**James Clint Rogers**, otherwise known as **The Captain** is a serving Captain in the NY Insurgents and is the son of the two late heroes Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff, AKA Captain America and Black Widow. He serves in the fight against the Organization as he has for many years as is a righteous and well respected leader.

In his earlier years, after having found out he'd inherited an even more powerful version of the Super Soldier Serum from his father via his genes being passed down, James served as an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and went on many missions with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s S.T.R.I.K.E. Force. James later became a short time member of the Avengers. He was also, despite his parents insisting for him to do the opposite, present at the attack of the Organisation in 2050. This was the battle in which James lost his parents, finding them dead after the battle had been won by The Organisation.

A few years after this, most of those years being in mourning, James came across the NY Insurgents and after meeting their leader, General Jack Harkness, James joined the team. It was around the year 2054, by which James had become an integral part of the rebel group, the rebellion came across the shield of James' late father. Jack Harkness then gave it to him personally, at the same time promoting him to the rank of Captain and officially knighting him "The Next Captain America", however James insisted on being known as just "The Captain" as in his words: "I don't just fight for the freedom of America, I fight for the freedom of the planet.".

James still to this day fights with the NY Insurgents as a Captain and has led many battles and won many as well. He is the perfect combatant, soldier and leader, aiding the insurgents to obtain the freedom of the world.

## Biography

### Early Years

#### Birth of a Captain

James Clint Rogers was born on the 3rd of June 2020 to Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff (AKA Captain America and Black Widow) in the city of New York. James spent most of his childhood at the Avengers Facility or S.H.I.E.L.D. Facilities due to his parents hero occupation of being in the Avengers, a group of Earth's Mightiest Heroes. This meant that he didn't have much of an actual childhood at home, however he was able to go to an actual school located a short while away from the Avengers Facility.

James was looked after by his parents as well as his Godfathers James 'Bucky' Barnes and Clint Barton, the best friends of his parents who were also Avengers themselves, going by the names of "The Winter Soldier" and "Hawkeye" respectively. This meant that James practically grew up around heroes and agents through his entire child life

#### Education and Early Training

James was educated both privately at the facilities he lived at as well as at a school in Upstate New York, due to it being close to his home. James got a full education as well as an extra advanced education through S.H.I.E.L.D. as he was slowly bred to be a hero and Agent of the organization.

James' training started from the early age of 6, just like his mother. The boy went through advanced training exercise to enhance his mental and physical strength, however this is something his father didn't fully agree with.

#### The Discovery of Power

When James grew to the age of 10, he seemed to be doing amazingly in the training he was going through, much better than anyone else on record of his age and even people half a decade older than him. This caused everyone around him, including his family, to grow curious. This led them to conduct a few light tests which showed a fascinating result. James had inherited the Super Soldier Serum genes from his father.

However, James' abilities were not the same as his father's, as James' were somehow enhanced through the genetic inheritance. This meant that when James got to his prime, he would be even stronger, more durable, more agile and more intelligent than Captain America himself.

### Training

James, as he got older, was trained more and more by his family and S.H.I.E.L.D.. During this time, on James' 18th birthday to be exact, he was gifted a pair of shields. Wakandan Shields to be exact. Small, compact, extendable Vibranium Shields. James began to train with these heavily from the day he got them, learning from his father directly. James soon became an expert with the shields and was able to use them in many different ways of defence and offense.

James also during this time began and completed advanced weapons, stealth, CQC, detective, investigative, general combat and spy training as well as many more types of training and preparation.

### Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

#### Espionage

Straight after his training was completed, James being at age 21, he went into the same area of expertise as his mother, than being a spy for S.H.I.E.L.D. and the US Government. James went on many missions, getting intelligence for S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Government and, under his mother's training, James became one of the best if not the best spy that the country had been blessed with in a long time. This time in his career was able to enhance James' abilities in stealth, hacking, and hand-to-hand combat.

#### S.T.R.I.K.E. Team

After a few years of being in the espionage area, James was asked by at the time Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Nick Fury to join the S.H.I.E.L.D. S.T.R.I.K.E. Team, an offer James graciously accepted without hesitation. James went on to serve with this team as he helped save many, many lives while serving with the team, eventually becoming the second-in-command of the team. With the team, James was able to advance his weaponry skills as well as his tactical skills among many more skills.

Being on the S.T.R.I.K.E. team meant that James was away a lot of the time, being deployed constantly to different parts of the world. On all of these missions and travels, James was able to picky up many languages. This meant he leant, atop the English and Russian he already knew, Mandarin, German, French, Spanish, Polish among many more languages. His naturally high IQ allowed him to learn these very quickly.

On a specific mission on the team, being one of James' last, James was able to save the rest of his team as well as around 17 hostages single handily, as he fought off many terrorists at the same time. Following this rescue, James co-ordinated another mission to bring the terrorist organisation down, something they managed to do. It was after these two events that he proved his ultimate worth and, after his parents discussing it with the rest of the team, James was asked to be apart of the Avengers.

### The Avengers

James spent only a short time with the group, however on the missions he did go on he was shown to be a valuable member. He was able to co-ordinate attacks and grew a large bond with the rest of the team, even more of a bond since he grew up around them. However, despite the other members of the group having "Superhero Names", James insisted on keeping his status of Agent. This made him become known as "The Agent".

#### Attack of The Organisation

In the year 2050, a while after James joined the Avengers, an evil and vicious group known as The Organization attacked the Earth, wanting nothing more than to rule and conquer the world. The Avengers as well as so many other organisations and groups of heroes fought this vile organization of villainy, but to no prevail.

The Avengers took part in the main battle against The Organization, nearby to the Avengers compound. The last stand went on for an entire day, and all of the biggest heroes fought. One of these heroes, despite his parents attempting to push for the opposite, was James himself. James fought hard against The Organization in this battle, using all of his abilities and skills he had learnt but it seemed to be no use. The Organization was clearly gaining the upper hand.

Heroes fell all around the battlefield, James being a witness to nearly each and every one. He came across his parents through the fight as well as seeing Bucky and Clint too. The small group of 5 heroes fought and fought as hard as they could but suddenly, a large missile came huddling from the sky at them. Then a large bang, shrapnel and rubble going everywhere around, James having been blown away by the blast while the other four were directly hit. As the ringing stopped in James' ears and the dust seemed to settle even just a bit on the battlefield, the man saw his own parents, dead. Along side them were his Godfathers. Clint Barton had been killed straight away as well but Bucky was alive. Barely.

James took his friend and family member and began to drag him through the battlefield, fighting still going on everywhere around them. James managed to pull Bucky away from the majority of the battle as he eventually laid down on some rubble. Bucky was bleeding out, his robotic arm missing. Despite what James hoped for, there was no saving the Winter Soldier. James held his Godfather in his hands as Bucky said two final words: "Run. Survive.". And with that the infamous Winter Soldier had died, leaving James without a family, without any friends left. The Organization had one. They took everything. The heroes had lost...

### After the Fall

James spent the following few years in despair and mourning, trying to survive. He fought through many bandit camps and other villains along his way, still managing to be a hero even after the rest of the heroes had died. James during these years tried his best to hide from The Organization, knowing that on his own he'd be killed by them. However sometimes he did choose to take down small groups of them, troopers and such, just to get that little bit of vengeance against them, bit by bit.

### NY Insurgents

#### A Heroic Act

James eventually on his travels across the United States as he avoided The Organization as much as he could heard of a Rebellion based in New York known as the NY Insurgents. By the time he heard of them, he was far from New York, but was able to track down a squad of Rebels out to look for anything they could get their hands on and take it back to their HQ. However when James found them, they were in somewhat of a mess.

The Rebels had been caught in a surprise attack by a small group of Bandits. Luckily for the Rebels, James had found them and began to devise a plan. As the Bandits stripped the Rebel squad of their weapons and resources, James took his Wakandan Shields and put them into the extended mode, ready for battle. He jumped from the rubble he was hiding behind at the Bandits and began to attack them all. He knew they were vicious so knew they'd have to die. James swiftly used his skills and training to take out the group of 20 bandits on his own with minor damage to himself. It was fascinating to watch: the combos, the leaps, the jumps, the swipes and the impact of the hits were remarkable.

Soon enough, James had defeated the Bandits and let the Rebels free. In return all James wanted was a chance to prove himself. He then accompanied himself with the Rebel squad to go back to New York with new supplies. James hoped he'd be able to join the Rebellion when he got back, but he'd have to see.

#### Job Interview

When James got back with the Rebel Squadron, he was met by their leader: the infamous Jack Harkness. The Time Agent, turned Con man, turned Leader of Torchwood, now sat at the head of a Rebellion against The Organization? It was an impressive CV to say the least. Jack thanked James for saving his men before being ready to leave Rogers, however the survivor of the Avengers took a step forward and said his name. James Clint Rogers. This caused Jack to stop in his tracks. He clearly had heard of him. Harkness turning and said the three words: "Come with me.". At that moment, James knew he was in.

James had what seemed to be an interview of sorts with General Harkness, although it felt more like a friendly yet professional chat. They spoke about life, their losses. War and battle. Pride, honour and respect. And finally, they spoke about the battle in which James lost his parents. Although Harkness wasn't there himself, he was defending in the United Kingdom, specifically at The Hub in Cardiff the old Torchwood HQ, at around the same time. On that day he lost people close to him as well. This is something the pair bonded over well.

The meeting, if you were to call it a meeting, lasted hours and hours. But by the end of it, James was allowed into the Rebellion as a standard Trooper. He'd have to work his way up from the bottom. Piece of Cake.

#### Service to the NY Insurgents

The year James joined the Rebel group was 2052. James served as a standard trooper for no more than 2 months before he slowly but surely began jumping up the ranks. On his missions he showed strength, respect, loyalty, a good tactical mind and amazing leadership. James was on his way to the same rank his father was. What an achievement that would be.

##### Retrieval of the Shield

The year was 2054. James had been an integral part of the Rebellion for 2 whole years and was at the rank of Lieutenant and was gaining on the rank of Captain. His ideal rank. While James was on a mission leading a squad to get more supplies and scan to new Organization territory in New York , another squad was sent to the battlefield at which the Avengers lost against The Organization. Here they found something amazing, something unexpected. A relic that could now be passed down. It's legacy was great, but it's old owner was greater.

After James returned from his successful mission, he was met with Jack Harkness with a large circular case in the middle of the Insurgents HQ. James stepped forward as he was presented with the gift of a life time. the Vibranium Shield of Captain America. James was almost in shock about this, a flurry of emotions. The memories of his old life and family. Then, James put on the shield. It was worn, and dirty, and damaged. But it felt… right. He felt good about himself with it. Along side this shield, a group of rebels then presented him with a new suit to replace his older, battered and half-broken one. It had an ‘A’ on it’s helmet, and a small star on it’s chest too. He knew what it was… But he couldn’t believe it. He looked around to Harkness as Jack simply said: “There you go. Captain.” Jack then giving them to him promoted him to the rank of Captain and officially knighted him "The Next Captain America", however James insisted on being known as just "The Captain" as in his words: "I don't just fight for the freedom of America, I fight for the freedom of the planet.", something that proved his righteousness perfectly.

### The Captain

James still works with the NY Insurgents to this day as The Captain. He leads the rebels into battles, winning them and slowly taking back the world from the scum and villainy that is The Organization. He fights for peace, freedom and most of all he fights for the human race, in a war to take back their planet for good.

## Personality

James is similar to his father, being quite righteous and can be quite positive at times. However he does take a serious demeanour on his missions and can be quite a violent character. He is kind to his friends, but vicious to his enemies. The man was a good leader and a good soldier, having no problem with violence if necessary, but tires his utter best not to murder, a trait he got from his father. James also has a strong sense of morals and will stick by his morals no matter what, making him sometimes come across as stubborn. James mainly just wants to do what is right and will do what is necessary to accomplish that.

## Physical Appearance

James is a tall man, being at a height of 6 ft and 1 inch. He has quite a naturally muscular body as well, partly because of his inherited abilities from his father, but also because of his intense exercise regime. He has dirty brown hair and bright blue eyes, taking most of his looks again, from his father. However some do say that he has a slight resemblance to his mother.

James tends to wear his field gear from day to day, due to that being all he usually does from day to day. His field gear consists of his Vibranium Shield which he usually always has on his person, this shield replaced his old Wanandan Shields. However apart from his signature shield, he wears a modified version of his father's old suit, his design having been altered to have less stars and stripes and mainly being coloured black and grey.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

The Super-Soldier Serum also healed all of his ailments, physical and genetic imperfections before he was even born, giving him a perfect body better than that of a man in his physical prime by the time he reached his own prime.

* **Shield Mastery:** Rogers' years of training and experience with his unique shield, as well as its physical properties, allow him to accomplish amazing feats with the item. Aside from bashing foes and blocking incoming attacks, even from extremely skilled weapon masters. Additionally he is able to throw it with a nearly perfect aim.

* **Master Interrogator:** James has been able to pick up many interrogation techniques over the years, and has even been able to demonstrate a basic understanding of how to to do a "reverse interrogation"; acting scared and almost afraid to get information. However, James tends to prefer a far more up front and intimidating approach to interrogation.

## Weaknesses

* **Mortality:** Although James is a genetic Super Soldier, having enhanced abilities even beyond that of his father, James can still be damaged in many of the same ways as others, even if it takes a lot more. James can also be killed like any other human but again it takes a lot to accomplish this goal.

## Equipment

* **Vibranium Shield:** Belong to his father before him, James uses this shield as his main tool. The shield is about 2.5 feet in diameter, weighing 12 pounds and was painted in its familiar red-white-and-blue pattern with a five-pointed star design in its centre, however now all the paint has been scrapped off and it's wear from over the many years means it is now a mere dark metal colour with small specs of red, white and blue along with large black marks on it. It was constructed by Howard Stark and made from Vibranium only. The Vibranium composition allows the shield to absorb and reflect kinetic energy from impacts, therefore, making it nigh-indestructible. Nearly every kind of human weaponry cannot even dent it, as bullets normally bounce off it. The shield is also strong enough to combat magic and mystical weapons, such as Thor's hammer Mjolnir. It can also withstand laser beams, deflecting them in a coordinated team attack. The shield's shape makes it a superb throwing weapon. It can cut through the air with minimal wind resistance. It is also able to bounce off solid objects, such as walls and floors, when struck on its edge and can be ricocheted off of multiple surfaces. It also makes a formidable and devastating hand-held weapon.
* **Wakandan Shields:** Rogers was given two-handed shields from Wakanda for his 16th Birthday, capable of collapsing to be smaller and used as gauntlets for punching. The shield's points are incredibly sharp, creating an offensive weapon, being able to pierce the skin of most enemies that face it. These are now however out of use.
* **Field Work Uniform:** James, at the same time he'd been given his father's shield, had been given a black and dark grey version of his father's uniform however without any of the patriotic stars and stripes, this time going for a more subtle and stealthy look to be more practical on his missions.
* **Glock-19:** The standard hand-gun of any member of the NY Insurgents, James can use this to shoot down his enemies, but usually uses it as a last resort.
* **Combat-Knife:** Similar to his Glock-19, this knife is given to all members of the NY Insurgents and is only used by James as a last resort and when strictly nessecary.
