**Dr. Robert Bruce Banner** was an American nuclear physicist who was world renowned for his work in the field. Banner was part of a secret government taskforce that was meant to create weapons out of gamma radiation. After an accident with one of the weapons, Banner was transformed into a giant green monster that was called **The Hulk**. Banner and his new superpowered persona then spent the next few years on the run before eventually joining the Avengers and receiving clemency.

## Powers, Skills, Abilities, Techniques

### Powers

**Hulk transformations**: As a result of being hit by the gamma bomb, Bruce gained the ability to transform into the Hulk, or several incarnations of the Hulk.

* **Savage Hulk**: The original version of the Hulk and one of the most prevalent, this version of the Hulk is nearly mindless and acts only on instinct. This version of the Hulk has a near limitless amount of strength depending on its anger. This version of the Hulk represents Bruce’s child self. It can understand human speech but is unable to speak coherently besides a few words and phrases. The Savage Hulk has no specific conditions for it to arrive, however, when the other versions of the Hulk get angry they sometimes regress into this form.
	+ Unlimited Strength
	+ Superhuman Stamina
	+ Super Durability
	+ Super Speed
	+ Advanced Healing Factor
	+ Radiation Manipulation
	+ **World-Breaker Hulk**: The World Breaker Hulk is a sub-transformation of the Savage Hulk. The World Breaker occurs when the Hulk’s rage breaches its threshold and Bruce stops holding back. The level of power that the World Breaker has is so great that he poses a threat to the galaxy. The World Breaker appears incapable of speech. Because of the conditions that are needed for this form to be released, it is rarely released.

* **“Incredible” Hulk**: One of the primary versions of the Hulk, this version of the Hulk has the strength of the Savage Hulk but is more intelligent, however not as intelligent as Bruce. This Hulk has its own personality distinct from Banner and seems to hate Bruce. This Hulk states that he wants to be left alone but has a heroic side. Hulk eventually made a deal with Bruce that he will act as a force of good and share their body. Bruce often projects himself in the Hulk’s mind to help him. This Hulk often appears as it has the same conditions as the Savage Hulk, with greater intelligence.
	+ **Green Scar**: While trapped on Sakaar, the Hulk developed a new personality that wanted nothing more than to fight in the arena. This version of the Hulk was a clear derivation of the Incredible Hulk but had the hedonism of Joe Fixit and the intelligence of Bruce Banner. This incarnation of the Hulk would lead the revolt against the Red King, rule Sakaar, and later lead the invasion of Earth. Because of the events of World War Hulk the Green Scar would regress into the Savage Hulk and turn into the World-breaker. This incarnation has never been seen again as both Bruce and the other Hulks despise it.
* **Gray Hulk**: This version of the Hulk is smaller, weaker, and has a gray skin tone. While comparable to the Savage Hulk in mindset, the Gray Hulk appears to be somewhat more intelligent as it can speak more and is somewhat crafty. It only appears at night, or at least prefers the night. This incarnation is rarely seen as the Joe Fixit sub-personality often overtakes it.
	+ Super Strength
	+ Superhuman Stamina
	+ Super Durability
	+ Super Speed
	+ Advanced Healing Factor
	+ Radiation Manipulation
	+ **Joe Fixit**: Joe Fixit is a subset of the Gray Hulk which has an intelligence comparable to the Incredible Hulk, but has a separate personality that is hedonistic and self-serving. While the Incredible Hulk is heroic (even if it doesn’t like to admit it), Joe Fixit is completely self-serving and only willing to do heroic deeds if it helps him. Joe’s personality is analogous to that of a mobster. While not often seen because of its limited strength compared to other Hulks, it does come out because of its craftiness allowing it to outsmart the others and it often suppresses its parent incarnation. It has been observed that if Joe Fixit’s anger reaches a certain point it can regress into the savage version of the Gray Hulk.

* **Merged Hulk/Professor Hulk**: This version of the Hulk has the mind of Bruce Banner and the strength of the Incredible Hulk. Its base strength is more than either the Savage Hulk or Incredible Hulk, but it doesn’t get much stronger when angered. Bruce has to attempt to maintain this form as it isn’t a “natural” incarnation and is instead the product of his attempt to reign in the Hulk. Because of the deal that Bruce made with the Incredible Hulk, this form is considered obsolete as it isn’t as strong and Bruce can still influence the Hulk.

	+ Super Durability
	+ Super Speed
	+ Advanced Healing Factor
	+ Radiation Manipulation
	+ **Doc Green**: If Bruce wasn’t careful when trying to use the Merged Hulk persona, the Doc Green incarnation will surface. This version has the same base as the Merged Hulk but has the personality of Joe Fixit. While still nominally heroic, Doc Green is far more self-serving than others. Bruce feared that Doc Green would become the Maestro and relies on the other Hulks to hold this transformation down while he is the Merged Hulk to prevent it from surfacing.
* **Guardian Hulk**: Emerging from Bruce’s need/want of a good father figure, this version of the Hulk appears when Bruce is injured or needs protection. This Hulk is more intelligent than the Incredible Hulk but is just as strong and has its own personality. While not malevolent this version of the Hulk appears to only care about making sure that Bruce and the Savage Hulk are safe (It sees the Savage Hulk as a child to be protected, the others Hulks as either enemies or those who can protect themselves) and as such will not do the right thing if it means that either will be injured or disadvantaged.
* **Guilt Hulk**: This incarnation of the Hulk manifests to punish evildoers. It is comparable to the Guardian Hulk but has its own personality and goals and only appears at night. While it does punish evil, that doesn’t mean that it is heroic and in a way represents Bruce inflicting his guilt onto others and punishing them for it.
* **Devil Hulk**: The Devil Hulk is an incarnation of the Hulk that developed from Bruce’s negative side. This version of the Hulk is as strong as the Savage Hulk if not stronger, the intelligence of Bruce, self-serving like Joe Fixit, protective of Bruce and the Savage Hulk like the Guardian, and punishes evil-doers like the Guilt Hulk. This version of the Hulk despises humanity and often argues in favor of exterminating humanity with the justification that humans will wipe each other out anyhow. The Devil Hulk has a power over Bruce that allows him to essentially control and manipulate him if he ever wanted to but is content to wait for the chance to whenever the opportunity arises. The Devil Hulk is possibly the strongest version of the Hulk and can easily become the dominant one.
	+ Unlimited Strength

	+ Super Durability
	+ Super Speed
	+ Advanced Healing Factor
	+ Radiation Manipulation
	+ Godly Energy
	+ Immortality
	+ **Maestro**: The Maestro is an incarnation of the Hulk that will one day develop. In a possible future, a nuclear war occurred killing a majority of the world. The Hulk survived, but the Devil Hulk took over completely and evolved into the Maestro who ruled the wasteland with an iron fist. While the Maestro never appeared in the primary timeline, there are signs that he was beginning to develop. In 2099, the Devil Hulk appeared to be developing into the Maestro but his defeat by Spider-Man stopped this. Later with the final defeat of Dr. Doom in the 2100s, the Hulk had a final battle with Wolverine to prevent the Maestro from manifesting
