Reputation
Clint Barton has the ability to 'play with the big boys', as it were. His self-taught archery skills are virtually unrivaled, and his ability to think on his feet gives him that added advantage to stay alive and sometimes one step ahead.
Biography
Having lost his parents in a car accident when he was young, Clint and his brother Bernard (Barney) were sent to a foster home. That didn't last long, however, when the two ran away to join a circus. Carnival, really, by the name of Carson Carnival of Traveling Wonders. It was there that the young Clint learned the art of archery and acrobatics from a man who took specific interest in his training.
Clint was an eager student, but somewhere along the line he was also instilled with a streak of 'right'. He discovered his mentor was stealing from the carnival, and he would be the one to stop him. He had been offered half the take, but still the answer was 'no' and a fight ensued. Unlike most stories, this one doesn't end with the young Clint victorious, but rather, he was beaten and left for dead. His brother also left with this mentor in complete disbelief that his brother could be so stupid as to not take the cash!?
A few more years pass, and another stepped in to help teach Clint, and even offered to take the young man with him on a raid of a 'bad guys' hideout'. He went willingly, but after the fight, realized that his brother was within, and that he'd injured his brother critically. That.. that was the final straw, and Clint Barton struck out on his own.
Along the way, he's found himself on the 'good' side and sometimes the 'bad', but always on his terms.

Character Details
He's good. He knows he's good. He's the best, and the moment he misses that shot? He's done. Until then, however?
| Archery |
| Clint is a natural archer, and is mostly a self-taught archery master. He can make his own bows, his own arrows, including his specialty arrows (though some do require some help). |
| Athleticism |
| He's in top, HUMAN peak physical form. This does include remarkable eyesight, however it is not above normal human range. He's simply trained to know what to look for. |
| Acrobatics |
| Having been raised in a carnival, Clint does have some ability to maneuver, to drop, roll, and shoot an arrow all at the same time. |
| Driving |
| Clint is fond of driving motorcycles, but can also fly aircraft and has been called upon to do it in the past. |
| Thrown Weapons |
| This list includes but is not limited to knives, axes and boomerangs. He has also been known to improvise for weapons, and is equally as proficient. |
| Combat |
| While not as good with a gun as with a bow, Clint isn't too bad a shot. Same with a sword, but again… not his first weapon of choice. Unarmed combat, he can hold his own, thanks to training. Again, he much prefers distance. |
| Street smarts |
| Clint has contacts on the street after living and fighting in the gutter with them. Also can identify the 'tells' of the average punk when they're up to no good or when they're just bored. |
| Bow |
| Clint's bow is a specialized weapon. It can contract into something that can be easily hidden, only to reform as a futuristic-looking recurve with a push of a button. It has a master control for his quiver. At a 250# pull, there are very few who can draw it and use it effectively. |
| Quiver |
| Not only a receptacle for arrows, but also where his piles remain, waiting to be dialed up and attached to shafting on demand. |
| SHIELD |
| He's got access to most of SHIELD's arsenal, fleet of vehicles and safehouses. |
| Deaf |
| Due to a mission, Clint is 80% deaf. He does have a corrective device (hearing aid), however. But without it, one will have to talk loudly, or just not bother. :) |
| Criminal Record |
| Some may not trust him as he does have something of a rap sheet. Clint is always trying to be sure that when he does something good, that it doesn't go unnoticed. |
| Normal in a Sea of Supers |
| Normal operation means that he is running with 'the big boys', and all he has is his wits and his basic, God-given abilities. As a result, he has to fight feelings of inadequacy. |
| Loner |
| Clint does like his time away from everything, referring to his departure from human contact as retiring to his 'nest'. |

Notes |
 |
Bobbi |
Ex-wife |
Ex-wife. It's been something of a rollercoaster with her. For the time being, I think we're on an even track. Brought her into the JL:A, though gotta say after the hell she put me through about it, she surprised me with asking about getting in. Score one for the good guys! |
 |
Kate |
Girlfriend |
Student, protege, friend. Don't like to admit it, but she's pulled me out of a few fires. Then again, I've done the same… but that's my job. Slowly discovering, after everything that's been going on, that I can't lose her. I'm just hoping now that she's met 'the family' and worked with them, she's not going to give up. It's a rough crowd, but she's pretty strong. |
 |
Hill |
The boss' boss |
Someone who can send my ass back to Turkey and eat more goat eyes. Still, it's good to know that she's got my back- pretty sure she does. Though, there was that time, once… |
 |
'Tash |
Co-Worker |
Partner and best friend. Not so much 'partner' at the moment, but I'll always be there when she calls, picking up where we left off. |
 |
Detective Manning |
Work contact |
Man's good at what he does. Nice to have a contact in the NYPD. And now I owe him Chinese. |
 |
Evelyn |
Good acquaintance |
Someone I can work with. Seems to be doing well in SHIELD. I'm glad. Making friends, influencing people. Like Stark. |
 |
Annie |
Acquaintance |
Clerk at the store. Has helped me in the past with tips. She claims (WRONGLY!) that I tried to get her killed. For the record, I didn't. |
 |
Domino |
Not a positive acquaintance |
Someone I should definitely kill at one point. Just for my sanity. Okay, maybe not kill. Maybe. |
Quotes
"I mean, I can't miss… I'm on a team with super-humans. And one god, in case you've forgotten. Even you… well, you climb walls really well… I gave up a lot for this life. I could have been happy with Mockingbir— Bobbi. We could have had a good, simple life. But I wanted to play with the big boys. And if I miss, it means I'm just another dude with a bow. It means I've been fooling myself this whole time. And that's why I never miss."
