:: PERSONALITY ::
Laura is very quiet and introverted to those around her because of her low self-esteem and self conciousness. The fact that she wasn't technically "born" and that she is a clone and an "unoriginal" being make her feel useless and just as if she's wasting someone's space and time.
Also, Laura is very defensive and protective of herself and her friends. She would easily give up her own life to save a friend's and she wouldn't betray the ones she loves for anything.

The Weapon X program left a terrible mental scar on Laura. When she was a child, she was treated as a killing machine and an animal. This lead to depression and self-harm issues. Laura frequently cuts herself with her own claws in times of great stress. The program also gave Laura major trust issues. She has to thouroughly know someone before she can truly trust them.

Laura is also a very stubborn and unforgiving girl. Once she's made up her mind about something that she cares about, you can't change it easily. She will hold her ground and defend her position. When someone betrays Laura, she is terribly hurt. This breaks her trust almost permanantly. Laura will almost never forgive someone that betrayed her, especially if they had had her trust.

:: MUTATION ::

• :: POWER 1 ::
  :: MUTATION ::
  Regenerative Healing Factor: Like Wolverine, X-23'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. Her healing factor is developed to such a degree, she is capable of reattaching severed limbs, such as a hand. She has also proven capable of regrowing an entire arm on her own (Elixer was incapacitated at the time).[5] 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.
  
  
  Foreign Chemical Immunity: X-23's natural healing also affords her the virtual immunity to poisons and most drugs. She can be affected by some drugs, such as tranquilizers, if she is exposed to a massive dose.
  
  Disease Immunity: Due to her highly efficient immune system, X-23 is immune to all Earthly diseases and infections.
  
  Superhumanly Acute Senses: X-23 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 human's can't and to hear sounds that ordinary humans can, but at much greater distances. X-23 is able to use her highly developed sense of smell to track targets by scent with an impressive degree of success, even if the scent has been eroded by natural factors, such as the weather.
  
  Superhuman Stamina: X-23's 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.
  
  Superhuman Agility: X-23's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.
  
  Superhuman Reflexes: X-23's reflexes are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
  
  Bone Claws: X-23'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, although she must keep her wrists and/or feet straight at the moment the claws emerge. The claws are naturally sharp and tougher than normal human bone, allowing X-23 to cut through most types of flesh and natural materials.
  
  Longevity: Presumably, because X-23 is a clone of the mutant Wolverine, her healing factor will also provide her with an extended lifespan by slowing the effects of the aging process.
  
  Superhuman Durability: She was capable of fighting the Hulk without sustaining any severe injuries and surviving energy blasts from Nimrod.

:: History ::
When a top-secret program attempted to recreate the original Weapon X experiment that involved the feral mutant Wolverine, they failed to secure a test subject who could survive the bonding process of the virtually unbreakable metal Adamantium to their skeleton. Seeking to take the project in a new direction, the project's director, Doctor Marin Sutter, recruited renowned mutant geneticist Doctor Sarah Kinney and tasked her with creating a clone.

Using the only available genetic sample from Weapon X, which was damaged, they were unable to salvage the Y chromosome after twenty-two attempts. Kinney proposed they create a female clone, and though her request was initially denied, she still went ahead and produced a viable female subject, prompting Sutter to reconsider. Despite resistance from his protégé Doctor Zander Rice, whom Sutter had raised after Rice's father had been killed by a bestial Wolverine at the original Weapon X Project, Sutter allowed Kinney to proceed. As revenge for her insubordination, Rice forced Kinney to act as the surrogate mother for the clone, and she gave birth to "X-23".

Seven years later, raised in captivity X-23 was trained to be a weapon. Kinney did her best to ensure the child retained some semblance of humanity, but her efforts appeared to be in vain. After seven years, Rice had X-23 subjected to radiation poisoning in order to accelerate the activation of her mutant gene, and forcibly extracted her claws and coated them with Adamantium. After Rice realized the child was growing soft, he blamed her sensei, one of the few people who treated her with kindness, and tested a chemical compound called "trigger scent" on him. The "trigger scent" causes Laura to kill mercelessly anything in her path, and thus she murdered her best friend. Rice already had a replacement in the wings, a woman named Kimura. Kimura was harsh and strictly punished X-23 for the death of her sensei.

Three years later, X-23 was sent on her first field mission to kill Presidential candidate Greg Johnson. She was assigned the mission as somewhat of an "advertising" ploy. Numerous other missions followed, as X-23's services were sold to the highest bidder. She was left emotionally stunted as a result. Her missions took her to locations all over the world, including Saudi Arabia, Las Vegas, Japan, Colombia, the Congo, and many others. For one mission she was assigned to pose as the Kingpin's daughter and kill the ones who had captured her, bringing the head of their leader back. Rice, in an attempt to avenge his father's murder, abandoned X-23 on a particularly dangerous mission with A.I.M, but she survived against overwhelming odds and managed to return to the facility. After her return to the facility Kimura punished her for not coming back with Rice.

Sarah Kinney let her out once, not as an attempt to escape but instead to use X-23 to help her find Kinney's niece, Megan, who had been kidnapped. X-23 found and rescued her with ease. Ultimately, Rice persuaded Sutter to hand control of the program over to him, then secretly ordered X-23 to kill Sutter and his family. X-23 was able to kill Sutter and his wife but was unable to kill their son. Instead, she let him live. Later, Rice revealed to Kinney a chamber with dozens of incubation pods containing female clones before he fired her. Before fleeing the facility with X-23, Kinney gave her one last mission - destroy the pods and kill Rice. However, Rice was able to exact revenge on Kinney from beyond the grave, as he had earlier exposed her to the trigger scent, sending X-23 into a rage that caused her to kill her mother. As she lay dying, Kinney named X-23 "Laura".

:: RP sample ::
Laura roamed through the forest, listening to the freshly layed snow crunch under her combat boots. It had been a couple of months since her breakout from The Facility and Laura still didn't have anywhere to go. She mainly fended for herself these days. She carefully scanned the ground for any animal tracks that may be signs of a meal. The snow was sadly perfect. No scratches, holes, or tracks. Then again, Laura had more than eyes to hunt with. She opened her ears and leaned toward any sound she heard.

As she listened, the faint howl of a wolf from out of sight rang through the woods. Laura immediately started stealthily sprinting through the snow, weaving in and out of trees. When the scent of the wolf reached her, Laura came to an abrupt stop. The wolf stood about 12 yards from Laura, feasting on its own hunt of the night. As Laura crept closer, careful not to make any noise, the wolf glanced up. He glared into Laura's eyes and growled as a warning.

Well, Plan A had failed, so Laura immediately sprang into Plan B. Her claws shoot through her hands as she lunges at the wolf. The adamantium laced weapons tore easily through the wolf's soft flesh. The animal turned around amd sunk its teeth into Laura's left shoulder as a last minute attempt to defend itself, but slowly collapsed dead seconds later. Laura grunted as she pried the wolf's jaws off of her wound, both wolf and human blood dripping onto the snow to create a scene of terror. She clenched her teeth as her shoulder painfully healed, leaving no markings except for Laura's ripped jacket.

Laura quickly impaled the dead wolf on her claws and effortlessly dragged it through the so, leaving a bright red trail as she headed back to her campsite.
