Wade Wilson

Deadpool, nicknamed the "Merc with a Mouth," is known for his sarcastic humor and talkative nature. He is unstable due to his healing power and displays potential mental disorders. Despite his instability, Deadpool has a strong moral code and a desire to help those in need. He has a weakness for kittens. Wade Wilson was experiemented on by Weapon X after receiving a cancer diagnosis. Powers: Regenerative Healing Factor, Enhanced Strength, stamina, speed. Abilities: Expert Marksman,Weapons Expert.(Personality Type: ENTP - 7w8 - sx/sp - 748 - ILE - SLUEI - VLEF - Sanguine [Dominant] - EN(T)) Wade had conflicting memories of his childhood. He once recalled that his father abandoned his mother while she was pregnant with him and she took out her anger on him until, as an adult, he beat her instead.[45] He later recalled that his mother died when he was five and that his father, an army officer, became abusive,[46] causing Wade to grow up to be a thug and criminal. When his father got his act together and tried to rein in his son, one of Wade's friends shot and killed him.[47] However, he told a writer that his father was a teller of bad jokes who abandoned him and his mother while he was a boy. His mother turned to humor, alcohol and home shopping networks as a coping mechanism. He believed that he ran away from home so that his mother wouldn't need to spend what little money she had left on him.[48]However, it was eventually revealed that his parents were still together, living in Canada and had kept Wade's room as he had left it but Wade himself did not recognize the house, his parents or his room when he returned there as an adult.[49] After leaving home, he appears to have joined the U.S. Army Special Forces but despite his superior skills, he was drummed out for not following orders that conflicted with his moral code. After a failed suicide attempt just before his nineteenth birthday, Wade was invited to join a clandestine group of CIA-sponsored mercenary assassins thanks to his military record, assured that his targets would all deserve death.[50] Little is known of Wilson's subsequent activities with this group. 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 crime lord, 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.[26] In America, Wade met and fell in love with mutant teenage prostitute Vanessa Carlysle, 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. Upon arrival to the Zaire base where she was stationed, he killed everyone except for Al who had fled. Those who put the contract out on Al sought vengeance for his failure by targeting Vanessa, who was rescued by Zoe Culloden, an employee of the inter-dimensional 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 developed 34 inoperable cancerous tumors, 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.[51]Back 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. Shortly thereafter, his healing factor began to destabilise, bringing his cancer back from remission and causing deformities in his flesh. 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 Worm 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 jump started his healing factor, regenerating his heart, although not curing his scarred body. Wilson then escaped the now-empty room and attacked the guards, making his way to Ajax. Wilson shot him in the chest with two automatic rifles, leaving him for dead. Taking the name Deadpool, he escaped from the Hospice with his fellow patients.At some point during this period, Deadpool tried to join the Heroes for Hire, and accompanied them on a mission to protect a bodega from Midtown Manhattan from a mob boss. During the mission, Carmelita Camacho, the daughter of the bodega's owner, thought that they were about to die and had sex with him.[60] Unbeknown to Deadpool, Carmelita had been impregnated, and she raised the kid, Eleanor Camacho, alone.[61] The Butler As a result of being cured of cancer, Deadpool caught the attention of a former Department K member Butler, whose sister also had the disease and was being kept in stasis until a cure could be found. The Butler contacted Deadpool, who would provide tissues and blood samples "for the orphans."[62][49] The Butler would sometimes need Wade on-site for longer stretches, for which Deadpool sometimes used to be kept sedated under simulations, explaining why Wade's memory would malfunction in the future.[62] During that time, the Butler also used mind-wipe drugs to manipulate Deadpool into doing his bidding. To test how far could he push Deadpool, the Butler sent Wilson to kill his parents.[49] Wade ultimately grew tired of Butler's experiments, and quit the program. However, over the next years, the Butler would periodically assault Deadpool during his sleep, or after drugging him, to keep collecting samples for his work.[62] As an "insurance policy" to Deadpool's desertion, the Butler kidnapped Carmelita and Eleanor, sending the latter to live with his brother while Carmelita was sent to North Korea.[63] The Best There Is After defeating the intergalactic mercenary, Macho Gomez, Deadpool went on a space odyssey where he saved two civilizations (the Urrulians, and the remains of the Ongulians) and killed Id, the Selfish Moon of Ego. After coming back to Earth, he fought the vengeful Blind Al, Weasel, Taskmaster, Big Bertha, and Sluggo, under the leadership of Macho. After a drawn out fight and killing Sluggo, Wade paused and asked his so-thought friends "Is this what you want?!" After which they proceeded to shoot him until he lost consciousness. Thanks to his healing factor, Deadpool recovered. After talking with Bob about how he treats his friends, Wade realized what he truly wanted was to die.[115]After unsuccessfully committing suicide, surviving atomic bombs, and battling the Hulk, Wade was sent to the English prison of Crossmore, where he met doctor Ellen Whitby, who had been secretly obsessed with him for several years. Out of a one-sided love, she helped him escape. Despite this, Wade rejected her for her creepy infatuation with him. After leaving he encountered the local law enforcement which inadvertently led to Wade taking the Queen of England hostage. After having a talk with the Queen, she convinced Deadpool that Whitby was his responsibility. After going to her apartment, he found many of his own severed body parts in the fridge. After confronting Whitby she killed herself, and Wade threw the frozen body parts in a dumpster and left. Later, Deadpool was abducted to North Korea by the Butler.[128] The Butler revealed to Wade their shared past, and also that he had taken Deadpool's lost daughter, Eleanor, prisoner after Wade quit his program.[62] With the help of Preston's consciousness, Captain America, and Wolverine, Deadpool managed to free all the prisoners from the North Korean camp, as he also killed the Butler. Although his daughter could be alive, Deadpool decided not to try to reach her, in order to prevent himself from ruining her life.[62]Shortly after placing Preston's consciousness into a LMD modeled after her, Deadpool was hired by Dracula to deliver his future bride to him while fighting various demonic creatures.[129] This bride was Shiklah, the evil queen of the undead. Though the two fought, they eventually got engaged, effectively stealing Dracula's bride, and later married.[130][131] Shortly afterwards, Deadpool managed to track down and reunite with his lost daughter Ellie Camacho.[132] Deadpool is very comedic, although this appears to be caused in part by his mental illness. He is quick to act without thinking and is very impulsive. Deadpool used to present a morally grey personality, with no problem of disregarding other people. However, as an after effect of the inversion spell, Wade regained his conscience, to the point of even feeling bad for somebody being verbally abused.[139] Deadpool has friends, such as Weasel and Blind Al, that he was loyal to and cared about. Due to his variety of mental problems, he would mistreat them at times, such as stabbing Weasel in the leg over the last Cheesy Puff or confining Blind Al in a room filled with sharp objects.[179][180] Deadpool commonly develops obsessions with words and people, repeatedly mentioning the words duodenum and chimichanga, the phrase "Sphincter says what?", and is frequently preoccupied by thoughts of Bea Arthur and the Olsen Twins.[181][182]Powers Genetically Enhanced Physiology: Deadpool's powers come from the experimentation he was submitted to by the Weapon X program. Healing Factor: Deadpool possesses a superhuman healing factor derived from that of the mutant Wolverine which allows him to regenerate damaged or destroyed bodily tissue with far greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human.[27] His head or any other limb can be reattached using this ability.[183] While beheaded, Deadpool can still move his body normally.[184] In small doses, Deadpool's blood has demonstrated the ability to heal others[185] and extend their lifespans beyond their natural limits.[186] When combined with Star Cells injected intravenously, it confers immortality.[187] Foreign Chemical Resistance: Deadpool's body is highly resistant to poisons and most drugs.[27] For example, it is extremely difficult, though not impossible, for him to become intoxicated (Blind Al made several references to Deadpool being hung-over since he once drunkenly spoke to the Teletubbies on the TV he was watching). He can, momentarily, be affected by certain drugs (tranquilizers) if exposed to a large enough dosage. Disease Immunity: The unique regenerative qualities of Deadpool's healing factor also extend to his immune system; he is immune to all diseases, infections, disorders, imperfection, and resistant to elemental extremes.[27] Immortality: Deadpool's healing factor provides him with an endless lifespan by halting the aging process. His life span is extended to such a degree that an alternate reality version of him was alive and still in business as Deadpool 800 years in the future.[188] He was also cursed with immortality by T-Ray on behalf of Thanos, in order to keep him away from Death.[189] Telepathic Immunity: The healing factor causes his brain to be in a constant state of flux and regeneration, rendering him immune to psychics such as Cable, Emma Frost, and the Red Onslaught.[190][191] Deadpool can be looped into a telepathic psi-link to communicate with others mentally, as he did while a member of X-Force, but actually reading his mind can be confusing, even to an accomplished telepath like Psylocke.[192] This would not prevent him from being attacked psychically though. Possession Resistance: Similar to the telepathic immunity, Deadpool is able to remain in control of himself while supernatural beings are trying to take control of him. During Xaphan's attempt to take control of him, Wade was able to fight for control of his body. No one can touch his soul.[193] Superhuman Strength: Deadpool is rated as having a low degree of superhuman strength allowing him to lift 800 pounds.[27] Peak Human Speed: Deadpool can run as fast as a trained athlete.[27] 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 several days before fatigue takes over. Superhuman Agility: Deadpool's agility, flexibility, dexterity, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. Superhuman Reflexes: His reflexes are far superior to those of even the finest human athlete. His auto-reflexes allow him to easily dodge gunfire and attacks even when not consciously aware of them. Superhuman Durability: Deadpool's bone and muscle tissues are augmented to levels that are considerably stronger and harder than human and the tissues are impervious to injury to an extraordinary extent. He possesses golden-proportioned body, and even without training his muscles are brawny and his body shape doesn't change no matter how many calories he intakes. Abilities Master Martial Artist: Deadpool is an extraordinary martial artist, hand-to-hand combatant, and is a master in multiple unarmed combat techniques, including Savate.[194] He has been shown fighting such amazingly skilled fighters as Wolverine and Taskmaster and even defeating them in hand to hand combat.[28] This shows that Deadpool himself is among one of the most skilled fighters in the Marvel universe, although in some fights it has been attributed to him being unpredictable. Master Assassin: He is a master of assassination techniques, espionage methods, covert operations, infiltration methods, escape artistry, marksmanship, and is highly skilled with many bladed weapons (frequently carrying two swords strapped to his back) and a number of other weapons including firearms. Multilingual: In addition to English, Wade is fluent in Esperanto,[195] German,[196] Japanese,[26] and Spanish.[27]Medium Awareness: After accidentally being transported to the Foundations of Eternity by the Beyonder,[197] Deadpool became consciously aware that he is a fictional comic book character - though he noted he had always known subconsciously - allowing him to break the fourth wall. Wade doesn't possess this ability at all times due to the constant changes in his brain. References to the fourth wall made by those with similar abilities to him can trigger his medium awareness.[198] Unpredictability: It is difficult for anyone to know what Deadpool will do at any given moment, given that he himself barely knows what he'll do at any given moment. This makes it difficult for most opponents to predict what he will do. Taskmaster, whose abilities allowed him to analyze and copy the mercenary's fighting style, once believed Deadpool always dodged to the left. Deadpool proved him wrong, however, by completely changing his fighting style on a whim, throwing off Taskmaster's abilities.[199] Weaknesses Mental State: His healing abilities render his brain unreadable to telepaths, but its constant healing also makes him highly unstable and prone to violent outbursts without the slightest provocation, at least against those he knows could handle. Even with his healing factor, Deadpool can still feel pain from damage taken, although he has a notably high pain tolerance. While it has been shown that Deadpool's condition may not be the source of his instability, it only makes it worse. In several flashbacks to his childhood, he has shown signs of instability.[200][201] Annoyance: Wade's incessant talking has also proven to make him a very irritating person to be around. Many heroes often find themselves at wits' end around him; this makes for poor ability to cooperate with him in team efforts. Domino once said that Deadpool's most lethal weapon is his mouth. He will blabber nonsense during the whole fight, distracting and maiming the opponent until the latter "surrenders or commits suicide."[202] Cure for Cancer: Wade's healing factor was specifically designed to replace his bodies cells as fast as they were being destroyed by his illness. Should his cancer be cured then his healing factor would be rapidly producing redundant new cells, which, if left unchecked, would cause horrible growths over the body and would eventually explode, as demonstrated on the Super Skrulls with Deadpool's powers.[203] Phobias: Deadpool has bovinophobia, which is the fear of cows. According to him, cows "scare the *#$% outta me", as he believes their stare to be chilling, like they're "waiting".[204] He may also be scared of chickens, like Domino. This may also have been an attempt to find common ground with her, as he was later able to put one in her path to stop her.[204] During Deadpool's adventure to save the multiverse from the Awareness, it was revealed that his worst fear is to be truly and utterly alone.[205]Weapons Deadpool's Katanas: Wilson wields a pair of steel katanas. He is able to charge his katanas with an energy field through his suit, increasing the durability of his swords and increasing their cutting power to the point that they can easily cut through objects as hard as diamond.[92] Other Weapons: Deadpool employs any number of weapons depending on his current assignments. Most often, Deadpool uses multiple types of guns, grenades, swords, sai, and knives. He has also been known to use more exotic weapons such as concussive grenades, taser wires, constricting bolas, etc.[64][214] Speech Bubble Deadpool's speech and thought balloons and captions are usually colored yellow, to represent his distinctive voice (although nobody knows exactly what is distinctive about his voice, only that it sounds different). Cable of Earth-5701 has described his voice as having a "gravelly, Demi Moore" quality before "killing" him,[215] and later as being a "ridiculous, hollow Demi Moore rumble".[216] Blind Al has also stated that Deadpool's voice sounds like a distinct mixture of "gasoline and gravel."[180] In his earliest appearances, his speech balloons were normal balloons with red borders (soon changed to yellow borders); in later appearances, the interior was colored yellow and the text was written in a slightly mangled font.[74] Deadpool's white caption box introduced in Deadpool (Vol. 2) was later revealed to be Madcap, who had fused with the mercenary on a molecular level after an accident. Under similar circumstances to their fusion, they were later separated.[101] Deadpool's yellow speech bubble has been shown to malfunction, resulting in all other characters hearing it.[93]Deadpool often claims to be a mutant and an X-Man, which causes more or less violent reactions from actual mutants and X-Men. He first claimed to have a "mutant healing factor" in Wolverine (Vol. 2) #88, which could arguably be seen as true since his healing factor was derived from Wolverine's mutant ability. Later, the X-Men dressed him up in an X-Costume as a gag in Cable & Deadpool #8, prompting Deadpool to occasionally fixate on becoming a full member of the team. Often times he claims to be both a mutant and an X-Man, only to be corrected by someone nearby.[217][29][218][125] As Deadpool has become more accepted by the X-Men and the mutant community, they have been less insistent on correcting his claims.[219] When House of M Nathaniel Essex tried to drug him, he stated that Deadpool was a mutant due to resisting the drug, but Wade himself denied being one.[217] A computer used by Rocket Raccoon identified Wade as a mutant.[220] The 2016 film Deadpool depicts him as a mutant with an initially-dormant healing factor. The mutant nation of Krakoa does not recognize Deadpool as a mutant.[221] Deadpool's name is Wade Wilson, as that's the name he used to sign up with the army.[222] To his own satisfaction, Deadpool discredited T-Ray's claims to be the "real" Wade Wilson after Cable improved his mental stability and Wade poked several holes in T-Ray's version of events.[95] However, due to both T-Ray and Deadpool being mentally unstable, neither's word can actually be fully trusted. In Deadpool's words, "It depends on which writer you liked best."[223] Despite being an assassin, Wade is unwilling to kill children.[224][225] He has only once murdered a baby, Threnody's monstrous baby, when defending Weasel's pregnant wife Clarice.[226]Despite the common belief that Deadpool was inspired by DC Comics character Deathstroke (namely due to the similar designs and civilian names, with Deathstroke's real name being Slade Wilson), Rob Liefeld has always maintained that the similarities are coincidental, though several Deadpool's comics - such as Deadpool (Vol. 6) #7 and Black Panther vs. Deadpool #5 - have referenced and perpetuated the misconception. It is worth mentioning that Liefeld has been very vocal about the actual inspirations for the character, which include Spider-Man, Wolverine, Star Wars' Boba Fett, and even the 1988 comedy film Twins. It was Fabian Nicieza who came up with Deadpool's civilian name, after recognizing the coincidental undertones of Deathstroke in Deadpool's look since Liefeld was a fan of Deathstroke. Nicieza called Deadpool "Wade Wilson" as as an in-joke between Liefeld and himself.[227][228] Twins influenced Liefeld in the creation of Deadpool due to its plot. In this movie, the title characters portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito originated from an experiment to combine the DNA of six fathers to produce the perfect child, with Schwarzenegger's character carrying all good traits, while DeVito's was stuck with the leftovers and became a low-life. Liefeld originally envisioned Deadpool as Wolverine's predecessor in Weapon X, which would've resulted in him being less refined than Logan. Because of this, Deadpool would've had a similar relation with Wolverine as DeVito's character with Schwarzenegger's.[229] The inspiration for Deadpool's name comes from the 1988 Dirty Harry film The Dead Pool.[230] The creation of Deadpool as a masked character originated from the friendly jabs of Liefeld's friends Todd McFarlane and Erik Larsen, who at the time worked penciling Spider-Man comics. They used to make fun of Liefeld having to work hard on drawing the faces of each member of the cast of New Mutants, while drawing Spider-Man's face was much easier due to him wearing a mask. Because of this, Liefeld was inspired to create a character that wore a "cool mask."[228] Deadpool's obsession with the word "chimichanga" originated from an in-joke between Deadpool's co-creator Fabian Nicieza and the late Mark Gruenwald based on a Saturday Night Live skit.[231] The X-Man Gambit has such respect for Deadpool's fighting abilities that he once paid him off rather than risk battling him, admitting that fighting Deadpool is tantamount to suicide.[232] Many people confuse Deadpool and Spider-Man due to the similarities between their costumes. Deadpool himself is aware of the similarities.[233] People unfamiliar with Deadpool have called him "ninja Spider-Man."[11] Deadpool has stated that, due to his mask and disfigured face, it is hard for him to enter public places, including Taco Bell.[10] Wade is bad at shaving, considering that he hasn't had facial hair to shave for a long time.[234] Deadpool's childhood hero is Captain America, although their views differed.[235] Deadpool has called the Young Avengers (especially Hulkling and Wiccan) nubile.[29] Wade claimed to have hacked Wolverine's Tumblr account.[236]Elektra stated Deadpool has lovely handwriting, to which he replied "Thank you, Elektra. I think it's a crime the way schools today neglect the fundamentals."[237] Deadpool claims to have seen "every Jackie Chan movie and Hi-Karate commercial ever made".[217] Deadpool writer Gerry Duggan has stated that Deadpool is "ready and willing to do anything with a pulse."[238] He has further confirmed Deadpool to be omnisexual (a sexual orientation more commonly known as pansexual).[239] Deadpool uses Snapchat.[240] Deadpool uses Twitter.[241] Deadpool uses Instagram.[242] Deadpool is a Scorpio, placing his birthday between October 23 and November 21.[243] Deadpool hates the band Creed.[244] The canonicity of Deadpool bonding to the Venom symbiote in Deadpool's Secret Secret Wars and Deadpool: Back in Black was contested. Writer Cullen Bunn had repeatedly stated he considered it to be canon and had included references to it in Poison-X and Deadpool: Assassin #4. X-Men Senior Editor Jordan D. White also considered it to be canon, stating it to be the reason Deadpool admired and sought to befriend Spider-Man. However, Donny Cates, the writer of Venom (Vol. 4), had, in a since deleted tweet said that he did not consider them to be canon, and as such it was disregarded in Absolute Carnage - with Absolute Carnage vs. Deadpool #1 stating the writers were deliberately ignoring it. When Kate Bishop first saw Deadpool's face, she thought that Wade was wearing Freddy Krueger make-up, since it was Halloween.[245] Deadpool is a fan of Doctor Doom and Morgan Le Fay as a romantic pairing. In fact, he considers them his "otp."[246] Robbie Thompson, the writer of Spider-Man/Deadpool, wanted Deadpool to learn Spider-Man's secret identity; however, Marvel Comics would not allow that. So in the last story arc of the series, Thompson created an "Event", with himself as the main villain Manipulator, in order for Marvel to allow Deadpool to learn Spider-Man's identity. In the end that didn't happen, as Spider-Man and Deadpool put the Manipulator in jail.[247] Deadpool once prevented a girl from commiting suicide, and passed some time together in order for her to feel better before leaving her at a hospital and advising her to seek professional help.[248] Deadpool has tried to commit suicide multiple times in different ways, with most of these attempts failing.[249][250][251][252][253][254] When Typhoid Mary disguised herself as Siryn, she raped Deadpool, using his affection for Siryn to have sex with him, which left him emotionally destroyed.[255][256] Deadpool is a fan of Star Trek[257] and the original Star Wars trilogy but hates the prequel trilogy with a passion. When an agent of A.I.M. expressed love for the prequel trilogy, Deadpool killed him and forced another A.I.M. agent to say that "Jar Jar Binks is an abomination."[258] As of Deadpool Kills Deadpool #4, Wade is allegedly the last remaining Deadpool alive in the Multiverse. Deadpool hates Anime.[163]
