CHARACTER Name: Steve Rogers ✰ Captain America Canon:Marvel Cinematic Universe Timeline:post shawarma post Avengers
Personality: When choosing the right candidate to receive the Super Soldier Serum, Doctor Abraham Erskine was not looking for the strongest or the toughest soldier. He didn't want a bully who would abuse this new power, and that is why he chose the scrawny kid from Brooklyn with a laundry list of physical faults. He recognized Steve's inner strengths and knew that, if successful, the Serum would take care of his lack of physical prowess. Steve is the kind of man who would sacrifice himself to ensure the safety of people around him, evidenced when he threw himself onto a dud grenade in order to take the brunt of the explosion and allow his fellow soldiers to get away. It was in that moment that Erskine knew him to be the right man for the Serum, and proved it to the rest of the SSR. Unfortunately, after the procedure was completed successfully, a HYDRA agent shot the doctor to prevent him from making more Soldiers for the Americans. In his last moments, Erskine poked Steve's chest, just over his heart. "Stay who you are," he had told him the previous night. "Not a perfect soldier, but a good man."

And that is Steve in a nutshell. A good man.
