Profile

What has to be said about Victor Von Doom, otherwise known to the world at large as Doctor Doom? Renowned in both the fields of science as well as the occult, his knowledge and intellectual drive is only exceeded by his pride, as clearly the world would be far better off under his leadership. Sadly, the rest of the world fails to see it that way, but Doom will persist. Because eventually, Doom knows that he will be proven correct.

Description

ExpandClick to expand.

The figure which you happen to be beholding stands exceptionally tall, well over six feet in height. Barely anything is often seen about what Doom actually looks like. But at those rare times when one can get close to Doom, they will notice that he has brown eyes and dark brown hair.

Everything about this man's appearance is clearly designed for intimidation and deigned for absolute authority. Encased completely in metallic armor, strangely akin to that of a famous Avenger. covered in head to toe in dark grey armor. With bright glowing green repulsers at his chest, hands, and feet, with glowing eye slits on the helmet. a pure black hood and cloak drape from his shoulders all the way down to his feet. His face is covered with a metallic mask.

This man could only be the one and only Doctor Doom

History

ExpandClick to expand.

Victor von Doom grew up in poverty among the Romani of Latveria. After the death of his mother, Victor discovered she had been a sorceress, and he dedicated his life to learning magic and science in order to create a better life for his people. For a time, this meant traveling to the US to study at Empire State University.

While at university, Victor met Reed Richards, who became Victor's nemesis after pointing out flaws in a machine that Victor created to talk to the dead. When his attempt to use the machine failed and exploded, injuring and scarring his face, Victor was expelled--and he blamed Reed for it all.

Victor wandered the world for a time until he came upon a monastery where he found peace...for a time. He mastered all the monks could show him and then forged a suit of armor in which to reside, where he was reborn as Doctor Doom. Doom returned to Latveria and successfully staged a coup, gaining power and authority so that his people could be free and he could rule as he saw fit.

Since that time, Doom has regularly clashed with a number of other heroes and villains across the world, most notably the Fantastic Four. In each case, Doom has believed his goals were just and his path the correct and righteous one. He has yet to be utterly defeated, and Doom knows the day will come when the world will see that his efforts in Latveria can benefit all mankind--so long as it occurs under his rule.

Personality

ExpandClick to expand.

Victor von Doom is a more complex individual than many might think, but the central feature of his personality is his sense of self-importance. He cannot bring himself to admit that he is weak or wrong in any way, his ego motivating him to try and realize the greatness he believes is his inheritance and due. As a result, Doom believes that everything he does is justified, as his greatness would not lead him to any sort of folly. Anyone who disagrees is accordingly an enemy, whether it is a threat to his achievement or an otherwise powerless critic of his doctrine. Of course, it is a testament to Doom's ego that he cannot even recognize the irony of his dwelling so long and dedicating so many resources to proving his self-proclaimed greatness.

However, Doom is not wholly without compassion. To those who embrace his stance, Doom is obscenely generous (or at least, he believes he is): he strives to make sure such supporters are well taken care of, even though it is a given that they should recognize and respect, if not fear, his might. He does not court their favor--he merely acknowledges their acceptance of the 'truth'.

Abilities

ExpandClick to expand.

DIMENSIONAL TRAVEL
Among the spells Doom can cast is the opening of portals to other dimensions so that he and others can enter them. However, he refrains from doing so often--as the inhabitants of such portals might potentially travel through them as well. (Staff-approval only)

INDOMITABLE WILLPOWER
Doom's driving force. His determination and will might as well be made out of Adamantium. Maybe even something stronger. When he sets his mind to something, not even hell literally freezing over has made him reconsider or stopped him from trying to advance. He's resisted the effects of powerful telepaths and he's suffered extremely agonizing amounts of pain and didn't even let out a single grunt.

Of course, his willpower is his ego. His pride. The Will of Doom is nothing to scoff at....and it's one of the reasons why he's one of the most dangerous men on the planet.

MAGIC
Doctor Doom is one of the greatest authorities of magic the world has ever known. While he's not the Sorcerer Supreme, he's a solid contender. First taught by his mother and later master sorcerers like Morgana Le Fay, Victor eventually began to learn to draw his powers and knowledge from other entities. Becoming a master in the Dark Arts of magic, he draws almost all of his magic might from the deals he's made with demons and dark lords, namely the Hazareth Three.

By using words and hand gestures, Doctor Doom has the power to wield the distortion of reality known as magic.

Doom is powerful enough with magic to cast a myriad of spells that are strong enough to momentarily challenge a being like the Hulk or the Thing and fight with them evenly for a short period of time. He can create blasts, beams, weapons, etc, that at their best? Are powerful enough to cut/blast through incredibly hard metals, but you won't see them penetrate ultra-metals like Adamantium or Vibranium.

In terms of defense, he can craft immensely powerful shields that have (at it's maximum) withstood the blows of beings like Thor, though these particular shields tend to drain Doom of his energy, and thus can only be held up for brief periods of time. About 3-5 minutes, give or take. In terms of more mundane acts that he can perform with magic, Doom can levitate up to about 1,250 ft tall (the size of the Empire State Building), Use minor telekinetics (e.g allow up to three people to levitate with him, summon something to his hand from across the room), speak Telepathically with anyone in the country (About the size of Latveria itself). Doom can also lift minor to moderate curses, though he's unable to lift a curse that's, say, created by an incredibly powerful demonic or supernatural entity like Dormmamu.

PSIONICS
A direct result from Doom coming into contact with certain extra-terrestrial beings has caused him to 'learn' and possess Psionic abilities. Though his true psionic abilities have absolutely nothing to do with his knowledge or skill in the mystic arts, but through the constant improvement and dedication of enhancement to his mental capabilities. While he cannot do anything like read minds or lift things with them, he has a considerable degree of control in the area of Technopathy.

Technopathy: Doom can exert Technopathic control over machines and other pieces of technology, something he most popularly uses with his own creations, so as to maintain a heavy modicum of control. He can power, rework, and even completely short circuit/shut down. He's put a pistol together with just his mind and a supercomputer. He's reworked inventions on the fly with this. He can't mess with systems he cannot understand (and those are rare) and he can affect machinery within his line of sight.

Hypnotism: Learned from the Tibetan Monks that helped iron-forge him into what he is, Doom knows a few ways to hypnotize people. Either with that menacing stare of his or with various small contraptions or sleight of hand movements.

SUMMONING
By channeling his dark magic, Doom is able to summon various demons from Hell. While these creatures can only do what they are specifically instructed to do, they have an innate weakness against light-based attacks, and they have an immunity to fire. They can be killed and defeated in the same ways that one would kill a human. They have VERY sharp claws that can cut through steel and they rely on sheer numbers when attacking, akin to a frenzy. They can each individually lift about two tons. Lesser Demons, as it were. When summoning these lesser demons, Doom, at his best, can summon 100. They are of average human height.

Doom, through strength of will but at a cost of great energy, can also summon terrifying demons from the Abyss. Though he can only summon a maximum of five of these demons at a time, and needs about a day to recover before he can attempt to summon them again. They are large, about 8 ft. Tall. They are powerful, able to each lift Ten Tons. They are immune to fire of any kind, though they can still be killed just like their lesser counterparts. They also have sharp claws, but they can also breathe fire. Very potent, much more dangerous.

All in all, these demons can also just generally cause havoc, and might be more a detriment to Doom himself rather than his enemies.

Skills

FINE ARTS
Doom is an accomplished painter and pianist, having spent much of his childhood practicing so as to achieve greatness in technical form and execution of his chosen arts. While some critics have suggested that Doom's work appears to lack some passion, he nonetheless continues exercising his visual and musical skills.

MARTIAL ARTS
Doom is an experienced combatant. Taught by the Tibetan Monks and some of the greatest warriors known to man, he is experienced in multiple fighting styles. Both empty handed and with melee weapons. Most notably, he has immense knowledge about pressure points and nerves, able to strike with pin-point proficiency to defeat an opponent swiftly without dragging out the fight. In one instance, where he was trapped in the far past, he killed a lion with a single blow.

PHYSIQUE
Just as he has exercised his mind to its limits, so too has Doom actively and regularly trained his body to its peak level of ability. Beneath his armor, Doom is very healthy and fit, able to run and move quickly and deftly, capable of pushing his endurance to its limits, and as strong as a normal human can be.

SUPER GENIUS
The most dangerous weapon a man will ever possess is his mind. Doctor Doom is that man. In sheer intelligence alone, Victor Von Doom is one of the greatest minds on the planet. With multiple PhD's and MD's in various scientific fields, including but not limited to: cybernetics, Biochemistry, and physics. He's created an immense number of inventions while also performing mental feats that seem to be next to impossible. He's built time machines, machines that give people superpowers, and even machines that serve as his personal decoys: Doombots.

He's stopped people from disintegrating, solved world problems (namely for the sake of his beloved Latveria), and can even seemingly cure incurable conditions with science alone (physical deformities). With his mind, Doom seems to be able to have a path for success no matter what uphill battle he happens to be facing.

Resources

ExpandClick to expand.

ARMOR
Doom's armor. An incredibly powerful suit with advanced technological and built-in magical abilities. It is highly resistant to damage of an incredibly variety of types, mundane and arcane alike. Thanks to the sealed environment, Doom can survive in space and other zero-oxygen zones for at least a week. Due to Doom's preference to mainly avoid combat whenever possible, his suit contains a plethora of defensive capabilities and few truly offensive ones.

The suit is made out of a powerful titanium alloy and is constantly being modified and added onto as Doom discovers new ways to plan ahead. It's powered by solar radiation along with two fusion devices to allow Doom to almost never have to recharge the armor itself. Thrusters in the boots allow Doom to fly up to about 150mph. If he decides to burn energy, he can fly up to 200mph.

In terms of defense, his suit contains powerful force fields that can extend and grow to about 10 feet long (in the even that he needs to protect others and not just himself) that can contain and repel punches from the powerful beings such as the Hulk for brief periods of time. Along the exterior of the armor, lightning can be emitted for an rather massive electric shock for anyone who manages to get past the force field.

In terms of offense, the armor can fire repulsor blasts from the chestplace and hands, able to smash through hard materials like titanium. Small missile launchers can emerge from the gauntlets to be fired. Strength enhancers in the armor allow it to lift up to 50 tons.

DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY
Victor is the sovereign and absolute ruler of Latveria. Because he often travels to foreign nations for peace talks and technology exchange, Doom has diplomatic immunity. He does not answer to the authorities of the nations he visits. The Latverian Embassy is foreign soil.

DOOMBOTS
Doctor Doom's decoys. Created to look and act exactly like Doom (armored) himself. They are fully designed and capable to even trick the likes of experienced telepaths and even those who are very familiar with Doom to think they are the -actual- Victor von Doom. While they have relatively the same abilities as the real Doctor Doom, they are sent in Doom's stead when Doom has no desire to go somewhere himself. Especially if combat will be a necessity. They've been used to fake his death (unintentionally) on very many occasions.

LATVERIA

The Kingdom that Victor rules. Victor Von Doom is the King of Latveria and it's absolute ruler. It's through Latveria that Doom has the resources that he needs; whether it's the incalculable wealth, extra hands to build his machines, or simply a place where everyone can look at him and know that he's right all the time. It definitely serves his ego well. Not only that, but the people of Latveria -love- Doom! They see him as a wise ruler who always looks out for their well being...which is actually true.

Weaknesses

ExpandClick to expand.

EGO
Doom's greatest weakness. The best way to manipulate or take advantage of Doom is to play his ego. Doesn't matter at all if it is meant to be positive or negative in it's intention, for he'll be paying -very- close attention to those who do so, much to his detriment. While Doom plans for nearly all contingencies, he can never resist boasting his victory or responding to threats or even attempting to appeal to his own perception.

ENEMIES
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Doctor Doom has gained a considerable number and variety of enemies and rivals who seek to bring him down for just as varied a set of motives. For the most part, Doom does not concern himself with paying much attention to them unless he must--but many of his opponents work unceasingly to stop him.

LATVERIA
Just as Doom's homeland is one of his most treasured and versatile resources, so too is it among his greatest weaknesses. Doom has a genuine care about every single Latverian under his rule and care, providing a stable government where no sickness is present, starvation is nonexistent, and crime is a thing of the past. If Latveria were in danger, no matter what Doom is doing at the moment, he will immediately rush to the aid of his nation...it also happens to be the quickest way to get Victor to the stage of royally pissed off.

REED RICHARDS
The greatest of Doom's enemies and his only intellectual equal. Reed has been Doom's bane throughout all of his life. From when they went to the University together to inventions to opposing each other's ideals...Reed is the only individual who has, time and time again, taken advantage of Doom's flaws and plans to shift the tide. Richards is the thorn in Doom's paw.

One of Doom's sole goals in life is to prove, once and for all, that he is better--in every conceivable way--than Mister Fantastic and his rabble band.
