Sharon Carter

Sharon Carter was initially guided by a strong moral compass and was not afraid to speak out when her ethics were challenged. She held a high opinion of and belief in Steve Rogers, due to stories of him passed down from her aunt and from how often the two would see each other due to her being assigned to watch over him. During this assignment, the two developed a romantic interest in one another, eventually sharing a kiss, and the two of them joking that it was "late". Because of this, she sided with him despite Rogers protecting the Winter Soldier whom the CIA she was working for by then was after and accepted the trouble she would be in for it.

Carter was in great awe of the life her aunt Peggy had lived; at Peggy's funeral, Carter mentioned a picture of Peggy standing next to JFK, describing it as "cool" but "a lot to live up to". Because of this, she never told anyone before the funeral that the two were related, but was nonetheless determined to follow in her footsteps, leading her into joining S.H.I.E.L.D.. She was loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D right up until its collapse following HYDRA's uprising, after which she joined the CIA.
