Super Powers:
Regenerative Healing Factor: Deadpool possesses a superhuman healing factor derived from that of the mutant Wolverine that allows him to regenerate damaged or destroyed bodily tissue with far greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. Deadpool is able to heal injuries such as slashes, puncture wounds, bullet wounds, and severe burns within moments. His healing factor is developed to the point that he can regrow missing limbs and organs. Unlike Wolverine’s natural healing factor, Deadpool’s is mentally driven to a partial extent. His healing factor also keeps the cancer developed in his body at bay, as well as giving him a resistance to foreign chemicals, diseases, and some extended longevity.
Telepathic Immunity: The healing factor causes his brain cells to be in a constant state of flux and regeneration, rendering him immune to psychics such as Professor X and Emma Frost.
• Superhuman Strength: Because of his healing factor, Deadpool can push his muscles to levels beyond the natural limits of an ordinary human being without sustaining injury, giving him some degree of superhuman strength. He is capable of lifting about 2 tons.
• Superhuman Stamina: Deadpool's musculature generates considerably less fatigue toxins than the muscles of an ordinary human being, granting him superhuman levels of stamina in all physical activities. He can physically exert himself at peak capacity for at least 24 hours before fatigue begins to impair him.
• Superhuman Agility: Deadpool's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. This also gives him limited superhuman reflexes. They are also fine tuned to above what any of the finest athletes can do. He cannot dodge bullets or the like.
Learned Abilities:
Deadpool is an extraordinary hand-to-hand combatant and is skilled in multiple unarmed combat techniques. He is a master of assassination techniques, is an excellent marksman, and is highly skilled with bladed weapons (frequently carrying two swords strapped to his back). He is fluent in Japanese, German, Spanish, amongst other languages.
Equipment: He owns a personal teleportation device, usually located on his belt. He also carries an Image Inducer, which allows him to project holographic disguises. He usally has two swords strapped to his back and you'll never catch him without as many guns as he can fit on his person.
Weaknesses (Must Have): Given that his healing factor is partially mentally based, Deadpool recovers easily from larger wounds, but smaller cuts and injuries don’t heal as fast. He’s also nearly insane, and his mood fluctuates, keeping him from forming any long lasting strategy.
Background: After his mother died from cancer, his father was killed by a drunken friend and he was kicked out of the Army Special Forces, Wade joined Project X.
Little is known of Wilson’s subsequent mercenary activities. At one point he was active in Tangier, Morocco, where he romanced a woman named Francie. When this relationship soured, he traveled throughout Asia, and was hired in Japan by a crimelord, the Boss, to infiltrate a sumo-wrestling ring owned by a rival criminal, the Oyakata. Wilson spent three years as a wrestler under the Oyakata’s tutelage and became romantically involved with his mentor’s daughter, Sazae. When the Boss finally ordered the Oyakata’s murder, Wilson refused to complete his assignment, allegedly the first time he had ever done so, and relocated to the United States.
In America, Wilson met and fell in love with teenage prostitute Vanessa Carlysle (Copycat), with whom he shared dreams of a better life. Wilson was subsequently hired by Middle Eastern interests to assassinate a blind British government operative named Althea, also known as Blind Al, but upon arrival at the Zaire base where she was stationed, he killed everyone except for Al who had fled. Wilson’s employers sought vengeance for his failure by targeting Vanessa, who was rescued by Zoe Culloden, an employee of the interdimensional firm Landau, Luckman, Lake, and LeQuare. Culloden was keeping Wilson under surveillance, believing he was destined to play a vital part in a potential threat to the world.
Learning that he had contracted cancer, Wilson broke up with his girlfriend Vanessa rather than force her to remain with a terminally ill man He even gave up his chemo treatments, not wishing to prolong things. In Canada, he was offered hope in the form of Department K, a special weapons development branch of the Canadian government. Wilson became a test subject in Department K’s branch of the joint U.S./Canadian superhuman enhancement project, the Weapon X Program; his cancer was temporarily arrested via the implantation of a healing factor derived from another Department K agent, the mutant adventurer Wolverine. Wilson was active in a covert field unit alongside the near-invulnerable Sluggo and the cyborgs Kane and Slayback. Vanessa herself was later affiliated with the team after having manifested mutant shapeshifting abilities, calling herself Copycat.
During one mission, Wilson killed his teammate Slayback. As a result, he was rejected from the Weapon X Program and sent to the Hospice, allegedly a government facility where failed superhuman operatives were treated. However, unknown to the Canadian government, the Hospice’s patients served as experimental subjects for Doctor Killebrew and his sadistic assistant Ajax (known then as The Attendant), with the patients placing bets in a "deadpool" as to how long each subject would live. Killebrew subjected Wilson to various torturous experiments for his own deranged satisfaction. In due course, Wilson formed a romantic relationship with the cosmic entity Death, who regarded him as a kindred spirit. Wilson started trying to kill himself, to join Death - going so far as to start taunting Ajax by saying his real name (Francis) over and over, which earned him the respect of his fellow Hospice patients. Then Ajax, angered by Wilson’s taunts, lobotomized Worm, the closest thing Wilson had to a friend. At Death’s prompting, Wilson killed him to end his suffering. However, under Killebrew’s rules any patient who killed another was to be executed; Ajax subsequently tore out Wilson’s heart and left him for dead, but Wilson’s thirst for vengeance was so strong that it jumpstarted his healing factor, regenerating his heart, although not curing his scarred body. Wilson then escaped the now-empty room and attacked the guards, making hiw way to Ajax. Wilson shot him in the chest with two automatic rifles, leaving him for dead. Taking the name Deadpool, escaped from the Hospice with his fellow patients.
After his escape, not much is known of his whereabouts, although he’ll occasionally hang out at Xaviers to annoy people.
Personality : Wades brain being in constant flux has no set personality. The only thing one can really predict is that he’s unpredictable. He can be happy go lucky one moment, but mean and angry the next, giving him sort of a bipolar attitude. He commonly breaks the fourth wall, as he’s come to realize he’s a fictional being in every sense.

Brief Sample Roleplay
Deadpool silently stalked his prey, he'd been formerly hired to take out a big time gang boss that had been causing some people alot of grief. He wasn't just a small gang boss either, gang was more of an understatement, his numbers were more like a small army, but that didn't really make a difference to Deadpool, not at all, infact it gave him more people to use as human shields againts the bullets, he may be able to heal all his wounds, but it still hurt like hell to get shot. The boss was fancy, he was in a limo, he seemed to be a show off, with his suit and his sunglasses, hell, he even had the cigar! This dude was the classic gangster, no doubt about that. Deadpool continued moving after the limo by moving on the rooftops, this city seemed to be practicly built for this chase.
After a few mintutes the limo stopped, it was the bosses hideout, and big suprise, it was practicly a mansion, and he had enough people guarding it as well. This was his only chance to take out the guy, unless he wanted to fight through scores of lackies, and no matter how much he enjoyed killing lackies he would have to pass on this one. Before the boss could get out, Deadpool jumped from a roof, and did a cool spin in the air from dramatic effect, drawing his blade and bringing it down through the roof of the limo and straight into the bosses head, Deadpool left quite a dent in the roof too, he needed to lay off thouse chips. There were about ten guards present, and they weren't to happy to be cut off their pay roll.
Deadpool did a backflip off the limo and drew his two uzi's, sending a spray of bullet's at the lackies, yelling "I hope your hungry!" at them. He landed on the ground perfectly, bullet's whizing past him, it seemed a few had surrvived his little assalt. He still had some ammo left in his clips, so he emptied it out on the leftover ex-lackies. He quickly put his guns back in their holsters and made off with the get away, he wasn't sticking around for the reinforcements.
