The Mutant Skrulls
Origin[]
The Mutant Skrulls, also named by the Skrulls authorities "K-Class Deviant Skrulls" and Deviants by the common population,[9] are a kind of mutated[9] Skrulls, tracked and killed by the Purifiers.[4]
On Carpiax IV, skrull Lord Merrek's fecundity-supplement programs apparently resulted in a higher percentage of mutant births.[4]
Cadre K[]
They were eventually gathered into Cadre K by Charles Xavier, as an equivalent of his X-Men to fought the Skrull Empire to rescue their kind from being culled at birth, agitated for mutant rights. Roster includes Fiz, Nuro, R'tee, Spunje, Z'Cann, Goroth all with various powers. A number came into contact with Apocalypse and were forced into serving him during his plot to gain the power of the Twelve. Founded and initially Professor X of the X-Men who went into space to train them, giving them the name Cadre K.
Cadre K battled Dakr't, Trl'k, and the Purifiers on Carpiax IV.
Cadre K and Xavier returned to Earth during the Ruul's attempt to overtake the planet by turning it into an intergalactic prison. A wounded Z'Cann attempted to pass on vital information to Rogue. Their physical contact affected Rogue's powers for some time. The information was received and the X-Men were reunited with Bishop.[10] Z'Cann was fatally wounded, was took care of her by the X-Man Forge but recovered at the end[11] and finally recovered from her wounds.[12]
Secret Invasion[]
In a file compiled by Chancellor Kal'du for Veranke,[13] the Cadre K was still rejected by the Skrull Empire. According to their information at the time, (which included the massive de-powering of earth's mutants), they seemed to be still powered, and unaffected by the "No More Mutants" spell.
At some point, they entered in conflict with Chitauri.[9]
Charles Xavier's death[]
Some time after the Avengers vs. X-Men conflict, the Skrull K'thron came to Earth, kidnapped Cyclops and Captain America, and revealed to them that Cadre K intended to take revenge on meta-humanity for the Skrull defeat during the Secret Invasion.[9]Powers and Abilities

Variable.
It was speculated by K'thron that the mutated physiology of the mutant Skrulls might render some Skrull detectors ineffective.[9]
Like the common Skrulls, the mutants are able to shape-shift.[9]Miscellaneous

Notes
- The K-Class Deviants aren't the result of the Prime Skrulls' latent potential (like the human mutants for Homo sapiens), but an offshoot of the Deviant Skrulls (the species more commonly known simply as "Skrulls").
- Other Skrull mutants include:
- S'Byll, who was deemed as such after she mutated from exposure to the Silver Surfer's Power Cosmic.[14]
- The Prime Skrull, from the eponymous Skrull branch, whose latent mutant abilities were activated by the inoculation of an Adrenaline Compound from Deviant and Prime Skrulls.[15]
- G'illian Blax'zthor, a Deviant Skrull who is not privy to the shape-shifting limitations inherent to other members of her species. (E.g., she can grow to giant size and stretch her arms farther than her peers can.)[16]
