History

Origin

With an increasing number in the student body, Cyclops & Emma Frost reorganized the Xavier Institute's educational and training program.^[1] The Paladins Squad was advised by Shadowcat.^[2]

Astonishing

This squad suffered some terrible losses during the semester. The first came when Wing was depowered by Ord with the Hope Serum.^[3] Later Wing committed suicide in an attempt to reactivate his powers after being coersed by Danger.^[4] Finally, when S.W.O.R.D. took the X-Men (and Armor) to Breakworld, Shadowcat became trapped inside a giant bullet in order to save Earth.^[5][6]

Members

• Armor - Hisako Ichiki strong willed girl who creates psionic armor around herself. Retained her powers and remained with the X-Men.
• Blindfold - Ruth Aldine is an odd mannered, physically blind girl who can see the future and read minds. Retained her powers and remained with the X-Men.
• Wing - Eddie Tancredi could fly and aspired to become an X-Man. He was depowered by Ord with the Hope Serum.^[3] He later committed suicide in an attempt to reactivate his powers.^[4]

M-Day

After M-Day only 27 of 182 enrolled Xavier's students retained their powers. The Paladins Squad was disbanded along with all the other X-Men Training Squads.^[7]

Notes

• Due to losing both Wing and Shadowcat, it is likely that they did not participate in the Field Day events, and it is possible that this squad was disbanded prior to M-Day.
