About

Name: Laura Kinney
Age: 18
Codename: X-23
Affiliation: The Brotherhood
Species: Mutant
Abilities: X-23 possesses the ability to regenerate damaged or destroyed areas of her cellular structure at a superhuman rate, which varies in direct proportion with the severity of the damage she suffers. Despite the extent of her healing factor, X-23 is not immortal. Injuries that result in the loss of vital organs, large amounts of blood, and/or loss of physical form are potentially lethal for her. X-23's natural healing also affords her virtual immunity to poisons and most drugs, as well as an enhanced resistance to diseases and the fatigue poisons generated by bodily activity. Hence, her endurance, agility and reflexes are enhanced. X-23 also possesses superhumanly acute senses, allowing her to see and hear things at an extended distance. She is able to recognize people and objects by scent, even if that person or object is hidden, and can use these enhanced senses to track any creature with an impressive degree of success.

Marital Status: Single

Family: Mother-Sarah Kinney (deceased)
(Cloned from Wolverine)

Personal 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 that could survive the bonding of the virtually unbreakable metal Adamantium to their skeleton. Seeking to take the project in a new direction, the project's director, Doctor Martin 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 22 attempts. Kinney then 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 he had raised after Rice's father was 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."

Raised in captivity, X-23 was trained to be a weapon. After seven years, Rice had X-23 subjected to radiation poisoning in order to accelerate the activation of her mutant gene, then forcibly extracted her claws and coated them with Adamantium. The child was given this "operation" without any kind of anesthetic. Next, Rice created a chemical compound he called "trigger scent" that sent X-23 into an involuntary berserker rage upon smelling its presence.

Three years later, X-23 was sent on her first field mission to kill Presidential candidate Greg Johnson. Numerous other missions followed, as X-23's services were sold to the highest bidder, and she was left emotionally stunted as a result. Rice, in an attempt to avenge his father's murder, abandoned X-23 on a particularly dangerous mission, but she survived against overwhelming odds and managed to return to the facility.

Ultimately, Rice persuaded Sutter to hand over control of the program to him, then secretly ordered X-23 to kill Sutter and his family. 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 told X-23 that her name is Laura, that she loved her, and then handed her pictures of Charles Xavier, Wolverine, and the Xavier Institute

Personality: Upon initially encountering her, X-23 might be mistaken for a typical young woman, calm and quiet. She is far from it, however. In reality if you were to dig deeper they would find very dark and complex layers. This is due to the environment she grew up in. (You could say she has daddy and mommy issues.) She's basically a shrink's dream. Not that she would ever let a psychologist close enough to her.

Growing up her mother tried her best to make sure the girl retained a semblance of humanity, even when her efforts appeared to be in vain. Laura rarely spoke or even showed much interest in her mother. It didn't help that Sarah Kinney was forced to reject any and all emotional advances made by her daughter. Laura wasn't even permitted to lay her head in her own mother's lap.

Despite such an upbringing, Laura has managed to keep some of her humanity and every now and then it shows.

When she does speak, she does so in short sentences. She isn't very verbose at all and because she grew up in a controlled environment, she speaks almost perfect grammar and hardly ever uses slang.

"My Own Enemy" by Thousand Foot Krutch

Hold up
Oh no
Who let them in the door
It's like a freak show
Shake it like a photo

Hate
Is only what you say
Not what you mean
And pain
Is what's inside of me
Not when you're bleeding
I will fall
I'll fall
And take your breath away
We could change it all
And take your breath away

This anger changes me
It affects the way I see
Affects every part of me
And makes you my enemy
But when it falls apart
It's like a brand new start
And I can't remember why
I ripped everything apart

[chorus]
I'm still my worst enemy
The world around me
All can see what they want to see
I need some help
Because I'm still my worst enemy
No matter where I am
I'll still get the best of my
I'm my own enemy

Shake
The world inside of me
Until it can't be shaken
Wake
The words inside of me
Before it's all too late

I will fall
I'll fall
And take your breath away
We will change it all
And take your breath away

This anger changes me
It affects the way I see
Affects every part of me
And makes you my enemy
But when it falls apart
It's like a brand new start
And I can't remember why
I ripped everything apart

[chorus]

My own enemy
My own enemy

Disclaimers

I did not nor do I claim to have created x-23. She belongs to our good friends at Marvel. I am not Daisy Lowe either, she's just here to look pretty.
