He retired in no small part because the nuclear power source of the Tokamak armor was slowly killing him with radiation poisoning. (Even in the dark game, he probably retired before things went crazy, actually, and may well still be alive.) |
Anna is extremely bright, and her father gave her an excellent education, homeschooling her for much of her life. She was also homeschooled for her own protection, but soon it became clear that there was another reason to keep her under close supervision-- Anna was a mutant, and her power, the ability to generate incredibly powerful blasts of plasma energy, was very, very dangerous. | Anna is extremely bright, and her father gave her an excellent education, homeschooling her for much of her life.

Sergei threw all his effort into making safety equipment for Anna, creating a set of heavy gauntlets that could channel her power safely away until she could learn to control her powers. Of course, the gauntlets were very heavy, so it was more practical to turn them into a larger arm-and-shoulder harness. | Sergei threw all his effort into making safety equipment for Anna, creating a set of heavy gauntlets that could channel her power safely away until she could learn to control her powers.

From then on, Anna realized that she wanted to learn to use her powers to help people. |
Sergei was reluctant, but couldn't say 'No' to his beloved daughter. He'd never endanger her with a nuclear-powered suit, of course, but he adapted the harness into a large suit of armor powered by her own powers. The armor was incredibly thick, able to channel her plasma energies into a variety of forms, far beyond what she could manage on her own. (While the lack of a nuclear reactor combined with the smaller size of his daughter would easily have let Sergei make a much smaller suit of armor, he chose not to, out of a strong desire to protect his daughter both from enemies and from overzealous men.) Tokamak had returned. | Sergei was reluctant, but couldn't say 'No' to his beloved daughter.
