Profile
Daken is a child of awful tragedy. Torn from his mothers womb as a child by nefarious forces and seemingly abandoned by his father, Daken has no real direction in life...and has a host of issues to account for. Daken is trying to make sense of the world, entering it once more out of a self-imposed exile....to try to understand it. He wants to make his father proud.

Description
Click to expand.
Daken stands before you at 5'10" tall, with a full head of long hair that comes down to about his shoulders and a small beard threatening to break in. his eyes are as blue as the ocean sea, beautiful as a raging storm. While he may not be the most handsome man in the world, he is still rather beautiful for a man. strong jawed, sharp gaze, and a powerful physique...just like his father. Alongside of his body is a tribal-appearing tattoo that covers most of his left arm down to the wrist. His skin depicts a mixed heritage...only just slightly darker than the average Caucasian.
He wears a fur coat to keep him cool as well as stylish, a dark red T-shirt right underneath that. black fingerless gloves to cover his hands, coal-black jeans, and of course, black combat boots. He doesn't bother with hats, as he likes his hair to be unkempt and wild like he is.

History
Click to expand.
In 1946....the fruits of Logan's marriage to his wife Itsu in postwar Japan would prove to sprout and grow. For their child started to grow in Itsu's womb. For such a brief time in the grand history of the world, their marriage was happy, perfect...but like all of Logan's stories...they tend to have a tragic ending. Itsu was killed by an assassin in the hopes of luring out the Wolverine, who assumed both wife and child were dead, left in such a woe that it crushed him. But unbeknownst to both parents, Akihiro received more than they both had intended: Including a healing factor. Saved from death by such a mutation, he was stolen away by a government agent named Romulus, one of the people who wanted to kill Wolverine, and left him at the doorstep of a lovely couple: Akihira and Natsumi. While they believed him to be a blessing since Natsumi was seemingly infertile, they raised the child as their own, giving him the name 'Akihiro'. Though as Akihiro grew up...some of the other children and families took to calling him 'Daken'....meaning, "Mongrel" In Japanese due to his heritage.
His claws first sprouted when Natsumi disowned Daken after a series of awful events from the locals and even herself after believing that she never loved Daken. After Natusmi attempted to attack and kill him, his trio of claws from both hands killed her that night. Akihira, sadly, did love Daken, and decided to take his own life rather than harm the boy he loved.
Though Daken would encounter Romulus as he went on his own way into the world, and Romulus was the man who trained Daken. After such events, he traveled the world, learning such dying practices such as the way of the samurai..a code that he keeps with him to this day. He honed his skill from learning from teachers all around the world...even going so far as to excel in the underworld, which he did. Though this didn't last long...as he was found by Romulus once more.
Having his claws dipped in adamantium by that man after using him as an assassin, Daken worked for him for years...until he had enough. Quitting, and leaving into a self exile after committing a multitude of heinous acts, including fighting with lethal intent against his father and sister.
Now....he returns to the world stage, intent on reconciling with his father and family. Beyond this...who can say? Daken's perfectly content with taking things one step at a time.

Personality
Click to expand.
Daken is a master manipulator...even when he's not trying. Though this is coupled with a mutant ability, he is one who is skilled at Knowing just what to do to get people to love him, hate him, fear him. He's so widespread about who he is that he can be aggressive one moment, then calm the next. Extremely likeable, then insufferable. In the end, it all depends on the situation and of whom, or rather, to whom he's speaking. He can sometimes think too hard on power, influence...wanting to survive. But he cares deeply when he does about people...and such things can't be broken...even with broken people like Daken himself.
Abilities
Click to expand.
ADAMANTIUM CLAWS
One of Daken's core mutations that mimics his father: Claws. Daken possesses three retractable claws housed beneath the skin and muscle of his forearms; two on the top of his hands and one underneath. Unlike his father, his bones are apparently black and rough, though -far- sharper. This only grew when they were coated in adamantium by Romulus. Where before they could slice through iron and steel with the appropriate force, he can now cut through virtually anything aside from Vibranium. With this...it is most certainly Daken's most lethal quality.
HEALING FACTOR
Daken's primary mutant power, that he especially inherited from his father as a second-generation mutant is an accelerated healing factor. With this, his healing factor is so strong that it allows him to rapidly regenerate any damage done to him. even regenerate missing limbs. He regenerates from gunshot wounds and stabs in seconds, serious injuries in minutes, and he can regrow his limbs over a long time period. With his healing factor, he possesses a highly extended longevity. He may look perhaps anywhere between twenty-five and thirty, but he's over seventy years old, and shows signs of an -extremely- long life. He doesn't get tired nearly as easily as humans and possesses an incredible stamina. He can't get drunk, and has natural resistance to all diseases, even resistance to poisons (but massive doses can take him down). As long as his healing stays active, he doesn't need to eat, drink, or sleep, and can recover even being blown apart.
PHEROMONE CONTROL
Daken has the ability to manipulate his pheromones. He can use his pheromones to cover his scent so that it can't be tracked, and can use it to control the emotions and sensory perceptions of others. He can make people feel such feelings such as intense fear, happiness, depression, anger, and sexual arousal. Though, in truth, many times it's not even him trying to use it...it's just one of his natural abilities...leaving meeting new people a random experience each time.
SUPERHUMAN SENSES
Daken possesses superhumanly acute senses that are comparable to, and even superior to, certain animals like dogs and wolves. He can track a scent with his nose for miles without losing the trail, recognize people by their scent, hear a long distance away (about a mile), and can even go so far as to tell if someone is lying by the change in their bodies chemical properties.
WILL
Daken has a monstrous, inhuman will that drives him beyond the bounds of most. It certainly doesn't hurt that he also seems to have an almost masochistic draw to pain, which tends to throw off his opponents. His ability to remain collected and cool in the face of massive trauma is simply not a trait that most will ever have, no matter what their superhuman abilities may be.

Skills

MARTIAL ARTS
Daken is a master of hand to hand combat and a multitude of martial arts that he had learned during his travels around the globe. His mastery of fighting styles are incredibly numerous, and he blends it in to his own custom style of combat in a manner that he can best those who are stronger and faster than he is. Much like his skill with his hands, he is gifted with the blade as well...though he mostly uses his claws to solve problems.
MENTAL BLOCKS
Daken has, over the years and his extensive training, developed precautions against telepathic intrusion. It is dangerous to attempt reading his mind and prying too far. Not that most would try, given Daken's tumultuous history and tempestuous emotions, though much of that lies far enough beneath the surface that it would not likely be perceived without obvious risk. There are traps in his mind that prove a potent dissuasive to most mentalists, though a top-level psi may be able to advance past them.
MULTILINGUAL
Daken can fluently read and speak English, Japanese, Greek, and German.
SUBTERFUGE
Daken knows how to hide and undermine others. Used in perfect tandem with his ability to control pheromones, he can manipulate someone into following his commands or undermine them completely. Even without this mutant ability, Daken is very skilled at reading and analyzing others, proving to be a good judge of character. He can ascertain someone's fears, desires, and what they could want. He barely has anything preventing him from at least trying to do so.

CONNECTIONS
Daken knows some people who know some people, and even though they probably don't trust one another, he can sometimes call in a favor or two and get things done...or use his pheromones and get things done, either way. He has had experiences during his time as a mercenary and from his various dalliances with authority in the underworld, ranging from "grey area" legality to outright villains, with a tiny smattering of those among them who might be called heroic.
WOLVERINE
Though their relationship is extremely rocky, depending on the situation he could call upon his greatest family member: Wolverine. Though they've had more than a few catastrophic differences (which has led to claw fights), he can call on him if he -truly- needs it...and is -sincere-.

Weaknesses
Click to expand.
CARBONADIUM
This substance, when introduced to his body, suppresses his healing factor, though not entirely. It slows his healing factor to essentially a crawl until it is removed, digested, or processed. Carbonadium is a fairly rare metal, and it is also radioactive; the primary source of carbonadium was destroyed, but some quantity of the metal still exists around the world. It is more malleable than adamantium, so it can be shaped much more easily, but it is also extremely difficult to destroy.
MURAMASA BLADE
The Muramasa blade. A weapon of Japanese origin whose very blade is meant to completely nullify healing factors. A single cut with this weapon can take up to seven days to heal...even for someone with as strong a healing factor as Daken. If he were ever struck with such a weapon: bad news.
PHEROMONES
The thing with Daken's pheromones is that he can't control it all the time...which means he could unintentionally spark intense feelings of whatever aptitude in someone else for him or about him. This can lead to awkwardness and rather strange encounters. Though not all are exactly repulsed by Daken himself.
RECOGNIZABLE
Daken is a very beautiful human being. Many could find him impossibly attractive, and his sense of attire points him out in a crowd of well-dressed people. He sometimes have to make an effort to disappear rather than do so easily. He's a hard face to forget.
TRUST ISSUES
It's difficult for Daken to maintain any level of trust with anyone, especially after they learn about his ability to manipulate emotions. It's true that most would never find him trustworthy because of this, but it also can make it difficult for him to get things done if trust is a large issue. It's not insurmountable, especially if he applies his charm subtly, but it can complicate matters and burn bridges that he may miss later.
