Rina "Wild Thing" Logan

FULL NAME: Rina Logan

ALIASES: N/A

CODENAMES: Wild Thing

AGE: 16

PLAY BY: Comic Appearance

Over all Appearance: Much like her father, Rina has a slightly feral looking appearance of longer than normal canines, animal-like eyes, and wild jet black hair. At the same time she also greatly resembles her mother the most, especially of having long black hair usually tied in a pony tail and brown eyes. She is rather physically fit and highly athletic, her build being lean and slender with slightly broad shoulders. Her height overall is 5'4 and she weighs 98 lbs. To many she is considered quite beautiful despite her wild appearance, having often been described inheriting this from her mother.


When it comes to wardrobe Rina is far from getting anything that is the in-thing for fashion. She generally prefers to wear a plain t-shirt and jeans, sometimes having a plaid design to many of them and occasionally shorts. Usually she avoids wearing dresses and skirts unless the occasion calls for it. She can often also be seen wearing a pair of shades. Her suit as Wild Thing though is fashioned much like her father's original suit with a dash of her mother's style.

LIKES:
*Spending time with her father
*Training
*Being in the wilderness
*Ice cream

DISLIKES:
*Being  told what to do
*Sometimes her mother treating her like a kid
*Most villains
*Seeing her family harmed

FEARS:
*Losing her family, especially her parents
*Never being able to help those she cares for
*Heights

Over all personality: Rina is nearly the spitting image of how Wolverine has always acted in the past before he "mellowed" out. She is very blunt and to the point with every situation, not being afraid to state her opinion or speak her thoughts. She never sugar coats a situation and is always telling others off. In a sense, she resembles closely to her father's "savageness" of his own personality and she truly can be brutal, angry, and harsh when she wants to be. She is almost like a living wild beast who has a quick temper, making her bite worse then her bark.

Though, Rina does have a somewhat softer side. She cares deeply for her family and those she considers close friends, or who at least earn her trust. She is rather fiercely loyal and protective, willing to go the distance when she has to. Thus she can be rather helpful with others and is actually quite laid back from time to time. She even is known to have a dry sense of humor and a quick, sharp wit some might not expect. She does though like to brag once in a while and try to intimidate those around her at times, even when she might not be trying to.

On another note Rina is also a lone wolf type. She will prefer to do things her way and rarely listen to the authority or orders of others. She'll often times work solo on missions and goes about doing what she feels is necessary to accomplish a task. And many a times she will often go off on her own for long periods of time without saying where or when, a habit she picked up from her father.

FAMILY: Logan "Wolverine" Howlett-Father
Elektra Natchios-Mother
Hudson "Sabreclaw" Howlett-Half Brother
Erista Howlett-Half Brother
Elizabeth "Psylocke" Braddock-Godmother

HISTORY: Much of Rina's earlier life took part in the Canadian wilderness where her father often traveled. She was born some time after Logan and Elektra were married and settled into Logan's cabin he had always used in his past, where they raised Rina from an infant. Since from an early age Rina went to a elementary and middle school in a local town close to their home and for a while grew up as a relatively normal girl.

Least normal as one could describe. Since she was young she began training with her parents in multiple forms of martial arts and hand-to-hand combat on top of going to school and performing decently in school. She often enjoyed trips among the Canadian wild and grew rather close to her father to the point she is very much a daddy's girl but she also has always been close to her mother. Rina never really had to face the family problems of the past nor did she really know much of what her parents did early on. Her parents wanted to wait until she was old enough before they would tell of their pasts. But eventually the two would come to realize Rina was far from being normal.

At the age of twelve during a training session Rina would come to discover she had a healing factor, having been accidently clawed by Logan by mistake but healing instantly from the shallow wounds. And it soon began to become clear Rina's powers were inherited from her father as they discovered her superhuman phyical characteristics and eventually her keen senses as Logan tested her during a walk in the woods. Rina quickly proved to show she was capable of equaling her father in many aspects just as she was nearly equal to her mother in skills such as gymnastics. And on top of these powers Rina learned she had some psionic abilities, which she learned to create Psi-claws due to training with Psylocke when she came around for visits.

By the time Rina reached her high school years her family moved to New Jersey, not being far from New York where Logan once worked as a hero and teacher. From there Rina took on her own hero persona of "Wild Thing" and did many minor missions of her own for a time. She also wasn't exactly considered popular by the high school cool kids who often tried to push her buttons and make her life miserable. Though this changed when Logan picked her up on his motorcycle a few times. Still though Rina was on her own in a heroic career and dealing with a teenager's life. She even briefly joined a team consisting of the current villainess Magneta and another mutant known as Daze, though the team broke up shortly after Rina left due to discovering Magneta's evil intentions but she lost contact with her and Daze shortly thereafter.

Now at sixteen she has caught the attention of the new Avengers team, sometimes fondly dubbed A-next by the public. She was offered membership after a time which she refused at first before finally deciding a little change might be in order since she became bored with common crime fighting. Since a few months ago Rina has become an avid member but also causes some frustration for her "lone wolf" nature and has began a romantic relationship with SHIELD agent and sometimes fellow teammate Sam Alexander, also known as Nova.

POWERS: 
*Regenerative Healing Factor: Just like her father, Rina's primary mutant power is an accelerated healing factor. This healing factor allows her to regenerate damaged or destroyed bodily tissues far more extensively and faster than a normal human is capable of. Injuries that result in great disuse damage or loss, such as multiple gunshot or knife wounds, heal completely within a matter of minutes. Aside from the tissue regenerative qualities of her healing factor, Rina is immune to the effects of most drugs and toxins as well as to all known diseases and infections. As with her father's healing factor, Rina's grants her an extended lifespan by causing her to age much slower than a normal human

*Superhumanly Acute Senses: Rina's senses of sight, smell, and hearing are enhanced to levels comparable to those of certain animals. She is capable of seeing and hearing with much greater clarity and at much greater distances than an ordinary human. She can also use her highly acute sense of smell to recognize people or objects by their scent, even to the point of tracking them if necessary.

*Superhuman Strength: Rina is superhumanly strong, though the full limits of her strength aren't known. However, her strength is sufficient to enable her to lift and throw a small car.

*Superhuman Stamina: Rina's accelerated healing factor also causes her musculature to produce less fatigue toxins during physical activity. Much like the rest of her powers, the full limits of her physical stamina aren't known. However, she can exert herself at peak capacity for at least several hours before the build up of fatigue toxins in her blood begins to impair her.

*Superhuman Agility: Rina's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are all enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.

*Superhuman Reflexes: Rina's reflexes are similarly enhanced and are superior to those of the finest human athlete.

*Psi-Claws: Rina possesses minor psionic powers that she is able to physically manifest in the shape of psychic claws. The claws themselves manifest on the back of her hands and are similar in shape to those of her father's claws. Typically, however, this power is similar to Psylocke's psychic knife and she can use these claws to strike an opponent, which causes mental damage rather than physical. However, through concentration, Rina is able to make the claws solid and, in this state, they are capable of inflicting physical damage. While solid, they are capable of cutting most conventional materials. If she inserts these claws she can connect to one's mind and she can disable, block, or control any part of one's body

WEAKNESSES: 
*Rina does not have her father's bone claws nor is her skeleton laced with adamantium, making her more susceptible to possibly still breaking bones or being killed.
*Her healing factor is not quite as strong as her father's meaning regenerating limbs or healing from serious wounds take a slightly longer time period compared to Wolverine's.
*Though her Psi-claws can also deal physical damage on top of mental damage to have them solid takes a lot of concentration and focus, this resulting in her easily causing mental exhaustion and possibly physical exhaustion.
*With still being young Rina still has some time before she gains full control of some of her powers, especially her psionic abilities and it's unknown if they will evolve further or if her skills will ever be on par with her father's.

Writing sample: "The Avengers have always been a thorn in our sides, and not much we can really do since we're still very much a small team." Blake said as he recalled several times when they had tried to take them on and had not done so well. And there were many a time they've fought individually or rarely as a pair of two, making things difficult to work as a team. That was until the Circus of Crime came to town and despite Hyacinth and Barney trying to do it alone it had in the end required all four to participate and take them down as one. Maybe that was one of the first steps in them actually working as a team instead of solo like they were use to.



"I'd say I'm more on the side of being a corrupt knight my dear lady, being a knight in shining armor is hardly the correct reference." Blake told her as they began to walk, the daylight not even bothering him like most vampires. It was the benefit of being a half-vampire for some since the sunlight wasn't entirely as bothersome as it would be. "Though I will take great care not to overstep my boundaries. Alliances can be rather fickle, fragile things and doing so might break this little partnership we are attempting." He assured her, not really wanting to look for trouble but still couldn't say the same for all the rest of his team in the long run. This was especially so for Barney and Hyacinth who tended to be the most difficult ones on the team in the long run.



But the fact Anya seemed so interested in Hyacinth made him a little surprised yet at the same time not entirely. She was probably use to such people and how they acted so the feline alien might prove to be an asset to this alliance perhaps. "I think one piece of information that is going our way is we do have a bit of Stark's tech but our tech guy is still deciphering how it works entirely. So it's kind of a difficult situation to say when we might be able to understand more about how Tony Stark's technology works. That or we can end up using it to our advantage one of these days." He told her as they walked and ignored the stares they got. It likely was no doubt they were shocked to see the Mistress of Magnetism and a demon-looking man walking the streets as if they owned the place.
