Logan/Wolverine
Jan. 25th, 2011 12:06 pm
The man known as Wolverine knows little of his past. A product of Stryker's Weapon X program, which bound the unbreakable metal adamantium to his skeleton and gave him three foot-long retractable claws housed in each forearm, he was discovered running feral in the Canadian wilderness by Heather Hudson and her husband, John McDonald Hudson, who took him in and christened him 'Logan' after the nearby mountain. He and Marie D'Ancato came to Xavier's after being targeted by Sabretooth and Magneto, and after the events of X2, they both remained as part of the X-Men. A relationship with Marie ended during a 2-year long sojourn in Canada with Alpha Flight, and the two remain close friends, almost family to each other. Upon returning to the school in 2006, he kept to himself, assisting X-Force with their combat training and forming a short-lived relationship with Sarah Morlocke. The arrival of Garrison Kane, another Alpha Flight alumni, helped. Eventually, after the Wendigo incident, Logan realised he needed to mentally regroup, and returned to Canada and Alpha Flight, intending not to return until he had regained control of his beserker-like tendencies and felt he could call himself 'human' again. The massacre of the new Alpha Flight team has finally prompted him to take off again, looking to join Marie in her search of the perpetrators.

Board certified child & adolescent psychiatrist and licensed clinical social worker, Leo worked for former mentor, Professor Charles Xavier, counselling students at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. He added to the student population when he found and arranged for the amnesiac Jane Doe to be brought to the school. He also lived for a time in Salem Center and shared a private practice called Salem Center Counseling Services with a social worker, an art therapist, another psychiatrist, a psychologist, and a marriage therapist. He sees primarily mutant children and adolescents, but also has counseled families who have mutant relatives. He divided his time between SCCS, and Xavier's and occasionally consulted at mental hospitals across the country. He is considered an expert in working with mutant children and teenagers and will often travel across the country for specific cases. In 2009 a bombing at the SCCS resulted in the death of a young client and a crisis of faith for Leo. Concerned about the danger his openly mutant presence posed at the Center, he contemplated relocating to the mansion, to continue his counselling work from there. Before he could make a decision, he became involved in a much larger stage - world politics. An expert on mutant child and adolscent psychology, he gave several talks in Germany, as well as being involved in a closed doors conference with several leading figures in mutant rights. This stirred him to consider the wider plight of mutants, and having been in Pakistan following the terrorist action that left half a million dead, he decided to relocate to the Indian subcontinent in August 2009 in order to provide assistance to the traumatised survivors and to educate them about mutants.
