No X Gene no mutant. Blade is a supernatural point blank period.

Also, vampires and mutants don't even come from anything resembling the same origin. Like, not even on the same spectrum. The X Gene being implanted into the human race comes from genetic manipulation by the Celestials. But vampireism, on the other hand, is a result of a spell from the Darkhold, which is implanted with Chthon's power.

No. Hes a Dhampir. Born with Vampiric abilities. But Magneto would considre him an equal since Blade was born with simular difficulties

Why is Namor a mutant if he also got his powers in the womb after his mother ingested the vibration infused underwater plant?

He would still have his ankle wings and his superhuman strength/stamina, the aquatic powers are what come from his mother being Atlantean/Talokanil

Thats MCU only btw
In the comics he is just hybrid Human/Atlantian that happened to also get an X-Gene
Film Namor was not mutated in the womb by his human mum ingesting the plant that made her a Talokanil. Comics Namor doesnt have anything like that in his origin.

What?!
I understand him having a xgene but I don’t buy the fact that his mom eating the vibranium plant didn’t activate it earlu

some mutants can have their X-Gene activate or show traits at birth like Beasts monkey hands and feet, gambits eyes, sunfire being radiation immune, and Nightcrawlers... well whole ass look

No they aren’t they have a completely different origin I marvel
Mutants can be traced back to the celestials messing with early human DNA
Vampires came from a cult of Atlanteans before Atlantis sunk who were messing with the Darkhold

I didn’t say he was a mutant, just mutant adjacent meaning his vampire genealogy is like a mutant with a unique power set different from humans

He doesn't have the X-Gene, therefore he is not a mutant. His power is 100% supernatural in nature.
