TEN THINGS YOU DIDNT KNOW

Okay so here's the deal. I'm bored, and want to write down some things I need to remember about my characters. But why post these where no one will see, I asked myself. So.

MEME!

RULES

1. Post with your character
2. Post ten things that you believe are true about your character - yes, go ahead and headcanon this right on up, I personally like that sort of thing.
3. observe others
4. relish information


It is very simple and fun for everyon's edification! Likewise we can learn more about new characters we have round these parts, and be happy.

MARROW

[identity profile] spinal-tapped.livejournal.com 2009-08-05 10:27 am (UTC)(link)
1. Her idol worship of Angel (later Archangel) is so encompassing that, even today, she sleeps with a handmade plush of Angel close by. The thing's been with her since she was a little girl.
2. Through willpower alone, she's gained slight control over her bone growths, able to affect a more 'visually pleasing' appearance.
3. She actually does like the home she has with the X-Men, but constantly does her damnedest to remain the black sheep of the 'family.'
4. Whatever her age is, Marrow is still a virgin. She's never even kissed anyone else.
5. Marrow has no idea whatsoever who her biological parents are/were. She has little memory to speak of before the Morlock tunnels, and considers Callisto her mother. If Callisto knows who her parents are/were, she isn't telling.
6. She really does think she could be pretty, but at the same time, feels it would betray all that she's fought for in her life.
7. Even before she started believing in Xavier's dream for human/mutant coexistence, Marrow hated Magneto and his 'mutants are superior' doctrine. Magneto, unlike the X-Men, never even once attempted to help the Morlocks, the most downtrodden of mutants.
8. She has a big-sister-complex that doesn't show often. It stems from the sense of family that the Morlocks had, before she was forced into a life of 'kill-or-be-killed.'
9. She has a very mild case of hemophilia, or maybe more like hematophagy.
10. One thing Marrow takes great pride in is her hair. She specifically focused on keeping bones from growing through her scalp to allow her hair to grow fully, and keeps it well-maintained. Even when she wore it in dreadlocks, they were properly cleaned.
