Biography[]
Logan[]
X-23 is a young mutant girl born in the alternate future where mutants have all but died off. Said by Charles Xavier to be "very much like" Logan, she's the first new mutant either have encountered in at least twenty years. Pursued by Pierce and his Reavers, Laura may help provide the key to the survival of the vanishing mutant race.
Personality[]
Laura has no knowledge of the outside world, or how it works. This is because she was isolated by Transigen for her whole life. As a result of this, Laura doesn't know much about how the world works and how to act around people she doesn't know.
Laura has many of the behavioural traits that her father had. She's quite easy to anger, and resorts to violence whenever she doesn't get her way - as seen when she flips the store clerk on to the ground and nearly stabs him just because he took away her snacks; as well as the time she decked Logan in the face when he told her that he couldn't get her to North Dakota and told her that Eden didn't exist. Though it isn't her fault, since she was engineered and taught to fight and to be a soldier.
Even though she does have some anger issues, Laura exhibits kindness and selflessness. Some examples of this, is when she shielded Charles from being shot while escaping the Reavers for the first time. She also silently tried to comfort Logan after Charles's death, by putting a comforting hand on his wrist.
Powers and Abilities[]
As a clone and the daughter of Wolverine, Laura possesses most of his mutant abilities. Most Notably, she possesses an accelerated healing factor that repairs damage almost instantaneously. Her healing factor has enabled her to survive point blank explosions strong enough to blow up large buildings, being dropped in vats of acid, attacks from superhumanly strong foes such as beatings from the Blob, or the Sentinels. She's shrugged off being shot, even through the head at times and has shown to regenerate entire limbs and organs.
Weaknesses[]
- Limited Durability: Although X-23 has adamantium infused into her claws, it does not extend to her skeleton, making her more vulnerable for broken bones and severed limbs, although neither of these have been seen. However, X-23's accelerated healing factor, superhuman durability, endurance and stamina makes up for the lack of an adamantium skeleton.
Non-Canon Appearances[]
X-Men: The Official Game[]
X-23 was at Alkali Lake to find out about her past. She was looking for Colonel William Stryker when the X-Men came. She thought they were bad people and she attacked them. There she fought Wolverine, Colossus, Nightcrawler and Iceman. She was defeated and said she was going to try and find answers.
