Scott Summers is the one the others all look up to, especially since he was Xavier's original recruit. Scott is confident and good-natured, although some people might get the idea that he's a little aloof (it's the dark-glasses thing). Scott is good at sports, and especially excels at basketball and soccer. He is originally from St. Louis, and has that standard American non-accent. Scott is an orphan, and was separated from his brother (Alex Masters - Havok) at an early age. Add to that these crazy eye beams that he can't control, and you can see that his life hasn't handed him the best hand.

Scott has "eye problems," for which he is always wearing red shades. Scott Summers is Cyclops, a mutant whose eyes project devastating force beams. These beams cannot be controlled, merely aimed, so Scott is forever in fear of unleashing their power and causing untold destruction. Having such power is a huge burden on Scott; if he just could have one wish, it would be to become a normal person with normal eyes. Sadly, such will never be the case.

As the X-Men find themselves forming into a team, big brother Scott will naturally take charge. He is a natural leader, yet a young leader. After recently graduating from Bayville High, he's become an instructor at Xavier's Institute for Gifted Children and is currently romantically involved with his long time crush Jean Grey.
