◎ Personality:
Even as a child, Steve Rogers knew what he wanted to be: a soldier. His father served in the 107th infantry and died a hero. Steve grew up listening to his mom tell stories of his father's bravery, so when he learned of the attack on Pearl Harbor and the imminent war, he wanted more than anything to be a part of it. He didn't care that he wasn't the ideal soldier. He wanted to serve his country, and not from home. He wanted to be out on the battle field.
"I don't wanna kill anyone. I don't like bullies, I don't care where they're from."
Steve grew up a small, weak, and sickly child. He was bullied and pushed around for his size, but he never let that stop him. Even from a young age, he stood up for himself and fought back. He does this multiple times in the First Avenger, even before he gets the serum. A man was being rude during a war promotion before a movie, and Steve told him to show some respect. The man didn't listen, so he told him to shut up. Even when the man finally turned to challenge him, he didn't back down. This led to a back alley fight, which Steve never tried to run from. It wasn't until Bucky showed up and ran the guy off did the fight end. If Bucky hadn't have come, he would have kept the fight up until the guy got bored.
"If you start running, they'll never let you stop. You stand up and push back, can't say no forever."
In his conversation with Peggy, Steve tells her of several places he was beat up just on the drive. His stubbornness isn't a new thing. Fighting the back alley bullies is how he met Bucky as a child. This stubbornness doesn't apply to just fights, either. When it came to getting in the army, Steve refused to take no for an answer. He set his mind on his goal and wouldn't give up. He knew his physical limitations, so he trained with Bucky to prepare. And when they turned him down? He went back. He tried five times, even breaking the law and lying about where he was from, just to take that chance to get in. When Doctor Erskine finally gave Steve the chance, he never quit. He was training with men twice his size, not to mention men that made his life as hard as possible, but he kept on.
"This is why you were chosen. Because a strong man, who has known power all his life will lose respect for that power. But a weak man knows value of strength. And knows compassion."
Obviously, it wasn't Steve's physique that got him a part in the Brooklyn project. What sets him apart from other people is his heart. He's stubborn, yes, but he puts other people before himself. He doesn't like bullies, because he doesn't like seeing other people treated badly. He knows what it's like to be looked down upon and the pain that comes with loss. He's not prejudiced about race, gender, or even nationality. He judges people by their actions and nothing else. He doesn't see himself as being better than people, either. As he puts it's, he's "just a kid from Brooklyn."
This is seen multiple times throughout the movies Steve is in. When he meets Erskine, he immediately notices his accent, but he doesn't care that he's from Germany. When he meets Peggy, rather than focus on the fact that she's a woman, he's impressed by how she stands up to the bully of the unit. Even when he meets Bruce Banner, someone he knows to turn into a monster, he doesn't judge. While he is cautious, he treats Bruce like a human. When he runs into Tony Stark, however, he sees Tony as one that fights for himself and nothing else, leading Steve to have issues with the man. During Winter Soldier, Steve was hesitant about Natasha at first. She quickly proved herself to him and he trusted her without hesitation. Steve's humbleness was shown when he didn't go to his award ceremony after saving the four hundred men from HYDRA. Rather than stand in front of hundreds of people and cameras, he decided not to go, using his time to help the SSR track down the rest of the HYDRA bases. He didn't want the limelight, he just wanted to help people.
Steve has a very strong moral compass. While he would be the first to follow all the rules to a T, he'd also be the first to break them when he feels like the rules are wrong. An example of this would be when he goes across enemy lines to save not only his best friend, but the rest of the prisoners of war. Colonel Philips made it clear that there would be no attempts to rescue the men, even when they knew exactly where they were being held. Steve tried to argue this, but was shot down, so he decided to take things into his own hands. With the help of Peggy and Howard, he flew into Austria and single handedly rescued almost four hundred men. The first thing he did when he returned? He offered himself up for disciplinary action. He knew what he did was against the rules, but he knew it was the right thing to do, and that's why he did it. He does this again when he and the other Avengers take the ship to New York to stop Loki. None of them had the clearance or orders to take it, but getting to New York was the priority, so Steve took the ship. Stepping up against SHIELD was another example. Though SHIELD outnumbered them tremendously, he knew the organization was corrupt and had to come down. There was no choice or debate, he did what had to be done to protect the world.
"Maybe I'll just knock. They'll think I've come for a cup of sugar."
Believe it or not, Steve is actually pretty quick witted. He's definitely one to throw in a joke or a snark when the moment is right. While he's one to sass, he knows the right time and place. He's socially adept enough to know the right time to be polite, part of which can be explained by his military background, but he's also skilled enough to be able to throw in a line smoothly that it's almost not even noticed, or taken as him actually being polite. That doesn't mean he doesn't get angry, though. He has a temper just like anyone else, he just knows how to control it when necessary.
Steve is a natural leader. Maybe it's because he spent so many years being the underdog that he just gets people, but he is really conscious about the people he works with. He stands, not with an air of authority, but with an air of respect. Not only does he respect the people he works closely with, but he's gained their respect, allowing them to work seamlessly together. That is to say, with the Howling Commandos. The Avengers are another story. Steve only knows a few of them when they come together, and not well. It takes time, but he comes to understand each of their strengths and once he does, he's able to work with them with no trouble. Natasha is another story. While they work well together, it isn't until she opens up to him that they become a seamless team.
As much as leading comes naturally to Steve, the respect he earned is also based on the fact that he's smart. He was smart before the serum, having spent a lot of time reading and educating himself, but the serum amplified that. He is able to analyze a situation and tactically pursue it without difficulty. His time leading the Howling Commandos definitely perfects this, and in Winter Soldier, Steve is able to devise a plan in a matter of minutes.
"Women aren't exactly lining up to dance with the guy they might step on."
Though his people skills are good, Steve isn't exactly the best when it comes to women. It's not entirely his fault, either. He expressed that before the serum, women didn't want much to do with him because of his size. And when Bucky tried to orchestrate double dates, he was always ignored by the girls. At first, it bothered him, but then he had other things on his mind so he didn't worry about it. But that lack of worry meant he didn't try to understand them. He spent all his time around guys, and being that his best friend was Bucky - a bit of a ladies man - what he knew was how to talk about women, but not how to talk to them. He's better by Winter Soldier, but even when talking to Natasha, it's not hard to tell he's not the best when it comes to women. When she kisses him, he's tense and very awkward, though he denies that it was his first kiss since waking up in 2012. He's not quite as awkward when he talks to Sharon, actually almost asking her out, but he's not exactly smooth, either.
"I guess I don't know why you'd want to join the army. A beautiful dame like you-- I mean, a woman. An agent. Not a dame. I mean, you are beautiful-- "
Peggy was his first real experience with a woman. While other men just saw a woman, Steve saw her as a fighter. She understood what he went through, having, as she put it, every door shut in her face. She was one of the first to see the real him, not the small man, but the big heart. Their relationship is complicated, mostly due to the fact that the two are clearly attracted to each other, but a war prevented them from being anything more. Steve admires her greatly from the moment they met. He's more easily distracted by her presence, takes time to make sure she's safe, and even as he's crashing to what he thinks will be his death, he talks about seeing her again. When he wakes up in the 21st century, in all is confusion in distress, the second thing out of his mouth was "I had a date." It pains him to have been pulled away from her like that. During Avengers, he spent a lot of time looking over her old case file and contemplate calling her, but the loss was so fresh, he couldn't bare it. By Winter Soldier, it still hurts him a lot, but that doesn't stop him from seeing her. He visits her at the nursing home often, even though her dementia makes him have to relive her pain at losing him often. At the Smithsonian, he lingers to watch the documentaries with her, and the compass with her picture is something he still carries around to remember her by.
After Steve wakes up in the 21st century, he's a lot more cold and withdrawn than he was before. This draws largely from the fact that almost everyone he cared about is now dead. The world has completely changed around him. While he goes through the motions and tries to adjust, he's still stuck in the past. Everything from his clothes to his apartment are all vintage. His down time is spent combing over old case files of his friends or training and getting lost in his memories of the past. It isn't until the end of the movie that it's evident that Steve's finally accepted his place. He rides off in his motorcycle in a symbolic "rides into the sunset" kind of way, showing he's putting the past behind him and ready to move on. By the time of Winter Soldier, he's more settled into the times, and his personality becomes more of what it was in the First Avenger. Rather than being angry and cold, as he was at times in Avengers, he jokes around and gets along with people, even strangers. He has several new friends, though a few are part of SHIELD, and isn't afraid to make more. He's even taken time to date, though he admits it's difficult finding someone with shared life experience.
In the two years that's passed leading up to Winter Soldier, it becomes clear that Steve has accepted his fate. He's finally comfortable in the 21st century and has moved on from the life he left behind. One such symbol of this is the fact that he lives in DC. Having grown up in Brooklyn, moving away shows that he isn't the same person that he was all those years before. Even though he has accepted that he's trapped in time, that doesn't mean he forgets where he came from. He frequents the Smithsonian's exhibit on Captain America, giving him the chance to see long lost faces from a time long past. It allows him to feel connected to the people he cared about. He also takes trips to visit an elderly Peggy Carter in the nursing home. While both these things are clearly hard on him, what with having lost his best friend and having to watch Peggy forget, he still makes an effort to be around them and cherish them.
"I'm with you 'til the end of the line."
Bucky Barnes has a huge impact on Steve's life in a lot of ways. Since childhood, Bucky's had Steve's back. They fought in World War II together, but then Bucky died (or at least, Steve thought so at the time). The loss was very hard on Steve. He felt responsible and blamed himself, even though it wasn't his fault and he did everything he could. That was a guilt he carried with him into the 21st century. The pain on his face when he looks at Bucky in the Smithsonian isn't far from the pain that it showed just after he lost Bucky. That being said, it shouldn't be surprising that when Steve learned that Bucky hadn't died after all, he stopped at nothing to try and get his friend back. Even when Sam tried to warn Steve that it wouldn't be possible, Steve refused to listen. He knew his friend was still inside somewhere and he was determined to bring him back, even if it meant he had to sacrifice himself. After taking HYDRA down, he's still determined to find Bucky. Natasha warns him it might not end how he wants, but Steve sees no other option. If he were in Bucky's place, he would do the same for him.
◎ Powers/Abilities:
Steve was given a super soldier serum known to improve everything about a person. This means everything from his intellect to his physical abilities are heightened.
Most notably increased is his strength. He is able to bend metal, lift heavy object, throw strong punches, and so on. Rather than using something like a gun, he relies heavily on his combat skills. He's fast and agile, able to jump and climb with ease, as well as dodge and return attacks quickly. He's intelligent and able to plan strategically in the middle of stressful situations, as well as adapt and work with things he may not be familiar with. His senses are more heightened, allowing him to hone in on enemies quicker. He's more durable and is harder to injure. When he is injured, he's able to keep going for longer and heals faster than a normal person. His metabolism is higher than most people's, being stated as four times faster, meaning he has higher energy levels, but he also needs more food to keep him going and can't get drunk. He can speak multiple languages, notably English and French, though it's within reason to assume he familiar with the other languages he encountered during WWII. He's an artist as well, spending the years before the war in an art school.
With his shield, he's able to throw it with great strength and speed to knock out enemies. He's very accurate with his throws, as he is with gun when he does use them. This shield is definitely not just a defensive item and is used to bash and knock aside enemies as he fights in close combat.

◎ Third-Person Sample:
This whole situation didn't sit well with Steve.
Being trapped was uncomfortable. Sitting still wasn't his style. But from what CERES and everyone else he spoke to told him, that was what he was supposed to do. He was supposed to live his life here to aid in saving their worlds.
But sitting still wasn't his life. He was a soldier. He needed to do something. And knowing his world was in trouble, knowing there were monsters out there trying to destroy every planet?
No, sitting still wasn't an option.
And yet, what could he do? Play video games? He didn't like it, not one bit. Surely there was something. Sure, there were jobs for everyone around the city, but he wasn't sure he'd be able to keep his sanity in a desk job. Paperwork never bothered him, sure, but when there was trouble out there, trouble he could help with? He would much rather take on aliens anyday than sit behind a desk.
It would be different if this was before he brought down HYDRA. It felt like years ago, when he had been talking to Sam about quitting SHIELD. So much had changed in a very short time. Now he had a mission, now he had a goal to strive for. Being here, being trapped.. he felt like a sitting duck, while out there, somewhere was Bucky. He reminded himself that he would do anything to save him, to save everyone, even if that meant sitting around and letting CERES do their job. That was just much easier said than done. He could be patient, but there was only so long even his patience would last when it came to doing nothing.
He couldn't deny that this weird reality had it's perks, though.
Peggy... It wasn't like she was someone he never expected to see again, but.. young? And with no memories of how time separated them? It was never easy to see her. Visiting her at her nursing home always hurt so much, but she meant the world to him. No amount of time could change that. So seeing her here, it was...strange. He wasn't sure if this was a second chance, or just a taunt of what could've been, but he knew one thing: if there was anyone in any time that he'd rather be stuck in a mess with, it was her.

With his shield, he's able to throw it with great strength and speed to knock out enemies. He's very accurate with his throws, as he is with gun when he does use them. This shield is definitely not just a defensive item and is used to bash and knock aside enemies as he fights in close combat.

This whole situation didn't sit well with Steve.
Being trapped was uncomfortable. Sitting still wasn't his style. But from what CERES and everyone else he spoke to told him, that was what he was supposed to do. He was supposed to live his life here to aid in saving their worlds.
But sitting still wasn't his life. He was a soldier. He needed to do something. And knowing his world was in trouble, knowing there were monsters out there trying to destroy every planet?
No, sitting still wasn't an option.
And yet, what could he do? Play video games? He didn't like it, not one bit. Surely there was something. Sure, there were jobs for everyone around the city, but he wasn't sure he'd be able to keep his sanity in a desk job. Paperwork never bothered him, sure, but when there was trouble out there, trouble he could help with? He would much rather take on aliens anyday than sit behind a desk.
It would be different if this was before he brought down HYDRA. It felt like years ago, when he had been talking to Sam about quitting SHIELD. So much had changed in a very short time. Now he had a mission, now he had a goal to strive for. Being here, being trapped.. he felt like a sitting duck, while out there, somewhere was Bucky. He reminded himself that he would do anything to save him, to save everyone, even if that meant sitting around and letting CERES do their job. That was just much easier said than done. He could be patient, but there was only so long even his patience would last when it came to doing nothing.
He couldn't deny that this weird reality had it's perks, though.
Peggy... It wasn't like she was someone he never expected to see again, but.. young? And with no memories of how time separated them? It was never easy to see her. Visiting her at her nursing home always hurt so much, but she meant the world to him. No amount of time could change that. So seeing her here, it was...strange. He wasn't sure if this was a second chance, or just a taunt of what could've been, but he knew one thing: if there was anyone in any time that he'd rather be stuck in a mess with, it was her.
