Charles Xavier: My school helps mutants control their powers. This is Cyclops, he was my first student and he is totally incapable of controlling his powers. This is Jean Grey, she started with Scott. She also cannot control her powers. And meet Rogue, yep you guessed it, can't control her powers

Undead fae known as the Sluagh were rejected from both heaven or hell. They prey on the dying to add their souls to the ranks of the unforgiven dead. They fly through the air often resembling a flock of birds... #FolkloreThursday
