Powers And Abilities
Strengths:
Bruce: Genius level intellect, science-person. Bruce knows how to use his brain. His way of solving things is usually science, which he dedicated his life to. Though, he doesn't possess much of a physical strength. Bruce is as strong as what his age and build can allow him, which isn't much. He knows pretty much nothing about how to fight. That isn't his way of doing things anyway, since he spent a good portion of his life in labs. But again he isn't really a hero to begin with. He has little power on controlling the Hulk. While he can't exactly control him, he can give Hulk an aim; if he focuses enough.
Hulk: He enters the scene, when science fails. The green beast possesses raw and brutal strength. He can jump really high or even big distances. His skin is really strong, bullets will bounce off. He even can take missiles to the face and still won't die. (He'll get more aggravated, though. And maybe slow down to a level.) Always angry, always in need of attacking things. Hulk will go berserk for the most part, when he's out.
Weaknesses:
Bruce: He prefers to keep his calm, so we can easily say he has an inner fight going on twenty-four/seven. He isn't a strong man and he doesn't like the idea of people relying on Hulk, because he cannot control the green guy. He doesn't remember what he does as Hulk neither. Bruce may seem exhausted a lot of times, because he really is. Trying to contain himself isn't an easy job. Though, he cannot be killed as a human that easily. Any big threat toward Bruce will end up awakening Hulk.
Hulk: Has the intelligence of a three years old kid. He will understand easy and short commands, but trying to communicate him with complicated words and long sentences will fail badly. He's always out of control, that's why he is more of a wild card. He has issues about separating friend from foe since he sees everything as a potential threat. He can even hurt innocent people and won't notice he has done wrong. He has a very big build, so small and tight places will slow him down. But he'll end up smashing things up in the end. Stopping him isn't an easy job and very limited, depending on to sources. Very high dose of sedatives may work on him and stop him or at least make him dizzy/disorientated. SHIELD also built a container to trap him.
Weapons And Equipment:
Bruce: Science. His brain. Combination of these two. Not exactly real weapons.
Hulk: He's pretty much of a living weapon.
Personal Information
Personality:
Bruce: Smart, hard-working, sarcastic, reserved, calm outside... But really exhausted and angry inside. Bruce believes in making himself useful for humanity this or that way. Even becoming Hulk didn't change his goals. But of course, he's more careful now. As careful as a time-bomb can be. He works really hard to keep himself calm and in control. He cares for people a lot, even if he doesn't know them. But whenever he feels himself being a threat for others, Bruce prefers to isolate is self from the world until he is calmer. He looks very raggy since he doesn't have an organised life anymore. He doesn't have a house, a job, friends; if we don't count Avengers. But are they really friends? That depends, most likely. He has his bad days just like any other people. He doesn't want to jump into conclusions without analyzing facts carefully.
Hulk: Other than being aggressive and violent all the time, he acts like a child, because he has the intelligence of a three years old kid. He's just a very lethal version. He will attack anyone at his sight, yet he can recognise really important faces Bruce knows. He's uncontrollable. He isn't good with communicating, but communication isn't on top of his priorities to begin with. He can speak only a few words. He mostly prefers groans, roars and other sounds like that. He doesn't understand long and complicated sentences. People will need to go very easy and simple on him. But it's better just to stay away from his way. He cannot separate friends from foes easily. It's because Hulk doesn't understand the concept of being friends. He acts on impulse and instincts, mostly lead by rage.
History:
Bruce Banner was experimenting to make humans immune to gamma radiation, but when testing the experiment on himself, he transformed into the Hulk and hospitalized his lover, Betty Ross and injured her father, General Thaddeus Ross (who was hoping Banner would perfect his serum in order to re-create a super-soldier serum). Now a fugitive from the United States Army, Banner works in a soft drink bottling factory in Brazil while attempting to find a cure for his condition with the help of an Internet friend known to him as "Mr. Blue". To prevent another transformation, Banner undergoes rigorous meditation and keeps his pulse at a steady level.
After Banner suffers a cut, a drop of his blood lands into a bottle of soft drink eventually drank by an ill-fated consumer. Following the event, Banner is compromised and General Ross sends Emil Blonsky and a special forces team to apprehend him. While trying to evade the special forces, Banner is attacked by thugs and becomes the Hulk. The Hulk fights off the thugs and the special forces team and escapes leaving Blonsky unharmed. Banner wakes up in Guatemala, dazed by the experience and eventually makes his way to the United States, where he sees that a now-recovered Betty is working at Culver University and is dating psychologist Doctor Leonard Samson. He also sees his old friend Stanley, a pizzeria owner, who gives him a job as a delivery boy. Banner uses this job to sneak past a Culver University security guard to continue his research. One night Betty visits the pizzeria, and sees Bruce, later reuniting with him. Chase continues and Banner ends up living as a fugitive, isolating himself from everyone else; especially Betty.
Once again on the run, Banner found a new direction for himself acting as an unregistered physician helping people in poverty-stricken slums. No longer obsessed with finding a cure for himself, he had gained peace of mind in helping others. One night while working, he found himself lured into a meeting with Natasha Romanoff, an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., who proposed a job for him helping S.H.I.E.L.D. with a dire emergency. Initially dubious, and suspecting that S.H.I.E.L.D. was really after his green alter ego, Banner resisted, but eventually he relented and agreed to Romanoff's request.
His assignment on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier was to track the location of the Tesseract, an object of limitless power that had fallen into the possession of Loki. He worked together on this project with Tony Stark, the industrialist also known as "Iron Man", and was introduced to others, who like himself, were also more than human. Almost immediately, the clash of personalities within this assembled group provided a constant source of tension for all and Banner was subjected to frequent reminders of his need to contain the beast within. When others of the group apprehended Loki, and the Asgardian was imprisoned on the carrier, the antagonism only got worse.
The Hulk finally boiled to the surface again when Clinton Barton, a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent under Loki's control, led an attack against the carrier. Explosions from the attack caused debris from the ceiling to rain down on Banner, injuring him and triggering the change. He first rampaged around the vessel hunting Agent Romanoff, before turning his attention on Thor on the hangar deck. Finally, a S.H.I.E.L.D. pilot in a fighter jet outside got his attention by shooting him through a window, causing the Hulk to leap out and fall.
Banner awoke in the blasted remnants of a warehouse and was immediately greeted by a lone security guard who offered him clothing. He was also relieved to learn that nobody else had been around when he crashed down.
Following disturbances into New York City, where Loki had opened a dimensional rift, Banner located his superhuman acquaintances assembling to counter the threat. Although they were wary of another transformation, they insisted that he would be a help. Banner obliged, triggering a controlled transformation, then together with the others, he turned his attention on the Chitauri invasion force pouring through the portal. The Hulk did indeed prove to be an asset to the group. Not only did he single-handedly kill the first of the Chitauri leviathans that came through the portal, he was an unstoppable force in dealing with individual alien warriors, and instrumental in capturing Loki.
Long after the battle was over, Banner, now back to normal again, gathered with the others to see off Thor and the captive Loki. The threat had been neutralized and for a time the world would have little need of its protectors. Banner and the remaining heroes said their goodbyes and parted company.

He didn't like tight places. It was almost like the walls were coming onto him, trapping him in an uncomfortable cage. While he never had any issues with being in claustrophobic places before, since that certain incident indoors seemed to trigger his stress level. But all was fine. He could control this much, as long as he didn't think on it too deeply. That was the key to mental relief: To keep his head clear and nice, not worrying about anything.
How easy was that?
He was thinking too much again.
Bringing his hand up to his forehead, the doctor wiped a bead of sweat right above his brow; then pushing his glasses up and closer to his face. A deep breath was what he took, as he closed his eyes for a mere moment. He was feeling better now. Calmer. Really.
Once he opened his eyes, he reached for the tablet on the white marble table and slid through the results of the previous test he ran before. He needed to reread and analyze facts and numbers to reach the ultimate decision. But he was somehow not satisfied with this. Something wasn't right in this. No. When there was doubt, he needed to redo the whole thing. That was what he always believed in due to his experiences.
The very decision could wait. Now he had to prepare everything and run this up. Not too quickly. Afterall, carefulness and rushing didn't go together well.
So Doctor Bruce Banner took another deep breath and got moving. At least, he was too focused on this test to think about anything else.
