Notes:

Through the magick of Limbo, Illyana aged seven years in Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #160, and she joined the New Mutants as "Magik" in New Mutants (1st series) #14. Later, during Inferno, Magik was regressed back to her true age in New Mutants (1st series) #73. She died of the Legacy Virus in Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #303. Belasco later conjured a soulless reincarnation of Illyana in New X-Men (2nd series) #38. This "Illyana 2.0", as Warlock put it, eventually reclaimed the fragments of the original Illyana's soul from the Bloodstone amulet, effectively becoming the original in New Mutants (3rd series) #21.
