A Cheyenne mutant with the innate ability to understand and create any mechanical device. Forge is the X-Men's inventor and engineer, the man who builds the technology that keeps them alive. His relationship with Storm — complicated by the fact that he once built a device that stripped her of her powers — is one of the X-Men's most bittersweet romances.
