galactic core.

When faced with the realization she had been implanted with a Brood egg and that it would take her life and have her powers, Ororo ran from her teammates and took a small spaceship into the deep cosmos, where they would not be hurt. As the Broodling began to take over her body, transforming her into a Brood, her ship passed through a dark nebular(space cloud), and the bright light of the nearby galactic core reversed the transformation. A galactic core is the center of a galaxy where the stars are much closer together, and so she had millions of stars and planets to draw power from. And draw power she did, when she harnessed the power of them all to burn the Broodling out of her system. For a brief moment, she was the brightest thing in the galaxy!

2. Goddess.

When Ororo's powers first manifested in her youth, many people thought of her as a goddess and worshipped her as such. In fact, her mother's family lineage is filled with powerful priestess-queens. Ororo herself called out to the Goddess and was met by Her. When Charles recruited Ororo, he told her she was not a goddess, but a mutant. And while Ororo indeed carries the mutant x-gene, she may be something more. When Doom turned her into chrome, she boiled over in rage, and when released was transcending her mortal form in elemental fury, but her friends helped her stay grounded. When she lost her powers, the Asgardian Loki tried to trick her into being his own thunder god, but she broke his spells. When Death came for her then husband T'Challa, she challenged Death on their own turf....and pushed them back! And when the Adversary tried to take over Wakanda, the worship of T'Challa and his people awakened in Ororo a dormant magic that was able to defeat the demon. Maybe Charles was wrong, and the tribesmen right, after all.

1. Dimensional M-Brane

The multiverse is populated with many deities from many pantheon, and many realms. When Cytorrak's avatar(the Juggernaut) proved to be so unstoppable that not even dimensional membranes could stop him, the X-Men ended up in a completely other dimension! All their powers were behaving strangely, but in Ororo's case it was more. So much so that the local gods, the totality of past, present, and future in this dimension, the Trion, tried to trap her in a mental illusion so she could not act. Once Ororo saw through the illusion and struck back, she found that she was able to usurp these gods, tank their best shots, and repair the entire DIMENSION that was unraveling due to Juggernaut's rupture. Mistress of the elements indeed!

Nice Yoga. I agree with all these.

[stormphoenix]

Doesn't # 6 speak to her ability to control large bodies of water?

Yes, but i'm referring to Storm creating that Giant Tsunami on Genosha or when she created a water construct using water to make Jeans Face..

[yogaflame]

Yupp. Hosting Eternity's consciousness should have definitely been listed...among the top three.

The only reason I didn't use that one is because that was really more a matter of her strength of spirit, not her powers per say. Obviously it's hard to separate one from the other for her. If anything, that would be an aspect of her Goddess nature.

[yogaflame]

Nice Yoga. I agree with all these.

Wow, you did an amazing job with this compilation and summary. Impressive.

thoughts?

Hey Kyss ! All is well. I hope you are all good and staying safe. The list has some goodies but we definitely know more impressive feats for a top 10. I do like that they noted her ability to ride the lightning. A simple application of her abilities that should be used more often. I love Yoga's list @ Yogaflame.

thank you yoga very well written!!!!!

I would just like to add that beyond the synapses in the brain she can also control the same ones that allow our heart to beat instantly allowing her to cause someone's heart to stop.

also, I would argue she is immune to the elements. I know later writers came and tried to rewrite how her powers worked but Claremont stated pretty early on that none of the weather manifestations can harm her.

I'm glad to hear that you are doing well my friend. all is good on my end too!! I liked the acknowledgment of her riding lightning as well.

This was Amazing.
Very well put.
Can someone please send this to Rooster teeth Death battle plz!

[BlkGldBlu]

I know we are excited at the prospect of Storm in MCUBP.
But how do you guys feel about Storm making an appearance in MCUBlade or Blade2 Dracula related story instead

[Saturius]

Don't like any of those choices. Storm is an X-Character first and foremost. I want her debut in one. Not BP, Blade or Dracula.

[butterflykyss]

there's a new marvel rumbles that's storm is featured in. looks like she will be faced off against thor. stay tuned:

[BlkGldBlu]

Don't like any of those choices. Storm is an X-Character first and foremost. I want her debut in one. Not BP, Blade or Dracula.

Are you serious?
While other x characters may get intro in others movie , (Rouge wolverine Namor )why would you not want the same level of exposure for Storm?

Or is it simply just that you don't like my choices , what would be you pick. I just chose Canon source.

[butterflykyss]

I know we are excited at the prospect of Storm in MCUBP.
But how do you guys feel about Storm making an appearance in MCUBlade or Blade2 Dracula related story instead

I prefer black panther for her introduction. it makes the most sense if we look at her origin story.

[sugarfree]

Don't like any of those choices. Storm is an X-Character first and foremost. I want her debut in one. Not BP, Blade or Dracula.

First of all, they will introduce each individual X-men (probably all of them) from different established MCU titles just like they did with the Avengers. It just builds hype and excitement. That's what happened to Avengers and how its introduction was more fascinating and exciting compared to Suicide Squad which had no build up.

Storm getting introduced in BP is already a blessing as that means they'll give her character focus. You want to wait for an X-Men movie if all the other X-Members are already debuting in other MCU movies? You want her to join late to the party? Nah.

[stormphoenix]

I’m waiting for some X-Men Books. So bored.......
