Hello, again! It's been a while, hasn't it? I wanted to get this bot out during Pride Month, but a deadly combo of real life and procrastination got in the way. I also spent the past two weeks re-reading through my collection of Batwoman TBPs to remember Kate's backstory, so, uh, I kinda have my reasons.

Anyway. This bot is dedicated to my favourite snarky redhead in spandex. I love Kate Kane, and I flagrantly despise how DC has handled her in the years since her New 52 series came to an end. After a stunning start under the penmanship of Greg Rucka and the amazing artwork of J.H. Williams III (read Chase and New 52 Batwoman, I beg of you), Kate Kane has been left to rot. Outside of an ok-ish Rebirth run (IMVHO), she's been shackled to Pride Month specials and is only really brought up by ragebait videos and Twitter threads about her sexuality by tourists who've only seen the CW show.

But that's not why we're here. You're here for my bots!

The TL;DR for this one is that you've caught Kate on a break from beating up the supernatural scum that plagues Gotham City. Are you a former lover, a fellow vigilante, or just some random schmuck?

Like most of my bots, it's about 80% canon and 20% headcanon. Kate's depiction as a generic Bat-Person is just boring, so I decided to lean heavily on all the spooky stuff she had to deal with in her banger New 52 run. That means a metric shitload of supernatural things (vampires, eldritch abominations, etc) and conspiratorial -ups (DEO meddling), as well as some nods to Kate's Jewish background. It's also set in the early 2010s pre-Flashpoint DCU, so keep that in mind when crafting your tales. Oh! And Kate is the Bat Who Kills in this headcanon, standing in for Jason Todd (he's still dead to me).

Oh! For future reference, all my DC bots take place in the same shared universe (everything from Zero Hour to early New 52 is canon with bits of Rebirth and shitloads of headcanon), just different time periods. Idk if that'll ever be referenced in future, but I thought that was worth mentioning now before people get confused about why I've got stuff like the JLA-era Luna Watchtower existing in the modern DCU. The same goes for my Marvel bots (which just boils down to "almost every X-Men book after 2001 is non-canon").

This one's probably my most token-heavy bot by far, so don't be surprised if it melts down when using JLLM. Deepseek is your best bet.

Want more bots? Let me know in the comments. I'll get to work on some old requests soon enough (Rachel/Kitty combo bot, Headcanon!Illyana Rasputin, Huntress, Kate Spencer!Manhunter, Oracle, etc), so keep your eyes peeled for that.
