Something that might be a thing…
So some background information…
I, along with the lovely @silversablinovaallday, love to do a few Roleplays with one another to forget the world is burning. Despite her being Canadian, we get along well and make fun stories!
But if I have to hear another thing about the Canadian McDonald’s that is Tim Hortons-
Anyways I have a good old headcannon that Yuri was “Wraith” as a teen, spending nights fighting the local triad gangs in Chinatown. Some info on that….
She had/has no superpowers
Her suit was homemade from one of those sick motorbike suits she found at a thrift store.
Her mother taught her how to fight, mostly defense, which she excels at, but had learned most of her offense styles from fighting gang members.
Her main choice of weapon was honestly whatever was long and strong enough to act as a staff or whatever was small enough to throw.
She was trained in sword combat, but does not use it because she did not want to be a killer.
Left yellow ribbons at the scene of the crime she stopped/prevented
Was given the name “Wraith” in the English translation and among the local police department. She was mostly called “幻象” meaning ghost, illusion or phantom.
She was discovered by Captain Stacy, who was actually the only positive father figure she had in her life, who convinced her to do more with her life then run around as a vigilante.
She left for the Marines soon after she was discovered, leaving wraith behind as an urban legend.
So building on that! The S.H.EI.L.D AU takes place shortly after her time serving in the U.S Marines. Another bit of information…
Yuri broke her no killing rule during and after she was forced to shoot a member of her unit, and someone she considered a close friend, when he sold out the unit to the enemy causing the deaths of three other members.
Yuri was a medic, she wanted nothing to do with killing out of a promise she made to herself. But she killed him to save the rest of her unit and left shortly after her tour ended.
So the AU picks up after this, normally this is the point where Yuri joins the police department, but instead of the usual timeline, Yuri is picked up by S.H.E.I.L.D in hopes of bringing “Wraith” back into action.
Yuri is hesitant at first, but after considering her options and realizing she’s already taken a life and can do greater things defending others globally, she agrees. She is then gifted a brand new suit and rebranded as Agent Watanabe, aka the “Wraith”.
Have some more ideas to go with it. Mostly with Peter starting out as Spiderman and Yuri training him, but that’ll probably come later. For now, this is what I got.
