_PREVIOUS GAME HISTORY:
Most people would have been terrified at the thought of being abducted from their home while they slept and waking up to an unfamiliar and hostile world. Most people would have quickly succumbed to despair at the thought of being trapped in a desolate city, unable to see their family or loved ones again. Most people would've quickly gone insane by the horrors that this Lovecraftian world saw fit to unleash upon them month after month, as regular as infernal clockwork.
Most people weren't already insane like Deadpool was.
When he'd first gotten over his initial shock of being torn from his bed and thrust into what seemed like a completely isolated city, Wade's thoughts on Haven weren't ones of fear or desolation or even despair. While the concept of being in a creepy ghost town and having only enough food to keep you on the right side of starving was worrisome, Wade more or less began to think of Haven as a way of starting over. No one who had unwillingly made the journey along with him seemed to know or care about who he was and where he came from, and it was strange-- and eventually intoxicating-- to know that for as long as he was in this world, he had a clean slate, to brighten or sully his reputation as he saw fit. He saw it as an opportunity to finally become the hero he'd always wanted to be.
A month or so later, he got his chance. One of the natives of Haven, a no-nonsense, short-tempered alcoholic by the name of Jonas, stormed the apartments while the new denizens were sleeping, shouting that "they" had taken his nine-year-old sister Jessica, who had taken pity on the captives of Haven and had made her way into the city with provisions for them. Because of his fondness for children and the fact that he had frightened her away when they had first met, Wade felt ultimately responsible for what had happened to her, and when a rescue party was formed to storm the eastern hospital to try and get her back, Wade eagerly signed up for it. With the help of Alphonse Elric, Wade managed to find the young girl strapped to a laboratory table and in the process of being experimented on. They managed to escape with Jessica alive and in tow, and although Wade wasn't aware of it at the time, that single act of heroism would color his experience in Haven for the rest of his stay. (It also would forge an unbreakable bond with himself, Al, and Jessica, who called both of them her heroes.)
There was no drastic overnight change from anti-hero to hero. Wade still had a long way to go, and he still backslid into his old selfish routines time and time again-- abandoning Al once in his time of need in a fit of pique, being sullen and childish to another dear friend of his, Abel Nightroad, when the latter had been absent with his own issues for some time; threatening the entirety of Haven in a Suicide by Cop ploy after Haven's influences had left him overcome with misery. He transgressed time and time again, and each time he was forgiven; or if not immediately forgiven, challenged to be better than he had been. He came to truly understand the guilt that tore at a person's insides when a friend was disappointed in him, the warm, fuzzy feeling of pride when he did something completely altruistic; even the completely unselfish feeling of love and devotion. For the first time in a long time, Wade had actual, genuine friends-- friends who actually cared about whether he lived or died, and eventually he became determined to ensure that these new friends never had reason to lose their faith in him. What resulted was someone who wasn't completely a hero just yet, but definitely no longer an anti-hero in the purest sense of the word.
Unfortunately, living in such horrifying conditions takes its toll on you after a while, and Wade found his psyche increasingly rattled by the traumatizing experiences he was being put through month after month. Though he attempted to put a humorous face on it as he always had, as the second anniversary of his time in Haven approached, he began to give in to the despair that he and his fellow captives would never get out of Haven. It was only the presence of his friends that kept him from completely succumbing to hopelessness, but his circle of trusted allies was dwindling. The loss of Al and Abel was a devastating blow, as was the disappearance of Clementine and Jessica, whom he had begun to see as his unofficial daughters in this wretched place. He was losing his sense of humor, and desired evermore to rid himself of the suffering of living.
It's no surprise, then, that these scars will accompany him to Tanagura to an extent. No longer able to turn a blind eye to humanity as he had done in the past, Wade is now caught at a crossroads, unable to coincide his sudden altruistic and extroverted streak with the mercenary attitude he's carried with him for so long. Having tasted friendship for the first time in a while, it's no surprise that he will continue to seek out companions in an almost desperate attempt to regain what he's lost. He will also most undoubtedly suffer from post traumatic stress disorder as a result of his experiences, which will probably manifest in an extreme co-dependency, jealousy, panic attacks and binge eating as a result of his two years of malnourishment.
_ABILITIES:
Regeneration - Deadpool is in possession of an enhanced healing factor, implanted into him genetically. As a result he can withstand any sort of wound or trauma without dying. Amputated limbs can be grown back, but it takes some time and is rather painful, so he usually opts to reattach the limb that was cut off if it's still intact. Brain damage also takes time to heal based on the severity, and generally tends to leave him unconscious for half an hour or more. The only thing that can completely stop him is decapitation, but it still won't kill him-- it'll merely put him his body into a vegetative state until his head is found and reattached.
Telepathic immunity - Because of his brain cells being in a constant state of death and rebirth, he is virtually immune to any sort of telepathy or mind control, making his brain a "dead zone" for psychics who wish to converse without having other psychics eavesdrop on them. In spite of this, his own mind is virtually unable to be read beyond snatches of surface thoughts, and anyone who's tried in the past has suffered from migraines, burnout, or-- worst case scenario-- complete brain death.
Immunity to poisons - Wade is impervious to all but the most potent of poisons. Alcohol and tranquilizers seem to have very little effect on him now-- it takes a good amount of effort for him to get drunk or drugged, and he very rarely feels any negative after-effects. That being said, that only applies to mundane substances, but even if he's given a drug that could potentially kill him, he won't die from it-- he'll merely be knocked unconscious for a duration of time until his healing factor can flush the poison out of his system.
Immortality (?) - His accelerated healing factor has increased his lifespan beyond that of a normal human, but to what extent is as yet unknown to him. As of right now, he's in his late fifties, and yet still has the appearance and biological structure of a man in his early-to-mid thirties-- due to the cancer causing the cells within his body to keep dividing, it's essentially stopped him from aging as well.
Weapon and fighting skills - Wade is a master of many martial arts as well as being an accomplished marksman and swordsman. Because of his brain cells being constantly in flux (and thus rendering him able to learn and retain information as quickly as a child would), Wade knows practically everything there is to know about fighting with conventional weapons and fighting styles... and is knowledgeable (and crazy) enough to improvise in unconventional ways as well. He's also skilled in the art of parkour.
Polyglot - Knows thirteen languages (he's been seen to speak Russian, German, Spanish, and Japanese in canon, although he appears to be able to speak more and more languages as the plot demands).
Poisonous blood - More of a side effect of his cancer fueled healing factor than anything else, Wade's blood and flesh has proven to be extremely distasteful to vampires and zombies (being described as tasting like rancid tofurkey dunked in formaldehyde) and has the added effect of making them violently ill.
_PERSONALITY: Being criminally insane in the membrane does give you some interesting personality quirks. There's a reason one of Deadpool's monikers is "Merc With a Mouth"-- he seems to be physically unable to shut the hell up. A master of rhetoric, he's quick to sling taunts and witty comebacks, even at the risk of his own safety. In canon, he had a "devil-may-care"; attitude about the world around him, and seemed to have little regard for anything except for where his next payment is coming from. Because of this, he had very few friends, and even thought of friendship as a "completely bogus concept".
Despite his bravado, however, there is compassion and kindness in that black little heart of his, and it's only gotten more prevalent in recent events. Although he's not ashamed of his career as a mercenary, and money is a very important aspect of his life, deep down in his heart of hearts he dreams of being a true hero; of being respected and adored much like Captain America, Thor, and the rest of his childhood idols. He’s fiercely loyal to the few friends he does have, and even though he might be cold toward them or threaten them with severe bodily harm, he can be very protective of them in his own way. He’s also very intolerant of anyone who would prey on children-- from an assassin’s standpoint, they’re totally off-limits, to the point where he has walked off a mission several times without getting paid as a result of a child getting caught in the crossfire.
Deadpool's insanity has made him strangely self-aware-- he understands to an extent that he's a fictional character and has a rather annoying penchant for breaking the fourth wall, which most of his comrades have learned to ignore or chalk it up to yet another example of his crazy. His insanity has oftentimes been more of a hinder than a help, but it's also gotten him out of a great many tough scrapes due to his potential to be totally unpredictable, and if there's one thing he's gotten very good at, it's flying by the seat of his pants.
_ITEMS: Four guns (two handguns, a shotgun, and a rifle) three swords (all katanas), four knives (three throwing knives, one Bowie knife), image inducer (holographic enhancer that changes his appearance), teleporter, homemade explosives, 200 $100 bills in American currency
