Raven Darkholme, commonly referred to as Mystique, is a member of the mutant superhero team known as the X-Men. She was played by Rebecca Romijn in the first X-Men trilogy, and was portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence in the second trilogy, which is based several decades before the first trilogy. Rebecca also had a cameo as the character in X-Men: First Class, and, in the same film, a 10-year-old version of the character was portrayed by Morgan Lily. The character has the ability to alter her form so that she may appear as someone else, even being able to mimic their voice.

Notes & Trivia[]
- As Mystique is able to alter her form, she has no need for clothing. Matter of fact, clothing would hinder the effects of her powers, as she can only change her appearance, and not that of the clothing. In other words, she's naked more than she isn't.
- In X-Men: Apocalypse, Mystique does wear a flight suit, and when she uses her powers, she is still wearing the suit. This is because she was actually wearing the suit and is unable to change it's appearance.
- Mystique was created by David Hayter, as based on the comic character created by Chris Claremont and Jim Mooney. The version portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence was created by Simon Kinberg.
