Name: Jean Grey
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Alias: Marvel Girl

Powers:

Referred to by SHIELD as an "Omega level mutant" with a specialization in telepathy and telekinetics. SHIELD scientists believe there's more to Jean than originally meets the eye, even taking into consideration her mutant abilities. MAGNUS claimed that, "Jean Grey isn't just a mutant. The girl is something beyond mutation. Something more than mutant." This single sentence from MAGNUS has lead SHIELD to keep a close eye on Jean, and to go over old test results with new eyes.

History:
Jean Alida Grey was born the only child to Francis John Grey and Elaine Westin-Grey. When most children are born, the family gathers in celebration. When Jean was born, the lawyers gathered in determination. What would her place be in the carefully litigated structure of one of the country's oldest, and wealthiest, families? It took them three days to have everyone involved sign off that Jean would be the primary heiress of John and Ellie, her parents, her father himself the primary trustee for the Grey Family Trust.

Her childhood was not normal, but this was especially true of her earlier years, when her grandparents had more control. Life was spent more as the ultimate accessory for a family constantly on the move; she was always at the sleeve of someone of importance in the family. Her parents, her grandparents, her uncle, older cousins. Jean learned something from all of them. From her grandparents she learned the ancient rules and rituals in which families should as her's should conduct themselves. From her parents she learned the values she would hold no matter the danger to herself. From her uncle she would learn the wild side of excess and tragedy. From her cousins she'd learn what it really meant to be a modern girl in such an old family, set in it's antiquated society and the norms therein.

She liked dinosaurs, and bugs, and getting dirty, and playing like the child that she was. Her grandmother decried young Jean a hellion, while her typically stoic grandfather encouraged Jean's imagination and sense of life behind his wife's back. It was Elaine that first noticed the signs of change in Jean; she began bothering herself with getting friends outside her own family, she began paying attention more in social situations, she began actually wanting to go shopping; so what if she had to endure two hours of shopping she had no interest in if it meant half an hour on her grandmother's credit accounts?

Her grandfather's death changed much in her family. Her grandmother simply let go of her son and her granddaughter. She still kept in touch, but she was more like a shellshocked soldier. There just wasn't any fight left in her. John and Elaine moved outside the city to northern New York state, the small town lifestyle allowing Jean a new attempt at youth and childhood, now free from family control. It was an opportunity she jumped at, making new friends, and living a new life. Now she spent more time on her hair than mother or grandmother, she believed in a well rounded wardrobe, she immersed herself in beauty and fashion culture during pre-teen years.

The small private plane that ferried Jean and two of her best friends to the Cape and back fell out of the early morning sky a day after Jean's 14th Birthday. The pilot was killed, along with Jean's bestfriends. Jean had some bruising and a few minor lacerations, but nothing more physically wrong with her. The emotional toll, however, would be a nightmare. Jean entered the Syracuse Regional Hospital under the pre-tense of cardiac complications. In truth the girl couldn't speak, frozen in a state of utter terror and trauma. Medically the best paid doctors in the region had no explanation for her state. Much like her birth, the ugly truth of the incident brought together a new team of lawyers representing the many branches of the Grey line and their many trustees.

In a move many later critics would claim could cost the historic family everything, the gathered horde of old white men in very nice suits left only the stipulation that Jean would have to be cleared by three separate teams of psychological professionals before she would regain her rule in the family trust. Behind closed doors, John and Elaine could not have cared less. They could barely take their eyes off their tortured little girl, and preferred to see her back to health before any "family concerns."

The incident of parents lashing out at the family in that moment of pain and extreme worry would cause a rift. Jean would spend the next year in one hospital or another, before the entrance into her life of Charles Xavier. The man found her, alone and desperate in a different realm of reality. A realm not of the one she grew up in wealth and comfort, but a realm of darkness and fire and horrors she had never even imagined before. Her saved her mind from a place it never should have been, understanding in her extreme state of trauma that her powers had activated, that something (now dead) had sought her ought. Why? It would be something the two would investigate to the current day, on and off as what little information presented itself.

Her recovery would take until a few months before her 16th birthday. After so long in recovery centers and hospitals and observation wards, what remained of Jean's base of friends had melted away. She returned to school, and by some miracle (lots of studying and a little telepathic cheating) caught up to her former classmates in time to graduate. The time was enough to win Jean some old friends back again, and to make new ones a less mature, and world weary, Jean would never had engaged with before.

Soon Charles Xavier came back into her life. He warned her of a mutant. A man, an old colleague of his. Of a plan to set the world at war with each other over metahumans. Jean could imagine all the needless death and disaster to so many innocents. She agreed to help, having no idea she was agreeing to become an X-Men at the time of it. The team of (mostly) youngsters saved the world one May summer day on a Chinese airfield home to a handful of nuclear silos. MAGNUS? Was one man. He had no minions. No army of aliens.

That one man almost killed every one of them. Seeing that amount of sheer power, so masterfully used, and used AGAINST her and her team? It changed Jean. 'Power' meant something else, to her, now than it did before. Fights meant something different. Kid gloves were removed, and even then, if she told the truth, Jean will admit to expecting to die that day. Even after Xavier jumped in. Still none of them know exactly what, or who, was the deciding factor. The man who called himself Magneto simply doubled over, sudden as a heartbeat a shell of a the raging power he was just moments before.

It was a ploy. He warned her long ago she should be more proactive with her powers against other people. He took advantage of it, using what power remained to him in a shockwave--it was enough to let him fly off, looking more drunk than in control as he faded from view, and away from all of them. It was enough of a victory. Jean was the first to agree with Xavier; the rest of the world wasn't ready for the Avengers. Grown ass men and women of great power led by some of the smartest on the planet.

These same masses would accept a group of mutated teenagers? They would not, Jean sadly knew. Isolated they could fade into the grind of daily global life. Together they were too powerful. Each team member was assigned a SHIELD contact, and given a ride to anywhere they wanted to go. Jean returned to NYC, to college. Although life hasn't exactly been boring, even she has had her run ins: Jean personally experienced a small violent group of criminals wielding weapons of frightening power she (rightly) assumed had to be converted alien tech. Jean would toss the creeps and take their tech, handing it over to her SHIELD contact, who told her about another metahuman looking into it: Spider-Man. The duo would stay together long enough to take down a man calling himself Shocker.

A friendship built, Peter glad to have someone else "super" around his age to confide in. Even if they come from two vastly different worlds, genetic mutation brought them together, shared pain of being a super powered do-gooder and a university student cemented their bond, and that was something they could both be glad in. She even told him that she was part of a group of others, others mostly around her age. A group of friends.

"Super friends?" Peter asked, grinning.

Primary Superpower: Wolverine is a mutant who possesses the ability to regenerate damaged or destroyed areas of his cellular structure at a rate far greater than that of an ordinary human. The speed at which this healing factor works varies in direct proportion with the severity of the damage Wolverine suffers.

Wolverine’s natural healing also affords him virtual immunity to poisons and most drugs, as well as an enhanced resistance to diseases. His agility and reflexes are similarly enhanced.

In addition, Wolverine’s healing factor provides him with an extended lifespan by slowing the effects of the aging process. Although over a century old, Wolverine is as healthy and physically fit as a man in his prime.

Wolverine also possesses a superhuman level of acute senses, making him capable of seeing things at a maximum distance greater than a normal human’s. 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. Wolverine can use these enhanced senses to track any creature with an impressive degree of success.

Secondary Superpower: Wolverine’s skeleton includes six retractable one-foot long bone claws, three in each arm, that are housed beneath the skin and muscle of his forearms. Wolverine can, at will, release these slightly curved claws through his skin beneath the knuckles on each hand. The skin between the knuckles tears and bleeds, but the blood loss is quickly halted by his healing factor.

Wolverine can unsheathe any number of his claws at once, although he must keep his wrists straight at the moment his claws shoot from his forearms into his hands. When unsheathed, the claws are fully within his hands, and thus Wolverine can still bend his wrists. The claws are naturally sharp and tougher than that of normal human bone structure, allowing Wolverine to cut through most types of flesh and natural materials.

Wolverine’s entire skeletal structure, including his claws, has been artificially bonded to the nearly indestructible metal Adamantium. As a result, Wolverine’s bones are virtually unbreakable, and his claws are capable of cutting through almost any substance depending on its thickness and the amount of force he can exert. Due to his healing factor, the presence of Adamantium in his body does not interfere with his bones’ normal function of generating blood corpuscles. The reinforcement of his skeleton enables Wolverine to withstand high levels of physical pressure, giving his muscles sufficient force to briefly lift/press several hundred pounds.

Skills: Due to his extensive training as a soldier, a C.I.A. operative, a samurai, a spy, and a member of the X-Men, Wolverine is an exceptional hand-to-hand combatant, having mastered virtually every fighting style on Earth. He is also a trained expert in multiple types of weapons, vehicles, computer systems, explosives, and assassination techniques. Wolverine is fluent in many languages, including Japanese, Russian, Chinese, Cheyenne, Lakota, and Spanish; he has some knowledge of French, Thai, and Vietnamese.

Weakness: Despite the extent of his healing factor, Wolverine is not immortal. If the injuries are extensive enough, especially if they result in the loss of vital organs, large amounts of blood, and/or loss of physical form.

Biography

Logan possesses memories of being a Samurai in Japan, a mercenary operative for the Central Intelligence Agency, and a "wild man" in the Canadian wilderness. Due to extensive memory implants given to Logan through the Weapon X program, any or all of these memories are suspect. Logan has at least one memory of meeting Captain America (Steve Rogers) in World War II while he was in the Canadian Army which has been verified as true.

Sometime after World War II, Logan was taken by a group of scientists led by Dr. Cornelius as part of the Weapon X program. Cornelius was hired to perfect and use a technique that would bond the indestructible element adamantium to human bone cells. Logan's skeleton was bonded to the adamantium, and he was indoctrinated into the Weapon X assassin program.

Wolverine was conscripted by Department H, and for his first mission was sent against the Incredible Hulk. Hulk had grown so enraged in the battle, that Wolverine's adamantium claws failed to penetrate Hulk's skin.

The Hulk emerged victorious and Hulk abandoned the unconscious Wolverine, unaware of his healing factor. The defeated Wolverine returned to Department H. Still slated to take leadership of Alpha Flight, Wolverine spent weeks completing some espionage missions, even when various factors made him increasingly troubled by his service to Department H.

Beast - Though he has never really stated anything, Logan actually has a fair amount of respect for Hank. There are a lot of times when the kid showed flashes of being one of the most book-smart people he's ever met, which says a lot, considering that Logan's been living for hundreds of years. The only thing Hank needs is the age and experience to back it up.

Colossus - If you were to ask him about Piotr several decades ago, without knowing him personally, there's no telling what kind of response one would get. However, now though that Logan's learned a bit more about him, he, without a doubt, believes that Piotr is a good kid. A friendly giant. Someone whom he knows would be more interested in saving people than winning fights.

Nickname: Ruskie

Cyclops - Being Chuck's poster boy, he's got all the components one would expect in a team of, kids, really. Like everyone else, some kind of tragic past. He can give Summers a sort of silent admiration. This is especially because of the fact that, even though his past may haunt him, he doesn't let it cloud the person he is. He's got a good head on his shoulders, and is a fairly effective leader, given his serving size of experience. Though, he isn't quite a fan of Scott's "goody two shoes" nature.

Nickname: Boy Scout; Cyke

Jean Grey - To describe Jean, he would simply say that she's the team's sunshine. Her compassionate and kind nature has a tendency to radiate to others. Even in the relatively short time they've been around each other, they've grown rather close. There are times when he looks at her, and feels protective of her, in an almost fatherly fashion. Other times...It's something else, something more...Which is a weird complex, to say the least.

Nickname: Jeanie

Nightcrawler - At first glance Kurt looks like a demon or some kind of cartoon character, though with a team like this, it's always better to go with what doesn't meet the eye. In this instance, he's anything but the monster he appears to be outwardly. If anything negative, he's kind of a pushover. Either way, while he never necessarily went into bouts of questioning god or anything like that, Logan does have respect for Kurt being a man of the faith.

Nickname: Elf

Storm - Ororo is an interesting type of unique. Logan sees her as, not being a genius like McCoy, but being ingenious instead. Where he had the books, she could deal with people. That talent is something more than what he can say for himself a lot of the time. However, with her teenage girl type of moodiness combined with how strong she can prove to be, he isn't quite sure about how to place her yet.

Nickname: 'Roro

Name: Ororo Munroe
Age: 21






Born to a schoolteacher and a physician in San Francisco, California, Ororo enjoyed a life among the mundane for much of her childhood. Many of her hobbies consisted of the outdoors: biking, running, she was also a dual athlete in baseball and basketball at Lowell High School. All was well, as in the initial stages of her teenage years, Ororo lived the regular life of a teenager--until the dreams began to happen. Powerful and vivid visions of herself soaring high into a midnight black sky, violent tremors, lightning illuminating the ebony expanse over her head. She was unbridled. She was angry.

The night terrors had gotten worse, and weeks of persistent lack of sleep began to unseam Munroe’s psyche. Disquieted, Ororo began displaying erratic emotional spikes. These unpredictable shifts and ebbs in behavior not only served to sever many of her familial connections, Ororo began to isolate herself from people as a whole. It was amid this emotional collapse that a series of ‘coincidences’ occurred: the first incident in the high school state basketball championship.

All game a girl nearly a foot taller than Ororo and twenty pounds heavier (and much stronger) had been playing dirty. Knees, elbows, shoving, none of which were regulated by the referees. Ororo was not one who wanted to ruin anyone else’s glory, and so she did as best she could to ignore the slights. Down by one point with six seconds left on the clock, Ororo was given the basketball on a double screen which cleared the lane for a drive--in the post stood her antagonizer, Shaniya Williams, the 6’1 senior girl who had been abusing Munroe all night without repercussion.

When Shaniya cut Ororo’s legs from beneath her in mid-air as Munroe attempted to execute a layup and Ororo swiftly met the unforgiving hardwood of the waxed basketball court face-first, she’d had enough. Temperamental as she was, it only took small and inagging offenses to activate one of her emotional slopes. Ororo’s mocha eyes shifted to a dark blue; it took a few seconds before the winds outside had turned to gales and the roof began to shake. A deafening thunder roll blared across the sky, and just as the roof of the gym was torn from the top of the arena, Ororo fell into the realm of the unconscious.

When Ororo woke, there was a bald headed man standing next to her bedside,

“Hello, Ororo. My name is Charles Xavier.”


Facing a threat dangerous as any she had ever seen, the X-Men and Storm worked together to stop Magneto’s grand annihilation plans. It was in China that Ororo developed a love for Eastern culture; the language, the fashion, the spirituality. After the China incident, Ororo soon returned and enroll in an higher education institution. To this day, Ororo remains overseas. She studies: languages (Arabic, Mandarin, Spanish, Aramic, Hebrew), and Political Science.
