Why are you here when you should be writing posts?
You can edit a bad draft, but you cannot edit a blank page.

Huh.
Learned something new.
I really hate the 'E. Nygma' being his real name. I realize this is comics and all but still lol. So I use E. Nashton and if necessary to clarify the E. Nygma is an alias he lives under.
I too have left an opening for those who wish to join me in my holiest of crusades.
G O T H A M C I T Y - D E V I L ' S S Q U A R E
The sound of sirens seemed to have become Gotham's steady backdrop since the disappearance of the Batman. With the Bat gone, numerous criminals had managed to evade the police, worst still several of Batman's most dangerous rogues had managed to escape their holdings. Among these escapees was the father of Stephanie Brown, Arthur Brown or as he was better known to the people of Gotham, the Cluemaster.
Arthur had been in and out of prison for most of Stephanie's life meaning the girl barely knew her father. What she did know however was that her father had been a game show host at one point before the network pulled his show leading to Arthur and Krystal - Stephanie's mother - living in one of the poorer regions of Gotham. Posessing a genius intellect, Arthur found a way onto Gotham's local TV Station and made a wager on air that he could deduce the identity of the Batman,
Sadly that was only the first of Arthur's bad decisions.
Realizing that he would never deduce the Batman's identity through legal means, Arthur began to hire petty criminals to lure the Dark Knight out. It became something of a game for Arthur who began to leave clues for the so-called World's Greatest Detective. Drawn into his own game, it was soon Arthur leaving the clues for the Batman as he began to lead the crimes personally.
This only sped up his capture, as Arthur soon found himself lounging behind the bars of Blackgate Penitentiary. It was here that Arthur soon met a man by the name of Eddie Nashton. A thin and wirey man, Eddie didn't seem to pose much of a threat to Arthur but harboured a strong dislike for the other man. It didn't take long for Arthur to deduce that Eddie was in fact the infamous Riddler. By leaving direct clues for the Bat, Arthur had tarnished Eddie's gimmick, ruined the game.
And thus a bitter rivalry was formed.
A rivalry that was very clearly on display as clues and riddles alike plagued Devil's Square. Wind blew a few loose strands of Steph's blonde hair as she held her hood tightly over her concealed face. Flourescent question marks were sprayed on the aging brick wall as last week's papers rolled back with the cold gust. Laughter echoed down a nearby alley as an ignorant couple strolled into Devil's Square. Within seconds the resounding sound of metal slapping against flesh rolled through the air as five men in green jackets cornered the couple.
"Well howdy-ho, what do we have here?" Came the call of the first man as the group chuckled.
"Looks like a couple of love birds out for a walk." Came a second voice as the girl screamed. Her arms seized from behind as her boyfriend grunted from a fist to the gut.
"Young and in love, bet they'd like to play a game!" Called a third as he snicked, running a hand up the woman's bare leg as she cried in protest.
"Answer our riddle and you'll be on your merry way, answer incorrectly and we'll play a different kind of game." The fourth sung with a wicked smile and eerie tone.
"What occurs once in every minute, twice in every moment, but never in a thousand years?" Asked the fifth with a wide smile. The woman's eyes opened wide as she went to answer before a hand was shoved over her mouth.
"Let the gentleman tend to his damsel." The man whispered in the woman's ear as the male scrambled for an answer.
"The let-" His answer was cut off as the hook of a crow bar was thrust into his gut.
"Time's up!" Yelled the second thug with cruel glee. "Restrain him!"
"Hey bozos!" Steph's voice called, echoing through the alley. "Your turn!" The Spoiler yelled as she landed, her staff in hand. "What's green at nine, purple at ten and black and blue in the morning."
A smile crossed her face beneath her mask. "Your asses after I hand them to you."
Good one Steph. She groaned inwardly. Perhaps this was why Batman was the strong and silent type.
The ends of her staff became a blur of motion as Steph loosed her triple staff. The crack of several fingers breaking echoed in her ear as one of the Riddler's goons foolishly tried to grab at the staff. Bringing the weapon around, she impacted the other end with the back of his skull dropping the man to the ground. Hands wrapped around her waist as Steph found herself hoisted into the air. With a grunt, she raised her knees to her chest before heaving them back hard, winding the man holding her as she hit the ground with a role. Reattaching the staff together, Steph delivered a quick jab to the bottom of the man's chin before vaulting over he man's head and delivering a kick to the base of the thug's spine.
Two down, three to go.
A sudden flash followed by a loud bang caught Steph off guard as she dropped the ground, the gunshot reverberating through her skull as searing pain bit through her shoulder.
Keep it together Steph, it's only a graze.
She felt like she was going to vomit. Her vision was alternating between bursts of colour and blinding darkness.
Stupid move Steph, stupid. Should have checked for a gun. Her inner voice was screaming, or maybe it was the woman she was 'rescuing'. Either way this was not Stephanie Brown's finest moment.

"Here's the deal, I'm a 'punch first, ask questions later' kinda gal."
//ABILITIES:
//SKILLS:
//LIMITATIONS:
//WEAKNESSES:
■ ACROBATICS | A trained gymnast, Stephanie is more than capable of keeping up to even seasoned vigilantes in terms of free-running, parkour and acrobatic maneuvers. That said, she's still well below veteran acrobatics such as Nightwing in terms of skill.
■ MARTIAL ARTS | Krystal enrolled Stephanie in self defense at a young age due both to knowledge of her father's hobbies and the nature of Gotham itself. As she grew, Steph has learned a variety of techniques from karate, kung fu, taekwondo, judo and even jujitsu. That said, she's more of a 'Jill of All Trades' than a master of one. Due to her size and stature, Steph has relies on her stick fighting more than her own fists.

Due to her size and stature, Steph has relies on her stick fighting more than her own fists.
//SKILLS:
■ STICK FIGHTING | As the Spoiler, Stephanie uses a multi-section staff weapon which allows it to act as either a bo-staff, nunchuka, three section staff or two separate escrima sticks. Although skilled with these weapons, Steph has received next to no formal training and could easily be overwhelmed or defeated by a skilled user.
■ COMPUTER HACKING | Steph has rudimentary skills in hacking, capable of accessing various social media outlets but beyond that is unable to overwrite another user or backdoor into another system.
■ ESCAPOLOGY | Steph is fairly flexible and able to make her way out of most conventional bonds and restraints. By no means a master of escape, Steph has made it out of more than a few sticky situations.
■ INVESTIGATION | Something of an amateur detective, Steph is able to follow leads and even understand forensic evidence in order to track foes and unravel mysterious that plague the streets of Gotham.
■ STEALTH | While no where on the same level as Batman and his associates, Steph is capable of hiding herself in most dimly lit areas. Her stealth abilities are further increased by a personal cloaking device stolen from her father's arsenal.

//LIMITATIONS:
■ YOUTH | Stephanie's young age limits her in many ways. It causes her to be undervalued by other vigilantes, it reduces the amount of experience and skills she has. As well as her access to assets and funds in order to boost her own gear and equipment.
//WEAKNESSES:
■ INEXPERIENCE | A side effect of Stephanie's youth is her lack of valuable experience in the war on crime. As such her inexperience could very well get her killed on Gotham's streets.
■ LIMITED EQUIPMENT | Despite having been gifted a utility belt from Batman, Stephanie otherwise uses homemade equipment. That said this equipment is repossessed from her criminal father and therefore isn't simply jeans and a leather jacket. But it is not the high grade kevlar and nomex mix employed by the Batfamily. As such Stephanie is vulnerable to all conventional forms of harms and highly vulnerable to anything non-conventional.

//DESCRIPTION:
Stephanie is a girl of above average height and a fit atheltic figure. Considered to be somewhat busty by many of her male classmates at Gotham Community College, Stephanie is regarded as attractive by most standards. In her day to day life, she generally dresses casually, preferring jeans over most other legwear but isn't above wearing yoga pants on a lazy day. In terms of tops, Stephanie owns a wide variety of shirts, most of them in brighter colours, favouring primary colours that wouldn't look out of place on a hero in Metropolis. Stephanie has bright eyes that can appear blue one day and then green the next. Most often they appear teal on an average day. Her hair is a bright natural blonde, kept long in length and is well taken care of rarely looking disheved or rough.

"I'm almost fifty per cent sure nothing could go wrong."
Stephanie Brown was born to Crystal Brown and Arthur Brown, or as her father was better known - the Cluemaster. She grew up ignorant of her father's other life, despite the fact Stephanie's father spent most of her early childhood in jail, away from Gotham City. One night, about month after her father had returned home, Stephanie woke up to a strange noise only to find the Batman with his hands around her fathers' throat. Seeing the young girl, Batman decided not to return Arthur to jail. Going back to sleep, Stephanie eventually convinced herself that the it had all been just a dream.
However the visit from Batman did little to deter Arthur and soon the criminal mind returned to his old tricks. Updating his personal modus operandi, the Cluemaster went against his name, now pulling heists without leaving clues behind. Inspired by the visit from the Batman, Stephanie created her own costume in an attempt to try and stop her father. Dubbing herself 'the Spoiler', Stephanie discovered her father's plans locked away in the basement and decided to leak them in order to stop him. Using a social media account designated 'Spoiler Alerts', Stephanie released clues onto the web for Batman and the GCPD to stop the Cluemaster.
Despite being new to the world of capes, Stephanie is able to get by through her enthusiasm and dedication to her own personal vendetta. Unable to directly confront her father, Stephanie kept watch, following the Batman from a distance and eventually joining the fight when the Caped Crusader engaged the Cluemaster. Sending Stephanie home after the conflict was resolved, it didn't take the Batman long to determine the identity of the Spoiler. Impressed with Miss Brown's tenacity, the Batman left Stephanie a present, her own utility belt. Armed with the necessary tools, Stephanie continued to develop her skills.
Learning her father had escaped Blackgate, Stephanie has resumed the identity of the Spoiler and has vowed to return her father to prison.
