"You wanna know why I sided with the Regime? Infinite knowledge."
Edward Nygma, also known as the Riddler, is a DLC character in Injustice 2.
== Biography ==
=== Origins ===
Edward Nygma was always fascinated with riddles and puzzles. After a teacher announces that a contest will be held over who can solve a puzzle the fastest, Nigma sets his sights on winning this, craving the glory and satisfaction that will come with the victory. He sneaks into the school one night, takes the puzzle out of the teacher's desk, and practices it until he is able to solve it in under a minute. As predicted, he wins the contest and is given a book about riddles as a prize. His cheating rewarded, Edward embraced the mastery of puzzles of all kinds, eventually becoming a carnival employee who excelled at cheating his customers out of their money with his bizarre puzzles and mind games. He soon finds himself longing for greater challenges and thrills and dons the disguise of the "Riddler" to challenge Batman, believing him to be a worthy adversary.
=== In Injustice 2 ===
After the murder of the Joker and the rise of the Regime, Edward makes a deal with Superman that he will help the Regime in exchange for knowledge.

=== Character Trait ===
Box of Riddles: Riddler would pull out a random weapon from a green box with a purple question mark on it, similarly to Harley Quinn's trait in Injustice: Gods Among Us. 
* Pistol: Riddler would pull out a pistol and shoot the opponent with it. If he's unlucky, it will only fire a "Bang!" or "Click Click Click" flag, in which he will throw the gun to the floor in anger.
* Bomb: Riddler would pull out a piece of dynamite and tosses it to the opponent, in which it'll explode on impact. If he's unlucky, it will fail to detonate.
* Pill: The Riddler would pull out a 5-U-93-R pill and consume it, giving him an attack and defense boost for the rest of the match. However, it is extremely rare to get.
=== Super-Move ===
Greatest Riddle of All: Riddler holds out his cane and attempts to hit his opponent with it. If he does hit the opponent, he pulls out a green box and says "Riddle me this." He tosses the box underneath the opponent and a red boxing glove pops out, hitting the opponent in the chin. Riddler charges at his opponent while continuing, "Some try to hide..." He then beats down his opponent using various weapons while saying, "... Some try to cheat but time will show we always will meet." He then places a C4 onto his dazed opponent chest before walking to a safe distance while finishing his riddle by saying, "What am I? Death." He then detonates the bomb, sending his opponent flying.

=== Narrative Quote ===
"I-... I did it. I... BEAT BRAINIAC!!! HAHAH- Errr, I mean- (ahem) O-Of course I did! Why wouldn't I beat Brainiac? And with that, there is nothing I can't do! On my return to Superman, I've realized I didn't need the supply of his so-called "knowledge" anymore, for I am in complete control of everything Brainiac had! I bet that idiotic alien never even had a glimpse of what I had in store! A new world power. One that will easily dominate all others. All with one celebrated leader. Me, Edward Nygma, as... THE RIDDLER! Hahahahahahaha!!! But... Before I do that. I have a score to settle with anyone who ever wronged me. Those jerks should see me now. And they will. In fact, it will be the last thing they ever see..."
