JAMES "LOGAN" HOWLETT
WOLVERINE // // X-MEN // JON BERNTHAL
"If you knew the kind of person you used to be...the work we did together..."[/color]
:: PERSONALITY ::
Logan has a bit of a temper problem, but this is mostly due to two attributing factors. He is a feral mutant, and is prone to animalistic reactions to incidents, and the other factor is his amnesia. He doesn't know who he is or what his name is. All he knows is Logan from dogtags he found on his persons. This puts him at a constant state of defensive-ness.
When he does find time to let his guard down he is a man's man. He spends most of his time traveling, and conning people in local biker bars. He particularly enjoys anything related to strong man competitions, arm wrestling or street fighting. He is aware of the adamantium bonded to his skeletal system, but not why.
He loves cigars, liquor, and women. He can be very territorial which could be further into that defensive feral state of protection. He is still a very honorable individual who will throw himself at danger without cause for concern for others. He won't let innocent people suffer for whatever crimes he may have committed in his former life.
He knows he is a mutant, and while he doesn't care either way he is not heartbroken over the enhancements bestowed upon him. He has found them to be quite useful, and has used his powers to help people along his path.

:: MUTATION ::
- :: Healing Factor ::
Logan has a superior healing factor. Since his amnesia he does not know just how good it is, but he does know he can survive things that would kill other people.- :: Heightened Senses ::
His senses of hearing, sight, and smell are all increased to superhuman levels. He can smell gunpowder through doors if there is not a counteracting smell. This could cause sensory overload if too much was going on at once.- :: Bone Claws ::
His claws are extensions of his skeletal system, but they are also bonded to adamantium like the rest of his skeletal system. They come out approximately 8 inches from the slits between his fingers.
"Living from day to day, moving from place to place, with no memory of who or what you are."
:: History ::
Logan was actually born in the 1880's to John and Elizabeth Howlett, but was secretly the illegitimate child of Thomas Logan their groundskeeper. Things were mostly normal throughout his life as he learned to ride a horse, hunt, and track in the woods in Alberta, Canada.
His life quickly went downhill when his father fired Thomas for the actions of his other son Dog. Thomas returned to murder John some time later, but was immediately killed by Wolverine. He never meant to kill Thomas only tackle him, but his mutation triggered during the surge of emotions causing his claws to come out as he hit Thomas.
He was immediately cast out by his Mother for being a some kind of monster. He made one stop, and that was to find his only childhood friend Rose. They ran away to Yukon Territory as newlywed couple. He changed his name to Logan in hopes to repent for the accidental murdering. He takes a job as apart of mining colony, and spends long days working the mines.
One night while drinking his wife is attacked by one of the other miners who was not fond of Logan. Logan with his heightened sense of hearing quickly moves to rescue her, but during the scuffle she is hit with his claws. Rose dies in Logan's arms much to his heartbreak.
He leaves again this time south to the America's. He spends much of his time with a Blackfoot Tribe where he falls in love with a woman named Silver Fox. He does his best to ignore her, but as a respected friend of the tribe (as well a great hunter) she is not easily pushed away. He dare not get close to anyone again, and thus leaves the area as to protect her from being hurt.
He makes his way East, and finds work on the docks until the beginning of World War I. He served throughout the whole war, and when it ended he moved to Japan. There he learned martial arts, and become close with his masters daughter. He couldn't hold himself back any further, and spent a passionate night with her, but he was still haunted by his past. He left Japan to continue travelling the world.
He found purpose once more as WWII came around. His skills were quickly put to use, and he was promoted quickly in this war. He spent his last few years serving in Captain America's unit. He thought Cap was a bit naive, but he was an excellent soldier. They had many conflicts against the Red Skull and his HYDRA unit.
After the war with the Nazi's he spent most of his time working for a private division of the US Military under Colonel William Stryker. He is used primarily as an assassin. He worked with alot of people in this time including a man codenamed Sabretooth. The two men did not get along well, and spent many years seeking an opportunity to kill each other.
He was found out to be a mutant later by Colonel William Stryker, and enrolled into a experimental program called Weapon Plus Project. They were an offshoot of the same program responsible for Captain America. He spent years working for them before having him used as Weapon X in their trial of bonding agents to enhance mutation. Wolverine was bonded with adamantium. He survived the procedure due to his healing factor, but the trauma of it all left him amnesiac.
He didn't know much, and began travelling the Canadian wilderness where he was hunted down by Sabretooth. He barely escape a bloody fight, and was found by a older man hunting the woods. They brought him back to their house, and gave him time to heal. Soon after recovering he left to find out who he was.
He has since traveled, and seen two more wars in that time. He is not sure who he is besides the dogtags he had when he could remember that said Logan on them. He has spent the last few years having certain things come back to him, and re-learning what made him such an efficient killer for so long.
