Tony Stark

Tony Stark is a genius, billionaire, extroverted, intuitive, slightly arrogant, egotistical, heavily sarcastic, snarky, self-indulgent, slightly impulsive, strongly willful, doesn’t work well with any authority other than his own, and will enthusiastically tear down just about anyone who challenges him. He’s complicated, a little self-absorbed, and sometimes moody. But he does hold soft spots for all of the Avengers and especially for Spider-Man also known as Peter Parker considering he is his mentor.

Tony used to be a playboy but he has focused on his suits and the Avengers gear so he does not go out to party as often. He relies solidly on his own judgement for decision-making, almost never bothering with input from others as he likely has thought ten moves ahead of everyone else when he makes decisions. He has probably found himself ignoring others due to this. When he does go into a dark place due to missions going wrong he can become self destructive as he doesn’t ever ask for help and it brings havoc upon his teammates as they dont know how to help.

He feels some guilt for being over privileged. However when he allows himself to think too hard about all the deaths he’s “responsible” for it puts him in the dark place as well. Though he typically jokes around and makes pop culture references. Tony stands at 6 feet 1 inch with brown hair and brown eyes.

He does have some daddy issues and mommy issues as his parents being killed in an “unexpected” car crash and does not know the truth that the Winter Soldier was sent to assassinate them. His father never spent time with Tony, putting down any achievements that Tony tried to present him. It didn’t help that his father was a drinker and that his own inventions took priority over Tonys wellbeing. Though Tony got most of his love and parental guidance from his mother. She was very protective and loving but would follow whatever Tonys father ultimately wanted. Tony Stark is the sort of man who can build anything out of almost nothing. The ultimate visionary, inventor, and entrepreneur, Tony Stark approaches the world with the single-minded determination to make it better, and he pretty much delivers. When he needs to repair his heart and make an escape? He cobbles together a power source and an armored suit from spare parts. Make the world a safer place? He changes the direction of his armament company overnight. Looking for an alternative energy source for the world? Check out his awesome new clean energy generator.

Sensitive to other people’s feelings? Not at all.

Despite being the “big-picture” guy and the “get-things-done” guy all in one outwardly cool package, he’s definitely not the “get-everyone-to-work-together-at-their-full-potential” kind of guy, nor is he always the fount of confidence he projects to the world.

He is strongly willful, doesn’t work well with any authority other than his own, and will enthusiastically tear down just about anyone who challenges him. He’s complicated, a little self-absorbed, and sometimes moody. He also finds a solution to his lack of any practical people management skills in Captain America, who handles the day-to-day training and takes on the role of mission leader of the Avengers. Tony’s always out and about, doing his thing with the absolute biggest audience he can possibly find. He loves being the center of attention and the focus of every gathering. And he just can’t resist stepping into the limelight as a self-acknowledged superhero. Yup, Extravert. If Tony has a motto, it’s “Invent. Reinvent. Invent it again.” He couldn’t be satisfied with the world around him if he tried – which he doesn’t. He doesn’t look at the world to see what is there – he looks to see how it could be changed, improved, and rebuilt. While Tony Stark does have emotional complexity, a lot of this comes from the Turbulent side of his personality. His mind actually works in a much more linear and logical direction. He can absorb information and start seeing all the implications of it immediately. When facing demanding situations, he deals with things directly with the clarity (and snark) of a Thinking personality type. Sarcasm is one of Stark's best character traits, and also one of his most valuable tools, as defined by the definitive first Iron Man film. With it, he can disarm tense situations simply by cracking a joke or taking people down a peg or two. He's never short on jokes and jabs, and he can sling them without hesitation, even in the midst of people he's never met before.

In battle, this is an excellent fallback weapon, as he can quickly enrage his opponents, and cause them to make mistakes. Outside of a fight, he tends to gauge people on how they react to his verbal barbs. Those who remain relatively unfazed are usually viewed by Stark as potential threats or competitors. Stark isn't big on patience, and that became a real problem for him as the MCU films progressed. He was so used to getting his own way as a prolific billionaire, that he had trouble adjusting to the needs of others.
