Remy LeBeau

Remy LeBeau, better known as the charming thief Gambit, is a mutant with the ability to charge inanimate objects and cause them to explode. Raised by the Thieves Guild, Gambit's dark path led him to become a secret agent for the vile Mister Sinister. After befriending fellow mutant thief Storm, he was invited to join the X-Men, and had the opportunity to redeem himself. Although the roguish and secretive Gambit often disagreed with the X-Men's sense of morality, his soft spot for abandoned kids caused him to integrate well into the team while getting close to many of its members. Upon learning of his past association with Sinister, the X-Men rejected his membership, though he eventually made it back to the team. Ever restless, Gambit has come and gone many times since, most notably leaving the X-Men for a time.
