BLACK WIDOW
Natalia Alianovna Romanova ♦ Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D ♦ Here, There And Everywhere
C H A R A C T E R C O N C E P T:
"I don't need a home. I don't need a family. I don't need friends. I just need to finish this job."
Where Natasha was born in Russia is an unknown, as well as her biological parents, and even her date of birth. She does not remember any of her life before being brought to the 'Red Room' so as far as she is considered that is where she was born. Here she received heavy psychological conditioning and biochemical manipulation via injection with the Red Rooms version of the 'Super-Soldier' serum, as well as various other experimental serums intended to make her easier to control and expand her lifespan. Natasha was trained and excelled in many forms of martial arts and espionage, as well as displaying excellent acrobatic ability and marksmanship with firearms, this caught the eyes of the directors of the Red Room. One of the earliest missions that Natasha was deployed on was an undercover operation in the USA, here she developed an unlikely relationship with Alexei Shostakov (The Red Guardian) and Yelena Belova (Another Red Room operative), who became akin to her foster father and foster sister respectively. Although as soon as the mission was completed they were separated, they would cross each others paths occasionally in future missions, however Natasha quickly learned that people would come and go and that no matter how she began to feel for others she ultimately would be alone in the world.
Natasha could be considered to be the key operative of the Red Room. Carrying out many assassinations on its targets as well as successfully sabotaging and gathering information on opposing organizations and governments. Although her age is unknown and she appears to be somewhere in her early 20s, Natasha has been active for years and years and has gained rather extensive experience. It is unknown when exactly it was that Natasha began to have thoughts of defection or even had a change of heart, it is not something she has spoken of but most who speculate assume it to be a 'straw that broke the camels back' situation. Assuming that Natasha had a good nature there was only so much that her heart and mind could take, and only a matter of time before the conditioning of the 'Red Room' could make up for that, or even that it could potentially be a deep cover operation from the start. Natasha has never corrected anyone on their own pet theories. Whatever it was that led it to happening, Natasha found herself making contact with S.H.I.E.L.D (perhaps Nick Fury and Colonel Rogers could have been involved) and worked out a deal to defect to them.
Since then Natasha has operated as a diligent and constantly active Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D, making herself almost indispensable to them, as far as one can be at least. She has also been considered as a member of the Avengers, although currently she does not feel much belonging on a team, or even to be considered in the midst of heroes.
P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ):
I would like to play this character because it is one I have always enjoyed whether it be in the MCU movies of the comics. I am also rather intrigued with the spy aspect of the character along with the superhero one, which could allow for more diversity in story ideas like maybe a bit of James Bond or more grounded and gritty stories paired with the more traditional superhero antics.
Ideally she would start as a roaming character who shows up in the stories that other characters are driving. (I know already that there is a Batman story planned with Natasha involved, and I think that she could easily get involved with stories concerning S.H.I.E.L.D) Hopefully after appearing in a few others stories I plan on transitioning Natasha into a driving character in her own right although I don't want to start making any concrete plans for that at this moment as it could be quite dependent on how things go.
I think there is a lot of potential for Black Widow to have some history with several characters due to her history as a Red Room operative and an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D, whether they were allies of enemies could also be something to consider. With that said I do not have any plans for this version of Natasha to have had any romantic relationships in her life so far, purely using her 'seductive charms' as part of her skillset on missions. I also do not plan for romance to be particularly important to the character and think their growth through story would be more healing from her past and making true friends. as well as the constant search for redemption on the way.
C H A R A C T E R N O T E S:
-My concept of Black Widow is mostly going to be inspired by that of her portrayal in the MCU, as well as somewhat by the #6 issue 2004 run, although I would like to think that I also have my own twists and additions to the character which will become more apparent through RP than this sheet.
- To start with I plan on this version of Natasha to be a rather isolated and haunted person, who through her usual charismatic and confident veneer is cut off from everyone around her.
- For equipment I plan on Widow to make use of her fancy gauntlets with many pouches that can fit in a variety of useful tools, including her Widow's Bite projectile. Along with this she will have a belt that is rigged with explosives, and likely some kind of gun and bladed weapon.
- Due to the Super-Soldier serum this version of Black Widow is clearly more 'superhuman' than her MCU counterpart, likely bringing her more in line with the likes of MCU Captain America when it comes to capabilities with Strength and Endurance. Whether everyone going through the Red Room got this or it was selective to a few operatives could be something left to be determined until it is a relevant part of the story.
- Natasha is likely still rather quick to kill on a mission, although I plan for her to become more reluctant as time goes on maybe even eventually developing her own 'no killing rule', not that anyone would take her seriously with that.

She-Hulk
Jennifer Sue Walters ♦ Avenger/Lawyer ♦ New York/Avengers HQ
C H A R A C T E R C O N C E P T:
"Stop calling me Jen! It's She-Hulk now! The Sensational She-Hulk! Famous Hero and Avenger! Also stop looking at me like that I'm here to help not smash!"
Jennifer grew up in the city of Lose Angeles, California, with her parents Morris Walters and Elaine Banner Walters. In her childhood she was very close with her cousin Bruce and would practically spend all of her free time with him, she recalls those moments where they would just sit and read with each other or go out and get a snack with great nostalgia. From a young age she had an interest in law, partly inspired by her father who was had a long and successful career in law enforcement. However she was torn, on the one hand she would have liked to follow in her fathers footsteps but on the other she also had dreams of being a dancer. After long talks with her parents they settled that they could compromise and really focus on pursuing law while keeping dancing as a hobby.
After the passing of her mother in a car accident, Jennifer found herself growing even closer to both her father and her cousin Bruce, pretty much relying on them to keep her stable in times of grief. Jennifer initially attended university at UCLA where she studied and graduated in Law. Unfortunately, not long after starting her career in Law she took on a client that was planning on snitching on his own gang in hopes of getting a favorable deal with the court. This led to Jennifer getting shot by another member of this clients gang who wanted to stop the hearings by any means. If it was not for the intervention by her cousin Bruce via a blood transfusion Jennifer likely would have died. In fact if it was just any regular blood transfusion she still might not have survived... But this was no regular blood transfusion, Bruce's gamma radiated blood was now pumped through Jennifer's body just as it did his and as a result, She-Hulk was born.
Initially it was a lot to get used to. Luckily she had her cousin and her father to support and guide her still. Bruce was of particularly good at guiding Jennifer in getting used to her knew transformation as She-Hulk, utilizing his experience as the Hulk to train her in how to handle this newfound power. Jennifer would first take up crime fighting as a local stint, however eventually she would go on to join up with the Avengers and had been a loyal and present member ever since. She likes to think of herself as being a 'staple' of the Avengers team and takes great pride in the work they do. As well as the privilege's that the position affords...
P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ):
I have always enjoyed She-Hulk, but after reading Dan Slott's run with her I found myself growing a real soft spot for the character. Although I don't really plan to get 'meta' at all in any moment throughout the RP like that run did, I will likely take some of my characterization from that run, especially that part where she is very reluctant and embarrassed to just be Jennifer Walters. This She-Hulk thinks of herself as She-Hulk first and foremost and through the story hopefully will come to terms with being Jennifer Walters. Down the line I also have plans of potentially having to struggle with a lurking but growing 'savage' side, perhaps making it like her grey hulk form to clearly distinguish between her usual green self.
The plan is for She-Hulk to be another roaming character. I would like her to be a reliable and regular member of the Avengers, perhaps even a founding member of the team or someone who joined near it's onset. She is likely overly interested in jumping on any possible Avengers mission so that she can do as much good as possible. Also she could support the Avengers in any legal disputes they may run into and be a bit of a paperwork machine. Also if the player of Brawn is interested she could also keep her eye on his exploits as a sort of big sister figure.
C H A R A C T E R N O T E S:
- Jennifer pretty much never returns to her regular form. In fact she hates it and only does so extremely unwillingly, more likely on accident than not in fact.
- She is very defensive and protective of her cousin Bruce and other gamma irradiated individuals.
- Has little to no experience with her 'savage' She-Hulk form which is indeed present. In fact she may not even be aware that is exists, which may make its growing influence more dangerous.
- Although coming across as hot headed and enthusiastic about things she is also rather shy and easily embarrassed. Also extremely self conscious.
