Doreen Green

Real Name: Doreen Green

Alias: (The Unbeatable) Squirrel Girl

Identity: Secret

Age: Early Twenties

Species: Human Mutate


Physical Appearance:

At 5’3 and 135lbs, Doreen is a little shorter than average, she got cheated out of that last inch and given a 3 foot long (and ever so bushy) tail as compensation. Sporting a quaffed tomboy bob in a delightful shade of auburn with eyes like darkened honey. Classically attractive, her figure is only enhanced when she is hiding her tail, described in her own words as “Having a conspicuously awesome butt!”. Among her normal clothing and accessories the item that gets worn the most would be her squirrel ear headbands.


Personality:

Smart, and carrying an almost alarming amount of self assuredness, but with a tendency to talk a little bit too much. Very little gets on top of her, and nothing is an insurmountable ordeal. Though she’s not one to brag, she’s not exactly humble either.
A strong pep and heavy can do attitude are what carry her forward through life, and she’s not about to start lowering her expectations, shoot for the moon, and when you get there… go for the stars!


Powers:

As a mutate she has been gifted with certain Super-human abilities, including but not limited to;

Superhuman Strength and Endurance:
    With the capability of lifting several tons and able to exert herself for continued amounts of times without getting overly run down.

Nimbleness and Reflexes (Squirrelgility):
    Gifted with similar proportional speed to a squirrel, her reflexes are well beyond normal, instinctive, but not precognitive. Because of this she is a gifted scrapper, and can defeat the likes of Wolverine in a ‘no claws’ showdown. And has been shown to be able to launch herself several stories into the air from a standing start.

Sharp Mind and Enhanced Senses:
    As she shares a common blood with a herbivorous species her mind is keen to spot threats but also to solve problems in unexpected ways.
She has greater than normal visual acuity in low light conditions, and an enhanced sense of smell.

Knuckle Spikes and Claws:
    Another gift of her shared blood, having retractable claws on each finger and toe that enhance her ability to climb and retracting spikes in her knuckles that can carve through solid wood with relative ease.

Prehensile Tail:
    It’s bushy, it’s warm, and its exceptionally useful. Be it blinding opponent’s eyes or enveloping herself in the cold, the limit to its usefulness is only her imagination. Though unfortunately she lacks the necessary strength and speed to spin it fast enough to fly.

Healing Factor:
    While not on par with the likes of Wolverine or Sabertooth, she does enjoy a relatively increased rate of healing, similar to that of Spiderman or Feral.


Abilities:

“Squirrelese”:
    The name kinda says it all, fluent in squirrel in its many different forms.

Computing:
    While not a computer genius, she is more capable than most when it comes to working technology.
Currently Majoring in Computer Science at Empire State U.

Maternal Instinct:
    She can get a bit woobly when it comes to children, but then again, who doesn’t.
The Former Nanny to Danielle Cage.

Hazelnut Kisses:
    Her lips taste like Hazelnuts…

Four Dimensional:
    While not directly able to recognize the fourth wall, the squirrels who assist her can, often giving out of universe information to aid her.


Weapons/Equipment:

Utility Belt:
    Your standard issue hero kit, full of all the essentials:-

    ‘Deadpool’s Guide to Super Villains’ and Accessory pack.
        6144 handy dandy trading cards penned by the merc with a mouth himself!

    Snackages!
        Her 'Nut Sacks' contain enough for her and her friends!

Squirrels:
    Perhaps her greatest and deadliest weapons, bringing ruination upon many a foe who dare to underestimate the ferocity of the humble squirrel. Fear them, for they are legion!

   -Tippy-Toe
        Doreen’s closest companion and ally, a female melanistic fox squirrel gifted with a pink ribbon, Sardonic, Sarcastic and at time, ruthlessly Glib, she is well matched as a partner in crime.    
        She doesn’t appreciate being discounted as useless, but doesn’t mind playing the fool.
        Has the ability to use devices and tools that no squirrel has any business using. Almost destroying Mr. Immortal’s blender in the continual quest of the creation of acorn smoothies!.


History:

Doreen hails from humble beginnings. The daughter of Dorian and Maureen Green, her genome was modified for reasons unknown to contain gene chains belonging to squirrels. For the longest time believing that she was a mutant, until being informed by a leading geneticist, categorically, that this was not so.
At the cusp of her teenage years she learned that she had the ability to talk to squirrels, listening to one of these ‘rodents’ talking beside her window, who she would go on to befriend and save from a vicious canine.
Monkey Joe, as he came to be called, encouraged Doreen to pursue a life aligned to helping people, and in many ways guided her to the woman she would become.

A few years later, she hoped to gain some recognition from none other than Iron Man himself, springing an ambuscade upon the unsuspecting hero, only to have one sprung on herself in turn by the venerable do-badder Mr Grim Mask (Dr Doom), who after subduing his ancient adversary, dismissed her as little more than a girl.
This would prove to be his undoing as she rallied hundreds of her kin to rend Doom's suit and equipment alike, chewing through the cables and hurling themselves en’mass at the flailing villain.
Her next great encounter would be with the Hulk, who, in what was little more than cosmic coincidence, landed beside her treehouse during an altercation with the Abomination.
Blinded, he reluctantly accepted her assistance, once again, using a swarm of squirrels to overwhelm her foe, only this time coaching Hulk on how to dodge, duck, dip, dive and SMASH!

Though she had assisted to high profile members of the avengers, she remained under the radar, and relocated NYC where she would have a chance encounter with the Great Lakes Avengers, saving them from a particularly nasty group of muggers.
Being recruited to the GLA she would enjoy her first taste of being ‘mainstream’ heroing, and endure a crushing reminder of their mortality.
Ever the activist she fought to make sure that her companion, Monkey Joe, was a fully fledged member of the team. A team that would stop Maelstrom from destroying the world, but sadly during this event, Monkey Joe was murdered in cold blood by a rejected GLA hopeful in the guise of Dr. Doom. Meeting her new companion, Tippy Toe, she gave thought to calling her Monkey Joe 2, but eventually decided against it.
As time went past, Doreen enjoyed a healthy amount of success, felling foes that other heroes failed to, eventually being offered a position at SHIELD, which she declined.

After the Superhero Registration law was enforced her group was, wrongly, attacked by Deadpool who believed them to be unregistered, this didn’t end so well for the chatty contractor, as his inability to see past her costume and name made him unable to mount a sufficient counter to her attacks. Though they would work together later, this event was hardly the greatest of first impressions.
After some time she eventually decided to go solo, and returned to NYC, (after moving away with the GLA to Wisconsin), Moving in to the Avengers Mansion as the nanny to Danielle Cage, she would see the child safe through a multitude of events, ultimately following Luke Cage and Jessica Jones when the left.

Once again setting out on her own, she enrolled in Empire State University, where she encountered Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boi, who had similar powers to her own, although no Chipmunks and Koi respectively. During her first year she found herself fighting Kraven, Stealing Iron man’s armour and even convincing galactus not to destroy the earth, and the second didn’t get any less interesting. Eventually being ‘accidentally’ deported from her reality by a fellow student who wished to alter the grade curve.


Weaknesses:

Accelerated Metabolic rate:
    She has a elevated metabolism which requires her to snack more, however this also allows her to keep her figure while doing so.

Needs of the many:
    She often will leave herself vulnerable when there are bystanders around, even going as far to leave blatant openings in a mixture of absent mindedness and a subconscious to protect others.

Only Human:
    She may be able to heal faster, but she is still perfectly mortal, and as such can die due to sustaining damage, old age, or even ill health.

Overunderestimated:
    While also a strength, she will often be rejected for the same reason that she is successful.

Hurting or Helping:
    There are times when she wants to help, but instead, simply makes the situation worse.


Other Information:

When she was younger she would often don her costume, now she tends to be a smart casual hero, trading spandex for denim and leg warmers for Dr martin’s. Though the hair band remains.

Doreen is a member of PeTA
