BIO:

The orphan Sarah belonged to the underground group of mutant refugees known as the Morlocks, until they were decimated by an opposing mutant faction. Sarah grew up hating humans and "normal looking" mutants, and came to lead the surviving members of the Morlocks. Her mutant genes that caused uncontrolled bone growth horribly disfigured her, and she was never able to survive in the outside world. She battled the X-Men, and was nearly killed. At the urging of Callisto, the former leader of the Morlocks, Marrow joined the X-Men. Although there was considerable tension at first, the others came to trust their former adversary.

Marrow was never a popular Marvel character... so she was a very unexpected choice for Marvel VS Capcom 2. Appropriately enough, she was rarely picked in MVC2... seriously, I don't think I've ever see anyone ever pick her and use her "seriously" (and I've played that game over 15 years. lol). Nonetheless, Marrow's moveset & animations are actually pretty cool-looking in MVC2 and she shows vivid personality in-game. I think Marrow might've fared better if she entered Capcom's Versus series a bit earlier than MVC2.

Marrow isn't a bad or boring design, but someone else in the Marvel universe could've easily taken her place as an "exciting new character" in MVC2... and been more effective in that game. Heck, even a different member from the Morlocks might've suited the game a bit better (I could think of a few).
