Wolverine's Profile



Little is known of his past -- save that it was fraught with pain and loss. Long ago, he was trained as a samurai in Japan; later, he became Weapon-X -- a covert operative for the Canadian government. Today, the man also known as Logan is an X-Man, using his animal-keen senses, healing factor, and razor sharp claws to help protect a world that fears and hates mutants.

Known superhuman powers: Wolverine possesses heightened senses, making him capable of seeing things at a maximum distance greater than that of a normal human. His hearing is enhanced in a similar manner, and he is able to recognize people and objects by scent, even if that person or object is hidden. Logan can use these enhanced senses to track anyone, with an impressive degree of success. He possesses retractable claws that are housed in his forearms. At will, Wolverine can release these claws through his skin between the knuckles on each hand. Lastly, Wolverine possesses an accelerated healing factor based on his physiology. While most normal humans heal injuries over a long period of time, Wolverine's healing factor speeds up that natural process.

History: A star member of the X-Men, whose long, checkered, and mostly forgotten past remains a mystery to him. Wolverine's confusion is compounded by his recent discovery that many of his memories were artificially implanted. It is believed that Logan served as an agent of the Canadian government, when his mutant abilities were discovered - he was put though a series of procedures that bonded the unbreakable metal Adamantium to his skeleton. Perhaps his most remarkable feature, and certainly his trademark, are the retractable Adamantium claws! As Weapon X, he worked for the Canadian government, but eventually joined the X-Men.
