File:Juliosm.png Son of a Mexican arms dealer, Julio Richter was a relatively ordinary young man until his earthquake-creating powers made him useful as a weapon to Magneto. Used to cause a massive earthquake and tsunami in San Diego, Julio was rescued by the X-Men and brought to the mansion, where his father agreed he would be much safer. Julio blamed himself for San Diego for many years, but gradually learned to control and hone his powers, finding them occasionally useful, such as for stopping an earthquake that could have destroyed Tokyo. He had a relationship with Noriko Kikuchi, until her parents recalled her home to Japan, and eventually, after a stint as an RA, he returned to Mexico when his grandfather fell ill. He remains a largely unrealised potential, a young man with his whole life ahead of him. This character is currently unplayed, but is open for applications.
