Other Physical Details:
Slender and agile, X-23 is growing up into a beautiful young woman and her sense of dress seemed to flaunt that fact. For the most part she appears fond of the more ‘Goth’ trend without adorning herself entirely in black and smacking on face paint. Short skirts and fishnet stockings are commonly seen on her with a few different styled tops. Most tend to be revealing in some respect, be it just her stomach or more extreme. There appears to be a ‘neutral’ expression which seems rather lost and detached on her most of the time, but that doesn’t mean she can’t smile nor that she isn’t in touch with her feelings.
X-23 has a belly piercing as well, she tends to accessories even though she didn’t give the impression that she cares what she looks like. It’s hard to tell from her personality but it’s visually obvious some thought HAS to go into her dress style.
Mother: Sarah … something-a-rather conceived her / human / alive I think… Father: Genetic Donor / Mutant / Alive Other Important Relatives or People in their lives:
Saying X-23 is Logan’s daughter is like calling Maddie Pryor Jean’s daughter. But one could say they are more like siblings, considering they are the exact double in most accounts calling them ‘twins’ would fit logically. So I will be going on the fact that X-23 is Logan’s ‘twin’ and refering to relations that way. X-23 herself does not consider this, as she is younger she will refer to Logan as a father-ish figure and his children as her siblings. Confusing eh?

Personality:
Though she doesn’t break down at the drop of a hat, X-23 is still a fourteen year old who’s life was less then pleasant, with dreams and thoughts that have either strengthened her or crushed her – everyone has something that can make them cry. She’ll never be someone to openly express herself with the ease most people can, and sometimes the fact people feel she’s cold and emotionless is relayed to her and makes it difficult for her to react to things. The best option she usually takes is to ignore their opinions and do what she feels is right. Like her counterpart, X-23 does have a soft side, the gruff angst and turmoil doesn’t control her life, though she has been emotionally scarred by many things in her past, even if she doesn’t talk of them.
It is easy to note that she is a highly troubled girl, as it isn’t rare to see her cutting her wrists with her claws, on some occasions she’s been known to do it when bored and left alone with her thoughts.
Likes:
At the moment she hasn’t really had the chance to explore many areas of things she likes…
-Being read to. Sarah used to read her stories… most of which were based on combative situations and such, but Pinocchio was once told to her as well.
Dislikes:
-Zander. The way he treated her so callously during her years growing up in Hydra.
-Logan. It’s his fault she was treated so ruthlessly, for the main fact he murdered Zander’s father when Logan escaped from Weapon X program.
-Hydra. In general, she despises the organization, but loathes most government agencies now, for obvious reasons.
Powers and/or Skills:
Healing Factor:
Although she is Logan’s clone, unlike Logan she doesn’t have her entire skeleton covered in adamantium, it is suspected that this dulls Logan’s already impressive healing factor. Although Connor has adamantium structure like his father, Connor’s healing factor was said surpass Logan’s, and therefore although having lost some of it’s effectiveness yet still remains impressive and a cut above his fathers. Connor and X-23 have the same level of healing factor. She is immune to most illnesses and viruses, healing at an exaggerated rate. Her sever weakness is that of vaccines and anti-bodies that her body treats as hostile invaders and reacts negatively, throwing X-23 (and her other relatives) into a bad fever.
Adamantium claws:
In nature we find that evolution has built unique traits into both male and females, each given specific physical attributes to insure that they can properly manage their roles in life. The males in Logan’s gene pool are the protectors of the family groups, much in the way male lions protect their prides. Males were not designed to hunt (although they can), but rather kill all predators that threaten the family group and any males who challenge their place as head of the pride. The females are hunters so they need offensive claws on their hands like the males, but they also have an equally important secondary job and that is to insure the survival of their cubs. They must raise the young and always come home after the hunt, to insure this they were given a defensive weapon in their foot. This pedal claw is used when the female's arms are injured or incapacitated, they use it to slash at the belly or the batter of their attackers so that they can escape and return safely to the pride. X23's claws were determined by evolution and Hydra trained her to use her foot claws as offensive weapons in the hopes that she could be twice as deadly as her predecessor
(Marvel has all the answers, don’t they… we’ll just ignore Logan’s OTHER daughter who has three claws XD Better yet, let’s pretend that X-23 was the first of this new stage in evolution -_-)
Heighten Attributes:
Same old same old…X-23 has heightened senses and enhances physical attributes that make her the perfect killing machine.
Combat Training:
Since she was a child, X-23 has underground heavy training in martial arts and an unexplained amount of other forms of self defence. An assassin in upbringing, this new Weapon X was designed and treated as a tool of destruction, and has learned a great many things involved with the art of death.
History:
X23 was born within the walls of an organization known as Hydra. Based on data Hydra had stolen from project Weapon X, Dr. Deborah Risman was attempting to create "the perfect weapon" but failed twenty-two times. Using Wolverine's DNA, she succeeded on her twenty-third try. Minus a few genetic variations, X23 is Wolverine's clone. X-23 was convinced by a Hydra helper called Sara, who was told many things about the projects yet realized a lot of things being done were not supposed to happen that way. At least from what they had told her, and this attitude in Sarah caused her to lose status amongst Zander and the head official who both wanted to get X-23 ready and operational as soon as possible.
At the age of twelve years, X23 was put through the Weapon X process. To do this however she needed to have her healing factor, since she would not survive without it. To trigger her dormant powers, Zander locked her into a chamber and exposed her to sever radiation poisoning. As horrifying as it was, it did end up working, much to Sarah’s anguish and pity towards the girl. Due to her skill growing form, they were unable to bind the adamantium to her entire skeleton, but Zander removed both her hand claws and her foot claws and laced them with the adamantium, placing them back once they had been sharpened and coated. All this was done without aesthetic and had been a traumatic experience for X-23, despite her complete recovery by the following day.
During one of her training sessions with her Sensei Tanaka, Zander placed a special ‘scent’ which would trigger a violent and mindless response from X-23. Without control and without thought, X-23 became a feral of malicious nature and tore into her beloved teacher, something that she didn’t easily recover from one the triggered berserker mode had subsided.
Hydra's efforts to breed out emotion failed. What the organization had intended to be an unstoppable soldier lacking free will, had turned into a violently rebellious teenage girl cursed with uncontrollable anger. At some point during her life, X23 had become convinced that Wolverine was not only aware of her existence but somehow responsible for her ghastly upbringing. Amongst his files she discovered he had family, including a girl her own age, X-23 is having conflict over her desires to meet this closes things to relatives she has… part of her wants to find Logan and have revenge for the suffering she came to accusing him of dealing her. During one of X-23 assassination attempts, a mutant named Amlarie contained the wild feral, and for the last few months has been helping undo what Hydra had done to the child.
Sample Post:
Small steps made their way towards the institute. Each foot dragged smoothly after the other, a calm exterior hiding the struggle within. Emerald eyes alert and focused, a tired hand trailing along the wall of the institutes outer perimeter. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Was it? How would she know… how would she possibly know what life was meant to be like? There was so many things she didn’t understand, so many things that didn’t make sense. Where was Sarah? Where was the woman who had been the only parental figure she knew? The one who had conceived her? Was Sarah her mother? What was a mother? What made a human the mother of someone… was it as simple as giving birth to a person? Sarah had read her stories, no one else had spent time with her like that… no one else read her stories on the art of war. There was one story that wasn’t about war though, one about a boy made of wood. A child created from the hands of a man who wanted a son. The man created him, and the wooden puppet came to life and called him ‘father’.
The intense gems of bright green splendor watched the mild activities of the school carefully through the bars of the front gate. These were the people that protected the first Weapon X. She was Weapon X as well… would they protect her? Would Sarah look for her here? Would the people from the program look for her here as well? Amlarie says it’s dangerous to be here. Amlarie speaks so softly to her, the young cloned mutant was rarely treated as a person… she was a weapon and that’s what Zander wanted everyone to treat her as.
No name… no family, no friends. It was all forbidden, all unnecessary and useless. X-23. Maybe that’s all she deserved, maybe that’s all she needed. But wasn’t Sarah family? Wasn’t her Sensei, Tanaka, her friend? But Sarah was gone now… and Tanaka… All the other killings had been easy to deal with, weighing on her mind but pushed too far into the depths of its darkest corners to trouble her as long as she had other things to occupy her thoughts. Tanaka was her teacher, he was old but he was wise. The only one to truly treat her as a child, the only one to praise her, the only one other then Sarah who would offer a touch that didn’t involve striking her down – something he had been ordered never to do, give a friendly touch that is.
An unseen shiver had its ghostly fingers trickle down her spine at the thought of Zander. Anger. Fear? She wasn’t entirely sure but she knew if she saw that man the only response X-23 could give was an attempt at his murder. The female version of Logan Howlett, so similar and yet so different, had been Zander’s outlet for his revenge. For unknown to X-23 his father had been responsible for Logan’s adamantium bonding… the one she was cloned from was also responsible for the murder of his father. X-23 did know that Logan was located here, that she was a clone, a tool of death that was only destined to be a marionette for those who control her strings. No longer though, Amlarie had found her when X-23 was sent to assassinate an official Amlarie was having discussions with.
The young experiment was also aware of someone else who had claws residing here… that girl X-23 encountered at the market. Not to mention Logan.. the hate and anger she bore towards that man was unspeakable, ruthless...Such things were pushed aside however, content on trying to keep herself focused.
It was early… about ten or so, the morning dragged by and the genetic clone hardly even knew why she was here. It was odd. It felt unreal, part of her longed for one of those faces moving about in there to turn and notice her, another part wanted to leave before being discovered. Green sapphires turned their attention over towards the security panel, the security camera on the side of the gate aimed fixatedly on her young features. Do they see her in there? The intensity of her eyes faded for an instant before being revealed once again as her dark lashes parted and X-23’s gaze lingered on the camera.
"X-23, are you there?" Lips parted slightly, the clones eyes dropping to stare down at her belt. The white shirt she wore and gray skirt seemed almost like a school uniform, although she wore fishnet stockings and a rather provocatively parted shirt that revealed her stomach easily when she moved and was perhaps unbuttoned a little too low for any mother’s liking. Amlarie got her many things but she felt comfortable in ‘less’ since clothes could restrict the fluid movements she was able to perform, but her black laced up boots becoming a favorite for foot wear at the moment.
"Affirmative. Problems?" The quiet voice replied with a certain military air, though a stroll down memory lane added a slight detachment to her words. It was Amlarie’s voice, her belt held a communicator on it, nothing fancy.. looked like a normal silver rectangle buckle but with a red border that faintly lit up as X-23 pressed the buckle to speak.
"We’re departing for an assignment I think you shall be interested in, meet us in the hanger." The hanger? A glance around had X-23 wonder if she could make it there in time before they leave, the young 15 year old feral hurriedly walking away from the school with a reluctant final glance.
"I’m on my way." So young and yet her skills were never doubted. At least Amlarie did not make her hurt people, but at the same time, she was locked away from so many people, the only other one to talk with was newly named entity called Jade – and she didn’t talk.
