White Phoenix Of The Crown

Occupation: Cosmic Entity.

Jean Grey is a mutant and X-man born with telepathic and telekinetic powers. Her powers first manifested when she saw her childhood friend being hit by a car. She is a caring, nurturing figure, but she also has to deal with being an Omega-level mutant and the physical manifestation of the cosmic Phoenix Force. She has faced death numerous times in the history of the series, the first being when, in her guise as Marvel Girl, she died and was "reborn" as Phoenix, which in time led to her second - though not last - death in the classic "Dark Phoenix Saga. Though Jean has died and came back many times in Phoenix Endsong she tells everyone that she not just a host of Phoenix but that she is Phoenix and Phoenix is her and together they became The White Phoenix Of The Crown. she went to the White Hot Room to find the missing fragments of Phoenix and was not seen again and was believed to be dead by everyone on earth. In Avengers vs X-Men round 12 she came to Cyclops to help him get rid of Phoenix.

Jean Grey as the Phoenix

Avengers vs X-men[]

Although she does not appear, her Phoenix Force comes back to Earth looking for a host similar to Jean. She has also been mentioned a few times.In the 6th issue of Avengers vs X-men Cyclops is thinking about Jean, her death and how could she control her telepathy from such a young age. He takes a trip to the Blue area of the Moon to the place where Jean had been killed when she was the Dark Phoenix for first time by an ancient Shiar weapon which she activated.

Dark Phoenix Jean

Scott used his supreme and new found Phoenix powers and from the ashes of the moon he created a clone of Jean. In the final issue of Avengers vs X-men Jean briefly appears to the Dark Phoenix Cyclops from the White Hot Room and tells him that all it's all going to be ok and it is time to let the Phoenix go. With this the Phoenix Force leaves Cyclops and enters Hope Summers and then Hope becomes the White Phoenix and restores the World from the damage that Cyclops had done. Though the force was out and about without Jean in AvX. It is still possible that both Jean and Phoenix are still alive because if Phoenix was really killed then life in the universe would have died as stated by Roma. Jean and Phoenix are probably together in the white hot room where they still continue to find their fragments after the events of Phoenix Endsong.

Powers and Abilities[]

Jean Grey

Jean Grey of the X-men

Jean Grey-Summers is an Omega-level mutant, and has been one of the physical hosts of the vastly powerful Phoenix Force who possesses god-like powers and is one of the most feared beings that ever lived. With the Phoenix Force, Jean has potentially limitless psionic powers of telepathy, telekinesis, cosmic pyrokinesis and energy manipulation - Henry McCoy has said that, based on her massive power levels, "on the Richter scale, she'd be a 12". When bonded to the Phoenix, she is said to outclass mutants, granting her complete control over matter, energy, thought, and unlimited psionic energies. She can tap into reserved energies for future generations, denying them of existence.

Empathy[]

On many occasions, Jean has shown to have incredibly strong empathic powers that enable her to control, manipulate and alter the feelings, sensations, and emotions of others. It is because of her empathic abilities that the almighty Phoenix Force had chosen her as its rightful human host. In other versions, she had not been shown possessing any types of empathic abilities except for telekinesis and telepathy.

Telepathy[]

Jean is considered to be one of the Earth's most powerful telepathic minds. Jean is able to read thoughts, project and broadcast her own thoughts, as well as affect the minds of humans and animals with higher order intelligence (such as dolphins, ravens or dogs). The range at which she can perform these feats is greatly increased while she is accessing the Phoenix Force. After her absorption of Psylocke's specialized telepathy, Jean's own telepathic skill and power was increased to a level at which she could create psionic firebirds capable of inflicting mental and physical damage. due tu her telepathic abilities, she remembers everything.However this enhanced telepathy came at the temporary cost of her telekinesis. She has demonstrated the following specialized uses:

  • Telepathic Defense: She can manifest her telepathy in a number of defensive ways.
  • Telepathic Cloak: She can mask her presence and the use of her abilities from being detected by other psions and psychic entities. She can extend these defenses to others around her as well. Cloaking via telepathy is not perfect and powerful psis may notice and 'see' through this ability.
  • Cloak Mind: Ability to rearrange the “mental engrams” of mutants so their distinctive mutant thought patterns cannot be detected by Cerebro-type devises or by other telepaths.
  • Psychic Shield: Ability to erect a psychic shield for protection of herself and the minds of others.
  • Telepathic Illusions: She can create realistic telepathic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring.
  • Telepathic Camouflage: She can alter the apparent physical appearance of herself and other people by altering the perceptions of those around her. This can go so far as to make other people believe that the camouflaged people are not there (invisible). A limit, if one exists, is only imposed by the number of people she is trying to fool, not the number of people she is camouflaging.
  • Telepathic Manipulation: She can manipulate other people's minds easily, achieving a variety of effects.
  • Memory alteration:She can erase, implant, restore or alter the memory of others.
  • Mind Control: She can control the thoughts and actions of others.
  • Mind Possession: She can possess the mind of another, and use that being's body as her own.
  • Personality Alteration: She can alter the minds of others by force of will, thus permanently changing their personality partially or entirely.
  • Mental Paralysis: She can induce temporary mental or physical paralysis.
  • Mental Amnesia: She can erase any awareness of particular memories or cause total amnesia.
  • Mind Transferral: She can transfer both her mind and powers into other host bodies if her own physical body was somehow killed.
  • Heal Trauma: She has the ability to erase a person’s memories and to heal mental trauma through “psychic surgery,” as well as the power to stimulate or deaden the pain and pleasure centers in a person's brain.
  • Mental Sedating: Can telepathically "sedate" her victims so that, if already rendered unconscious, they remain so for as long as she continues to "sedate" them.
  • Neural Jumpstart: She can increase the speed of neural signals in the brain, which could increase another mutant's powers to incredible levels, but the effect was only temporary.
  • Dilate Power: Ability to place “psychic inhibitors” in the minds of mutant adversaries to prevent them from using their powers.
  • Mind Link: Ability to develop a mental link with any person, which remains as a connection to that individual.
  • Psychic Blast: She can project psychic force bolts which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind, causing them pain, knocking them unconsciousness or turning the victim "brain-dead".
  • Astral Projection: She can project her astral form from her body onto the Astral Plane or the physical plane. In the physical plane she can travel in astral form over vast distances. In the astral plane, she can mentally create psionic objects and manipulate the aspects of her environment. She can communicate with others astrally through her own will, or through contact with the thoughts and memories of others.
  • Mental Detection: She can sense the presence of another superhuman mutant within a small but as yet undefined radius of herself by perceiving the distinctive mental radiations emitted by such a being.

Telekinesis[]

Telekinetic Jean Grey

Jean using Telekinesis

Projection of psychokinetic energy enables her to levitate objects, propel or manipulate them however she wishes, lift herself and move through the air to simulate flight, stimulate individual molecules to create heat, generate concussive force as blasts or bursts, and create protective shields. While she has access to the Phoenix Force, she is able to manipulate matter and energy on a sub-atomic scale using her telekinesis. She can even change her Phoenix clothes into a set of street clothes, and lift multiple heavy objects at once without having any difficulties.

  • Psychic Firebird: She can manifest her telekinesis as a psychic firebird, whose claws could inflict both physical and mental damage
  • Force Field: She can create a telekinetic field to either shield her and her teammates or use it to lift multiple heavy objects at her enemy or trap them in to a telekinetic bubble.

Phoenix Force[]

JeanGrey442

Dark Phoenix

As jean has become one with the Phoenix Force she possesses all the phoenix abilities and total control over it.

  • Interstellar Travel: A Phoenix Force avatar can levitate and fly unaided through the vacuum of space, and can travel interstellar distances faster than the speed of light.
  • Concussive Force Blasts: She can project multiple forms of energy and,use it to energy to project beams of immense concussive force powerful enough to destroy whole planetary bodies.
  • Energy Absorption: She can directly absorb, manipulate, and fully control any type of energy such as Cyclops' ruby-red-colored optic blasts or the entire energy of a star, black hole, or even a whole galaxy.J​ean, as the "One-True Phoenix", was shown to be able to activate and deactivate the mutations of other's with just the use of her psychic abilities.
  • Life-Force Control: As the Phoenix Force avatar, she can fully control and manipulate life and death itself.
  • Matter Transmutation: She can manipulate and transmute matter on a sub-atomic level (e.g., turning wood to gold, stone to crystal, etc).
  • Telekinetic Sensitivity: This allows her to feel the texture ob a objects, she has on a telekinetic hold on,feel when others objects come in contact with them  and probe them on a molecular level  to identify if they contain alien materials or feel  when two things which she has a telekinetic 'hold on'  upon are similarly composed.
  • Cosmic Teleportation: She can teleport herself others across vast distances such as another planet or galaxy, and the vast vacuum of space itself.
  • Disintegration Waves: She can consume and remove a near infinite amount of molecules per second.
  • Resurrection Force:'She can resurrect anyone it wishes with its near infinite powers, as it is the embodiment of life and death itself.
  • Immortality: Jean and the Phoenix Force are one-and-the-same entity at some fundamental level,and as such Jean can never truly die and as a Phoenix Force avatar she does not age.
  • Cosmic Pyrokinesis: She can create 'cosmic' flames under any conditions even the impossible ones such as vacuum space or underwater. These flames do not require oxygen to burn, and burn so intensely that matter is consumed without by-products such as ash. It has perfect control over these flames, and they only consume what she wills. Typically they manifest as a raptor or part of a raptor such as a claw or wings, in the case of an avatar. It is unclear whether these flames are an extension of she's powerful psionic abilities or a literal punctuation to its purpose to 'burn away what doesn't work' and 'burning through lies'.
  • Temporal Manipulation: As Jean and the Phoenix Force are one and the same entity she can manipulate the past, present, and future across large temporal distances and with a profound knowledge of the causal effect her actions will have as well as see through time. It may be the case that time as a concept doesn't apply to the White Hot Room. it has only been shown When Jean Grey as the White Phoenix Of The Crown held her universe in the palm of her hands and saved it from becoming a horrible future.
  • Existence Mastery: She possesses total control over the entire existence.She can warp reality, bring anything into existence, freely manipulate all existing things, and return them to nothingness when their purpose is extinguished.
