Nathan Summers || Cable

Little is known about Cable's backstory, only fragments; such as that he was born into an apocalyptic future ravaged by war. At unknown points, he married and had a daughter, named Hope. Enhanced with bionic abilities, Cable became a newfound time traveler, two that would make him a formidable soldier. Later in life, he worked as some kind of bounty hunter tracking down violent mutants and criminals. One of the criminals he had frequently clashed with, named Firefist, eventually tracked down Cable's family and killed them. Cable wanted revenge, deciding to kill him in the past to stop the future where his family was murdered from occurring.

Cable uses his time-traveling device; in order to travel back in time to just after an incident that got Firefist sent to the Ice Box prison facility. That night, in a motel, Cable uses his eye's advanced scanning and holographic capabilities to scan his many weapons and pick out the perfect pieces needed to build a better gun, then showing skills of engineering as he is able to make a new futuristic rifle using parts which are outdated for his time.

Later, the next day, Cable breaches the Ice Box, where he finds Russell. He kills every single guard in the prison facility easily, but fails to kill Russell.

Cable for the most part is a soldier; steady, disciplined and focused on his mission. However, despite his very serious demeanor, he does possess a sense of humor as seen with his back and forth with Deadpool. The loss of his wife and his daughter, Hope Summers has made him willing to break certain morals for the greater good; such as killing Russell Collins as a child; in order to prevent the post-apocalyptic future that he will create as an adult. After watching Wade sacrifice himself to save Cable's timeline, Cable was deeply moved; by Wade's actions; instead of return to his timeline (which was now fixed; due to Wade' actions and child Russell seeing a mutant die to save him) Cable; instead opts to use the final charge on his time travel device to save Wade; instead saving both Wade and his timeline.

Much of Cable’s body, namely his left side, has been altered with cybernetics and bionics, due to his techno-organic virus, giving him his cyborg appearance along with a wide range of abilities. Cable's eye has advanced scanning and holographic capabilities. It was able to scan his many weapons and pick out the perfect pieces needed to build a better gun. The eye gives Cable vital information on his surroundings such as potential threats, location of items and seems to enhance his vision well beyond that of a normal human, including telescopic and spectrum lenses. Cable's bionics allow him to project a oval shaped force-field from his arms. While being shot at close range, Cable was able to withstand the bullets rippling against him with the force field. The shield was strong enough to take a full blast of fire from Firefist. Cable’s bionic body allows him to interact with machines and computer devices. Cable was able grab one of the electrical cables in the Ice Box, and hack into its systems to uncover the prisoner layout of the building. The information traveled through his arm into his eye, which displayed the information holographically. Cable has some telekinetic abilities as he used them to grab his gun from ten feet away.
