Blightswill is a substance derived from the toxic soil of the Blightspoke, with the unique property of neutralizing mutant powers.[1] When drunk, this effect is temporary; a concentrated injection, however, can remove a mutant's powers more permanently.
History
Blightswill was consumed as an alcoholic drink on Otherworld. Storm and Wolverine drank it to neutralize their powers during a round of the Contest of Swords.[1]
Mutant-hater Reuben Brousseau stole and sold samples of Blightswill to Orchis, who in turn found out that the substance's mutant-neutralizing properties could make Krakoa sick. After this plan was foiled by some Krakoan War College students, Jacob Williams used his powers to heal Krakoa from the infection. Secret e-mails between Orchis members however revealed that Reuben could provide them with more.[2]
On the night of the third Hellfire Gala, Moira X used a dagger coated with Blightswill to kill Jean Grey.[3] After his treachery was discovered, an injection of Blightswill was used to deactivate Judas Traveller's powers.[4]See Also
