History: (X-Babies I#3 (fb) - BTS) - The Mojoverse's Mr. Veech usurped Mojo's control and took over, replacing Mojo's X-Babies program with a kinder, gentler "Adorable X-Babies" show that taught wholesome lessons starring a group of newly-created toddler-aged X-Babies including "L'il Rogue" and others.

(X-Babies I#3) - When the true X-Babies confronted Veech, he sent "L'il Rogue" and the rest of the Adorable X-Babies to defend him. Agreeing with "Colossus" that threatening them wasn't nice (correcting herself from saying "ain't" to "isn't"), "L'il Rogue" flew at the true X-Babies but she was grabbed out of the air by the X-Babies' Colossus. She eventually teamed with her teammates "Colossus" and "Kitty Pryde" to gang up on the true X-Babies' Colossus, eventually downing him and moving on to confront the X-Babies' Kitty Pryde. When the X-Babies' Wolverine and his allies arrived, however, Wolverine sliced "L'il Rogue" and the other Adorable X-Babies into ribbons and Veech used their protoplasmic forms to not only restore the Adorable X-Babies but create more of them.

(X-Babies I#4) - "L'il Rogue" and the new army of Adorable X-Babies were sent to attack the true X-Babies and their allies, and "L'il Rogue" flew straight at Colossus, only to be frozen in mid-air by a freeze spell cast by Wally the Wizard. Wally then jumped onto the ice block that was "L'il Rogue" and skated around the battlefield on it. "L'il Rogue" eventually thawed but was sucked into a teleportational portal created by the true X-Babies' Rogue, who had absorbed the powers of Veech's ally Spiral.

(Exiles III#8 (fb)) - Arriving on Earth-32518, "L'il Rogue" and the other Adorable X-Babies founded Xavier's Playtime Fun School for Gifted Youngsters, where they lived and enjoyed story time and picnics together. During one such outing, "L'il Rogue"'s bandana was playfully taken by "L'il Gambit," who ran off with it as "L'il Rogue" gave chase.

(Exiles III#8 - BTS) - When "L'il Rogue"'s former teammate Wolvie was forced to give mental testimony about his life leading up to joining the reality-hopping Exiles, a memory of "L'il Rogue" chasing "L'il Gambit" to get her bandana back was displayed.

Comments: Created by Gregg Schigiel and Jacob Chabot.

In her three (so far) appearances, the Adorable X-Babies Rogue counterpart was never identified by name but since the Magneto counterpart was identified as L'il Magneto, I chose to go with "L'il Rogue" for the purposes of this profile. If she is ever identified, I will update the profile to reflect the name.
