Just as clarification for me and my mollusc brain, am I good to stick him in the character hole?

Name: Timothy 'Tim' Jackson Drake
Age: 16
Alias: Red Robin
Alternative Appearance:



Skills:
  • Expert Detective Skills
  • Weapon Master
  • Marksmanship
  • Master Acrobat
  • Genius Level Intellect
  • Tactical Analysis
  • Charisma
  • Master Martial Artist
  • Master Escape Artist
  • Arsenal of Gadgets and Advanced Technology
  • Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant

    Tim, as the Robin that came after Jason Todd, received an extensive training regiment at the hands of multiple teachers to ensure that what destroyed his predecessor would not affect him. Bruce wanted to make sure that his protégé would be able to hold himself up in combat and successfully defend himself, leading to him traveling to Paris to train under Rahul Lama, a martial arts master. From here, he would eventually move on to Lady Shiva, whom he managed to beat in a sparring battle with the bo staff, which became his signature weapon. Under his trainers, Tim has accumulated a proficient skill in hand to hand combat and melee weapons, using the accumulated knowledge in a non-lethal way to assist himself as Robin. On top of his developed skill, Tim has earned (through vigorous workout sessions) some muscle definition, and while he doesn't match up to super strength, he is certainly able to defend himself. Additionally, he can withstand extended periods of physical activity due to his agility.

    Not everything needed to be ingrained into him, however; Tim is nothing less than a natural genius. He is an exceptional detective, having deduced the identities of both Bruce and Dick when he was just a young boy after watching Dick as Robin perform a move he saw him doing in the circus. Batman himself said that Tim has the potential to become a better detective than him.

    His high level of intelligence makes Tim a natural student and self-taught practitioner of many disciplines. He has studied computer science and is a highly skilled programmer and hacker. He has an in-depth knowledge of the natural sciences, which he puts to use in the crime lab. He has studied the behavioral sciences, specifically criminology, and is very well-read and literate.


Bio:
Jack Drake was the heir to the newly Fortune 500 company Drake Industries, and a well-respected archeologist and businessman both when he met fellow archeologist and historian Janet Draper, a fiercely beautiful – and fiercely intelligent – woman at an opening at the Archaeological Museum of Iraklion in Crete, Greece. The romance that followed was like something out of a modern day fairy tale, full of exotic locales, intriguing mysteries, royalty both modern and historical, grand parties, opulence, and, after three years of dating, an absolutely gorgeous wedding.

After their honeymoon tour of Europe, the newlyweds returned to Janet's home town, Gotham City and purchased an estate in the outskirts to build their dream home on. Their timing was good - just a few months after their new home’s completion, Jack and Janet had their first and only son: Timothy Jackson Drake.

Tim’s youngest years were spent mostly with a succession of nannies, as his parents had a habit of firing the last every time they returned home from their trips in order to look after him themselves. But, more absorbed in their work, both business and archeological, and each other than they were interested in Tim, Jack and Janet were rarely home for more than a total four or five months over an entire year, stopping home only for weeks or days at a time between trips. Even when they were home, their attention was largely occupied by something they deemed a higher priority. As the quality of the nannies hired tended to vary – Janet sometimes forgot to hire someone until the last minute, and didn’t have time to be choosy – Tim learned fast to look after himself as much as possible. He also learned to savor the time and attention his parents actually afforded him.

It was during one such instance that Jack and Janet brought a six year old Tim to see Haly’s Circus. It was there that the young and impressionable child met Dick Grayson, a member of the prestigious acrobatic group, The Flying Graysons. In hopes of calming his nerves, Tim was even granted a picture before the show. During the performance, however, tragedy struck as he witnessed the death of both Mary and John Grayson at the hands of an assumed system of faulty high wire.

Witnessing tragedy caused Tim to become more stoic in his emotional appearance, leading to a slightly disconnected relationship with his parents. Through this, many childlike traits dispersed into nothingness, and he gained a keen sense of observation.

Said skill would prove to come in handy in upcoming years. Tim was nine when he successfully deducted that Dick Grayson was Robin after witnessing him perform a move that only someone from The Flying Graysons would be able to complete, thus meaning that his adoptive figure, Bruce Wayne, was Batman. It was after this that Tim followed the pair closely, even though the eventual transition from Robin to Nightwing for Dick and Jason Todd’s accumulation of the position.

It was a while after the tragic death of Jason Todd that Tim realized Batman needed a Robin (due to the sudden reckless and aggressive that Batman portrayed, which defying traditional character traits), and concluded after Nightwing refused to take up the position that he would be an adequate fit. Both were not initially on board, however. It was not until after Bruce and Dick had been kidnapped and Tim, with the help of Alfred, rescued the pair that he was taken seriously in his proposition. Bruce eventually accepts under the condition that Tim endures extensive training to ensure that the fate of the previous Robin will not fall upon him as well.


WIP for now...I need to consult the rest of the Bat-fam before posting the complete version.

That is a very good question.

I could create a loose timeline if it’ll be useful utility for us, but for now we can assume that Jason (as Red Hood) has been active for a minimum of five years. This allows his “Under the Red Hood” shenanigans be done and over with and at this point Jason has been travelling around the world to figure out who he is. He may have only returned to Gotham recently to look over his old neighborhood and get things sorted without being a problem for Bruce. This suggest any working relationships he has with Tim Drake to possibly be minimal, but Tim has been operating for a few years now and was likely someone he has had an interaction or two with. I’d argue Jason has more of an opinion and rivalry with Dick, though.

I've been working some more things out, Damian will have been around for a little more than a year now, but he won't have been made Robin. If that happens at all it could be an IC thing.

As for the rest, I'm around if you wanna hash that out.

@Dblade26 It would be simpler to have Tim already under the Red Robin alias, but whatever works with you. If Damian has yet to claim the mantle of the Boy Wonder, then what is his status in light of his fathers dissapearance?

It's fine for Tim to have moved on to being Red Robin already, I'm just not sure Damian was officially made the new Robin. That said, with Bruce disappearing I'm pretty sure the only in-character response is for Damian to attempt to help patrol the streets in his own way. Possibly by appointing himself Robin anyways without an official go-ahead from Bruce.

As for his status in the family, Damian might occasionally daydream about going back to the League but Talia and Ra's have basically dumped him there for over a year now, he hasn't taken the opportunity to leave when he's had the chance and even if he started raiding Demon Fang hideouts to find the League or the others kicked him out now there'd be no guarantee he'd have anywhere to go, so he's part of it. Unless they all feel comfortable with a tiny, homeless assassin with skewed morals wandering the streets unsupervised.

@Ruby You said old continuity, but not exactly what time so I didn't put any bat-girl stuff. Seeing as @Dblade26 isn't making Damian a robin I'll probably stick with that.

Still a bit of a WIP.

I think that you can still make Steph a Batgirl if you want, personally. We're not strictly following continuity with this exactly or anything AFAIK, so Damian could not be Robin yet officially, but Steph can already be Batgirl. I kind of just didn't have him already in the position since talking it over with Ruby had us thinking that Damian taking the role for himself unsanctioned toward the beginning of the RP and then trying to grow into it could be good IC.

Nah, the more I think about it the more I like where she is now; Batman disappearing shortly after she reveals herself. Not to mention without Cass I don’t know who would vouch for her, and making Cass a NPC just isn’t something I want to do. She’ll probably stay as Spoiler throughout.

Approved.

Huntress likely keeps her distance from Spoiler. She might help her out from time to time if Spoiler needs it, but there's no sticking around to become friends. Because Huntress is kind of a bitch.

@Ruby With Batman being MIA, Tim is possibly the best Detective in Gotham City. How far do you want deducing to when it comes to the Huntress. I am not saying he should figure out her identity on the first post, but I need to know my limitations so I can avoid accidental godmodding.

Depends on how much they interact. Remember Guiseppe/Geppe Bertinelli is the public Don. Most believe Helena is just a legitimate cousin and some sort of back room asset, not the actual fucking boss. If it turns out Tim and Huntress work together often, yeah he'd probably figure it out.

Although Bruce knew, and was in on her "Crime Bible" plan.
