Flashback: Captain America suffers from flashbacks of losing his partner during a pursuit of criminals on an airplane. His partner was thrown from the plane, but managed to hang on to the door. Captain America was inches short of being able to reach him before his partner was blown off the plane, falling nearly 50,000 feet to his death. To this day, situations like this one cause this to reemerge. Not only does he have this flashback, but he is also reluctant to even fly...if other transportation is available.

John Walker was born in the New Jersey area. He came from a long line of police officers and he followed suit. Being a firm believer in truth and order made him an outstanding officer. His dedication to justice drove him to become a detective within two years on the force. Amazingly enough, John never drew his weapon the entire time he was on the job. He believed that proper planning and strength could offset the need for death. Death or killing was never an acceptable answer to bringing criminals to justice. While he isn't adverse to beating a villian senseles, he refuses to kill or stooping to the level of a criminal to accomplish his goals.

Upon his retirement from the police force, he spent some time as a private investigator in the Seattle area. It was there that he was approached by the UCAS Government concerning this project. After reading the profile that he was to be given, he accepted it immediately. The image of Captain America reflected all of his beliefs rolled into one image. He stood for truth, justice, and freedom. In addition, Captain America did not use deadly force to accomplish his goals. Instead he utilized his abilities and intelligence to acquire the same results.

Upon accepting the assignment, the UCAS Covert Operations removed all records of John Walker, virtually eliminating the fact that he ever existed. He was given a new identity, Steve Rogers. During training, he was issued a replica of Captain America's shield. Captain America is the assigned leader of this group.

Having been the first of the revived hero's Captain America had a lot to prove. His first assignment was to uncover a possible smuggling ring that was working to steal technology and smuggle it into the CAS and then onto the highest bidder. With the intelligence that was provided to him, Captain America infultrated the organization and exposed their current project to the UCAS FBI. During the final assault of the the smugglers, he doned the Captain America uniform and lead the raid. His actions were heroic and decisive in no Federal Agents being killed or injured. As this project was meant to do more than provide the goverment with superior agents, it was meant to raise public relations. This entire raid was filmed by the FBI and then highlights were released to the media. The next morning the name Captain America was everywhere. Some believed this was some type of gimmick or hype, but later found out how serious he was. Over the course of the next three or four months, Captain America made public appearances, visited schools, helped set up neighborhood security programs, and most importantly began operating as Captain America. In the first six months he made over forty arrests, mostly against street level criminals. As the heat against Captain America from the criminals began to rise, the rest of the team was put into action. It is believed that the Yakuza or one of the Seoulpa Rings has taken out a contract on Captain America.

**Special Equipment**
Shield: Captain America's shield was designed by the UCAS Special Equipment Magical Division. It is comprised of various strong metals, and includes orichalcum. The shield has effectively become a Weapon Focus with a force of 4. As it provides a Ballistic Rating of 6, it also is well cushioned to provided an Impact Rating of 8. The shield was aerodynamically designed to be thrown as a weapon and in the proper hands acts like a boomerang, returning to or near the thrower. Throwing Damage of the shield is STR +4L. The Shield can also be used in melee combat with a Damage Code of STR +2M. When used in melee, the user can control whether the damage inflicted is STUN or PHYSICAL. Uniform: The uniform issued to Captain America was identical to the one worn by the legendary superhero of the last century. Unlike the chain-link armor of the original, this uniform is made with strong polymers that are woven in such a way as to not interfere with his movements or athletics. It is also light enough to not have much of an encumbrance. It provides an armor rating of B/A 6/4. Pocket Secretary: A credit card sized combination pocket secretary and telephone. It has 50 MP of storage space and all the features of a normal pocket secretary. This card also serves as an official identification for Captain America. To use the card, fingerprint and/or voice identification is needed.
