RIGHT COLUMN TITLE RIGHT COLUMN SUBTITLE PERSONALITY Victor's spent the better part of his life acting like a wild animal in a human suit, pursuing whatever tickles his fancy with singleminded determination and operating like the world is his playground, taking whatever he wants whenever he wants however he has to. He's relied on violence and intimidation for so long they're practically second nature, reveling in spreading fear to whoever comes too close simply for the fun of it. More recently, however, he's seen fit to try to change for the better. It's imperfect, he still tends to distrust others and prefers to stay in his shack in the forest where he doesn't have to worry about dealing with people, but he's trying. He's realized that scaring people to avoid whatever hardship actually giving a shit might bring doesn't accomplish anything but guaranteeing you're by yourself regardless, and the constant violence and terrorizing has started to lose most of its appeal anyway. That's not to say he's not still impulsive, and short-tempered, but he's trying to curb it. It's a work in progress. HISTORY For convenience and the purposes of fleshing him out, I mostly base him off of his Wolverine: Origins interpretation with a hefty dose of the comics pulled in to supplement. He was born to a cruel and close-minded man and a woman who died when he was a child, a son who was more of an inconvenience to the man who raised him than anything else. His father drank most nights and took his frustrations out on the boy with whatever was handy, a cruel upbringing only tempered by the friendship of the son of his father's employer. His mutant abilities manifested themselves one night when he was thirteen, and while things didn't get easier for him after that, labeled a demon child and treated like an animal, his only friend made things a little easier, and his new abilities made him stronger. Better than the man who had resented him his whole life. As it turned out, he was related to his friend, and after that particular revelation they were out on their own in the world, making their way the best they could. They found their way, fought for it when needed, and eventually became in the employ of the Canadian government as part of an elite military squad. Of course, the more they were engaged in violence the more Victor's...nastier impulses grew, and the more Jimmy needed to keep him in line, right up until Jimmy decided he'd had enough of violence. Those were some of the worst years of his life. Without Jimmy there to keep him in check, his more animal instincts ran wild, devolving him into something much more primitive and wild. He lashed out at anyone who crossed him, no matter how lightly, killed indiscriminately, and essentially took out all his anger and frustration on the world around him, in the process forcing himself to cast aside any shred of humanity that remained. And then he caught up with Jimmy again, and was completely rejected, and things hadn't gotten better for a long long time after. He returned to his roots, took on the mantle of Sabretooth to strike fear into the hearts of any who crossed him. Became a mercenary for hire, an assassin, dumb muscle, whatever paid. Ran with the Brotherhood for a while, before he separated with them over a Difference of Opinion. But after several decades and a lot of soul-searching, Victor eventually reached the conclusion that the way he'd been living wasn't particularly sustainable. He'd methodically turned every friendly face against him and alienated everyone around him through the way he lived, to the point where when the world started to go to shit for mutants he didn't have anything even close to a safe haven to run to; he'd burned all his bridges with the Brotherhood thanks to his temper, and the X-Men didn't trust him enough to look past what he'd done to what they had in common, and in the end it was him against the world. Again. So he went to ground. Found a stretch of woods nobody looked twice at and made it his own. Did a hell of a lot of thinking, and reading, and in the end came to the conclusion that he needed to do better. If he expected to survive in this kind of world he had to get a handle on his shit. Quit blaming instinct and impulse for everything and find some kind of happy medium. So he did. Didn't come easy, but he figured it out, made it work. ABILITIES HEALING FACTOR Victor can heal from just about anything, given enough time. Smaller things are pretty much instant, bigger things take longer. PHYSICAL ENHANCEMENTS Superhuman strength, endurance, durability, reflexes, and agility, as well as the sense of smell of a dog. RETRACTABLE CLAWS Just what it says on the tin. Victor's got five claws on each hand something like a cat's, that can retract or extend at will.
