The characters of ''[[Iron Man: Armored Adventures]]''.
 
== Team Iron Man ==
Line 6:
 
* [[Three Amigos]]
* [[Two Guys and Aa Girl]]
 
=== Anthony "Tony" Stark/[[Iron Man]] ===
Line 22:
* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]
* [[Genius Ditz]]
* [[Green -Eyed Monster]]: Is jealous of Pepper's friendship with Gene.
* [[The Hero]]
* [[Heroic BSOD]]
Line 32:
* [[Not So Different]]: He and Gene both have missing murdered parents, a lot of responsibilities, the same tendency to walk the line between hero and villain, and have a secret identity.
** He also has this with Black Panther for pretty much the same reasons, Rhodey even says that '''T''''Challa ''is'' '''T'''ony. Rhodey also points out the similarity between Tony and Dr. Doom (he seems to like doing this) so Gene and Doom are like each other and Tony/T'Challa... they should start a support group.
* [[Rich in Dollars, Poor In Sense]]
* [[Science Hero]]
* [[Super Strength]]: {{spoiler|With his Extremis upgrade, Tony can [[Bear Hug]] both Pepper ''and'' Rhodey hard enough to leave Rhodey short of breath.}}
Line 40:
* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Every time he gets new armor.
* [[Transhuman]]: {{spoiler|After injecting himself with Extremis, his body is enhanced to superhuman levels, and he gets technopathy to boot.}}
* [[Two Guys and Aa Girl]]: Tony, Rhodey, and Pepper. Tony, Gene, and Pepper.
* [[Unstoppable Rage]]: Combines it with doses of [[Tranquil Fury]].
* [[Wake Up, Go to School, Save Thethe World]]
* [[Wouldn't Hit a Girl]]
 
Line 62:
* [[Secret Keeper]]
* [[Team Mom]]: Lampshaded via his nickname.
* [[Top -Heavy Guy]]: The War Machine armor, with its vast and primarily shoulder-mounted armament.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Calls Tony out on his actions repeatedly, going so far as to tell Tony he's barely any better than the villains he's fighting in ''Seeing Red''.
 
=== Patricia "Pepper" Potts ===
Line 71:
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: The Betty to Whitney's Veronica.
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: She mentions offhand to Gene that she got a guy deported for espionage. When the {{spoiler|armor designs are stolen and sold to Stane and Hammer, Pepper suggests Tony steal them back or trash their companies trying amidst various angry growls}}.
* [[Breathless Non -Sequitur]]: She gets in quite a few of these during her ramblings.
* [[Brown Eyes]]
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]
Line 81:
* [[Genki Girl]]
* [[Girl Next Door]]
* [[Green -Eyed Monster]]: Is jealous of Tony's friendship with Whitney.
* [[I Want My Jetpack]]: Wants to join SHIELD for a jetpack. In the second season, she begs Tony for her own suit of armor.
* [[The Knights Who Say Squee]]: She does this over Tony, Gene, ''and'' SHIELD.
Line 111:
* [[Hair of Gold]]
* [[Hidden Depths]]
* {{spoiler|[[Laser -Guided Amnesia]]}}
* [[Little Miss Badass]]
* [[Lonely Rich Kid]]: Stane is predictably not the world's best father, so this is the natural result. Her only real friend is Tony, who often brushed her aside until he learned how troubled her home-life was.
Line 117:
* [[Morality Pet]]: For her father, Obadiah.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: May as well be, with how bad her father is. Her mother is likely gone, too.
* [[Rich Bitch]]: But one [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|with a heart of gold.]]
* [[The Rival]]: To Pepper.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: For Tony.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: The tomboy to Pepper's girly girl.
* [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]
Line 129:
 
* [[Alliterative Name]]
* [[A Day in Thethe Limelight]]: "Don't Worry, Be Happy"
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: He's surprisingly good with the Iron Man armor, though.
* [[Hidden Depths]]: He can identify classical music due to his mother being a concert cellist.
Line 143:
 
* [[Alliterative Name]]
* [[Hello, Attorney!]]
* [[Hot Mom]]
* [[Like Brother and Sister]]: With Howard Stark.
Line 165:
* [[Odd Friendship]]: With Obadiah Stane.
* [[Posthumous Character]]: Seen mostly in flashbacks after the plane crash. {{spoiler|Until he was revealed to be alive.}}
* [[Screw the Money, I Have Rules]]
* [[Skilled but Naive]]
* {{spoiler|[[Spared Byby the Adaptation]]: Though his survival is only revealed at the end of season 1.}}
* [[Survival Mantra]]: "Weapons don't solve problems, they only create more."
* [[We Hardly Knew Ye]]
* [[What You Are in Thethe Dark]]: Howard is a concerned parent and sworn pacifist in and out of the dark.
* [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: Far more than his son is.
 
=== T'Challa a.k.a. The [[Black Panther]] ===
Line 184:
* [[Determinator]]
* [[Diplomatic Impunity]]: Goes around attacking whoever he feels has wronged him and/or his country, using this trope to avoid punishment on the international stage.
* [[Don't You Dare Pity Me!]]: To Tony, very angrily.
* [[Heroic Self -Deprecation]]: Very much so.
* [[Heroic BSOD]]
* [[Hot -Blooded]]: Since his father was just murdered and he has none of the emotional support that Tony did, this isn't too surprising.
* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: T'Challa has no problem knocking people unconscious to get them out of his way and even threatened to reveal Tony's secret identity if he continues to interfere in Wakandan matters.
* [[Jumped At the Call]]: Since it gave him a shot at vengeance.
Line 196:
* [[Secret Public Identity]]: It's public knowledge that the Black Panther is the king of Wakanda, so T'Challa doesn't bother trying to hide it. He actually wears the suit (sans mask) in public during a press conference.
* [[Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism]]: Way over on the cynical side. Might be getting better, though.
* [[This Is Unforgivable!]]: Both murder and betraying your home country are this in his eyes.
* [[Thou Shalt Not Kill]]: He prefers to let his father's murderer face the ensuing Wakandan media circus rather than kill him.
* [[Tragic Hero]]
Line 206:
{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Mackenzie Gray}}
 
* [[Anti -Villain]]: Surprisingly, he has shades of Type I. While he is a [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] who's not above using illegal ways to reach his goals, he is still more of a businessman than a straight-up villain, and there ''are'' some lines he is unwilling to cross. Plus, he lacks Justin Hammer's psychotic traits.
* [[Bald of Evil]]
* [[Big Bad]]: Shares the role with Gene and later Justin Hammer.
Line 227:
Descendant of the original Mandarin.
 
* [[Anti -Villain]]: Combines traits of Type I, II and III.
* [[Cool Shades]]
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
Line 238:
* [[Kick the Dog]]: Gene's treatment of poor Happy can be seen like this.
** His treatment of {{spoiler|Howard Stark}} in the second season is worse. It's like the writers want to erase any sympathy the audience might have for him.
* [[Only Known Byby Their Nickname]]: People very rarely refer to him by his actual name.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: His mother was killed by Zhang. We have no clue as to what happened to his biological father. And Zhang is pretty much evil.
* [[Smug Snake]]: He acts a lot like Zhang, though he'd never admit it.
Line 251:
* [[Karma Houdini]]: So far, anyway.
* [[Love Makes You Evil]]: Averted. He was already evil and never loved Gene's mother.
* [[Put Onon a Bus]]: He wasn't actually seen since the season 1 finale (though he appears in "Mandarin's Quest" as a hallucination).
* [[The Usurper]]: Not a Khan as stated by Gene. It's s heavily implied that he killed Gene's mother, which would explain how he got the ring.
 
Line 260:
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Why he snapped.
* {{spoiler|[[Came Back Wrong]]}}
* [[Card -Carrying Villain]]: Wants to do evil purely for the recognition due to his mental issues.
* [[Evil Redhead]]: At least until his [[Heel Face Turn]].
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: His mother's treatment led to an extraordinarily bad inferiority complex, which led him to commit crime in part to get attention and in part, to be successful and prove her wrong. This is what led him to become the Living Laser.
Line 268:
* [[Hidden Depths]]
* [[Literal Split Personality]]: Into light and dark halves in "Look Into The Light".
* [[Not -So -Harmless Villain]]
* [[Redemption Equals Death]]: {{spoiler|Until being revived thanks to Mr. Fix}}
* [[Single -Issue Psychology]]
* [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity]]: He already had a massive inferiority complex, though, so it's hard to say for sure.
 
Line 288:
* [[Intangible Man]]
* [[Invisibility Cloak]]
* [[Only in It For Thethe Money]]: So much so that he can be bribed out of killing people.
* [[Punch Clock Villain]]: He has few concerns with his contact's objectives and only cares about being payed. If you are able to gice him more money than his original hirer did, he will gladly accept it to give up his original mission.
* [[Scarily Competent Tracker]]
* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: When A.I.M.'s Scientist Supreme told him to fight Iron Man, he phased through the floor instead, since he wasn't being paid nearly enough. He also consistently avoids direct combat with Iron Man if he can help it.
* [[Secret Keeper]]: {{spoiler|Keeps Iron Man's secret identity to himself in order to blackmail him.}}
 
Line 306:
 
* [[Black Knight]]
* [[Blade Onon a Stick]]
* [[The Dragon]]: To Count Nefaria in season one.
* [[Energy Ball]]: His lance can fire one in his second appearance. [[Homing Projectile|It even tracks his target.]]
Line 326:
{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Michael Daingerfield}}
 
* [[Frickin' Laser Beams]]
* [[Super Speed]]: One of his armor upgrades that debuted on "Hostile Takeover".
* [[Those Two Bad Guys]]: With Killer Shrike.
Line 333:
{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Peter Kelamis}}
 
* [[Adaptational Badass]]: and ''how''. The Whiplash from the comic was basically just a guy with lashes and a lame costume. Armored Adventures redesigned him as a very competent and dangerous henchman using energized lashes who almost killed Iron Man in his first appearance. Interestingly, [[Iron Man (Filmfilm)|Iron Man 2]] later makes an [[Adaptational Badass]] of the same villain (making [[Badass Bookworm|him]] [[Genius Bruiser|even more]] [[Magnificent Bastard|badass]] in the process), and used the energized lashe trick as well.
* [[Combat Tentacles]]: His whips are much too versatile to be considered mere whips.
* [[The Dragon]]: To Mr. Fix.
Line 356:
* [[An Ice Person]]
* [[Composite Character]]: Former Stark employee like the original Blizzard, [http://marvel.wikia.com/Gregor_Shapanka_(Earth-616) Gregor Shapanka], but has the identity of the better known Blizzard, Donald Gill.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: half of his face has been disfigured due to an experiment from Stane.
* [[I Lied]]
* [[Mad Scientist]]
Line 367:
* [[Mad Scientist]]
* [[Mind Control Device]]: His basic M.O.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: His victims have red eyes and black lips, though this may simply be a cue for the viewer.
* [[The Starscream]]: To A.I.M.
 
Line 376:
* {{spoiler|[[Degraded Boss]]: In season two, he becomes Justin Hammer's remote controlled "plaything".}}
* [[Electronic Speech Impediment]]
* [[Fun Withwith Acronyms]]: '''M'''ental '''O'''rganism '''D'''esigned '''O'''nly for '''C'''onquest.
* [[Psychic Powers]]
* [[Psycho Prototype]]
Line 395:
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]
* [[Psychopathic Manchild]]: Has shades of this, especially when things don't go his way.
* [[Rich in Dollars, Poor In Sense]]: He bungee-jumps out of his office window just to screw with his secretary.
** Nick Fury even lampshades his eccentricities during Justin's presentation, basically asking the other military figures, "Are we seriously buying weapons from this guy?"
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money]]
* [[Smug Snake]]
 
Line 409:
* [[Even Evil Has Loved Ones]]: She does care about her brother Andy {{spoiler|even though he is a mere robot she created in an attempt to replace her dead family.}}
* [[Evil Genius]]
* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]: Smart enough to create hightly advanced traps, build very realistic androids, and reproduce [[Ant -Man|Dr. Pym]]'s shrinking ray.
* [[Not So Different]]: Played with; she apparently likes believing that Tony has the same defect as her, accusing him of befriending Happy because having an idiot for a friend made him feel more intelligent, and having her brother hint that Tony killed Howard because he couldn't stand his father being smarter than him. She's wrong, of course, and Tony [[Berserk Button|didn't take the accusation well.]]
* [[Not -So -Harmless Villain]]: Stark initially didn't see her as more than a weird and aggressive schoolmate who was no more than a nuisance. {{spoiler|Just try imagining his reaction when she turns out to be an [[Evil Genius]] with a [[Artificial Human|robot brother]] who tried to kill him and his friends.}}
* [[Smug Snake]]: She won't admit that Tony's smarter than her and will keep acting arrogant as much as she can.
* [[Ultimate Universe]]: Based on the [[Ultimate Marvel]] version of {{spoiler|The Mad Thinker}}.
