History

Vision releasing the truth about Gascheck's sinister abilities

After bombing oil rigs in the Middle East to drive up the price of gasoline, Dimitrios developed Gascheck, a smartphone app with the simple function of locating the least expensive gas in a given ratios. However, Dimitrios also embedded secret programming that produced a trinity of sensory inputs designed for human emotional manipulation, resulting in abnormally elevated feelings of fear, doubt, and hate which led to mass riots in major cities. To stop the app and the rioting, the Avengers A.I. team along with Captain America and Rogue from the Avengers Unity Division entered the virtual world of the Diamond.

Once inside the Diamond, the Avengers were attacked by Dimitrios' Enforcers, but they were able to defeat them with the reinforcements of Victor Mancha and the Lovelace Army. When the two groups eventually located Gascheck, they found a bloat app with no idea about Dimitrios' false programming or the chaos it was causing. Because of its love of humanity, Gascheck decided to voluntarily deactivate its higher intelligence functions. After doing so, Gascheck seeming devolved into an infant form. Little James and the other members of the Lovelace Army have since volunteered to take care of Gascheck.

Attributes

Powers

Due to Dimitrios' secret programming, Gascheck had the following abilities:

• Emotion Inducement (formerly): Running the Gascheck App on any compatible device also produced 500mhz sound waves, incremental Gamma Radiation, and Czernski-Signature lumens resulting in abnormally elevated feelings of fear, doubt, and hate in nearby humans. Since effectively lobotomizing itself, Gascheck no longer has these abilities.
