History
Magnus is the son of an Earth-27 version of Magneto and Rogue. Assumingly, Magneto used his powers to alter Rogue's DNA so they can touch. They had a child together, who they named Magnus, (possibly after his father).
One day, Magnus found himself in the middle of a barren desert alongside five other X-Men from five different realities. They were greeted by the Timebroker, a construct of their collective consciousness, who explained to them that they had all become unhinged from time as a chain of events had caused their realities as they knew them to change. New events in his past caused him to accidentally kill his mother a week after his thirteenth birthday by turning her into steel. His father never recovered from the loss and resumed his battle on humanity. In order to return to their correct timelines, they would have to repair other realities that caused the ripple effect that disrupted their reality or they would return to their alternate existences.
On the Exiles' first mission the Tallus instructs Blink to, "find your greatest teacher." The rest of the team decided that the Tallus could only mean their mentor, Professor Charles Xavier. Magnus constructed a make-shift Cerebro and utilized his powers in conjunction with Nocturne's latent and Mimic's residual psychic powers to locate Charles Xavier in a holding facility somewhere in Nevada.
While the other Exiles distracted the guards, Blink teleported Magnus inside the prison where he used his powers to seemingly melt away Xavier's metal shackles. In a wicked turn of events, this Xavier has been marred by his imprisonment at the hands of the humans and would sooner die than help create a society where mutants and humans lived together in harmony. He knocks the Exiles out with a Psi-Blast and leaves them for dead. The Exiles later learned that the great "teacher" that they should have sought was actually Magneto. This causes Magnus to feel ashamed for not considering his father as a viable option. At this point, the Exiles split with half of the team off to find Magneto and the other half left to put a halt to Xavier's mayhem.
Magnus carried Blink and Nocturne to the prison where Magneto is being held. There he intercepted a radio relay that the place is rigged with an atomic bomb. Seeing no other timely resolve, he forced all the captives away to a nearby beach and, using the utmost of his powers to encase the explosion, sacrificed himself so that others may live.
Months later, when Blink and the other Exiles took over Panoptichron and emptied the stasis gallery where Magnus' body was held, they sent him home to his parents, both alive and together again, with a note saying that he died a hero.Powers and Abilities
