Personality: Gambit like to carry himself with a smile at all times, ‘cept maybe when I’m playin’ poker. I like t’keep positive, if I didn’, everyone I know would always be so grumpy. Bein’ de life o’ de party is what makes Gambit tick. Dats what’s important to ol’ Gambit, seein’ everybody smile!
Affiliation: The X-Men
Identity: SECRET
Powers or Special Abilities:
Skills: Bilingual (English and Cajun French), Expert Marksmen, Master Thief, I t’ink dats about it on de skill list, non?
Advantages: Besides all of his training and powers, Gambit is incredibly charming man. Before joining the X-Men, Gambit had been a con man for a long time.
Disadvantages: Gambit’s previous affiliations and his family life made him fiercely loyal to the wrong crowd. Even today, Gambit could probably be talked into wandering back to Louisiana to help the Thieves’ Guild with all sorts of things that he shouldn’t be getting himself into.
Occupation: Hero, Thief (Semi-retired)
Citizenship: United States of America
Place of Birth: Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Relatives: De LeBeau family is a big ol’ list o’ names. All ya really need to know is I have a papa named Jean-Luc LeBeau, an’ I have an ex-wife from de Assassin’s Guild named Bella Donna Boudreaux.
History: Remy LeBeau was adopted when he was just a little boy. Trained as a pickpocket from when he was still very small, Remy was intiated into the Thieves’ Guild. As a young teen, Remy began to develop his powers, but as he was in a group of Thieves, his mutant powers were looked on as an asset over an affliction.
That’s not to say that Gambit didn’t run into problems from others because of his powers. His eyes were now black and red, subject of mocking, so Remy took to wearing sunglasses to avoid people staring and judging him. He’d evolved from a simple thief into a con man, hustling people with card tricks, defending himself with his powers when he ran into trouble.
That’s when Remy got noticed by Charles Xavier. In the summer of 2004, a tough guy with claws recruited Remy. By recruiting, what was really meant was that Remy got his ass kicked and he was forced to join by Wolverine. He ended up studying at the school and joining the black ops team called the X-Men.
Now, during the day, Remy serves as faculty at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning. Usually as an assistant teacher or as a substitute. At night, he serves on the X-Men.

Powers or Special Abilities:
- Molecular Acceleration: Remy has the power to take the potential energy stored in an object and convert it to kinetic energy thus “charging” that item with explosive results.
- Enhanced Agility: Gambit's ability to tap energy also grants him superhuman agility and dexterity which gives him an added edge he has used to his advantage by developing a unique acrobatic fighting style.
- Static Interference: Ability to create static, because of the charged potential energy always in his body, that shields his mind from detection and intrusion by even the most powerful telepaths. The shield has the added effect of destabilizing touch based powers.
- Hypnotic Charm: Ability to "charge" the kinetic energy within a person's brain, allowing a subtle influence over any sentient mind. This power allows Gambit to compel others to believe what he says and agree with anything he suggests. More powerful minds have proven immune to Gambit's charm.
