<strong><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;">THE AVENGERS</span><strong><br/><br/>CODENAME: Captain America<br/>PLAYED BY: Mattthewman<br/>REAL NAME: Steve Rogers<br/>AGE: 28<br/>SEXUAL ORIENTATION: Straight<br/><br/>APPEARANCE/COSTUME: (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EY-lBwtQHOI/T6bYR9LOa4I/AAAAAAAAGsE/tRil0gAALFI/s1600/Captain-America+imagemdesign3d.png)<br/><br/>APPEARANCE/WITHOUT COSTUME: (http://www.blogcdn.com/news.moviefone.com/media/2013/07/captain-america-chris-evans.jpg)<br/><br/>POWERS/ABILITIES:<br/><br/>Super Soldier Serum: A serum given to Steve during WW2, designed to create a 'Super Soldier' to help the Allies win the war. The Serum boosted all of Steve's physical and combat abilities far beyond the limits of normal human ability, essentially making him a low level super being.<br/><br/>WEAKNESSES: Even with the Super Soldier Serum, Steve is still just a man, and thus, is susceptible to all common forms of injury. He can just take a whole lot more of it before succumbing to the damage.<br/><br/>HISTORY: Enlisting in the Army to fight in WW2, Steve Rogers was deemed too unfit for duty. Determined to help his country in any way that he could though, Steve volunteered for the Super Soldier Project. The Project was successful, and after being dosed with the Super Soldier Serum, Steve Rogers found his entire body transformed. Where before he was weak and sickly, he was now the pinnacle human specimen. Sadly, before the process could be replicated, the man who had created the Serum, Dr. Erksine, was murdered, and his knowledge was lost. Steve Rogers was the first, and last, Super Soldier. Still, Steve was determined to fight on in the Doctor's memory, and was prepared to take to the battlefields. After a brief stint as a more of a mascot for the U.S. Army and PR, Steve got his wish, fighting against the Nazis as Captain America, coming into conflict with many villains, such as the Red Skull, Baron Zemo, and the evil organization known as HYDRA.<br/><br/>Captain America led the allies to many victories in the war effort, but near the end of WW2, was lost on a mission along with his youthful sidekick, Bucky Barnes. He was thought to have perished, but actually survived, frozen in ice for several decades. Eventually, he was found by his old ally Namor, and rescued. Awakening to a world far different from the one he left behind, Steve found himself a man out of time. But one thing had not changed, Steve's desire to help those in need. In order to continue doing this, he joined up with the Avengers, soon becoming the team's leader.<br/><br/>Over the years, he's participated in virtually every major conflict the Avengers have ever found themselves in. In more recent years, he fought against Iron Man and those supporting the Super Hero Registration Act in the Civil War, which culminated in his assassination. He fought his way back to life to defeat the villainous machinations of the Red Skull. Aided the Heroes in defeating Norman Osborn when he laid siege to Asgard, after which he took the Green Goblin's position as 'Top Cop' of the Country. Played a role in defeating the Red Skull's Daughter when she aligned herself with the Norse God of Fear, where he returned to his duties as Captain America when Bucky stepped down from the role, and now leads the Avengers alongside Iron Man once.<br/><br/><br/>PERSONALITY: Brave, honest, and loyal. Steve Rogers is a bit of a boy scout at times. An old-fashioned man at heart, Steve has had trouble adjusting to the sensibilities of the modern day, though he is making an effort to catch up on everything he missed. Being as upfront as he is, this tends to make Steve a pretty bad liar, as Natasha has pointed out on several occasions. This makes missions that involve anything but fighting or the occasional stealth difficult, putting Steve on the bench for those occasions. Still, Steve is a natural leader, able to take charge of most situations confidently even when he is bumping shoulders with the Asgardians or Gamma Monsters. Determined to a fault, Steve never gives up on an objective, no matter the cost.<br/></strong></strong>
