Meme: More Than Meets the Eye

We haven't done this since August and I'm curious about other people's characters since details like this often slip by the wayside after you've been IG forever.

There are certain characteristics about the people we play that *we* know, but we get tired of repeating in every introductory ping. There's also stuff that players wouldn't really be able to figure out just looking at an icon--how tall someone is, if they have an accent, what kind of clothes they are wearing...and in some cases, if their eyes/hair/whatever are different than the PB we've picked.

So wax poetic about what your characters look/sound like, if they have tics or scars, if they have a distinct singing voice, etc!


I'm personally especially curious about how characters sound. I've been floored by "oh man, their voice is way deeper than I thought" when getting into your canons sometimes.

Steve Rogers

[personal profile] heroic_jawline 2021-04-07 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
-Born in 1918. His trip through MCU canon is currently somewhere in 2015, so Steve is 97 and also 31-ish.
-He's 6'2" with blond hair and blue eyes (with a little bit of green in them. Zemo, you weirdo, how closely were you looking at those pictures.) Thanks to the super-serum, he is also strong enough to throw a motorcycle and then lap you a couple times around the island during his daily morning runs.
-Carries himself like a soldier. Has posture that makes you want to sit up straighter.
-Has a fairly generic American accent, though he gets a little Boston Brooklyn when he's feeling vulnerable. He also can put on some fake-heartiness when he's being Captain America, as evidenced in these PSAs.
-Tony has been steadily "losing" Steve's pleated khakis and plaid shirts, so Steve's generally in jeans (or nice pants, if he's teaching). His shirts are always a half-size too tight. If he's in his dress uniform, he has enough medals on it to be extremely daunting to anyone who knows how to read them.
-In the Captain America uniform (He's now in the Age of Ultron version but he still has his dark blue one for stealthy missions), he's got a dark blue helmet, extremely shielded but easy-to-move in (thanks, Tony) jumpsuit, and the absolutely iconic shield that he throws around like someone who absolutely nailed it in trig.
-Because he's so good at the angles, maybe never let him try to play pool with you for money.
-Wears a wedding band on his left hand.
