Aziz

Iran's most prominent and public superhero, the armored Aziz, is truly “old-school” in that he (most presume Aziz is a man) maintains a secret identity. Indeed, given the full-body suit of power armor he wears, there’s even speculation that Aziz is actually an alien, a robot, or even a woman! The electronically filtered voice that speaks from within the armor gives no clues.   In truth, Aziz is Tariq Hamidi, a young Iranian man with technopathic powers that have enabled him to cobble together his battlesuit and keep it operational. Although Tariq has a mechanical engineering degree, he’s not the brilliant inventor many think Aziz must be; his powers allow him to make intuitive leaps and even psychokinetically refashion existing technology, given time.   Western nations are concerned Aziz might be a technological genuis willing to aid or advance the Iranian weapons program, and the Supreme Leader would like to see this happen, but the truth is that Tariq is a reformer and wants only to help people with his abilities. He has steadfastly refused any government “patronage” and operates on his own. For the time being, he’s far too popular with public for the government to interfere with him directly, but the existence of such a free agent remains a concern.   Recently, Aziz has interacted and worked a great deal with the mysterious Kahina and is even becoming infatuated with her, although Tariq doesn’t know if Kahina is truly a woman (or even human) any more than most people know the same about him.
