Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; but we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph.

First Impressions

Hopes are high that he will be a successful operative. I believe, because he walks and talks just like them, because he exudes "America" with his every breath, that the enemy will never see him coming.

Bucky is a dark-haired man in his early thirties with a quarterback's build and a John Q. Public smile. He has no obvious scars or tattoos except a giant metal arm, which he can hide use fancy metal arm technology to make appear as a normal limb. If I don't specify, feel free to have your character can notice the arm, or not, depending on what seems most fun. He lets his hair get long when he hates himself, it's like a really greasy mood ring.

Bucky is a natural extrovert and in his better moments can hold a conversation with a stranger. He can also be terse and glowering. He is a career soldier and carries himself like it. Bucky often sticks his hands in his pockets, but when he doesn't he can make big expressive gestures with his hands.

Bucky's fashion sense is conservative and uninteresting, and he favors neutral tones and long sleeves. He speaks with a American accent with no particular regional tells, the result of an Army brat background. He drops his g's a lot in comics but I don't always write that out in rp— you can assume his diction ain't great.

Abilites

FIGHTING AND STUFF. Bucky's been trained to perform non-logical feats of acrobatics and punching since he was a teenager. He is a master of unarmed combat, various weapons, and has previously kicked machine-gun wielding gorillas in the face.

SPYING. Even during WWII, this Bucky was a scout and infiltration specialist. In the modern day he's spent time working as an off-the-books operative for SHIELD and Nick Fury. He can speak at least four languages, and is very good at getting himself captured on purpose.

ROBOARM. The robolimb is on it's fifth or sixth upgrade by now— it's listed as being able to lift two tons. It also carries EMP pulses, some kind of electroshock jolt effect, and he can control it mentally when it is detached from his body. Comics.

INFINITY FORMULA. This is a dangling plotline, hooray! Maybe Bucky doesn't age anymore, maybe he will begin to rapidly age into a husk of himself in a few months time!!

ABILITY TO OPERATE A SMARTPHONE. Aw yeah modern technology.
