At times when Rogue would become unconscious, or in extreme stress, Danvers' personality would take-over. Rogue and Dazzler formed a tepid friendship, which was tested several times as Rogue envied Dazzler's relationship with teammate Longshot. Rogue even dressed and posed as Dazzler to court the man's attention. Rogue isn't like the other X-Men. Not by a longshot! She hails from Mississippi, so not only does she possess that sugary sweet southern accent, but she's well versed in the art of southern hospitality. That means when she's using her super strength to pummel a bad guy into pulp, she still makes sure to be kind and polite about it. She might even shake Mister Sinister's hand before throwing him through a wall. Actually, maybe she could teach Wolverine a thing or two about being polite! After the events of "Age of X" Rogue became torn between her feelings for Gambit and Magneto. Gambit stated that she had to be ready for him for good before he could be with her again, and that he would be waiting for her when she was ready. After Rogue confronted Magneto about his past, she spent a night with him, promising nothing else. Afterwards, Rogue joined Professor X, Frenzy, Legion, Magneto, and Gambit on a mission to capture several of Legion's personalities that escaped after Age of X. The final battle with Legion's personality Styx resulted in Rogue temporarily absorbing many of Legion's powers, which led her to finding the location of Havok, Polaris, and Marvel Girl, the mutants that were left in space after the X-Men's mission to stop Vulcan.

She later gained Sunfire's powers after absorbing them when he was dying, subsequent to his battle with Lady Deathstrike, who amputated both his legs. After Xavier’s death, Rogue adopted a uniform that looked very similar to her original Brotherhood one. It consisted on a green, hooded top with white trimming, which zipped up the front. She wore green leggings and green thigh-high boots. She sometimes wore a white belt with it too. [Uncanny Avengers (1st series) #1] Superhuman Stamina: Her ionic body presumably grants her unlimited stamina and is therefore immune to fatigue.

After returning from the Secret Wars, Rogue tried out another look with this brown tunic, though apparently she was not happy with the color. [Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #182]

Rogue is able to absorb psyches and abilities of several beings at once, though the experience can be confusing and disorienting for her.For a time, Rogue altered between the Shi’ar mining suit and her original, hooded, green uniform. Wolverine asked her about the reasons for the change but Rogue remained very cryptic. [Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #356] Rogue reflects the stereotype of a southern belle, a woman in the South who is beautiful, flirtatious, yet chaste.

The issue in which Rogue joins the X-Men Uncanny X-Men #171 was voted the 49th greatest Marvel Comic of all time. Speaking of Ponytails, Rogue also wore one during her time spent on Utopia, and in my opinion, it – and her costume – was marginally better than her revolution one. The X-Men battled the Juggernaut and Nimrod. Rogue absorbed the powers of most of her teammates to defeat Nimrod.

Mystique seemingly tried to repair her relationship with Rogue but was rebuffed. Rogue's team defeated the group known as the Children of the Vault. Afterward, Rogue declared her team would be leaving the X-Mansion. Rogue was hospitalized after a battle with Pandemic. Cable, desiring Rogue's help in defeating the Hecatomb, forced Rogue awake. Pandemic infected Rogue with a virus, Strain 88, altering her powers by amplifying them into an instantaneous death-touch. In defeating Hecatomb, Rogue absorbed psyches of eight billion entities that had been stored inside it.
