History
Tim was born the son of Jack Drake and Janet Drake, coming from the same social class as Bruce Wayne. When he was very young, he visited the circus for the first time with his parents. The Drakes asked the Flying Graysons for a photo together, resulting in a momentary bond between Tim and Dick Grayson as they met for the first time. Unfortunately, this was the same circus show in which Two Face took over and young Tim bore witness to the death of the Flying Graysons, save for Richard. The Drake family, feeling rather empathetic towards Richard, sent him the photo that their family took with his.
After reaching the age of nine, Tim was able to deduce the identities of Batman and Robin as Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson after witnessing a gymnastic move by Robin that Richard Grayson displayed while performing with the Flying Graysons - a quadruple somersault. Inspired by the heroes, Tim trained himself in martial arts, acrobatics, detective works, in addition excel in scholastic to better himself in both physically and intellectually. When Tim reached the age of thirteen, he noted that Batman had grown reckless and violent following the second Robin (Jason Todd) being murdered by the Joker, Tim decided to intervene and Batman eventually enlisted him as the third Robin after his mother's death and his father's paralysis.
Before joining Batman as the third Robin, however, Tim was sent away to train abroad with numerous masters, refining his already skilled martial arts. Unfortunately, just prior to completing his training, the ruthless Obeah Man later captured Tim's parents during a trip to the Caribbean. The Obeah man intended to sacrifice them, but Batman arrived to their rescue. Unfortunately, Janet and Jack both drank some water laced with poison, and Janet died, while Jack was left in a coma with paralysis. Batman began to reconsider Tim for the role of Robin, due to his fear that Tim was now motivated by anger, just as Jason had been. Tim, however, became more driven by his desire to do what was right, rather than petty revenge. After later saving Batman and Vicki Vale and defeating the Scarecrow, Bruce at last bestowed upon Tim the mantle of Robin, as well as a new costume. However, following the events of his father's death - a boomerang to the heart by Captain Boomerang himself, Tim relocated to Blüdhaven for a period of time in order to escape the "ghosts" of Gotham City and to stay close to his stepmother who had been admitted into a Blüdhaven clinic after going into psychological shock over Tim's father's death.
When Nightwing left the Titans for a short time in order to find himself, Tim followed him and after helping Dick solve a mystery at Haly's Circus, was able to convince Dick that Batman needed help. However, where Dick intended to help Batman as Nightwing, Tim remained convinced that Batman needed Robin more. Dick ignored these pleads and raced off to help his mentor, only for both Dick and Bruce to be captured by Two-Face.
Realizing that his idols were in danger, Tim donned the costume of Robin, at only thirteen years old and with the help of Alfred Pennyworth, was able to rescue them. Batman, although extremely reluctant, accepted Tim as the new Robin on a trial basis after being convinced by the boy, as well as Dick and Alfred. He was trained over several months, first by Alfred, then Batman, and finally Nightwing before ever being allowed to wear the costume again or go into the field. Tim spent the next handful of years training under Batman, though he already showed incredible skill and masterful detective work, Bruce was able to hone his abilities into becoming arguably the best Robin Gotham had ever seen. But instead of taking on the name Robin, Tim wanted to honor Jason Todd's memory and instead began calling himself Red Robin.
Tim eventually filled in the place of leader of the Teen Titans left behind by Richard Grayson in years past. Though he still helps Bruce clean up the streets of Gotham whenever there seems to be a dull period, he spends most of his time at the Teen Titan tower, helping to shape the potential new generation of the Justice League.
Powers/Abilities
Tim has been trained by Batman, Nightwing, Batgirl, Lady Shiva and assorted others in a wide assortment of martial arts disciplines which include but are not limited to Kung Fu, Aikido, Jeet Kune Do, Escrima, Krav Maga, Tae Kwon Do, Judo, Wing Chun, Hapkido, Karate, Savate, Kendo, Ninjitsu, Tai Chi, Leopard Kung fu and Biangan. His abilities with the bo-staff gives him an extra edge with his fighting. He has also been considered the most skilled hero in all of Gotham with his preferred weapon of choice. Although he has not mastered near as many fighting styles as his mentors, he has managed to use the training given to be considered a highly skilled combatant.
Batman and Nightwing have also trained Tim to be skilled in escaping from any trap, lock or captivity, ranging from the most simplistic of handcuffs to the most elaborate of cages. He is by no means a master and still makes a lot of mistakes, but he is well on his way to rivaling his mentors.
His naturally high intellect allows him to excel in computer science and more importantly as a skilled detective. Further more, Tim apparently has a firm grasp of assorted scientific techniques including biology, engineering and genetics, as he has done his fair share of dabbling in cloning. Batman states that Tim could potentially be smarter and better than himself, even, if given time.
Batman also saw to it that Tim was well trained in disciplines, such as forensic, criminology, acrobatics, stealth, disguise, and escapology. His ability to deduce the secret identities of superheroes on his own has been used to underscore his skill. Among the identities used in this way are the Batman, both of his predecessors as Robin, the Huntress, Impulse, the Flash, and Captain Marvel.
Tim, much like Dick Grayson is also a brilliant and experienced strategist with impressive leadership skills, having served as leader to the Teen Titans, Young Justice, and even being placed in charge of the rescue efforts of Blüdhaven by Superman, following the attack made by Deathstroke and his fellow villains. In recent times, he has managed to orchestrate the unified control of the Gotham Street Gangs, thus reducing the threats they pose to the city.
Other
Tim is what you would call a straight-shooter and doesn't believe himself to be above the law. He is still very young at heart, and simply wants things done the right way. That being said, he has never indulged in smoking, drinking or any other drugs and though he has had a handful of girlfriends, has never undergone anything more physically serious than somewhere around second base.
