Presentation: Peggy presents herself as capable, collected, and very confident in what she does and what she knows. She has a tough, often exasperated demeanor, that makes men and women often skirt around her. Despite all that nonsense, she's quite definitely a lady. She wears her hair perfectly curled and her make up is always applied first thing in the morning. She knows how to command and keep people's attention, and coincidentally how to scare them on a basic level. She's dangerous, but easily presents herself as somewhat approachable.
She was a spy for Great Britain first and foremost and she knows how to play a role when one is tossed at her. Those who know this might have difficulties in processing the differences and what is real and what is fake.
Those she trusts most know her for who she is. She is mostly that calm, confident woman who can easily punch a man in the face or shoot someone in the knee. She is intelligent and quick-witted which has frequently saved her life and the lives of those around her. She doesn't take sass from anyone, and if annoyed, she takes no pains to hide the fact from you.
Motivations: Peggy is a chronic worrier. She often feels as if her place within the SSR and her position with the US Army is tenuous at best and only truly solid because Captain America likes her. This is why she works as hard as she does, never stopping to second guess herself and keeps moving onward because if she stops to reflect upon certain circumstances in her life the worry and regret may bog her down indefinitely. Especially killing her mother's ambitions to have her settle down, instead taking after her father and engaging in a military career where so few women had before.
Steve Rogers was the first man she ever loved. He wasn't like any man in the military she had ever known. He had a huge heart, a large amount of gumption and a smile that could make her toes curl. A part of her is glad he never got to know how deeply she felt for him, not because he would take advantage of something she felt was a minor weakness, but because he wouldn't. He would have been nearly too perfect for her and that was always a heady feeling. Once he understood how capable she was, he treated it as a fact and didn't try to keep her from joining in the fight.

Prose: It wasn't amusing the first time the bizarrely dressed guards had informed her of where she was. It didn't become any more entertaining when they told her what she was about to do. Peggy bristled as she was hustled into the windowless room, pulling from their hands before they could continue to push her along like cattle.
"I don't suppose you have a gun I could use," she asked, first to her escorts and then the ladies and gentlemen on the elevated platform. It was a rather useless question. From the amount of planning and detail put into place, they wouldn't leave a deadly weapon for their participants to use against them. Or at least not one that could do an enormous amount of damage.
Prove herself, they had told her. Impress them and you will be rewarded for it later. Now how the bloody hell was she meant to do that in an empty gymnasium with no one to fight against? She doubted any of the well-dressed people watching her would be willing to have their perfectly sculpted faces punched in, though the urge to act on that impulse was large.
Peggy drummed her fingers against her hips and eyed the line-up before her. She had been in life or death situations before, but this time she was woefully unprepared for it.
What is your character scored: Peggy scores a 7.
