Rogers' body regularly replenished the super-soldier serum, it does not wear off. The formula enhances all of her metabolic functions and prevents the build-up of fatigue poisons in her muscles, giving her endurance far in excess of an ordinary human being. This accounts for many of her extraordinary feats, including bench pressing 1200 pounds (545 kg) and running a mile (1.6 km) in 73 seconds (49 mph/78 kph). Rogers cannot become intoxicated by drugs, including alcohol,or by impurities in the air and is immune to terrestrial diseases. She is also highly resistant to hypnosis or gases that could limit her focus. High proficiency in Judo, Boxing, Taekwondo, Krav Maga and Capoeira She has an energy enhanced shield built by Tony Stark using materials similar to those that make up his armor which can be used with either arm to either block attacks or as an improvised offensive weapon. An additional effect of it's unusual construction is that it is able to cut through metal with relative ease. Much like her great-uncle's vibranium shield the energy shield can also be thrown, including ricocheting off multiple surfaces and returning to her hand, Her uniform is made of a fire-retardant material, and she wears a lightweight, bulletproof "duralumin" scale armor beneath her uniform for added protection.[/Hider] Appearance: [IMG]http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs4/i/2004/225/2/7/Caitlin_Fairchild__Gen_13.jpg[/IMG] Costume: [IMG]http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2012/060/c/9/mari_as_captain_america_by_orionpax09-d4q79kk.jpg[/IMG] [Hider=Brief bio]The secrets of creating a super-soldier were lost with the death of its creator, Dr. Abraham Erskine but a sample lot was discovered by a secret branch of the Army's R&D agency. Eager to try and recreate the project they began researching the best course. However, in the decades after the creation of Captain America there have been numerous secret attempts to recreate Erskine's treatment, only to have them end in failure. Even worse, the attempts have instead often created psychopathic super villains. It was during their research that they discovered one of Dr. Erskine's secrets, Steve Rodger's DNA had a unique marker that was needed. Having only a small amount of the ”Project Rebirth” serum they began a fevered search after 911 for Rodger's extended family and a suitable subject. Emily Freedom Rodgers was born on July 4, 1994 in Albany N.Y. to Ernest Rodgers and Lacy Jones Rodgers. Emily was a normal girl living the middle class life in Albany when at the age of 12 they found her. Her genetic markers were perfect for the revival of Rebirth and the R&D lab created conditions that led to her seizure by DFACS on the trumped up charges of Abuse. Once they had her they began their research, at first giving her small doses of serum along with artificial energy stimulation they found her body like her great uncle's could regenerate serum and they could leach it from her. Each round of bloodlessly was like being set on fire for young Emily but none cared how she felt. Blinded by a lust for power they kept her caged like an animal between sessions without a care for her mental well being. For two years they tortured poor Emily then at the age of 14 after using her body as a factory they'd collected enough serum and merely kept her on hand for future study. They'd failed to notice that during their experiments Emily's body had changed and while she wasn't a super soldier by use of the serum, her adolescent body had mutated mimicking its effects. They had planned on keeping her and their project a secret but one day Agent's of SHIELD raided their operation. Arresting all those connected with the legal project SHIELD doctors had discovered what the project's doctors had missed, Emily was no longer a normal girl. SHIELD reunited young Emily with her parents but maintained a watch on her after swearing her to secrecy. They also under a covert project known only as Mentor inserted agents in her area who's duties were to direct her development. Some were teachers in her school, others were shop owners one was the local martial arts instructor. Shield remembered all the help her great uncle had been and saw in Emily the chance to create his replacement in the Avengers should he quit, retire or be killed. Emily was encouraged to be a new hope for the future of America. Her school received the best teachers Shield could covertly entice to teach there and because of this the school scored higher over all in their work and grades. Emily knowing of her power couldn't help herself and has used her abilities to safeguard her town from time to time. This required that Shield supply her with a uniform and shield to protect her true identity. Lucky for Shield her home's location and the surrounding area are sparely populated and seldom suffer major crimes.[/Hider] Hi love the idea of new Avengers who are relations of the former team so I thought I'd toss in Emily
