AnciekAs probably the least involved Batfamily member, any new Batman won't really require a whole lot from me. It's more about establishing the relationship between Dick and Bruce and where they sit with each other. I had always seen this version of Nightwing being a bit later and more independent, the stage of life where your Dad is more friend than mentor allowing Bruce and Dick to be in a more relaxed and mutually respected stage than we've seen in the comics due to the need for drama.
This is very easily done. Given the amount of Batman legacy characters active I will need to have an older Bruce with pre-established relationships to all his proteges. Nightwing will be the easiest to accommodate.
Batman is an interesting case because he does have four other characters directly tied to his lore. That said, I think at the end of the day as long as nothing with the other active players is directly countered, you'd be fine to remove or ignore the rest.
The biggest thorn in my side currently is the direction AndyC was taking with Joker, particularly around the Arkham breakout, as the story I'd like to tell with Batman has a similar catalysing event but unfolding differently for different reasons.
That said, with my base need being 'mass breakout of inmates from Arkham', I can probably work with what already exists without too much ret-conning needed.
Hooray! I'd love someone to play Batman :3
Cassandra Cain needs to become Cassandra Wayne. that's the end goal for me anyway. Cassandra's entire life is basically her role as a vigilante in Gotham, in this instance, as the second Batgirl. Unlike a lot of other members of the batfamily, she doesn't want to 'branch out' or 'move beyond', this is her whole life and in her view, the only thing keeping her afloat.
So I was hoping Batman would go from mentor, to father figure, to actual adoptive father for cassandra. because her last one kinda sucked. she's loyal to the cause through and through. and getting a new family in the form of the bat family would just be really special and a very fun story to write.
I'm also looking forward to her meeting Damian IC because again in my ideal world, they'll become real siblings. :3
Not to play favourites but I think I'm most excited for the interaction between Bruce and Cassandra of all the Bat-family in the game. We'll discuss more privately but I am very on-board with these goals.
As an aside, I'll go over your Wasp sheet today and give my feedback to Wraith.

Wasn't mentioned, but my own is fairly simple. Cops operating in the shadow that the Bat casts over a city.
And I'm perfectly willing to snatch up whatever supporting/fringe antagonists are left on the table.
My apologies - somewhere in the muck I counted you out.
Renee and Marcus offer a unique perspective on the arc I want to play out. Having GCPD in the IC will be wonderful, and with what I'm planning there will be plenty to work with; again, we'll pick up offline.
Thanks all!
