Skills:
Advanced Tactical Combat/Small weapon/ small firearm skill:
Covert Ops Training-Due to the Facility, Laura was trained to be a living weapon. Along with her powers, she knows how to use a array of hand held pistols and explosives.

Hand-to-hand Combat-Within the Co Ops training Laura learned many martial arts. She only ever mastered Krav Maga though fully.
Multilingual-She can speak ;English,French,and Japanese
Personality:
Laura is a very un-approachable person. She gives off no charismatic vibe whatsoever. Preferring to stay in a corner or dark area for hours, even days. When she does talk, it is generally to herself, in a barely audible voice. She doesn't enjoy making new friends, or friends in general, staying to herself instead.
However, if approached, Laura will respond with a either witty, sarcastic remark, earning her the title of 'bitchy' or a sincere remark. To those that truly know Laura, she is a hopeless romantic. Lost in a fairy tale world that is buried deep inside of her. Occasionally, though very rarely will she allow herself the pleasure of dreaming these simple things.
As far as sex life goes, Laura has had it and she enjoys it, as most. She is by no means a 'slut' though her clothing line may tell differently. She finds both males attractive and will sometimes lay response to those urges.

- Roses
- Dark clothing

The Mutant
Codename:X-23, Talon
Mutant Abilities:
Regenerative Healing-Be it a scratch, scrape, near lethal, or very lethal wound, it can heal. Depending on the damage (ex. Axe to back) it will take longer to heal. Minor cuts and bruises heal within seconds
Admantium Claws-These claws can cut through anything, save for diamond and admantium itself. Nothing else is immune. It will pierce as well, never damaging the admantium. She has two claws that protrude from her far two knuckles (on each hand), ad one from the top of her foot (on each leg)
Superhuman Strength-She is insanely strong for her size, easily being able to lift two washing machines with ease.
Superhuman agility-The girl is quick. Almost animal-like. She is able to dodge simple attacks with swords and the like, not bullets.
Superhuman Smell- She can track a cat in a garbage dump. Able to pinpoint the keenest of smells
Superhuman Reflexes-She can bounce back up after you knock her down, or scare her
Superhuman Stamina-She can take a few punches. Nothing Hulk size, but damn close
Weaknesses: (Weaknesses related to powers, personality, fears etc etc)
Regenerative Healing-Anything that results in loss of a vital organ or limb, means Laura looses it for good. She cannot recover from something like that, and she is sure to die trying. Her power trying to heal, not succeeding. She is no immortal.
Admantium Claws- While these are being drawn out, they do break the skin, causing it to bleed, it is quickly dealt with her healing power. Laura's wrists and feet, where the claws come out, must be straight when she pulls them out. Otherwise she will tear through sever tendons and such.
Superhuman Strength-This is limited, as everyone is. She cannot lift anything over 500lbs.
Superhuman Agility-Again, bullets are not a thing she can dodge, a sword however, since it is longer and generally harder to control she can move with ease.
Being Alone-Laura is not a 'people person.' But that doesn't mean she doesn't like civilization. She enjoys being a part of society. If she were to be locked up in a solitary room, without any means of escape she would slowly start turning to insanity for a friend.
Hospitals-Laura can't stand being in a hospital for more than a few hours. They remind her too much of the Facility.
Family-Although not a real weakness families tear at Laura's heart due to the fact that she never had one.
Trigger Scent-This one scent will send Laura into a Berserker Rage. Killing everything in her path. This will fade off as the scent does.
Magnetism - Due to the adamantium in her claws, she can be easily held at bay, disabled, etc, by a strong enough magnetic force.
History:
Laura Howlett was born in Alberta, Canada, to a wealthy and decent sized family. She spent a lot of time with her brother James, playing as often as she could with him and his friends. There weren't a particularly large amount of people in the area, but so long as she got to spend time with James she was happy. Laura never minded spending time with them, but as they grew older, Dog became increasingly more frightening. To the point where her mother would start to deny her the privilege of spending time with them. Though sometimes she would anyway, until the time came that the teenage Dog changed completely. He tried to assault Rose, and turned his violence on James' dog, causing the family to expel them from the house.
then the night came when the Howletts were overturned. Laura didn't know the details of the incident, only that she awoke to the sounds of a heated argument downstairs between Thomas, John, and Elizabeth. Though she was overly curious, she obeyed James telling her to stay. Though to this day she regrets that.
The sound of a gun shot sounded, and from there she could hear yelling. The details from there were fuzzy, connected only to the sound of her mothers voice and the disappearance of her brother.
She stayed up all night and up until the following one, when she couldn't stay up any longer. She fell asleep and awoke the next morning to a letter from James.
Laura, in an attempt to find him and get him to return home, ran away. She took enough money to have a short trip, and had every intention of returning soon. Unfortunately the bets laid plans always go to waste.
After making it to a larger town, though feeling a bit under the weather, she was found by a visiting Doctor from the United States. A man who called himself Dr.Rice. He took her to a mobile lab and tested her for the basic illnesses, or so she thought.
But his real intention was to find the Mutant Gene with a system set up by the Weapon X Project, his employer.
After drugging and sub sequentially kidnapping her and a handful of other younger-aged mutant gene holding children, the experiments started. Radiation was used to activate their genes, though most didn't survive that process. Laura did, because her healing factor and claws activated. Two in each hand, one in each foot.
From here the process started, one by one the others were killed off during some part of the experiment. Some through failed weapons training, others through inability to cope with the violent conditioning.
Laura, however, was the exception. She lived, she was taught, and she was transformed. Within a year of her stay she knew the basics of combat and her claws were forcibly sharpened and coated with Adamantium.
By year two, she was learning tactics and combat. The levels increased until year five, when they started to use their new weapon for profit. Hired out like a mercenary, her killing went to the highest bidders. A section of the money going to her, but most to the Project.
Laura, no matter how much they tried, couldn't be fully controlled. She had a tendency to go off the wire, making multiple escape attempts on various missions. It wasn't until her sixth year at the place that she was able to succeed in this.
Due to her ability to control her skills and powers, she's once again on the search for her brother.
RP Sample:
Laura stepped onto the grassy lawn. Every blade manicured to perfection. The statutes were of the highest quality and they even seemed to sparkle. Rolling her eyes slightly Laura shifted her shoulder bag closer to her body. Taking a heavy clunking step in her 'goth' trend boots. They reached her knees and were covered in buckled. Her skirt, also covered in buckled clunked silently along.
Reaching the front door she grabbed the handle slightly and gave a small push along with a intake of breath. She was nervous. Her! Nervous? Why? She had taken on worse things than a bunch of school kids her own age. Swallowing her worry she fully entered the building.
Immaculate didn't even begin to cover it. Sighing she turned and saw the Administrations Office. Heading to wards there, Laura began her journey to this new world, hoping she wouldn't drown within it.
