Personality

Tony is intensely curious, proud, and confident in his own intellect. The discovery of magic does not repel him; he treats it as an unexplored research path and quickly becomes determined to understand its principles and combine it with technology. He openly admits to enjoying recognition when it is deserved. 482 483

His captivity and Ethan's apparent death force him to confront the consequences of Stark weapons. He shifts from weapon development toward protecting others, improving his armor, and accepting the wider responsibility attached to magic. 467 470 483
