| − | '''Notes:''' Iron Man is '''the''' original Battlesuit archetype. He has a very big bag of tricks. The GM should allow him a lot of versatility with the expenditure of Hero Points. It's also extremely appropriate for Iron Man to use the Extraordinary Effort rules described in the Masterminds Manual to really boost his armor capabilities for a little while before short-circuiting it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Usually Iron Man is a PL 12 character. When he takes the time to really charge himself up with electricity (or is attacked with it), he can raise himself to PL 14. Iron Man can also spend a Hero Point to switch his Absorption to a different kind of energy other than electricity.
