Role-Playing Notes: IRON MAN Hero

Real Name: Anthony "Tony" Stark. Occupation: Inventor, industrialist. Identity: Secret. Legal Status: Citizen of the United States with no criminal record. Other Aliases: None. Place of Birth: Long Island, New York. Marital Status: Single. Known Relatives: Howard, Sr. (grandfather, deceased), Howard, Jr. (father, deceased), Maria (mother, deceased), Morgan (cousin). Group Affiliation: Avengers. Base of Operations: New York City; Silicon Valley, California. First Post-Reboot Appearance: INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #1. History: Anthony Stark, only son of industrialist Howard Stark, discovered his technical prowess at a very young age. A child prodigy, by the age of 21 he had graduated M.I.T. with multiple Masters of Engineering degrees. During the early days of the War on Terrorism, Tony enlisted in the United States Army, and was assigned to a unit in Afghanistan. While there, he made friends with helicopter pilot Jim Rhodes. Tony told Rhodes that if he ever got tired of the military that he would be more than willing to hire him (see Rhodes, Jim). While on patrol in the Afghanistan mountains, Tony's convoy was ambushed and Tony taken prisoner by a group of foreign fighters who called themselves the Ten Rings (see Ten Rings). During the ambush, however, shrapnel entered Tony's heart; only the efforts of a man named Yinsen, also a captive of the Ten Rings, enabled Tony to survive. While in captivity, the Ten Rings attempted to coerce Tony into building newer advanced weapons for them. Tony built first a miniaturized arc reactor, based off the design of the larger prototype powering the SI Los Angeles plant, to power an electromagnet keeping the shrapnel out of his heart. The arc reactor in his chest, however, was only a stepping stone in his plan; with Yinsen's help, he built a suit of armor – the Iron Man Mk I suit – which was powered off the reactor. Finding out that his father had died while he was overseas (Tony's mother had died years before), Tony was determined to keep the family company, Stark Industries, out of his amoral and corrupt cousin Morgan's hands (see Stark Industries; Stark, Morgan). Morgan Stark wasn't thrilled to learn that Tony had devised a means of cheating death. Using her underworld contacts, she placed a contract on Tony's life. Tony first learned of this when Stark Industries security personnel apprehended an assassin who had infiltrated the SI electronics plant he was touring. Using the suit he'd devised in Afghanistan as a base, Tony built a more advanced suit of Iron Man armors for his own protection and as a means of tracking down the person responsible for this price on his head. Upon learning that Morgan Stark was responsible, Tony, as Iron Man, was responsible for bringing her to justice. The assassination contracts were quickly removed once Morgan's assets were seized, preventing her from paying. Publicly, Iron Man is Stark's personal bodyguard. Only Jim Rhodes, who has recently accepted Tony's offer of employment, is aware that Stark and Iron Man are one and the same. While most of his time is spent in California, Iron Man is a founding member of the Avengers, who are based in New York (see Avengers). Height: 6' 1" Weight: 225 lbs Eyes: Blue Hair: Black Uniform: Typically, a metallic red armored torso, metallic red and gold arms and legs, metallic red gloves, metallic red boots, metallic red helmet with metallic gold faceplate. The Mark I armor was mostly a plain gunmetal gray. Some of the variant armors are red and silver, black and silver, gold and silver, or, in the case of the stealth armor, pure black. Strength Level: Tony Stark possesses the normal human strength of a man his age, height, and build who engages in moderate regular exercise. The Iron Man suit he wears increases his strength to enable him to lift (press) around 70 tons. Known Superhuman Powers: None. Other Abilities: Tony Stark is a noted inventor of ultra-tech weaponry and electronics. Disabilities: Tony Stark's heart has been damaged by shrapnel, and he has a mechanical unit surgically implanted which works off his implanted miniaturized arc reactor to pump the blood instead of his heart, which has since stopped. He is currently on the waiting list for a suitable transplant. Weapons: The Iron Man armor worn by Tony Stark possesses three main built-in weapons. The first are what he calls 'repulsors', which are short-range weapons built into the palms of the armor (originally intended as a kind of flight stabilizer). Paraphernalia: The Iron Man armor Tony wears is capable of sustaining a tremendous amount of damage, is able to fly through rockets in the boots at speeds up to Mach 2, enables him to see in both the infrared and ultraviolet ranges, has a built-in radar permitting him to track 9 objects at once, has a coating which absorbs radar waves, has a holographic emitter which enables him to remain hidden warping light around him, and has an internal air supply of 12 hours. The armor can even be controlled via remote- control for short periods of time, usually when Stark and Iron Man have to appear in public together. Tony is constantly updating his armor.

Stark Industries is a multinational corporation which is the leading Stark Industries producer of advanced electronics and structural materials in the Mission Statement: world. Founded in 1936 by industrialist Howard Stark, Sr., SI grew to be one of the top military contractors in the United States during Capabilities World War II, producing munitions, motorcycles, halftracks, and TL: Members: 175,000 tanks for Allied troops. Following World War II, the company Wealth: expanded to where today it is considered one of the largest Contacts: multinational corporations in the world, with operations in every Member Traits: industrialized nation. Notable Resources: In the 1970s, control of SI passed to Howard Stark, Jr., who while Reaction-Time Modifier: maintaining the military contracts attempted to diversify SI's nature, entering the energy and consumer electronics industries. It was under the younger Howard Stark's leadership that SI invented the ARC Costs and Values reactor, a nearly self-perpetuating renewable energy generator, though Startup Cost: $ Resource Value: $ some leaders inside SI saw it as nothing more than a cost-ineffective Patron Value: Enemy Value: science project and shelved it after building the prototype, which still Ally and Dependent Value: powers the SI Los Angeles industrial complex. Stark Industries suffered a loss recently with Howard's death, and Social Attributes for a time it looked like control of the company would pass to Type: Loyalty: Howard's ambitious and amoral niece Morgan after his son, Tony, CR: was severely injured while serving in Afghanistan with the US Army Rank: (see Iron Man; Stark, Morgan). Tony, however, has proven to have Income Range: $. the famed Stark family genius intellect, surpassing his father and Reputation: grandfather, and has cheated death several times while secretly creating his dual identity as Iron Man. Tony has created a separate Notes non-profit foundation named after his mother – the Maria Stark Foundation – to help fund the Avengers, of which he as Iron Man is a member, independent of his own fortune or standing with the company (see Avengers). Under Tony's leadership, SI has nearly eliminated its weapons manufacturing division, which has led some members of SI's board of directors to question his intentions and leadership, especially has Tony has refused to move a lot of the manufacturing overseas to nations with cheaper labor. However, as long as SI continues to show a profit, all they can legally do is complain. This has, however, created a bit of a power vacuum among arms manufacturers for military contracts, which has led to increased competition from Hammer Industries and Advanced Idea Mechanics (see AIM; Hammer, Justin). Tony has increased SI's presence in the energy business, reducing the size and cost while increasing the output of the ARC reactor design. ARC reactors have been built to power the Long Island, New York, and Dallas, Texas, manufacturing plants, as well as the Baxter Building, headquarters of the Fantastic Four (see Baxter Building; Fantastic Four). This has put them in direct conflict with Roxxon Energy Company, one of the oldest and most successful oil companies in the world (see Roxxon Energy). Stark has recently fought off a hostile takeover from Roxxon. It has recently been revealed that Howard's death and the incident in Afghanistan in which Tony was nearly killed was masterminded as a plot between Morgan Stark and Obadiah Stane, who sits on SI's board of directors (see Stane, Obadiah). Tony, however, remains unaware of this link. Stark Industries maintains cordial relations with companies such as General Motors, Lockheed-Martin, and Worthington Enterprises, often collaborating with these companies by providing advanced electronics and materials (see Angel). Among the projects that have resulted from this collaboration are the Avengers Quinjet, the X-Men's Van and Jet, and the Fantastic Four's starship, the Fantastic (see Avengers Quinjet; The Fantastic; X-Men; X-Men's Jet; X-Men's Van).
