Back home they had been bakers and wished to one day own a bakery. His father worked in construction as they scrimped and saved to rent a spot for the future business, living upstairs in the storage rooms to devote as much money as they could to their dream. Unfortunately, the one and only child to the hard working parents was sickly and frail. He was the reason the business took so long to establish. By age eight he was well enough to be a normal child but he was small, shy and always the target of bullying in school.<br/><br/>Despite all that, Steve Rogers was taught by his father to be strong and fight for what was right. He would come home bruised and battered but with his head held high. Unable to play sports like the others, the young Steve threw himself into his books and surprised many. He loved history, following politics and sports even if he could not play himself. The bullying never ended but Steve was an immovable object, some even gave up when they realized Steve would always be the better albeit battered man.<br/><br/>His life took a turn for the worst when his parents died at age twelve. The rising bakery had been devoured in flame, killing both parents and a few clients. Some suspected foul play but Steve would never, not that he had the chance as he was shuffled off to a foster group home under the care of terrible guardians. Steve decided he would join the army as soon as possible, attempted to enlist in the ROTC program in school only to be denied and forced to remedial gym. Despite the rejection he visited recruiters, begged to let them test him and one person did ("Sargent Erskine"- as he knew him). He scored off the charts in the aptitude/academic tests but his physical condition was atrocious! One recruiter came to him and told him if he would be willing to take an experimental enhancer but only until he was fully matured. The young teen zealously agreed and went to a high tech lab a little after his sixteenth birthday. After tests and prodding he was given something called "The Serum".<br/><br/>The man who walked out of the chamber was not the boy that went in. Steve looked at himself with wide eyes, trembling from both fear and joy! He spoke with the recruiter and said he would join whichever branch of the military the man suggested but he had to wait till he was legally of age. The few weeks he went back to his old school was a crash course in physical education, social interaction and sex-ed. When questions where raised, Steve was told he was transferring to a new school that could help mold him into the person he desired to be.<br/><br/>Steve has had a little over a year in his current body and is still learning about his limits, but his goals have never and would never change.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Personality: </strong>Steve is a man who will keep his word no matter what and is severely duty driven. He is compelled to protect and serve, be the pinnacle of all his parents wished for.<br/><strong>Powers: </strong><br/>Steve Rogers is the pinnacle of human physical perfection. He has a very high intelligence as well as agility, strength, speed, endurance, and reaction time superior to any Olympic athlete who ever competed. The Super-Soldier formula that he had metabolized had enhanced all of his bodily functions to the peak of human efficiency. Most notably, his body eliminates the excessive build-up of fatigue-producing poisons in his muscles, granting him phenomenal endurance.<br/><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong>Steve Rogers is in the process of mastering the martial arts of American-style boxing and judo, and plans on combining those disciplines with his own unique hand-to-hand style of combat. He engages in a daily regimen of rigorous exercise (including aerobics, weight lifting, gymnastics, and simulated combat) to keep himself in peak condition. He will be one of the finest human combatants Earth will ever know.<br/><br/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://i.annihil.us/u/prod/marvel//universe3zx/images/thumb/a/a8/CaptAmericaShield_main.jpg/406px-CaptAmericaShield_main.jpg)</div><strong>Weapon:</strong>Steve Rogers only weapon is his shield, a concave disk 2.5 feet in diameter, weighing 12 pounds. It is made of a unique Vibranium-metal alloy that has never been duplicated. The shield was cast by American metallurgist Dr. Myron MacLain, who was contracted by the U.S. government to create an impenetrable substance to use for tanks during World War II. MacLain was never able to duplicate the process due to his inability to identify a still unknown factor that played a role in it. The shield was given to him by the recruiter, "Sargent Erskine" with a few words of wisdom and promises of what it meant to be a man of honor.<br/><br/>The shield has great aerodynamic properties: it is able to slice through the air with minimal wind resistance and deflection of path. Its great overall resilience, combined with its natural concentric stiffness, enables it to rebound from objects with minimal loss of angular momentum. It is virtually indestructible: it is resistant to penetration, temperature extremes, and the entire electromagnetic spectrum of radiation. The only way it can be damaged in any way is by tampering with its molecular bonding.<br/><br/><strong>Fears and Weaknesses: </strong><br/><strong>Fears-</strong>Feels responsible for his parent's deaths.<br/>Failing<br/><strong>Weaknesses-</strong><br/>Is limited to only is humanly possible physically<br/><strong>Desires and Aversions: </strong><br/><strong>Desires- </strong><br/>To be accepted and attend a prestige military academy and serve his country.<br/><strong>Aversions-</strong><br/>Those who prey on the weak<br/>People seek to take advantage of others<br/><strong>Controllable: </strong>Yes- BUT, his code of conduct and ethics will not be forsaken, ever.<br/><hr/>Notes- Steve is not the well known Captain America (yet), was never frozen. I am starting this character as the start to this hero (in this universe).
