Howard constantly talked about his admiration for Captain America, which caused Stark to develop hatred towards the super soldier.Tony had a loving relationship with his mother. At a young age, Stark quickly stole the spotlight with his brilliant and unique mind. While he was in high school, Stark hacked into the Pentagon on a dare by some friends. When he was seventeen, Tony graduated at the top of his class from MIT. when Tony was just twenty-one years old, his parents were assassinated and covered up the incident to be a car crash, leaving Tony in grief and struggling to process this tragedy. A month after the incident, Tony inherited Stark Industries. In 2008 Tony was kidnapped by the Ten Rings in Afghanistan. He was hit by one of his own missiles, having to create and install an Arc Reactor into his chest permanently to keep the shreds from getting to his heart and killing him. With his life on the line, Tony created an armored suit which he used to escape his captors. Upon returning home, he utilized several more armors to use against terrorists. After setting all problems, Tony publicly revealed himself as Iron Man despite being told not to. With the world yet again being threatened, Tony formed the Avengers and helped defeat the Chitauri and Loki in New York. When the battle was considered a threat to the other states, a nuclear missile was launched, which Tony caught and led into the Chitauri spaceship. In space Tony’s Iron Man suit ran out of power, causing him to suffer a free fall from the very space. Tony was caught before he hit the ground and survived. Due to the battle, he suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, leading him to create the Iron Legion to safeguard the world and help him retire. In the time he completed drowned himself in work to keep his mind off the events that happened in New York. The name of the city itself caused him to have anxiety attacks, which he was in denial about. Tony suffered severe insomnia because of having nightmares every time he went to sleep. However, as Tony usually did, he didn’t reach out for help, pushing everyone away instead and working all day and night. In just a year he made over 30 new suits of different purpose. Other=Many people in the media thought that Tony was only just an egocentric playboy. But despite his rather carefree and overly confident personality, inside Tony’s heart lay loneliness, as he was described: "A man that has everything, but has nothing." Even following his reformation and birth as Iron Man, this stigma surrounding Tony persisted as many were quick to point fingers at him believing his arrogance and callous attitudes were the cause of many problems. Even after starting a new life as a superhero, Tony kept his sense of humor and his penchant for showmanship, the latter being demonstrated in his armor's red and gold color schemes, and in revealing his identity in public despite being told not to. Tony has also shown a strong liking towards heavy metal and rock music groups like Black Sabbath, AC/DC, and Queen. Tony is aware of his flaws, however, uses them as a reminder to do better and often making self-deprecating jokes or comments. When it comes to expressing emotion, it's easier to read Tony’s face than to hear what he has to say. Tony lives is his private mansion located on a sea-side cliff along the coast of Malibu. The mansion was highly technologically integrated and was wired by Tony to be run by his personal AI. The basement of his mansion is a high-tech laboratory, Tony spends a lot of time in, working on his inventions. 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. 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.
