# Trevor Fitzroy

Trevor Fitzroy is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character is usually depicted as an enemy of the X-Men, in particular Bishop. Created by Jim Lee and Whilce Portacio, he first appeared in The Uncanny X-Men #281 (October 1991).
Fitzroy hails from the same dystopian future as Bishop. A mutant criminal, he possesses the ability to absorb energy from human beings and use that energy to open time portals, which is how Bishop traveled to the present. He has since been featured as the main adversary in the series featuring Bishop.

## Fictional character biography
### The future

Trevor Fitzroy was revealed to be the illegitimate son of Anthony Shaw, the future Black King of the Hellfire Club, in a dystopian future. He joined the Academy for Xavier's Security Enforcers (XSE) and had a romantic relationship with Shard. However, Fitzroy's criminal tendencies surfaced, resulting in his expulsion from the academy. Initially, his influential father attempted to shield him, but when Fitzroy was apprehended for murder, his father could no longer protect him. Bishop (Shard's brother and an XSE officer) captured and arrested Fitzroy.
Initially, Fitzroy believed that he possessed the ability to teleport. However, a clandestine faction of XSE agents called the Xavier's Underground Enforcers (XUE) uncovered his true power of time travel. The XUE recruited Shard and orchestrated Fitzroy's release, intending to exploit his temporal abilities to alter the past and create a better future. However, Shard, recognizing Fitzroy's inherent danger, intervened and thwarted their plan, resulting in Fitzroy's return to prison.

### The Upstarts

From prison, Fitzroy escaped to the present time with his mutant minion Bantam. There, he became involved with a group known as the Upstarts, a competition set up by Selene to eliminate her rivals in the Hellfire Club. Led by the Gamesmaster, the upstarts had to kill other mutants to receive points. The Upstart with the most points would win the prize: control over the Hellfire Club and the other competitors. To enter the competition, one had to kill a member of the Hellfire Club's Inner Circle (though later members did not have to). As part of this "game," Fitzroy unleashed Sentinels on the Reavers and their leader, Donald Pierce. All were killed except Pierce, who escaped and arrived at the Hellfire Club, followed by the Sentinels. The Sentinels killed Pierce (later rebuilt) and then killed most of the Hellions, rendering their leader Emma Frost comatose. The X-Men, who had been negotiating with Frost, fought Fitzroy. Fitzroy was forced to open a large time portal, allowing prisoners from his own time to escape to the present. The prisoners attacked the X-Men but stopped when three figures stepped through the portal: Bishop and XSE agents Randall and Malcolm. They went after Fitzroy, eventually killing the escaped criminals. However, Malcolm and Randall were killed, and Bishop remained in the present, joining the X-Men.
Fitzroy turned on Selene and captured her, though she later managed to escape. He also brought in Siena Blaze to compete in the Upstart competition. Fitzroy clashed with the X-Men a second time when he tried to kill Forge but managed to escape again. When the Gamesmaster declared that the new target for the Upstart competition would be former members of the New Mutants and Hellions, Fitzroy attacked X-Force, demanding they turn over Rictor and Warpath. In the ensuing confrontation, X-Force leader Cable tricked Fitzroy by disguising his techno-organic arm as wholly organic; when Fitzroy tried to absorb his life energy through the arm, his powers backfired and instead he used his own life energy to open a portal, seemingly killing him.

### After the Upstarts

How he survived is left unknown, but Fitzroy eventually reappeared under the thrall of Selene as the White Rook of the Hellfire Club. During this time, he cooperates with Pierce and Shaw, despite his previous attempts to kill them. He leaves the club and travels back to an alternate future (Earth-9910), now calling himself the Chronomancer. He takes control of the new timeline, but Bishop arrives and fights Fitzroy, eventually killing him.

### X-Factor

A younger, benevolent version of Fitzroy appears as a participant in the Summers Rebellion. After Cortex kills him during a fight, Layla Miller resurrects him physically but is unable to revive him with a soul, establishing the point at which he becomes a villain.

### Return of the Upstarts

Under unknown circumstances, Fitzroy reappeared alive and rejoins the Upstarts. He helped kill the Nasty Boys in order to lure out Cyclops and his ragtag team of X-Men to Washington Heights. After a brief moment of silence, the two groups engaged each other in battle. Fitzroy started to drain the life energies from Multiple Man's dupes but was caught off guard by Havok, who fired a concussive blast at Fitzroy, which knocked him off balance. Soon enough, he became overwhelmed as they were outnumbered. Fitzroy fled the scene with Fabian Cortez and Siena Blaze, leaving Shinobi behind as a scapegoat. It was later mentioned that Fitzroy was later detained and killed by O*N*E.
In X-Men (vol. 7), Fitzroy resurfaces and begins killing mutants, which he live-streams on social media.

## Powers and abilities

Fitzroy possesses the mutant ability to drain the life force of living beings through physical contact. With these energies, Fitzroy can create portals that can teleport those passing through them across time and space, yet the portals are one way; trying to pass through the wrong way results in the traveler's body being fatally transformed. He was often dependent on the mutant Bantam to direct and catalog his portals.
Fitzroy can also use the converted life force he drains to infuse on the dead, which essentially resurrects them; however, due to his nature, this is an ability he rarely uses.
In early appearances, Fitzroy wore futuristic battle armor that increased his strength. This battle armor was destroyed by the X-Men, and a second suit of armor was destroyed by the X-Force.
Fitzroy also had several Sentinels that obeyed his commands. These Sentinels were smaller than the 20th-century type but could repair themselves using material in their vicinity.
