    Moira comes back in the exact same body and relives her life with the exact same people in it. The only change is the Everytime she comes back she has all the knowledge of any previous lives and is even self aware in utero. The only changes that occur are the ones that she chooses. For example the way she approaches Xavier or not.

    Was expecting a bit more enthusiasm from Rob at the part where Destiny completely dumps on Moira. Told her that she'd prevent her own death at Moira's hands if she tried it after reincarnating, then explained that if she didn't get on the good foot and help mutant kind, she'd find her ass in every subsequent life and annihilate her. And then the weenie roast happened. That entire scene was one of the best in the book.

    If we want to be technical, one could presume Magneto a telepath, part and thanks to the ability to mess with electromagnetic waves. He could literally tamper with brain chemistry. He could stop your heart beat by stopping the battery like pulse it produces to keep going. You could probably get a massive mountain of ideas of what he MIGHT be able to do, in fact, Magneto has one of the most interesting a large scale lists out there, because electromagnetism is such a fundamental component to almost everything in existence related to matter. I even imagine him capable of separating the bonds of physical matter by releasing it of its electromagnetism. He's probably even capable of affected the strong and weak nuclear forces because of it. I'm certain, that if Magneto devoted his life to studying his own power, he would find out to some at least SMALL degree, he really is a reality warping character. Lastly, one who can control magnetism inherently should be able to control the freeflow directional patterns of electricity itself, essentially saying if Magento wanted to become a lightning rod, well, scientifically speaking.... he technically should be able to.

      That's not what telepathy is and Magneto is already classified as an Omega level mutant, meaning there is no upper limit to what he can do with his powers. Although he is capable of reality warping as that's a completely separate ability that mutants like Proteus have.

Still, if he can use his power across that much distance .... yeesh.
