Undugu wa Vioja Viovu utambulishwa. Magneto alileta pamoja timu inayotungwa kwa Jura mchupaji, mfanya-mauzauza Mwanzilishi Mwamba, Zebaki - mkimbiaji wa kasi ya juu na dada yake Mchawi Mwekundu. Undugu ulitwaa taifa dogo katika Amerika Kusini baada ya saa chache tu, kwa hivyo, Xavier na Watu-X walikwenda huko na kupigana na kundi hilo. Hata hivyo, walikuwa na matata, kwa sababu hawakuzoea nguvu za wapinzani wao. Mwishowe Undugu ulifukuzwa, lakini uliacha mabomu machache nyuma. Halafu, Xavier akajitupa mbele ya mlipuko, na kwa hivyo, akapotea telepathia yake. Chombo cha pili kilikuwa bomu la nyuklia lililowekwa kuangamiza nchi nzima, lakini Zebaki alilichangua kabla ya kuondoka. Kwa kweli, Zebaki na Mchawi Mwekundu siyo waovu, bali hutumikia Magneto kwa ajili ya deni. Magneto alimwokoa Mchawi Mwekundu kutoka kwa kundi la watu wenye hasira baada ya yeye kuteketeza kihenge katika kijiji chake cha kuzaliwa.

The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants is introduced. Magneto brought together a team consisting of the hopping Toad, the illusionist Mastermind, Quicksilver the high-speed runner and his sister the Scarlet Witch. The Brotherhood took over a small nation in South America after only a few hours, therefore, Xavier and the X-Men went there to fight the group. However, they had problems, because they were not familiar with their opponents' powers. In the end, the Brotherhood was driven off, but left some bombs behind. Then, Xavier threw himself in front of the explosion, and thus, lost his telepathy. The second device was a nuclear bomb that was set to destroy the whole country, but Quicksilver disarmed it before leaving. Actually, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch are not evil, but serve Magneto on account of a debt. Magneto rescued Scarlet Witch from an angry mob after she burned down a barn in her native village.

Xavier akataka kufuta akili yake ili mahali pa jumba lao pabaki siri, lakini Bonge. Hata hivyo, baadaye akatoroka tu na kurudi pamoja na wafanyakazi wote wa kanivali na kuishambulia shule.

Vichimbakazi (Fairies)

Kichimbakazi (Fairy)
Vichimbakazi (Fairies)

Kichimbakazi ni aina ya kizimwi cha kihekaya kutoka Ulimwengu Mwingine, ambacho kwa kawaida huelezwa kama kilicho cha kimetafizikia au kisicho cha dunia hii. Vichimbakazi kwa kawaida huelezwa kama binadamu vinavyoonyeshwa, lakini vina mabawa kama ya wadudu na huwa na nguvu za kichawi. Vichimbakazi vingi ni vidogo sana, vingine vidogo mno hata havionekani kwa jicho tupu, lakini baada ya karne kadha za kuzaana na binadamu, vichimbakazi vya kisasa vimekua na kutoshana na binadamu wa kawaida. Wataalamu wa mila za jadi ya mataifa ya Kiseltiki wamependekeza kuwa asili yao halisi ni katika jamii iliyoshindwa na iliyopelekwa mafichoni kwa kuwashambulia binadamu. Njia chache za kujilinda dhidi ya vichimbakazi ni kwa kutumia mtishamba wa Mtakatifu Yohana, klova yenye majani manne, chuma baridi (ambayo ni kama sumu kwao na huwa hawakaribii) au kuvaa nguo ndani nje.

A fairy is a type of legendary sprite from the Other World, who is generally described as metaphysical or supernatural. Fairies generally are described as human in appearance, but they have insectoid wings and have magical powers. Many fairies are very small, some are too some to even be seen with the naked eye, but after centuries of breeding with humans, modern fairies have grown to full human size. Folklorists of Celtic nations have proposed that their actual origin lies in a conquered race driven into hiding for attacking humans. A few ways of protecting oneself against fairies are by using St. John's wort, four-leaf clover, a cold iron (which is like poison to them and they will not go near it) or by wearing clothing inside out.

Inkubasi (Incubi)

Inkyubasi (Incubus / Incubi) 

Inkubasi, pia huitwa Jinamizi, ni shetani dume ambaye, kulingana na desturi kadha za kimitholojia na kihekaya, hulala juu ya wachapa-usingizi, hasa wanawake ili kuwabaka. Ni mwenzi wa kiume wa shetani anayejulikana zaidi aitwaye sukubu. Ingawa hadithi nyingi hueleza kuwa inkubasi ni mpenda-jinsiambili, nyingine hudokeza kuwa ni mheterojinsia na huona kumshambulia mhasiriwa wa kiume kuwa kwa kutopendeza au kudhuru. Desturi za dini hushikilia kuwa ngono ya kurudiwa na inkubasi au sukubu yaweza kusababisha upunguzi wa afya au hata kifo. Mojawapo ya matajo ya mwanzo ya inkubasi inatoka Mesopotomia katika Orodha ya Mfalme Msumeria karibu 2400 kabla ya Kristo, ambapo babake Gilgameshi anaorodheshwa kama inkubasi, aliyekuwa na uhusiano wa kimapenzi na wanawake usingizini (ili kuzaa mtoto).

An incubus, also called a Nightmare, is a male demon who, according to several mythological and legendary traditions, lies upon sleepers, especially women in order to rape them and bring them nightmares. It is the male counterpart of the more known demon called the succubus. Although many tales claim that the incubus is bisexual, others suggest that it is heterosexual and finds attacking a male victim to be unpleasant or harmful. Religious traditions hold that repeated sex with an incubus or succubus can cause a reduction of health or even death. One of the earliest mentions of an incubus comes from Mesopotamia in the Sumerian King List circa 2400 BC, where Gilgamesh's father is listed as an incubus, who had sexual relations with women in their sleep (in order to father a child).

Sukubasi (Succubi)

Sukubasi (Succubus / Succubi)

Sukubasi ni shetani jike ambalo hutokea kwa ndoto na huwa na umbo la mwanamke mrembo kijana ili aweze kutongoza wanaume, kwa kawaida kwa kufanya ngono nao; hata hivyo, umbo lake la kweli hudhihirisha ulemavu, kama vile: kucha zinazofanana na za ndege, pembe za kishetani au mkia wa joka. Neno hili linatokana na Kilatini cha Karibuni succubae “malaya” (kutoka succubare “kulala chini ya”).  Neno hili lilithibitishwa kwanza mwaka 1387. Kulingana na mafundisho ya Zohar, Lilithi alikuwa mke wa kwanza wa Adamu ambaye baadaye alikuwa sukubasi. Alimwacha Adamu na akakataa kurudi Bustani ya Edeni baada ya kujamiiana na malaika mkuu Samaeli. Inasemekana hilo tendo la kumwingilia sukubasi linafanana na kuingia pango la barafu. Pia kuna ripoti kwamba sukubasi wamewalazimisha wanaume warambe kuma yao ambayo hutiririka mkojo na giligili nyingine za kuchukiza. Sukubasi hivi karibuni wamekuwa maarufu katika utamaduni pendwa kwa juhudi za wahusika Morigani na Lilithi Aensland kutoka Wanyapaji wa Giza ambao pia ni sukubasi.

A succubus is a female demon that appears in dreams and has the shape of beautiful young woman so she may seduce men, usually through sexual intercourse; however, her true form reveals deformities, such as: bird-like claws, demonic horns or a serpentine tail. The word is derived from Late Latin succubae "strumpet" (from succubare "to lie under"). The word was first established in 1387. According to Zohar teachings, Lilith was Adam's first wife who later became a succubus. She left Adam and refused to return to the Garden of Eden after mating with the archangel Samael. It is said that the act of penetrating a succubus is similar to entering a cave of ice. There are also reports that succubi have forced men to lick their vaginas that drip with urine and other disgusting fluids. Succubi have recently become famous in pop culture thanks to Morrigan and Lilith Aensland from the Darkstalkers who are also succubi.

Dhampiri (Dhampirs)

Dhampiri (Dhampir / Dhampirs) 
Dhampiri, au nusu-mnyonyadamu, katika hadithi za Balkani ni mtoto wa mnyonyadamu na binadamu. Nguvu za dhampiri ni sawa na zile za wanyonyadamu, lakini bila udhaifu wa kawaida. Dhampiri wengi hudharau upande wa giza wa urithi wao na huwa wawinda-wanyonyadamu, na wanadhaniwa kuwa stadi katika kugundua na kuua wanyonyadamu. Neno la dhampiri linaaminika kutokana na neno la Kialbania dham “meno” na pirë “kunywa”. Wanyonyadamu huwa na ashiki kubwa kwa wanawake, hivyo aliyegeuzwa kuwa mnyonyadamu hivi karibuni atarudi kujamiiana na mkewe au mwanamke aliyempendeza katika maisha yake, na wanyonyadamu Wabulgaria hasa huwa na tamaa ya kubikiri mabikira.

A dhampir, or half-vampire, in Balkan tales is the child of a vampire and a human. Dhampir powers are similar to those of vampires, but without the usual weaknesses. Many dhampirs despise the dark side of their heritage and become vampire hunters, and are believed to be skilled in detecting and killing vampires. The word dhampir is believed to derive from the Albanian word dham "teeth" and pirë "to drink". Vampires have a desire for women, so one who was changed into a vampire recently will return to have intercourse with his wife or the woman who was attractive to him in his life, and Bulgarian vampires especially passion to deflower virgins.
