Why he’s in Sokovia:
After being found in the Nevada desert, Logan was taken to a secret base in Canada where they worked free him from his Adamantium casing. He escaped and was a wanted man until ran into Steve Rogers by chance. He’s been in Sokovia in hiding ever since. He never did find out who exactly freed him.
Did he sign?
No. He’s been controlled for a very long time by different people throughout his lifetime, signing the accords, to him, is like taking 50 steps back instead of taking 50 steps forward.
Headcanons:
While he still has his healing ability, it is very weak and is often found struggling just to heal from basic injuries. A part of him wishes that he wasn’t saved from the desert because he is in so much pain.
Without his healing ability at its fullest, Logan has regained a lot of his past memories, though they aren’t without a challenge to process them, he remembers Stryker and his attack on Xavier’s Institute for example.
Wishes to leave Sokovia but he knows that his body and mind has some healing to do before then.
Wanted connections:
Jean Grey, Kitty Pryde, Scott Summers, Nightcrawler, Storm, any member of the X-Men who he once knew and worked with.
Steve Rogers, the only person he trusts at the moment.
Victor Creed, aka Sabretooth is a long time enemy for Logan, perhaps they can come to an uneasy peace eventually. They are also half-brothers.
X-23, aka Laura Kinney, his daughter. He has a lot to tell her, a lot of training to do with her. She is his number one priority to find outside Sokovia.
Wanted character arc/long term plot:
It would be great to explore how and who found Logan out in the Nevada desert, who brought him back to life? Who removed the casing? What did they want him for? All questions that Logan needs answering to bring him peace
Bio:
(tw: Death, I used The Death of Wolverine comics rather than the movie Logan)
A virus caused Logan’s healing ability to finally burn out, making him a wanted man to many of his enemies. They wanted his head on a spike. Despite numerous offers to reactivate his healing ability, Logan denied them, he said no and that he had to learn how to live this way.
That was until he found that he had a bounty on his head, he set out to find out who exactly put it there, what did they want? Eventually, this leads him to the founder of Weapon X, who was attempting to replicate what they had done to Logan but he is unable to finish his work after finding out that there is now no healing factor to copy. Enraged by this, Abraham sets his latest experiment on Logan who he then defeated, in a desperate attempt to escape, the adamantium bonding process began but Logan slashed the container, causing the container to shatter and cover him in the metal.
This causes him to suffocate as the adamantium hardens up.
Many months passed and he’s found outside the now abandoned base. The mystery figure transported Logan to Canada to begin a long experiment to free him of the casing, the news of Wolverine’s death sends shock-waves throughout the people in his life, his DNA is destroyed in a bid to make sure that no one can ever clone him again.
Logan doesn’t remember much after the the Nevada desert, he doesn’t know who saved him, who experimented on him and how he escaped, did someone help him escape? All he knows is that the bounty on his head remains and the world has gone to shit. In Sokovia, he remains there to heal, to reflect and more importantly, to plot revenge.
