While there, Lorna and Alex were attacked by henchmen of The Living Pharaoh and Lorna attempted to contact the X-Men, but received no answer and contacted Beast in the Avengers. Xavier freed Lorna and Alex from Shakari's control and they stayed on Muir Island for their recovery. Polaris was defeated by Storm, but Shakari managed to escape with both her and Alex. A massive battle ensued at Kennedy International Airport, with the duo battling the X-Men. Shakari kidnapped Alex and Lorna and subjected them to a powerful form of mind control: they were turned against the X-Men and attempted to assassinate Prof. At the time, Shakari served D'Ken Neramani, the emperor of the Shi'ar Galaxy, later deposed in favor of his sister, Lilandra Neramani.

It was he who gave Lorna the code name Polaris. Lorna received her Shi'ar designed costume when her mind came under the domination of the Shi'ar Intelligence agent, Davan Shakari, also known as Erik the Red. Following the X-Men's battle against the island Krakoa, Lorna and Alex left the X-Men to pursue their mutual interest in geophysics, attending graduate school in Nevada. Xavier actually altered the minds of everyone to cover-up the fact that his second team of X-Men were all slaughtered attempting to save them. When the old and new X-Men together fought the island Krakoa, it seemed Lorna displayed her major power potential for the first time as she disrupted the Earth's magnetic field, flinging Krakoa into deep space. After Number One landed the saucer on the White House lawn and defeated Moonstone, the Secret Empire was defeated by Cyclops, Captain America, the Falcon, and Marvel Girl. Later, the X-Men and a number of mutants were kidnapped, by the Secret Empire, to harness their energy to power an "Electorn-Gyro". They were, later, targeted by the Promise, and met the Hulk. When Lorna first encountered the real Magneto in the Savage Land, she was surprised that he did not know who she was.
Even though she quickly dropped the name, Havok continued to use it as a way to annoy and flirt with her. Later with the X-Men, they met Ka-Zar in the Savage Land, where Lorna invented her first "code name" Magnetrix. They both served for a time as active X-Men and helped Professor X repel an invasion by the alien Z'nox. Lorna did, however, fall in love with her teammate Havok, the brother of Cyclops. For a while, Iceman had a crush on her, but Lorna didn't truly reciprocate the feelings. In the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, the X-Men were tutored by Professor Charles Xavier and trained in the use of their powers in the Danger Room. Lorna returned home with the X-Men and, eventually, joined the team.
#THE GIFTED POLARIS ANDROID#
Iceman, however, managed to reach her and present "evidence" that convinced Lorna that her true parents had died in a plane crash years earlier, making her turn against Magneto, who was revealed to be an android double. He then convinced Lorna that she was the daughter of Magneto (unaware that this was in fact the truth), cohercing her to work with him and her supposed father against the X-Men. Lorna's magnetic powers emerged when she was controlled by Mesmero and subjected to a 'mutant energy stimulator' device. When Lorna was nearly 20 years old, she met Iceman after being identified as a mutant by Cerebro. Lorna was raised by Arnold's sister and her husband, and grew up thinking that they were her real parents. Believing that she was not ready for her abilities or the life he could offer her, he had his associate Mastermind use his illusion powers to re-write Lorna's memories of that day, leaving her to believe that her parents died in a plane crash when she was an infant. Lorna survived the crash and was found by her true father, Magneto, who had been drawn to the location by her magnetic pulse. An argument erupted, upsetting the infant Lorna whose desperation to make her parents stop fighting caused an early manifestation of her immense magnetic abilities, which caused a magnetic pulse that destroyed the plane and killed her parents, as well as giving her hair its iconic green color.
Her mother's husband, Arnold, later learned of this affair and confronted his wife while he was flying her and Lorna on his plane. Lorna Dane is a mutant, born of an affair between her mother Suzanna and Magneto.
