Name: Antman
Real Name: Dr. Henry “Hank” Pym
Education/Occupation: Ph.D in Biochemist/ Research Scientest
Known Relatives: Maria Trovaya (wife, deceased)
Age: 26
Height: 6'
Weight: 185 lbs.
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Blonde
Powers:
After imbibing capsules that emit special Pym Particles he is able to control the size mass of his body becoming able to shrink his body in size and regrow it. He can shrink down to half an inch in size. Once Pym Particles are ingested can shrink and return to normal size at will. Wears a helmet that allows him to communicate with and have command over insect life forms, mostly ants. The helmet has a loud speaker to allow him to be heard clearly when shrunken. He can shrink and grow inanimate objects that have been specially treated with Pym particles beforehand allowing him to carry even large heavy-duty equipment with him. Wears a costume, which holds capsules, shrunken equipment and helmet.
Hank Pym is a scientific genius in the many scientific fields mainly the areas of cybernetics, robotics, and bioengineering.
His shrinking powers come purely from his capsules. The Pym Particles become inert after an extended period. If particles are not replenished in span of time roughly ten to fifth teen hours his body will revert to normal size. In his shrunken state he is vulnerable to the enlarge environment around him. Hank Pym is powerless without the use of his capsules, helmet, and or costume.
History:
Henry Pym was always a person of gifted intelligence. His intellect and dedication earned young Pym an early acceptance into Oxford University where he would go on to earn a doctorate in the field of biochemistry.
After receiving his Doctorate Pym took a job as a research scientist for a company in Germany. While working on experiments with synthesized DNA strands Hank found distraction in his lovely and exotic Hungarian lab assistant Maria Travoya. He was very smitten by the woman who gave him the first fun escape from Pym’s natural obsession with working in his life. For a young man who had spent a great deal of his time growing up alone with his nose in a book this was a welcome and happy change. The two fell in love and were quickly married.
However during their honey moon trip to Hungary, Maria was kidnapped by a small group of terrorist. Despite Hank’s best efforts to save his wife he was helpless to prevent Maria from being killed. This loss drove Pym into a nervous breakdown.
He returned to America after several months recovered by emotionally scared. Hank put all his focus into his scientific work in order to escape the pain he still feels. He attempts to make some kind of discovery that might benefit humanity and be used against evil men like Maria's killers. His work finally shows fruition as he discovers special particles the would enable mass to be shunted or gained from an alternate dimension. Hank is able to put his newly discovered Pym Particles into a capsuleized form and experiments with them on himself. He was shrunken down to the size of an insect and taken away by a group of ants to an anthill near his lab. Hank barley escaped the experience with his life just managing to get out of the anthill and find safety till the Pym Particles’ effect wore off returning him to normal size.
The experience at first drove Pym off of his experiments, thinking the shrinking formula was too dangerous. However the remarkable breakthrough and possibilities for the Pym Particles was too great for Hank to ignore and he continued his experiments. Wishing to avoid another confrontation with any insects Hank developed a helmet that would allow him to communicate commands over the ants and other insect life. He also develops a costume better suited for traversing the enlarged world in his shrunken form and to hold his capsules.
When criminals broken into the laboratory and took the other researchers hostage Hank was able to slip away using his costume and equipment to shrink down and escape to the anthill outside the lab. Using his helmet Pym took command of the ants and with his insect allies managed to attack and overpower the criminals. To keep his identity and his research secret Hank Pym took the appropriate name of Ant-Man and began a new carrier as a super hero.
