| ORIGIN & BACKSTORY: |
Due to his nature, the Joker suggested many possible origins for how he came to be. While most of these origins were strictly grounded in reality, they all contained at least some fantastical element.

Of the Joker's favorite origins was that he lived with his murderous Aunt Eunice. An abusive guardian, she washed his skin with bleach. Eventually this resulted in irreparable brain damage as well as the drainage of all pigmentation from his skin.

The most commonly accepted theory was that the man who would become the Joker had at some point been coerced into joining the Red Hood Gang. This man acted as a body double to Red Hood One and due to this, fell in a vat of chemicals during the Showdown at A.C.E. Chemical. The acid severely disfigured his skin and shattered his sanity, sending the man down the path to becoming the Joker. As the man who was the real Red Hood One was found dead after the Showdown, it was unknown if the body double killed him and took his spot or replaced him sometime during the Showdown.

A theory that began to arise in the later years of the Joker's activities was that he was actually the Pale Man of Gotham City. This more supernatural take on the Joker's past perpetuated that at some point prior to the construction of Gotham, a man had come into contact with the chemical compound known as dionesium. It was alleged that this compound transformed him into an immortal being that haunted Gotham City during the time of great disasters.

Whatever his origin was, the first sightings of the Joker began to happen during the 2002. At this time, the Joker had not yet taken that specific name and covered his face with wrapped bandages. Initially the man who would be Joker started to hunt down members of the Red Hood Gang, whilst they were in a gang war with The Blockbuster Gang. While hunting the gang, the Joker began to take an interest in Willis Todd, the leader of the Red Hood Gang. Following Todd to the place that the remnants of the Red Hood Gang had gathered, the Joker massacred the remaining members from a vantage point while disguised as a police officer. With a smoking sniper rifle, the Joker ended the reign of the Red Hood Gang. With his notorious murders growing, the man quickly gained the title of the Joker and due to concrete proof of his existence, became a larger media sensation than the Batman. The Joker confirmed his existence when at the Gotham City Fairgrounds where he revealed himself with an event that would shake Gotham — The Haly’s Circus Massacre. Individuals like Gillian Loeb lost their life during this event much to the Joker's amusement. A random massacre that was unpredictable, the Joker laughed in Batman's face before disappearing without a trace, returning to the ghost he had been before.

Nearing the end of the year 2003, the Joker reappeared once again on All Hallow's Eve, intending to use the holiday to incite mass fear and hysteria as he ignited a bomb scare by leaking information to the Gotham Gazette. This leak sent the city into chaos as the Joker warned that thirty-seven bombs will go off anywhere between one hour to twenty-four hours. As a televised journalist began to announce the warning to the city, the Joker hijacked a local news channel to make his own announcement. Smiling at the people of Gotham, the Joker told all who was watching that he was hosting a “sort of party” at Robinson Park where he intended to burn a large quantity of cash to celebrate the “end of Gotham”. Even though the Batman pushed himself to find and disable each of the bombs, he Joker is ultimately gone by the time all of the bombs were found and disabled — his antics continuing to mock Batman and his repeated failure.

Killing about nineteen people per year, the Joker would slowly build up a small gang. While building up his gang, which would later evolve into the Circus of Strange. With the gang created, the Joker would eventually try to prove that anybody could go insane with just one "bad" day. Returning to Gotham over a year to the Gotham Fairgrounds, the site of the infamous massacre, the circus claims to be the friendly replacement and as such lures innocents to their show where The Joker’s chaos soon takes full advantage of. It begins as the showcases start to murder the guests and it comes to Batman & Robin to arrive to put a stop to it and revealing themselves to Gotham for the first time in broad daylight. It is here where Joker reveals himself alongside his mutated accomplice, Killer Croc. A savage and difficult fight ensues but in the end The Joker is seriously beaten and all of the psychopaths are arrested by the police as Batman & Robin disappear. This fight would prove for certainty that the existence of Batman was true to the general public, any doubts that could be left would be gone.

After his apprehension at the hands of Batman and Robin, the Joker was sentenced to Arkham Asylum. It was here where he would be treated by a beautiful young doctor named Harleen Quinzel. It did not take long for the Joker to exploit Harleen's unstable side, reavling the Harlequin within. The Joker would seduce Quinzel into insanity and would make her his assistant. Now operating from within his cell, the Joker is slowly plotting his big return to the spot light while waiting for the prefect moment to strike.

| ATTRIBUTES: |
POWERS:
UNIQUE PHYSIOLOGY: Due to his chemical submergence, Joker has gained beyond average advantages over normal humans as well as further exposure has tainted his physiology.

PAIN RESISTENCE: It is speculated that the Joker's exposure to chemicals may have heightened his resistance to pain. It is also implied that he is masochistic in nature, and thus enjoys any pain received, making it an ineffective way of dealing with him.

TAINTED LOVE BLOOD: Joker's blood is tainted. It has been said that "being an avid consumer of his products, Joker's immunity to poisons has been built up over years of dedicated abuse." When a mosquito sucks the Joker's blood, it "writhes and whines, choking on tainted blood".

JOKER VENOM IMMUNITY: The Joker is immune to his own venom as well as various similar toxins.

CHEATING DEATH: The Joker has cheated death numerous times, even in seemingly inescapable and lethal situations. He has been, among other things, caught in explosions, electrocuted, shot repeatedly, and dropped from great heights, but he always returns to once again wreak havoc.

ABILITIES:
INDOMITABLE WILL: The Joker's insanity, or his frame of mind, leaves him immune to the Spectre's judgement, though warranted, as Batman explained once that the Joker doesn't actually know what is right and wrong, a crucial understanding the Spectre needs to judge. In a way, one has to know one's deeds are evil or wrong for the Spectre to judge, and the Joker doesn't. Also, both Jim Corrigan and Hal Jordan Spectres have had major problems with navigating the Joker's mind, Corrigan even managed to get lost in it and Jordan literally was blasted out of his boots to the moon when he tried.

GENIUS LEVEL INTELLECT: The Joker is portrayed as highly intelligent and skilled in the fields of chemistry and engineering, as well an expert with explosives. From his first appearance onward, he has been consistently portrayed as capable of hijacking broadcasts - usually news programs - of both the television and radio varieties.

GIMMICK GADGETRY: The Joker commits crimes with countless "comedic" weapons (such as razor-sharp playing cards, acid-spewing flowers, cyanide pies, and lethally electric joy buzzers) and Joker venom.

ESCAPOLOGY: A master at escaping prisons, cages, restraints and even straitjackets, the Joker is a master at escaping from any constraints that are inflicted upon him.

TACTICAL ANALYSIS: A schemer and a criminal mastermind, the Joker is capable of pulling off high risk exploits and heists. However he's also capable of framing others for murder and laying out elaborate schemes to entangle his foes or simply to incite general anarchy.

DISGUISE: A master of disguise in both physical appearance and mannerisms, the Joker can blend into any crowd to infiltrate unsuspecting foes or even to simply manipulate others for his personal amusement.

HAND TO HAND COMBAT: The Joker has moderate skill in hand to hand combat. Over the years it has been shown that although Batman is stronger, the Joker is faster and more agile, and his fighting style is chaotic and difficult to predict. The Joker has been known to be able to hold his own in hand-to-hand combat against Batman, however every time he is subdued by Batman, it is through physical force. However, the Joker has proven to be very skilled in the area of martial arts as well, this being proven when beating the Batman once in a fight without "cheating". However, this skill in fighting can also be questioned, due to different artists having different reincarnations of the Joker. In some cases, he is so weak, that Batman can take him down with a single punch, whilst in other cases, he has proven to be more than a match for the Dark Knight.

INTIMIDATION: Joker is adept at torturing his victims endlessly, including shooting victims at point blank, torturing people to death and beating others into submission.

| CHARACTER GOALS: |
Taking inspiration from 'THE DARK KNIGHT', 'BATMAN: DEATH OF THE FAMILY', 'THE KILLING JOKE', 'JOKER', 'UNDER THE RED HOOD' AND 'THE MAN WHO LAUGHS', I am planning a Joker who commands a presence, a master showman who is also a psychotic criminal mastermind. This Joker has no problem hiring a gang or having others be his muscle, but also won't hesitate to drop one of his own for pure amusement. The Joker is unpredictable, changing in personality from day to day. One day Joker could scheme and plot, the next day he could walk into the middle of a crowd and start indiscriminately killing all those around him. In terms of goals, I hope to have Joker tangle not only with Batman but other major heroes. That said he'll always have a special spot for Batman and his family. Furthermore, my Joker would be happy to attack other villains, aligning with them only if their needs suit his own. My first major arc involves Joker first attempting to escape Arkham before instead asserting himself as the king in the castle, taking control of the asylum.

Peter Richard Parker aka The Amazing Spider-Man
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man
Spidey
Wall-crawler
Web-head
Web-slinger
Arachnid

| ORIGIN & BACKSTORY |
Peter Richard Parker was born in Queens to CIA agents Richard and Mary Parker. While Peter was still an infant, his parents were assigned to infiltrate the Algerian based spy ring controlled by the terrorist sect known as KOBRA. The moment that KOBRA learned that Richard and Mary were double agents, they were killed by one of their agents. This agent was a man known only as the Finisher, who killed the Parkers in an airplane crash overseas and then framed them for treason. Peter went to live with his uncle and aunt, Ben and May Parker, in Forest Hills, New York. With Richard and Mary's deaths, they became Peter’s surrogate parents and raised him as if he were their own son.

Over the next 9 years, Parker grew to be extremely bright in science and became a high honors student at Midtown High School. Parker's shyness and scholastic interest often made him a social outcast and a target for bullies, primarily football star Flash Thompson.

While attending a public exhibition demonstrating the safe handling of nuclear laboratory waste materials, sponsored by the Osborne Corporation or simply OsCorp, the now-15-year-old Peter Parker was bitten on the hand by a spider that had been irradiated by a particle accelerator used in the demonstration. Making his way home afterwards, Peter was almost hit by a car; when Peter jumped out of the way, Peter discovered he had somehow gained incredible strength, agility, and the ability to cling to walls, spider-like traits that he immediately associated with the spider bite.

Believing with his new-found abilities, Peter could finally land a date with his childhood crush, Gwen Stacy, he quickly realized there was yet another obstacle to overcome. Growing up with his Aunt and Uncle, Peter had always lived modestly and as such he was missing was the money to take the girl out on a date. Encountering an ad offering a cash prize for staying in the ring for three minutes with professional wrestler Joseph "Crusher" Hogan, Peter decided this would be a good way to test his powers. Wearing a mask to avoid potential embarrassment in case he lost the match or was identified by his classmates, Peter easily defeated his opponent. TV producer Maxwell Shiffman observed his performance and convinced him to go on television with his 'act.' Designing a full costume, Peter created a ring alias, calling himself Spider-Man. Going on to win each match he was entered into, 'Spider-Man' became an immediate sensation.

Following his first TV appearance, the wrestling company was robbed, an incident that Peter could have stopped. However after being ripped off by Shiffman, Peter instead allowed the thief to escape, claiming that it was not his responsibility to perform security. Peter forgot the incident as his fame rose, but days later he returned home at night to find his Uncle Ben had been murdered. Learning the police had the burglar responsible holed up in a warehouse, Peter changed into his Spider-Man and easily captured the murderer only to discover he was the same thief who Peter had allowed to escape earlier. Filled with remorse, the last words that Uncle Ben had spoken to Peter hung over him. After a disagreement with his Uncle, Ben had reminded Peter that 'With great power comes great responsibility'. Realizing he had been squandering his new abilities on fame, Peter resolved to honor his Uncle's memory, quitting the wrestling arena. With word of the Hydra prison break, Peter donned the Spider-Man costume again but this time instead of fighting for money, he chose to fight for those weaker than himself.

| ATTRIBUTES |
Spider Physiology: Spider-Man possesses the proportionate powers of a spider, granted to him from an irradiated Common House Spider (Achaearanea tepidariorum) which bit Peter Parker that was apparently already mutated from prior exposure to certain frequencies of radiation and received a final, lethal dose during Parker's attendance of the exhibition. The radioactive, complex mutagenic enzymes in the spider's blood that were transferred at the time of the bite triggered numerous body-wide mutagenic changes within Parker, granting him superhuman strength, speed, toughened flesh, and numerous arachnid-like abilities.

His powers include:

Wall-Crawling: Spider-Man's exposure to the mutated spider venom induced a mutagenic, cerebellum-wide alteration of his engrams resulting in the ability to mentally control the flux of inter-atomic attraction (electrostatic force) between molecular boundary layers. This overcomes the outer electron shell's normal behavior of mutual repulsion with other outer electron shells and permits the tremendous potential for electron attraction to prevail. The mentally controlled sub-atomic particle responsible for this has yet to be identified. This ability to affect the attraction between surfaces is so far limited to Spider-Man's body (especially concentrated in his hands and feet) and another object, with an upper limit of several tons per finger. Spider-Man is even able to prevent his opponents from taking his mask off by making it stick to his face.

Superhuman Strength: Spider-Man possesses superhuman strength enabling him to press lift many tons. Spider-Man's physical strength is sufficient enough to enable him to lift and even throw objects as heavy as a big as a large car. He must also pull his punches and kicks unless fighting someone of similar or greater physical durability. Otherwise, his blows would prove fatal to a normal human being. He has demonstrated that he is strong enough to knock out people with normal durability with as little as a tap to the head. Spider-Man's physical strength also extends into his legs, enabling him to be able to jump to a height of several stories in a single bound. Spider-Man demonstrated this when he leaped over thirty feet vertically into the air when he first leaped out of the way of an oncoming car; it should also be noted that when he first discovered his powers as a teenager.

Superhuman Speed: Spider-Man is capable of running and moving at speeds that are far beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete. Spider-Man has showed to be fast enough to catch up to an accelerating car while on foot, but prefers to travel by webs. It should be noted, this car was limited due to the urban environment of New York, therefore this was a speed of roughly thirty miles per hour.

Superhuman Stamina: Spider-Man's advanced musculature produces less fatigue toxins during physical activity than an ordinary human. This allows him to exert himself physically for much longer periods of time before fatigue begins to impair him. At his peak, Spider-Man can physically exert himself at his peak capacity for several hours before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to impair him. Several accounts depict Spider-Man as able to hold his breath for eight minutes or more.

Superhuman Durability: Spider-Man's body is physically tougher and more resistant to some types of injury than the body of a normal human. His body is more resistant to impact forces than anything else. He can withstand great impacts, such as falling from a height of several stories or being struck by an opponent with super strength, that would severely injure or kill a normal human with little to no discomfort. Spider-Man's body is durable to the point where tensing his super-strong muscles while being punched in the torso by a trained heavyweight boxer caused the attacker's wrists to break; also, Spider-Man has stated that he must roll with punches thrown by people without similar strength or durability to avoid breaking their wrists.

Superhuman Agility: Spider-Man's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are all enhanced to levels that are far beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete. Spider-Man is extraordinarily limber and his tendons and connective tissues are twice as elastic as the average human being's, despite their enhanced strength. He has the combined agility and acrobatic prowess of the most accomplished circus aerialists and acrobats. He can also perform any complicated sequence of gymnastic stunts such as flips, rolls, and springs. He can easily match or top any Olympic record at gymnastics apparatus such as flying rings, climbing ropes, horizontal bars, trampolines.

Superhuman Equilibrium: Spider-Man possesses the ability to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium in any position imaginable. He seems able to adjust his position by instinct, which enables him to balance himself on virtually any object, no matter how small or narrow.

Superhuman Reflexes: Spider-Man's reflexes are similarly enhanced and are currently about 40 times greater than those of an ordinary human. In combination with his spider-sense, the speed of his reflexes allows him to dodge almost any attack, or even gunfire, if he is far enough away. Spider-Man has even been shown in some cases, to be able to dodge gunfire using just his reflexes without his Spider-Sense.

Regenerative Healing Factor: Spider-Man has a limited healing factor. While not on the same level as some mutants, it is sufficiently powerful enough to recover from severe injuries, from broken bones and large amounts of tissue damage in a matter of days.

Contaminant Immunity: Due to his accelerated metabolism, Spider-Man has a higher tolerance for drugs and diseases than normal humans, and he can recover from the effects of larger doses rapidly. During an encounter with the Swarm, Spider-Man was incapacitated by thousands of bee stings, but recovered in less than 24 hours. His resistance and recovery time to other toxins and diseases varies, but is typically significantly higher than normal. Spider-Man was able to recover completely from acid being spat into his eyes by the new Vulture although the extent of the damage may have been restricted due to his superhuman durability. However, Spider-Man has the normal human tolerance for alcoholic beverages.

Spider-Sense: Spider-Man possesses an extrasensory "danger" or "spider" sense which warns him of potential immediate danger by the manifestation of a tingling sensation in the back of his skull, and links with his superhuman kinesthetics, enabling him to evade most any injuries, unless he cognitively overrides his automatic reflexes. It appears to be a simultaneous clairvoyant response to a wide variety of phenomena (everything from falling safes to speeding bullets to thrown punches), which has given several hundredths of a second warning, which is sufficient time for his reflexes to allow him to avoid injury. The sense also can create a general response on the order of several minutes: he cannot discern the nature of the threat by the sensation. He can, however, discern the severity of the danger by the strength of his response to it. Spider-Man's spider-sense is directional and can guide him to or away from hidden weapons and enemies. Sudden and extreme threats can cause his spider-sense to react with painful intensity. Spider-Man can also sense and dodge attacks directed randomly or by an artificial intelligence. Using his spider-sense to time his enhanced reflexes, Spider-Man can casually dodge attacks up to and including automatic-weapons fire, provided there is sufficient distance. His spider-sense is sufficiently well-linked to his reflexes to the point that a threat can trigger them even when Spider-Man is asleep or stunned. His spider-sense has helped him preserve his secret identity since it alerts him to observers or cameras when changing into or out of his costume. The spider-sense does react to those who Peter does not consider to be a threat, such as Aunt May. Spider-Man can choose to ignore his spider-sense, and distraction or fatigue diminish its effectiveness. Spider-Man's fighting style incorporates the advantage that his "spider-sense" provides him. His body begins to produce more adrenaline after the sense is triggered, an extension of the 'fight or flight syndrome.' Even when he does not have the use of his eyes, Spider-Man can still use his Spider Sense in a similar fashion to a Radar Sense to help him see by sensing the direction the danger is coming from by listening on the loudest noise around him.

Radio Frequency Detection: Peter's spider-sense also enables him to track certain radio frequencies, which could be used to his advantage through additional hardware.

Taking major hints from the 'ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN' comics and 'AMAZING SPIDER-MAN' movies, my Spider-Man will be more updated than some of the other takes. Further influences include both 'SPIDER-MAN THE ANIMATED SERIES' and the more recent 'SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN'. I'd like to demonstrate the difference between the nerdy, awkward and shy Peter compared to the boisterous and outgoing nature of Spider-Man. This take on Peter Parker will be more of a gadgeteering genius than the one who has been presented in common media. Ideally, Spider-Man will be able to form friendships and bonds with other young heroes in this universe such as Robin or the Titans, the X-Men and the Defenders. To begin with however, Spider-Man will be just starting out, gaining a rogue gallery and developing both his costume and gear.

| NAME: |
Richard John 'Dick' Grayson

| ALIAS: |
Nightwing

Formerly
Robin
The Boy Wonder

| ORIGIN: |
Born on the first day of spring on one of Gotham's rare sunny days, Richard John Grayson was handed into the hands of his loving parents who looked down on their son overwhelmed with pride. Upon first looking at her newborn baby boy, Mary called the boy her 'Little Robin', relating to his birth on the Spring Solstice. This term of endearment would imprint on the young Grayson for his entire life.

Like his father, Richard comes from a line of Romani descent. The Graysons were the ancestors of a roaming gypsy family who had been part of the circus for longer than any written record could tell. However unbeknownst to them, the Graysons were also the descendant of one of Gotham's most deadly legends, a man by the name of William Cobb. Cobb lived most of his life as a Talon, a highly feared enforcer for a group that has been all but long forgotten save for the haunting rhymes told to children who disobey their parents. As such the history of William Cobb fell into obscurity, lost in a history of circus performers and Romanies.

As his parents had, Richard or as he preferred to go by, Dick lived his whole life travelling from city to city in Haly's Circus. Trained by his parents, Mary and John Grayson, Dick was taught to be an acrobat and began performing at an early age, wowing crowds with his natural prowess on the trapeze. Together with his parents wo were both world renowned acrobats, Dick would begin his introduction to performing at a young age and essentially from birth was trained to be a performer in the circus. His mother's nickname for him only became further enforced as Dick learned to perform on the trapeze, as Mary would constantly comment how he reminded her of a Robin while flying through the air in his red leotard. Together they were collectively known as the 'Flying Graysons' and were recognized as being one of the biggest shows in the circus business. In fact the circus' owner Jack Haley often remarked that the Grayson's were the biggest asset to the circus' business. Known for performing without a net, the 'Flying Graysons' true trade mark was their signature quadruple somersault, a move that only the three Graysons were known to be capable of performing. Growing up in the circus, Dick made several friends with the children of the other performers such as Jimmy, Zane and his childhood crush Raya Vestri.

Travelling the world with the circus, Dick became very cultured and outgoing though his education did suffer as he was only taught what those around him knew. None the less, his quick mind grasped onto most concepts quickly and Dick was recognized among the other performers as being a very sharp kid. At the age of fifteen, Dick found himself in Gotham City as the circus rolled into town for its annual performance. Dick had only ever performed in Gotham a few times previously, but that said having heard of Gotham's reputation for crime he had always been understandably nervous about leaving the circus grounds to explore the city like he had in Paris, New York, and numerous other locations. However, staying at the circus gave the boy a unique opportunity as he was able to meet a young fan of his by the name of Timothy Drake. At the time, Timothy was only about nine years old, but none the less he remembered seeing Grayson's performances in previous years, wanting nothing more than to soar through the air like the older boy did. Having his picture taken with Tim and his parents, Dick wandered off through the circus to kill time before his family's show that evening.

Dick's world suddenly changed that fateful night. It was one of the biggest shows of the year as Haly's Circus had once again returned to Gotham City to help ring in the New Year. But Gotham wasn't the same place it was twelve years ago, not that it was some shiny metropolis then either, yet the city had managed to become worse. Stumbling across an argument between the circus' owner Mr. Haly and a well-known and feared crime lord by the name of "Boss" Tony Zucco. Dick hide in the shadows as he heard Zucco threaten Mr. Haly unless the circus's owner paid protection money. Being an honest and moral man, Haly refused not knowing the horrors he had released. That night Dick watched in horror as his parents' high wire snapped, sending his parents hurtling to their deaths, all while many of Gotham's elite watched on. A burden of guilt came over Dick as he stood there, the realization that he could have warned his parents washing over him, downing him in anguish as he collapsed into bitter sobs.

Shortly after the tragedy of his parent's death, Dick was placed in an uncaring juvenile services system, reportedly on the grounds that social services was full. While in the juvenile systems, Dick found himself dragged into numerous brawls where he was beaten up by a number of the inmates. He was eventually passed onto a Catholic orphanage where he stayed for a couple miserable months. Though life seemed to have taken a permanent turn for the worse for the young boy, seemingly out of nowhere, infamous billionaire Bruce Wayne rescued Dick by adopting him.

Dick insisted on only being adopted as his ward, because he did not want to replace his deceased father with the billionaire who he only knew from the tabloids. In fact, Dick originally believed that Bruce only adopted him for the good press and this was further supported by the amount of time that Dick found himself spending alone in the near empty mansion. Living with the billionaire at first felt like Dick had won the lottery, but after several weeks of growing loneliness, Dick's bitterness began to resurface. Growing frustrated by the lack of attention from his new guardian and the mystery still surrounding his parents' death, Dick snuck out of Wayne Manor one evening to solve the crime on his own - only to stumble upon Gotham's mysterious Batman, who was also investigating the murder. Feeling it would be cathartic for Dick to apprehend Zucco, the Batman allowed Dick to work with him, acknowledging their similar parallels in life. The pair succeed in tracking down Zucco. Despite this, Batman was unable to apprehend Zucco as the man died of a heart attack before his arrest.

While working with Batman, Dick began to get a familiar sense about the mysterious man. An expert in reading body language, a skill inherited from the circus and playing up to crowds it didn't take Dick long to deduce that Bruce Wayne and Batman were actually the same individual. Exploring the mansion for further clues, Dick eventually found himself stumbling upon the Batcave where Batman himself was awaiting his arrival. Bruce offered to train Dick, turn Dick into a crime fighter in his own right and pass along each and every skill he himself possessed. Wanting to honor his parents, Dick wholeheartedly agreed and was put through a rigorous training regime. Exercise after grueling exercise nearly brought Dick to his knees, but the young acrobat managed to excel through all combat and physical based training. Where Dick struggled however was the more academic departments although he eventually overcame these obstacles once he was able to put his own perspective on them.

Despite training with Bruce for a year, Dick had still not been allowed in the field since the night he first snuck out. However it seemed luck was not on the side of the Batman as he found himself caught in the trap set by one of his many rogues. Stubborn still, Bruce refused Alfred's suggestion to send Dick into the field, but fearing for Bruce's safety and having complete confidence in Dick, Alfred made the decision to disobey Bruce and presented Dick with a costume. Taking the name Robin in honor of his mother, Dick managed to rescue Batman.

With the rescue of Batman, Dick was finally deemed worthy to hit the streets. However Bruce had one final test for Dick to pass - "the Gauntlet". Dick had to elude the Dark Knight on the streets of Gotham for one night - from sundown to sunrise - without any outside help. Dick succeeded, simultaneously bringing Gotham gangster Joe Minette to justice. Dick took to the streets as Batman's full-fledged partner in crime-fighting: Robin, the Boy Wonder. From that point on the two would patrol Gotham together and the name Robin became just as well known as Batman. Just as the dynamic duo were becoming well known, rumors of a female Batman began to circulate Gotham however neither paid them much attention at the time despite the rumors becoming more persistent as time went on.

It would be a year later that the pair confronted the Batgirl. While Bruce reluctantly agreed to train her, Dick became immediately smitten with the redhead and much to Bruce's chargin would go out of his way to both flirt and attempt to impress the older girl. However Batgirl took no interest in the much younger Robin and repeatedly pushed him away. Failing with Batgirl eventually lead Dick to dating other girls. In particular at the age of 19, Dick found himself attracted to one of the daughters of Gotham's socialites. While Dick Grayson enticed her, Dick soon found out that the young Bette Kane was heavily infatuated with Gotham's Boy Wonder. Meeting her as Robin, Dick used his secret identity to score with Bette only for Batman to confront him. Yelling at Dick, words were exchanged between the two with Bruce accusing Dick of manipulating the girl, being irresponsible and compromising their identities while Dick reminded Bruce that he does the same thing with Catwoman on a regular basis. In addition to this confrontation, their idealisms began to differ as Dick looked towards moving forward while Bruce was still firmly tethered in the past.

The widening gyre between the two only became worse as Dick was shot and injured during a confrontation with the Scarecrow. Subjected to a near lethal dose of fear gas, Batman put Dick on 'Cave Arrest' out of fear of seeing him further injured. However left alone in the cave, Dick discovered that Bruce had been training Jason Todd in secret which he assumed was meant to replace him. Bruce tried to explain that they were at war and Jason was a soldier for their crusade, some much needed back but Dick refused to hear any of it. The conversation got heated as Dick began to run down Bruce's crusade calling him a 'Scared Boy hiding up a blanket' and saying that 'Bruce Wayne could do ten times more for Gotham than Batman ever could.' After a final sucker punch and a dramatic exit, Dick Grayson left the Batcave.

Without Bruce, Dick was out on his own but at the age of 19 he was more than capable for looking at himself. Alfred had been kind enough over the years to teach Dick the domestic side of life and revealed to the young man that Bruce had been given control of a trust fund that Dick's parents had created for him. This trust fund had been left in the hands of financial expert Lucius Fox who had grown it into a modest fortune for Dick. Thanking Alfred for everything, Dick embarked on a soul searching trip.

Spending nearly a year backpacking through Europe, Dick took it upon himself to return to his Romani roots and explore the world as they had, living as a nomad and travelling from town to town. The experience was wholly enriching and exactly what Dick had needed on his trip of self discovery. Returning to North America, Dick avoided Gotham and instead went to New York. It was here that Dick met and enjoyed a whirlwind romance with fashionista Cheyenne Fremont. Though their romance came to an end, the two parted on friendly terms and Dick continued his journey eventually coming into contact with a Tamaranian named Koriand'r. Kori, as she preferred to be called opened Dick's eyes to the further wonders of the world as he was able to live vicariously through her optimistic and naive point of view about Earth. The two became rather passionately involved and were almost married at a Vegas Chapel until the ceremony was disturbed by the interruption of a localized zombie apocalypse. However despite intending to continue their romance, Dick returned to Gotham when Alfred contacted him regarding Barbara.

In his quest to break the Batman, The Joker had crippled Barbara Gordon but it was Dick who was out for revenge. A burning fire inside his chest once again united Batman and the former Robin on the same path. There wasn't a waking hour that Dick didn't stop by the hospital sitting at Barbara's beside. It was during this time the two became quite close, Barbara beginning to see Dick as more than the annoying kid who had a crush on her. As Barbara regained her independence, Dick continued on his trip, reunited with Kori as the two traveled to Metropolis where he came across Superman who much to Dick's surprise recognized the former Boy Wonder.

Showing Dick and Kori the city, Kal and Dick eventually sat down for a meal where the two heroes had a heart to heart, sharing their frustrations about Bruce and ended the night with Superman sharing a story he heard about two Kandorian heroes not unlike Batman and Robin, Flamebird and Nightwing. The story stuck with Dick and he took up the mantle of Nightwing stopping crime on the road alongside Kori before breaking up their partnership and returning to Gotham upon hearing that Tony Zucco had managed to evade death. In the weeks that followed, Dick was able to track Zucco and his activities to Blüdhaven, a city possibly worse than Gotham. Finding himself in a familiar pit of criminal activity, Nightwing realized that Blüdhaven could use a protector. Setting up shop, Dick had finally found a purpose. He was out of the shadow of the Bat, he was his own hero. Using a web of allies, Dick has worked closely along side the Oracle as well as assisted in the raining of a new hero, Timothy Drake.

MASTER ACROBAT:

MASTER OF DISGUISE:
Taught by the Batman in the art of disguise, like his mentor, Grayson had mastered the art of disguise by the time he was 21. Grayson has used many aliases to infiltrate the underworld or just to go undercover in public situations.

EXPERT DRIVER:
Grayson is proficient at driving many vehicles like cars, motor bikes, trucks and he is also skillful at driving jets, helicopters and auto boats and small ships.

EXPERT ESCAPOLOGIST:
Due to his training with Batman, he possess extreme skill in escapology.

Grayson has even been able to escape a maze faster than Wally West due to his training under Batman.

EXPERT MARKSMAN:
Grayson is skilled enough to use modified Shuriken (Wing-Dings) to hit thugs at a great distance with his eyes closed, despite even giving him a head-start and disarm others with his wingdings. He is also capable of using firearms, as he was trained by Batman to do in order to gain a better understanding to disarm those who use them.

SKILLED DETECTIVE:
Grayson is a world class detective, though not quite as proficient as Batman. In light of that, Grayson has been said to be third to Batman who is widely regarded as the 'World's Greatest Detective'. Grayson was able to solve a riddle by the Riddler before Batman himself even figured it out and this was before Grayson had become Robin. Furthermore, he has been known to solve mysteries and cases in a speed that even impresses his mentor. Barbara Gordon even commented that he was able to solve 4 cases in "America's Most Wanted" in a single morning and solved a homicidal case that went unsolved for 14 years.

SKILLED HACKER:
He is skilled enough to hack into the Batcomputer emergency override codes during a time when he and Bruce had a falling out following his evolution from Robin to Nightwing. During his travels with Kori, Grayson also hacked a Alien Terminal with the use of the Tameranian Language he had learned from former teammate and romantic interest Starfire.

Gryason has been trained in hunting techniques by Batman who learned by the way of the African Bushmen (the Ghost Tribes of the Ten-eyed Brotherhood, among others). As such Grayson's skills are quite considerable both in natural and urban environments.

Grayson possesses the peak athletic strength and endurance of a man who regularly engages in intensive physical exercise. As such Grayson possesses the normal human strength of a man that has intense physical workouts at the height and weight of 5"10 175 lb. While he relies more on speed and agility than strength, Grayson has shown incredible strength throughout the years. On a peak day, Grayson can press lift 350lbs, basically meaning he can lift twice his own weight above his head. Grayson's human conditioning also grants him something in the way of durability, though more specifically it's through the fact he's used to enduring pain and can ignore and work through it. This can give the impression to lesser minds that he's superhuman.

STEALTH:
Grayson is capable of breaching high security facilities without being detected. He can even sneak up on Batman himself on occasion. He is also skilled enough to even sneak away and keep hidden from Speedsters such as Jesse Quick or others with abilities that allow them to survey environments precisely and quickly.

WEAPON PROFICIENCY:
Due to his training with Batman, Grayson has been taught and displayed skills and proficiency in various weaponry ranging from shurikens (which the Batfamily uses in the forms of Wing-Dings and Batarangs), to eskrima sticks and staves to swords and even bows to various modern firearms.

CHARISMATIC:
Probably one of the most charistmatic people you will ever meet, despite living with Batman for five years, Dick still retains his bright and sunny disposition and as such is very easy to get along with. The former circus boy is very much still a charming performer and is a huge flirt, something that is generally returned from members of the opposite sex and even those who aren't. Grayson makes the clothes fall off faster than Tequila.

BEST BUTT IN THE DCU:
Dick Grayson has the finest ass in the entire world. It's a fact, deal with it.

| STOMPING GROUNDS: |
Blüdhaven
“When you die in Blüdhaven -- going to Hell is considered a promotion.”


Once nicknamed, "Asbestos Town, USA," Blüdhaven is a former whaling town, which was officially incorporated as a "Commonwealth" in 1912. The town had a generally poor socio-economic populace, owing in part to failed efforts to transform itself into a manufacturing and shipping center. This however rapidly gave way to highly industrial sectors which then fell into urban decay as businesses collapsed or moved out of the area during the Depression. It's infamous for its somewhat rank odor and high crime rate. Approximately 33 minutes' drive from Gotham City, Nightwing moved here initially to solve a string of murders related to a thoroughly corrupt police force, only to remain there to carve out his own reputation away from his family and loved ones.
The city lived through a corrupt balance of underhand dealings and unlawful policies, which was helped kept in check by the local police force.


| PEOPLE OF NOTE: |
ALLIES:
Bruce Wayne/Batman: Despite the riff between Bruce and Dick, the latter will always look up to the former in both gratitude and awe. Bruce Wayne took Dick in when he was 15 after watching his parents die before him. After Dick discovered Bruce's dual life, the Dark Knight trained Dick as his apprentice. The two still operate as allies and should anyone threaten the other, they have each other's backs.

Barbara 'Babs' Gordon/Oracle: Older and definitely smarter, Babs always seemed unobtainable to Dick. Perhaps that's why he fell for her almost immediately after meeting her. It might also have something to do with her red hair, a definite weak point for the Boy Wonder. Either way, Barbara Gordon has always been a friend to Dick Grayson even when they spent the first few years bickering back and forth. What started as a one sided crush eventually blossomed into a very close friendship especially after Joker's attack on Babs. Nowdays, Babs is one of Dick's closest allies and the two share a mutual attraction that neither one is exactly sure how to act on.

Jason Todd/Robin: He's a dick.

Timothy 'Tim' Drake/Red Robin: The newest addition to the extended Batfamily though notably the only one not to train under Bruce. Instead Tim works for the Oracle which often brings him in contact with Nightwing. Having assisted in Tim's training, Dick wishes that Tim had took his place instead of Jason.

Alfred Pennyworth: Somewhere between Barbara and Bruce lies Alfred's close relationship to Dick. While Alfred may have been a surrogate father to Bruce, he was a surrogate grandfather to Dick. The two have a very friendly relationship with Alfred having something of a soft spot for Dick and is more than willing to go out of his way to assist the 'young Master' if need be. Likewise Dick is just as protective of 'Alfie' as he is of Barbara. That doesn't however stop him from making fun of Alfred's cooking.

Raya Vestri: A childhood crush and acrobat like Dick, Raya Vestri was the first (but hardly the last) redhead that Dick Grayson ever loved. While they've met for coffee and drinks a few times over the year, it has yet to be fully revealed what kind of role she'll play in the young hero's life.

Cheyenne Freemont: A New York fashionista and metahuman who enjoyed a brief whirlwind romance with Dick Grayson. Dick has recently heard she relocated to Gotham to open a new line of clothing.

Koriand'r: An alien from the planet Tamaran who Dick ran into in his travels. They have an on and off again romantic relationship however Kori is very possessive over Dick and will help him without a second thought. The two were almost married in Vegas however the 'ceremony' was disturbed by a zombie apocalypse.

Joanna 'Joey' Greene: A software engineer who Dick saved from a mugger. The two eventually ended up becoming roommates after Joey ran into Grayson again while he was apartment hunting. While she's suspicious of his late night activities, Dick believes that Joey is unaware he is the Nightwing.

Michael 'Mike' Pearson: An aspiring photojournalist who met Dick when the latter moved in with Mike and his roommate Joey. Mike is untrusting of vigilantes believing they create more threats for the general populace than they solve and is hoping one day to write an exposé which will see the downfall of the Justice League.

Amy Rohrbach: A police detective with the Blüdhaven Force and one of the few honest officiers in the city. She has an uneasy alliance with Nightwing being wary of vigilantes.


ROGUES:
Tony 'Boss' Zucco: A Gotham crime lord, Zucco tried to extort money from Jack Haly who refused leading to Zucco killing the Graysons. After being tracked down by the Batman and Dick Grayson, Zucco was able to fake not only a heart attack but his own death. Later reappearing in Gotham, Zucco attracted the attention of Dick Grayson who pursued him into Blüdhaven/

William Cobb: Otherwise known as Talon, William Cobb is Dick's great-grandfather and an assassin for the Court of Owls. So far he remains unknown to his great-grandson, but Cobb has but one goal in mind and that is to recruit his last living descendant to Court of Owls. Now by order of the Court, he hunts his great grandson in order to kill the boy and subject him to programming at the Court's hand in order to turn Dick into a proper Talon.

The Court of Owls: A mysterious organization that once ruled all of Gotham and Blüdhaven. Thought to only exist in fairy tales and rhymes used to scare children into obedience. They have an army of assassins known as Talons at their disposal who are essentially immortal.

Blockbuster: Roland Desmond is a criminal mastermind who manipulated his brother into performing numerous criminal actions while under the influence of a strength-enhancing steroid. After his brother's death, he too took this steroid and found his intelligence much reduced - until signing his soul away to the demon Neron. Using his combination of brute strength and great intelligence he took over most of the criminal operations in the city of Blüdhaven.

Lady Vic: Lady Elaine Marsh-Morton is a genuine English Aristocrat, descended from a long line of British soldiers and mercenaries. She is an expert martial artist, proficient with many different kinds of firearms and melee weapons, and works as an assassin-for-hire. The money she earns from her secret career helps prevent foreclosure on her impoverished family estate. Lady Vic sets herself apart from most other supervillains not just by her considerable skill, but by her ruthlessness and determination. She has been shown to be more than willing to kill small children for her paycheck, and once actually jumped out of a plane without a parachute to chase an escaping hostage. She most often appears in Blüdhaven and is frequently employed by gang boss Blockbuster.

Brutale: Brutale was a top-level interrogator/torturer for the secret police in the Latin American country of Hasaragua, until a revolution forced him to flee. In his native Hasaragua, Guillermo Barrera served the secret police of his government as a savage interrogator, extracting confessions efficiency with blades and tools used for surgery. When the Marxist regime of Hasaragua fell, Barrera escaped the country to America, fleeing execution for the atrocities he committed.

Adopting the name Brutale, Barrera put his "Surgical Skills" to use as a hired assassin. He eventually began working for Blockbuster II in Blüdhaven while donning a costume that resembles a gargoyle.

Shrike: Boone harbors a long standing enmity for Dick Grayson dating back to their youth, when the two shared a friendship that was in many ways doomed from its inception. While Grayson served as the Batman's partner Robin, the boy who would became known as the predatory Shrike traveled alone throughout the Pacific Rim, gleaning an array of martial arts skills both from a variety of unsavory teachers, including several former operatives of insidious League of Assassins. In the back streets of Hong Kong, Shrike met the "Master" who would forge the already hardened youth into a disciplined killing machine, undertaking contract eliminations throughout Asia and the former Soviet bloc-and never once failing to make a kill.

Saiko: As a young boy, Raymond McCreary was a circus performer at Haly's Circus alongside Dick Grayson, Raya Vestri, and Zane. Raymond, Dick, and Raya were really good friends, but Raymond and Raya had a secret disapproval of Dick because of his stardom in the circus. For a long time, Dick was the star of the show and his friends merely assistants.

Upon the death of Dick's parents and his subsequent adoption by billionaire Bruce Wayne, the Court of Owls, having lost Dick as their candidate for a new Talon, had Mr. Haly fake Raymond's drowning in a car accident, taking him instead. Torturing him to his breaking point, he was then trained as an assassin for the Court, only to be rejected and left in the woods to die, birds attacking the skin around his eyes, giving him his distinctive scars.

Stallion: Randy Hanrahan kissed good-bye both a promising football career with the Dallas Cowboys and a much-desired Super Bowl ring when he suffered severe anterior-cruciate ligament injuries to both knees during pre-season scrimmage. "Stallion," as Hanrahan was nicknamed, subsequently moved north and tackled work as a bouncer in Penguin's Iceberg Lounge, where the notorious Penguin promoted him to "reposessor of defaulted loans." Stallion eventually became a free agent, plying his bone-crunching strength as a successful stone-cold killer, most recently in the employ of Blockbuster. Unfortunately, Stallion hasn't had much luck in completing his benefactor's contract in Nightwing, despite tag-teaming with both Lady Vic and the knife-wielding Brutale to bring down the young vigilante. Stallion has no formal martial arts training, but instead relies on his steroid-enhanced physique to muscle opponents into submission or death.

Marionette: Malina ‘Mali’ Lewis, a former Alice of Jervis Tech aka The Mad Hatter, Mali was left with a shattered mind which gave her symptoms similar to a split personality disorder. This leads to Mali often holding ‘Gollum-esque’ conversations with herself but also the unique side effect of making her something of a mimic. Most notably, Mali repeats phrases spoken to her but most extraordinarily Mali is able to mimic any skill she witnesses.

Amygdala: A man who endured terrible experiments on his amygdala making him unstable. When enraged or overly excited, Amygdala transforms from a meek human appearance into a hulking red beast complete with a child-like mind set meaning his fits are often comparable to tantrums.

The Prankster: Several years ago, a man named Harold Loomis became the electrical engineer as part of William and Wallace Cole's initiative to bring a train line through their old neighborhood. However, the deal went sour, and Harold Loomis was murdered by the Cole brothers on Halloween, left for his son Oswald to find dead on their front lawn after returning from trick-or-treating. William was eventually arrested for the crime but didn't rat out his brother, who went on to become mayor of Blüdhaven.

Little Oswald, swearing revenge on the men who killed his father, sent the mask he wore as part of his costume to William in prison, to remind the criminal that he and his brother's punishment wasn't over yet. In a twisted way to get justice for his father, Oswald, donning a mask and calling himself the Prankster, began his crusade against the corrupt officials of Blüdhaven that helped the Wallace Cole rise to power.

| SAMPLE POST: |
A stilted silence fell over the cave as Dick glared towards Bruce, an outstretched arm pointing towards the image of a younger boy on the screen.

"Who is he Bruce?" Dick yelled, anger practically seething from every ounce of his being. "Did I truly let you down so badly that you found a replacement? Were you just going to take me out in the Batmobile and dump me on the side of the road like some stray puppy who had finally grown into an ugly dog?"

The Dark and Stoic Knight remained completely unphased in the face of Dick's outburst as he carefully manufactured a inoculation against Crane's newest fear toxin.

"All I wanted was to feel some semblance of a normal life. Perhaps it was wrong of me to use Robin to get a date with Bette Kane, but how is that truly any different than you sleeping with Selina Kyle on half of the roof tops in Gotham!" Dick placed his hands on either side of his head in frustration. "They're your rules until you decide their note. Why is okay for you to have such a double standard. I'm not a fifteen year old boy who's happy to play dress up anymore Bruce. Between my studies, training and patrol, you're smothering me. All I'm looking for is some 'me' time. But no, instead you go and replace me!"

Dick began to pace back and forth as Alfred stood quietly to the side, his ever unflappable demeanor never changing nor reflecting his true emotions as the most loyal member of the Wayne estate played Switzerland.

"Or wait, is this because I was shot and gassed? Even criminals can be prepared Bruce, they knew we were coming. Like Alfred said, I'll make a full recovery. You worked alone for years, surely a weeks would have been fine while I healed. Instead you bring a petty criminal, he's a thief Bruce!"

"We are at war Dick. You're a soldier, Jason's a soldier." Bruce answered flatly as he poured the inoculation into a syringe before loading it into a small gun.

"I looked up to you as a father!" Dick roared. "You weren't my commander, you're weren't a general. You were my guardian, my protector and mentor." Suddenly Batman turned and injected the inoculation into Dick's arm. His face curling into an expression of sheer rage, Dick turned and let loose a sucker punch. From the corner, Alfred flinched as Bruce dropped the administration instrument, the syringe breaking open on the floor as Dick stood tall. His chest heavily heaving up and down.

"You're nothing but that same scared boy from the alley Bruce, hiding beneath your armor so you don't have to feel emotion. But what you fail to realize is that if you truly wanted to help Gotham, you would have hung up your cape years ago. Bruce Wayne can do ten times more for Gotham than what Batman can."

"Get out of my cave." Bruce growled as he finally turned to look at Dick. "And don't come back."

"I was already gone." Dick retorted from halfway up the stairs. Silence once again descended over the cave as the elevator departed leaving Alfred to hang his head as Bruce resumed his work.

Jerome 'Jerry' King

| ALIAS: |
Onomatopoeia

In Disguise
Baphomet

| INMATE NO.: |
711102

| APPEARANCE: |


Onomatopoeia's usual outfit consists of reinforced black gloves, knee high black steel toe motorcycle boots, kevlar pants, a shirt made with both kevlar and ceramic plates reinforcing it, and a long kevlar and nomex lined black trench coat. To cover his face, Onomatopoeia wears a full, black hood decorated by concentric white circles. This hood contains armored plating to protect Onomatopoeia from head attacks as well as a bloodpack in the forehead between two armor layers that when struck will explode allowing Onomatopoeia to play opossum and take his foe by surprise, a technique employed also by Batman and Deadshot.

Outside of costume, Jerome King is a rather plain and unassuming man with a close shave haircut and coarse five o'clock shadow. Often wearing a wrinkled pair of trousers and ruffled dress shirt, Jerome works as an insurance adjuster in a mild and unassuming white collar office.

Growing up in Star City, Jerome 'Jerry' King was a star student and athlete with a very promising potential. During his youth and even into his adult years, Jerome practiced numerous martial arts in order to keep in shape along with participated in track and field.

Marrying his high school Jane Patricks sweetheart after university, Jerome opened his own practice in speech therapy becoming a very successful and wealthy doctor. About a year after their marriage, Jane announced herself to be pregnant and eventually gave birth to a beautiful daughter the pair decided to name Charlotte. However, while Jerome seemed to lead a silver spoon life, his world was turned upside down the year of his daughter's thirteenth birthday.

Coming home from work one day, Jerome found his wife and daughter raped and murdered in their home, victims of the latest crime wave of the serial rapist Mad Dog Hawkins. Discovering their bodies displayed in their chairs at the kitchen table, their fingernails painted with their own blood, and their heads severed and placed on the others' body. Jerome's mind cracked as he slipped into a zombie-like state unable to cope with the trauma before him. Continuing to attend work, Jerome left the bodies as they were, coming home everyday to have dinner 'with' them. Eventually he suffered a total break down at work, the police discovered the scene at his house horrified by the decaying bodies. Blamed for the murders of his own family, Jerome was placed in psychiatric care eventually transferring to Arkham Asylum in Gotham when the care in Star City was found to be inadequate. For nearly six months, Jerome would only respond to the doctors by repeating the sounds around him, perfectly imitating the creeking of the walls and the dripping of leaky pipes against the cold stone. Eventually awakening from this state, Jerome began to train his body, performing gruelling exercises for hours on end. His honed his physical condition which was further increased by his latent metahuman genes. Coming to terms with the death of his wife and child, Jerome was released from Arkham with a clean bill of health. Deciding to remain in Gotham, Jerome found himself a small apartment took a part-time job as an insurance adjuster.

Despite being released, Jerome's mind was far from healed. Believing Star City's resident hero and vigilante, Green Arrow was to blame for the death of his wife and child, Jerome began to form a personal vendetta not only against the Arrow but against every non-powered hero. While Jerome had no problem with the likes of Superman and Flash who obviously had powers and were compelled to use them, Jerome believe the Arrow, the Batman and others like them were a blight unto society only further creating problems instead of actually stopping them. While he had been in Arkham, Jerome had become Onomatopoeia, learning to perfectly imitate the sounds around him. Further honing this personal, Jerome developed a costume and took to the streets, luring out non powered vigilantes and hunting them down. Each one he killed, he would take their mask and keep it as a trophy in his home. Eventually growing over confident, Onomatopoeia took on a secondary disguise as a non-powered vigilante and worked to gain the trust of Batman under the guise of Baphomet. Despite his plan nearly succeeding, Onomatopeia was discovered and after a long drawn out fight he was incarcerated in Belle Reeve.

| IDENTITY: |
Bartholomew Henry 'Barry' Allen
aka
The Fastest Man Alive
The Scarlet Speedster
The Crimson Comet
The Blur
The Streak
The Flash

| ORIGIN & BACKSTORY: |
1989-2000 | LEARN TO BREATHE:
"Being a hero isn't always about how fast you can run, it's about helping however you can, wherever you're needed most."
-Nora Allen

Born October 8th to loving parents Henry and Nora Allen, Bartholomew Allen was born two weeks late in the small midwestern town of Fallville, Iowa. The lateness of Barry's birth only foreshadowed his bad habit of always being late. Not long after his birth, Henry was offered an esteemed position at the Central City Hospital prompting the family to move from their farm into the city.

During Barry's childhood, the relationship between Nora and Henry wasn't going well. It was during this time that Barry found himself retreating from the world and immersing himself in numerous books both fictional and non-fictional. In this retreat, he took refuge in the pages of a comic-book called 'The Flash'. The Flash was a man named Jay Garrick, a scientist by day and a superhero by night.

Thanks to Jay Garrick's adventures, Barry loved science from an early age, specifically chemistry. He won first place in the Fallville County Fair Agricultural Competition, which would encourage him to continue his academic skills. Despite this, Barry's mother Nora was struggling to encourage him, her relationship with Henry wasn't going well since moving to Central City. Struggling to find substantial work, Nora ended up working double shifts at a local diner and had decided to try to get a divorce from Henry.

At the age of eleven, Barry had decided to participate in a spelling bee at the school. It was on this same day that Henry received the divorce papers on the day of the spelling bee, and because Nora had to work, he seethed and took Barry to school. When Nora returned from work, she was happy to see that her son had won the competition, but she was obligated to speak to Henry about their relationship, and so Barry was sent to bed early. Awoke in the middle of a bad thunderstorm, Barry rubbed his eye and made his way downstairs to get a glass of water. However upon entering the kitchen, Barry was shocked to witness his mother murdered as the room filled with lightning.

Suddenly knocked from the room, Barry found himself on the front yard before regaining his senses and running back inside. Returning to the kitchen, Barry found his father cradling Nora as he sobbed over her dead body as neighbour and police officer Joseph West entered the room. Escorting Barry outside of the room, Barry was left to sit outside on the porch until Joe returned. Barry's father had been placed under arrest, despite the overwhelming evidence, he continued to profess his innocence.

2001-2008 | MOVE:
"Well, he may not have his mother, but he's got two amazing fathers. Seemed like he needed both."
-Iris West

With the murder of his mother and his father imprisoned for the crime, Barry was taken in by Joseph West. Having been close friends with the Allens since they moved to Central City, and with no other family in the area the Wests didn't want to see Barry get taken away. Growing up in the West house hold took quite a bit of adjusting to for Barry especially since he was now living under the same roof as his child hold crush and eventual first love, Iris West.

Iris and Barry were fast friends from the time they met on the playground and quickly became best friends as children. Unbeknownst to Iris however, Barry had quickly developed a crush on Iris and as such, living with her as a sister was very awkward for the young boy.

Growing up under Joe, Barry originally would fight with his new foster parent due to Joe not letting Barry see his father, however Henry had asked Joe to not let his son see him. Not knowing this, Barry kept trying to run away to see his father at Iron Heights, and he was caught and stopped by Joe every time; at one point, Barry called him out for it, telling him that he wasn't his father and that he hated him. Eventually, Barry finally reached Iron Heights before Joe could stop him, and he finally came face to face with his father. Henry told him that he simply did not want Barry to see him in prison. Despite this, Barry begged for his father's release, insisting that the man in the lightning was who killed his mother, not Henry. Henry told him that he couldn't help him and asked that he be a good boy while Joe raised him. Henry was promptly taken away.

In school Barry was relentlessly bullied by another boy named Tony Woodward. Joe noticed this and had Barry spar with Iris who easily beat him. Joe then told Barry that if he ever got into a fight he couldn't win that it was okay to run the other way.

Growing closer with Joe, Barry began to take an interest in Joe's career as the former officer was promoted to detective. Having learned from Joe that the search for evidence in that case would inevitably lead to the truth, Barry became a forensic scientist. For years, he visited Henry in prison, promising to look over all of the evidence of his mother's murder case until he found a way to prove his father's innocence.

In high school, Barry had a reputation for being slow and easy-going. On his first date, he went to a carnival. His date had wanted to put a little motion in his life, and they went on the roller-coaster first thing. Because of this, he developed a fear of roller-coasters, a fear that he didn't get rid of until much later in his life. High school was a difficult time for Barry, as both he and Iris developed, they drifted apart. Upon graduation Barry accepted a full scholarship to Midwestern University in Keystone City.

2009-2011 | BE SOMEBODY:
"Barry is the kind of man that I would've hoped to become if my parents hadn't been murdered."
- Bruce Wayne, the Batman

Attending Midwestern University, Barry graduated in three years with a major in organic chemistry and a minor in criminology. During this time, he kept his own private investigation into his mother's murder, visiting his father every chance he had. While a senior, Barry helped the authorities apprehend a bank robber, and he was offered a job as a police scientist for the Central City Police Department Special Investigations Unit. Eager to use his skills and knowledge to help people, Barry accepted the offer.

After years of coming back, and failing to find any proof, Henry broke down and admitted that he had committed the crime. The shock of realizing that all of his efforts had been for nothing depressed Barry. On the night of a storm, Barry angrily tore his lab apart. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning crashed through his lab's window, and struck him in the chest, causing him to drop the chemical vials he was carrying, and douse himself.

After a long comatose period, Barry woke dazed and confused but none the less checked himself out of the hospital. Deciding to return home, Barry called for a taxi as he normally would. However, the taxi started to pull away without noticing him. Barry sprinted after it, only to run straight past it as if it had been standing still. He decided to sit down and recollect his thoughts at a diner. A passing waitress accidentally spilled the items of her tray onto Barry, who amazingly caught them all in mid-air and returns them to the tray. The next day, Barry saved Joe from a stray bullet. There was no question about it: the accident had somehow given Barry superhuman speed.

Inspired by his foster father Joe and the examples of other superheroes, Barry decided to take on a symbol for himself, and decided to use his powers to help humanity. Designing a special costume, Barry used a special cold cast polyester he developed in college, which could be molded into miniature outfits from liquid material, that, when submersed in a special liquid, became sensitive to hydrogen, expanding on contact with the hydrogen in the air. A charge from a battery-powered ring he wore on his finger caused the fabric to release the extra hydrogen and shrink into the ring. He later revised the process, making the fabric sensitive to nitrogen instead. He called himself the Flash, a tribute to his childhood idol. He briefly considered wearing a costume that would show his face, like Jay had, but decided that it would be best to wear a mask to conceal his true identity.

Barry's first meeting with his future Justice League team members happened while responding to a call from Superman. Running to Metropolis, Barry joined the fight against the alien known as BRAINIAC. With the outcome of the battle being in favour of the heroes, they decided to join forces and the Justice League was founded from that day forth.

2012-2014 | E FOR EXTINCTION:
"You know what they say, live fast, die young."
-Captain Cold

As the Guardian of Central City, Barry began to attract the attention of the numerous villains who would plague the city. During his first year as the Flash, Barry tangled with criminal known by the likes of Captain Cold, Heat Wave, Captain Boomerang, Weather Wizard and the Trickster. Sending each of these felons to hopefully rot in Iron Heights Prison, Barry unfortunately brought them together as they bonded over the one thing they all had in common; a hatred for the Flash. Unfortunately for Barry, Captain Cold had a sister who had dubbed herself the Golden Glider. Joining forces with two new players known as Mirror Master and the Pied Piper, the Golden Glider managed to break out the other felons. Joining forces, the felons branded themselves as the Rogues and sought to bring chaos to Central City.

Overwhelmed and outgunned, Barry was nearly killed as he charged headlong into the combined forces of his greatest enemies. Forced to retreat, Barry realized he couldn't just rely on his powers to beat every foe. Instead he began to think and eventually realized that the relationship between the Rogues was built only on a selfish desire to see him dead. Breaking the team apart, Barry was eventually able to pick them out one by one. Having outed himself to Joe and Iris, Barry convinced Joe to have the Rogues imprisoned separately in maximum security to avoid any further communication.

2015-PRESENT | UNTRAVELED ROAD:
"Ever since the big man fell at the hands of that monster, I can't help but be reminded of our own mortality, of how limited our time here is in the grand scheme of things. It's made me realize that we should spend every moment we can surrounded by our friends and the ones we love. To treasure them and remind them every day just how special they are. On that note, Iris West, will you marry me?"
-Barry Allen, New Years Eve 2015

While new threats seemed to appear constantly, there was nothing that could have prepared Barry for the arrival of Doomsday. Tossed aside by the beast during the Justice League's first run at the monster, Barry was powerless to stop the ensuing death of Superman. Resolving to better himself as a hero and make time for those he treasures, Barry proposes to Iris who immediately says yes. Now dealing with the fallout of Superman's death and making plans for his pending nuptials, Barry has to balance his life as a hero more than ever.

| ATTRIBUTES: |
SPEED FORCE CONDUIT:
The Speed Force is a vaguely defined extra-dimensional energy force from which most superspeed-powered heroes draw their powers. The Speed Force serves as the ultimate measure of velocity. Velocity is often referred to in terms of barriers: Sound barrier, Light barrier, Time Barrier, Dimensional Barrier, and finally the Speed Force Barrier. Barry Allen is the very source and creator of the Speed Force,and generates it with every step he takes. For this very reason, he is unaffected if any other speedster tries to steal or drain his speed. Barry Allen is the fastest of the Flashes, and is arguably one of, the fastest beings to have ever existed. He is currently fast enough to easily break all of the barriers and even enter the Speed Force itself, and is one of the few people to have ever escaped from it. He does not often go beyond Mach 10, as speeds above that level are catastrophic to the environment. To this extent, Barry can most likely reach any speed he can imagine, and more.

SUPERHUMAN SPEED:
Speed Force conduits have one main ability above all else. Conduits are connected to the barrier and accumulation of all Speed known in their universe. These characters immediately understand how to run at superhuman speeds and their bodies instinctively understand how to react at high-speed situations. Older speedsters have a reduced but maxed speed of 770mph which is just below sonic booms allowing them to react to situations without causing civilians undo stress. Speedsters in their prime can travel at much faster speeds such as the max level of recorded aided speed on Earth and even reach the speed of light with enough willpower. It is possible for conduits to travel much faster than the speed of light however such levels require an incredible amount of stress. Speedsters unaccustomed to their max level of speeds may detach themselves from the Speed Force or even become part of the Speed Force by accident.

SUPERHUMAN AGILITY:
Barry is incredibly agile, able to change direction immediately. This allows him to make sharp turns on city streets without sliding or losing his balance, and helps him leap farther and higher while running.

SUPERHUMAN REFLEXES:
Barry's increased speed also augments his reaction time, allowing him to react to danger and events far faster than a normal human. When shot in the neck on his blindside, Barry was able to catch the bullet and minimize the damage before it could fully penetrate his skin.

SUPERHUMAN ENDURANCE:
Barry's body can handle the stresses of superhuman racing without noticeable distress, and his body's enhanced stamina allows him to function much longer than a normal human without getting tired or weak. Barry is able to recover from attacks and exertion much quicker than normal humans. While his durability is no greater than before, he has been able to withstand being struck with Weather Wizard's lightning, with him only being stunned for several minutes, as well as only being stunned by Grodd's strength.

ACCELERATED PERCEPTION:
Barry's speed also extends to his senses and mental capacities, able to take in information and process it just as fast. This allows Barry to see the world as if it is in slow motion, which combined with his physical speed lets him think, perform actions, react to events, long before a normal human around him could even perceive them.

RAPID CELLULAR REGENERATION:
Barry has dramatically heightened healing capacities. This is caused by his body's molecules moving at accelerated rates, causing the chemical reactions responsible for metabolism to mend and even restore any damages much quicker and efficiently than regular humans. His body can heal itself in hours or days with little to no treatment or therapy. After breaking his wrist while testing his new-found speed, Barry made a full recovery within three hours with no lingering effects or even signs of it having happened. Even normally permanent damage to his body, like becoming a paraplegic, will completely repair itself within days. His body also has a heightened resistance, if not immunity, to any sickness, disease, toxins, and poisons. Normal drinking does not affect him consuming a special 500 proof alcohol only intoxicated for a few seconds. Similarly, when injected him with 2,000 milligrams of horse tranquilizer, Barry was only momentarily slowed down until he burned through it. Further testing of Barry's body has speculated that this augmented metabolism is drastically reducing his aging process while likewise extending his health and longevity.

CELLULAR VIBRATION:
Barry has the ability to vibrate some or all of his cells and overall parts of his body on command for various effects. His bodily control can vibrate his entire body to mask his form from others clearly perceiving it and distort his vocal cords to disguise his voice. Similar, he can vibrate his cells fast enough to forcibly expel any toxins that do manage to affect him. He can vibrate at varying frequencies and with different levels of force, allowing him to create small tremor-like effects on any object or person he touches. Later learning how to vibrate all the cells in his body at the same frequency as air, Barry can allow himself to seamlessly pass through any solid target unfazed. His can also choose which matter he phases together with him as he phased Iris and Joe both in and out of moving vehicles.

FORCE GENERATION:
Through Barry's ability to accelerate his movements, he can generate great amounts of physical forces through kinetic energy and friction, allowing him to overpower regular humans with little to no effort. Through generation of his accelerated momentum, he can propel himself through the air and create substantial frictional force with any object he comes into contact with, able to jumped over 15 feet in the air. The friction from his speed can also cause extreme heat and set objects ablaze. Alternatively, his enhanced speed lets him channel the force into powerful strikes, often propelling targets several feet. Barry has an increased level of strength added to his body which he can impart in different ways. He can strengthen each and every move he makes however this requires attention and stress for each movement and therefore is almost never used. In most cases Barry can focus the Speed Force's extra-dimensional energies into one massive punch. The force he generates can even produce sonic blasts with his strikes, enough to disable a meta-human who could become as strong and hard as steel. Similarly, Barry is able to hurl a bullet from his hand with enough force to penetrate a powerful barrier and still pierce clean through a person.

VORTEX GENERATION:
Using his speed, Barry can control air flow on all levels by moving through them fast enough and create vacuums. He can suffocate people by creating a strong vortex around them by running around them. He can spin his arms at the speed of a tornado to remove air from fire and extinguish it and repel targets away. For larger scale feats, he can completely removing the physical force from massive tidal waves and stabilize a giant singularity by running back and forth or in a circle.

SKILLED TACTICIAN:
A keen-minded individual, from a young age, Barry quickly showed a natural understanding and quick capacity to learn, making it hard for his foster-father Joe to help him with homework by the time he was twelve. Barry is also very well-read, greatly impressing even award-winning professors. Barry is a capable tactician and leader. In times of crisis when the other leaders of the Justice League have been indisposed, Barry has managed to keep the remaining team together and lead it well. Barry's intelligence made the Chief of Police trust him enough to make Barry the new head of the Special Investigative Unit at the Central City Police Department.

FORENSIC EXPERT:
Barry is a highly skilled forensics examiner. From a single glance of the crime scene, he can quickly determine much of the events that transpired. Barry has repeatedly been able to quickly analyze any given data and quickly form accurate theories on the given situation.

CHEMISTRY EXPERT:
Barry's knowledge and skill in chemistry is very advanced, shown when he was terrified at how certain chemicals were stored at a lab at Queen Consolidated, describing them all as the definition of dangerous. He has also been able to cure a poison victim using only a small amount of rat poison and consequently dosed with a blood coagulant. He could also use unknown types of chemicals to make a compressible micro-fabric costume for himself that resisted the extreme forces of fiction his speed exerted upon it.

| CHARACTER NOTES: |
| ALLIES: |
IRIS WEST:
The adoptive daughter of Joseph and Francine West, Iris was born to a family she never knew before being left on the footsteps of the Midvale Orphanage. Adopted a year later by Wests who were unable to have children of their own, Iris was raised as their own child. Entering into kindergarten, Iris met Barry Allen with the two becoming quick friends. The two remained inseparable from that point on. However Iris' life was not free of strife as her mother suffered a severe back becoming addicted to her prescribed pain killers. Eventually Joe convinced Francine to commit herself to rehab, however neither Iris or Joe heard from her again. Entering into highschool, Barry and Iris began to drift apart as they found themselves in separate social circles. Graduating with honors, Iris took an interest in journalism and attended the local college for such. Upon graduation she found herself work with the Central City News and became one of the first reporters to write on the Flash. Eventually Barry revealed himself to Iris as the two entered into a romantic relationship.

JOSEPH WEST:
The father of Iris West and foster father to Barry Allen, Joseph was a close friend of Henry and Nora Allen when they first moved to Central City. With Henry's conviction and Nora's death, Joe became Barry's foster father and while the relationship between the two was originally rough, they became very close as time went on. Joe was the first person that Barry revealed himself as the Flash to and has become one of his most valuable allies in his mission to protect Central City.

*It should be noted that Joe West is based upon his CW counterpart, whereas Iris is on her comicbook one. Albeit with notable changes. Due to not blood relation, Wally West would be directly related to Joseph by blood but not Iris. Personally I was thinking Joseph's nephew.*

| CHARACTER GOALS: |
My goals for Barry are to show him constantly moving forward. While he has thus far accomplished quite a bit in his career, there's a lot more to go. With the death of Superman, I want to show Barry stepping up to take more weight than he can handle, eventually breaking when confronted with the truth about his mother's murder. My story arcs will involve the Rogues, Grodd, and off course Eobard Thawne.

That all said, I'd also like to state I'm open to collaborative story arcs between other League Members and potentially Kid Flashes and/or Jesse Quick.

| SAMPLE POST: |
The platter of empty burger containers had piled up as Iris stared across the booth at Barry in disbelief while the mummers of disdain from other customers tickled the back of Barry's ears.

"A guy's gotta eat folks." Barry said with a shrug as Iris shook her head.

"This is why we should only ever get take out." She said with a wry smirk. "Your appetite draws way too much attention."

"Hey, I put more miles on these legs in an hour than most people put on their cars in a week. I think I deserve the right to as many Big Belly Burgers as I want."

"You do Barry," Iris paused looking around with a glare as everyone else went back to their meals. "Just not in public, okay Sweetie?" She added reaching across the table with a napkin before Barry snatched it out of her hand and dotted against his own mouth.

"So what's next on the agenda? Movie? Mini-putt?" Barry asked as he leaned over the table and pecked Iris on the lips.

"Well, provided you're free..." Iris started before the sound of sirens interrupted her. "And now you're not." She said with a sad smile as Barry pulled out his cellphone. A text from Joe illuminating the screen as Barry swiped his finger across the screen.

"Armed robbery on fifth." Barry stated. "Don't worry Babe, I'll be back in a..."

"Flash." Iris replied with an amused smirk. "Go get 'im Tiger."

With a kiss on the cheek, Barry was out the door. Ejecting his suit from his ring, Barry quickly changed into the Flash as the street became filled with a streak of red and yellow. The sights and sounds of Central city flew past Barry as he weaved in and out of the streets. The smells of the various street vendors filled his nostrils as Barry jumped up over a line of stopped traffic, the momentum carrying him the distance as he landed and continued without a loss of velocity.

Coming up on the blinding flash of red and blue, Barry rushed the scene as the armed criminals raised their weapons. Breaking the next speed barrier, Barry disarmed the criminals before a shot could be fired. Discarding the weapons at the feet of the police officers, Barry continued moving as he borrowed a couple pairs of handcuffs off the belts of the officers. Cuffing the thieves together around a nearby light post, Barry came to a stop beside Joe West.

"All yours from here Officer." Flash stated with a smile and a salute.

"In a hurry tonight Flash?" Joe said with a smile as Flash nodded.

"Got a hot date Officer, I was always taught to never keep a lady waiting."

With a chuckle, Joe replied with a pat to the Flash's back. "Sounds like a wise man taught you that, don't let us keep you Flash. We can take it from here."

"Good night Officer." Flash said as he sped away.

@BOUNCE IS HEEEERE, AHHHHHH.

The rest of you are cool, too, I suppose.


In all fairness, I think we've all missed Bounce.

Since I'm finally back at a computer.

Is there anyone who'll squawk if I do a Poison Ivy? (Mainly those who want to play Batman) I don't plan to tie her to Gotham in any specific way. :\


I see no problem with it.
