History

Erik Lensherr and Charles Xavier both shared a dream 8 years ago . A dream to create a safe haven for the mutants. Three years later they started to build a complex in a remote jungle situated in Antarctica called The Savage Land. This complex would later become the Brotherhood's first headquarters. Two years after though Lensherr's - now known as Magneto - and Xavier's opinions about man, and mutantkind's, futures differed so drastically that differing points of view turned to violence. Magneto used his mutant powers to throw a metal pole at Xavier, this hit Xavier in the spine, permanently crippling him. Three weeks after the clash a newly-formed Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy made its first terrorist attack, its target was the Pentagon.

Following the events of Ultimatum, many of the members of the Brotherhood, including Magneto, perished and leaving Sabretooth and Mystique the only survivors, being lead by a vengeful Quicksilver.
