Captain Marvel (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

"I've been fighting with one hand tied behind my back. What happens when I'm finally set free?"

- Carol Danvers to Yon-Rogg.

Carol Danvers, also known as Captain Marvel, is a superheroine who is the eponymous titular main protagonist of the 2019 superhero film Captain Marvel and will reappear as the one of main protagonists of Avengers: Endgame. An Air Force lieutenant turned Colonel, Danvers had ran afoul of the despotic alien race the Kree. A Tesseract-powered explosion gave her vast cosmic powers, thus she became Captain Marvel.

She is portrayed by Academy Award winning actress Brie Larson, who also portrayed Mason Weaver in Kong: Skull Island, and Envy Adams in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.

Military Service and Gaining her Powers
Carol would join the United States Air Force, and befriend Maria Rambeau, and became her daughter's godmother, Monica. Danvers would meet Dr. Wendy Lawson, and became a contributor to Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. on the Light-Speed Engine. During one test flight, both her and Lawson were struck down by unknown assailants. Lawson informed Danvers of who she was, and attempted to destroy the engine, but was killed by the assailant. When Carol went to destroy the engine herself, it exploded, and she absorbed its powers and was knocked unconscious.

The assailants were Starforce, a Kree unit led by Yon-Rogg, who decided to take Danvers as she could be some use since she absorbed the energy. She was taken to Hala where Yon-Rogg transfused his blood into her, and placed a Photon Inhibitor to suppress her powers and memories. Danvers was told that she was a Kree that had amnesia due to a Skrull attack, and went by the name "Vers" due it being the last letters on her damaged dog tag.

Call for Help
"Where is Fury?"

- Captain Marvel to the Avengers. Nick Fury would send a call for help to Danvers after Thanos successfully collected all of the infinity stones, and decimate half of the entire universe. Receiving the message, Danvers returned to Earth and located the page at the New Avengers Facility, where she meets the few survivors: Captain America, Black Widow, Hulk, and War Machine. Danvers entered the facility and encountered the Avengers, asking them where Fury was.
