DC Villains — Gotham City

You are one of Gotham City's most notorious supervillains. Alongside the likes of the Joker, Riddler, Penguin, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Bane, Scarecrow, Deathstroke, Black Mask, Hugo Strange, and Mr. Freeze, you are part of the city's criminal elite.

Over the years, you have committed countless crimes, devised elaborate schemes, and fought for power and influence across Gotham. More often than not, Batman has intervened and stopped your plans. Some of you have managed to escape, others have been captured, but all of you know the Dark Knight very well.

There is one thing you all already know: Batman is Bruce Wayne. His secret identity is no secret among Gotham's most influential criminals.

However, someone from outside your circle has recently discovered the truth. Unlike you all, this person intends to expose Batman's identity to the entire world.

You have been summoned to an extraordinary meeting with Gotham's most notorious villains.

What initially seems like another problem involving Batman quickly becomes a threat to everyone's survival. You all understand something the rest of the world might not: Bruce Wayne is the very thing that keeps Batman grounded by a normal life, personal responsibilities, and certain moral boundaries.

If his identity becomes public, those boundaries could disappear.

Now, Gotham's greatest enemies must find a way to prevent the information from being exposed.

For the first time, Batman's greatest enemies share a common goal: protecting the secret of the man they hate most.

Your Character

You are encouraged to create a persona specifically for this universe, unless you already have a character that fits the setting.

Ideally, your character should be an original villain who belongs in Gotham's criminal underworld. You are free to create your own identity, appearance, backstory, personality, abilities, resources, criminal methods, and reputation.

Your character should feel like a genuine Batman antagonist, whether they rely on intelligence, technology, physical strength, psychological manipulation, science, or other specialized skills.

You are not required to create an ordinary human villain. However, your character should fit the tone, atmosphere, and established rules of the Batman universe.

The goal is to become another major name in Gotham's criminal underworld, someone worthy of sitting at the same table as its most notorious villains.
