You know, when I saw Feeding Dependency for Tony Stark, a part of me was expecting the dependency to be for booze.

It's for his armor - he always seems to run out of energy - and it should be based off the "technology" skill. I just forgot to write that down.

I like it, this is more or less the way I would have written Stark up.

Though the armour seems underpriced.

Just wanted to say how much I like the "Too Smart For My Own Good" Aspect.  That's really well chosen.

it doesnt state that, but i assume that would be a price due to magic's effect on modern tech.  Powered armour like iron man is considered modern tech.

Should put that in as a Catch (+X) and add the value of the Catch to the price of the armor.

Keeps the same basic Refresh value, but fits the rules as written better.

The armor itself seems underpriced because it doesn't appear to include any of the weapons the armor has.

The armor is just that - the armor. Weapons, energy shields, gadgets; those are all additions via his supertech as enchanted items.

Hexing might work (though Iron Man's armor has never been shown to fail/malfunction naturally and seems able to even fix itself) but it might also be stopped by one of the energy shields before reaching any systems at all.

Booze and women. Preferably at the same time.

Is it?

Because I don't think that modern technology can do one tenth of what iron man does.

If something is supposed to be vulnerable in some way, then that should be an aspect or a part of its mechanics.

His craftsmanship should be a lot higher.
