History

When Irony Man retired, he invoked the Miss Terious/Sir Prize Act of 1966, which stated that any attempt by a resigning member to nominate a new person with an unrevealed identity and hidden secrets to replace them had to be accepted. Thus, Irony Man II joined the LNH, quietly on a search for the Messiah of Sincerity.

When the Dorfs invaded, Irony Man II used dramatic irony to reveal to the audience that she was from the future, and had secured the original Irony Man's support by giving the Dorfs a mindscan that they would have taken forcibly, killing Toony in the process.

The time she was waiting for came, in Flame Wars Final. She had been sent from the 1,992nd century, the Advance Agent of the Intergalactic Network of Intelligent Beings and Celestial Bodies, to smoke out the murderer of the Messiah of Sincerity. The Messiah was needed to not just stop, but recruit The Laziness against the power of the Serious Business.

Afterwards, she stayed in the 21st century, for personal reasons. She renamed herself to Betamax, for reasons both deep and convoluted, and became the Legion's resident armored tech hero.

Personality

Friendly, but has a certain difficulty understanding people, both because of her distance from present-day culture, and because of consciously cultivated thought patterns.

Powers and Abilities

Wears a suit of highly advanced armor with various technological accoutrements.

Appearance

Irony Man II by ohhicas.

She has long dark hair and dark eyes, with highly defined lines but of a vague ethnicity. She is tall and highly muscular.

As Irony Man II, her armor was smooth and streamlined, in tones of dark, gunmetal gray and the lighter gray of titanium alloy, with an expressionless faceplate.

As Betamax, her armor is composed of smooth plates, most of them gunmetal gray, blue on the gloves and boots, with a shining white breastplate, a blue circle on the left panel, a blue square on the right, and a blank blue faceplate.

While hiding her identity, spoke in a highly synthesized voice. Without modification, her voice is rich, cool, rough, yet distinctly feminine.

Relationships
