Pepper Potts (Earth-30)

* Blue

 **Tony isn't here, Helena!** He didn't leave a roadmap or a guide! Between the company and The Defenders, **I'm drowning!** So let me ask you, "**Queen Helena**," what would you have me do?!
—Rescue[src]
**Pepper Potts** is also known as **Rescue** by the general public. Born in New Jersey, Pepper would begin working for Tony Stark shortly after graduating from MIT with a master's. However, after Tony became Director of SHIELD and later disappeared, Pepper was appointed CEO of Stark Industries. At the same time, Manhattan came under siege, and with no Iron Man to protect it, Pepper reluctantly donned an Iron Man armor and became Rescue.

Before becoming Rescue, Pepper was a confidant to Tony and worked closely with him as Iron Man, establishing herself as a pillar in the superhero community. She became a founding member of The Defenders, which was why the members even came together. Since becoming Rescue, Pepper has gained her own rogues gallery consisting of Madame Masque, The Ghost, Justin Hammer, and most notably, Monica Eden.

Recently, after the return of Tony Stark, Pepper and he began a relationship. However, her attention began to be diverted elsewhere whenever she learned of the more expansive superhero community during the superhuman war against SHIELD. Pepper could not participate as Stark Industries had entered an arm's race with Dynamics Industries. Learning that there were more like her than simply The Defenders, Pepper became determined to gather them all and inspire Tony to do more than be a man in armor.

### Early Years

Virginia "Pepper" Potts was born to Miranda and Jeremy Potts, a working-class couple in Newark, New Jersey. She attended MIT and earned a Master's degree in Business Management. After completing college, Pepper started working at **Stark Industries**. She provided **Tony Stark** with crucial information about an under-the-table arms deal between Stark Industries and Stane International. Tony was impressed by Pepper's bravery in coming forward, and he appointed her as his right-hand and business handler.

### Entroducing...

#### Of Weapons & Geniuses

After Tony's disappearance in Afghanistan, Pepper became the voice of reason for Stark Industries. She wasn't officially given the title of CEO but essentially did most of Tony's duties. When he returned, however, Tony immediately told Pepper what had happened and showcased the prototype Iron Man armor he had created in the cave. With this revelation, Tony and Pepper began restructuring the company to stop selling weapons and move away from war profiteering.

Later, Pepper quarterbacked Tony during a mission he ran overseas as Iron Man, which caught Obadiah Stane's attention. Obadiah would recreate an Iron Man Armor for himself and went after Pepper and Tony. He went after Tony because he stopped selling weapons and went after Pepper because she stopped Obadiah's hostile takeover of Stark Industries. Tony defeated Obadiah with Pepper's help, and after a bit of encouragement from Pepper, Tony revealed his identity to the world.
