History[]
Toni Stark travelled to Afghanistan in an expedition to show the American troops stationed there her new weapons and how much they will cost. But they were suddenly ambushed by terrorists (hired by the Ten Rings), which led to near-fatal injury. The terrorist cell abbducted Toni to force her to make weapons for him. Her co-captive, a renowned Asian doctor, placed an Arc Reactors in her chest to keep her heart pumping, Toni thanked her and they made a suit of armor to help Toni escape, though the doctor sacrificed herself to protect Toni.
After fighting her way out, Toni was rescued by American soldiers and returned to America, where she changed her company's policy by ceasing the manufacturing of offensive weaponry. She created a new suit of armor to be more streamlined and used it to get revenge on the terrorist cell who held her captive, she also becomes aware of the Ten Rings being led by an individual known as "Lady Mandarin". Upon returning home, she became known to the public as "Iron Maiden", and soon she revealed her identity to the press.
