Remy LeBeau, better known as the charming thief Gambit, is a mutant with the ability to charge inanimate objects with energy that results in massive explosions, usually deploying playing cards as portable bombing devices.[14] Raised by the Thieves Guild,[15] Gambit's dark path led him to become a secret agent for the vile Mister Sinister.[16] After befriending fellow mutant thief Storm, he was invited to join the X-Men, and had the opportunity to redeem himself.[17]
Although the roguish and secretive Gambit often disagreed with the X-Men's sense of morality, his soft spot for abandoned kids caused him to integrate well into the team while getting close to many of its members, especially Rogue whom he developed a complicated romance with.[18][19] Upon learning of his past association with Mister Sinister, the X-Men rejected his membership,[16] though he was eventually pardoned and made it back to the team.[20] Ever restless, Gambit has come and gone many times since, most notably leaving the X-Men for a time after becoming a Horseman of Apocalypse[21] and a Marauder.[22] Eventually, with his cunning skills, Gambit rose to the position of world-leader of the Thieves Guild.[23]
After getting married to Rogue,[24] Gambit has accompanied her in many adventures.[25] Together, they revived the X-Men in a world in need of integration between humans and mutants. For that purpose, they established a sanctuary in the bayou area of Louisiana in order to offer asylum to young mutants in need of shelter and guiding.[26]
