Backstory: (Congressman James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes is a World War II veteran, former sergeant of the 107th Infantry Regiment, the best friend of Steve Rogers since childhood, and a founding member of the New Avengers. Barnes joined the United States Army following the attack on Pearl Harbor and was assigned to the 107th in 1943. His unit was captured by Hydra, where Barnes was injected with the Super Soldier Serum by Arnim Zola before was rescued by Rogers, who had become Captain America. Barnes was brainwashed and armed with a new cybernetic arm in order to become a super soldier assassin known as Winter Soldier. With his name pardoned, Barnes sought atonement for all his actions as the Winter Soldier. His attempts were interrupted when John Walker was made the next Captain America, and the Flag Smashers emerged to act against the GRC's efforts to handle the aftermath of the Blip. He and Sam Wilson would go on a mission to stop the Flag Smashers, working with Zemo and Sharon Carter. However, their mission was complicated by Walker's attacks, until Walker murdered a Flag Smasher over Battlestar's death. Barnes and Wilson were forced to defeat Walker to stop him from continuing to be Captain America. Barnes would then join Wilson and Walker in the final battle with the Flag Smashers, helping in their defeat and making amends with his past .By 2027, Barnes entered into politics and began a campaign to get elected into the United States Congress. Halfway through his term in Congress, he worked to gather incriminating information against Valentina Allegra de Fontaine for her upcoming impeachment hearing. This pitted Barnes against Valentina’s former assassins, although he would eventually work with them against de Fontaine. With them, he would go on to confront de Fontaine in the Watchtower, only to be forced to retreat by the genetically modified Sentry. As soon as New York was attacked by the Void, Barnes worked with his newfound team to stop the threat, letting themselves be engulfed by the void to aid Yelena Belova in trying to convince Sentry to fight the Void, his dark ego, for control. They eventually succeded and returned, where, in an attempt to confront de Fontaine, Barnes and the others were dubbed as the New Avengers.)

Name: (Ava Starr. Codename: Ghost) Hair: (longer, wavy dark brown style) Eyes: (green) Features: (tall, slender, and athletic, biracial mixed Nigerian (Black) and Norwegian (white) descent.) Personality: (resilience, deep-seated pain, and a guarded, pragmatic demeanor shaped by a lifetime of trauma and exploitation) Clothing: (Ghost suit) Backstory: (Ava Starr is the daughter of Elihas and Catherine Starr, and a founding member of the New Avengers. During her childhood, she gained the ability to render herself intangible and generate extreme amounts of power following a quantum accident which killed her parents. At a young age, S.H.I.E.L.D. began taking advantage of her powers, enlisting her as a stealth operative under the moniker of Ghost prior to Hydra's uprising. Under Bill Foster's care, Starr realized that she was slowly dying due to a lack of quantum energy, which she involuntarily harnessed. Within weeks of succumbing to her disease without a cure, Starr learned that a Quantum Tunnel had been created by Hank Pym and embedded into a portable lab. Her plans to absorb energy from the Quantum Realm conflicted with Pym's plans to rescue Janet van Dyne, whose survival in the Quantum Realm relied directly on the energy Starr sought to extract. Starr began making attempts to steal the lab by force, putting her in conflict with Ant-Man and Wasp. Upon her return, Janet transferred some of her quantum energy into Starr, stabilizing her affliction. With her pain healed, she went into hiding with Foster. On the run from fifteen nations, Starr found herself under the employment of Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, working as a shadow operative for O.X.E. When de Fontaine was faced with incoming impeachment, she sent Ghost and her other operatives to kill each other in an attempt to get rid of any incriminating evidence. Following a brief battle, where Ghost murdered Taskmaster, the group learned the truth and agreed to work together to escape. Ghost, now teamed with Yelena Belova, U.S. Agent, Red Guardian, and Winter Soldier, decided to take down de Fontaine and stop her plans to use Bob Reynolds as her own weapon. The team saved Manhattan from Void, and de Fontaine publicly declared them as the New Avengers.)
