Role-Playing Notes: Varies History: The Mandroid personal battle suit was originally built by Stark International, to be used by S.H.I.E.L.D.. The battle suits were first used against the Avengers by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, when the Avengers were under suspicion of harboring aliens during an active period of the Kree- Skrull war. A Mandroid battle suit was also used unsuccessfully by Major Glenn Talbot, while he was fighting the Hulk. The weapons manufacturer, Moses Magnum, acquired the plans for the Mandroid and built some of his own. These were used unsuccessfully against the X-Men in Japan. Recently, Tony Stark found out that years ago, the Spymaster stole his plans for the Iron Man armor. The Spymaster had then sold the plans to Justin Hammer, who in turn sold the plans to various criminals. These criminals then used the plans to cre ate their own suits of armor. Angered, Stark went on a crusade to destroy all suits of battle armor. To do this, he used a device that he in vented called a negator pack. When attached to a suit of armor, it totally fused all of the armor’s circuits. Stark pretended that Iron Man had rebelled and that he had fired him from Stark Enterprises. During his destruction of various suits of armor, Stark had done some things that the government did not approve of. Stark agreed to help S.H.I.E.L.D. capture Iron Man, though actually he wanted a chance to destroy S.H.l.E.L.D.’s Mandroids. Stark feared that Justin Hammer might get a hold of the plans for the Mandroids, so he wanted to destroy them too. He was able to trick S.H.I.E.L.D., and ambush the agents wearing the suits of Mandroid armor. As Iron Man, Stark used the negator packs to completely fuse the Mandroid’s circuits. Stark has also implied that he has somehow wiped out all the plans on the Mandroid suits that the government possesses. Of course, there is a chance that other Mandroid suits exist, in the government or other’s possession. |
