The child, the 23rd and only viable embryo in the project, was experimented upon and had her natural-born claws coated in Adamantium much like her father&#8217;s. After her handler trained her with a trigger scent, she was set loose upon her mother and killed her in a murderous frenzy. She was found and arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. but managed to track down Wolverine and explain her past and their connection. They form a relationship and after demonstrating her innocence, she returns to Wolverine and later joins the X-Men for training and work with her father.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Relationships:<\/strong> Wolverine, biological father; Dr. Sarah Kinney, biological mother; Daken, brother; Gabby Kinney, clone\/sister; Megan Kinney, maternal cousin; Angel, lover; Gambit, close friend; Psylocke, close friend<\/p>\n<p><strong>First Versus appearance:<\/strong> Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds<\/p>\n<p><strong>Appearances in other media:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Television<\/strong>: Wolverine and the X-Men (animated), The Super Hero Squad Show (animated), Hulk vs. Wolverine (animated)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Film<\/strong>: Logan<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video games<\/strong>: X-Men the Official Game, Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Marvel: Avengers Alliance, Marvel: War of Heroes, Marvel Pinball, Marvel Heroes, Marvel Contest of Champions, Marvel Future Fight, Marvel Puzzle Quest, Marvel Strike Force<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Name: Laura Kinney Alias: X-23, Captain Universe, Talon, Wolverine Affiliation: Weapon X, X-Men, New X-Men, Avengers Academy, X-Force Special abilities: Superhuman strength, durability, senses, reflexes, agility and animal-like attributes, regeneration, Adamantium-covered retractable claws in hands and feet, expert armed and &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/2022\/08\/12\/marvel-character-highlight-31-x-23\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[372,22,128,183,72,378],"class_list":["post-1232","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-marvel-character-highlight","tag-issue-42","tag-marvel","tag-marvel-character-highlight-2","tag-marvel-vs-capcom-3","tag-staff","tag-x-23"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1232","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1232"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1232\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1233,"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1232\/revisions\/1233"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1232"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1232"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/gaminginsurrection.com\/TheStrip\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
