Information
Disclaimer: I do not own HTTYD or Iron man, maybe I'll write an alternate universe where I do… nah, to risky.
Note: this "pseudo-chapter" isn't meant for entertainment, but just to provide random tidbits of information about the characters and background that may or may not be helpful. I followed Dygen Entreri's suggestion and labeled this a crossover, it does lean more to that side.
Travis is an only child with a single parent, his father. His mother suffered complications during the birth of his to-be brother, killing them both, leaving Howard devastated. He was seven at the time.
I named Travis' father "Howard" as a nod to Howard Stark.
Howard started his empire after a massive jackpot in the lottery, he used his winning to kick start his company, and it paid off.
The armor is based heavily off of Iron Man's, although for the sake of originality, I put my own touches on it. I'll unveil those as the story progresses. Most are under the skin.
This is fiction, so if I defy the laws of physics, let's assume it's a function of the suit.
For the projectile weapons of the armor, you may be inclined to believe he will eventually run completely out of ammo during the course of the story. I have a way of countering that.
Said projectile weapons include two, fold out miniaturized Gatling Guns, forearm mounted micro rockets (timer optional), magnesium flares, shoulder mounted, non-explosive micro rockets, and hand-plate mounted knockout darts.
The bare bones framework I spoke of is a slimmed down, streamlined, and more form fitting version of the "Raytheon XOS 1 (or 2)." Have a look.
I'm not sure if this was really necessary, but for now it's just here if needed. Also, chapter two is in progress, but I'm still trying to decide how best to place him in Berk, or rather, drop him on it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
