History[]
Family Smarts[]
Howard Stark, Tony's father, was an incredibly intelligent man, although lacked common sense. Because of this, he'd often test his experiments on himself, sometimes with disastrous consequences. One of these experiments involved altering his own genetics in an attempt to reproduce the results of Captain America. Although it increased his strength by very little, it made him much more intelligent. These genetic changes were passed onto Tony, who proved to be even more intelligent than his father, who became jealous of his son. This led to him being a neglectful father, as he would often refuse to spend time with his son. Maria Stark took care of Tony, and they developed a strong mother-son bond.
In the War[]
During a weapons demonstration in Vietnam, Tony and the attendants were attacked by members of the Ten Rings terrorist organisation. Tony was taken prisoner, and forced to build weapons for the them, using old Stark Industries missiles and bombs as parts.
Iron Man is Born[]
The Avengers[]
Abilities[]
Genius-Level Intellect: Tony has been described as one of the most intelligent people on the planet. This is because his father altered his own genetics, which he then passed onto Tony.
Skilled Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Since returning home after his kidnapping, Tony has learned how to handle himself in a fight.
Armours[]
- Mark I: The armour built by Tony while imprisoned. It's built from pieces of Stark Industries weapons, and the realisation of just how dangerous these weapons are is what pushed Tony to change Stark Industries to StarkTech, and cease the production of weapons.
- Mark VIII - Renaissance: The 'revolutionary' armour, it had vastly enhanced strength compared to previous models, and had much smoother flight. It was also the first armour that utilised the power of the Arc Reactor in Tony's chest, meaning it didn't need to be recharged during uses.
- Mark XVI - Excedunt Velocitas: The latest model armour, designed to have immense speed, without losing the incredible strength. It's the first armour capable of being summoned remotely, through implants in Tony's body.
