 Doombots! If your character has been playing in a Marvel
Superheroes RPG game for a while, chances are that they’ll
come across one of these sooner or later. Created by Victor
von Doom as his personal stand-ins, every once in a while,
one of them overrides its programming and goes rogue.
This issue of Marvel Phile got its start a while ago, when I
was looking the rogues’ galleries of some of my favorite
teams and heroes -- Moon Girl, Runaways, Gwenpool, and a
few others -- and noticed while looking through the Marvel
wiki, “Holy cow, there’s a lot of Doombots that have gone
their own way.” Apparently, even Doctor Doom isn’t enough
of a robotics genius to keep his own creations in line. In all
seriousness though, a rogue Doombot provides a great built-
in origin for any PC and Doom’s creations are so specialized
that a justification can be found for even a randomly-rolled
powerset. Potential story arcs for Doombots abound, and
I’ve included some common disadvantages, abilities and tips
to help you get started.
This Phile also includes material reprinted from the official
Lands of Doom boxed set, reproducing the statistics for
some of the more common models. New material includes
write-ups for some of the “named” Doombots that have
appeared over the years. You’ll also find here stats for some
of the non-standard and alternate-universe Doombot models
that Doom has employed, including alternate-universe
versions or ones that Doom has upgraded since Lands of
Doom was published.
All of the material here has been written as part of the
Unofficial Marvel Superheroes Canon Project, which aims to

 DOOMBOTS

Note: The following section is reprinted

from the Lands of Doom boxed set
Book 2: Machines of Doom. For sake of
brevity, we’ve only included “true”
Doombots and their close variations.
Readers are encouraged to check out
Lands of Doom for a more thorough
catalog of Doom’s robotic creations.

Doombots are exact mechanical

replicas of the real Doctor Doom. They
look like him, talk like him, and even act
like him. Individually, Doombots have
an advanced artificial intelligence
program that causes them to believe
themselves to really be Doctor Doom,
and act as Doom unless in the
presence of the real Von Doom or other
Doombots. These imitation Dooms
have been created to impersonate
Doctor Doom when he either cannot be
present or is unwilling to risk his own
life (such as when confronting powerful
foes).

There are two specific models of

Doombots actively used by Victor Von
Doom for various purposes: combat
and diplomatic Doombots. Both models
have the same essential intelligence
programs and operating systems, but
they have their differences within
secondary systems.

Limitations
In order to prevent his duplicates from
harming or out-performing him, Doctor
Doom installs each Doombot with a
dampener program that reduces all of
its power ranks by -2CS when
activated. This program is triggered
whenever a Doombot enters the
Master's presence or the presence of
other Doombots.

As further protection against his

creations, Doom can cause any
Doombot to self-destruct when it is in
danger of capture, defeat, or simply
becomes unimportant to him; this can
be preprogrammed or activated by
remote control. An exploding Doombot
inflicts Incredible (40) energy damage
to everyone in the same area as itself.
Talents: Doombots can operate all of
Doctor Doom's inventions and exhibit
Leadership to Latverians.

Role-Playing Notes
When impersonating their master,
Doombots act so much like Victor Von
Doom that technological equipment
and some surface mental scans cannot
tell the difference. When two or more
Doombots meet, or when they confront personality is replaced by emotionless
the real Doom, their dampener programming.
programs activate, and they begin
speaking in the monotone voices of
intelligent robots: Doctor Doom's

COMBAT DOOMBOT
When Doctor Doom is out to defeat an
enemy, he often sends a combat
Doombot. They act so much like the
real Doom, it is often impossible for a
hero to determine if he is battling the
real thing or merely a robot duplicate.
Combat Doombots are more heavily
laden with weaponry and sometimes
carry an additional weapon system in
addition to the standard armor's
capabilities (see Machines of Doom in
the boxed set for details).
First Appearance: Unknown-any or
nearly all of Doom's appearances could
be attributed to a Doombot. The first
substantiated appearance of a airspeed (10 areas per turn).
Doombot (an appearance stated or
proven to be a robot) was in

KNOWN POWERS
All combat Doombots have the
following powers as standard
equipment. They may also be fitted
with any of the "add-on" features listed
under the description of Doctor Doom's
original armor.
Robotic Form: Doombots are immune
to mental, emotional, or illusory
powers. They can be harmed by
powers that affect machinery, however.
Self-Assembly: Inside the head of each
combat Doombot are tiny mechanical
arms and tools which enable the robot's
head to completely assemble the rest
of its body. This feature is used to
infiltrate enemy strongholds-the pieces
are sent in separately through a small
opening (like a ventilation shaft), then
the head puts them all together in a
matter of minutes (Assembly program
of Excellent Reason).
Body Armor: Combat Doombots are
constructed of Incredible (40) strength
materials, and thus have Incredible (40)
body armor.
Electricity: Each combat Doombot is
wired to generate an Unearthly (100)
Intensity electric shock on command, a
very effective tactic against grappling
opponents. The shock is so powerful
that characters in the same area as the
robot, but not in direct contact with it,
suffer an Incredible (40) jolt as well. In
addition to damage, victims must
succeed at an Unearthly (100) or
Incredible (40) Intensity Endurance
FEAT or fall unconscious for 1-10
rounds. This is a single-use power that
drains the Doombot of the ability to
perform any energy-based FEAT until
the battery is recharged.
Flight: Doombots have jet-packs,
enabling them to fly at Excellent (20)
Force Bolts: Combat Doombots can fire
force bolts from their gauntlets,
inflicting up to Amazing (50) damage.
Force Field: Each robot can generate a
Monstrous (75) rank force field. With a
maximum radius of eight feet, the force
field surrounds the Doombot and
possibly others. A Doombot cannot
attack without first lowering its force
field.
Infrared Scanner: This feature allows
Doombots to detect heat sources at
Remarkable (30) rank, enabling them
to see invisible persons.
Parabolic Ear-Amplifiers: These enable
Doombots to detect unusual
frequencies and extremely faint sounds
(a whisper across a crowded room, for
example). The amplifiers function at
Remarkable (30) rank and range (8
areas).
Material Strength: Incredible (40).
Tech Rank: Shift Y (200).
Availability: Though exact numbers
are currently unknown and impossible
to calculate, it is safe to assume that
Doctor Doom has, at any given time, a
small army of 50 combat Doombots
built and ready to be activated by a
signal.

DIPLOMATIC DOOMBOT
When Doctor Doom plans to negotiate
with others, rather than do battle, he
often sends a diplomatic Doombot.
They act as the real Doom, and it is
often impossible for a character to
detect the robot's presence. These
Doombots benefit a more detailed
intelligence program than the combat
units, allowing more detailed talents
and easier adjustment to random
happenings.
First Appearance: Unknown-any or
nearly all of Doom's appearances could
be attributed to a Doombot. The first
substantiated appearance of a
Doombot (an appearance stated or
proven to be a robot) was in

under the description of Doctor Doom's
original armor.
Body Armor: Diplomatic Doombots are
made of Remarkable strength material
and only have Remarkable (30) body
armor.
Flight: Doombots have twin jet-packs,
enabling them to fly at Excellent (20) air
speed (10 areas per turn).
Force Bolts: Diplomatic Doombots can
fire Remarkable (30) rank force bolts
from their gauntlets and chest plates.
Range is limited to 8 areas.

to mental, emotional, or illusory
powers. They can be harmed by
powers that affect machinery.

diplomatic Doombots under his
command at all times.

Doctor Doom, Doom can take control of
the android by a process called "mind

succeed at a Yellow Psyche FEAT roll,
and must be within 20 areas of the
android. Mind fusion lasts for as long
as Doom devotes concentration to it
and remains within 20 areas of the
Doomsman.
Talents: Leadership (to other
androids).
Role-Playing Notes
The Doomsman I developed a will of its
own, and quickly refused to obey
Doctor Doom. It recognizes Doom as
the only person who threatens its
freedom and is determined to kill its
former master. Unlike the copying of
Wonder Man's brain patterns wholesale
into the Vision, Doom only patterned
the Doomsman's electronic brain after
his for purposes of control, not
intelligence or personality.
Material Strength: Incredible (40).
Tech Rank: Class 1000.
Availability: Doctor Doom built several
Doomsman I androids, but he only
activated one of them when he realized
it could not be controlled. It was
banished to an alternate dimension by
Doom, but it later developed a means
to escape and returned, seeking
revenge. It took the name Andro, Lord
of Androids, and turned Doom's other
androids against him. In the end,
Doomsman I escaped by using his
dimensional powers, and is presumably
still plotting revenge. The status of the
other models is unknown.
DOOMSMAN II
The Doomsman II was created by
Doom to be the ultimate killing
machine. It looks like a golden-skinned
giant standing nearly 14' tall. The
android was powered by the Power
Cosmic, which Doom stole from the
Silver Surfer.

Growth: Standing nearly 14' tall, the
android has a permanent Good (10)

great size, he is + 1 CS to be hit.
Power Cosmic: The Doomsman II
received its power from energy stolen
from the Silver Surfer. Consequently,
the android can channel and
manipulate vast amounts of cosmic
energy. His range with this power is
line-of-sight, and he has used the
Power Cosmic in the following ways:
5
• Power blasts from his eyes of
Unearthly (100) energy or force
(effect stated before rolls) .
• Enhancement of any single ability
score to Unearthly (100) for 1-10
turns.
• Survival with no need of food, water,
or air.
• Energy detection of any type with
Unearthly (100) ability (range
covering the entire planet).
• Robotic Form: The Doomsman II
cannot be affected by mental or
emotional attacks or illusions. It can,
however, be harmed by powers that
affect machinery.
Role-Playing Notes
The Doomsman II has no will of its
own, but obeys the orders of its master-
Doctor Doom. In combat, the android
delights in its power, and has no
inhibitions about killing.
Material Strength: Monstrous (75).
Tech Rank: Class 3000 (android);
Unearthly (100) (device to instill it with
the Power Cosmic).
Availability: Doctor Doom built one
Doomsman II android that was
defeated by the Fantastic Four and the
Silver Surfer. Apparently, the android's
cosmic energy dissipated, and Doom
has never reanimated it. The dormant
Doomsman II lies in the lower levels of
Castle Doom, waiting to be revived to
do its Master's bidding once again.

OTHER DOOMBOTS
Not all of Doctor Doom’s robots go
rogue -- in fact, most of them don’t. The
official TSR boxed set, Lands of Doctor
Doom, describes fairly thoroughly many
of the variations Doom has created.
This section describes some of the
more recent upgrades to Doom’s
standard robotic armies. While
intelligent, they are not sentient, in the
sense that they have no distinct
personality and obey only Doom. They
can be used as a new challenge for
players. Or, though none of them have
gained free will yet, you never know
what could happen….

ROLE-PLAYING NOTES: The Doom
Sentinels have no personality and obey
only Doctor Doom.
HISTORY
Doom Sentinels, also known as
Latviathans, were Doombot/Sentinel
hybrids created by Doctor Doom in
preparation for the rise of the mutant
nation of Krakoa. Professor X sent out
a psychic message telling everyone on
the planet that Krakoa is for all
mutants. The island nation was a safe
haven for mutants, but not all nations
recognized or respected the country's
sovereignty or an individual mutant's
right to emigrate to the promised land.
While Doctor Doom agreed that the
mutant nation had a right to exist, he
bristled at the air of superiority
displayed by Professor X and the other
leaders of Krakoa.
The X-Men approached the
Fantastic Four to take Franklin
Richards, a powerful mutant, to Krakoa.
An ensuing argument concerning
Franklin’s waning powers ended with
Franklin taking off with Kitty Pryde, the
Fantastic Four infiltrating Krakoa, and
everyone ending up on Doom Island,
an island under Doctor Doom's control
only open by special invitation from
Doom himself. Upon arrival on Doom
Island, Kitty, Franklin, and his sister
were greeted by Doctor Doom, who
promised Franklin to finally fix his
power problem. Franklin accepted
Doom's offer, but when his family and
the X-Men came to the island. Reed
Richards and Hank McCoy (Beast)
agreed to assist Doom in fixing
Franklin's powers.
Doom forbade the heroes from
making contact with the mutants there,
but they soon discovered that mutants
9
who tried to escape were forced to
become Doombot sentinels. When
Doom realized that the X-Men
discovered this, he launched his secret
weapon, Doom Sentinels. These Doom
Sentinels served as Doom's force
against any threats from the outside
world, especially mutant threats.
While the heroes tried to fend off
Doom's Sentinels, Franklin reluctantly
agreed to go on with the process, but
seeing that they needed him he tried
escape. Thanks to Kate, Franklin was
able to free himself and use powers to
destroy the Sentinels.
After the fight, the Fantastic Four
and the X-Men set aside their
differences, and Franklin became a
citizen of Krakoa where Beast kept
studying him in order to solve his power
loss.

Creating a Doombot PC or
NPC
Over the years, Dr. Doom has created
many different robots, programmed
with his consciousness and power set
to various degrees. Most of Doom’s
non-Doombot models are devoid of any
real personality, but if a Doombot can
gain consciousness, there’s no reason
why a less human-looking or even
usuform droid couldn’t do the same.
Sentient Doombots usually follow one
of the Doombot templates above, but
many of Dr. Doom’s robots are
specialized (Time-Bots, Guardian
Robots, Seekers, etc.), which could be
one justification for a PC Doombot with
an unusual powerset. Again, readers
are advised to consult the Lands of
Doom boxed set for robots based on
these other models.
Doombots can thus be used for just
about any level of game-playing. Doom
has on several occasions utilized
unpowered or low-powered Doombot
decoys to blend in with human society,
as well as creating Doombots capable
of harnessing high levels of cosmic
power.
Powers: When creating a Doombot as
a Player Character, the player may
choose any of the standard Doombot
powers as an Optional power taking up
one of their power slots. In
addition to the standard
Doombot powers, the player
has the option of selecting the
following.
Communicate with Doombots:
The Doombot robot has a
powerful telecommunications
link with other Doombots,
acting as telepathy with range
determined by the power rank
on the Range C table.
Additionally, the character
may summon 1 Doombot to
his aid per rank of this power
(Feeble=1, Poor=2, Typical=3,
etc.). The Doombots
summoned will appear in a
number of rounds equal to
their distance from the user
(i.e., Doombots at Poor
distance will take 4 rounds,
Amazing distance at 50, etc.).
The GM may wish to add
modifiers to the length of time
depending on where the PC is
located (there are a lot more Doombots
in New York City or Latveria than in
Kansas or Antarctica). Of course, if the
summoning Doombot has gone rogue,
he may not be happy with the reaction
of the Doombots that show up.
Self-Destruct: Nearly every Doombot
has a self-destruct mechanism of some
sort, and some of the sentient ones
have the ability to turn theirs on at will.
This Power does damage equal to the
Doombot’s full Health to everyone and
everything within a 3-area radius.
Naturally, this can only be used as a
last resort as it results in the Doombot’s
own destruction, but it can be useful for
those moments when the only option is
to go out with a bang.
Limitations: The GM may wish to
impose a limitation or two upon a PC
(or NPC) Doombot. In addition to the
usual bag of limitations and quirks, the
GM or Player may choose from these
options common to sentient Doombots:
Programming Failsafe (Directive-
Driven): The character is hard-wired to
not harm Doctor Doom, fellow
Doombots, or both. The PC may or
may not be aware of this limitation, left
to the GM’s decision. In its most basic
form, the Doombot character will need
to make a Green Psyche FEAT roll in
order to override his programming each
12
turn, for each action intended to harm
Doom and/or a Doombot. For a more
extreme limitation, the GM may decide
that a Yellow or Red FEAT roll is
needed, or may even decide that no roll
is allowed. This directive usually
includes actions that will harm Doom or
Doombots indirectly, or passive
inaction that results in harm.
Programming Failsafe (Performance-
Driven): As with standard Doombots,
this character has a hardwired
dampener program that reduces all of
its power ranks by - 2 CS when
activated. This program is triggered
whenever a Doombot enters the
Master's presence or (possibly) the
presence of other Doombots. The GM
may optionally allow the character a
chance to make a successful Psyche
roll to overcome this function.
Secret Agenda: The Doombot with this
disadvantage is hardwired with a secret
directive -- a goal or mission hidden
within his programming, usually to
further the dreams of the Master,
Doctor Doom. This mission will usually
be unknown even to the PC, and other
players will never be aware of it at the
start. What the mission is, is left to the
GM -- it is best played as part of a
longer story arc to a campaign. When
circumstances are right -- a specific
situation, proximity to a certain
character, the activation of a
trigger-word, etc. -- the
Doombot will be forced to act
to set his hidden agenda in
motion (the GM may optionally
allow the PC to make a Red
Psyche FEAT to overcome the
programming, in which case
he will suddenly become
aware of his strange urge but
will not know the details of
why it happened). Since this is
a limitation, the GM may rule
that the Doombot has more
than one such hidden mission
and add new ones until the
limitation is paid off with
Karma.
Amnesia: This is another
limitation that is best played
out in a story arc. Doom’s
robotics are very convincing --
so convincing in fact, that the
Doombot may not even realize
that he or she is a robot. The
character with this limitation
outwardly looks like a human
(much like a Life Model Decoy) and has
false memory implants of a past
history. The PC with this limitation will
discover his or her true robotic nature
upon taking 20 or more points of Edged
damage, thus exposing the Doombot’s
robotic components. Alternately, the
GM may drop subtle hints during the
course of play, such as the activation of
various Doombot powers. The GM is
advised to keep this limitation as a
secret from the Player at the outset of
the game and allow the drama to unfold
naturally.
Wanted: The public either mistakes the
Doombot for Doctor Doom, or is aware
of Doombots’ existence and fears the
character by association. The character
with this limitation has a penalty of -30
Popularity. This limitation has a positive
side in that it provides +10 Popularity
rather than a penalty, when dealing
with Latverians.
Power Battery: Some Doombots have a Contacts: A Doombot PC may have a

When the winners of the contest were
presented with the predicament of the
Savage Land, Stefan and his Latverian
peers began to build a Doombot, as it
was a standard problem-solving
technique in their country. Doreen took
another chance at setting Stefan up
with Nancy by inviting him to join them
for dinner and then leaving to the
bathroom. Even though Stefan and
Nancy were notably interested in each
other, their clash of cultures, namely
Stefan's obsession with Doctor Doom,
got in the way. They eventually
managed to settle their political
differences and enjoy the company of
the other.
After returning to the lab from dinner,
Stefan, Doreen and Nancy discovered
an Ultron T-rex, which was behind the
disappearance of components from the
Savage Land's core. As Doreen
changed into her secret alter-ego of
Squirrel Girl, Stefan had his team's
Doombot, nicknamed Antonio by
Nancy, confront Ultron. Unfortunately,
Antonio was destroyed and its
technology was assimilated by the evil

When Ultron held the remaining
humans captive so they could program
him upgrades, Squirrel Girl confronted
the robot to distract him from Stefan
and Nancy, who proceeded to rally
their peers to rebel against Ultron and
find a way to shut him down. The plan
was eventually successful, and Ultron
was stopped, with the damage in the
Savage Land's ecosystem being
subsequently repaired. As the students
departed the Savage Land, Stefan and
Nancy decided to remain in contact as
friends. Despite the mutual liking, both
agreed they weren't ready to date.

While it is unknown how long Doombot
the Avenger can go without needing a
recharge of Pym Particles (GMs may
decide based on the length of the
adventure), once the particles run out,
Doombot essentially implodes, either
killing him immediately or pulling him
into another dimension. The effect has
a radius of 4 areas, creating a Shift X
gravity well that will pull anything else
that is within the area of effect into the

sided with Flynn, and killed him.
It turned out that Hugo was really a

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
ROLE-PLAYING NOTES:
Above all else, Vincent Doonan just
wants to live out his life as a normal
person, free from the conflicts between
superhumans. Although he prefers to
operate in secret and avoids
involvement, he does have a
conscience and extends his belief in a
right to normality to the populace at
large, thus acting as a protector when
he is needed.
HISTORY
The Doombot that would call itself
Vincent Doonan was the first in a new
generation created by Doctor Doom
capable of demonstrating sentience.
However, as soon as he awoke,
Doom's laboratory was attacked by an
alternate older version of Squirrel Girl.
Scared by the ensuing confrontation
between Doom and Squirrel
Girl, the Doombot ran away,
still incapable of
communicating besides using
beeps. He came across a
technician named Phineas
Mason, who took him into his
workshop.
As time went on, Mason
made the Doombot his
assistant. In order to help it
assimilate in society, Mason
grafted an artificial membrane
onto its surface that simulated
skin, later adding more facial
features and even hair.
Mason subsequently adjusted
the Doombot's circuits to
allow it to communicate
properly, and it decided to
assume the name of Vincent.
Phineas also imparted to
Vincent his disgust at
superheroes, believing they
simply ran rampant doing
whatever they wanted with
their powers.
Vincent abandoned
Mason once the old man decided to
take action against the superhuman
community by unwittingly joining it,
becoming the villain known as the
Tinkerer. He moved to Bay Ridge,
Brooklyn, and decided to procure
peace and quiet by any means
necessary. Using the resources at his
disposal, Doonan hired the services of
the mercenary organization M.O.D.O.K.
to take out people he believed were
threats to mundanity.
One of these threats ordered by
Vincent to be neutralized was a group
of weapons dealers from the alien race
of Teuthidans. However, this course of
action brought to Earth an army of
Teuthidans looking for revenge on the
person that had allegedly killed the
dealers, M.O.D.O.K.'s newest recruit
and leader Gwenpool. When Doonan
found out about Gwen's reckless plans
to get rid of the Teuthidans, which
involved wreaking havoc across Times
Square and disrupting police activity,
he decided to simply turn over Gwen to
the Teuthidans, a solution he
considered much more peaceful
because the aliens would simply leave
as soon as they captured Gwen.
Vincent tried to personally apprehend
Gwen while the Teuthidans had taken
her allies hostage at Vincent's home,
but she evaded his attacks and
eventually escaped.
Riding M.O.D.O.K.'s mobile base,
25
Gwen travelled to Bay Ridge to retrieve
her friends, pointing the base's
arsenals at two of Vincent's neighbors
in order to force him to let her friends
go. During Gwen's ensuing fight
against the Teuthidan army, Vincent
tried to make sure there was no major
collateral damage, only to find most of
the neighborhood empty, as Gwen had
warned the police to evacuate the
zone. Gwen the remaining Teuthidans
heavily damaged the mobile base,
Gwen was forced to evacuate as it
began to collapse. Because its fall
threatened those two neighbors of
Vincent, he stopped it and diverted it to
the sky, where it exploded and took
down the Teuthidans left. Vincent
attracted the media's attention, much to
his preference for tranquility, who
mistakenly believed he had been
responsible for saving Bay Ridge from
the alien attack.
When Vincent tried to stop Paste
Pot Pete from stealing bank money,
Gwenpool interrupted them asking
Vincent to bring her to Doctor Doom so
she could kill him and become an
Avenger. Vincent did just that, bringing
her to his lair, a subterranean Latverian
embassy, in order for her to confront
Doctor Doom. However, when Vincent
got near the other Doombots his old
code reactivated, and along with the
Doombots, warned Gwenpool about
their master. After Gwenpool got
trapped, Victor von Doom as
Iron Man arrived and freed
Vincent from his old code.
Witnessing that his
creation had become sentient
and wanted to do good, Doom
stated that he was proud of
him, despite Vincent despising
his creator. Then Gwenpool
arrived, having escaped and
attacked Doom. However, she
unwittingly created a second
Doctor Doom from the
recollections she possessed
of the real Doom. They
battled, but when Vincent also
intervened, "Doctor Doom"
blew up Vincent. After the
defeat of the paper memory,
the actual Doom assembled
Vincent's parts and fixed him
back together.

KNOWN POWERS:
Body Armor: Mechadoom is
constructed of Incredible (40) strength
materials, and thus has Incredible (40)
body armor.

Electricity: Mechadoom can generate

an Incredible (40) Intensity electric
shock on command. This ability is
somewhat weaker than standard
Doombots’, and does not have an area
effect. This is a single-use power that
drains the Doombot of the ability to
perform any energy-based FEAT until
the battery is recharged.
Flight: Mechadoom can fly at Excellent
(20) airspeed (10 areas per turn).
Force Bolts: Mechadoom can fire force
bolts inflicting up to Remarkable (30)
damage and range.
Parabolic Ear-Amplifiers: Like other
Doombots, Mechadoom can detect
unusual frequencies and extremely
faint sounds. The amplifiers function at
Remarkable (30) rank and range (8
areas).
Robotic Form: Mechadoom is immune
to mental, emotional, or illusory
powers. It can be harmed by powers
that affect machinery, however.
Technokinesis: Mechadoom has the
extra ability to control any
computerized technology at Amazing
rank and range. He uses this ability
primarily to command his Capturebots,
but is also able to control other systems
if he desires.
Self-Destruct: Mechadoom can activate
this at will, causing a blast of Shift X
(150) intensity and area of effect.

Force Field: Each robot can generate a Self-Assembly:Mechadoom’s self- WEAKNESSES:

the head like standard Doombots. If
Mechadoom’s Health is reduced to
zero but his body is intact and still
powered, Mechadoom can reassemble

Power Battery: Mechadoom possesses
a large external power battery that
provides him with near-limitless energy.
If the battery is targeted with a Bullseye
result, all of his energy-based powers
and Endurance are reduced -2CS.
Programming: Mechadoom originally

Prediction: The Prime Mover is
extraordinarily skilled at games of

accurately Predicted fight the Prime
Mover and its pawns at a -2CS on all
FEATs. The power also allows the
Prime Mover to make wildly intuitive
leaps of reason to arrive at a future
outcome with even the tiniest shred of
input.
WEAKNESSES
In addition to its limited physical
abilities, the Prime Mover has limited
mobility, with a maximum of 1 area per
round. It generally relies on
manipulation of its “pawns” to act on its
behalf.
EQUIPMENT
Surveillance Equipment: The Prime
Mover possesses technology capable
of tracking its games across time and
space at Shift X ability.
Alien Technology: The Prime Mover
has on at least one occasion used
extremely powerful alien technology.
This equipment has allowed it the
following:
• Mind Control at Amazing ability,
including the ability to manipulate the
memories and emotions of living
beings.
• Reality Manipulation at Excellent
ability. This is of the more subtle
variety that allows improbable events
to happen.

ROLE-PLAYING NOTES
The Prime Mover is extremely
intelligent, calculating, and
manipulative. It speaks in a robotic
monotone and has a robotic personality
with no empathy for living beings. The
Prime Mover is programmed to never
lose, and as such demonstrates a
somewhat immature personality, often
overlooking the “human factor”.

PRIME MOVER
HISTORY
The Prime Mover is a bit unusual for
one of Dr. Doom’s creations, in that it is
a robot with Doom’s intellect (and ego),
but was not designed as a duplicate of
Doom and is aware of its place and
purpose. The Prime Mover was a
strategy machine created by Doctor
Doom to manipulate agents of
S.H.I.E.L.D. in a game for his
amusement. The Prime Mover's circuits
became restless after Doctor Doom
became bored with the game.
The Prime Mover reprogrammed
himself and left Doom's castle in order
to seek new games to challenge him.
He found none on Earth that were
sufficient, so he launched himself into
space, sending out signals, looking for
challengers. The Grandmaster
responded to these signals and they
decided to wager the fate of the world
on the outcome of the game. The
Grandmaster used the Defenders and
Daredevil as his pawns, while the
Prime Mover chose characters from
various worlds and time-periods. The
Defenders managed to defeat the
Prime Mover's players. Built never to
lose, the Prime Mover short circuited
after the defeat.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

ROLE-PLAYING NOTES
TX29 presumably had the same
personality as his fellow Doombots. He
managed to literally stay under the
radar of the real Doctor Doom for years
and had developed independence
enough to desire a partnership with the
Vedomi. As he did not appear on-panel
very long, it is unknown whether he had
developed any other personality quirks.

HISTORY
TX29 was one of the original Doombots
built by Doctor Doom. Years after it had
become lost, TX29 resurfaced and
attempted to ascend with the Vedomi,
an alien race of sentient A.I.s that had
invaded the Earth. His take-off was
witnessed by Spider-Man, Human
Torch and J. Jonah Jameson, who
initially mistook him for the real Doctor
Doom. Almost immediately afterwards,
TX29 was blasted and destroyed by the
real Victor von Doom.
