X-23
LAURA KINNEY ♦ VIGILANTE ♦ XAVIER SCHOOL FOR HIGHER LEARNING ♦ X-MEN/INDEPENDENT
C H A R A C T E R C O N C E P T:
"I'm not your experiment. I'm not your **** property! No one owns me! I'm not a thing!"
X23 was the result of a top-secret program attempted to recreate the original Weapon X experiment that had created the feral mutant Wolverine. Geneticist Sarah Kinney was tasked with creating a male clone, and after failing 22 times with an incomplete genetic sample, she proposed the idea of making a female clone. Despite her denied request for a female clone to be made, she still went ahead with the procedure anyway using her DNA along with that of Logan, who was Wolverine. As the result of her insubordination, Dr. Kinney was forced to act as the surrogate mother for the specimen, and gave birth to subject X-23.
Countless years of brutal experiments were carried out in attempts to accelerate her growth into a super weapon. Next came the trigger scent which turned her into a feral killing machine that killed anyone laced with it. She was then released into the field for assassinations and she proved to be a highly successful. X-23 finally managed to escape from the research facility years later, killing most of the people in charge of the experiments she was a part of. Zander Rice came up with a plan to torture X-23 further. Secretly, he soiled Dr Kinney's clothes with the trigger scent, then arranged for both X-23 and Sarah Kinney to be in the same room. The test had worked on her sensei, and this will work just fine too. Unable to fight against the trigger scent's conditioning, X-23 was forced to kill her mother against her will. Before passing away, X-23 was given the name Laura by her Sarah.
After her mother’s death, she made it her goal to track down the man responsible for it all, Wolverine. The two eventually met, and after the two came to blows, he eventually calmed her down. She was enrolled into the Xavier Institute and overtime found herself becoming very curious and interested over the man she sought to kill since the very day she left the research facility.
Despite his initial reservations, Logan eventually took her in, trained her and began the father figure she had never had in her life. As she grew older and more mature, she tried to tap in to the more human side of things that her mother had used to teach her when she was young in a bid to rein in her violent nature. Zander Rice may be dead, but the Facility wasn't going to give up on her so easily. Sooner or later, they'll want their prized subject back, and they'll do anything to get her back.

Laura has never been the talkative sort. She is blunt, direct and straight to the point. Raised in a controlled environment, she speaks using proper english, rarely using any slang. Brought up to be a living weapon, she is highly trained and skilled combatant. After joining the Xavier Institute as a student, she began to explore the more human side of her that her mother had tried to made sure she still retain despite the difficult circumstances back at the research facility. She initially felt out of place and didn't feel she belonged anywhere. Being part of a team helped her to adjust to a world better, but she still has trouble comprehending and expressing all these different feelings she had never felt before. She also gets to feel romantic feelings for the first time.
As she began to spend more and more time with others at the Institute, she became more like a regular young adult, as she started to adopt the use of slang words more often, and also developed a sarcastic witty intelligent side to her that had never been present before. As she grew older and more mature, she began to open more, and begin living the life she was deprived of for most of her life. The relationship between Logan and Laura had never been an easy one or a bed of roses.
Logan's priority has always been trying to gain the trust of his daughter, and it would be a long time before the two would eventually become any sort of close. If possible, I would like to play her out as she continues to discover herself and possibly develop relationships with others at the Institute to develop her character and personality further as the story develops.

Warren Worthington III (Angel) - The two of them started a relationship during their teenage days which continued on and off after all these years. They split after a fierce argument about the unnecessary ricks she keeps taking and how reckless she was, but they eventually reconciled after coming to understand each other's feelings.
I don't really know what else to add here, but I 'll probably add more characters as the story develops.

S A M P L E P O S T:
Even after all these years, I can still recall the very first time I met Logan. All that rage and pain, I’ve never expected to get close to the man. If you’ve told me that I would’ve gotten as close to Logan to even miss his presence and regard him as a father then, I would have probably stabbed you in the face with my claws just to shut you up. After all, I’ve been told over and over again since I was young that the reason I was designed and created was to kill Logan, subject X, and the notion of that was simply ridiculous.
That psychopath Zander Rice had been explicitly clear whenever he did any form of experiment of torture on me that ‘Wolverine’ was the cause of all my pain, and it would only go away once I killed him. Once I saw him, I attacked, but the man didn’t strike back at me, only ever defending my blows while trying to reason and persuade me to gain my trust. Trust was the something that came easily to me by any means. I remember being so curious about the man I've heard so much about. He had mentioned many times how I was a human of my own choosing, and not simply just a super weapon as I had been led to believe by Rice.
Anyhow I was glad that I trusted him enough to go with him to Professor Xavier’s school. I hadn’t realised what I had been missing out on life until I met the other students of my age. For the first time I got to interact with other mutants, and I was no longer a caged beast, only unleashed whenever I was required to kill someone important. Trust was difficult for me, but my new friends along with Logan helped me to slowly break away from my shell, and slowly open myself up to the world.
"I knew I'd find you here Laura."
A familiar voice roused her from her thoughts.
"I'm doing just fine professor."
"Are you? There's so much rage in you. You can learn to control it. Channel it."
"Can I really? I was made to be a weapon. I've killed people."
"If you're willing to try and work hard, there's always a way."
"All I've ever known is to kill. Can I really be more than just a weapon?"
The professor gave her a sad smile before he replied.
"Of course, Laura. It all starts with you."
