SPECIAL ABILITIES
ADVANTAGES: |
| CONVICTION - WHIPLASH possesses great belief in them self, what WHIPLASH is doing, what he stands for. Stark screwed his family, and he's going to make him pay no matter what the cost.
MECHANICAL APTITUDE - Whether it be cars, aero-jets, computers or children's toys, WHIPLASH has the ability to look past their exterior to see how they work and is therefore a useful person to have around when appliances or engines aren't working or have packed in altogether.
TIRELESS - WHIPLASH can function better with less sleep then most. With the constant focus with working with technology, he doesn't need much sleep. |
POWERS: |
| WHIPLASH ARMOR: Whiplash has designed an armor from the remnants of one of Iron Man's armors that gives him the following:
BODY ARMOR: Am protection vs. Physical and Energy
GAUNTLET WHIPS: Am material, Whiplash’s arsenal centers on a pair of specially designed whips constructed from the copper wire component of the electromagnet that powered the Iron Man armor. These whips are stored within his gauntlets. He may use the whips in a number of ways:
1.) As whips: Mn Blunt or Edge, able to burn through Am material
2.) Entrapment: Grapple an opponent with Am Strength
3.) Electrical Generation: If it grapples a target, Whiplash can channel Am intensity electricity through to its target
4.) Deflection: By spinning the whips at speeds up to 12,000 revolution per minute, it forms a protective shield of Rm protection vs. Projectiles
ENHANCED VISION: Vanko wears polymorphic infrared contact lenses of his own design that gives him Night Vision and Thermal Vision. |
FIGHTING SKILLS: |
| COMBAT STYLE (Brawling) - This skill lets CN inflict damage when using fists, claws, teeth, or any other natural attack. If s/he reduce a foe to 0 body this way, the foe goes comatose. These actions (bites, eye gouges, kidney punches, and so on) are generally frowned upon in heroic circles.
ENGINEERING (WEAPON DESIGN SPECIALTY): The discipline of acquiring and applying scientific and technical knowledge to the design, analysis, and/or construction of works for practical purposes.

| COMPULSIVE-AGGRESSIVE - Day-to-day exposure to horrifying scenes, blended with your innate desire to dust the perpetrators, has caused WHIPLASH to lose sight of your moral and social perspective on violence. Naked aggression is your primary way to interact with others socially.

HISTORY
NPC WAIVER UTILIZED for this History.
Ivan Vanko served Justin Hammer as an Engineer with a well establishing his reputation early on by battling Iron Man to a stalemate. Vanko's father and Howard Stark were both co-designers of the first Starktech back in the 60's. However, Ivan's father Anton was discovered to be a spy and deported back to Russia. It wasn't until recently Anton died and Ivan vowed to have his revenge on the Stark Family.
After getting fake passports, Ivan traveled to Monaco looking for Stark. Finding his intended target, Ivan unleashed his whiplash design onto the unsuspecting Tony Stark. Since Tony had brought his compact armor suitcase, he suited up and the two dueled in the middle of the Monaco Raceway. Iron Man won, sending Ivan to jail and destroying the Whiplash technology Ivan had constructed.
Upon recovery, he was sent to Prison to serve time for his various crimes. He was freed by criminal financier Justin Hammer, who was gathering a small army of costumed criminals for whom he would finance their operations in exchange for a share of their profits. Hammer provided Ivan with the funds and facilities to totally revamp and update his arsenal.
