Stark had just come off a long-term relationship with Mafia-princess Whitney Frost and was looking to begin his social life once again. Stark was somewhat bored by the party, but his attention was quickly captured by the presence of a stunning red head surrounded by potential suitors.</p><p></p><p>Bethany shortly afterwards became Stark's girlfriend. Bethany revealed to Stark that she was a bodyguard working for Cabe & McPherson Security Specialists with her best friend, Ling McPherson. Bethany accompanied Stark to Atlantic City. There Stark was targeted for assassination by three supervillains: the Melter, Blizzard, and Whiplash. During the very public attack, Stark was seriously injured. However, Bethany stepped in to save him, providing a temporary distraction sufficient for Stark's security team to hustle their boss to safety.</p><p></p><p>By this time, Stark had begun to drink heavily, and was on his first alcoholic binge. At Stark's darkest moment, Bethany gave her love, support and friendship, all of which was instrumental in helping Stark to overcome his addiction. It was also during this time that Bethany revealed that she had been previously married to a German Diplomat named Alexander Von Tilburg who had a similar substance addiction with drugs. Bethany explained her regret and guilt at deserting Tilburg when he needed her the most, and how Tilburg had died in a car accident. Bethany believed that if she had remained with him, he would still be alive today.</p><p></p><p>Once Stark was off the bottle, Bethany resumed her relationship with Stark and became his closest confidante. Shortly afterwards, Stark came into conflict with the spurned Whitney Frost. Frost hired the supervillain Spymaster to kidnap Bethany. Bethany was delivered to the jealous Frost, who, in a fit of rage, attempted to gun down Cabe, but was overcome in the process. This incident heralded the start of the long-term enmity between Bethany Cabe and Whitney Frost.</p><p></p><p>After a trip to the Caribbean where Bethany and Tony Stark finally seemed to find happiness, Bethany arrived home to news that her husband was still alive and being held somewhere in East Germany. Bethany was determined to rescue him, and became secretive and cagey towards Stark. Cabe eventually travelled to Germany where she was captured and held prisoner at a high-tech installation known as Der Hand Von Himmel, or Heaven's Hand. The American Dreamer went to rescue her per Stark's request, and did battle with the Living Laser.</p><p></p><p>Once the American Dreamer and Bethany had returned to the United States, Bethany informed Stark that she was returning to her husband and that, therefore, her relationship with Stark was over. Stark went into another alcoholic binge shortly afterwards which was far more severe this time. Some years later, Bethany decided to officially end her relationship with Alex Von Tilburg. However, Tilburg was killed via a drug overdose. Bethany did not return for some time.</p><p></p><p>Stark has since recruited Bethany as his new Head of Security at Stark Enterprises. In this capacity, Bethany has thrived. She convinced Stark to use his personal arms division to design her some equipment to help her secure Stark’s interests, and test them in order to put them on all of Stark’s security guards. The first suit has recently been completed, The Personal Fortress Mark I, and it appears to be a light-weight suit of combat armor. In reality, it is made with hyper-dense material that adjusts to the form of the wearer, basically acting as an outer-layer of super-thick muscle, granting the wearer some degree of protection, as well as super-strength. The team has recently added a life-support system when they realized this armor was far too dense to ever float properly…if Bethany needs to cross bodies of water, she will walk. The helmet is the least technological piece of the whole suit. It is basically a specially designed pressure-glass that gives her a full field of vision, while keeping the pressure of deep sea, or even space travel at bay.</p><p></p><p>The other amazing gadget put together by Stark Enterprises for Bethany is a hi-tech shield. The Bastion Mark 2 generates a field that absorbs most kinds of energy, and converts it to power that can charge the shields two primary weapons: a stun field that disrupts the nervous system of its victims, and a force beam that blast from the end of the shield.</p><p></p><p>Recently, Bethany has taken to wearing the armor on her days off, spreading good PR for Stark Enterprises and doing good deeds. Bethany has set up defenses around her emotions equally powerful to the armor Stark has provided her with, afraid to get too close to Stark again, but unable to resist both his charismatic desire to better the world, and his resources that actually provide her with the technology to do it.[/sblock]</p><p><span style="font-size: 15px">Stronghold</span></p><p><strong>Real Name:</strong> Bethany Cabe</p><p><strong>Occupation:</strong> Head of Security for Stark Enterprises</p><p></p><p><strong>Combat Abilities (37 points)</strong></p><p>Base Attack Bonus: +8</p><p>Base Defense Bonus: +2</p><p>Initiative: +3</p><p>Melee Attack: +9 punch (+10 nonlethal)</p><p>Melee Attack: +9 shield stun (+6 Stun)</p><p>Ranged Attack: +10 force beam (+6 nonlethal)</p><p>Defense: 17</p><p>Flat-Footed Defense: 11</p><p>Toughness: +5 (4 impervious)/Absorption (energy) 8</p><p>Fortitude: +4</p><p>Reflex: +6</p><p>Will: +3</p><p>Move: 30</p><p></p><p><strong>Abilities (20 points)</strong></p><p>Strength 14(30)/+10</p><p>Dexterity 16/+3</p><p>Constitution 12/+1</p><p>Intelligence 14/+2</p><p>Wisdom 12/+1</p><p>Charisma 12/+1</p><p></p><p><strong>Skills (24 Points)</strong></p><p>Acrobatics (10) +13</p><p>Bluff (10) +11</p><p>Climb (10) +12</p><p>Disable Device (10) +8 (no tools)</p><p>Drive (10) +13</p><p>Intimidate (15) +16</p><p>Knowledge (tactics) (5) +7</p><p>Medicine (10) +7 (no tools)</p><p>Notice (11) +12</p><p>Search (10) +12</p><p>Sense Motive (15) +16</p><p></p><p><strong>Feats (6 points)</strong></p><p>Attack focus (melee)</p><p>Attack specialization (force beam)</p><p>Defensive attack</p><p>Improved defense 2</p><p>Precise shot</p><p></p><p><u><strong>Powers (68 points)</strong></u></p><p><strong>Personal Fortress Armor Mark 1:</strong> Device 8 (hard to lose): Density 8 (flaws-permanent), enhanced strength 16; Protection 4 (extras-impervious); Immovable 2; Super-Strength 2; x5 mass); Immunity 9 (Life Support); Communication 3 (radio, extras-area, power feats-selective);</p><p><strong>Bastion Shield Mark 2:</strong> Device 12 (easy to lose): Absorption 8 (energy, boost stun/blast power, extras-total fade, power feats-slow fade); Shield 5; Stun 6 (power feats-sedation, alternate power: Blast 6)</p><p></p><p>Drawbacks: Normal Identity: Bethany Cabe (full minute to change into armor) +5 points</p><p>Tradeoffs: +3 toughness/-3 defense</p><p></p><p>Stats as Bethany Cabe</p><p>[sblock]</p><p><strong>Occupation: Head of Security for Stark Enterprises</strong></p><p></p><p><strong>Combat Abilities (24 points)</strong></p><p>Base Attack Bonus: +4</p><p>Base Defense Bonus: +4</p><p>Initiative: +3</p><p>Melee Attack: +5 punch (+2 nonlethal)</p><p>Defense: 14</p><p>Flat-Footed Defense: 12</p><p>Toughness: +1</p><p>Fortitude: +4</p><p>Reflex: +6</p><p>Will: +4</p><p>Move: 30</p><p></p><p><strong>Abilities (20 points)</strong></p><p>Strength 14/+2</p><p>Dexterity 16/+3</p><p>Constitution 12/+1</p><p>Intelligence 14/+2</p><p>Wisdom 12/+1</p><p>Charisma 12/+1</p><p></p><p><strong>Skills (24 Points)</strong></p><p>Acrobatics (10) +13</p><p>Bluff (10) +11</p><p>Climb (10) +12</p><p>Disable Device (10) +8 (no tools)</p><p>Drive (10) +13</p><p>Intimidate (15) +16</p><p>Knowledge (tactics) (5) +7</p><p>Medicine (10) +7 (no tools)</p><p>Notice (11) +12</p><p>Search (10) +12</p><p>Sense Motive (15) +16</p><p></p><p><strong>Feats (6 points)</strong></p><p>Attack focus (melee)</p><p>Attack specialization (force beam)</p><p>Defensive attack</p><p>Improved defense 2</p><p>Precise shot[/sblock]</p></blockquote><p></p>
