X-Men Evil Mutants

The most likely enemies of the X-Men. These are mutants who are opposed to the X-Men's Dream, or who have their own reasons to dislike humanity. These are terrorists, or simply criminals who don't care what their actions do for mutant rights. Not all of these are mutants, however, but they are often mistaken for mutants.

Mutant Antagonists

One of the most persistent threats to the Dream of Charles Xavier is so-called 'Evil Mutants'. Not only do they not share in his vision for a peaceful coexistence, but many of them either don't care, or oppose it. What's worse, is that for every mutant who is fighting for money, or even fighting for their own goals, it is incredibly easy for the media, or anti-mutant propagandists, to turn it around under a blanket 'Evil Mutants' term, further adding to their rationale for stricter mutant control method, or even Sentinels. To those people, a mutant bank robber, or a mutant hitman, or a mutant serial killer, is the same as a Magneto or an Apocalypse, and just an easy way to push further for Proposition X or the Mutant Registration Act, or funding that will eventually lead to Nimrod.
The X-Men have to act against their own people, for the sake of people who hate and fear them, for the sake of the greater good.

The Brotherhood of Mutants

Early in his war against humanity, Magneto organized a small band of mutants to go into combat at his side. Since the world had branded him a criminal, Magneto defiantly named his team of accomplices " The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants." The most subservient of the group was Toad, named both for his grotesque appearance and his superhuman leaping ability. There was also Mastermind, who could mentally create utterly convincing illusions. Lastly , there was Quicksilver, who could move at superhuman speed, and his sister, the Scarlet Witch, who could alter probability at will. Neither Magneto nor the two siblings knew at the time that he was actually their father by his estranged wife Magda.
Subsequently, the mutant terrorist Mystique formed her own Brotherhood. Mystique's team included her close friend Destiny, a blind mutant who could foretell the future; Rogue, her adopted daughter who could absorb the powers of those she touched; Avalanche, Pyro, and the Blob.
Later on, several mutant super-villains attempted to create their own versions of the team. Notable incarnations include Toad's Brotherhood, comprised of Blob, Pyro and Sauron; Xorn's Brotherhood, which incorporated Beak, Angel Salvatore, Basilisk, Ernst, and No-Girl, all of them students from the Xavier Institute's Special Class whom defected Xorn after he accidentally killed Basilisk; and Exodus's Brotherhood, which featured Black Tom Cassidy, Mammomax, Avalanche, Sabretooth and the moles Juggernaut and Nocturne.

The Resistants

The Resistants were first known as the New Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and led by Magneto. Magneto would abandon the group and the band of mutants consisting of Lifter, Burner, Shocker, Peepers and Slither would become Mutant Force. As Mutant Force, they would serve Professor Power, Mandrill and the Secret Empire on several occasions and often come into conflict with the Defenders. All original members of Mutant Force except Slither would reform to become the Resistants.

The Apocalypse

The four horseman are Apocalypse's personal warriors and always play a key role in his plans for mutant conquest and domination. The enhancements made to horseman are often a combination of both biological or genetic manipulation and the employment of the celestial technology that Apocalypse uses.
The use of the four horseman specifically is largely symbolic, and their powers are often either directly or closely related to their namesake. When mutants (or in some cases humans) that are to become horseman are chosen that do not have desired powers, Apocalypse will augment their powers to more closely resemble their role or give them new powers entirely. Regardless, the powers and abilities of a horseman are generally augmented or enhanced to serve Apocalypse's purposes.
Apocalypse is also known to brainwash reluctant horseman to become more obedient soldiers. Several horseman have been able to overcome Apocalypse's programming by sheer force of will. While brainwashing can be overcome, the transformation process can still be psychologically damaging and can haunt former horseman long after leaving Apocalypse's servitude.

Alliance of Evil

Soon after X-Factor appeared to the general public as a group of humans who hunted mutants, they came across a team of villainous mutants. They first encountered Tower, who had tried to kidnap Beast. Later, X-Factor encountered the rest of the Alliance of Evil and their dangerous leader, Apocalypse.

Dark Riders

The Dark Riders were a group of mutants, mainly Inhumans, who were Apocalypse's foot soldiers who strongly viewed his "survival of the fittest" ways. When Apocalypse traveled to the Moon and conquered the city of Attilan, he enslaved six Inhumans: Gauntlet, HardDrive, Tusk, Foxbat, Psynapse and Barrage. They became the Riders of the Storm, named after Apocalypse's earliest army. Apocalypse sent them to Earth to battle his enemies, kidnap Cyclops' son and infect the infant with a version of the transmode virus. X-Factor made it to the moon, where Attilan was then located, and joined with the royal family of the Inhumans in their battle against Apocalypse. Apocalypse was defeated, seemingly killed, and the enslaved Inhumans were freed, but young Nathan was sent into the future with Askani to save him from the virus ravaging his body. The Riders of the Storm remained loyal to Apocalypse, and took his body back to Earth to regenerate in his base.

Hellfire Club

The Hellfire Club is a centuries old organization with roots in Britain during the 18th Century. It's members were infamous rakes who used their connections within the club to further boost their social standing and to indulge their sexual excesses.
Over time the club has evolved to include high-flying business men and women, as well as the profitable descendants of royalty and other Hellfire Club members. Being a member of the Hellfire Club is an illustrious boost among elite society. However, there is an even more esoteric sect of individuals who run the Hellfire Club, known as the Inner Circle.
The Club is run by a small group of influential members who form the infamous Inner Circle. Named after chess pieces, members of the Inner Circle will take on the titles of the Black and White (and later also Red) Kings, Queens, Bishops, and Rooks. The final position of Lord Imperial is reserved for the most powerful member of the club. Additionally, prominent members have also had assistants that did not have official titles within the club.

Bar Sinister

What began as an attempt to seek assistance within his research, Mister Sinister would first recruit John Greycrow after learning of his violent military history of scalping his fellow soldiers and surviving an execution because of his mutant nature. Mister Sinister would also force another mutant known as Gambit into his services after helping him control his powers by removing certain brain tissue. With two assistants under his command, Mister Sinister would have use of them when learning of research being co-opted by the Earth-295 version of Beast, also known as Dark Beast. Learning that his experiments resulted with the creation of several mutants who later took up refuge as Morlocks, Mister Sinister decided to have this corrupted version of his work annihilated and instructed Gambit to assemble a team of mutants who would secretly act out as assassins. Recruited various mutants who share an interest for bloodshed and murder, Gambit would take the first steps of assembling and leading the greatest mistake that would secretly hound for the rest of his life.

Nasty Boys

Self-proclaimed "Nasty Boy" Slab faced X-Factor member Strong Guy before the team fully appeared. The full team battled X-Factor in the next issue seemingly lead by U.S. Senator Steven Shaffran. Shaffran was, in fact, a disguised Mister Sinister who had taken the Senator's form in order to publicly discredit him as a mutant terrorist. While Sinister's reasons for doing this remain somewhat mysterious (as do most of his actions), it was probably because Shaffran was attempting to use his ricochet probability powers. Recently, Nasty Boys member Ruckus appeared at a meeting for Senator Kelly.

Upstarts

The Young, The Rich, The Powerful and the elite! The Upstarts would enter a game of death and deception to gain power. Though Selene founded them, it would be the Gamesmaster who would call the shots. The Upstarts are a group of Mutants (and one human) who were vying for leadership of their own group and were given points for assassinating mutant figures. The Upstarts included: Shinobi Shaw, Siena Blaze, Fabian Cortez, Graydon Creed, Trevor Fitzroy and the Fenris Twins, Andrea Strucker and Andreas Strucker. The Upstarts were responsible for most of the death's of the original Hellions and the apparent deaths of Magneto and Sebastian Shaw.
