Sabretooth

Sabretooth's memories have been tampered with by clandestine organizations such as Weapon X, and so much of what appears to be his past is not of credible account. His strongest and earliest memories involve being cruelly abused on numerous occasions by his father while being tied up in his parents' basement. Another memory of Victor's childhood was when his mutation first manifested, he killed his pediatrician at age 9 (Uncanny X-Men 1st series #326). Another memory involves Wolverine, whom at the time lived in a small community of Blackfoot Indians and settlers. One day, Sabretooth tracked him down in Canada, and he raped and seemingly murdered his lover, Silver Fox on Logan's birthday. This resulted in the first of many battles between the two, with Sabretooth savagely beating Logan. Creed eventually adopted a tradition of tracking Logan down on his birthday with the intention of fighting him.

Eventually emerging as a costumed villain, Sabretooth became partners with the Constrictor and the two acted as enforcers for major criminal interests. During this time, Creed began to stalk and kill human beings for pleasure. This earned him the newspaper title of "The Slasher." The Constrictor and Sabretooth eventually dissolved their partnership, and Sabretooth nearly killed the Constrictor at one time.

Powers and Abilities Sabretooth is a mutant with many natural powers that have been enhanced by Weapon X and other groups. He has very similar powers to that of Wolverine. Like Wolverine, Sabretooth’s primary ability is an accelerated healing factor, which can heal destroyed flesh and organs and broken bones in a matter of minutes. His healing also radically slows his aging process. Sabretooth’s age is unknown but Wild Child presented information to Wolverine, on behalf of Romulus, that they had both fought in the coliseums in the time of the Roman Gladiators. His healing factor also makes Sabretooth immune to all toxins and drugs, gives him superhuman stamina, and lets him push his body well beyond human limits.

Creed also possesses enhanced senses of hearing, sight, taste, smell. He can see objects much clearer and at much greater distance that normal humans, and can see in complete darkness like cats can. His sense of smell is enhanced enough that he is able to track people by their scent, even if it has been decayed by time or masked by other factors. Sabretooth's hearing is sensitive enough that he can hear almost anything from up to three miles away, depending on the level of noise in the area.

Sabretooth's physical strength far surpasses that of a normal human, as his healing factor instantly repairs muscle tears and negates the buildup of lactic acid which causes muscle fatigue. The upper limits of his strength have never been confirmed, and It is unclear how many times his strength has been increased by Weapon X and other groups.

Sabretooth has three inch claws in place of his finger and toenails, which are extendable in a manner similar to Lady Deathstrike's. He also possesses animal-like fangs which, like his claws, are made of a substance stronger than human bone, though whether this is simply an effect of his bones' extreme durability is unclear.

With his bones laced in Adamantium, Sabretooth's healing factor is markedly decreased in its effectiveness, though his skeleton, fangs, and claws are essentially unbreakable.

Sabretooth's natural ferocity and lust for violence have been augmented over the years by training at the hands of the CIA, Weapon X, the Hand, and other organizations. Despite his brutish appearance, Creed is quite intelligent on a tactical and strategic level. He was rendered immune to telepathic manipulation after an incident when Wolverine punctured his frontal lobe.
