Name: Topanga Stark Codename: Iron Man Gender: Female Age: 25 Position/duties: Race: Mutate Powers: Genius (natural ability) Repulsor Tech node: can interact with different types of energies and forces a normal human cannot. The R.T. node acts like a new sense for its user. The reactor's excessive generation of energy provides Stark with an increased amount of intelligence (above natural ability) and gave her superhuman-level multitasking and learning capabilities. Energy Emanation: The R.T. node provides repulsor energy to run devices such as the Iron Man Armor. Magnetic Force-Field: The R.T. node creates a force-field which can be modified at will by its user by increasing the power of the Reactor incrementally. Electrical Fields Detection: As the R.T. node is connected to her, she can feel different electrical fields that the Reactor is picking up. This includes all kinds of invisible frequencies. Enhanced Senses: The reactor also increases the senses of its user. Enhanced Strength: The R.T. node allows who possesses it to have a greater strength. Enhanced Healing and Durability: It has been shown that an user of an R.T. node not only recovers incredibly fast from different types of injuries but also to resist more physical damage than an average human. Iron Man Armor Personality: Publically she is a spoiled bitch who has very loose morals such as posing for Playboy, the release of several sex tapes. She is also hated as the face of Stark International since they create weapons. Privately she prefers to do nothing more than build and work as Iron Man. Why did you join?: To investigate them. Preferred method of using powers: Large explosions History: At an early age it became apparent that Topanga was not like the other kids. She was constantly acting out in school because she was bored they tried drugs such as Ritalin because she "suffered" from ADHD. Several years later after being held back by her diagnosis and the drugs they realized the truth she was a genius and bored. Shortly after that she was entering the world of college but that to was boring. Her father's company was in the industry of weapons development that she found interesting, especially the explosions. When Topanga was nineteen she developed the latest generation of Stark missile technology. While in Afghanistan demonstrating the new missile technology the site was attacked by Taliban forces. She was perfectly fine but her personal assistant Pepper was critically wounded, while trying to help Pepper they were both kidnapped. Topanga had a burst of inspiration and created a new device to keep Pepper alive and with the help of a NATO surgeon who had also been kidnapped implanted the device in Pepper She then created a suit of armor, it was rudimentary and crude. Pepper piloted the armor because it required the device in her body to power it. As Pepper fought her way out Topanga built a bomb to destroy the base. After the destruction of the base Topanga and Pepper went to the nearest military base after destroying the armor. Back home Topanga began work on studying the device she built and the effect it has on the human body. She wanted to make sure that it wouldn't eventually kill or harm Pepper. After discovering the amazing abilities it was capable of beyond its ability to keep Pepper alive. Working in secret they built a new armor, it used the latest state of the art technology, Pepper again piloted the armor. One day while testing the newest improvement, Pepper picked up a transmission about an officer in trouble she felt compelled to help. This became routine Pepper would go out saving the day while Topanga was the one who fixed, repaired, and invented the gadgets Pepper used. Eventually the news dubbed Pepper as the Iron Man. One day Pepper bit off more than she could chew going against Titanium Man. Pepper was paralyzed at the C4 vertabrae. Unable to do anything for herself Pepper slipped into a deep depression, she eventually gave up on life and just slowly slipped away. Topanga tried everything but was forced to watch her best friend slowly die. Topanga's undiagnosed genetic defect that made her heart weak plus the rage she suffered from put such a strain on her heart that it gave out. In the hospital she was transplanted with an experimental artificial heart, while good enough for everyday use it was not good enough for what Topanga planned to do. Topanga began designing a new heart one that was powered by a Repulsor Tech node. Once she had her new heart she began working on a new armor, not just another updated version of the Iron Man armor, this was a ground up redesign that was designed to be a war machine. Titanium Man was going to pay for destroying Pepper's soul. The threat of Titanium Man was permanently ended, through the paralyzation of Justin Hammer, the hostile takeover of Hammer Industries. Justin Hammer began selling to anyone with a large enough checkbook the secrets to his Titanium Armor, so began the Armor War, which went on for years because once the secret got out it spread like wildfire. Topanga was forced to enlist the aid of S.H.I.E.L.D. for the price of armor for an elite task force. Once the Armor Wars ended the War Machine armor was retired. While investigating the disappearance of mutants around the globe she came in contact with The Order of Heracles. She doesn't trust them one little bit. Other: No one knows the identity of Iron Man. All anyone knows is that a mechanical construct comes in to save the day.
