Shinobi Shaw: Shinobi Shaw is the leader of X-Posse, the group of mutant rebels that once belonged to Bishop's X-Men. When Shinobi was only a boy, he was left in the care of Bishop and the mutant telepath named Tessa. Shinobi remain with the X-Men until he, and his team, chose to strike out on their own, leaving for San Francisco.

Tessa: The mind behind the team, Tessa is the advisor of X-Posse, and co-leads the team with Shinobi. After Sebastian Shaw died at the hands of Black Air, she had taken it upon herself to become Shinobi's advisor, to keep him from making the same mistakes his father made. She is a low-level telepath, and a former member of Sebastian's Inner Circle. |

 |
Wildchild: Wildchild is the fiercely loyal bodyguard of Shinobi, and follows his "master" everywhere. Formerly known as Kyle Gibney, Wildchild has let himself succumb to his feral nature and is now no more than a savage beast.

 |
Siryn: The daughter of the X-Men's Banshee, Theresa has almost identical powers to that of her father. She was originally brought into the life of the X-Men, unknowing about her mutant powers. When she discovered them she was initially in shock, but soon learned to master them. She has decided to take a more pro-active stance in the battle between man and mutant, and that is what led to her joining up with Shinobi's X-Posse.

 |
Shatterstar: The enigma of the team, Shatterstar joined the ranks of X-Posse only a short while before they left for San Francisco. Not much is known about him, save that he is an expert swordsman, and has the ability to rechannel energy through his blades.
|
|
 |
Reaper: Reaper is the wildcard of the team. He takes an almost perverse pleasure in killing, and is more than willing to go to almost any lengths to achieve what he wants. In Reaper's case, the ends justify the means.
|
|
 |
Guido: Guido is one half of the team's 'Bash Brothers'. He's a fun-lovin' guy, and is always wearing a smile. His mutant powers allow him to store kinetic energy, causing the rapid growth of muscle around his body. He's the 'Strong Guy' of the team, and is always dependable in a fight.
|
|
 |
Warpath: The other half of the 'Bash Brothers', James Proudstar is the strong, silent type. His family were hunted down and killed by Selene during the height of the war between man and mutant, with only himself and his brother surviving the massacre. Both eventually broke free from the Prelate's grasp, and joined forces with Bishop and the X-Men. Now Warpath is a member of the X-Posse, making it his personal mission to hunt down those responsible for the death of his family.
|
|
 |
Rictor: The Hispanic mutant was another late addition to the team, but seems to have clicked with the rest of the crew. He has a close relationship with Guido and James, making them the 'Three Stooges' of the group. Rictor has the ability to control vibratory waves, enabling him to cause small earthquakes and avalanches.

Rusty: After losing everything he had, Rusty Collins was found by Bishop in one of the many 'Mutant Camps' of the Human Resistance Movement. Rusty became a member of Bishop's next generation of X-Men, and soon found love in the form of Meltdown. The two later joined their comrades, and left for San Francisco as a part of X-Posse.
|
|
 |
Meltdown: Tabitha Smith is another result of the Human Resistance Movement's 'Mutant Camps', where she was horribly used and abused. When the X-Men rescued her she instantly pledged herself to their cause, and soon fell in love with Rusty Collins. They have both now left the X-Men but still fight against Onslaught's evil as members of the X-Posse.
|
|
 |
Milan: Another telepath, Milan has helped bring X-Posse to the shores of San Francisco, the city which has suffered much triumphant. While his powers are of a low-level, he is seen as the spiritual centre of the group, and is always there for guidance.
