#2
== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Janet Van Dyne (Formerly Pym)
Alias: The Wasp
Age: 33
Sexuality: Hetrosexual
Part of New York Residing In: Avengers Tower (Central)

== Physical Description == Jan is built very well muscled and toned coming in at 5`6, beautiful face and trendy haircut. Jan always dresses with style and charisma weather she is in or out of her costume.   

== Persona == Jane is very much a party girl, she likes to be the centre of attention. While she is brave in the field she can be lacking ins elf confidence hence her on/off relationship with her ex husband Hank Pym. Janet is outgoing and outspoken.  She is not easily intimidated, and virtually impossible to dissuade.  She can be very shallow, at times, seeking personal pleasure or gain without regard to the consequences or others who may be involved.


== Key Skills ==
Size Reduction: Janet's primary power is the ability to reduce her bodily size through force of will.  She retains her normal strength while reduced in size.  In addition, Janet is limited by her body's natural neurological reflex that prevents her from shrinking to below a certain size.

Flight: When reduced in size, a pair of insect-like wings grow from Janet's back.  These wings allow her to fly at an unknown maximum speed.

Bio-Electrical Blasts: Janet is also capable of producing blasts of bio-electrical energy that she calls her "Wasp Stings".  These stings vary in potency, depending on her size.  While her size is reduced, Janet can utilize painful shocks that harm even superhumanly durable beings. While at full size, however, her blasts can kill a human in the same way that a lightning bolt would.

== Advantages == Hand to hand combat, taught by Steve Rogers himself, basic Nursing skills,  she picks up athletics' easily. Got a Degree in Biology.

== Disadvantages == The capability of Janet's sting is dependent on her size. Also, at small size, Janet is at risk of getting crushed.

== Background == Janet van Dyne was a daughter of a wealthy scientist named Vernon van Dyne. During an experiment, however, an alien monster was unleashed and Dr. van Dyne was killed. Her father's associate, Dr. Henry "Hank" Pym, had created a substance called "Pym particles", which allowed the user to grow or shrink in size, and had become the superhero Ant-Man; when Janet's father died, she convinced Pym to help her, and he gave her a supply of "Pym particles" and subjected her to a procedure which granted her the ability to, upon shrinking, grow wings and fire blasts of energy, which she called her "wasp's stings". As Ant-Man and The Wasp, they defeated the monster and sent it to its own dimension, and had several more adventures together. To the Wasp's credit her first solo victory, despite the protests of her absent partner, was against the maniacal Magician.

Soon afterward, the superhero team, which Janet herself dubbed the Avengers, formed, and the pair were among its founding members.  (Additional information will be revealed in-game.)


== Character Extras == Face Claim: Evangeline Lily

VoluptuousVixen

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Jean Grey
Alias: Marvel Girl
Age: 17
Sexuality: Hetrosexual
Part of New York Residing In: Greenwich Village Studio Apartment

== Physical Description == 5`7 Jean is a attractive teenage girl with a good toned body for her age. 

== Persona == This version of Jean is traumizted to learn the future of her counterpart and as such is determined not to g back to the past where she comes from and to have the same fate. Jean is fine with been a time paradox.

== Key Skills ==
Jean is able to read thoughts, project and broadcast her own thoughts, as well as affect the minds of humans and animals with higher order intelligence (such as dolphins, ravens or dogs). Jean quickly displayed advanced telepathic skills, after being tutored by Kitty Pryde, such as cloaking herself and Scott Summers from even the most powerful of the future X-Mens' telepaths. The extent of her power was evidenced when she blasted Thor out of her path during a confrontation with the Avengers and most prominently during an altercation with Xorn (her future self), whom she was able to overpower through sheer power in spite of her inferior experience . The magnitude of this achievement is shown by the fact that even the combined might of Emma Frost and the Stepford Cuckoos was insufficient to defeat her. She has demonstrated the following specialized uses:

Telepathic Defense: She can manifest her telepathy in a number of defensive ways.
◾Telepathic Cloak: She can mask her presence and the use of her abilities from being detected by other psions and psychic entities. She can extend these defenses to others around her as well. Cloaking via telepathy is not perfect and powerful psis may notice and 'see' through this ability.
◾Cloak Mind: Ability to rearrange the “mental engrams” of mutants so their distinctive mutant thought patterns cannot be detected by Cerebro-type devises or by other telepaths.
◾Psychic Shield: Ability to erect a psychic shield for protection of herself and of others minds.

Telepathic Illusions: She can create realistic telepathic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring.
Telepathic Camouflage: She can alter the apparent physical appearance of herself and other people by altering the perceptions of those around her. This can go so far as to make other people believe that the camouflaged people are not there (invisible). A limit, if one exists, is only imposed by the number of people she is trying to fool, not the number of people she is camouflaging.

Telepathic Manipulation: She can manipulate other people's minds easily, achieving a variety of effects.
◾Mind Control: She can control the thoughts and actions of others.
◾Mind Possession: She can possess the mind of another, and use that being's body as her own.
◾Personality Alteration: She can alter the minds of others by force of will, thus permanently changing their personality partially or entirely.
◾Mental Paralysis: She can induce temporary mental or physical paralysis.
◾Mental Amnesia: She can erase any awareness of particular memories or cause total amnesia.
◾Mind Transferal: She can transfer both her mind and powers into other host bodies if her own physical body could be somehow killed.

== Advantages == Jean is a straight A student with a high capacity to learn, her telepathic power helps her with this. Trained in hand to hand combat by Kitty Pyde she can pack a punch even without her mutation.

== Disadvantages ==  Jean is still learning her powers which means she can be vulnerable even to her own powers. She is vulnerable to telepaths with more skill such as Mastermind, she is vulnerable to magic based attacks.

== Background ==
The path of Jean Grey of this universe seemingly followed the same as her Earth-616 counterpart until the day when Beast from an alternate future traveled to their universe in order to inform them that the future was in a bad state, and that only these X-Men could help fix it.

Jean and the rest of the team accompanied this Beast to the "future," where Cyclops had killed Charles Xavier, Jean was dead (and the school named after her), and Beast was dying from his second mutation. Because Charles Xavier was not present (dead) the mental blocks he placed on her telepathy were destroyed. That caused Jean to access her telepathy a year earlier than she was supposed to.

After confronting and seeing into the mind of the "future Cyclops" Jean was repulsed and rejected her own Scott. Later, she used her telepathy to help "past Hank" save "future Hank" from death.

Under Kitty Pryde's leadership, the team decided to stay and resolve the problems of this time, before returning to their own. Due to the present X-Men expressing doubt about Scott's leadership due to the actions of his future self, Jean was appointed leader of the displaced X-Men.

Following the battle with the future X-Men and future Brotherhood- which included a future version of young Jean who had defected to the Brotherhood- the displaced X-Men and Kitty relocated to join the future Cyclops due to Kitty's feelings that Logan's team had betrayed their founders.

Soon after their relocation, Jean Grey was abducted by the Shi'ar Empire to be put on trial for crimes perpetrated by the Phoenix. After her teammates and the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Starjammers team up on a rescue mission, they get into a battle with the Shi'ar Imperial Guard and Jean develops new powers combining her Telepathy and Telekinesis fighting face to face with Gladiator and coming out on top. Afterwards, Jean points out that none of what's happened to her has happened before, so she should not be held responsible for a future she may no longer be a part of.
When Raze Darkholme attempted to turn this world into a sanctuary for mutants by teleporting all non-mutants away from Earth and summoning other mutants from dimensions where they were oppressed by humans, one of the members of his displaced Brotherhood was a version of Jean Grey, still in her 'Dark Phoenix' phase and barely under the control of her world's Mastermind. Despite her mental state, Jean was able to appeal to her other self, allowing her to not only safely restore the humans, but also create a new pocket dimension for the displaced mutants to retreat to.

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name:  Laura Kinney
Alias:  X-23 Wolverine
Age:  18
Sexuality:  Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In:  New Charles Xavier School for Mutants

== Physical Description ==

Standing at 5'1" and weighing only one hundred and ten pounds, Laura Kinney appears as your typical fair-skinned young woman.  Generally, Laura dresses in dark clothing and adds just enough cosmetic around the eye to contrast her light green eyes.  Because of the healing factor, she retains a scarless body and a taut physique. 

== Persona ==           

At heart, Laura Kinney is a young woman with repressed, stunted emotional development by her upbringing.  As a result, she appears cold and distant with a driven and dark attitude.  At the core, Laura is a taciturn and keeps to herself.  When she speaks, she rarely mutters more than one sentence or two at a time and speaks in perfect grammar.  However, she has also been shown to repeat word-for-word what someone says even when she seems to be not listening.  Laura has a low self-esteem, engaging in self-harm by cutting herself when she is upset at things.  This is largely speculated to be the sign of emotional trauma and it is further cemented at her tendency to put very little value in her personal safety and make suicidal decisions.  However, these decisions often come with the accompanied sense of selflessnes.  She is also one of the first to leap into harm's way for the sake of protecting friends, family and teammates.  Another show of these low self-esteem is her disdain for others killing while being perfectly fine doing so herself (unless it is a friend or family member at the receiving end).  When she engages an enemy, she rarely does so without lethal force, exhibiting an almost nonexistent sense of restraint.  She is not incapable of attachment or friendship or even love, evident in the emotional investment into varying friends and loved ones.  An example would be Wolverine, whom she also looked to as a guiding father figure or Hellion, whom she had a crush on.

== Key Skills ==
Regenerative Healing Factor: Wolverine's primary mutant power is an accelerated healing factor that enables her to regenerate damaged or destroyed tissue with far greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human.  She is capable of fully healing injuries resulting in massive tissue damage and blood loss such as multiple bullet wounds, slash wounds, and puncture wounds within a matter of minutes.  She has also been shown to be able to reattach limbs; for example, she reattached her hand in seconds after she severed it to escape the restraints placed on her.  The effects of her accelerated healing powers extend to her body's immune system, rendering her immune to disease and infection. She is also immune to most drugs and toxins, although she can be affected by certain drugs if given sufficient dosage. Given the regenerative nature of her cells, it's implied her powers will heavily retard the aging process.
Natural Weaponry:  Wolverine's skeleton includes two retractable bone claws in each arm and one in each foot that she can extend and retract at will.  These claws are housed beneath the skin and muscle.  Unsheathing them causes her skin to tear and bleed, but the wounds are quickly dealt with by her healing factor. X-23 can unsheathe any number of these claws at once.  The claws are naturally sharp and tougher than normal human bone, allowing X-23 to cut through most types of flesh and natural materials.  The claws have been coated with the nigh-indestructible metal Adamantium. As a result, her claws are virtually unbreakable and are capable of cutting almost any substance, with the exceptions of Adamantium itself.  Her ability to slice completely through a substance depends upon the amount of force she can exert and the thickness of the substance.
Covert Operations Training:  Raised in captivity, due to her extensive training as a top-secret operative, Wolverine has been trained to become a living weapon. She is highly trained in the use of long range weapons and explosives, and is an expert in assassination techniques.She is a master in hand to hand combatant, with intensive training in numerous armed and unarmed martial arts techniques do to her raise in the facility.  She is an Olympic class athlete, gymnast, acrobat and aerialist capable of numerous complex maneuvers and feats.  She can speak fluent American English, French, and Japanese. She might be able to speak other languages.  She possesses superhumanly acute senses that are comparable to those of certain animals. She is capable of seeing at much greater distances, and with perfect clarity, than an ordinary human. She retains this same level of clarity in near-total darkness. Her sense of hearing is enhanced in a similar manner, allowing her to both hear sounds that ordinary humans can't and can, but at much greater distances.

== Advantages ==
Wolverine possesses the ability to quickly process multiple information streams (e.g., threat assessment) and rapidly respond to changing tactical situations.  Due to her enhanced sense of smell, Laura is a dangerous tracker and has memorized many different scents.  Her muscles produce considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the muscles of an ordinary human. She can exert herself at peak capacity for about 24 hours before fatigue begins to impair her.  Her reflexes, agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.

== Disadvantages ==
Her healing factor may fluctuate with her psychological state as battle wounds tend to heal very quickly, but her self inflicted cuts appear to remain visible for some time.  She must keep her wrists and/or feet straight at the moment the claws emerge.  Since the bones of her hands and wrists are not laced with Adamantium, it is likely that the reverberation of her claws could conceivably break her hands with significant force.  he has also been subjected to conditioning in which a specific "trigger scent" has been used to send her into a berserker rage, killing anything in sight.  Her heightened senses also leave her vulnerable to sonic attacks and very bright flashes of light.

== Background ==
Origins and Beginnings

A top-secret program is tasked to replicate the original Weapon X experiment that bonded adamantium to the skeleton of Wolverine. The project is taken in a new direction: Dr. Martin Sutter recruits renowned mutant geneticist Doctor Sarah Kinney to develop a clone of Wolverine. Also on the team is Sutter's protege, Dr. Zander Rice, who was raised by Sutter after his father was killed by the original Weapon X.  Since the only genetic sample from Weapon X is damaged, Kinney is unable to salvage the Y chromosome. Kinney proposes the creation of a female genetic twin. Her request is denied; Rice is opposed to the idea. After 22 failed attempts at reconstituting the DNA using a duplicate X chromosome, the 23rd sample yields a viable sample to combine with an embryo. Although Kinney is allowed to proceed, Rice exacts revenge for her insubordination by forcing her to act as the surrogate mother of the specimen. For nine months, Kinney's every move is monitored. Finally, she gives birth to "X-23".  After seven years, Rice subjects X-23 to radiation poisoning in order to activate her mutant gene. He extracts her claws, coats them with adamantium, and reinserts them back into her hands and feet – a procedure performed without affording the child any anesthetic. Rice creates a "trigger scent" that drives X-23 into a murderous rage when she detects it.  X-23 is then trained to be a hired assassin, ordered to kill "anyone ... everyone ... for a price."  Kinney's niece Megan is abducted by a serial killer; she smuggles X-23 out of the facility to rescue her. X-23 tracks the abductor to his apartment, kills him, and frees Megan. Kinney is fired when she returns and is escorted off the base. Shortly thereafter, Rice assigns X-23 to eliminate Sutter and his family. He orders her to keep it secret.  X-23 reveals to Sarah that Rice is responsible for the murders. Before Kinney leaves, Rice reveals a chamber containing the incubation pods for subjects X-24 through X-50.  Kinney drafts a letter to her daughter, assigning her a final mission: destroy the pods and kill Rice. X-23 succeeds and meets her mother, and they prepare to flee. However, prior to his death, Rice exposed Kinney to the trigger scent. X-23 goes into a murderous frenzy and kills her mother. As she lies dying, Kinney tells X-23 that her name is Laura and that she loves her, and hands her the letter and pictures of Charles Xavier, Wolverine, and the Xavier Institute.

After being arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, X-23 awakens bound and gagged in the company of Captain America and Matt Murdock, who proceed to interrogate her about her past. X-23 describes how she traveled to San Francisco and tracked down Megan and Debbie (her mother's sister). Introducing herself as Sarah's daughter, she moves in with them. Although Megan experiences vivid nightmares of her abduction, her family believes these to be utter fantasies. X-23 informs Megan that the man in her nightmares was indeed real and that she killed him.  Debbie's boyfriend turns out to be an agent for the Facility who has been instructed to manipulate X-23 into killing Megan and Debbie using the trigger scent. The agent fumbles the assignment and is killed by X-23. Facility agents storm the house, led by the woman who served as X-23's handler, Kimura. Kimura had treated X-23 harshly in the facility, punishing her even if the missions went according to plan.  X-23 manages to get Megan and Debbie to safety by handcuffing Kimura to a radiator and then triggering an explosion in the house, buying some time. After X-23 and Megan part, X-23 decides to confront the man who made her creation possible, Wolverine.  X-23 tracks Wolverine to Xavier's mansion and engages him in a battle, defeating him using tactics and maneuverability. She does not kill Wolverine, instead telling him why she came. Wolverine reveals that he is aware of X-23's ordeal, having received a detailed letter from her mother. The talk is interrupted when Captain America comes to arrest Laura.  Despite the mayhem in her past, Matt Murdock accepts X-23's innocence. Captain America wants X-23 to atone for the murders she has committed. He ultimately frees X-23 in order to avoid S.H.I.E.L.D. exploiting her as their own weapon.
Joining the X-Men

X-23 surfaces in New York City and is taken in by a pimp named Zebra Daddy. She works as a prostitute who caters to sadomasochistic patrons. X-23 continues to cut herself with her own claws, is mostly mute, and proves unable to free herself from the grip of Zebra Daddy. Upon meeting Kiden Nixon, a young mutant with the ability to freeze time when in danger, and Tatiana Caban, a mutant who can take on the physical attributes of whoever and whatever she comes into contact with via their blood, X-23 starts to come to her senses. Although she runs away from Zebra Daddy, he tracks her down. With the aid of her new-found friends (and the mutant named Bobby Soul), Zebra Daddy and his thugs are defeated: X-23 kills him to save the lives of her friends.  X-23 takes a job as a waitress at the mutant-themed "Wannabee's" nightclub in the Mutant Town district of New York.  She defends Jade Parisi, daughter of mob boss Don Parisi, against some thugs who berate her for having a mutant boyfriend. X-23 kills some of the thugs and helps Jade escape and go into hiding. The deaths inadvertently implicate Wolverine, prompting his teammates to investigate. X-23 attacks Wolverine on sight, but he eventually calms her down. She leads the X-Men to Parisi's daughter. After aiding the X-Men against Parisi's mutant enforcer Geech, X-23 flees the scene. This encounter is later revealed to be partially arranged between X-23 and Wolverine in order for her to encounter and ally with the X-Men without revealing her past.  She later returns to help the X-Men save victims of a car accident, after which she is enrolled at the Xavier Institute and assigned a room with Rachel Summers and Kitty Pryde.  X-23 behaves protectively towards Wolverine, observing him on the mansion's security monitors and even attacking his teammate Bishop after he floors Wolverine during a training session.  During one of her sessions at the mansion's monitors, an anomalous energy spike prompts X-23 to investigate. She encounters Spider-Man at the source of the signal, mistaking him for an enemy, she attacks him. The pair ultimately team up to save the young mutant Paul Patterson from an alternate reality version of Iron Man known as Iron Maniac. The arrival of Captain America and the super-spy Black Widow help turn the tide, with Spider-Man and X-23 destroying Iron Maniac's equipment using their own version of the classic Fastball Special.  X-23 secretly follows Wolverine on his investigation of strange activity in the Canadian Rockies. Ambushed by the Hauk'ka, evolved Saurians from the Savage Land, X-23 manages to escape and alert the X-Men. Traveling to the Savage Land, X-23 and the X-Men team-up with the Savage Land's lord Ka-Zar and his allies, the Savage Land Mutates, to prevent the Hauk'ka from destroying human civilization by exerting control over the weather-manipulating X-Man, Storm.

After the events of "House of M" and "Decimation", X-23 was one of the few mutants to retain her powers. X-23, having previously left the institute off-panel, returns to the X-Mansion at Wolverine's insistence. Laura is assigned a room with fellow mutant student Sooraya Qadir. She begins to develop an attraction towards Julian Keller, aka Hellion, protecting him while participating in holographic combat simulations created for members of the student body by David Alleyne, formerly a mutant codenamed Prodigy.  After Jay Guthrie appears bloodied and beaten on the doorstep of the institute, Emma Frost has the powered students compete in a free-for-all brawl, with those deemed to be the best performers assigned to a new team of trainee X-Men. Despite Frost's attempts to omit her, X-23 is among those students who excel during the exercise, and also receives unexpected aid from Hellion, whom Frost has instructed to take out X-23 from the battle first. She is placed on the team with Mercury, Dust, Hellion, Elixir, Rockslide, and team leader Surge by Cyclops, who thwarts Frost's attempts to keep her off the team by pulling rank.  As the depowered students and staff are leaving the school, their bus is bombed by anti-mutant religious zealot Reverend William Stryker. X-23 overhears Dust talking to Icarus, who had fled the Mansion. Dust intends to meet Jay, but Laura warns her that it's a trap, and takes Dust's place. Donning Dust's abayat and niqāb, X-23 is shot upon arriving at Stryker's compound. Laura returns to the Mansion and singlehandedly kills three Purifiers who have incapacitated Surge, Hellion, and Emma Frost.  When Surge receives a distress call from Forge, X-23 accompanies the New X-Men. Although the team disables the Nimrod unit, X-23 is grievously wounded and is unable to heal herself. In order to save X-23, Hellion convinces Emma Frost to unlock his telekinetic potential, increasing his powers (and thus, his speed) to a level thought impossible by an O.N.E. sentinel guard. This allows them to fly back to the mansion in time for Laura to be healed by Elixir.

While Laura is bonding over coffee with Cessily, the cafe is attacked by Kimura and her minions, who in turn capture Cessily. After Laura returns to the school, she and Hellion go off to locate the Facility's whereabouts. X-23 interrogates a man at gun point, and upon securing the information, shoots him in the head. Hellion informs her that killing will no longer be a part of their interrogation technique.  X-23 and Hellion infiltrate the Facility and after an encounter with Kimura, the two soon find Cessily in liquid form, barely able to compose herself. They are attacked by Predator X, who has absorbed Cessily's liquid mercury skin. X-23 and Hellion decide to fall back, but are pursued by the Predators. The group is once again ambushed, only to be rescued by the Astonishing X-Men and New X-Men. The two teams turn the tables on the attackers, and defeat the remaining facility troops. During the shuffle, the remaining Predator escapes.  Sometime later, Emma Frost finds Kimura trying to assassinate X-23, and confronts her, erasing the one happy moment in Kimura's life from her memory, and psychically suggesting that Kimura's assignment now is to hunt down the remaining members of the Facility and kill them.  Searching for Magik, the demon lord Belasco brings the students to Limbo. X-23 is one of the students trapped there. She is depicted trying to fight off her restraints. X-23's enhanced sight enables her to see the Institute and she tells Trance to use her astral projection powers to go to the Institute. She tells Elixir that Belasco plans to kill David, Dust, and Mercury. Afterwards, she urges Mercury and Dust to fight Belasco. The demon lord is not impressed by her attacks, and, as he declares her soul not worth taking, reduces X-23 to nothing but bones and adamantium claws with an energy blast. He later uses his magic to resurrect her, but then proceeds to torture X-23, claiming he will kill and resurrect as many of the students as he desires until Magik is brought to him. She is then revived by Elixir and at David's instructions, frees the Stepford Cuckoos before slowing Belasco's stride.  X-23 goes up against the Hulk. With several other students, she pins him down, but is knocked away when he regains his strength. Attacking him a second time, she manages to blind him with the claw in her foot. Hulk recovers, grabs X-23, and hurls her into the mansion, stating grimly he hopes she heals like Wolverine.  X-23 and Rockslide were trying to convince Anole to cut off his other arm so it would grow back stronger. After Anole refuses, she is later seen being interviewed by Surge about what happened to Prodigy in Limbo.  Later, the students of the Xavier Institute are trying to find out which one of them is the youngest mutant on the planet. During the meeting, Surge kisses Hellion, which upsets X-23 and she runs away. Mercury finds her in the girl’s restroom, having trashed it in a fit of rage. She wonders what is happening and does not understand what she is feeling. Mercury hugs her and tries to reassure her that anyone can feel jealous and that she is not alone anymore. In the end, she is seen lying on the floor laughing and relaxing with Mercury and Dust.
Joining the X-Force

Some of the New X-Men decide to launch a preemptive strike against the Purifiers. While spying on the Purifiers, X-23 manages to impress Armor with her senses. They are ambushed by the Reavers, whose leader, Lady Deathstrike mortally wounds Hellion and after a brief fight. Pixie manages to teleport the team out, and they are spread between Washington and the Institute.  After Iceman picks up the New X-Men, the mansion is attacked by Sentinels. He and X-23 take them out. Cyclops, realizing he has to up the stakes and get the child no matter what, decides it is time to assemble the X-Force which features Laura, Wolverine, Wolfsbane, Caliban, Warpath, and Hepzibah.  While in pursuit of Cable and the mutant newborn, X-Force battles Lady Deathstrike and her new Reavers. Wolverine sets X-23 against Deathstrike, who wants revenge for her nearly killing Hellion, and seemingly kills her after crippling her cybernetic systems and her healing factor. Later, she traveled with X-Force to Eagle Plaza in Dallas and then to Muir Island, the Marauders' new base. During the heavy battle between the X-Men and the Marauders, X-23 saves Wolverine's life, killing Scrambler just before he scrambled Wolverine's healing factor.  After the events of Messiah Complex, Cyclops decides to form a black ops incarnation of X-Force that would be able to use any means necessary, including lethal force, to preemptively deal with the threats that would be too dangerous or unsavory for the X-Men to handle normally. X-23 is the first member to join the team as she is drafted by Cyclops due to her inherent tracking skills as well as assassination training. Wolverine is later approached to lead the team, and although he accepts, he becomes angry and disappointed to find out that Cyclops had drafted Laura without consulting him first. He is also disappointed that Laura had agreed to join an operation that would expose her to the same types of brutality and ruthlessness that he had been trying to remove her from in the first place.

Wolverine asks her to reconsider taking part in the operation, since he feels that she does not understand what she is giving up and stating that if she continues down this path she will not be Laura anymore, but X-23 once again. When Laura does not step down, Wolverine concedes "Fine. Your life."  The team's first mission has them investigating the theft of Bastion's cyborg head from a S.H.I.E.L.D. base. The mission is a failure and Matthew Risman, the leader of the Purifiers, escapes from what is left of the building ruthlessly blown up by X-23, holding Wolfsbane as his hostage.  When X-Force regroups later, Wolverine admonishes Laura for being so reckless with the lives of her teammates and for letting Rahne get kidnapped. Laura remorselessly replies to both accusations by coldly remarking "they survived" and "saving Wolfsbane was not my mission." When X-Force retrieves Elixir so that he can heal Wolfsbane, Laura is seen approaching Wolverine outside. Laura remarks that Rahne should have known better. Her comment made Wolverine angry and he admonishes her, telling her that Rahne is the person they should die for. This confuses Laura, and she is seen alone in the forest, mutilating herself with her claws. She then catches the scent of Elixir and Angel's blood respectively, and runs off to help them. She reaches the room just in time to see Wolfsbane standing above Warren with his wings in her jaws. Laura prepares to attack Wolfsbane, but remembers what Wolverine said to her earlier about Wolfsbane being the one they should die for. Therefor she allows Wolfsbane to slash her open instead.  X-23 stays by Elixir's side as they both watch Wolverine and Warpath attack Angel -who has turned into his archangel form- and witness Archangel wound Wolverine. Laura is then wounded by Archangel.  After the group manages to defeat (or rather delay) Bastion's evil plans, the X-Men attempt to understand what has happened to Wolfsbane and Angel, and also decide what to do with Elixir, who unfortunately knows too much about X-Force. X-23 believes the easiest solution would be to kill Elixir, but she does not want to do that. Instead, she goes behind everyone's back and contacts the Stepford Cuckoos, who are loyal to Cyclops and would keep X-Force's existence a secret. X-23 and Josh request that the Three-in-One erase Josh's memories of X-Force, thus allowing him to return home without being a risk to the team.

Around this time, a S.H.I.E.L.D. member known as Agent Morales begins looking into X-23's past when she comes across images of the Purifier massacre.  When the team is joined by Domino, X-23 also does not trust her, even going so far as to have her claws out when Domino is in the same room with her.  When Vanisher comes to Angel's mansion, demanding to know what they have done to him, X-23 confronts him with the rest of the team. When Archangel says that clones "are not real", X-23 does not appear to care. Elixir looks at her worriedly. She takes part in retrieving the Legacy Virus that Vanisher left behind. X-23 also attacks the Marauders' clones that attack them, killing them with very little hesitation. X-23 then tells Elixir not to "hold back" against the Marauders' clones. When X-23 tries to kill herself due to becoming infected with the Legacy Virus, Elixir stops her and gets rid of the Legacy Virus.  X-23 moves with the X-Men to San Francisco, where they are accepted as heroes by the mayor, having rejected the Fifty State Initiative. X-23 shares a room with Armor and Pixie. Laura leaves behind a towel covered with blood, which Pixie brings to Emma Frost. Frost states that it was not Laura's blood and brings the matter to the Cabal. 

X-23 is finally reunited with Kiden Nixon shortly after.  Sadly this future version of Kiden is hooked up to several machines and is used as a generator in order to create a temporal anomaly that disrupts time travel technology, essentially trapping X-Force (which is lethal for them if they do not return within 33.5 hours), Cable and Hope in this era. While X-23 agonizes over killing Kiden or not (Kiden herself asks for death) the matter is taken out of her hands when Domino shoots and kills her.  X-23, Domino, and Proudstar are dispatched back in order to save Boom Boom, however both Domino and Proudstar fall ill due to the time travel. Feeling grateful for saving her friend and ending her suffering, X-23 disables the time travel devices on the other two and goes back in time in order to save Boom Boom herself.  She arrives just in time to stop the suicidal Leper Queen from killing Boom Boom. X-23 then collapses in exhaustion. H.A.M.M.E.R. agents then storm the building, giving medical care, while they take X-23 in for questioning.   However they are not really H.A.M.M.E.R. agents, and they take her back to the Facility, much to the surprise of Agent Morales. There Laura is reunited with Kimura, who saws off her left arm.  Agent Morales arrives and helps Laura to escape. Kimura is trapped under a blast door while Laura and Agent Morales find themselves in a room containing large tanks filled with the Trigger Scent.  While inside the room, Laura cuts the claws out of her severed arm and gives them to Morales for safekeeping. She lights a Molotov cocktail of sorts which sets the sprinkler system off. The Facility soldiers finish cutting through to Laura just as Kimura realizes the sprinklers are spraying the Trigger Scent everywhere. X-23 goes feral and kills all the soldiers in her way. She gets to the Facility head's office just as the sprinklers start spraying water, washing away the scent. Kimura manages to club Laura from behind and then kills the Facility head, planning on framing Laura for it. Agent Morales arrives and sets Kimura on fire to distract her while she and Laura make their escape. Morales reveals she rigged the place to explode and they get out in time. The rest of X-Force arrives and takes Laura and her severed claws home, leading into the events of Necrosha. 

X-23 is shown to be part of Cyclops' "Alpha Roster" in the course of Second Coming event arc. Laura, along with the most of X-Force, accompany Cable and Cypher to the future in an attempt to shut down the Nimrod invasion. Following Cypher successfully over-riding the programming, Laura attempts to return through the temporal portal, only to sustain horrific injuries. The portal prevents any organic matter travelling through it. This leads Cable to sacrifice himself, allowing his techno-organic virus to overwhelm him, forcing the portal open and making it possible for the team to return to Utopia.  In the fall-out of the Second Coming, Wolverine cuts X-23 from the team, citing she has been following orders all her life, from the Facility, Weapon Plus and the X-Men. He tells her its time she made her own choices and follow her own path.  Shortly after her dismissal from X-Force, X-23 tracks a former Weapon X scientist named Detlef Metzger to a restaurant. After tying up and gagging a waitress and stealing her uniform, X-23 infiltrates the diner with the intention of capturing the man before he can perform experiments using a vial of Wolverine's blood. Before she can make her move, a group of US soldiers arrive and escape with Metzger. As the soldiers drive off, X-23 notices that Daken had been in the same restaurant and had been watching her.
X-23's Misadventures

X-23 begins having apocalyptic nightmares involving a demonic Wolverine asking her to be his "right hand in hell." Due to this, she sleeps outside as not to cause any alarm among her roommates. A rift has arisen between her and her former teammates, who are now wary of her due to her having been a part of X-Force. The only ones who side with her are Dust and Hellion. She pleasantly surprises Hellion when she tells him she has missed him, and the two share a brief moment. However, Surge's antagonizing of Laura forces Cyclops to intervene. He then tells her to visit a halfway house in San Francisco for former mutants who are trying to live normal lives. As she steps into the building, she suddenly experiences a vision similar to her dreams with the building on fire and her surrounded by dismembered corpses.  A flashback opening the second chapter of "The Killing Dream" shows Wolverine and X-23 at a theme park. While they are preparing for the roller coaster to launch, Wolverine states he is adopting her as his daughter. When brought back to the present, the fire was implied to be started by the devil possessing Wolverine. He meets X-23 in the hospital and seemingly "kills" Hellion before diving into her mind. He tries to convince her to join him as his queen in Hell.  X-23 finds her inner "light" and banishes him from her mind. She awakes to find that there is blood everywhere but she and Hellion are fine. She also notices a symbol on her hand.  The X-Men are perplexed about her situation and want her to stay so that they can "fix" her, but Gambit convinces them otherwise. X-23 silently visits Hellion's room (unaware that he knows she was there) before she leaves Utopia.

X-23 begins her journey towards self-discovery. X-23, flanked by Gambit, encountered a young girl named Alice and witness her being murdered. However, they encounter Alice the next day, very much alive and well. Encouraging them to follow her to a peculiar desert laboratory, Alice introduces them to her employer/owner/adoptive mother: Claudine (Miss Sinister). Revealing herself openly to X-23, Claudine explains that Alice is also a clone, fourth of a series of five created by Essex as another experiment alongside several other children that live in the complex. She then expands upon her own origins, stating that the process of becoming what she is left her with vague, but invasive memories of Essex's life and that as a malignant presence within her mind. He is slowly killing her as a means of self-resurrection. He even manages to manifest briefly before being re-absorbed back into her. Claudine then incapacitates Gambit and straps X-23 to a peculiar chair, stating her aim to switch their bodies - thus inheriting Laura's healing factor. She has wanted the healing factor since her stabbing, and hopes it will free her of Essex. The plan backfires when Essex in fact controls Laura's body and uses her to mortally wound Claudine again. Laura manages to overcome Essex's presence in her mind, expelling it through force of will. Laura, Alice and Gambit manage to escape the laboratory as it collapses and arrange for the children to be given new homes before setting off on their journey again. In the wreckage left behind, Claudine is still barely alive, and is being watched over by the fifth Alice Clone - the new host of Essex.  X-23 and Gambit travel to Madripoor in pursuit of Malcolm Colcord, a man that wants to revive the Weapon X program that created Wolverine. While on the way to Madripoor, X-23 and Gambit help a man from Gambit's past with pirates who are terrorizing the seas near Singapore. They go to confront the pirates at an abandoned environmental research facility. The pirates are torturing a man who spoke to the police. X-23 drowns the pirates' boss and then rescues Gambit from drowning and being eaten by sharks. They leave on a speedboat and discuss what happened, before deciding to just drift for a while.

When X-23 and Gambit arrive in Madripoor, they begin to search for Daken, because he knows where to find Colcord. X-23 spots Daken from a rooftop and she and Gambit leap down to pursue him. X-23 nearly reaches him, but instead rescues a boy who was being kidnapped and kills his would-be kidnappers. Gambit reveals he knows someone in Madripoor who could help them. They find Tyger Tiger and concoct a plan to help rid Madripoor of both Colcord and Daken. The next morning, they fake a confrontation in Tyger Tiger's office, which Daken overhears, as an attempt to draw him out. The plan works, and later that day Daken confronts X-23 and Gambit. X-23 and Daken fight, reaching a stalemate.  X-23 leaves after denying that she needs Daken's help. She and Gambit later interrupt a meeting Daken and Colcord were having, and X-23 tortures Colcord while Gambit and Daken fight. It is revealed that the fight was a ploy to capture X-23 for experimentation. Gambit is knocked unconscious and X-23 is taken captive.  X-23 awakes in a coffin and is mocked by Colcord. Gambit awakes in Tyger Tiger's apartment. A sample of X-23's trigger scent arrives at the facility. Two scientists are preparing to study X-23 by cutting her with a saw, when Daken surreptitiously cuts one of the bands holding one of her wrists in place and leaves the room. X-23 breaks free and kills everyone in the room under the influence of the trigger scent. Daken opens the door and they briefly fight, but Daken drops the file he was holding. The file is the Facility's documentation of X-23's life. She stops to pick it up and asks Daken why he freed her. He explains that, once he knew Colcord was rebuilding the Weapon X program, he knew Colcord would want X-23. He let Colcord capture her to see what he could learn. They banter as they move through the facility and scare off a few scientists. They find a hallway lined with cells, which open and release Colcord's experiments.  After killing the experiments, they go to find Colcord. When they reach Colcord, he reveals there is a bomb in the facility that is set to detonate in a few minutes, destroying everything. They force Colcord to lead them to the bomb, but do not disable it. The bomb detonates, burning X-23 and Daken severely. Gambit and Tyger Tiger wait outside. Gambit moves to confront Daken, but X-23 stops him. X-23 and Gambit leave Madripoor to go to Paris.

X-23 and Gambit travel to Paris after the events of Collision, in pursuit of the person that has bought the Trigger Scent that sends her into a berserk rage, and the DNA of X-23 and Daken. Gambit has discovered that X-23 still causes bodily harm to herself. His paternal instincts cause him to call Wolverine to Paris to help console X-23.  Wolverine arrives at X-23 and Gambit's hotel room, with Jubilee as company, who X-23 nearly attacks because of the scent of a vampire on her. Wolverine and X-23 converse on top of the hotel roof about her mental state and Logan gives her advice about filling her heart with better memories. Gambit questions Wolverine about why he never treated X-23 with the same compassion as Jubilee. Wolverine admits that he did not make the right decisions with X-23 and is going to make attempts to rectify it for both X-23 and Jubilee.  X-23 and Jubilee are walking on the streets of Paris, and are harassed by a group of men. Jubilee manages to get the group to leave them alone. X-23 then slits her own neck, thereby arousing Jubilee's vampire instincts and attempts to gorge her fangs into her.  Jubilee tastes X-23 blood with her tongue and witnesses the violent visions of X-23's memories. This causes Jubilee to fight her temptation and overcome the blood lust.  Jubilee questions X-23 if her offering her blood was a twisted joke and attempts to hit her in anger, but the punch is stopped due to X-23's reflexes. Jubilee explains that despite being a predator, she wants to keep the remaining shards of her humanity intact. She decided to leave Utopia because the people she once considered friends are now afraid of her, to the point of wanting to kill her. X-23 empathizes with her because she was born and raised to be a killer, and murder is the only way she knows she is alive. X-23 left because she could not just become someone new with the others watching and judging. Jubilee questions why X-23 offered her blood, and her reply was to see if Jubilee would give in to her predatory impulses. However it is suggested that there was a hidden agenda in her answer.

Gambit receives a call from a Paris criminal underworld contact about an arms auction in Paris that is selling a trigger scent. Later in the night, X-23, Gambit, Jubilee and Wolverine infiltrate the weapons auction. They are unable to find the woman in charge of the auction. X-23 picks up a scent and runs towards an elevator, and shuts it before Jubilee can get in. A mysterious voice that X-23 recognizes and is a person on her kill list is speaking to her via intercom. The voice says to her that the scent has been upgraded and now anyone can be affected by it, but X-23 rages are special. X-23 becomes affected by the scent as the elevator arrives at a subway. Before X-23 starts killing civilians, Jubilee tries to subdue her, but to no avail, as X-23 attempts to kill her. Jubilee pushes X-23 onto the train tracks just as a subway car is coming towards both of them at full speed.  At the last second, Jubilee leaps and tackles X-23 away from the speeding train. X-23's leg is run over, but she bends it back into position and attempts to continue her assault on Jubilee. Gambit and Wolverine intervene to calm X-23's rage. Wolverine takes the full impact of her blows stating that he is not going to give up on her. Gambit manages to get X-23 to remember who really cares about her. X-23's rage disappears and she apologizes to the group.  While having a dream of a mysterious symbol, Laura wakes up in a cab with Gambit in New York. The two later meet with Cecilia Reyes, as Gambit was bleeding from his groin, and X-23 left him in Cecilia's care while she went to search Alex Cimini for information. After finding him in a lab in the University Physics Department, she leaves. Unknown to her, a bright light appeares in the lab Alex was in. While walking on the street, Laura sees the same symbol from her dream in the sky and on a man. An earthquake follows and the building near her collapses. As Laura was helping an elderly woman come down from a building, Spider-Man appears and helps bring them down. Laura and Spider-Man later see the symbol appearing in the sky at the same time, and they both realize that they have been dreaming of the same symbol. After the two help save civilians from the collapsed building, Laura and Spider-Man are approached by Reed Richards, Susan Storm and Ben Grimm.

The Future Foundation then bring Laura back to the Baxter Building to run some tests and discover that she is emitting the same energy signatures that were responsible for the earthquake. Later, a device shows Reed and Valeria that Laura, Spider-Man and Sue were all emitting the same energy signature. Spider-Man realises that the energy emitting from them is involved with the Uni-Power that changes beings into Captain Universe. While discussing this, Valeria activates the device and Laura, Spider-Man and Sue are transported to an alien world. There they are confronted by monstrous warriors.  The creatures are revealed to be the Whirldemons, creatures imprisoned by Prince Wayfinder, who eventually became the Enigma Force. During her confrontation with the Whirldemon King, Laura learns that the emblem on her hand is a mark associated with the Enigma force. She bonds with the entity a second time to repair the seal preventing the demons from escaping into the world again.  X-23 babysits Reed and Susan's children Franklin and Valeria. She is trying to decide what direction to take in her life.  Valeria and Franklin Richards play with a temporal window, that unleashes a dragon. Hellion appears as all of them are transported to a space junkyard.  Hellion finally kisses X-23 only to be rejected by her saying that she no longer has feelings for him. Jubilee appears to tell her to come back to Utopia so that she can make a decision as to what side of the "schism" she wants to be on.
From X-Man to Avenger

X-23 was asked by Wolverine to join him. She replies by asking if there is any other choice.  While she thinks about what choice she will make, X-23 goes for a walk with Jubilee and asks her why she chose Cyclops' side. Jubilee tells her she chose to stay with Cyclops because, as a vampire, she can hear the heartbeat of everyone around her, and it makes her hungry and wants to eat them. X-23 tells her that she will not hurt them but Jubilee tells her that the urge is there and that she needs to fight as much she needs blood. She cannot be with Wolverine because she is afraid to violate his new philosophy: if you are a kid you do not fight, and he sees her as a kid. Jubilee tells X-23 that Logan sees her the same way, they both agree that it sucks. X-23's phone rings as the others need an answer, but they ignore it and Jubilee tells X-23 to go and have some fun and dance. X-23 explains that she cannot dance, but Jubilee tells her it does not matter because she is hot. X-23 tells her she is not hot. However, as they go, someone follows them. While Jubilee was dancing, X-23 become distracted by looking at someone and recognized him as the person who took over Zebra Daddy's operation. She and Jubilee attack him and his men and take the girl who was with him since she knew where the other girls were and how to free them. As they think about what to do with the girls, because they cannot just call the police, the Black Widow and some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents appear and take the girls to help them. Natasha offers X-23 to come to the Avengers Academy and she accepts. The next day she tells Logan what happened, and Wolverine tells her he is going to miss her and he is sorry he could not do better by her. She tells him she is going to miss him too, then she takes a motorcycle and drives to the Academy.   The Academy sees she does not need any combat training after she fought Tigra. After she introduced herself to the other students, she explained to Mettle the difference between killing an innocent and killing to protect an innocent, telling him that he is not a psycho killer, and that they can talk more about it another time. This makes Hazmat feel jealous.  Finesse became friends with X-23 due to their lack of emotion.  Finesse also stood by X-23 when she opposed the X-Men locking their students on the Academy grounds during Avengers vs. X-Men.   However, their friendship took a turn for the worse when Jeremy Briggs tried to release a superhuman cure. After Briggs took out X-23 and tried to acid burn her, Finesse grabs X-23's arms and fatally stabs Briggs in the radial and femoral arteries, making him bleed to death.  X-23 first thought she killed him, but when she finds out it was Finesse, she was furious. X-23 agrees to keep Finesse's secret, but declares they are no longer friends, upsetting Finesse.

Later, X-23 was part of the students abducted by Arcade.   Arcade turns them loose for 30 days in Murderworld to fight for survival. In a flash forward, it is shown that on the penultimate day, she attacks Hazmat and is badly burned, but the results are unknown as the flash forward then ends.  he Academy students set up camp and face off against the Runaways when Chase is framed, but X-23 is soon separated from Reptil and Hazmat when Arcade covers the group in trigger scent and Reptil evacuates Hazmat. X-23 then finds Justin and helps him strip down his Sentinel.  When Apex kills Justin and takes his Sentinel, X-23 goes to track them and get them back. After nearly being killed by Apex,  Arcade unleashes trigger scent on all of Murderworld to send X-23 in a berserker rage, at which point she injures Hazmat, as seen in the flash forward.  Cullen turns into a giant monster and fights X-23, defeating her and powering her down from her rage.  After that, X-23 continues to injure Hazmat until Anachronism steps in, angry over Nara's death and holding X-23 responsible, attacking X-23 and inadvertently saving Hazmat.  By this point, most of X-23's body is badly burned with radiation, and she is still in this state when the competition ends and Nico, Chase, Cammi, Deathlocket, and Anachronism call Hank Pym, Abigail Brand, Maria Hill, Captain Britain, and Wolverine to pick up the kids. X-23 is loaded onto a SHIELD helicopter and is taken away to parts unknown, ending her affiliation with the Avengers Academy.
Becoming the Wolverine

Unlike the other Arena survivors, X-23 did not join the group in infiltrating the Masters of Evil.  X-23 is found amnesiac and being hunted by the Purifiers, by Kitty Pryde and the time-displaced original X-Men.  After being found by Kitty, Laura was taken to their base to recover. When Laura wakes up, with her memories now returning, at the former Weapon X facility she immediately tries to escape. Teen Cyclops goes to talk to her, while he's gone Teen Jean mentions to the team that Teen Cyclops "fancies" Laura. As Laura makes it outside she's met by Teen Cyclops, who was waiting for her. Teen Cyclops tries to calm her down but Laura only ceases hostility after getting Teen Cyclops scent and figuring out that Teen Cyclops is who he says he is.  The two talk, with X-23 telling him that she doesn't want to talk about her past or what happened to her. Suddenly Teen Cyclops awkwardly hugs her, when she was distracted and looking sad, because he thought she needed a hug. Laura tells him that she doesn't do hugs, especially not with an audience as Kitty, Teen Jean, and Teen Beast were watching them. Teen Jean expressed a very conflicted look upon her face due to the hug and having read part of Laura's mind, thus she knows what happened in Avengers Arena. Laura thanks them for helping her and suggests they take the fight to the Purifiers, but in order for her to track them down, they'll have to return her to where they found her.  Upon finding the Purifier base they immediately set out to attack them. However, the fight doesn't go well and the entire team is knocked unconscious by Stryker Jr. when Teen Jean learns too late that Stryker Jr. has powers of his own.  X-23 is also with the All-New X-Men when Teen Jean is abducted by the Shi'ar and the X-Men team up with the Guardians of the Galaxy to save her.   Later, she is attacked by Raze, who disguises himself as her to infiltrate Cyclops's base.  She subsequently begins to date the younger Angel, and meets Jimmy Hudson—the son of the Wolverine of the Ultimate Marvel universe—when the team are transferred into the Ultimate Universe by accident.

News of Logan's death reached Laura.  Angry and upset, and questioning her role in life now that the man she looked to most for guidance was gone, she departed the X-Men to do some soul-searching. Laura ended up in a nightclub blowing off steam and was in the midst of being propositioned (and mostly politely telling the John that though she did once sell her body, this was no longer the case) when the club was attacked by a gang of disaffected youths calling themselves the Happy Clams. Laura immediately sprung into action to fight them off, and her willingness to use lethal force put her temporarily at odds with another hero come to disrupt the attack named Chinook, who prevented her from killing the leader of the group. He did, however, help her escape the site of the battle once the police arrived and brought her to his safehouse, where he revealed he already knew who she was, and his own identity: former Alpha Flight member Colin Hume.  Hume revealed that after being depowered during M-Day he was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and decided he would rather continue fighting and making a difference. He tells her about the importance of colors and symbols, and how putting on his costume has meaning to people beyond just his actions. Laura then agreed to assist him in an attack on Pink Pearl, who was organizing the Clams. Afterwards she returned to the X-Men, revealing she had taken her talk with Hume to heart; in honor of Logan she had dyed the forelocks of her hair blue and gold, and remarked to Kitty that she not longer felt angry about Wolverine's death, just sad, but that she has also found a source of pride in their relationship.  Sometime later Laura was captured at the orders of a mysterious masked individual who had also kidnapped Daken, Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike, Mystique and Elixir. He revealed that Dr. Cornelius of the Weapon X project had captured them all at some point in the past and implanted several trigger words into them that would allow them to be controlled or killed at a word. Their captor offered to assist them in escaping Cornelius's control on condition that they assist him with a particular task which also concerned them greatly. If they refuse, he would use the trigger word to kill them.

She and Warren wind up in Paris, where Laura is shot foiling a sniper hit, though her healing factor was restored sometime in the eight months following the Incursions. After regaining consciousness, Laura reveals that she has taken up the Wolverine name following Logan's death, and stops the Predator drone the masked assassin used as her insurance plan. The woman chose to commit suicide rather than face capture, and upon removing the mask Laura confirmed the woman was her clone. She noted that there were others, and resolved to go after the organization responsible to stop and save the girls.

Give us time woman!

So some quick questions about this group game, how will plot work? Will there be over arching plots that large groups of people can get involved in? (I'm assume if so it involves Doom) Would you encourage players to maybe create their own smaller ones? Say they want to tangle with a villain and wouldn't mind some help, therefore allowing folks to build up meaningful one on one interaction, I'm curious because there is a wide spectrum of characters offered how will they all come together?

Darthvegeta800

I got invited over to play Doom. I should soon put up a bio for him.
A little brainstorm may be needed by pm in regards what you as GM want for the rp 'main story-wise'.

VoluptuousVixen

I also reserved Iron Man for you Darth as well as Dr Doom

Garuss Vakarian

Wow Silk, your a very thoughtful person. Good job thinking of Vageta. ^^

Any way, I will be done with mine some time after a few hours. So no worries! :D

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Wade Wilson
Alias: Deadpool
Age: 34
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In:


== Physical Description == 
Deadpool is often depicted as a well toned hero, however still sleek and athletic to reflect his more dextrous aproach to combat. (Duel wielding pistols, using swords, lots of acrobatics. ETC.) He rarely takes off his suit, or his mask especially. For good reason, he has a sort of complexion issue... Rarely have women looked past this. But Wades cancer rapidly continued to attack his cells after he was giving his healing factor. He just heals so fast it can not kill him. But as a result, his skin is quite scarred. The best description of i being, like a man healing from deep burns. In some cases he is depicted as more of a walking corps, but for the sake of this rp he is simply scarred all over, with a burned like complexion.

== Persona ==           
Do I have to say it?... "Yes." Uuuuuugh......Fine! Dead pool is the king of extreme, The sexiest stud their ever lived. nobody can live up to his snarky, comedic epicness. All women want him and are to afraid of his amazingness to allow him to court them, and all men wish they can live up to an ounce of his ubbernes..... That good? "Less enthusiastic then I had hoped but ya. ^^ " Good, because that is a load of horshit you pea brained, horny, perverted, insane mess of a human being. ".... Harsh. But all these things are true. Good and bad. Thank you narrator." Oh.... Well you took that ver- "Dont push your luck. I know where you sleep.... And I don't need sleeep...Soooo... Remember that."

Wade is a deeply troubled man, but has a heart. He is goofy, outrageous and not all to good with the ladies. (Not that that stops him.)  He has shown time and time again he is a hero some where deep within. He just wears greed, and selfishness like a mask. Possibly to hide from his own personal loss, emotional need for love as well as a deep shyness over his new found... Looks. If one earns his love, trust and friendship they will quickly learn he is loyal and thoughtful towards them, even if he is wild and annoying. Further, if he romantically wants you, he has proven to be clingy and protective. However, never truly possessive. The kind of guy to sit out his girls window while she slept, because he cares!... And lacks the need to sleep himself.


== Key Skills ==
"Wolvering's healing factor. A teleportation device on my belt. And a holographic thingy ma...gigur.... Uh... It helps me look like other people. ^^ . Lastly I am immortal! Uh... Long story. But simply, I had a thing with lady death. Back at the hospice, I had hallucinations... Seeing her. A lady, with a skull for a face! Oh... But dont worry, she has a 100% super model bod! I digress. She tried getting me to die, time and time again. Each time failing. She eventually got board and stopped visiting me. But Many times I was in near death, every time. Seeing her once more... Talking to her... Lady death. The gal of my dreams! She actually liked me. Found me charming. And most of all didnt find me disgusting! Dam was she a hotty! But, sadly. The day I died... The day I could finally find peace and be with her. That dam Thanos cursed me. You see, he has this... Uh ... Crazy stalker obsession with her. Like... The kind that gets you to kill whole galaxy's just to get her to turn your way. So He brought me back to life out of jealousy, and cursed me to immortality. In his mind only he can have her.... Guy is such a dick!"

== Advantages ==
Wade has a complete disengagement with reality which serves as a detriment to himself and others, but often can lead him to outrageous fortune. Good, or bad... Depends on lady lucks mood.  However, this is an advantage to him, because his psychosis, mixed with the immortality complex of his healing allows him to take more risks then the typical hero. The phrase zero fucks given would be an apt way of putting it. Further, he is an out of the box thinker, not often is his solutions to a problem the best one can make but hey... As long as the wall's out of the way.... Who cares if he also brought half the building down... Right?

== Disadvantages ==  "Everyone hates our guts." "W-What ha ha. Me? Naaaa. Everyone loves me!!!" ".... The poor delusions of a delusional mind..." "Oh! We are also nuts!" "Hey, stop it me!" "We are also incurably unhinged from reality." "Wow... You guys hurt my feelings... I guess this is what they mean when they say your your own worst enemy. Ha ha." "Oh, dont even get me started on whats behind that mask of ours!"

Note: His greatest strength is also his greatest weakness. His complete disengagement from reality is the source of many of his greatest triumphs, as well as the reason behind his many faults and failures. As an example of it's many benefits, he is so crazy and disengaged from reality, the Taskmaster can not read his moves properly and therefor can not learn how to truly defeat Wade. As an example of it disadvantaging him, he can easily find himself distracted without a helping hand to pull him by the collar and point him foreword. All and all Wade is a problem character, but one that is a hero, who is good in the end of the day and knows whats at stake.

== Background ==
Wade Wilson's early life is mostly unknown. His mother died of cancer while he was young and his father (who was in the military) was physically abusive. Wade was a delinquent in his teenage years, possibly to spite his father. Following a brief stint of military service, Wade began his mercenary career while still in his late teens. Accepting assassination jobs only against those whom he felt deserved death, he made a habit of using plastic surgery and technology to take on a new identity whenever he failed an assignment.

He led a good career for a time. But soon began to succumb to a tragic illness. ... Cancer. A cruel twist of fate... The same thing that killed his mother. Fighting said fate, he joined a sub set of the Weapon x program. That was seeking to give humans mutant powers. for the promise it would cure him of his deathly desease. He was put into severe scientific procedures, This particular case, was to give the subject wolverine's healing factor. But an undesirable result occurred. His cancer accelerated. Leaving his body scarred, and deformed. And the severe pain, and agony of the procedure. On top of his discovery of being severely deformed. resulted in his mind shattering. Leaving him insane, and mentally unstable. Given these exact word's. "None of this is actually happening!...There is a man... At a typewriter...This is all his twisted imagination!" Hence the beginning of his tendency to break the forth wall. "Youd think these comic book writers will lend me some super strength. Ah well, hopefully when I get my own game they remedy that! Wait I have one.... They diddnt! THOSE BASTARDS! Ah well. I can always try for super speed."

With His now deformed body, on top of his new found mental state. Gave the doctors no choice but to dub him a failure and was there by placed in a hospice to die along side fellow failed experiments. While there, he made a few friends, and enemies. And, was placed in a small betting pool around the hospice referred to as a Dead pool.  A pool as to how long each subject would live. He is sentenced to death, after killing one of his friends, Worm. He did so only out of mercy, after Worm was lobotomized. He soon escaped, and ever since. Adorned his now iconic costume. Taking the name 'Deadpool.' As an ironic joke to the pool made to discern how quickly he would die.

Most of the time when I play a group rp it doesn't seem to last long but I may as well give this one a try. Do you take only cannon characters or do you take OC's as well? I know only some of the marvel characters by movies and tv shows, I may have looked at a few of the comix but that is about it though.

Question----are ALL the unlisted characters dead?

Kalive

Alright, here is two ideas of characters I have in mind but for now only want to play one of them and I need some help on their powers so I don't make them over powered if that make sense? That and would like all or your opinions of which would be more interesting for this rp.

My first idea is a mutant who have powers that is the same as "The Mask" played by Jim Carrey. Though not sure what to call the power or what it be considered other then power of toons which could be godly if used right. The weakness I thought of is that he needs to use his own blood in order to use his powers so the bigger the power use the more blood he use which could kill him. However if you guys thing that is a bit much I could change the weakness or how strong that type of power could be.

My second Idea is he would be a bio android who was made to be the perfect weapon against the mutants much like by using the data from the weapon x program and Deadpool. One of his main ability's is to a damping field that could cancels mutant powers while in the field. Implants that have the same effect as magneto's helmet which pervent telepathy's from doing anything to his mind or body and a few mutant powers in which only he could use while in the damping field. Would this be too powerful for a Character and if given mutant powers how many would be aloud?

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Kurt Wagner
Alias: Nightcrawler
Age: 32
Sexuality: Straight
Part of New York Residing In: Homeless

== Physical Description == 



Nightcrawler is obviously a mutant. Blue skin, pointed ears, a prehensile tail, claws, two fingers... even the most concealing clothing won't prevent him from being noticed. His teeth are pointed, and iridescent eyes mean that it is impossible to look at him and see anything but a mutant... or a demon. Under all that, he is a rather thin man, with dark hair, and a rather serious... but at the same time giddy air.

== Persona ==           

Kurt is a study in contrasts. He is a devoutly religious young man, attending mass at a catholic church every friday. At times, he attends in secret, teleporting to some place where he can watch, take part, and yet not be seen. He has accepted certain realities of his existence. He's admitted that he can't get a meal, or rent a home, or many of such kinds of things. That's the hand the god has dealt him. Nevertheless, he is very conscientious about paying. For instance, when he steals food, he will always leave behind the price of the meal, plus a little extra, along with a note explaining himself. This doesn't satisfy many people, but he still does it.

Despite this, Kurt is a thrill seeker. He loves challenges, and exciting adventures. He has a habit of trying to be a vigilante, usually ending up with villain and victim being terrified of him. He's fond of pranks and jokes, particularly on those he views as taking themselves to seriously. He is the kind of person that at times plays the game of love for the chase as much as the reward. This contrasts with his faith, but Kurt has long since accepted that his life will require compromises in that area. He just trusts god has a plan for him, and has decided to be the best hero, and enjoy the heck out of his life while he waits for it to develop.

== Key Skills ==

1) Kurt is a trained acrobat, and capable of feats of such that astound.
2) He's skilled with his hands, capable of displays of legerdemain that astound without any use of his powers. Additionally, he's a talent juggler, and if he wished, could be a very talented pick pocket.
3) Kurt is very stealthy when he wishes to be, capable of moving silently from place to place.
4) Kurt is, oddly enough, an expert fencer. Were he to be allowed to compete, he could likely do so at an olympic level, though that is partially his natural agility.

== Advantages ==

1) Teleportation: Kurt's primary advantage is, of course, his teleportation. He is capable of moving from one place to another in a blink of an eye, vanishing with nothing but the scent of brimstone and the loud bamf to say he was there. Kurt is unsure of the maximum distance he can teleport. He has gone 2 miles before, though doing so leaves him completely exhausted. He has a limited ability to determine if an area he is about to enter has a solid object present, so as to avoid teleporting himself into a wall. He can only teleport with a limited amount of things. A single person doesn't exhaust him anymore, if they are on the lighter side, and he doesn't have to go that far.
2) Concealment: Nightcrawler is capable of deflecting light from himself. Along with his dark fur, this makes him almost completely invisible in darkness. If he wishes to, he can ensure that nothing of his features is visible, even on the sunniest day, but doing so is rather obvious.
3) Prehensile Tail: Nightcralwer's tail is extremely agile and strong, capable of lifting an individual in it. He's actually determined he can even fence with it... largely for the hell of it.
4) Night Vision: Nightcrawler is able to see in any light at all. The blackest night is little difficulty for him.
5) Agility: Kurt is extraordinary agile. His body lets him perform feats of agility that would be impossible. His spine is incredibly flexible, allowing him to bend freely in flight.
6) Linguistics: Due to his life, Kurt speaks German, English, French, and Italian fluently.

== Disadvantages == 

1) Obvious Mutant: Kurt is what he is. He is mutant that looks like a demon. This has obvious implications.
2) Chivalrous nature: Kurt is a believer in old school chivalry. He holds doors open for women, and naturally pays for the check. He also won't hit a woman under normal circumstances, and may be easily manipulated by one.
3) Human: For all his abilities, Kurt is a human. If he is shot, he will die. He can get sick. He can have bones broken and shattered. He isn't remarkably strong.

== Background ==

Kurt has no idea who his biological parents are. It doesn't really bother him. He's content with his adoptive family, a group of circus performers. The found him as a babe (an obviously mutant) in the stables one morning. No explanation was ever found, and they took him under their wing. He was raised by the circuses trapeze artists, though the entire circus helped how they could. It was there he got both his thrill seeking life style, and his devout faith. Kurt learned a number of skills there, juggling, acrobatics, stage magic, talents abounding. He was introduced to the performance slowly, as it was determined that he was talented. As he slipped into the role, he revealed just how skilled he was. He soon became the star attraction, audiences assuming his appearance was just a costume. However, one evening that changed.

Kurt got... friendly, with a girl who came to see him after the show. She quickly realized just who he was, and... things deteriorated. The circus tried to get him to come with them as they packed up, but Kurt refused. If they ran off, they'd have to leave everything behind. The circus would be bankrupt. He would have destroyed his families livelihood. Instead, Kurt lead the people with the torches and pitchforks (figuratively) away, dashing across the landscape. He got backed against a cliff and forced off it... teleporting for the first time just before he hit the bottom. That was the first time. Kurt didn't return to the circus, instead taking off across Europe. Wandering. He adopted a vigilante like attitude, calling himself Nightcrawler as he stopped muggings and the like. Mostly for the hell of it. It didn't end well. Of late, he's heard of a place for mutants... a school. Having no other ideas, he elected to get on a transatlantic flight (not exactly hard for someone who can teleport aboard the plane.) He's arrived in New York, largely broke, and has set out to learn if this place is legit.

Gambit (Remy LeBeau)
== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Remy Etienne LeBeau
Alias: Gambit
Age: 30
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In: Nowhere Permanent

== Physical Description == 

Gambit is a fairly tall man, standing at 6'2" in height. Weighing about 170 lbs., he has a strong and toned, medium build, more suited for acrobatics and quick movement and combat than pure strength. Auburn hair is kept relatively short, never falling longer than his jawline, though his most noticeable feature is the odd color of his eyes--his iris are red, and glow when he uses his powers, framed by black scelera.

He typically wears a long brown trench coat over a kevlar-laced, dark purple top, finger-less gloves, with dark pants and boots. Several decks of cards are on him almost at all times, as well as a collapsible bo staff. And, of course, typical tools of a thief's trade, such as lock picks.

== Persona ==           

== Key Skills ==

  • Energy Manipulation - Remy has the power to take the potential energy stored in an object and convert it to kinetic energy thus “charging” that item with explosive results. He prefers to charge smaller objects, such as his ever-present playing cards, as the time required to charge them is greatly reduced and they are much easier for him to throw. The only real limitation to this ability is the time required to charge the object. The larger it is the more time it takes. He can charge a rock as big as a small house in the matter of seconds. Most charging takes place through direct skin contact. The power of his explosions is dependent on the mass of the object he is charging, for example, a charged playing card explodes with the force of a grenade. Gambit can also use his powers to accelerate an object's kinetic energy instead of converting its potential energy, for example, he can charge his bo staff with enough power to level a house. His ability also allowed him to affect his own capability to heal but this is rarely seen, he's also used his power to accelerate organic material on a few occasions either causing them to explode or enhancing their own physical capabilities. These powers have been augmented to enable him to accelerate his own regeneration process and better control his kinetic shifting.
--Cutting Ability - Charged objects can also have a razor edge emitting an energized flow that can slice through objects or work like an explosive cookie cutter by energizing around wherever Gambit wishes and having it explode harmlessly.
--Dissolution - Gambit can also cause objects to pull themselves apart instead of exploding violently making them harmlessly melt down to nothing. Once having focused charging on dissolving shrapnel in a victims stomach and at times when jumpstarted able to overcharge falling debris from crumbling buildings. His control ,over this has increased to the point he can shatter ice he was encased in without blowing up.
--Disruption - Gambit can tame his explosive acceleration to temporarily scramble a persons sensory awareness knocking them out cold.
--Enhanced Conditioning - Gambit's ability to tap energy also grants him superhuman speed, strength, reflexes and reactions, flexibility, dexterity, coordination, balance, and endurance via charging himself. Bestowing him an added edge he has used to his advantage by developing a unique acrobatic fighting style. He can also augment others through this.
--Accelerated Healing - Gambit has affected his own recovery through this process having once healed after removing a piece of rebar lodged in his chest and once his eyes were damaged by a charged card exploding in his face, he was able to restore his sight.
--Static Interference - Creates natural static, because of the charged potential energy always in his body, that shields his mind from intrusion by telepaths. Can increase the effect by holding a charged object near his head. Although reportedly uncomfortable for the parties involved, this shield does not totally prevent telepathic invasion.
--Vibration Emission - Gambit, through the kinetic acceleration instead of conversion can emit a shockwave accompanying a bright flashbang which leaves a sizable crater in the ground.
  • Hypnotic Charm: Subliminal psionic talent channeled through his voice that allows a subtle influence over any sentient mind. This power allows Gambit to compel others to believe what he says and agree with anything he suggests. More powerful minds have proven immune to Gambit's charm, and people who are consciously aware of what he's doing can shake off the effects.
  • Multilingual
  • Expert Marksman
  • Master Combatant: Though not on the same level as the likes of Captain America, he is still a profound fighter, often employing martial arts, street fighting, and acrobatics. He is well adept in the martial arts Savate (French kickboxing), and Bojutsu, the art of using a Bo staff. Nick Fury even referred to Gambit as "One of the best hand to hand fighters I've ever seen".

== Advantages ==

With his peak physical condition and training, and especially when aided by his mutant abilities, Gambit is a powerful combatant and is able to hold his own against all but the most powerful of foes. As a master thief there are few places he can't get into (or out of), and his underworld connections gained and cultivated over the years have given him resources to learn just about anything he needs to know. His grooming to be the leader of the Thieves' Guild also left him with respectable planning and strategic thinking abilities, and can lead if the role is pushed open him--his skills are better used to test and find the weaknesses in a proper leader's plan, however.

And, of course, considering his natural roguish charm and Cajun accent, Gambit has rarely had a hard time in getting what he wants.

== Disadvantages == 

He is only human. Despite the increased healing abilities his powers can offer, it is nothing compared to those such as Wolverine or Deadpool, and most things that would kill a normal man will kill him as well. The lingering effects of serving as Death also still haunt him, with his Death persona able to reassert itself in moment of weakness and extreme stress.

== Background ==

The History of Gambit
Remy Etienne LeBeau was born in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was kidnapped from the hospital where he was born, then raised by the LeBeau Clan Thieves' Guild, and given to the Antiquary as a tribute.

They referred to the child as "Le Diable Blanc" ("the White Devil") and believed he was prophesied to unite the warring Thieves' and Assassins' Guilds. Soon after, Remy was placed in the care of Fagan's Mob, a gang of street thieves who raised the child and taught him the ways of thievery. After living as an orphan on the streets, a 10-year-old Remy attempted to pick the pocket of Jean-Luc LeBeau, then patriarch of the Thieves' Guild. Jean-Luc took the boy off the streets and adopted him into his own family.

Remy's bio-kinetic charging abilities manifested early in his teens, although he kept his powers secret from his family and friends, practicing his powers away from prying eyes. When he was 15, he accompanied his cousin Etienne Marceaux on his "Tithing," the ritual initiation test of the Thieves' Guild. However, it went awry as they were assigned to steal from the powerful immortal mutant Candra, who quickly captured them. Candra recognized Remy from an encounter that had taken place in her past but in his future (due to a time travel mission to the 19th Century Remy would take as an adult) and sold them to the deformed mutant gangster and child slave trader known as the Pig, who planned to sell them and others their age to HYDRA as boy soldiers. Remy used his powers to escape their holding pen, but the physically enhanced Pig quickly caught up to them. Remy discovered his signature attack when he picked up a playing card that Etienne had dropped, charged it, and threw it in the Pig's face, taking out his eye. Finally escaping his cliff top headquarters by diving into the sea, Remy was ultimately rescued by the Guild; Etienne drowned.

Later during his teen years, Remy was first hired by Mr. Sinister, then in disguise of Dr. Nathaniel Essex. Essex wanted his stolen diaries back from the Weapon X program. Remy and the Thieves' Guild accepted the mission and sent out Remy to retrieve said diaries. Standing in the cold, scouting the Weapon X facility, Remy couldn't bear the cold and swore he would steal a long, stylish jacket in New Orleans after the mission, which he did. Upon entering the facility, Remy witnessed Wolverine escaping from his adamantium procedure and found the diaries. However, deeming them to be too dangerous for Essex to have them, as Remy didn't fully trust him, Remy burned the diaries. He headed back home, only to find a disappointed Thieves' Guild and Essex.

In an attempt to reconcile the Thieves' and Assassins' Guilds, Remy married Bella Donna Boudreaux, granddaughter of the head Assassin, whom he met at the age of eight. Unfortunately, he was challenged by her brother Julien to a duel after the wedding. In the duel, Gambit killed Julien, and he was exiled from the city, ending his romantic relationship with Bella Donna.

After his exile from New Orleans, he wandered the world and became a master professional thief, making many contacts (and quite a few enemies). During this period, Gambit found he had an uncontrollable amount of energy flowing through him, to the point that he could not withstand it. Desperate, Gambit went to Mister Sinister for help. Sinister modified Gambit's power by removing a portion of Gambit's brain stem, making him significantly less powerful, but able to control the still considerably large amount of power in him. Years later, a much-younger version of Mister Sinister surgically returned it, upon Gambit's request, when Gambit time-traveled to the 19th century.

However, Sinister wanted the favor returned, so Gambit carried out various missions for him. For the last of these operations, Gambit gathered together a group of mercenaries which Sinister named the Marauders. Gambit was then ordered to lead the Marauders into the tunnels under New York City. He led Sabretooth, Blockbuster, Prism, and Riptide there while — unknown to Gambit — Scalphunter, Arclight, Harpoon, Malice, Scrambler, and Vertigo followed the Morlock Tommy into the tunnels. Their goal was to wipe out the Morlocks. Gambit was unable to prevent the Marauders from killing a considerable number of Morlocks, but he was able to save one, a child. Her name was Sarah, and she would grow up to be Marrow, the leader of the mutant terrorist group Gene Nation. Gambit long kept his involvement in the mission a secret from his fellow X-Men, much to their eventual displeasure.

After wandering around the world, he encountered a de-aged and powerless Storm, and helped her escape from the Shadow King.[1] He then rescued her from Nanny and the Orphan-Maker, helping her battle them. Afterwards, the young amnesiac Storm, who had reverted to thieving to stay alive, joined Gambit, and she eventually brought him back to the X-Men. Soon after, Gambit helped the X-Men, X-Factor, and New Mutants battle the Genoshans. Only Wolverine expressed his doubts about the Cajun, which led to a Danger Room duel between the two. Gambit was able to triumph by using a robotic doppelganger of Lady Deathstrike to distract Wolverine, while taking advantage of Wolverine's injuries, inflicted by the Reavers. Gambit and the X-Men were then taken to the Shi'ar galaxy by Lila Cheney. Alongside the X-Men and Starjammers, Gambit battled Deathbird, the Imperial Guard, and a band of Warskrulls. Upon their return to Earth, Gambit assisted the X-Men and X-Factor in battling the Shadow King, though he was temporarily controlled by the Shadow King.

When the original five X-Men rejoined and the team was divided into two squads, Gambit became part of the Blue team under Cyclops' leadership. Alongside the X-Men, he battled Magneto and his newly formed Acolytes, Fenris, the Hand, Omega Red, and Sabretooth, and then Mojo. Gambit then fought Bishop and was attacked by his estranged wife Bella Donna. Gambit recounted how he had fled from New Orleans after killing his brother-in-law in self-defense. Alongside the X-Men, Gambit first encountered the second Ghost Rider. Gambit battled the Brood Queen and the Brood-possessed Ghost Rider, and witnessed the apparent death of his now ex-wife, Bella Donna.

Gambit became romantically interested in one of his teammates, Rogue, and started flirting with her. Despite her off-putting manner and the obstacle of her uncontrollable mutant ability that prevented anyone from touching her, he began romancing and seducing Rogue. Their strong romantic relationship was originally written as a one time, flirtatious moment; ironically, their romantic relationship is listed as one of the longest and most popular on-going deep and close romantic relationships in the X-Men series, probably only second to Jean Grey and Cyclops. Although their early "courtship" portrayed him as very "devil may care" in his flirtation with her, later issues revealed that, beneath his bravado and swagger, he truly had genuine romantic feelings for her. Similarly, despite her initial aggressive rejection of his advances, Rogue found that she was not only flattered by his attention, but that she felt equally romantically attracted to him.

Many publishing years later, it had become apparent Remy had a dark secret. Sabretooth had hinted to it on numerous occasions during his "residency" at the X-Mansion, prompting Rogue to ask him to reveal whatever he knew about Gambit's past. Remy was captured and brought before a mock trial held by Magneto, the mutant Master of Magnetism, then disguised as Erik the Red. Rogue was forced to kiss him again, revealing that he had assembled the team of Marauders for Mr. Sinister that later killed most of the Morlocks. However it was also revealed that Gambit saved a single girl from the Marauders during the massacre. This apparent revelation and absorbing Gambit's own guilty memories caused Rogue to reject him. Gambit was similarly cast out of the X-Men and was abandoned in the frozen wastes of Antarctica.

Starving, and haunted by the betrayal of his lover, Gambit made his way back into Magneto's citadel, where he encountered the psionic essence of a dead mutant named Mary Purcell. The wraith-like Mary bonded with him, allowing him to survive until he reached the Savage Land, a hidden jungle nestled in the icy wasteland. There, Remy struck a deal with an enigmatic being known as the New Son. In exchange for passage back to America, Gambit agreed to run errands with the help of friend Jacob Gavin Jr. During this period, Remy's command over his abilities strengthened and amplified significantly.

When Gambit's psyche absorption had worn off, Rogue spent months searching for him, to no avail. Gambit encountered Storm and Shadowcat when he attempted to steal the fabled Crimson Gem of Cyttorak for his new employer. He agreed to return to the X-Men, mainly for his self-respect and for Rogue. At one point, he became the field leader of a branch of X-Men. His romantic love for Rogue was still intact, but her inability to control her powers made her break it off out of fear of hurting him.

Meanwhile, the New Son revealed his true identity as an alternate universe version of Gambit himself, after organizing an assassination game for a cadre of superpowered mercenaries with Remy as the target. During the final confrontation, Gambit burned out his enhanced abilities, thus returning to his original level of power.

In Bishop's future timeline, Bishop stumbles upon a video from the past with Jean Grey making a frantic call to any X-Men she can find. She says that the X-Men have been betrayed by "one of their own" and it appears in the video that she is the last one left and is killed in the video. Disturbed by this, Bishop seeks "The Witness", a man who is said to be the last person who has ever seen the X-Men of the past alive. He enters a citadel of sorts where he confronts an old and withered but plucky man with long gray hair sitting on a throne, with two blonde women to either side of him. When Bishop confronts him as to who killed the X-Men the Witness acts as though he knows, but refuses to tell and Bishop is thrown out of the citadel.

When Bishop comes to the X-Men in their original timeline, he meets Gambit and is sure that he is the same old man in Bishop's future and that it was Gambit who was the "Traitor" that killed the X-Men. For some time, he continues to watch Gambit's every step until he is finally convinced some time later that Gambit was not the Traitor (with Onslaught being revealed to be the traitor).

When Storm leads a team of X-Men in search of Destiny's diaries, the thirteen-volume Books of Truth, Gambit volunteered to join them, but Rogue — afraid that her increasingly uncontrolled powers would bring him harm — flatly refused to allow him along. He returned to thievery instead, and was soon after framed by mutant businessman Sebastian Shaw for the death of the Australian crime lord named Viceroy. With the assistance of Rogue, Storm's team of X-Treme X-Men, and former Triad member Red Lotus, Gambit was able to clear his name. Soon after, Remy became embroiled in the X-Men's fight against an alien invasion of Earth led by the interdimensional warlord Khan, after trying to assemble the "Madripoor Set," a group of seven gems.

The X-Treme team's enemy, the enhanced human named Vargas, used the invasion as a chance to attempt to kill more of Storm's team, going after Rogue and Gambit. Rogue tried to shield Remy against Vargas' sword, but he impaled them both as a reward for her fidelity. Both Rogue and Gambit survived, but lost their mutant abilities for a time. As a result, the couple sought to live a normal life and sort out their romantic relationship, retiring from the X-Men temporarily.

Gambit and Rogue rejoined the X-Men soon after Sage jump-started their powers, and they were placed on Havok's team. In their first mission back, Gambit was temporarily blinded by one of his energized cards that went off by his face. Rogue tried to console Gambit during his recovery, but their romantic relationship became strained once more as he became more and more frustrated with his blindness and their lack of touch after Rogue's powers returned. He started lashing out at Rogue, most of the time verbally. As a result, Rogue took some time away from Gambit. While he lost his vision, Gambit developed an ability to read his playing cards like they were tarot cards and he was able to predict the attack by the Brotherhood. A little while later, during Christmas celebrations, Rogue asked Sage to once again jump start Gambit's powers, in the process, healing his vision.

During the story arc with Golgotha, Gambit revealed some deep insecurities he had about his romantic relationship with Rogue, saying that "Maybe dis no-touching thing is getting to me... more den I thought". He also told Rogue that she should just get together with Logan, thinking that there was a hidden attraction between the two. As a result of the accusation, Logan kissed Rogue, but she broke it off before it caused any major damage. Gambit then began to realize what he was saying, questioning his romantic love for Rogue, but soon after began to suffer from hallucinations that he was fighting Mister Sinister. However, Rogue and Gambit soon realized that Golgotha made them say things they did not mean and before the final battle, they "kissed" through their space suit helmets.

Once back at the mansion, Gambit and Rogue moved into the same room to try rebuilding some intimacy, and began telepathic therapy with Emma Frost. They soon found out that with all the emotional baggage going on in their minds, they were still unable to make physical contact mentally. This would cause even more strain when the new student, Foxx, joins Gambit's team and attempts to seduce him.

Rogue's foster mother Mystique was displeased with Rogue's choice of lovers and infiltrated Xavier's Institute by shapeshifting into a student called Foxx. She joined Gambit's squad in an attempt to ruin his relationship with Rogue. After Gambit resisted her charms, Mystique reverted to her true form and then offered Gambit something significantly more difficult to refuse: she transformed into Rogue and offered Gambit a Rogue with whom he could have a physical relationship, claiming that she was only trying to help relieve the increasing frustrations between the two lovers; "... if one of you could have some physical release...". Rogue eventually discovered her mother's presence in the school and that Gambit knew she was there. To date, Gambit denies that he slept with Mystique.

Upon the return of Apocalypse, Gambit submitted himself to the villain and was transformed into one of Apocalypse's Horsemen, Death. Gambit intended to infiltrate himself into Apocalypse's ranks in order to protect the X-Men from the Dark Lord's eventual betrayal, but he miscalculated, as the transformation process warped his mind as well as his body. After becoming Death, Gambit's hair turned white and his skin turned deep black. Despite having his mind and body twisted, Gambit retained a large portion of his former self, stating to Apocalypse, "I'm both Death and Gambit", and he also remembered his love for Rogue as he could not bring himself to kill her. Gambit and Sunfire then returned to the Xavier Institute to claim Polaris and free her. Gambit, in an attempt to free all ties with his old self, tried to kill Rogue and would have been successful had it not been for Pulse neutralizing Gambit's powers.

After the X-Men defeated Apocalypse, Sunfire left with Gambit to help him clear Apocalypse's brainwashing and live as entirely new beings, only to then be approached by Mister Sinister.

Gambit returned to his original appearance and powers (presumably with the aid of Mr. Sinister) and reemerged as a member of the Marauders, under Sinister's sway. On a mission for Mr. Sinister (involving obtaining knowledge of the future) Gambit and Sunfire encountered Cable on the recently evacuated island of Providence. Before the fight Gambit said, "I dropped that whole new look, wit' the help of a friend." He then asked Cable for use of his super-computer to answer a question referring to the phrase "one minute before dawn.". As a result, Gambit and Sunfire attacked him eventually forcing Cable to activate a self-destruct sequence destroying the entire island. Gambit and Sunfire escaped empty handed.

During the fight, Cable noted that Gambit's accent sounded 'forced' either for comic effect or perhaps to indicate that things may not be as 'back to normal' as they seem with Gambit. As Gambit returned to Mr. Sinister's base to discuss the next step of the plan, he reprimanded Mystique for shooting Rogue when they abducted her, being placated only by Mr. Sinister's assurance that Rogue was still needed and would survive. In a recent confrontation with Cannonball and Iceman, he seemed to sympathize with a beaten Cannonball. He interfered when Scalphunter was about to kill Cannonball by attacking Cannonball and by his actions he was able to save Cannonball from certain death. At the same time, he also destroyed Destiny's diaries, preventing Sinister and the Marauders from getting them.

Gambit would later be personally targeted by Wolverine during the X-Men's assault on Mister Sinister's Antarctic base. After being tortured by the Canadian mutant, Gambit reveals that Cable has the baby before Sinister manages to regain the advantage and drive the X-Men off with Gambit later revealed not to be harmed. Later, as Bishop attempts to kill the baby (after immobilizing Cable), Gambit and several of the Marauders quickly stop him with Gambit bringing a section of the ceiling down on Bishop. Knowing the X-Men will arrive in moments, the Marauders depart with the baby, but not before Gambit ponders what could make Bishop turn on the X-Men.

Tracking Gambit using Cerebro, the X-Men find that the Marauders' hideout was on Muir Island. However, what they didn't know is that Gambit let them track him. It appears that Gambit, along with Mystique, have plans of their own for the newborn mutant as evidenced by his lack of surprise when he delivered the baby to Sinister, who then reveals himself to be Mystique as the real Sinister lies on the floor with shock etched into his face, and the fact that Mystique told Gambit that it is time for the next step.

A flashback sequence shows that Mystique used Rogue's intensified powers to kill Sinister. In the present she explains that everything she and Gambit have done has led to this moment as foretold by Destiny. Mystique touches the baby's face to Rogue's in the hope of sacrificing the child to save her. After an energy burst Gambit snatches the baby, saying that Rogue would never want an innocent life used to save hers. However, the child was unharmed by Rogue's touch. Gambit gives the baby to Xavier and says he wishes to stay with Rogue. Shortly after, Rogue awakens and tries to kill Mystique. However, somehow the baby cures her of her intensified powers, as well as any psyches she had ever absorbed; this leaves her with the psyche of only one other individual: Mystique. She tells Gambit she needs time alone and if he still cares for her, he would not follow.

Gambit, despite his distracted over the loss of his love, would receive news that the Assassins Guild of New Orleans was approached to kill Charles Xavier, goes to track Xavier down and save him from possible danger. He manages to head off Xavier's attackers, defeating them in short order before he is joined by Xavier himself. They determine who the Assassins were supposed to kill next from a list Gambit pulls from one of the goons, which includes Juggernaut, Sebastian Shaw, and Carter Ryking (Hazard). Xavier makes the connection between himself, Ryking, and Juggernaut, but is at a loss with Shaw. They go to see Ryking, who was being held in a mental institution, only to find out that he had just died of a brain hemorrhage the night before.

Gambit and Xavier then drive out to the Nuclear Research Facility at Alamogordo, the place where the fathers of Xavier, Juggernaut, and Ryking all worked at some point in their lives and is most likely where Mister Sinister was running his genetic operations on the X-gene. However, Xavier begins to suffer terrible headaches, and he and Gambit decide to wait it out in the desert for a few hours, where they are once again attacked by the Assassins Guild.

Charles Xavier is abducted and taken to the Almagordo facility, where it is revealed that the employer of the assassins was Amanda Mueller, the head of the Black Womb Project, a former lover and protégée of Mister Sinister (as well as direct ancestress of the Summers' line), who plans to use Charles to activate Sinister's Cronus machine, so as to be able to revive herself with Essex's own superpowered essence. Meanwhile, Gambit manages to defeat the rest of the assassins with the assistance of Sebastian Shaw, and they form a temporary alliance of convenience to destroy the Cronus machine, which threatens Shaw as well, and rescue Xavier. They ultimately manage to succeed with a desperate last-minute life-or-death gamble when Gambit directly charges Shaw with biokinetic energy, giving him enough power to utterly shatter the otherwise indestructible machine.

He begins searching Australia for Rogue and is again in the company of Professor Xavier. Gambit, however, is unsure of this venture, mainly because of Rogue's request that she be left alone. He and Xavier both agreed that if Rogue did not wish for their help or presence, they would do as she wished and leave her be.[53]

When Gambit and Xavier make it over the plains, they find a completely mismatched landscape. Fearing it is Rogue's doing, they go in and find various parts of Rogue's past being projected around them, including her fight against Nimrod and being captured and beaten at Genosha. Gambit finds it hard to control his emotions seeing Rogue in so much pain, but Xavier reminds him that none of it is real. While in the Genosha prison cells, Gambit and Xavier find the Shi'ar parts hunters and they are told what is happening. They discover that Danger is the one causing the projections and is using Rogue's input from Danger Room sessions. Xavier decides it is better to find Danger first, coming to the conclusion that Danger is trying to push Rogue to some sort of realization.

Eventually Xavier, Gambit and a group of Shi'ar pirates manage to shut down Danger. However, the Professor reactivates her and she defeats the pirates in turn when they attack Gambit and Xavier. After this, it is revealed that Rogue's powers never truly developed past their initial "nascent" stage, which was the reason why her powers never functioned properly. The Professor, now aware of this fact, uses his telepathy to tear down the mental walls that kept Rogue's powers from developing as well as removing the mental echo of Mystique. Finally Rogue kisses Gambit, with no ill side effect, revealing that she is in control of her absorption power.

Some time after, Gambit along with Rogue and Danger decide to go to San Francisco in order to regroup with the other X-Men. On their way there they are intercepted by Pixie who teleports them into the city which is in a state of chaos due to the anti-mutant and pro-mutant movements. Cyclops sends all three out in order to locate several missing students and bring them home. Gambit locates Trance, Dragoness and Toad who are being pursued by H.A.M.M.E.R. agents. Ariel and Onyxx appear and take Trance away for safety.

Later on he encounters Erg and Avalanche who attacks Ares. Gambit intervenes only to end up being swatted aside by Ares. Danger and Rogue come to his aid which eventually leads to Rogue absorbing Ares's powers. Gambit then blasts him unconscious. Having for the moment absorbed some of Ares's power, Rogue easily dispatches a small group of H.A.M.M.E.R. agents and proceedes to steal their tank, along with Gambit and Danger, in order to find the rest of the students and Trance who didn't make it back to base. Trance appears to be lost in the city, and under attack of Ms. Marvel from the Dark Avengers team. Gambit, Rogue and Danger team-up to defeat the powerful female warrior, and Rogue eventually manages to calm Trance down. Remy, Rogue, and Danger then depart back to the X-Men's base.

After the battle between the X-Men and the Dark Avengers is over, Cyclops orders Gambit to destroy the Omega Machine chair that Osborn had built to neutralize mutant powers. Gambit makes his way into the H.A.M.M.E.R. headquarters. There, he fights H.A.M.M.E.R.'s mutate guards Hijack and Input. Hijack is easily defeated, however Input is another story. Input uses his telepathic abilities to enter Gambit's head and discovers there are still left-overs from Remy's "Death" persona. Death re-emerges and defeats Input, and absorbed him into a playing card, which turns black upon doing so. Afterward, Remy somehow returns to normal, with a smile on his face. Gambit then completes his mission, destroys the chair, and returns to the X-Men. When he made it back to Utopia, Gambit got angry at Cyclops for letting Rogue go up against the villain Emplate all alone. Remy tried to argue with Cyclops, but suddenly got trouble with mood swings and left the group. He changed back into his Death persona, and remembered how Apocalypse told him he would never be the same after undergoing the changing process. Gambit managed to calm himself down and transform back to his normal self, but he is worried about his condition.

One mission where this became evident would see Gambit, along with Dazzler, Anole, Northstar, Cannonball, Pixie and Trance travel to Limbo to rescue Magik. Things go wrong when the ground starts to tremble and an army of monstrous demons attack the team. Dazzler calls upon Gambit for help during the attack, but Gambit sinks into the darkness, claiming "Remy's not home right now" leading the X-Men to be overwhelmed by the demons and Gambit transforming into his Death persona. As Death, Gambit was able to transform two of his teammates, Dazzler and Northstar, into beings like himself by hitting them with his charged cards. After battling Cannonball, Death-Gambit was stabbed by Magik and Pixie with their magical swords enabling Gambit to reassert control over his form once more and free the converted friends.

At some point, Gambit and Storm were called upon to help steal the decapitated body of Dracula in order for the X-Men to resurrect Dracula in their fight against his son, Xarus. Later on he encounters X-23 when he saves her from a burning building, after she has been sent away by the X-Men. She decides to pursue a quest to further discover about her past when Gambit decides to follow along to keep an eye on her. After traveling the world together Gambit and X-23 part ways, as Gambit decides to stay at the newly built Jean Grey School for Higher Learning, while X-23 travels to the Avengers Academy.

Later, Gambit has joined the team of Legion, Rogue, Magneto, Frenzy and Xavier, in search of Legions lost personalities that would not cooperate with him after his troubles in the Age of X. Afterwards, Gambit, Frenzy and Rogue travel to the Jean Grey High School of Higher Learning to become teachers and mentors of the school. Gambit's role at the school is as a senior staff member and a principle member of the X-Men team.

Gambit would later join the newest incarnation of X-Factor. This version is a corporate superhero team sponsored by Serval Industries, which partners him with Polaris and Quicksilver. However, he has since taken a break from "team work" and focused again on his relatively easier and less stressful life of a master thief, wandering the world again to try and regain some semblance of peace after everything that had happened.

Rogue ~ WIP
== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Anna Marie
Alias: Rogue
Age: 27
Sexuality: Straight
Part of New York Residing In:

== Physical Description == 
Rogue stands at an average 5' 8" with auburn hair, accented by a white streak in the front. She often covers herself to avoid skin to skin contact with others, so it's not uncommon to see her wearing gloves, long sleeved shirts, scarves, and jeans. Even during warm, or hot, weather.

== Persona ==           
Rogue is a good ol' Southern girl and will make sure you know it. She speaks her mind and is very assertive. Despite this, she's pretty easy to get along with; probably because of her Southern charm. Underneath her "tough" exterior, she's just a girl who wants to be normal and understood.

== Key Skills ==
Power Absorption - Rogue can absorb the powers, energies, memories, knowledge, talents, personality and physical abilities (whether superhuman or not) of another human being (or members of some sentient alien races) through physical contact of her skin with the skin of the other person. She is not limited to absorbing superhuman abilities: for example, she has absorbed the strength, agility, and sharp reflexes of an enhanced human. She can also absorb psionic abilities. In absorbing another person's memories Rogue also gains the emotional responses connected to them. For the transfer of abilities to be accomplished, Rogue’s skin must contact the skin of her victim. Rogue can only absorb abilities and memories from living organic beings. She can possess the powers of several superhuman persons at once. No upper limit has yet been determined for the number of superhuman beings whose power she can maintain simultaneously, or for the amount of power that she can absorb.

== Advantages ==
Acrobatics - Rogue learned various acrobatic skills from Gambit.
Bilingual - Rogue can speak fluent French.

== Disadvantages == 
Mental Health - If Rogue absorbs too many powers in a small span of time, she is prone to having a mental break due to the memories and emotions she also absorbs. Her powers become chaotic and unreliable.

== Background ==
Rogue's parents, Owen and Priscilla, married early in their relationship and lived in a back-to-nature hippie commune in Caldecott County, Mississippi. Born as Anna Marie, she also enjoyed the attentions of her Aunt Carrie, on her mother's side. Anna Marie was raised speaking colloquial English and French, common to the Mississippi bayou area. The commune's failed attempt to use Native American mysticism to reach the "Far Banks" resulted in Priscilla's disappearance. Carrie took over Anna's care, and in her grief at the loss of her sister, was a strict and authoritarian guardian. Anna Marie was a rebellious child and, at some point, the exact event or reasons still unclear, she ran away from home as a young teenager.

At some point, Rogue grew close to a boy named Cody Robbins. During their flirtation, Cody impulsively kissed her, at which point her latent mutant power to absorb the life energy and psyche of others with skin-to-skin contact emerged. Rogue was traumatized by the experience, and Cody was left in a permanent coma. Hence, Rogue wore body-concealing clothing that eliminated the possibility of accidental skin contact. She wished she "did not have to cover up so much around folks" to protect them from her. She thought her power was a curse.

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Doreen Green
Alias: Squirrel Girl
Age: 19
Sexuality: Bisexual
Part of New York Residing In:Manhattan


== Physical Description == 

Doreen is adorable, thats the long and short of it. She's rather short, and petite of frame. She's got a long prehensile squirrel tail, and large buck teeth, and light blue eyes. Her hair she keeps short. It is naturally brown, though she has dyed it of late, after a bet with her mom. She has a wide variety of outfits, though they are generally light, sporty, and all have a hole cut for her tail. Her costume is largely skintight, with brown (synthetic) fur covering her torso.

== Persona ==           

Doreen is an upbeat, happy girl, with a heartfelt joy and happiness that is infectious of character. It is hard to imagine her moping, or feeling any quieter emotion. She tends toward grand displays of sadness, and boundless joy, fond of giving people hugs. She genuinely believes that the world just needs people to get along and be happy. She's devoted to that mission. She has boundless energy, often seeming likely to run until she drops, an endless stream of hugs, laughter, and jokes. She isn't stupid, but she has difficulty with focus, dashing from one thought to the next at times, leaving behind the original concept somewhere along the way. She can be made angry, but it takes a running start. She prefers to solve fights with cleverness.

== Key Skills ==

1) Adorableness: As mentioned, Doreen is adorable.
2) Acrobatics: Doreen is extraordinarily acrobatic, and while some of that is due to her status as a Metahuman, she practices it as well.
3) Piloting: Doreen is accomplished Helicopter Pilot, oddly enough.
4) Hand to Hand Combat: Doreen is actually a skilled Martial Artist, capable of matching powerful individuals via skill and talent.

== Advantages ==

1) Squirrelspeak: Squirrel Girl can speak and understand Squirrels. While they are not compelled to listen to her, or do as she asks, they generally do. Doreen is hard to say no to.
2) Superhuman Strength and Agility: Doreen is stronger and faster then a normal human, capable of bounding from one tree to another.
3) Claws: Squirrel Girl has claws, which allow her to quickly climb wood and other such surfaces.
4) Reaction Speed: Squirrel Girl has superhuman reaction time, which she names "Squirrel Agility." This name has not caught on.
5) Squirrel-a-gig: Squirrel girl has her own small Helicopter, which she can pilot about.
6) Tippytoe: Squirrel Girl has a sidekick, Tippytoe, the Squirrel. She has black fur, and seems to be rather intelligent... though she is pretty good at hiding it.

== Disadvantages == 

1) Naivete: Squirrel Girl believes the best of everyone.
2) Homework: Squirrel girl goes to college. Sometimes she has to stay in and write essays.
3) Obvious Mutant: Squirrel Girl can't really hide her tail.
4) Squirrel Friends: Squirrel Girl will do anything to hide that she is a mutant.

== Background ==

Squirrel Girl is from LA originally. She grew up on stories of the Avengers, the X-Men, and others. Unlike others, she wasn't scared of them. She wanted to be like them. If that meant being a mutant... so be it. Around 13 years old, she began developing her powers, including her tail. Her parents freaked out... but she refused to get distant from them, and they came around to supporting their daughter. She did hide that she wanted to be a superhero from them, thinking it best to keep the shocks to a minimum. However, when she saw Iron Man one day, flying, she followed him. There she found him battling a Villain, and saved the day with a horde of Squirrels! Iron Man indicated he didn't need her as sidekick... but he would put in a good word for her vis a vis the Avengers one day.

She has bummed around, trying to hero it up on the West Coast, but never really hit the big time. She has a score of impressive victories to her name... but well, most of them have asterisks. She ran with a group who called themselves the Great Lakes Avengers for a while, and still keeps in contact with them. However... she's gone off to college. She is studying Computer Science at New York University, and intends to take Iron Man up on his promise. Squirrel Girl is gonna be an Avenger!

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Scott Summers
Alias: Cyclops
Age: 18
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In: Greenwich Village Studio Apartment (and boy does he hate it)

== Physical Description == 
6'0" and physically built, at the peak of youthful pride and ability.

== Persona ==
Originally defeated and upset about what he eventually became, he has learned to accept it and is not the upset with his 'future' self.  Learning what he has about his mentor and father figure Charles Xavier, Scott is in no mood to go back in time and have his mind wiped and repeat the same failure's as his present self.  He'll stay here, and do a better job then the bitter old man he would one day become ever could.           

== Key Skills ==
Cyclops has the power to emit beams of energy from his eyes described as an "optic blast." The beams have the appearance of red light (i.e., electromagnetic radiation in a red wavelength); however, they do not give off heat and instead deliver concussive force without recoil. The beams are tremendously powerful and can be used to rupture steel plates and pulverize rock.  He is able to control the width, height and intensity of the beam allowing to gain either a wider target range, or focus the beam to tightly enough to punch a hole through a coin.  He has great control and accuracy of this and is even able to reflect it off certain objects and surfaces with a very high degree of success.  His spacial awareness is excellent, assisting in this aspect of his fighting, but also in hand to hand as well as flying, and battlefield command.  All fields which Scott excels at and is scene as one the most talented (or dangerous on depending on your point of view) leaders in the world.

Having been trained by the X-men Scott is in peak physical condition and is a rather large threat even without his powers.  A situation he has had to face a few times before and still come out successful.  He is able to survive in harsh conditions, knowing how to keep alive and save despite external factors.

== Disadvantages ==
Pride is Scott's biggest weakness.  When he thinks an action right, there is nothing in the world that can stop him or change he his mind.  He has more than once come in conflict with very close friends over matters and has been entirely unwilling to back down or comprimse despite all possible negotiation.  Besides that rather large character flaw, Scott is also not perfect, and has made mistakes before that have cost his friends lives.  A lot of these memories haunt him, and it is one of his earliest memories (or rather a series of childhood events) that make he can not open his eyes without his optical blast coming forth.  This a psychosomatic issue, not a physical one, and until Scott comes to terms with all the tragic events in his life, he will never be in full control of his power.  Do to his pride, odds are he will never truly confront his demons.

== Background ==

The path of Scott Summers of this universe seemingly followed the same of his Earth-616 counterpart until the day when Beast from an alternate future traveled to their universe in order to inform them they needed to return with him to the future. Scott and the rest of the X-Men accompanied him to a "future" where Scott had killed Xavier, and Jean was dead (with the school now named after her). The shock of this caused Jean's dormant telepathic powers to surface.  While confronting the "future" Cyclops, Jean read his mind and was incredibly disturbed at what she had seen. This caused her to reject Scott. Under Jean's leadership, the team decided to stay in this time until its problems were resolved.

Cyclops found himself shunned by the X-Men and other students at the school, and constantly under the watchful eye of Wolverine who was considering killing Scott to stop the older Scott from ever killing Xavier. He decided to leave the school and stole Wolverine's motorcycle. Wolverine chased him down to bring him back to the school, but Cyclops evaded him by blasting him away, continuing his escape. He traveled to a bank where he had kept a deposit box, hoping his future self had kept it. Guards at the bank were alerted to his presence, believing him to be his future self, and attempted to arrest him.

Mystique disguised as Wolverine arrived and freed Cyclops, telling him she was an old friend of Professor Xavier, and told him that he alone could stop and kill his future self. She also told him that Wolverine had corrupted the school and was using it to turn the children into killing machines and that he was the only one that could set it back on track. When the real Wolverine arrived, Mystique escaped, but not before urging Cyclops to start keeping a list of mutants and their powers. Cyclops returned to the school with the real Wolverine.

When Cyclops' future self came to the School in order to find recruits for his X-Men, the young Angel left with him, to young Cyclops' dismay.

Cyclops and the other past X-Men were placed under the tutelage of Kitty Pryde, with whom they were to continue their training. Cyclops continued to uncover more and more about his future, including his marriage to Jean. He eventually uncovered the truth about Mystique, and foiled her scheme to buy Madripoor with the other X-Men.

During a mission to subdue a new mutant, Cyclops, the original X-Men and Kitty Pryde came under attack by Sentinels. They were assisted by the arrival of adult Cyclops and his team, and together they defeated the Sentinels. During the battle however, past Cyclops took a hit, and was briefly clinically dead, causing his future self to blink out of existence. After being healed by Triage, Cyclops recovered and his future self returned. Shortly after that, a team of "X-Men" arrived from the future, to tell the X-Men of the present that the past X-Men needed to return to their own time. Jean sensed that these "X-Men" were hiding something, and tried to urge her companions to flee. Cyclops was the only one that trusted her enough to leave, and the two escaped.  After escaping, the two were able to find refuge with adult Cyclops.  The future "X-Men" were revealed to be a future Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, after Magik, past Beast, and past Iceman traveled to their future and brought the real future X-Men back.

In a last attempt to accomplish their goal of re-writing history, the Brotherhood instead transported all of the X-Men to Camp Hammond, the site of the X-Men's very first mission. Here, they were attacked by SHIELD who were revealed to have their own Sentinels. The X-Men beat back the assault, and the future Brotherhood was defeated.

Angry that Wolverine's X-Men didn't trust her, and grateful to Cyclops' X-Men for believing in her, Kitty led the X-Men of the past into joining Cyclops' X-Men.

After Jean Grey was abducted by the Shi'ar to be put on trial for the crimes her future self committed, Scott and the rest of the X-Men, along with the Guardians of the Galaxy, went to Chandilar in order to rescue her.  During this adventure, Scott encountered the father of his future self, Corsair, and decided to leave the X-Men in order to explore space with him once Jean was rescued.

Cyclops starts to doubt his decision to leave Earth, Jean Grey and his X-companions, instead of facing his problems. When he and the Starjammers encounter, and defeat, a hostile Badoon ship, he realizes that what he needs is to be by his father's side. Corsair and Cyclops then take the captured Badoon ship on a discovery journey in space.

After reuniting with the X-Men while investigating the Black Vortex alongside the Guardians of the Galaxy, Scott rejoined them when they returned to Earth.

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Warren Worthington III
Alias: Angel
Age: 18
Sexuality: Straight
Part of New York Residing In: New Charles Xavier School for Mutants

== Physical Description ==

He stands at 6 foot tall and weighs in at 150 pounds. His body is lean without an ounce of excess body fat due to his mutation. Warren has short blond hair, blue eyes and used to have large wings of white feathers emerging from his back. However with his power-up Warren’s wings are now 16 feet of charged cosmic energy. The colors of these new wings vary for some strange reason.

== Persona == 

Warren Worthington III is someone who embraces the unique aspects of his personality more than most. Growing up in a highly structured, highly ideal world there is often little means of distinguishing one's self from the crowd. Warren from an early age had a need to be more than just another rich boy. He had no clear identity and for that reason, he clashed with the ridged set of rules his parents laid out for him. This gives him a somewhat rebellious and arrogant personality.

But what really helps contrast these traits are the lingering effects his mother's illness had. Beyond the emotional toil he had to endure, he grew close to her and stood by her while she suffered and died at the hands of forces nobody could control. This is an important development for Warren because he comes from a world where he and everybody like him are used to getting what they want no matter what the cost may be. In the case of his mother it didn't matter how rich they were or how many of the best doctors they had working with them. It was not enough to save his mother. In that sense Warren went through a similar experience that Charles Xavier went through when he found that having wealth and influence didn't set him apart from anybody else. It humbled him to a point where he understood that humanity is fragile and it can't always be protected by wealth and prestige.

From here, his powers gave him an opportunity to do more than his money could ever do. He became a hero, saving lives in a way that involved more than just throwing money at the issue. This resonated strongly with him because it is very much a part of his Angel persona. He almost feels obligated to behave in a way that people would associate with real angels. This resonates strongly with him and plays a major role in how he comes to embrace Professor Charles Xavier's ways. As part of the X-men he can do even more. It does not bother him that he is risking his family wealth and the prestigious world that awaits him because to him having an identity is more important. The identity of Angel has become such a big part of his psyche that to not be this way is like being a caged bird. And as evidenced by the rejection of his father's ultimatum, he has made it clear that he will not be caged.

Overall, that touch of arrogance works together with his embracement of his Angel identity to make him dedicated and adamant believer in the X-men. To him being part of the team isn't just a means to express who and what he is. It's a way for him to pursue his own path that is very different from the one his family laid out for him. Because this path is one that he chose on his own, he is much more certain about the direction of his life and can dedicate much more of his energy and passion into being what he wants to be.

== Key Skills ==

Warren is a mutant, granted with the following abilities:

   Aerial Adaptation: Angel's entire anatomy is naturally adapted to flying. His bones are hollow, his body processes food more efficiently than a normal human body and does not store any excess fat, and he possesses a greater proportionate muscle mass than normal. As a result, his strength, speed, agility, flexibility, endurance, reflexes, coordination, balance, eyesight and hearing are at their peak. Elements of his anatomy are comparable to those of birds, especially birds of prey. His eyes can withstand high-speed winds which would damage the average human eye. He can breathe at high velocities or altitudes, and he can cope with the reduced temperatures at high altitudes for prolonged periods of time, giving him a greater-than-normal capacity to endure low temperatures in areas such as the Arctic.

   Wings: Angel possesses the superhuman ability to fly by means of his wings, which span sixteen feet from wingtip to wingtip. Fully feathered like a bird's, the wings have a very flexible skeletal structure, enabling him to press them to the back of his torso and legs with only the slightest bulge visible under his clothing. Angel flies by flapping his wings, as a bird does. The strength in his natural wings can easily break a man's arm or leg, or even put someone through a wall.

      Flight: The Angel's normal cruising speed averages around 70 miles per hour (112 kph), though he is capable of diving swoops that reach up to 180 miles per hour (290 kph). He can fly at 150 miles per hour (240 kph) without the help of a tail wind for up to half an hour at a time before tiring to an appreciable degree. Though he generally flies beneath the height of the clouds ([6,500 feet)(1981 meters)he can reach a height of 10,000 feet (3000 meters)with little effort. With severe strain he can attain the highest recorded altitude of a bird in flight (African geese at 29,000 feet (8840 meters) above sea level), but he could only remain that high for several minutes.

Black Vortex Empowerment: As result of being under the cosmic power of the corrupting Black Vortex Warren gained a whole new list of abilities of a similar yet radicalized variation of his future selves celestial tech powers, growing powerful enough to shatter the Kree home-world's defenses with ease.

   Cosmic Wings: Having been altered by the vortex had infused Warrens wingspan with celestial energies enabling him faster than light travel through space.

      Cosmic Energy: Angel can discharge enough cosmic energy from his wings in order to eviscerate planetary fleets.

   Self-Sustenance: Angel doesn't need to breathe while he's flying through the cosmos in his empowered form.

   Celestial Tech-like Armor: His transformation enables the cladding of otherworldly materials onto himself enabling the better channeling of his new cosmic power.

   Energy Swords: These new powers allows him to conjure a pair of energized blades with which he can apparently cleave through anything.

== Advantages ==

   Expert Combatant: Angel is a skilled combatant, especially in aerial hand-to-hand combat. He is at peak physical strength for his age.

== Disadvantages == 

   He has a weakness for beautiful women.

== Background ==

   The path of Warren Worthington of this universe seemingly followed the same of his Earth-616 counterpart until the day when Beast from an alternate future traveled to their universe in order to inform them they needed to return with him to the future. Despite Warren's reluctance, the team accompanied Beast to a future where Cyclops had killed Charles Xavier, and Jean Grey was dead as well (with the school now named after her). After the team had confronted the future Cyclops and helped save the life of the future Beast, the team (under Jean's leadership) decided to stay. Warren was the most reluctant on this decision, believing it could only lead to disaster (and also didn't want to know anything about his future self). Despite this, he agreed to stay until the problems in the time were solved.

   Later, Warren did meet his future self and was incredibly confused as to how he had become this way (particularly about his metal wings). Meeting his future self, and the fact that no one was willing to explain to him why he had come to be that way, Warren panicked and attempted to return to his time alone. Jean Grey used her powers to alter Warren's emotions and calm him down, to the dismay of the other X-Men.

   Despite this, Warren continued to doubt the mission of his fellow X-Men, and the future School, doubting the truth of future Beast's statements of impending mutant genocide at the hands of future Cyclops. When future Cyclops and his X-Men came to the School to look for recruits, Warren decided join them, telling the others that they were the only ones fighting for mutantkind in this future.

   The rest of the team later joined Cyclops' team as well, following the conflict between Wolverine's X-Men and the future versions of the X-Men and Brotherhood at Cape Citadel.

Black Vortex

   After retrieving the Black Vortex from his father, Mister Knife, Star-Lord and Kitty Pryde gathered both the Guardians of the Galaxy and the X-Men at Spartax to decide what to do with such a powerful item. The heroes were tracked down by Mister Knife's cosmically-empowered Slaughter Lords and overpowered.

   Gamora submitted to the Black Vortex in order to face the Slaughter Lords, and be able to escape to Spartax's moon with her allies. Beast and Angel submitted to the Black Vortex, and accompanied Gamora in a journey to attempt to empower the entire universe. However, at the first planet they stopped they were assaulted by the Accuser Corps, who took the Vortex from them. In retaliation, they attacked Hala. A cosmically-empowered Ronan managed to force them to flee to a distant planet.

   Magik and Rocket Raccoon later tracked them down and talked sense into them, so they could help them fight J'son and his Slaughter Lords. After J'son recovered the Vortex and used its power on Thane to encase the entirety of Spartax in an amber construct, the heroes got the Vortex back and used it on X-Man Kitty Pryde so she could use her now-enhanced phasing powers to phase Spartax through the amber construct and save the planet. Before getting rid of the Vortex, some of the cosmically empowered heroes decided to remove their cosmic powers, Angel wasn't one of them.

You were all warned this might happen.


== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Rocket.
Alias: ...Yup. Still Rocket.
Age: Stasis cages make that a pretty good question, don't they?
Sexuality: Smoothskin-curious. Also heterosexual.
Part of New York Residing In: Keeps a personal space in the basement of a Brooklyn pizzeria. Otherwise, doesn't much care.

== Physical Description == 
   Rocket Raccoon is, as the name might imply, a raccoon. Mostly. He's furry, has the mask and ears and stripey tail and all that. But he's also four feet tall, more comfortable on two legs, and wears clothing. His face is surprisingly expressive, maybe more than the average earthperson's, with all the added features it has. His physique is lean and agile, but under the clothing are the dense, taut muscles of a wild animal. Said clothes are almost always of a purely practical nature; it's not that Rocket dislikes fancy clothes, it's just that finding them in his size, and then keeping them from catching on fire is something of a hassle. He does have an unhealthy interest in fedoras.

== Persona == 
   About what you would expect of a four-foot cybernetic raccoon with a gun fetish, really. He's seen some of the best and worst things the universe has to offer, and likes to project a rude, antisocial "tough guy" exterior.  There are times it slips though, and you can get a glimpse at a creature that didn't ask for the life it was forced into. Just don't mention it, because really, he's a four-foot raccoon with a gun fetish.

   Rocket deeply, almost desperately values friendship. He's taken a lot of kicks to the muzzle over the years, and anyone who shows loyalty ad friendship all through that sort of thing is someone he values. As for the people doing the kicking, well, they end up missing the offending limb 

   By now Rocket has gotten used to the fact that outside of Halfworld, most of the universe seems to be made of smoothskins, at least when it's not made of horrible bug-people, eldritch tentacle-y abominations, or beigns of infinite energy. Given the options, he'll go with the smoothskins, thanks. it doesn't stop him from taking the occasional (as in, frequent) jabs at his big monkey companions, though.     

== Key Skills ==
• Rocket is a skilled pilot, and can figure out how to fly just about anything, given a few minutes and a little trial and error. If it doesn't fly, he can probably find a way to get it airborne anyway.

• In a similar vein, he's an able mechanic, and is at his best when cobbling improbable things out of unlikely scraps.
He owns all seven seasons of MacGuyver on Blu-Ray.

• Guns? Explosives? Artillery? Oooooh yeeeaaaaahhhh. Though he prefers energy weapons, he's not too shabby un unarmed combat. so long as you consider teeth, claws, and fifty-five pounds of procyon fury as "unarmed." You'll probably live through it, only to die of the shame.

• Despite it all, Rocket possesses a keen and tactical mind which when paired with his no-bullshit attitude and quick wit, make him a competent leader. Probably not any team's first choice, but you' be surprised how often the first choice ends up captured in some deranged parallel dimension. second place is still placing!

== Advantages ==
• Rocket possesses all the attributes and abilities of, well, a raccoon. Keen hearing and smell, with a hyperactive sense of touch. He's also got excellent night vision, and every joint is double. He can climb as fast as he can run, possesses sharp claws and teeth, and his small size and light weight make him quite stealthy, on those rare occasions he wants to be. He is also the state animal of Tennessee.

• In addition, the cybernetics and physical alterations to his body make him stronger than his size would indicate, and vastly more durable than a natural raccoon. It also means he can't get through airport security. He's also slightly magnetic, and erases cassette tapes as a party trick.

• Rocket is able to understand the language of Flora colossus. This has probably been more helpful than he actually thinks it is.

• He's sassy. C'mon, he's a raccoon who shoots things, you have to take what you can get.

• Also fluffy. And with that, this barrel is thoroughly scraped.

== Disadvantages == 
• Rocket's kind of a jerkass. he finds humor in the misfortune of others, especially if he's caused it. He tends to take paths of least resistance, unless resistance lets him tell someone to screw off. It's not that he's unlikable, or doesn't make friends. it's just that the galaxy has spit in his face so often that he's had to erect a crispy crunchy shithead shell around his soft nougat center.

• Rocket pretends to be greedy. This is to cover up the fact that he's a kleptomaniac. Which makes a good excuse for also actually being greedy. See disadvantage #1 if this isn't making sense.

• Rocket has what you might call impulse management issues. Besides the habitual pocketing of shiny things (or things he thinks he can make explode. Ir pawn off to buy either of those) he's also prone to vice. You'd be amazed how much whiskey a raccoon can pack away. You probably won't be surprised to know how little whiskey it takes to turn a 55-pound carnivore with a love of firearms into a real problem. His greed is also countered by a gambling habit.

• He's a small furry mammal that weighs under two stone whio hangs out with people who look like Rob Liefeld designed their physiques. Much like Rodney Dangerfield, he don't get no respect. Also you'd be surprised how many people are more freaked out by a talking raccoon than they are a blue man with no pupils, a tail, and a german accent. Maybe the guns don't help.

• It turns out that being the state animal of Tennessee isn't much of an advantage after all.

== Background ==
   Rocket's origin is on the planet known as halfworld, where hyper-intelligent robots genetically and cybernetically engineered companion animals to be the caretakers of an ancient civilization's planetary insane asylum. The creatures developed their own civilization with an economy centered around making toys in exchange for animal crackers.
   But then things get a little strange.
   Halfworld was shielded from the rest of the galaxy by a force known as the Galacian Wall. It was designed by the aforementioned ancient civilization to keep their lunatics and their pets safe. Out of fuckin' nowhere he comes the Jolly green Giant smashing through that forcefeild (evidently "smash" is his middle and last name.) Naturally seeing the opportunity of a two-ton green monkey with anger management issues, Rocket enlisted the Hulk in a rescue operation to retrieve some hostages and the Gideon Bible.
   What's the Gideon Bible? Don't worry, it's not important.
   And then there was the time that Rocket had to fight off an army of killer robot clowns developed by a mole overlord, resulting in a near death-by-vacuum cleaner. The end result of that was Halfworld's toy moguls turning on Rocket and his friends. Wait, that sounds less threatening than it should. How about the all-controlling economic factions engaged in bloody corporate warfare with each other set their differences aside and put cross hairs on said raccoon and said raccoon's friends? I'll bet you're wondering what kind of mushrooms Bill Mantlo puts on his pizza right about now, huh?
   Since then, Rocket has toured the galaxy both aboard his own ship, and those of others. he's been jailed, hailed, and even de-tailed. Currently he's slumming with some knucklehead smoothskins (and a tree stump) calling themselves the Guardians of the Galaxy. I need a drink.

Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers)

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Carol Susan Jane Danvers
Alias: Captain Marvel
Age: 28
Sexuality: Formerly Heterosexual, now Homosexual (Closeted)
Part of New York Residing In: Avengers Tower

== Physical Description == 

Carol stands at about 5'11" and weighs roughly 165 lbs. She has a strong build, with a noticeable build of muscle. She's clearly a woman that enjoys her strength and fitness. She has features one might call more handsome than beautiful, but she does have her feminine allures and knows how to use them. A flat, tight tones stomach, with long, shapely legs, wide hips beneath a trimmed waist, and a modest bust. She holds herself with a military-trained discipline and posture, with confidence. Blonde hair is cut short, though at times when in her civilian persona she'll wear nearly impossibly detectable hair extensions for, well...The only reasons that matters is she does it because she can.

== Persona ==           

Carol is fiercely independent and self-reliant. She strongly believes that she can do anything she sets her mind to. She is an incredibly confident and strong-willed individual, despite the mental and physical tragedies that have befallen her. She has overcome incredible odds, both personally and professionally. She has a warrior spirit and a raw willpower that, by now, has become nigh-unbreakable. This personality trait has allowed her to endure physical and mental torture and to maintain both sanity and focus under extremely stressful and painful condition.

A warrior at heart, both her human and Kree experiences have shaped her perspectives and her personality. She thinks and responds as a trained soldier and warrior. This plays a strong role in how she reacts in various situations. She can be fierce, ruthless and brutal in battle. She does what needs to be done and this militaristic determination can sometimes come across as cold and callous. She is incredibly assertive, straight-forward and downright bold. Carol entered the military due to her almost obsessive love of airplanes and her dreams of flying. Despite her fierce will power, Carol is haunted and currently overwhelmed by the tragedies that make up her life. From the loss of her emotions and original powers at the hands of Rogue to the death of Mar-vell to her current shame about her alcoholism and status with the Avengers, Carol is wrestling with a lot of demons. She has tried various means of escaping these issues, from her time in space to her drinking and is now realizing that she has only compounded her problems and must start dealing with them.

Carol’s past battle with Rogue left her with a lifetime of memories without any emotional connections to them. She remembers friends, family and lovers but feels nothing for them beyond nostalgia. Carol’s emotional reality began anew after Xavier restored her memories and she finds it difficult and awkward to deal with her own past because of this. This causes Carol to seem distant and even cold with those who she was once very close with.

== Key Skills ==

  • Super Strength: While her strength has fluctuated through her career as a heroine, she's now hit a state where the only direction she can go is up. Recent tests by Avengers scientist Hank Pym have shown that her base strength level is still increasing. Even when not augmented by any additional energy, Carol can now lift 92 tons and strike with a similar level of force, and Pym has theorized that this is likely not her limit.
  • Super Speed: She has the ability move at supersonic speeds, making her literally too fast for the human eye to follow. She can achieve speeds of at least Mach-3 during atmospheric flight and has shown the ability to hit even greater velocities when the need arises.
  • Super Agility: Ms. Marvel possesses great superhuman agility and reflexes to compliment her superhuman speed. She can perform acrobatic feats far beyond that of the finest human athlete and easily evade bullet-speed projectiles.
  • Super Stamina: She can exert herself at maximum effort for up to 24 hours before tiring. During the Skrull Empire's assault on New York, Ms. Marvel single-handedly fought off a massive Skrull invasion force for an entire day without rest, successfully keeping the city out of enemy hands until reinforcements arrived. However, she is capable of channeling absorbed energy to further increase her stamina to higher levels.
  • Flight: As previously mentioned, Captain Marvel can fly at speeds of at least Mach-3 in the atmosphere. She is a highly agile flier and can turn on a dime in midair, even while traveling at great velocity. Since she is also a talented and highly-trained fighter pilot, Carol's advanced knowledge of flight mechanics and aerial combat allows her to easily outmaneuver most opponents in the air.
  • Invulnerability:She is impervious to most forms of damage and can absorb a tremendous amount of punishment without injury. She can survive unharmed in the cold vacuum of space. She is bullet-proof and such attacks merely bounce off her skin on contact. More powerful attacks such as rockets, mortar shells, and bombs are only slightly more effectual, due to the fact that she can absorb their explosive energy. She is unfazed by blows delivered from opponents weaker than her and can withstand blows even by those who are stronger, though continuous and repeated hits by opponents of such great strength can eventually wear her down. She is also impervious to most forms of energy attack, and in fact such attacks can make her stronger (see Energy Absorption, below).
  • Energy Absorption: Captain Marvel has the ability to absorb a wide variety of energy and utilize it to further augment her own super-strength, speed, invulnerability, energy projection, and other powers. This ability was not present before Carol became Binary, and could be an after-effect of having once been Binary (as Binary, Carol could absorb and wield energy equivalent to that of a binary star system). Extremely high-energy attacks may eventually overload Carol's absorbing ability, but she has shown that she can absorb and utilize energy up to the magnitude of a nuclear explosion. Carol has also shown an ability to absorb magical energy (though not without consequence), recently demonstrated when she helped Doctor Strange defeat a formidable magic-wielding villain named Warren Traveler.
  • Energy Projection: She can generate extremely powerful photon blasts, which are roughly equal in force to Iron Man's full-strength repulsor blasts. If she has absorbed a great amount of energy, Carol can generate even stronger energy blasts. Like her energy absorption power, Carol did not originally possess this ability prior to becoming Binary, though it has now become one of her signature powers.
  • Regeneration: In the event that Ms. Marvel suffers an attack that is actually powerful enough to overload both her invulnerability and her energy absorption power, she possesses a super-healing factor and is able to quickly regenerate from almost any injury. Her healing rate is accelerated even further if she is able to absorb and utilize external energy to aid in the process. She has fully recovered from nuclear explosions and attacks of similar magnitude in a matter of hours.
  • Danger Sense: One of Ms. Marvel's original powers was a precognitive sense, called her "seventh sense," which allowed her to subconsciously recognize danger before it occurred. It was this sense that triggered her early transformations from Carol Danvers to Ms. Marvel. Her seventh sense also allowed her to subconsciously predict an opponent's attacks before they made them, greatly enhancing her fighting and tactical prowess in battle. After Carol's original powers were stolen by Rogue, her seventh sense was lost, and because it was a subconscious power, Carol was uncertain whether it had returned even after regaining her powers. Eventually, certain incidents left no doubt that her seventh sense had since been restored.
  • Minor Molecular Control: Ms. Marvel possesses a limited degree of molecular control, which she can use to transform regular clothing into her Ms. Marvel costume and vice versa. This power works almost instantaneously.
  • Cosmic Awareness: As Binary, Carol possessed cosmic awareness, much like that of the Silver Surfer. She could visually perceive all types of energy patterns and was instantly aware of any significant disruptions in space. She seemingly lost her cosmic awareness after losing her Binary powers, though like her other Binary abilities, her cosmic awareness can re-emerge under the right circumstances.

    Apart from her powers, Ms. Marvel possesses many other skills and abilities that she developed on her own. Her advanced military training along with her Kree warrior skills naturally makes her a very dangerous hand-to-hand fighter. When used in combination with her many superhuman powers, she becomes a truly formidable adversary. As a CIA agent, Carol developed highly advanced espionage skills, including infiltration, surveillance, interrogation, and disguise. Traveling around the world as an intelligence agent she learned to speak several other languages, such as German and Japanese, as if they were her first language. After her time in the Air Force she became a renowned fighter pilot in the Marvel Universe, and is also skilled at flying aircraft and spacecraft built by the Kree. Her advanced flying knowledge is used to great effect when fighting enemies in the air.

    Because Carol's genetic structure was merged with Captain Mar-Vell's by the Kree Psyche-Magnitron, she has intimate knowledge of all aspects of the Kree race, including their language, culture, customs, politics, and technology. Though she is virtually half-Kree, she has never been emotionally tied to them, and sometimes has gone against Kree authority on certain matters. During her time as Binary she spent considerable time away from Earth, gathering valuable knowledge on other advanced alien races such as the Brood and the Shi’ar.

    A more artistic ability Carol possesses is her writing talent. She had been a freelance journalist for some time and was also a magazine editor in New York. She is an accomplished author and has published several books, including a popular science-fiction novel based on her deep space adventures with the Starjammers.

    Though it is usually understated in her civilian persona since she shuns glamor in favor of more comfortable clothes, Carol is an extremely attractive woman. Blonde-haired, blue-eyed, and with a curvaceous figure, she conforms to most standards of beauty. She is sometimes drawn as more muscular and solidly built than the thinner bodies of some other heroines, which is befitting of her military background of physical fitness and training. Her beauty combined with her strength, intelligence, and willpower has earned her loyalty and affection from many people in the Marvel Universe (as well as a few crushes), though this same beauty can lead some to underestimate her (to their detriment).
== Advantages ==

She is an expert combatant in hand-to-hand fighting skill, with various forms of military training and learning through experience to back her up. Similar training has also made her a crack shot. She's a skilled and inspiring leader, able to lead teams and develop plans and tactics to account for their strengths and weaknesses. She's also not above using her beauty to her own advantage, and twisting hapless men around her finger, even if events in her life have left her with little desire for anyone with a Y-chromosome in her life. Her rather extensive and varied career has left her with a number of contacts and resources spread through various governmental agencies, from NASA to the CIA to SHIELD, will favors she can call in.

== Disadvantages == 

She can be a bit bull-headed at times, and quick to anger if she thinks someone is treating her poorly just because she is a woman. Her increasing power level can also surprise her sometimes, and it is getting harder and harder for her to adjust properly to a non-hero, civilian life when not out saving the world. She's also a (poorly) recovering alcoholic, and her moods to have a drink strike her more often than she would like, but that is a secret she keeps from mostly everyone around her. She's also, to her own discredit, still relatively hesitant to fully trust her colleagues again, after they turned her back on her and ignored her plight when she was mind-controlled and raped by cosmic entities. It's a sad day, after all, when she would honestly prefer to work with Rogue over many of the other Avengers.

== Background ==

The History of Carol Danvers
Carol Danvers was born in Boston, Massachusetts, as the only girl among three children. Despite the fact that Carol was extremely bright and capable, more so than either of her brothers, her chauvinistic father refused to pay for her to attend college, preferring to spend the money on his sons instead. He insisted that Carol merely find a good husband to take care of her, a sexist notion that the fiercely independent Carol refused to accept.

Carol had always loved the idea of flying, and after she graduated from high school she decided to defy her father's wishes and joined the United States Air Force. She excelled in the Air Force, her skill as a jet fighter pilot so remarkable that her colleagues nicknamed her "Ace," and she quickly rose to the rank of Colonel.

Carol's exemplary performance in the Air Force brought her to the attention of the Central Intelligence Agency, who actively recruited her and trained her to become an elite field agent. As an agent of the CIA, Carol often teamed up with fellow agent Michael Rossi, and the two became romantically involved. She also teamed up with a Canadian agent named Logan (before he became Wolverine) and the two became good friends, saving each others lives during several dangerous missions, and it was even implied that they may have become more than friends at some point.

On one of her most important CIA missions, Carol had to infiltrate Soviet airspace alongside Logan and an American test pilot named Ben Grimm (before he became the Thing and a member of the Fantastic Four). The mission almost failed when they were intercepted by Soviet forces (led by the Black Widow) and forced to the ground. With a good amount of luck, the three managed to escape and succeeded in retrieving the mysterious metal which they had been sent to obtain. In the process, the trio formed a bond that would live on into their super-hero careers.

During what would prove to be her final CIA mission, Carol was captured by the KGB and held in Lubyanka prison, where she endured interrogation and torture. In defiance of government orders, Logan and Michael Rossi infiltrated Russia, broke into Lubyanka, and rescued Carol. The ordeal extinguished Carol's enthusiasm for being a CIA agent, so she decided to resign in order to pursue a different career.

Carol's impressive resume landed her a position as the head of security of NASA headquarters in Cape Canaveral. There she unexpectedly made the acquaintance of the Kree superhero Mar-Vell (known on Earth as Captain Marvel) and hints of a romance developed between the two. Carol's CIA background made her quite unafraid to put herself in potentially dangerous situations, and while on the job she found herself caught in the middle an epic battle between Captain Marvel and his Kree arch-enemy Yon-Rogg. Carol, who until then had always felt herself capable of handling anything, was a mere pawn in the struggle between the two super-powered combatants, and she hated feeling so helpless. During the conflict, Carol was exposed to the explosive radiation of an otherworldly Kree device called the Psyche-Magnitron, which had the power to turn thoughts into reality but whose radiation was lethal to humans. Captain Marvel shielded Carol from the bulk of the radiation with his own body, causing Carol's DNA to absorb much of his own genetic template. Carol's lifelong dreams of flight and her sudden wish to have powers like those of Captain Marvel completed the process, and her DNA was transformed into that of a superhuman member of the Kree race.

The result was that Carol emerged from the explosion with superhuman strength and durability, the ability to fly, fighting skills equal to that of a trained Kree warrior, and a precognitive "seventh sense" that allowed her to sense beforehand when danger or a crisis was about to occur. Carol become the super-heroine known as Ms. Marvel, and her first costume was based on the red-and-blue Kree uniform worn by Captain Marvel. Initially, Carol was not even aware of her superhuman alter-ego: When her seventh sense detected a crisis, she would fall unconscious and transform into Ms. Marvel in a burst of energy. As Ms. Marvel, she had no recollection of being Carol Danvers and was convinced that she had amnesia. In turn, Carol retained no memory of being Ms. Marvel, and believed that she had merely been unconscious during that time. Eventually Carol would discover that she was in fact Ms. Marvel and her two personas became of one mind, allowing Carol to have full control over when she became Ms. Marvel and vice versa.

As Ms. Marvel, Carol quickly gained the reputation of being a formidable super-hero in her own right. She fought and defeated many super-powered villains, including Scorpion, Grotesk, MODOK and AIM, Tiger Shark, Destructor, the Doomsday Man, and others. She also acquired some persistent enemies due to her super-heroics, including the renegade Shi'ar warrior known as Deathbird and the shape-shifting mutant villainess known as Mystique. The latter plotted to destroy Ms. Marvel in secret, which eventually led to Mystique's adopted mutant daughter, Rogue, entering a fateful battle with Carol that would emotionally scar both women forever.

After a battle that briefly reunited Carol with her old flame Captain Marvel, her original Ms. Marvel costume was badly damaged. Carol decided that she had finally come into her own as a superhero, and wanted a new costume that was uniquely hers rather than being a reflection of Captain Marvel's. With some help from her friend Janet Van Dyne (the fashion-conscious super-heroine known as the Wasp), Carol designed a new black one-piece uniform with a gold lightning bolt across the chest, accented by high black boots and gloves. She kept the red scarf as a reminder of her original costume, though she now wore it as a sash tied around her waist. The costume became Ms. Marvel's signature look, and though Carol would set it aside on certain occasions (once when she became Binary, and another time when she changed her code name to Warbird), she has always gone back to this costume.

Respect for Ms. Marvel in the super-hero community grew to the point where she was asked to join the renowned super-team the Avengers, since an opening had became available with the departure of the Scarlet Witch. Carol gratefully accepted, and though the Avengers eventually became the team that she would be most closely associated with throughout her superhero career, her first stint with them would not end well.

Initially Ms. Marvel fit right in with the Avengers and proved to be a valuable team member, helping defeat a number of super-villains, including the Absorbing Man, Chthon, the Grey Gargoyle, the Elements of Doom, and the Taskmaster. She also single-handedly took down the mutant villain Sabretooth after he had escaped from SHIELD custody. During this time she forged friendships with the other Avengers and truly enjoyed becoming part of the team. Little did she know that these would prove to be her final relatively care-free days as a superhero.

The first tragedy struck when Carol's boyfriend and psychiatrist, Dr. Michael Barnett, was found brutally beaten to death in his office and all of his files on Carol Danvers stolen. Barnett had been instrumental in helping Carol come to terms with her dual identity of Ms. Marvel, and the two had grown very close. With the help of her Avengers teammate, Iron Man, Carol was able to determine that Barnett had been murdered by someone posing as Carol herself, and with further detective work, she discovered that the murderer was a mutant shape-shifter known as Mystique. A grief-stricken Carol vowed revenge on Mystique, but was unable to locate her. Mystique then sent her super-powered henchmen Pyro and Avalanche to kill Carol when she was out patrolling as Ms. Marvel. The evil mutants initially took Carol by surprise, but once she realized they had been sent by Mystique, she flew into a rage and defeated them easily.

Carol's quest for revenge on Mystique was put on indefinite hold when she was suddenly hit with a bizarre and completely unexpected condition: In less than a day, she had somehow become several months pregnant. Having not been intimate with anyone for some time, a distraught Carol explained the impossibility of her situation to her Avengers teammates, but was further upset when they merely offered their congratulations as though the pregnancy were normal. Her pregnancy progressed at a pace far faster then normal, and within a few days she had given birth to a baby boy. As he had in Carol's womb, the boy aged at a fantastically accelerated rate, growing to manhood in the course of a single day.

Calling himself Marcus, he revealed to Carol and the other Avengers that he was the son of the time-lord Immortus, and that he had been trapped alone in another dimension called Limbo after his father had disappeared. Marcus claimed that his only means of escape from Limbo was to teleport an Earth woman into Limbo with him and impregnate her with his essence, where he could be "reborn" on Earth after he sent the woman back. After much observation of Earth using his father's technology, he chose Carol for her strength, beauty, and other exemplary qualities, and had teleported her into Limbo and attempted to woo her. But Carol had initially rejected him, so Marcus admitted to using a "subtle boost" from Immortus' mind-controlling technology to make her fall in love with him, after which he coupled with her. He then wiped her mind of the memory and teleported her back to Earth at the exact time she had been abducted, so that no one, not even Carol herself, had known what had happened. The plan had worked, except that Marcus' presence on Earth was now causing unforeseen and dangerous fluctuations in the time stream. The only way to stop these fluctuations from causing irreparable harm to reality would be if Marcus returned to Limbo.

Carol found herself strangely drawn to Marcus despite all of this, and for some reason she could not bear the idea of him returning to Limbo alone. Announcing that she loved Marcus, she agreed to leave Earth to be together with him in Limbo. The Avengers cluelessly took Carol at her word and told her she was free to be with her "new love" with their blessing. Only Iron Man made an attempt to question if Carol really knew what she was doing, but he was told that all was well. Thor used his mystical hammer to open an extra-dimensional portal to Limbo and sent Carol and Marcus on their way.

Marcus now had Carol where he wanted her, but he had made a fatal error in his scheme: He had not made provisions to halt the super-aging of his new body after it reached adulthood. He continued to age at a hyper-accelerated rate and within a matter of hours had died of old age, leaving Carol alone in Limbo. Once Marcus was dead, Carol realized that she had still been under his mind control the entire time and had not been acting of her own free will when she claimed to love him or left Earth with him. Even worse, her own friends and teammates had actually helped Marcus and never once questioned his true nature or motives, despite the fact that he had essentially admitted to using mind control on Carol. With no one to help her, Carol called upon all of her ingenuity and resourcefulness to master the technology Marcus had left behind and eventually succeeded, using it to escape Limbo and return to Earth.

Once back, Carol avoided all contact with the Avengers. Still traumatized by Michael Barnett's death and her subsequent abduction and rape by Marcus Immortus, Carol decided that she simply wanted to start a brand new life, so she left the East Coast entirely and settled in San Francisco.

Unfortunately, Carol's old enemy, Raven Darkholme (Mystique), had not forgotten her vow to destroy Ms. Marvel. Mystique learned from her precognitive partner, Destiny, that Carol had returned to Earth, so she discussed the possibility of Mystique's adopted daughter, Rogue, killing Carol. Rogue was a mutant with the ability to temporarily absorb the mind and powers of whomever she touched, and therefore was Mystique's ultimate weapon.

But Destiny foretold that Ms. Marvel could destroy Rogue, so Mystique vowed to protect Rogue by finding another way to kill Ms. Marvel. As fate would have it, Rogue overheard their conversation and, anxious to prove herself, decided to go fight Ms. Marvel anyway. Rogue ambushed Carol at her San Francisco apartment, where Carol was returning from grocery shopping. Carol fought back furiously, and their battle raged all across the city. Carol fought Rogue so long and hard that Rogue's ability to absorb powers and memories became permanent in this case, rather than temporary. Once Carol was entirely drained she fell into a catatonic state, while Rogue's mind was suddenly assaulted by Carol's personality and emotions competing with her own. Desperately hoping that killing Carol would silence the unwelcome presence inside her head, Rogue threw Carol's lifeless body off the Golden Gate Bridge.

But the epic struggle had drawn the attention of the super-heroine known as Spider-Woman, who arrived just in time to witness its conclusion. Spider-Woman retrieved Carol, who was still barely alive, from the water and immediately brought her to Professor X and the X-Men. They were able to save Carol’s life and Xavier helped her recover her memories, but could not reconnect Carol to any of her past feelings. A distraught Carol realized that she had to go on with her life without her powers or her emotional connection to her memory.

Though Rogue had technically won the battle and now had all of Ms. Marvel's powers at her disposal, Destiny's prediction that Ms. Marvel would destroy Rogue proved true, in the sense that Rogue was never the same person afterward. Carol's competing personality, emotions, and memories inside Rogue's head threatened to drive Rogue insane. Because Carol was now an intimate part of her mind, Rogue also felt catastrophic guilt over what she had done to the other woman. Even her foster mother Mystique did not know what to do, so in desperation Rogue eventually turned to Mystique's enemies, the X-Men, for a solution to her condition. After many years of their help, a fully reformed and repentant Rogue would finally purge the Carol Danvers persona from her mind, but the process would be a long, hard, and often life-threatening road.

While Carol was recovering, Professor X contacted the Avengers and let them know what had happened to her. The Avengers, who had not seen or heard from Carol since she had left Earth with Marcus, came to visit Carol at her bedside, expecting to cheer her up. Instead, Carol angrily told the team off for abandoning her to a man who had mind-controlled her and violated her, even after he had essentially admitted to doing so. The Avengers left the visit hanging their heads, finally aware that they had failed to protect one of their own when she had needed them most.

Carol's recovery time spent with Professor X and the X-Men made her feel like she belonged somewhere again. Her bonding with the team was made even easier by the presence of her old friend Logan, who was now Wolverine and a member of the X-Men. Though Carol's powers were gone, she still had her considerable intellect and fighting experience, so she offered to stay and help the X-Men in any way she could. Serving as the team's ace pilot and intelligence operative, she went on various adventures with the team, including space missions.

On one mission, the knowledge of Xavier's Institute had been compromised, so Carol helped them erase their files from the Pentagon by using her previous affiliation with the military, even going so far as to dust off her old her uniform and rank to aid in the infiltration. While in the Pentagon the team came across Rogue (not yet reformed) and Mystique, who were after the same files. The Ms. Marvel-powered Rogue fought the X-Men while Carol was busy deleting the files. Mystique attempted to kill Carol once and for all, believing that her now-powerless enemy was easy prey. Instead, Carol took down Mystique with sheer anger and old-fashioned fighting skill. Once Mystique lay unconscious at Carol's feet, Carol realized that she could now take her ultimate revenge on her hated enemy, but decided to spare Mystique's life.

On a later mission in space, Carol was kidnapped by the alien race called the Brood, who performed agonizing experiments on her due to her unique genetic configuration. Logan, as he had back in Carol's CIA days, eventually rescued Carol from imprisonment and torture once again. After Carol recovered, she and the X-Men discovered that the Brood's experimentation (however unwelcome) had allowed her to attain nearly godlike power. She now possessed super-strength far greater than before, the ability to survive unharmed in outer space, and the ability to manipulate cosmic energy by tapping into a white hole.

To reflect her new power level, which was the equivalent of a binary star system, Carol adopted the new code name of Binary. She took on a completely new look, wearing a red and white costume with a pair of stars on the chest. When her Binary powers were activated her skin took on a deep red color, her hair transformed into a corona of energy, and the edges of her boots and gloves resembled flame. Since Carol now had the ability to travel the stars entirely on her own, she took a temporary leave from the X-Men to in order to explore her vast new powers before returning to Earth.

When Carol decided to rejoin the X-Men a while later, she came across Rogue, who at that moment was alone inside the X-Men's mansion. Thinking that Rogue was still a villain and had broken into the mansion, Carol immediately attacked, her first blow literally sending Rogue into orbit. Rogue, in possession of Carol's former Ms. Marvel powers and not fully realizing how much more powerful Carol now was, recovered and flew back to continue the fight. Carol's next blow sent Rogue crashing through several hundred yards of landscape. Carol might have gone on to kill Rogue in the unequal struggle, had the other X-Men not intervened and explained that Rogue was trying to reform and had recently joined the team. Carol was shocked. She could not believe that the X-Men, knowing what Rogue had done to her, would embrace her old enemy this way. Carol felt that yet another team she trusted and counted on had betrayed her. Dismayed by these events, Carol cut all ties with the X-Men and left, just as she had previously done when she'd felt betrayed by the Avengers.

Since Carol had no emotional connection with anyone, she decided to not only leave the X-Men, but to leave Earth altogether. While journeying alone through space she met and joined the Starjammers, a group of space pirates. The Starjammers came into conflict with the Shi'ar Empire and Carol defeated her old enemy Deathbird, who had returned to the Shi-ar, and even successfully took on the might of Gladiator and the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. She had now adventured all across the galaxy and had defeated so many powerful adversaries with her vast powers that she began to feel bored and alienated from all other life.

Desperate for a challenge, she later came across Quasar, who was trying to save the Earth from a crisis involving the sun expanding at an unnatural rate, and immediately leaped to his aid. The task proved incredibly dangerous even for a being of Carol's power level, and though she and Quasar ultimately prevailed, Carol was severely injured in the process. Quasar carried her back to Avengers Mansion on Earth and she spent many months recovering there, though she was unable to recover her link to her cosmic Binary powers. The Avengers, still painfully aware of how badly they had failed Carol the last time she was with the team, made every effort to do what they could for her this time around, and Carol decided to forgive them. Even after she had fully recovered, the Avengers invited her to stay. The Starjammers also visited Carol and invited her to join them once more, but it conflicted with her schedule with the Avengers, so she decided to remain on Earth.

Though Carol had lost her cosmic link to her Binary powers, she was able to regain her original Ms. Marvel powers of super-strength, resistance to injury, flight, and enhanced senses. In addition, she now had the ability to manipulate and project energy, which may have been a residual after-effect of her powers as Binary. For her second stint with the Avengers, Carol decided to change her code name to Warbird, though she kept wearing her signature Ms. Marvel costume.

Unfortunately, all of the trauma Carol had been through up until this point – her boyfriend's murder at the hands of Mystique, her abduction and rape by Marcus, the stealing of her powers and memories by Rogue, her capture and torture by the Brood, and gaining and then losing godlike power as Binary – had caught up with her and was taking a heavy toll on her psyche. True to her independent nature, she never spoke of her emotional distress to her friends or teammates, and unwisely turned to alcohol as a means of coping instead. Carol went on Avengers missions while intoxicated and often made simple and inexcusable mistakes. After a couple of near-catastrophes due to Carol's uncontrolled behavior, the Avengers eventually had no choice but to expel her from the team. Iron Man, a former alcoholic himself, then helped Carol overcome her alcoholism and stabilized her powers, and in the process their friendship deepened considerably.

After her recovery, the Avengers invited Carol back again, and she accepted. Later, she voluntarily left the team to join SHIELD and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. During this time, she set aside her Ms. Marvel costume and wore a militaristic-looking uniform with armor plating on the chest and shoulders, a costume which became associated with her Warbird code name. She also employed her expertise with dealing with super-villains to become a parole officer for the new Thunderbolts.

After the Scarlet Witch tragically went insane, she used her vast probability-altering powers to create the House of M – an alternate reality where mutants became the ruling class of humanity, while normal humans became the oppressed class. Earth's heroes were eventually able to reverse what the Scarlet Witch had done and, after reality had reverted back to normal, Carol was among the few heroes who could remember what had happened during her time in the House of M. There, she had truly realized her full potential as Ms. Marvel and had become one of Earth's most renowned and universally admired heroes, essentially becoming that reality's version of Wonder Woman. Inspired by her House of M self, Carol decided to revitalize her superhero career and become the best hero she could be. She quit her Homeland Security job and even turned down an offer to join the New Avengers. Deciding to operate as an independent superhero once again, she changed her code name back to Ms. Marvel and resumed wearing her signature Ms. Marvel costume.

During the Civil War, Ms. Marvel decided to become pro-registration, out of loyalty to the U.S. government and also to her longtime friend Iron Man, who had offered to lead the pro-registration forces. She joined a team to help enforce the Super-Human Registration Act alongside Iron Man. She worked with Wonder Man and Arachne to help train new superheroes while also hunting down anti-registration heroes.

Carol soon learned that Arachne was a double agent who was using her position to secretly feed vital information to the anti-registration forces. Carol felt that she had no choice but to turn Arachne in. As Ms. Marvel, she hunted down Arachne, defeated her in front of Arachne’s own daughter, and took her into custody. The friendship between the two women was destroyed by this encounter, and Carol had considerable regrets afterward. Arachne eventually escaped custody, returned to her daughter, and moved to Canada to become a member of Omega Flight.

Later, Carol paid a visit to a young Hispanic superheroine named Araña to convince her to register. Because Araña idolized Ms. Marvel she was happy to comply, after which Carol trained Araña to be a superhero. Unfortunately, Araña was badly injured during a mission, causing Araña's father to forbid Carol from seeing Araña again.

Rogue later paid Carol an unexpected visit. The animosity between the two women had subsided at this point, since they were now both well aware of each other's impressive super-hero careers and realized that they should be allies. However, Carol's emotional scars ran deep and she still did not fully trust her old adversary. Rogue informed Carol of a problem -- there was now another Carol, a much more belligerent one, that was being detained at the Xavier Institute. This Carol, first encountered by Beast, was an alternate-Earth version of Carol who still called herself Warbird and wore the armor-plated Warbird uniform. It was revealed that on her own Earth, Warbird became a serious alcoholic because of what Rogue did to her, and her world eventually was destroyed while she was incapable of saving it. Warbird would then be tossed to different universes before landing in Marvel's main reality (also known as Earth-616).

After meeting Warbird herself, Carol quickly became disgusted with her alternate-Earth counterpart's uncompromising and hostile attitude. A violent battle between Carol and Warbird soon broke out. Rogue tried to help, but Carol, in the heat of battle subconsciously thinking of the mutant as her old enemy again, lashed out at Rogue and broke her ribs. After Rogue was incapacitated, Warbird informed Carol of her true intentions -- that she had already traveled to many different Earths, killing both the Rogue and Carol of each Earth. Carol, appalled at how evil her alternate-Earth version had become, attacked Warbird again and defeated her. Warbird was taken into custody and imprisoned in a maximum-security facility. Meeting the alternate-Earth Warbird caused Carol to do some serious soul-searching, and she wondered if she ever truly forgave Rogue for what the mutant had done to her years ago.

Ms. Marvel then took on a familiar foe from her past, A.I.M., as M.O.D.O.K.'s son tried to blow up Seattle by using his father as a bomb. Ms. Marvel was caught in the explosion when she attempted to stop it, but completely regenerated from it.

Afterward, it came to Ms. Marvel's attention that super-powered women were disappearing around the world, with colleagues like Tigra , Stature, Dusk, Silverclaw, and even Araña included among the missing. Carol took this personally and began an intense investigation in order to locate and rescue the women. She eventually discovered that they were being held on a remote island and mind-controlled by the Puppet Master in order to build himself a slave army. Ms. Marvel attacked his stronghold, but had to battle and defeat Tigra and the other mind-enslaved women when the Puppet Master ordered them to kill her. After Ms. Marvel dismantled the Puppet Master's operation and freed his captives, he took his own life by blowing himself up. Ms. Marvel realized that she could have stopped him, but was so angered by what he had done that she had allowed the bomb to go off. She regenerated from the explosion and lied to her team about not being able to prevent the Puppet Master's suicide.

The alien being called Cru then appeared at the end of this arc, and revealed that 'she' was the reason that Ms. Marvel was regenerating, because a part of her was inside Ms. Marvel. It actually turned out that the Brood destroyed Cru's home planet, not the other way around. Cru unlocked Ms. Marvel's old Binary powers, giving her a chance to battle and defeat an old enemy, the Brood Queen. The Brood Queen killed Cru, but Ms. Marvel smartly used a bomb to make the Brood Queen explode.

Iron Man asked Ms. Marvel to lead a new government-sanctioned team of Avengers, which she accepted; the two picked a team together. During their first mission, the Mighty Avengers fought the new incarnation of Ultron. Ms. Marvel absorbed energies from Ultron during their battle; after having SHIELD scientists examine the energies, she stopped missiles from hitting New York by diverting them upwards. She then used the energy she absorbed from the missiles to stop the Sentry when he went crazy.

When the Mighty Avengers and SHIELD launched an attack on Doctor Doom, Ms. Marvel was again team leader, along with Iron Man. When the Sentry and Iron Man returned from the past, she flew to them, urging them to take cover before the place exploded. They survived the explosion and continued with the invasion. In the end, they prevailed and Doom was taken into custody.

On a mission to Japan (in which Ms. Marvel did not participate), the Avengers discovered that the assassin known as Elektra had been replaced by an agent of the shape-shifting alien race known as the Skrulls. They soon learned that many more Skrull agents, in disguise as other Earth heroes, were spearheading an imminent invasion of Earth by the Skrull Empire. It was nearly impossible to determine who might be a Skrull, resulting in Earth's heroes, already paranoid from the recent Civil War, viewing each other with great suspicion. Iron Man, as the head of SHIELD, observed secret surveillance footage showing Carol Danvers seemingly being in two different places at the same time. Iron Man told SHIELD Agent Sum that one of the Carols must be a Skrull in disguise, and had surveillance intensified on Ms. Marvel.

Back in New York, Ms. Marvel was still investigating AIM and was unaware that she had fallen under SHIELD scrutiny. She performed a routine check-up which unexpectedly yielded the location of a hidden AIM base. After a suspicious delivery truck with unknown cargo left the base, she decided to follow it rather than attack. It turned out that the truck contained a hostile alien life form, and after she intervened, she discovered that it was a Super-Skrull with the combined powers of several of the X-Men. She battled the Super-Skrull, who teleported away using Nightcrawler's teleportation power after noting that Ms. Marvel "smelled of his true prey," which was enough to help him continue on his "true mission."

Ms. Marvel thought through the people she had seen earlier that day and grew concerned that the Super-Skrull's actual target may have been an associate named William Wagner, with whom she recently had a brief romantic relationship. She urgently called him via cell phone and a surprised-sounding William answered, but before the conversation went anywhere Ms. Marvel heard him scream and drop the phone. She flew at top speed to his apartment, only to find William sprawled dead in the bedroom. As she checked William's body, Agent Sum arrived, armed with a SHIELD weapon designed to take down superhumans and threatening to shoot her if she did not surrender.

Realizing that she had been set up, Ms. Marvel thought fast and managed to escape Agent Sum, but was confronted by more of her own SHIELD colleagues, the super-powered agents Sleepwalker and Machine Man. Unable to convince them of the truth and not wanting to attack her own teammates, she flew away but was followed by Machine Man, who gave her no choice but to turn and fight. Ms. Marvel reluctantly tore Machine Man to pieces, knowing that he could easily reconstruct himself later, but was then attacked by a duplicate Ms. Marvel, resulting in much confusion. The elite SHIELD unit known as Operation: Lightning Storm arrived and, unable to distinguish which Ms. Marvel was Carol Danvers and which was a Skrull agent, apprehended both of them and took them into custody.

Carol (the true Ms. Marvel) was later freed from her cell by Agent Sum, but then her danger sense kicked in and she struck him down, believing him to be a Skrull. When he fell and didn't revert to Skrull form, she thought that she had made a mistake. But at that point the real Agent Sum entered the room, and the fallen "Agent Sum" reverted to his Skrull form -- the same X-Men-powered Super-Skrull that Ms. Marvel had fought earlier. Ms. Marvel, Agent Sum, and other SHIELD agents all attacked the Super-Skrull, eventually knocking him into the area where the second Ms. Marvel was being detained. That "Ms. Marvel" finally reverted to her true Skrull form, and revealed that William Wagner was still alive and that she had merely disguised herself as William's body in Carol's apartment in order to frame Carol. William himself later appeared and revealed that he was actually a Kree agent sent to Earth to investigate the recent activities of the Skrulls, as the two races were long-time mortal enemies.

In the core Secret Invasion storyline, Ms. Marvel flew with the Mighty Avengers to the Savage Land. Iron Man's armor became infected with a Skrull virus, so Ms. Marvel pulled Tony Stark out of the armor and flew him away to the base where the fugitive New Avengers (composed entirely of non-registered heroes) were captured on their first mission. Stark told her to leave and return to the mainland in order to gather the Initiative so they could be ready for the Skrull invasion. However, it was too late and the Initiative was scattered. Ms. Marvel, the only hero left in Manhattan to face the invasion, made the decision that the city would not be taken as long as she was alive.

The battle ensued, and Ms. Marvel fought the entire Skrull invasion force harder than she ever fought a battle in her life. In addition to the countless Skrull soldiers, she had to contend with numerous Super-Skrulls, including an unprecedented giant version that could adopt virtually any power it wanted. Despite the overwhelming odds, Ms. Marvel prevailed, almost single-handedly preventing the Skrulls from taking the city before their ultimate defeat at the hands of Earth's heroes.

Afterward, the government made Tony Stark the scapegoat of the invasion and forced him to step down as head of SHIELD. The organization was re-named HAMMER and restructured from top to bottom. Norman Osborn, a former super-villain who was now seen as a hero after the invasion, was put in charge of both HAMMER and the new government-sanctioned team of Avengers. Osborn issued a warrant for Stark's arrest, forcing Tony into hiding. Osborn then summoned Ms. Marvel to his headquarters in Avengers Tower and gave her an ultimatum: Join his new Avengers team under his command, or be considered a criminal like Stark and placed under arrest. Ms. Marvel, knowing Osborn for what he truly was, rejected the offer and blasted free of the Tower before she could be apprehended. She then joined the renegade New Avengers and was elected the team's second-in-command.

Osborn realized that the fugitive Carol Danvers, like Tony Stark, was very dangerous to his future plans. He recruited the terrorist Ghazi Rashid, an old enemy of Carol's from her CIA days, to kill Ms. Marvel. Osborn used a super-drug known as 'Ascension' to give Rashid superhuman powers formidable enough to succeed in the task. Only a short time later, Ms. Marvel encountered Rashid, who attacked with lethal force. Though she was experiencing power burnout at the time, Ms. Marvel overcame the attack and managed to defeat the villain. In the process, however, she overloaded, and it seemed that the original Ms. Marvel was now dead.

Satisfied that Carol had been eliminated, Osborn hand-picked his own team of Avengers, mostly choosing former Thunderbolts. This team became known as the Dark Avengers, since it was both composed of and led by former super-villains in the guise of heroes. He placed Karla Sofen, formerly the villainess Moonstone, in the guise of Ms. Marvel. A stunning blonde similar in appearance to Carol, Karla was suited in a variation of Carol's original red-and-blue Kree-oriented costume and became the version of Ms. Marvel that was exposed to the public eye. She took on a more brutal role of crime enforcer, killing rather than apprehending dangerous criminals. The public reaction to this new Ms. Marvel was mixed.

Some time after the apparent demise of Carol Danvers, there were various world sightings of several brightly-colored feminine energy beings, seeking special genetically engineered creations of AIM. Wherever the beings appeared, they left death in the wake of their search. While this was happening, Karla Sofen, in the guise of Osborn's Ms. Marvel, used the weapon of an AIM splinter cell against itself. In the process, she rescued an assembly of multiple telepathic genetic fetuses, engineered from both the MODOC and Storyteller protocols. She discovered that both she and the energy beings sought the "babies," and ended up doing battle with one of them.

Later, when Wolverine, Spider-Man, and even Deadpool became involved in the fight for possession of the "babies," it was revealed that these energy beings were actually Carol Danvers herself, split into all of her various Kree energy patterns. After the New Avengers helped her gather enough of the "babies" and put them together, their combined power was used to fuse Carol back into a single being, paving the way for a fateful final encounter between Carol Danvers and Karla Sofen. In the ensuing battle, Carol decisively defeated Karla and reclaimed her rightful name and role as Ms. Marvel.

Ms. Marvel later fought in the climactic struggle against Osborn's Dark Avengers during the Siege of Asgard. She arrived at the battlefield set up on the Asgardian ruins and helped Spider-Man defeat his arch-enemy Venom, who was on Osborn's side of the conflict. But during the fight, Venom's alien symbiote suit latched onto Ms. Marvel and tried to turn her into a brand new host for itself. Spider-Man helped Ms. Marvel free herself from the symbiote, which then re-joined with its human host Mac Gargan. Venom then revealed that while in connection with Ms. Marvel, it had sensed that she harbored a secret affection for Spider-Man. Angered and embarrassed, Ms. Marvel took down Venom herself and flew Spider-Man to the Asgardian battlefield to join with the other heroes. The Siege ended with the total defeat of Osborn's forces thanks to the combined efforts of all of the heroes involved, led by Captain America (Steve Rogers, back from the dead after seemingly being assassinated after the Civil War), Iron Man, and Thor.

The defeat of Osborn and his Dark Avengers ushered in a new era of Marvel history, known as the Heroic Age. The Superhuman Registration Act was repealed, and the original "Big Three" of the Avengers (Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor) decided to establish three separate teams of Avengers in order to better serve and protect the public. Ms. Marvel was once again elected second-in-command of the latest New Avengers team, led by Luke Cage and headquartered in the restored Avengers Mansion. The team's current roster includes Carol's longtime friends Wolverine, Spider-Man, and the Thing.

With the new Marvel event, Ms. Marvel became part of the Secret Avengers and was part of the group who were sent into space to try to stop the Phoenix Force from reaching Earth. Her teammates were Thor, Noh-Varr, War Machine, Captain Britain, Vision and Beast. The first time they went straight up against the Phoenix Force, they failed but the second time, Thor was able to send the Phoenix away for a time. Afterwards, Captain Marvel made his return and Ms. Marvel went with him and Noh-Varr to the Kree Empire. She showed that she is still in love with him and they kissed but also that she does not know he is not the real Captain Marvel.

During a battle with the Absorbing Man, Captain America urged Carol (who was dressed in a new costume) to take on the mantle of Captain Marvel. Hesitant, she decided to initially decline his offer. Whilst pondering her life on the fringes of the Earth's atmosphere, Carol remembered Helen Cobb; a late friend, mentor and fellow pilot who had recently passed away. Helen had emphasized the idea of being the best you could be, and not allowing anything to hold you back. With this in mind, Carol chose to take the mantle of Captain Marvel. Whilst trying to break Helen's previous flight record, Carol encountered engine failure. During her attempt to regain control of the aircraft by utilizing her powers, she lost consciousness. Upon awakening, she found herself to be in a forested area, with no memory of how she got there - or, indeed, whether she managed to avoid crashing the plane (she was unable to find a landing site). She soon encountered enemy forces, who briefly held her prisoner. Before long the enemy forces encountered the all-female Banshee Squadron—a small camaraderie of World War II soldiers—and it became apparent to Carol that she was certainly not in the present day. After escaping back to her own time, Carol was invited by Monica Rambeau, another Avenger who has gone by the name Captain Marvel over the years, to uncover the mystery which surrounded the disappearance of various ships and planes. After finding an underwater graveyard of the missing vehicles, a huge robot emerged from the water, building itself from the wreckage. After a short battle, and with the robot not yet defeated, Carol absorbed Monica in her energized state. Using the excess energy, Carol unleashed a powerful energy blast at the robot, and it was defeated.

Back in New York, Carol went about her daily routine, still tormented with painful headaches. After running a few errands, as dictated by Tony Stark, Carol goes to her doctor's appointment and is told that she has a brain lesion. As a result, she can no longer use her power of flight. (Presumably, the excess air pressure would aggravate the damage caused.) After promptly ignoring the doctor's orders when she confronted the villain Deathbird, and being knocked unconscious as a result, Carol woke up in hospital and was told that if she continues to use her ability to fly she could sustain permanent brain damage, in particular permanent and irreparable long and short term memory loss. Undeterred and eager for a rematch with Deathbird, Carol went in search of the villain, helped by Captain America's upgraded motorbike. The situation is later revealed to have been masterminded by a returned Yon-Rogg, and in the ensuing battle, Carol manages to defeat the villain, but at the cost of her memories.

Following this she enters into a romantic relationship with James Rhodes (although she would later end it without reason, though many would blame a sudden descent back into alcoholism), and later joins the Guardians of the Galaxy. After a time skip, she is also seen heading up the joint S.H.I.E.L.D./Avengers task force aimed at capturing the Illuminati. She operates as the team's field leader while Steve Rogers directs missions from a central command location. During the final Universal Incursion, Carol is one of the few heroes who manages to escape the destruction. As a result, she is one of only a handful of the residents on Doctor Doom's new Battleworld that remember the prior universe.

Oh god, you kept the creepiest storyline in all of Marvel in there.

Ace Flyer

Eh, I had to, it was on her page :p Gives me a good enough excuse to turn her off of men though.

Juggtacular

There's been some creepier ones. Fenris for example. The mutant twins who hold hands to use their powers...and they're creepy and blond and fucking each other and finishing each others sentences...sometimes while fucking I assume.

Purple Man while controlling a woman married her, raped her, and then she had his child who grew up to have his exact same powers.

Hmmmm, what else?

There was Old Man Logan, where Bruce Banner finally went crazy after the equivalent of 1,000,000 gamma bombs went off and bombarded him with even more radiation. And started fucking his cousin She-Hulk because she was and I quote: "The only one who could keep the pace!"  And they fucked and had inbred, cannibalistic children and grandchildren. And they ate Wolverine's family. So he killed them all, and after throwing a cow at Logan, Bruce transformed and ate him. Then Logan cut his way out of his body, klling him, and then he took the last remaining Banner child to raise as his own. Half out of kindness, half as a final fuck you to the people who ruined his happiness.

Marvel can get really dark.

Honestly, I found the Avengers storyline creepier, largely because of the way it was presented. it was presented as though it wasn't horrifying creepy, and the other Avengers pretty much said it was okay, which is just... screwed up.

Oh, by the way! I know Squirrel Girl has been retconned to be technically not a mutant. This is stupid, and will be ignored. I know what Marvel did it (Fox has the right to all movies made involving the mutants of the Marvel Universe. Even though Squirrel Girl has little connection to the X-Men, so long as she is a mutant, no Squirrel Girl Movie. So she's been retconned. They actually make this clear in the comic, with her saying "I am Biologically and Legally distinct from a mutant) but it is still stupid!

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Mary Jane Watson
Alias: Red Sonja, Crimson She-Devil, Sonja Majeure, Radiant Mistress, Sonjita
Age: 26
Sexuality: Omnisexual
Part of New York Residing In: Brooklyn

== Physical Description == 

Sonja, as she prefers to be called most times, is 5'9" tall with thick, red hair and blue-green eyes.  Typically, she looks like just another normal, if pretty, young girl in her mid-twenties, seemingly unremarkable and likely not terribly strong.  However, when it's time to get down to business, she transforms into a striking, well-muscled warrior woman with flashing blue eyes and a penchant for scale-mail bikinis. 

== Persona ==           

Sonja is all sass, ass and female empowerment.  The lingering aspects of Mary Jane's personality temper her rough edges slightly, and make it easier for her to live in the modern world of New York, without drawing her sword every time someone pisses her off.  She has a close, intimate relationship with beer, and an unapologetic hedonism that make her quite good company in the right circumstances.  She doesn't suffer fools lightly, though, unless she finds them amusing and is always willing to prove to any misogynist that women are just as capable of doing anything a man can do.  Sometimes better.  She' fully invested in the idea that one can be both strong and feminine, and finds those who disagree with this premise limited in their thinking.

Sonja values loyalty and honor.  She believes in defending the weak and innocent from those who would harm them or take advantage of their inability to defend themselves.  She's always eager to pull the rug out from under the corrupt or evil, whether it means defeating them in battle, exposing them for what they truly are, or robbing them blind and distributing their wealth to those more deserving.

== Key Skills ==


  • Peak-Level Athlete: Red Sonja is in peak human physical condition. She is imbued with the maximum strength, speed, endurance, agility, and reflexes that a human female could possess without being considered superhuman.


  • Weapon Master: Red Sonja is a virtually unparalleled sword-master, having fought and defeated countless enemies with her blade.  Though the sword is Sonja’s weapon of choice, she is nearly as proficient with other melee weapons and can gain expertise with unfamiliar ones with minimal training. She is an accomplished archer and demonstrates remarkable accuracy with any distance weapon. Sonja’s mastery of arms includes being able to quickly improvise and construct weapons with any available materials at hand, so that even when seemingly disarmed, she is rarely weaponless.


  • Unarmed Combat: Red Sonja has mastered the martial arts disciplines of her era and is a deadly fighter even without any weapons. She has taken down many enemies larger than herself merely with her fists and feet.


  • Berserker Strength: When greatly angered or outnumbered, Red Sonja can go into a berserker fury, significantly increasing her strength and deadliness in battle. She has single-handedly annihilated waves of armed opponents while in this state, literally becoming a one-woman army.


  • Tracking: Red Sonja has spent much time traveling the diverse and dangerous landscape of the Hyborian age and is a gifted ranger and tracker. She can navigate and survive nearly any form of terrain and hunt down almost any quarry. She is also adept at covering her tracks and leaving little trace of her passing.


  • Stamina: Red Sonja's physical stamina is at peak human level due to rigorous conditioning. She can exert herself at maximum effort for far longer than most humans can endure. Being from the harsh and wintery climate of the Hyrkanian steppes, Red Sonja has built up a high tolerance for adverse environmental conditions and is seemingly impervious to cold, even when clad only in her metal bikini.


  • Stealth: Red Sonja possesses catlike grace and can move about in near-silence in order to avoid detection, making good use of shadows and any other available cover. She is also highly skilled at disguise, camouflage, and infiltration.

== Advantages ==


  • Intelligence:  Red Sonja has a mind for battle tactics, but Mary Jane is highly intelligent in her own right.  While not nearly at the level of Peter, she has more street smarts and common sense than he does.  Her more practical intelligence is coupled with a good mind for science and math, as well as a keen understanding of literature.  While no one will be extolling her brilliance as genius, one might say her knowledge and mental acuity is more well-rounded than most.
  • Socially Skilled:  Mary Jane is good with people.  She genuinely cares about them, and wants to help them.  Where Sonja will fight to save a person's life, Mary Jane's influence leads to the attempt to care for their emotional and mental well-being as well.  She's friendly and empathetic, knowing well the strain of being a normal person suddenly caught up in the lives of super-heroes and super-villains.  She also knows how difficult being the hero can be, and she is always willing to lend an ear or shoulder to those who just need to unburden themselves for a while.
  • Attractive:  It's an unavoidable fact of life that a pretty girl can influence others, even without trying to do so.  Mary Jane is not above using her innocent good-looks to manipulate others, when necessary, and Sonja considers her looks merely another weapon in her arsenal.  If her appearance serves as a distraction in combat, well, then her opponent will learn a valuable lesson about the importance of focus in battle.  How long they will have to appreciate the schooling they've had is debatable, of course.
  • Strong Constitution:  Whether it's poison, rotting food or strong alcohol, Sonja seems to have an iron stomach and indefatigable vigor.  She can get uproariously drunk, and yet never seem to lose her edge or pass out from drink.  She never wakes with a hangover, and, likewise, she never seems to grow ill.  She can drink the entire bar under the table, then polish off several orders of hot wings and wake with the sun the next morning without the slightest ill-effects from the night before.

== Disadvantages ==


  • Stranger in a Strange Land:  Despite the fact that Mary Jane's consciousness has melded with Sonja's, she is still displaced in time and often finds herself confused by the modern world.  Politics, social mores and money seem to be the hardest for her to wrap her mind around.  She has decided that modern politics were designed by madmen, and unless absolutely necessary, she ignores them for the foolishness that they are.  Trying to get along in the modern world, especially in a city like New York, takes a lot more effort, though.  She can't simply ignore the social niceties, or requirements, and laws that govern how we treat one another, or behave in public, but sometimes she finds herself unable to resist the urge to take a swing at someone, or point out the stupidity of modern ideas of impropriety.  She's gotten better, though.  It's been at least a month since she started a fight in a bar, or grabbed a stranger's junk on the train because they thought her ass was a good resting place for their hand.
  • Short Fuse:  Sonja's got a temper.  She's a berserker, after all, a barbarian warrior living in a city where 'Fuck you' is synonymous with 'Good morning'.  Mary Jane's influence has made her slightly less volatile, but she's still what she is and she doesn't think she should have to pretend to be anything else.  At least she stopped carrying her weapons with her all the time, so now the worst she can do in a fight is beat someone bloody and broken.  But, hey, she'll call them an ambulance...most of the time.
  • Dual-Minds:  Sonja and Mary Jane are like two personalities living in a single mind, blended together incompletely, like a marble cake mix.  Most of the time they manage this unconventional living arrangement well, but sometimes there is an inner struggle and this can lead to some pretty interesting situations.  In the heat of battle, Sonja will sometimes feel Mary trying to influence her to be merciful, or Mary will feel Sonja's anger flaring at inopportune times.  If there's time, they typically try to work things out amicably, but if the situation doesn't allow for it, one or the other will exert their will over the other and this can lead to hurt feelings and resentment.  Plus, it just looks weird when she argues with herself.
  • Hedonist:  Sonja fights hard and plays even harder.  She has a taste for alcohol, food and sex, and believes that there is no such thing as too much.  She doesn't believe in moderation or shame, finding both concepts strangely puritanical in modern society, especially one that seems to only pay such ideals lip-service.
== Background ==

Sonjita was the daughter of the chief of a Hyrkanian village. The village was attacked by vicious raiders and Sonjita's family and the rest of the villagers were slaughtered, leaving Sonjita the lone survivor.  She escaped into the wild and relied on her own hunting skills to track down and kill the raiders one by one. She was then captured by slavers and forced to fight for her life in an arena for three years, through which she gained her unrivaled fighting skill and became known by her 'arena' name: "Red Sonja."

After she escaped her chains, freed the other slaves and lead them to slaughter the slavers that had been holding them all captive, she struck out on her own.  She supported herself by serving as a bodyguard, or thief, in between fighting the forces of evil and the corrupt, and defending the innocent and weak from harm.  Almost every story about Red Sonja begins with the line 'She went to a bar/tavern and got drunk', and ends with her kicking ass and not giving a good goddamned about anyone's name.  Her life was fairly simple and she liked it that way.  Then, much to her annoyance, shit went sideways.

Everything seems ordinary in New York City as Spider-Man swings around town and fights a group of bad guys ... all while talking on his cell phone to MJ! At the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Senator Thomas is attending a major art exhibit while struggling with his conscience over some shady dealings with his confidant, Reilly. J Jonah Jameson welcomes the Senator to the exhibit with kind words, hoping to score an interview. Thomas agrees to it, but his eyes are drawn to a unique necklace on display. Though the curator, Professor Jones, protests, Thomas puts on the necklace. This in turn releases the imprisoned spirit of the sorcerer Kulan Gath. Using his vast powers, he reshapes New York City into his own medieval/Hyborian version of itself. Spider-Man seems to be the only one unaffected by the spell.

People are still in need of help, though, so he springs to action to save the commoners. As he does so, Gath wishes Professor Jones to be his scribe. Refusing, Gath kills him and then requests Jameson to take over the duties. Gath then conjures up a sword and tells how Spider-Man and Red Sonja foiled his plans before when they teamed up. This time he wishes to pit them against each other so they will be occupied. He calls forth Mary Jane to claim the sword and become Red Sonja. Spider-Man continues to fight his assailants, who have somehow become goblins in the meantime. Even though he saves the people, they fear Spider-Man as a demon. Getting away, he sees what used to be the Met and a strange glow. He goes to it to investigate and sees Mary Jane climbing the walls to get to the sword on the roof. Confronting her after she grabs it, he is instead faced with Red Sonja.

Red and Spidey fight, until Spidey manages to pin Sonja down long enough to explain the situation to her.  They end up teaming up and manage to defeat Kulan Gath, after which Sonja returns to her own time.  This happens again, with slight variations on the theme, but with the same inevitable outcome.

So, you might ask, how does Sonja become meshed with Mary Jane in this current incarnation?  Well, I'm getting to that.

After her first death, and subsequent reincarnation as a noblewoman, Sonja was once again trained to fight by Osin, her long-time companion.  However, she was once again defeated and killed, at which point her soul found refuge in Mary Jane, drawn by her familiarity with the young woman from their previous encounters.  There was a period of adjustment, of course, wherein Mary Jane and Red Sonja fought for control of the body they now shared.  But, they both began to understand that they needed one another.  Without Sonja, Mary Jane was unable to fight effectively and she found that she enjoyed being a hero.  Sonja, likewise, came to understand that without Mary Jane, she could not survive in the modern world.  So, they came to an understanding between themselves.

Granted, it's not a perfect marriage, and sometimes they grate against one another.  But, that's just par for the course with roommates.  Neither is quite certain why they exist as they do, what allowed Sonja to escape death or what power allows for her spirit to bring about physical changes to Mary Jane's form.  But, Sonja is wary to dig too deeply into matters, afraid of discovering some truth that would make her continued existence an affront to her beliefs and honor.  Mary Jane's curiosity is strong, but she enjoys the advantages of having Red Sonja living within her too much to risk tempting fate.

== Personal Information ==

Legal Name: Wanda Marya Maximoff
Alias: The Scarlet Witch
Age: 30
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In: A Small House on the Outskirts of Manhattan (That She Owns)

== Physical Description == 

Wanda isn't exactly a physical presence at 5'7" and 132lbs, but not all power is seen on the surface. She wears her brown hair loose, long, and curly when outside of her of her costume. Sometimes, she wears make-up, but overall keeps her skin healthy. Her "casual" clothing sticks to red and blacks, and golds, a nod to her gypsy heritage.
         

== Key Skills ==

Witchcraft – Cursed by an alien force with hopes that her child’s body would eventually become a host to said force, Wanda is gifted with sorcerous powers along with her mutation. Trained by Agatha Harkness, Wanda’s magical capabilities do not hinder her mutation, but help to enhance and focus it – she also demonstrates an affinity for the natural elements and the organic powers that are a witch’s bread and butter. Due to this training, she has also become a focal point for the earth’s magic, letting her draw power from it and move power through it.

Unarmed Combat – Along with her mutant abilities, Wanda has been trained in hand-to-hand combat by Captain America and Hawkeye, some of her fellow Avengers.

Tactics – When her mind is clear and she in control, Wanda is one of the best strategists that serves on the Avengers.

Probability – Scarlet Witch’s domain. The extent of her powers, to this day, is still being recorded, but so far: she is able to fire spheres of hex magic (these have varying effects on their target that range from comical to devastating) that are dependent  on her line of sight and vary in strength (depending on her mental state and physical condition). The House of M Incident demonstrated at Scarlet Witch’s powers can become a global phenomenon, capable of disabling the Mutant X-Gene, bring the dead back to life, manifesting as red beams of light, and completely transforming people and matter.

Flight – By warping the fields around her, Scarlet Witch is able to fly.

Telekinesis – Scarlet Witch can levitate objects and manipulate them. She is also able to make telekinetic forcefields. The extent of her telekinesis is unknown, but she relies mainly on her probability-altering abilities.

Illusions and Constructions – Scarlet Witch is able to warp reality enough to create illusions. This is different from her ability to craft constructions, however, which are physical images capable of anything – she has been known to conjure entire armies to assist her. 


== Advantages ==

Wanda has proven again and again to have the ability to shape and redefine the world because she is the center of the Earth's magic. She is a natural witch, a mutant, a retired Avenger - there are very places that Wanda hasn't been to the dark corners of.

== Disadvantages ==

Being a Witch and being a Mutant are nothing when compared to being the mother of children who turned out to be the shards of Mephisto. Wanda’s greatest weakness is her mental state – she is capable of losing it with the best of them. Her negative moods effect her natural magic and her mutant ability to control probability.

== Background and Persona ==

Wanda is an Avenger. After stumbling around with the Mutant population, she finds her home among Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and it is a life defining choice for her. Because of the Avengers, she met the witch who would help her to control her mutation and powers, and eventually, she meets Vision – the android who she would become married to. Their relationship resulted in two children, who were actually shards of a soul belonging to Mephisto – they were reabsorbed into their proper body and the even destroyed Wanda. Although her memories of the even were removed by her mentor, Agatha Harkness, and with her marriage with Vision falling apart, the villain Immortus informed the West Coast Avengers (whom Wanda was the leader of) that he had bent the relationship to break Vision.

Eventually, it came to light that Wanda had been a mother and when seeking the truth, Wanda found it – and murdered her mentor for removing the memories. This was followed by a slew of directed violence towards the Avengers by the Scarlet Witch. The attacks were personal, coming from Wanda’s grief-stricken subconscious and were only ended when she was defeated by Doctor Strange . Moved to Genosha to recover, Wanda is put into a coma while her fate is decided – someone with her power should not be allowed to walk the line between good and evil. Wanda creates a new reality in response to the devastation that follows her brother, Pietro’s, insistence that she make a new reality where her fate isn’t decided by others. Wanda utters three words, warping reality, removing the X-Gene from most mutants.

In exchange for the new reality, Wanda loses all of her memories and falls under the protection of Doctor Doom. After she is rescued, her deeds fall on her shoulders and she attempts to commit suicide – stopped by the reincarnation of her sons. She is convinced to reverse the damage caused by M-Day (her willing away mutants), and even that is met with tragedy – ending in a spell that grants Doctor Doom not only her powers, but the powers of her son, Wiccan. She redeems herself, however, by helping to remove the Phoenix Force from the Earth with the help of the Avengers and the X-Men.

After the events of AXIS and the Secret Wars, Wanda is spinning. No longer an active Avenger, Wanda must figure out where she belongs in this All-New All-Different world.

Legal Name: Gwendolyne "Gwen" Stacy
Alias: The Radioactive Spider-Gwen
Age: 17
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In: Manhattan

== Physical Description == 

Gwen Stacy is beautiful in that classical American beauty-queen-in-progress kind of way: blonde-haired, blue-eyed, and modestly proportioned. She is 5'7", 130lbs, and well-toned - but, being a drummer and a crimefighter will do that to a girl.

== Persona and Background ==    

In some versions of Earth, Gwen Stacy is the almost-Mrs.Peter Parker, in others she is a memory that follows the Spider Man around. This is not any of those Gwen Stacy's, this is your radioactive, neighborhood friendly Spider-Gwen and she is bee's knees. Gwen Stacy is a police officer's daughter, a drummer in a band called the Mary Jane's, a chemistry nerd, and when she has time: a spider. This easy personality doesn't come without its own set of issues, however, and Gwen carries her own brand of Spider-guilt. In her reality, because she is bitten by the radioactive Spider, her version of Peter Parker dies and she is painted as a villain.

Her life is shaped by the events of the Spider-Verse, Secret Wars, and House of M in ways that even she hasn't quite started to see. After the Secret Wars, Gwen hopes to put her life back together in this new shared universe, graduate high school, and maybe finally find a boyfriend who she doesn't have to hide her mask from.       

== Key Skills ==

Agility: One of the perks of being bit is an inhuman agility. Gwen is able to perform acrobatic feats that would elude the average human.

Spidey Sense: Borderlining on precognition, Gwen is able to detect immediate danger around her and those she cares about. Spidey Senses give Gwen an edge in combat, acting in concert with her reactions. It functions identically to the other universes' Spider Man's.

Super Strength: Another perk of being radioactive and awesome. Gwen can throw a punch.

Unarmed Combat: Other than her webs, Gwen does not fight with weapons. Although she is young, she's quickly picked up how to fight. After interacting with other Spider Man's, she's started to practice the Way of the Spider.

Webs: The signature Spider moves. Gwen possess organic webbing that she produces as a side-effect of being bitten by the spider. Used to fight, move, catch - you dream it, the web is probably capable of doing it (within reason).

== Advantages ==

Youth, intelligence, radioactivity, police influence (she's the Captain's daughter).

== Disadvantages == 

Youth - Although Gwen has been doing the spider thing for a minute in her universe, she's now out in a singular universe and there are big bads waiting that she more than likely won't know how to deal with, at first.

Elemental Magic: Eden's inborn magical talents provide Lukasz the power to: control the elements; fly with respectable maneuverability; shield himself from harm; and move through solid objects.


== Advantages ==

Capture Teams: Through Eden's employer, the private superhuman monitoring group Aladdin, Lukasz has access to teams of specially trained and equipped troops to help capture dangerous supervillains.
Magical Artifacts: Lukasz has access to a wealth of magical artifacts, both from Archimage's collection in the pocket dimension within the Dark Witch's cloak; and those acquired from stage magician, and reluctant magic dealer, Edgar Strauss.


== Disadvantages ==

A Tight Leash: Eden's employer Aladdin will often force Lukasz into unsavory missions, reminding him that they still have Eden's son Gus Blake Jnr in containment for 'the young mutant's own safety.'
Not My Body: Whilst less of a problem with each passing year, Lukasz still encounters problems with Eden's body and how best to act in it.


== Background ==

Born over 1500 years ago, Lukasz grew to be a competent fighter and military strategist, eventually drawing the attention of an ancient magic user known as Archimage. Choosing to leave his old life to join eleven others in an eternal war against Archimage's brother, the everliving despot known as Boneyard, Lukasz traversed the multiverse and assumed control of another body with every death he endured.

Five years ago however everything changed, one of his fellow knights betrayed them all, Boneyard was able to overpower his brother and slay the eleven loyal knights, including Lukasz. However, Archimage had a contingency in place, transferring the souls of his three most trusted knights Lukasz, Hamath and Yaron into replacement bodies, although this did not save Hamath or Yaron from being permanently killed only days later.

For Lukasz things turned out far better, not that he'd initially agree, as he was transferred into the body of divorced mother of two Eden Blake.  Unbeknownst to Eden, she and her daughter were descendants of a magical bloodline which passed from mother to daughter.

With Eden's body Lukasz began to learn about magic, to use in his fight against Boneyard... however he detested her female form, considering it physically weak and as such inferior to the hundreds of male bodies he had stolen over the centuries.  He was also at odds with her children, seeing them as a nuisance, as where previously he had simply cut ties with his bodies' families now he was forced to provide for the children, although that didn't stop him from repeatedly offloading them on Eden's mother, a number of babysitters and even Eden's ex-husband.

As Mantra he would: gain employment with a private monitoring group focused on capturing, studying and controlling superhumans; go to the moon to encounter an ancient alien blackbox and cast out the souls of every body he'd possessed, excluding Eden's; discover the knight who betrayed their order and defeat him multiple times; free and mistakenly kill Archimage whilst successfully dethroning Boneyard; participate in the death of an Overgod alongside Thor and Loki; see the destruction of Boneyard; and pass on his mantle and powers to another, a former babysitter of Eden's children, Lauren Sherwood.

Emotionally he went through a number of changes as well: falling in love with Eden's spirit and consummating their love after he transferred himself into a perfect recreation of his original male body, only to be separated forever after Eden sacrificed herself so he could become Mantra again and protect her family; and over time Lukasz has also grown closer to Eden's children, promising to protect and care for them for Eden upon her death... although this became more complicated when Eden's son was empowered by dark energies and became fatally destructive.

Over the last few years, Lukasz has worked to be a good mother and help Evie with her developing powers, although recent events have also compelled him to assume the identity of the Dark Witch... until he can recover Manta's artifacts and resume his old superhero identity in the future.

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Amadeus Cho
Alias: Mastermind Excello | Hulk
Age: 19
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In: Penthouse in Manhattan


== Physical Description == 

Amadeus is a handsome young man, with piercing hazel eyes and a charming smile. He's got strong features and amazing hair. I dare you to say it's not awesome. You know it is. Due to his Asian heritage, his height tops out at a somewhat respectable six feet even after a massive growth spurt, which he's happy for since the doctor told him he wasn't supposed to make it past 5'5. He's muscled, but more like a runner than a fighter due to exercise, eating right, and a good metabolism.

Amadeus is also a Hulk, and when he transforms, he grows to a minimum of eight feet tall, turns green, and looks like all the muscles in the world belong to him and only him. He still looks like Amadeus, just a giant radioactive version...who still has you guessed it, amazing hair.

== Persona ==           

To be completely honest, at times Amadeus can be a bit of a dick. It's not intentional, but intelligence seems to push empathy and other "normal" traits out of the way. So most times he thinks solely with his brain, and not his feelings, which means a lot of the time he might say something blunt and incredibly rude, because it's the truth and needs to be said. Sometimes he has to remind himself that almost no one sees the world like him, so almost no one would understand why he acts the way he does, and explaining would be even more difficult than simply apologizing and trying to move on. He's working on it though, and he's making progress.

As he is one of the smartest people in existence, he can be a know it all at times(all the time), and he likes being right. If you can push past his brain though, you'll find a selfless(for the most part) and kind young man who wants to make the world a better place to live in and push the boundaries of human knowledge. He's not a great ladies man as girls make him nervous, which causes him to joke and try to look cool but usually doesn't end up working. But hey when you're one of the most developed hyperminds around, you can just do "magic" tricks and wing it.

Like several Hulks in the past, when Amadeus transforms, he retains his full intellect, although he does become more confident and aggressive.

== Key Skills ==

Hyper-Mind: Amadeus Cho’s mind operates like a hyper computer(hence the name Hyper-Mind), capable of rapidly and without mechanical aid perform an infinite number of unimaginable complex and simultaneous calculations, in his mind with minimal stimuli. He can quickly, simultaneously and perfectly analyze multiple information streams (e.g. threat assessment) and rapidly respond to changing tactical situations, by identifying the variables and quantum possibilities in any situation, and he uses this information to adjust the outcome to whichever is most favorable to him.

Because his mind operates like a hyper computer; he can process information quickly and this gives him a hyper-accelerated learning aptitude. He also possesses limitless information storage and retrieval, enhanced pattern solving/recognition, extremely high perception and observational skills, perfect deductive/reasoning skills and investigative skills, superhuman strategic/tactical analytical skills, and an eidetic memory (meaning that he never forgets anything and has perfect recall).

His hyper mind also makes him one of the most intelligent people on the planet, ranking him somewhere in the top ten smartest beings alongside Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Dr. Doom and Hank McCoy. The Eternal Ajak believes that Cho is actually more intelligent than some immortals, and he has claimed to Athena, who says that intelligence is essentially "pattern recognition", that he sees patterns better than 99.999999993% of people on Earth.

Hulking Out: Amadeus through as of yet unexplained means is now a Hulk. And not just any Hulk. His monstrous form seems to be almost identical to the original Hulk, i.e. Bruce Banner. With the difference being Amadeus looks like himself. When transformed, Amadeus possesses all the powers of a Hulk. Extreme strength, durability, healing, etc... And he has the potential to gain exponentially more power as a battle rages on.

== Advantages ==
1 - Intelligence - Amadeus is one of the top 10 smartest people in the world, and will tell anyone who'll listen he's actually number 1.
2 - Tech - Due to his genius and luck(which is really just statistical probability altered on varying levels by an almost infinite number of random x-factors), Cho has access to lots and lots of powerful technology that helps him in his never ending battle against evil...and idiocy. This includes a warddrobe of battle ready clothing(from 3 piece suits to jeans and sneakers) all with a built in AI, flight capabilities, and more. He also has his customized vespa, and a super computer crammed into the casing of an old gameboy. He also keeps a Bannertech forcefield generator just in case.
3 - Mace - After becoming the Prince of Power, Amadeus inherited Hercules' Adamantine Mace, and uses it regularly in combat, especially when he Hulks out.
4 - Hulk - He is a Hulk...nuff said.

== Disadvantages == 
1 - Human - Despite being a Hulk, that is a transformative process, and he doesn't want to test the theory that if he's hurt badly enough in human form, he may be killed before he can trigger the change.
2 - Intelligence - His high intelligence often means he treats people poorly because he naturally expects others around him to display similar intelligence. It's a trait all geniuses share unfortunately.
3 - Personality - Despite being a genius, he doesn't always act like it and his personality often times puts him in bad situations because he's doing the right thing.
4 - Teamwork - He knows he can depend on himself, but sometimes has trouble depending on others.

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Samuel Thomas Wilson
Alias: Previously Falcon | Currently Captain America
Age: 30
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In:
Harlem

== Physical Description == 

Even before his transformation, Sam was a big guy. 6'2, 245lbs of muscle built from years of struggling on the streets, and even more years of training and fighting with the best heroes this world had to offer.  He's always been a handsome guy, with broad shoulders, a killer smile and kind features. After being injected with the SSS, he's changed, but not much. Now he's 6'4, closer to 260lbs, but that's the only real difference.

== Persona ==           
Sam's life coming up was hard, and it shaped him to be that way. He lost his dad when he was 9, and his mother was killed several years later. Losing both parents at such a young age, in a place like Harlem made him a hard individual, tough and a hardass. Cap changed that though, helping Sam get back to who he truly is. He's an everyman, willing to fight for those who need it, whether they want his help or not. He tries to see the good in people, but has no problem realizing when there isn't any. He's fair and compromising, but knows how to be steadfast as well if the time comes. All in all, he's just a guy trying to do his best, and now he's trying to continue the legacy of Captain America as best he can.

== Key Skills ==
1. Master Martial Artist - After brutal and extensive training with Captain America in a plethora of martial arts, Sam has become one of the best fighters in the world; he's even defeated empowered members of the Wrecking Crew through skill and technique alone.

2. Master Acrobat - Again, thanks to the Captain, Sam's natural athleticism was trained and honed over the years and he was considered roughly an equal to Steve when it came to movement.

3. Master Aerialist - Simply put, Sam is one of the best flight fighters in the world, even better than people like Iron Man and Ms. Marvel due to him spending a majority of his time in the air.

== Advantages ==

1. Avian Telepathic Link - Due to Red Skull and a Cosmic Cube, Sam has an extremely powerful telepathic link with all species of birds. Through this link, he can command them similar to Namor commanding aquatic creatures. His link is most powerful with Redwing, his pet and best friend, but it extends to all avians. Beyond commands, he can see through the eyes of any bird in his telepathic vicinity, allowing him unparalleled tactical view of the area if any of his friends are around.

2. Super Soldier Serum - While originally Sam was Captain America in name and all other aspects, he was still Sam Wilson, Falcon under that costume. And truly that was good enough for him, as it was what he'd always known. However, there isn't a normal person alive who wouldn't give the chance to just once feel what it was like to be Captain America, the perfect human specimen. Well Sam got the chance. After the worlds collided and reality was brought back online, as Sam possessed the mantle of Captain America at the time, reality bestowed him with the abilities of Captain America. As a result, he now possesses the same strengths as Steve Rogers, such as enhanced speed, strength, stamina and the like.


== Disadvantages == 

1. Human - At the end of the day, Sam is a human. He can take a whole lot of punishment, but it is very capable of harming and killing him.

2. Self Doubt - Sam has taken on one of the heaviest burdens to bear the world has ever known. The mantle of Captain America. The symbol of everything that is good and righteous and just. Not just for America but the entire world and the galaxy at large considering all the places Steve's been. Every move he makes is criticized and broken down, more so by him than anyone. He wonders if he can ever be good enough to be the replacement the Captain thought he could be.

== Background ==

Falcon History

== Character Extras =
Tech/Equipment:

Captain America Uniform - A Vibranium microweave was added to the costume itself, making Falcon resistant to small arms fire. The entire system is controlled mentally through cybernetic circuitry in the Falcon's mask/goggles. A Vibranium microweave was added to the costume itself, making Falcon resistant to small arms fire. The entire system is controlled mentally through cybernetic circuitry in the Falcon's mask.

Wing Harness - An emitter array on Falcon's back houses Wakandan Vibrainum wings with a maximum wingspan of up to 50 feet (15 m). Controlled by a cybernetic link, the wings can be instantly reconfigured into "dozens of different cruise configurations". A "magnetic drive", in turn, provides the thrust needed to get Falcon airborne. The emitter also possesses GPS Jamming Devices that prevent satellite tracking, as well as interfere with infra-red tracking.

"The" Shield - Captain America's shield is made of a blend of metals so durable that it's for all intents and purporses indestructible barring molecular reconstruction or god-like abilities. It's perfectly balanced and can be bounced around like a pinball, ricocheting off surfaces and rebounding back to Sam. He's not quite as good as Steve, but he's good enough and constantly training to get better.

Here Be Nova

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==
Legal Name: Samuel Alexander   
Alias: Nova
Age: 17
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Part of New York Residing In: With his mom and sister in Carefree, Az sometimes stays in the Avengers Tower

== Physical Description == 

Sam is about 5’11 in height, with a lean and athletic frame earned through moderate, regular exercise because hey it’s good to bring a little more to the table than a magic helmet. He has a rather handsome face, framed by dark, tousled hair kept short with bright piercing blue eyes.

== Persona ==           

Before gaining the Black Nova helmet of his father Sam was a typical high schooler, he was reasonably intelligent but didn’t particularly excel in school due to lack of interest in academia. Instead his time was spent playing video games, listening to music, skateboarding and of course helping his drunk of a father clean the school because he was too drunk to do his damn job. One of these things he hated even more than school though, I’ll leave you to guess which. Of course that changed. So yea fairly typical teen, but when he put on the Black Nova helmet and became Nova, not much changed, he was still the same slightly goofy teenager he always was just that he instead filled his time with saving people and becoming the world’s coolest superhero.

==History ==
Like it says above Sam was a typical high school student growing up in the small boring town of Carefree, Arizona. He resented his drunk of a father, mainly because he was left to clean up after his messes, in some cases quite literally. He had grown up listening to his father’s tales of fighting aliens, traveling through space and saving the galaxy. As a child he loved him, as a teen he felt it was pathetic, telling him these stories as if silly fantasies would give him any more respect for the man, what was worth was that half the time he seemed like he actually believed the stories he was telling him. How pathetic was that? Of course that all changed when he woke up in his hospital bed with an annoying racoon and a smoking hot green lady standing at the edge of his bed. Being the cool headed and tough kid he was he did the only obvious thing, run away screaming and find the nearest adult. Of course then he brought them back they were nowhere to be found. Instead he found his dads Nova helmet sitting under his bed glowing an intense blue and as soon as he put it on he saw his dad giving it his best princess Leia impression. It was from then on that he became the great and powerful Nova, and began his superhero career. Well not really career because apparently members of the Nova Corp weren’t paid, and it didn’t really take off to well, allot of ups and down. But he helped where he could, be it fighting off chitauri invasions single handed or rebuilding skate parks he may have destroyed. In fact he was even quickly invited to join the avengers so that was pretty damn cool for a high school student.

== Key Skills ==

Flight: As Nova, Sam is able to fly at great speeds beyond escape velocity and past lightspeed. Able to fly from galaxy to galaxy under his own power.

Energy Manipulation: Like most Novas, Sam is able concentrate the power of the Nova Force into a beam or a ball of energy and fire it from his hands. He can also utilize the energies he generates to create protective or reflective force fields, power star-ships, focus it into an energy razor capable of decimating ships, amplify his own striking power by covering blows in nova force energy or even his whole body with said energy to strike like a cannon round, detect and remove toxic elements within a living being, and much like his predecessor; the ability to create hyperspace portals which shorten the distance between different points in the universe.

Superhuman Strength: Sam has access to the same strength as that of a centurion from the Nova Corps. Possibly more since he has the share hold of the Nova Force Within his helmet, he helped Beta Ray Bill stabilize a descending cargo ship the size of a city and carried around a boulder of condensed solid gold created from the heart of a supernova.

Superhuman Speed: Can move at incredible velocities even while running, concentrating his speed mostly on flight though, but more than able to move through the galaxy and back to earth with utmost ease.

Superhuman Durability: As a Nova Sam has an uncanny amount of resistance to abrasion and concussive force, having once been knocked halfway across the world by Hulk's evil Kluh persona and only suffering a concussion, having come out of a portal and re-entered Earth's atmosphere from deep space, and taken concussive blasts from incredibly powerful entities, relics, and war engines.

Xandarian Worldmind: His helmet carries the remnants of what's left of the Nova Corps' Xandarian Worldmind, as such through the device Sam is bestowed a plethora of unique attributes through its usage.

  • Universal Translation: The helmet can make any alien species' language appear to him as English.
  • Cosmic Awareness: Sam's Nova helmet flashes him different colors to depict different scenarios. It also allows him knowledge of most situations going on near him.
  • Enhanced Intellect: Through the helmet's Worldmind Sam gains a vast increase in congnative capacity, filling his mind with knowlegde and understanding about the universe as a whole and the scores of countless alien societies and cultures living within it.
  • Hardlight Holographic Projection: Sam has shown he can use a combination of the Nova Force and the Xandarian Worldmind to create convincing visual displays.
  • Cosmic Atlas: The helmet acts as a universal positioning system that enables Samuel to find his way around the galaxy as well as discern the location of just about anything the helmet picks up on like fallen nova sightings, distress signals, and foreign elements in a living body.
  • Affiliate Recognition: Able to discern certain individuals from around the universe and their current affiliations.


== Advantages ==

Nova Helmet – Gives him his powers.

Ugh, I guess you could say he’s a pretty good skater?

== Disadvantages == 

Human – Without that Helmet he’s just your average teen.

Arg, looks like I'm probably not getting access with anything better then a phone until Sunday night at best. So I will be playing Spider-Man and Hawkeye but I won't be able to put anything substantial down until then.

I can say that I've PMed some idea out to some other players on basic RP-relationship ideas and so far only 1 has not agreed to at least the basic idea, and that 1 probably is dropping entirely anyway.

- Spider-Man and Spider-Gwen are both aware of each other's existence and that they're both alternate universe iterations of their murdered first loves. Even more tragically, the timing of events are different. Spider-Gwen's Pete was only murdered last year and she's still a teenager while Spider-Man's Gwen was killed over a decade ago, he's in his late 20's, and he's had time to grieve and move forward.

- Pete and MJ were seriously dating but with her merge with Red Sonja they've been taking a break so Red/MJ can figure some things out. MJ and Red, thanks to the memories they share, both know he's Spider-Man. Ironically/Amusingly possibly the biggest obstacle to them dating again is that Red Sonja thinks they should just use him for sex.

- Clint Barton, a former circus act turned con artist turned SHEILD agent. Not the best at following a command structure but he bring's a con-artist's quick wit and a near-perfect marksman's aim especially with a bow and arrow. [Possible Route: as an unintended side effect of a past SHIELD op, he and fellow agent Bobbi "Mockingbird" Morse are technically legally married, which is having all sorts of unintended consequences both between themselves and with their "affairs".]

Part of New York Residing In: Usually bouncing between SHIELD facilities, but has an off-the-books apartment in Brooklyn.

== Physical Description == 
You know, in any other context Clint Barton would be the King of the Beach. He just seems wimpy and small because he hangs out with literal gods, billionaire playboys, super-soldiers, and the occasional Hulk. 6'3" and 230 pounds, practically all of it muscle - in any other context he'd be a pretty intimidating dude. Even worse, he's got boatloads of confidence - bordering on Arrogance at times - like he's on the inside of a joke only he heard. A confidence perhaps earned as a con artist turned SHIELD agent.

== Persona ==           

On the surface he never quite seems to be that far from his past as a carnival worker and con artist. Always smirking like he's in on a joke, he's got a quick wit and the almost reckless attitude that you would have to have to be willing to go up against a Hulk with just a bow and arrow set. On paper he's a decorated SHIELD agent, often he's only a half-step away from being an outright thief. You'd be surprised how many missions he's saved on the basis of just so happening to palm the right key-card or small object at the right moment with a bit of sleight of hand.

Even more well-known in superhero circles though is that Hawkeye is the man who never misses. Scratch the surface and you see someone who never misses because he can't miss. Because he doesn't have any powers, and if he ever misses a shot then he's just a man with a bow and arrow and all of his training and practice have been for nothing. He never misses, because with every shot his entire life is on the line.

== Key Skills ==

The Man That Never Misses - While he has no powers, he does make a habit of spending at least two hours a day specifically practicing and keeping his skills honed. As such Hawkeye most well known trait is that he's one of the best Archers the human race has ever produced. With a bow and arrows he's been known to loose several arrows in a few seconds all with near-perfect accuracy. Lesser known about him is that he also has a comparable level of accuracy and precision with the use of other weapons as well including but not limited to throwing blades, bolas, balls, and boomerangs. At this point it's assumed that if a weapon can be thrown or aimed, he can use it with frightening efficiency. Rumor even has it that once he was captured by HYDRA and he escaped via ripping off and flicking his own fingernails for ammo.

Circusfolk - Literally raised in a circus, Clint Barton is a lifelong carny with the mouth and hands to prove it. Before being recruited by SHIELD he was a con-artist with a criminal record and a surprisingly effective one. Tactics came naturally in his training, and he's much more agile then people give him credit for thanks to a family of Acrobats.

Hand-to-Hand - Going in Melee doesn't really save opponents from Hawkeye either. While not a Captain America level hand-to-hand fighter he does have his deeply honed reflexes and hand-eye coordination, allowing him to at least effectively use any melee weapon he can get his hands on. He's also been trained extensively in multiple martial arts forms thanks to SHIELD.

Polyglot - Clint Barton can speak multiple languages fluently; including but not limited to English, Italian, and Cantonese.

== Advantages ==

Hawkeye's Bow - An entirely custom bow for Hawkeye's personal use, to many people's surprise he uses a 250 pound draw weight, about 5 times the draw weight used by bow using deer hunters. A non-powered person trying to use his bow usually can't even pull back the string to loose an arrow, let alone be able to use it with anywhere near his proficiency.

Hawkeye's Quiver - A high tech marvel created by SHIELD, Hawkeye can speedily store, dial in, and attach various arrow heads for the task at hand. With this on his back, Hawkeye can switch between conventional arrows, explosive arrows, grappling line arrows, and several more types in what seems like a moment's notice.

== Disadvantages == 

Just A Man - Hawkeye has no powers, all of his seemingly superhuman feats at the result of a lifetime of training and maintenance.

Hearing Loss - Due to past injuries, Hawkeye's hearing comes and goes ranging from just fine to about 80% deaf. He knows sign language and can read lips, sometimes he needs hearing aids as well.

== Background ==
Clint's deepest, darkest secret at this point seems to be that he was born in Waverly, Iowa but was orphaned at a young age, his parents dying in a car wreck due to his father's alcoholism. Hating the orphanage, he literally ran off to join the circus - Carson's Carnival of Travelling Wonders to be precise. Looking back, it should of been more obvious to him that the carnies were also criminals that frequently robbed and stole from the towns they visited but he didn't catch on for a while, not until well after the lessons started. He was going to be just a roustabout, unskilled laborer, but the carnival's show archer was impressed by a display of reflexes and thought Clint had the raw potential to take over the act for him when he retired.

His mentor would later become known as the assassin-for-hire known as Trickshot, and Hawkeye absorbed the training well. Their relationship didn't end well though as Trickshot started taking hits and Clint didn't take to the new murder-for-hire angle of the training. Leaving the circus, Clint drifted surviving on his skills as a con-artist and when needed an archer. When, exactly, SHIELD picked him up is classified - but he will tell you it happened when he managed to run a con on an undercover SHIELD op, and showed enough skill with thrown weapons to survive the consequences. Apparently Nick Fury is a fan of "trial by fire" job interviews, and the old adage "sometimes it takes a thief to catch a thief".

Most recently was "The Vegas Incident". The exact details of it are not being talked about outside the files of SHIELD, but what is getting out is getting a lot of laughs around the water cooler. Rumor even has it that he and Agent "Mockingbird" Morse are now technically legally married.

He refuses to comment. With a smirk.

== Character Bio ==

== Personal Information ==

Legal Name: Dr. Barbara "Bobbi" Morse
Alias: Agent 19, Mockingbird
Age: 30
Sexuality: Whatever it needs to be...
Part of New York Residing In: Primarily S.H.I.E.L.D Facilities, plus a private hideout hidden in the Bronx

== Physical Description == 

Bobbi is a tall woman at 5'11" with a toned and lithe build that marks her natural athleticism while still possessing feminine curves that have come in handy a time or two (and fill out her tactical suit quite nicely). She is blonde and blue eyed with a quick and genuine smile and presents herself as a confident yet casual sort of woman.

== Persona == 
         
Bobbi Morse is quite a warm and friendly person with strong beliefs and unwavering loyalty all neatly wrapped into a brainy, cool, and confident package. Naturally charismatic she is very much a people person and generally feels right at home as 'one of the boys' or hanging with the girls. She cares deeply for those she grows close to and is fiercely protective of them, often willing to go to great lengths to try and ensure their safety. It is true that she excels at deception and manipulation but in truth Bobbi hates lying to those close to her--yet, she can, and will, lie for reasons she deems necessary. Business is business after all and as she almost devoutly believes in S.H.I.E.L.D's mission it remains her focal point--which has admittedly caused her some trouble in her personal life as those habits that make her a top agent are hard to break. She enjoys what she does and the rush that sometimes comes along with it but along with that she absolutely hates feeling idle or useless--which probably contributes to the opinion shared by a few that she enjoys the game just a little too much.

Overall though Bobbi generally relies on a mix of hard facts and gut instincts to guide her rather than skewing too far to one side or the other (despite being a scientist) but she is also exceptionally strong-willed and stubborn and can be ridiculously hard to budge once she had taken a stance. She has notable difficulty sharing her own feelings when hurt and is prone to deflecting when such things come up.

== Key Skills ==

Master Spy: Well trained by S.H.I.E.L.D. in espionage and counter-espionage techniques, Bobbi excels at keeping secrets and working undercover. She is a master manipulator and is able to easily cultivate relationships, some romantic, for the purpose of gathering intelligence. Even those she would consider close to her have trouble ferreting out the truth from lies when she deems it necessary.

Master Martial Artist:  Bobbi is skilled in multiple martial arts and several forms of hand-to-hand combat, including kung fu and Tae Kwon Do. She is known to be extremely dangerous when fighting in close quarters. She is also familiar with a wide range of weaponry, particularly her trademark twin staves.

Skilled Acrobat: She is a talented acrobat and gymnast.
   
Expert Marksman: Through her training with S.H.I.E.L.D., Morse has become an accomplished sharpshooter, favoring the use of heavy caliber handguns.

Expert Interrogator: Morse has a great skill at reading people and getting inside their minds. She is able to analyze a person's speech (even when limited) and find key information, though admittedly she finds it easier to read a person when they are speaking English.

Pilot: Bobbi is capable of flying most S.H.I.E.L.D. (or comparable) aircraft.

Biochemist: Morse has a PhD in Biology.

Multilingualism: Morse speaks English, Spanish, Japanese, Portuguese, and Mandarin Chinese. Despite her skills, however, Morse prefers speaking English during her missions.

== Advantages ==

Super-Human Enhancements: Due to the formula she was injected with, Bobbi has a degree of Super-Strength, with an unknown upper-limit, strong enough to dent steel with her bare hands, and Enhanced Agility. Her aging process has also been slowed down.

Versatile: Due to her skill set, Bobbi can be an asset to a team in a variety of roles.

Weapons: Mockingbird carries two hollow steel-alloy poles (battles staves) each extending up to four feet. She uses these staves as fighting clubs, she screws them together to be used as a bo-staff or javelin, or extend to an eight-foot vaulting pole.

Suit: Mockingbird's costume is made of Kevlar and Beta cloth making it bulletproof and fire resistant.

Glasses: Besides just being cool as hell, Mockingbird's glasses have night vision.

== Disadvantages == 

Still Only Human: While having been a top notch athlete before in addition to some favorable effects from the serum she was injected with to save her life, Mockingbird is not invulnerable or immortal and does not possess endless stamina. She can be tired out, hurt, and even killed.

Morally Gray: Bobbi does not suffer from the same hang ups about killing when necessary like some others and sometimes has to be ... reminded.

Workaholic: Bobbi is a devoted agent and sometimes cannot seem to 'turn off' certain behaviors. While they are useful on missions they can prove to be disastrous outside of that.

== Background ==

Having graduated at the top of her class from S.H.I.E.L.D.s academy, the exploits of the agent known as Mockingbird are potentially long and greatly varied so I will endeavor to keep this short. Dr. Barbara "Bobbi" Morse was born and raised in San Diego, California. She excelled in school and later attended the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she specialized in biology and eventually earned a doctorate degree. Originally her goal was simply to be a scientist but sometime during her college years she was recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D. and took on the codename Agent 19. One of her earliest assignments did indeed make use of her talents in science and sent her undercover to work on a research project known as Project: Gladiator, which was an attempt to replicate the Super-Soldier serum that created Captain America though a flawed serum created Man-Thing instead, but from there it seemed her talents made sure that she would never again get to be 'just a scientist'.

In her early years with S.H.I.E.L.D. Bobbi was generally tasked with investigating potential subversives within their own organization due to her skill in infiltration, intelligence gathering, and simply reading people. Unfortunately her success in these endeavors along with her convincing performances eventually led to her being painted as a criminal despite the fact that she was actually operating under Director Fury's direct orders. Her efforts reveal several moles within S.H.I.E.L.D. over time but ultimately she was taken out by a group of agents believing her to be a true enemy. Only after she was injured and captured was the truth then revealed and her name cleared by the Director himself and following the ordeal Bobbi was forced to take some time to heal and recover from her injuries.

In the years following, Bobbi continued to operate as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and was eventually dubbed Mockingbird for her tendency to taunt foes. She later transferred to the west coast to lend her talents to those stationed there, alternately working as part of a larger team and then solo or in team ups when the situation warranted. It was during a team up that Bobbi was mortally wounded and Fury made the decision to inject her with a combination of the Super Soldier Serum that turned Steve Rogers into Captain America and the Infinity Formula that slowed his own aging--though he admitted that the potential effects of the serum long term were unknown to him. Regardless, Mockingbird made a quick recovery and returned to active duty.

Most recently it has become apparent that following a mission undertaken with Hawkeye in Las Vegas, there might have been some... lingering complications. Bobbi has yet to say anything definitive on the subject and instead usually makes some bawdy quip (sometimes at Hawkeye's expense) to rile up the boys and distract them.

Ok, so, quick question: I'm interested in taking the role of Flash Thompson/Venom, but I do have a question as to where this lies in Venom's timeline; namely, is this during the period where Venom is still batshit crazy and is being kept docile by loads and loads of drugs, or is this after Flash has taken him to his home planet and he's been "purged" of the hatred and bloodlust and madness that built up over his time on Earth? Because that will affect how I hypothetically play them quite a lot. :-)

Men in general judge more by the sense of sight than by that of touch, because everyone can see but few can test by feeling. Everyone sees what you seem to be, few know what you really are; and those few do not dare take a stand against the general opinion. Therefore it is unnecessary to have all the qualities I have enumerated, but it is very necessary to appear to have them. And I shall dare to say this also, that to have them and always observe them is injurious, and that to appear to have them is useful; to appear merciful, faithful, humane, religious, upright, and be so, but with a mind so framed that should you require not to be so, you may be able and know how to change to the opposite.
