Gender: Cis male

Birthday: Unknown

Height: 6′3″

Affiliations: X-men, the War Effort

Powers:  Logan has a healing factor that slows his aging and makes it so that he can heal from most things in a matter of minutes though it is partially to blame for some of his amnesia. He originally had bone claws but his skeleton has since been bonded with adamantium so his bones have become unbreakable and his claws can now cut through just about anything. He also has heightened senses, most notably sight, hearing, and smell as well as some low level animal empathy. 

A little more in depth

Important Headcanons: 

Logan’s been a member of the X-men for years now but that doesn’t mean things always go smoothly. While he is more of a team player than he used to be and is staunchly loyal to those who he’s become friends with, he’s still prone to go off and deal with things he views as personal matters on his own rather than bringing them to the team, sometimes with disastrous effects. He doesn’t get along with everyone on the team and his temper can be just as quick and brutal as ever. He still likes his space and his independence, much to the chagrin of some members of the team, though he figures they should know by now that he’s in this thing for the long haul and isn’t permanently going anywhere any time soon. With the war, this has increased a lot. Especially with all the other teams coming together, he’s open to some collaboration but his first priority is the X-men over the others even if he’s got some connections outside of them. As much as they sometimes drive him crazy, the X-men are his family now and he’ll do what he can to get them through this damn thing. 

Logan’s memory is still fractured and he’s pretty much accepted the fact that he’ll be a damn headcase for the rest of his life. It’s not like he trusts most telepaths to go poking around in there, with a few notable exceptions, and even if he did trust them he’s not entirely sure he’d want them to know some of the things he has locked away. The nightmares and flashes he gets of the things he doesn’t fully remember are bad enough that he knows there’s a lot of terrible shit in his past. He’s got a decent idea of the Weapon X program and his part in it and sometimes large swathes of other eras or bits and pieces throughout the course of his life. His clearest memories, however, start in the early ‘90s and forward from there. It’s frustrating, not knowing where he was during certain times or all of the things he’s done, but he’s more or less learned to live with it. He’s got enough to regret and feel guilty about from what he does remember, he doubts he needs to add to that load.

The Accords damn near enraged Logan and he did everything he could to fight against them, thinking that they were complete and utter bullshit. His opinion of those who were in favour of the Accords drastically decreased and he was disappointed in people he’d initially thought better of. There’s still a lot of resentment towards people he’d once considered friends or at least on the same side that supported the Accords and Logan’s not shy about making his opinion known and confronting those people. He’s willing to shelve some of this for the war effort but once someone’s lost Logan’s good opinion it’s pretty damn hard to get it back.

 He likes to drink, beer or whiskey, mostly, sometimes a good scotch, even though he can’t really feel the effects of it unless he pounds it real fast and real hard. Sometimes it’s the taste, or in whiskey’s case the nice burn down the back of his throat, and sometimes it’s just to blend in. It’s pretty conspicuous to be the only guy in a dive bar who doesn’t have a beer bottle in front of him. Why a dive bar? Logan prefers the atmosphere. There’s usually a beat up pool table or a dark corner booth where he can go be alone. Fancy places or, God forbid, hipster bars don’t suit him at all so he sticks to the holes in the wall. There’s actually less of a chance of being recognized there, too. Most people know who he is by now but the truckers and the construction workers and the serial alcoholics either don’t recognize him or don’t give much of a shit about who he is. Occasionally there’s trouble, where he gets recognized and someone tries to chuck him out for being a mutant but it’s not a healthy mistake for people to make. Logan’s not even looking for a fight, most times, he just wants to sit somewhere and be anonymous and maybe pretend like his life isn’t the clusterfuck that it always inevitably is.

Stance on the War: It’s for the fate of the world and he’s part of the world so he might as well try to save it. It’s not like he wants to live as a slave for some power crazy alien for the rest of his probably long life so here he is, fighting. He’s the best at it, after all. 

Abbreviated Bio: 

James “Logan” Howlett was born in the late 19th century in Alberta, Canada. The result of his mother’s affair with the groundskeeper, he witnessed his father murdering his stepfather as a child which triggered his mutant abilities and forced him to flee his home. Before he learned a measure of control, his bestial rage caused him to kill people close to him and he lived a very nomadic lifestyle for a long time. Logan does not remember much of his early life though he has fought in several wars before the current one for the fate of the world. 

Around the mid-20th century, Logan was taken by Weapon X and experimented on which is where the adamantium was bonded to his skeleton. Weapon X is also where, as far as Logan understands it, his memory trouble started since they frequently wiped his memory. Eventually, Logan escaped from Weapon X and again lived a nomadic lifestyle. For a time, he worked with the Canadian government and Alpha Flight until he ended up helping rescue one of the early teams of X-men. Charles Xavier offered him a spot on the team and Logan became an X-man. While he sometimes took off to deal with his own issues, he has been a member of the X-men for decades and has been involved in many of the large battles they have participated in. Logan was involved in the Phoenix Five fiasco where he clashed with the Avengers though did end up working with them when it became clear that the Phoenix Five needed to be gotten under control. He’s still not a fan of a lot of the Avengers but understand the necessity of having to work together even if a lot of them rub him the wrong way.

Important Headcanons | Fast Facts: 

At a young age, I was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome by my father, which falls under the umbrella of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Because of this, I regularly have complications conversing with others and tend to avoid situations involving bright lights and loud noises whenever possible.

In my free time I used to regularly attempt meditation, take walks with my service dog, Ace, go through equipment checks, review cold cases, and plan patrol routes. Recently, that time has been eaten up with the war effort.

Never have I taken a life, nor will I of my own free will.

Important Headcanons:

Bruce Banner suffered extreme childhood trauma at the hands of his father, Brian Banner, and this has led to him developing a range of mental illnesses, including undiagnosed D.I.D. which manifests in various Hulk alters.

Despite Bruce having a friendly competitive relationship with Tony Stark, he is also secretly resentful of Tony’s popularity and achievements. Bruce believes that he could have achieved as much, if not more, than Tony Stark had he not had the ‘accident’ which unleashed The Hulk.

Since his time on the run, Bruce has gotten into the habit of having a ‘Hulk-out kit’ sewn into his clothing.  This kit includes waterproof matches, a pre-pay debit card, sim card and a needle & thread.

Bruce likes to read cookery books to relax.

Stance on the War: Bruce doesn’t enjoy fighting, but as a member of The Avengers, he acknowledges that Darkseid needs to be stopped… not just for this world, but every world he has enslaved and every world he might go on to conquer.

Abbreviated Bio: [Full bio available HERE] After spending years on the run, Bruce Banner was eventually recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D. to join their ‘Avengers Initiative’.  Trying to use The Hulk to defend humanity from extraordinary threats, while at the same time searching for a cure to his condition, Banner managed find a level of peace and acceptance within The Avengers.

Then Darkseid arrived and everything came crashing down.  The Hulk was defeated by foes more brutal than he was, while as Banner, he tried to come up with a scientific solution, but nothing worked against a technology that seemed more like magic.

Important Headcanons:

Before Darkseid’s invasion, Oliver was considering hanging up his bow, retiring as The Green Arrow and settling down with Dinah. He still wonders about what might have been.

Despite understanding the reasons, Oliver resents the choice that more areas weren’t designated as safe havens and afforded the protection that New York and Gotham receive. He looks at places like Central City, Star City & the ruins of Metropolis and feels that The Avengers & JLA failed to do enough to save them.

Many heroes are satisfied to use The Hub Network to travel between the haven cities, where life seemingly tries to continue as normal.  However, Oliver chooses to travel in the no-man’s-land between the safe zones and The Dark Lands, searching for refugees, liberating work camps and scavenging for resources. 

Stance on the War: Oliver Queen is, at heart, a libertarian and naturally opposes any institution or power which seeks to curb individual freedoms.  Darkseid has literally enslaved the people of Earth and, as The Green Arrow, Oliver will stand against him and fight until his last breath.

Important Headcanons:

Stance on the War: As eager as he is, Damian is aware his involvement is minimal. He is consistently making efforts to prove to his family that he is capable of the bigger missions, but due to the current circumstances, he won’t go off on his own without permission.

Abbreviated Bio: My adaptation of Damian is primarily headcanon-based and adjusted to the canon of this RP. I do not acknowledge Batman: Son of the Demon considering that is considered an AU of its own. Damian has been living with his father since he was ten years old. He struggled adjusting to his father’s ideology and he often clashed with him as well as his brothers, especially Tim Drake and Jason Todd. However, he claims to have matured a lot more in the eight years he’s been under Bruce’s wing. He takes his role as Robin seriously and understands the responsibility of the mantle.
