Daken is a fictional character, a mutant in the Marvel Comics Universe.

Fictional character biography[edit]

Daken is the son of Wolverine and Itsu, a woman Wolverine loved before being forcefully inducted into the Weapon X Program. However Itsu, while in the last stages of her pregnancy, is murdered by Winter Soldier in an attempt to draw Wolverine out. Later a mysterious man wearing a hat and trenchcoat that concel his features cuts the baby (Daken) from his mother's womb and leaves her body lying on the floor. However Daken is, many years later, revealed to have survived the horrible incident due to inheriting his father's healing factor. As a grown man, Daken has shown himself, thus far, to be a heartless killer and genuinely hates his father. Exactly why he feels this way is unknown at this time.

Daken's motives are also unclear at this time. He does break Wolverine out of a high security S.H.I.E.L.D. facility, but not before slicing open his stomach and leaving him to bleed on the floor. Daken is next seen at the home of a young woman he has been seeing romantically. Daken, as it turns out, has been purposely doing things that he knows she will hear about, such as having sexual relationships, or at least making it appear that he's having sexual relationships, with other women as well as men. He spikes a bottle of scotch with poison beforehand, knowing that she will consume the entire bottle. After she confronts him, he explains all of this to her before she dies from the poison.

Powers and abilities[edit]

Little has been revealed about Daken's mutant abilities. However, he does possess three retractable claws within each forearm similar to his father. However, unlike Wolverine's claws, two of Daken's claws extend between his knuckles while the third extends from the underside of his wrists. The composition of the claws is unknown at this time, other than that they are black and rough in texture.

Daken also possesses an accelerated healing factor that allows him to recover from injuries with much greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. However, the full extent of Daken's healing powers is unknown at this time.

He has also demonstrated an uncanny ability to completely conceal his scent, even from the heightened olfactory senses of his father, Logan.

It remains to be seen if Daken has any other superhuman abilities apart from his claws and healing factor.
