## Biography: (Written by Oracle)

### Childhood: 1991 - 2001

Born March 21st, 1991 to famed acrobats Mary and John Grayson as Richard "Dick" Grayson in Gotham City as part of a traveling circus named Haly's Circus. Mary would call Dick her little Robin from birth. One of Dick's earliest memories was when he was on a swing soaring in the air to his mom's arms.

Training for a some time, Dick joined his parents as an official acrobat at the age of 8. With Dick joining them, the "Flying Graysons" were truly filled. Becoming an official part of the act, the press labeled him the Boy Wonder.

But then something happened in 2001. In 2001, Haly's Circus stopped in Gotham and became part of a charity event. The charity event would be attended by Bruce Wayne, Tim Drake, and... Tony Zucco. Zucco tried to get money from Jack Haly, the owner of the circus, by blackmailing him. But Jack turned down the offer, which Dick saw.

Dick and his parents were one of the acts that was part of the event. And when Mr. Haly refused Zucco's offer, he retaliated by sabotaging one of the acts. Unfortunately, the act Zucco had chose to sabotage was the Flying Graysons act. So when they went on to do their act, Dick watched in horror as the wire snapped and his parent's plummeted to their death.

Since social services were full, Dick was placed in the uncaring juvenile services system. Dick was later beaten by some of the inmates and as a result was sent to a catholic orphanage. Seeing what Dick was going through, Bruce decided to adopt the young boy.

### Childhood: 2001

At first, Dick and Bruce had a rocky relationship as Bruce was mostly absent, hunting down Zucco unbeknownst to Dick. And when he was Dick would constantly challenge Bruce. Eventually Dick was tired of Bruce being absent and his parents' murderer being out there free. So at night, he snuck out in order to find Zucco himself.

As Dick went around the city, he looked for every criminal and scum. But eventually Dick got himself in trouble. At the last moment, as the crook was about to attack Dick, Batman swooped in and grabbed Dick before putting him down. Batman turned around and took down the criminal.

In the aftermath of what happened Batman took Dick to the Batcave. Once in the Batcave, Dick turned to Batman yelling at him that he had it. At that moment, Batman took off his cowl revealing himself as Bruce Wayne to Dick. Dick's anger disappeared as he realized that he was Batman's adopted son.

After this Dick began pestering Bruce to let him be his sidekick. And while Bruce rejected his offer multiple times, Dick was persistent. Bruce saw how adamant Dick was and his need for vengeance, something Bruce himself had when he was Dick's age. And while Dick already had the reflexes and speed needed to keep himself alive in the field, he needed the fighting skills. So Bruce agreed to take on Dick as his sidekick, if Dick was willing to train. Dick of course agreed and trained for the following months.

During this time, Dick began attending Gotham Academy and Alfred would constantly push Dick to be better in his academics. And it was at Gotham Academy that Dick would meet me, where he developed a bit of a crush on me. I would become one of his greatest friends and at the time was one of his only friends. And as 2001 was coming to an end, so was his training.

### The Boy Wonder: 2002 - 2008

As Dick was finishing his training, Bruce decided that Dick was ready. When Bruce decided this, he called Dick Batboy which Dick refused to be. If Dick was gonna be a sidekick, he needed to come up with his own name.

Instead he chose the name Robin to honor his parents. And instead of having Bruce design his suit, Dick chose to design it himself. While designing the suit, Bruce occasionally would give his own ideas. Dick would refuse those ideas but would implement some of those ideas when Bruce left Dick's room. Once Dick finished, he sent the rough sketch to Lucius.

Once Lucius finished and sent the suit to Dick, Dick tried it on and loved it. When Dick became Robin, he kicked off the age of sidekicks. And he made his debut when he and Bruce took down his parents' killer, Tony Zucco.

Later in the year, Dick and Bruce fought the Red Hood Gang. The Red Hood Gang wanted to poison the city but Dick and Bruce arrived. Bruce battled their leader, Red Hood One on a catwalk over some vat of chemicals. And as they battled, Bruce knocked the villain over the rails and by accident caused him to fall into one of the vats.

The following year, Dick and Bruce began taking down most of the mobs and gangs of Gotham. And on October 31st of that year, the trial of Carmine Falcone began. Sal Maroni was originally going to testify against Falcone but the night before, a man approached him and gave him something to use against DA Harvey Dent. And so during the trial, Maroni was called to testify. And when Harvey began asking Sal questions, Sal threw acid across the left side of Harvey and as a result he was disfigured and turned into Two-Face. As a result, the Long Halloween began.

Over the course of 2004, as the Long Halloween continued, Dick and Bruce began taking down costumed and superpowered criminals. They took down the likes of Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, Mister Freeze, and many others. But the worst of them was the Joker, a psychopath originally hired by the mob but let go after being too much to handle. Joker was also revealed to be the man behind the start of the Long Halloween as he was the one who gave Maroni the acid. Another thing revealed was that the Red Hood leader who fell into the acid was the Joker.

In 2005, a man named Killer Croc tried to attack Batman. But Bruce with Dick's help defeated the metahuman. As a result, Waylon was taken to Arkham. Later in the year, Bruce and Dick teamed up with The Flash and Kid Flash. It was here that Dick and Wally became best and lifelong friends. But that was not the only things to happen that year. Enter: Batgirl.

When I had become Batgirl, I convinced my father, Jim Gordon, to take me to GCPD. Once in the GCPD, I hacked into their database for any active cases I could solve. But while searching, a store began to be robbed by what remained of the Red Hood Gang. It was nearby the GCPD and ran there before Dick or Bruce could arrive. I was able to take down a few of them but they soon overpowered me which is when Batman and Robin arrived.

Together we had taken down the rest of them. But after the battle had finished, when I had tried to convince Bruce to let me be their partner, he quickly responded with "Back off, Barbara". After being stunned, I quickly followed them but lost track a few minutes later. But I knew the direction they were heading and deduced where they were going, Wayne Manor.

The next day I had convinced Dick to take me to the Manor under the guise of "studying there". After a while of studying, I inspected the house claiming that I needed to use the restroom. While searching, I came across the Grandfather Clock that led to the Batcave. I inspected it and opened it, finding the entrance to the Batcave. But once I did Bruce appeared and called Dick. I explained how I figured it out and as a result I should be taken on. Bruce told me it was reckless being a hero but that he was impressed with what I had done so he took me on as a sidekick.

In 2006, Bruce and Dick fought the Penguin after he decided to take his small criminal dealings and expand them. They defeated him and locked him up. Later in the year, Dick took up a small case which led him to Jump City. While there, some alien spaceships crashed landed and Dick ran there. Seeing the armored aliens, Dick knew he would not be able to take them on alone and called someone who could get there faster, Kid Flash.

Once Wally arrived, they began taking down the aliens. But this is when they noticed other people battling the aliens, their old friend Speedy aka Roy Harper, and other protégés such as Wonder Girl and Aqualad, who they have had some interaction with in the past. Yet there was one they did not, Cyborg aka Victor Stone. Together the heroes fought against the aliens.

Then one of the ships opened up and out came another alien, though this one was chained up. After a few seconds Dick went up to her and tried to pick the lock but failed. But then the alien's eyes started glowing and she broke her chains. Immediately after, she fell and Dick caught her. When he did, she kissed him. She then said that her name is Koriand'r which would translate to Starfire in English. She also explained that she was from a princess from an another planet and that he sister overthrew the throne and exiled her as a slave.

After this Dick and the others went to the Hall of Justice to see what was going to happen. Bruce and Clark admitted that they did a good job but that they should've called the League. They also said that they had good teamwork. Then Wally suggested that they should form a team like the Justice League and Bruce admitted that it wasn't a bad idea. So after a brief discussion Wally and Dick came up with the name... the Titans. Clark joked about them being Teen Titans and the name stuck.

The following year, after a mission, Dick got into an argument with Bruce as felt that Bruce was treating him like a child when he was almost an adult. As a result their relationship was strained and Dick began hanging out with the Titans more. And with Dick spending more time with the Titans while I was helping Bruce, our relationship really didn't go anywhere and when we had an argument later, we broke up. Dick and Titans would fight the first Ravager but Ravager's heart failed. Later in the year, Bruce and I took down the Joker and Harley Quinn. Dick got mad with Bruce as Bruce didn't call on him for help. He also began dating Starfire.

Then the Judas Contract happened. Deathstroke attacked the Titans and picked them off one by one. But Dick managed to escape the trap and researched Deathstroke. Here he found that Deathstroke had an ex-wife, Adeline Kane, and two sons Joey Wilson and... Grant Wilson aka Ravager, the one who fought the Titans and died. It was here that Adeline and Joey had approached him. Then Dick and Joey infiltrated Deathstroke's Lair but he caught them. Then the Titan turned traitor Terra, realized that she truly was a Titan and saved them at the cost of her being buried under the rubble of the Lair.

The next year, Deathstroke returned. To get close to him, Dick became the villainous Red X and began committing robberies and whatnot to get Deathstroke's attention. After a few days of doing this, he approached Deathstroke to work with him and Deathstroke agreed. And so Deathstroke made Dick steal some computer chips from none other than Wayne Enterprises. Dick was hesitant to do so but did it anyways. When he did, the other Titans came to stop him but he knew them and their weaknesses. Using their weaknesses against them, Dick had defeated them.

Dick returned to Deathstroke and gave him the chips. Once he took the chips, Deathstroke turned on Dick and attacked him, revealing that he knew Red X was Dick. Dick and Deathstroke fought each other with them fighting to a standstill when Deathstroke revealed that he was going to kill the others. With this, the other Titans arrived and together defeated Deathstroke. Deathstroke admitted that Robin was a good fighter and leader and then he disappeared.

This caused his relationship with the Titans to be strained. And then the worst of that year happened. While Dick was with the Titans in Jump City, the Joker had escaped Arkham and became more set on hurting Batman and my dad. They way he hurt my dad was by coming his family, and what he did to me almost broke my dad and even me.

While my dad and mom were at work and I was at home, someone had knocked on the door. I had got up and opened the door which is when the Joker shot me. By the time my dad arrived, the Joker was gone and I was passed out from losing a lot of blood. When Bruce found out he immediately called Dick and Dick spared no time arriving in Gotham.

Once in Gotham, Dick went to my hospital room and vowed to take down the Joker once and for all. Bruce and Dick immediately set out to track down the Joker. Once they found him, Dick was ready to kill the Joker. And as he was about to, Bruce stopped him. This enraged Dick and as a result Dick swung at Bruce and gave him what Bruce considers the hardest blow he has ever had. By the time I awoke a few hours later, Dick had quit his role as Robin and was on his way back to Jump City.

### Nightwing: 2008 - 2010

When he arrived in Jump City, he was still ticked off. When Starfire tried to talk and comfort him but he blew up on her. This resulted in the two breaking up and then Dick quit the Titans. With having quit the Titans and being Robin, Dick spent most of his time with me while I was recuperating in the hospital. Here we began our relationship anew.

But I knew that something was bothering Dick and that he needed hope. So I called in a favor from Clark to talk to Dick. Dick and Clark had a conversation and Clark told him about something that they did on Krypton. The story told by Clark inspired Dick to take up the name of Nightwing and return to crime-fighting. But before he did, he went to train with Chu-Hui, the true master.

Dick also made amends with his old friends but decided not to rejoin the Teen Titans. During this time, Steppenwolf attacked and invaded the Earth. So Dick and the Titans decided to protect the civilians from this. In the aftermath, the League was proud with what they did and invited Dick, Wally, Roy, Kori, and Donna to the Hall of Justice. All of them thought it was for them to join the League but as Roy called it, it was just a "glorious backstage pass".

So Roy and Donna left and went back to the Titans. Meanwhile Dick and the others stayed. Then the League had to go on a mission and Dick and the others stayed put. Except Dick was tired of Batman as he had recently learned that Bruce took in another orphan, Jason Todd, and was even training him. But as Dick was getting ready to leave, the alarm went off.

Dick used the computer skills I taught him to hack into the computer system. He found out that Cadmus Labs was up in flames. With what he knew of Cadmus, he decided it would be best for them to go see what happened. Shortly after they arrived, Superboy arrived. There they saw many genetic projects which is when they got caught.

Some scientists caught them and they unleashed some of the genetic projects against them. But the heroes banded together and began defeating them. One scientist by the name of Mark Desmond saw this and drank a serum that turned him into Blockbuster. He proved a great challenge for them but in the end the heroes defeated him.

By the time they finished defeating Desmond, the League had arrived. The League decided that they were good heroes but still were not ready to join the League. But they were willing to teach them. So the Team was formed as a team under the League so that the League could mentor the young heroes and help them.

Towards the end of the year, Dick began reconnecting with Bruce, rebuilding their relationship slowly. And Dick began warming up to Jason and even gave him his blessing to be the new Robin. And everything seemed good for Dick and he moved to Blüdhaven to protect it. In 2009, the Team began investigating a group called The Light. Then Dick visited the Titans to see how Jason and Helena were holding up (he also dragged Wally with him).

During this time, Raven's father Trigon invaded Earth and they banded together to stop him. Eventually Dick and everyone was turned to stone except for Raven. But Raven overcame her fear and defeated Trigon. Later in the year, Dick and the Team battled Match and defeated him. When Scarecrow took over Gotham with his toxin, Dick helped administer the antidote in the aftermath. It was also this year that Dick began college for a law degree.

In 2010, Jason died at the hands of the Joker. Dick even attended the funeral of Jason and Bruce began Operation: Thrillkiller, a manhunt for the Joker involving the League and other heroes. Then Dick and the Team took down some members of the Light and were able to defeat them. Later in the year, Bruce adopted another kid, Tim Drake.

Tim asked Dick to help Bruce by becoming his partner again but Dick refused. Instead, Dick chose to train Tim and have him be the new Robin, though really not officially. He even had Tim join the Titans to further advance his training. And then the following year happened...

### The New Batman: 2011

In 2011, The Cataclysm and the mass release of Arkham and Blackgate happened. These events were all orchestrated by Ra's al Ghul to get back at Bruce. Bruce began wearing himself out over three weeks and when he fully exhausted himself. So then Bane attacked Bruce and "effectively broke the Bat". Tim and I called Dick and explained the situation and he rushed over to Gotham as fast as he could.

But when he came, we tried to convince him to become Batman in the meanwhile. But this was something Dick swore he would never do, he didn't want to become like Bruce. But after a much needed talk, me and Bruce managed to convince Dick to become the new Batman, but every Batman needs a Robin. So Dick agreed to become Batman if Bruce would allow Tim to become Robin, which he begrudgingly agreed to.

But during this time, Bane had essentially conquered the rest of Gotham and had the bridges connecting Gotham to the rest of New Jersey blown up. With criminals on the loose and the city overrun, Gotham was declared a No Man's Land. With Bane having overrun the city, Ra's, Talia, and two members of the League known as Azrael and Kharuf 'Aswad had made themselves known in Gotham. But they never expected Dick to become Batman.

Now, when Dick was ready, he and Tim had become the new Dynamic Duo, taking down the crime in Gotham slowly but surely with the help of the Birds of Prey and Bruce's cousin, Kate Kane, who had recently become Batwoman. With the crime going down and a new Batman in the fold, the League had to change and quicken their plans. Sending Azrael and Kharuf 'Aswad against Dick and Tim. As they battled, Azrael was beating Dick while Tim and Jason fought. When Azrael beat and unmasked Dick, Kharuf 'Aswad stood in shock and said one word "Grayson". Tim took the opportunity and punched the guy and knocked off his mask and revealed that Kharuf 'Aswad was none other than Jason Todd.

While Jason was regaining his stance, Tim helped Dick escape from the grasp of Azrael. Dick quickly put his mask on and fought Azrael. When he saw he was losing, Azrael quickly grabbed Jason and fled back to the League. When informed of the revelation, Bruce was shocked to his core and dedicated more time to recuperating. When Azrael saw that Batman was Dick and not Bruce, he went a little crazy. And Jason was regaining his memories. So Jason separated himself from the League and went into hiding.

A few weeks later, Azrael showed up again, this time in a different suit and claiming to be the true successor to Batman. Azrael showed the beaten body of Bane and declared that he did what no other could do, he beat Bane. He challenged the "current Batman" and Dick answered the call. Dick and Azrael fought and Dick used what he learned from the previous fight to keep his own in the fight. But Azrael's new suit helped him gain an edge.

So Bruce deemed himself good enough and suited up to take on Azrael. Azrael did have the edge cause of his suit and Bruce still being a little weak, but Bruce was smarter and knew the city more. Leading Azrael to a cave, Bruce outsmarted him and used Azrael's reduced speed to his advantage. Forcing Azrael's armor piece by piece, Batman beat Azrael and Jean conceded saying Bruce was Batman and left.

In the aftermath of everything, Bruce and the recently extended Batfam put away all the criminals, the bridges of Gotham were rebuilt, and Gotham returned to normal (as normal as Gotham could get). Tim stayed as Robin, Cassandra stayed as Batgirl (and was adopted by Bruce), and Bruce began searching for Jason. Dick becoming Batman also started a trend that Dick would take over for Bruce when he was unavailable.

### Nightwing Returns: 2011 - 2013

Later in the year, Dick and the team traveled to Santa Prisca. There they worked to stop Kobra from making and selling a version of Venom mixed with the Blockbuster serum. Overcoming many villains, the Team managed to win. Then ARGUS revealed the Syndicate Supreme, their answer to the Justice League.

In 2012, a new Blockbuster appeared and took some control of the criminal underground in Bludhaven. And while investigating Desmond, Dick found about Roman Sionis', aka Black Mask, shippings. So he further investigated the shippings and this led him to a pier in Gotham were Batman was fighting a new vigilante named the Red Hood.

So for some time, Dick stayed in Gotham helping Bruce against the Red Hood. When the Red Hood held the Joker hostage on a bridge, Dick tried to stop him but the Red Hood knew what he was doing and ambushed him. As Dick was coming to, Bruce unmasked the Red Hood and revealed the Red Hood to be none other than Jason Todd.

As Dick was getting up, Bruce and Tim got into the Batmobile and followed Jason. So Dick got up and followed them. As Dick arrived, Jason had disappeared. Then Dick and the Team began looking into the Light's new partner, the Reach. Then they began looking for Terra who had resurfaced and found her and convinced her to use her powers for good once more. This year he began working for the Bludhaven Police Department.

In 2013, Dick began working harder on stopping Blockbuster. As he was working on this case, Dick also began working on taking down the Reach. Dick then managed to take down Blockbuster, even though he would not stay in there for long. Then Nightwing and the Team fought and took down the Crime Syndicate. During this, something happened that caused me and Dick to break up.

Later, Dick and the Team took down the Reach with help of other teams. In the aftermath, Dick and the others left the Team and allowed the members of the Titans who were there at the time to be the next generation of the Team. And when they did, they renamed the Team as Young Justice. But that would not be the end of the first generation of the Team.

With the Crime Syndicate incident and the Reach invasion, the League decided it would be best to have a team that would not be restricted by the law. And with this, the Outsiders were formed. And then something happened... Bruce found out he had a son from Talia al Ghul, Damian Wayne.

### Batman Once More: 2013 - 2014

Damian had a hard time adjusting to this new life. Being the "true son of the Bat", Damian felt that his brothers were not worthy of such titles and felt he needed to prove himself to his father. So after a week of studying the house and the land the house was built on, Damian attacked. Jason was in the Batcave where Damian was headed so once Damian saw Jason there, he attacked him. Damian caught Jason by surprise and quickly defeated him. Damian then took an old robin suit and modified it with his League of Assassins gear to his liking.

Before Jason was defeated, he activated the alarm and Tim arrived in his gear. Tim and Damian fought for a while with Tim winning... or so it seems. Damian actually had been leading Tim to a trap. But Tim managed to see the trap in time and tried to switch it on Damian. But neither fell for the other's tricks and so the battle continued. But in the end Damian was able to use Tim's moves against him.

But then Bruce arrived and saw what Damian had done. He reprimanded Damian and in an act of rebellion, Damian ran away. Damian thought that to prove himself he would not need to defeat his brothers but instead defeat the scum of Gotham. It wasn't until about an hour later that Dick had found Damian in the Narrows where he was planning on executing a criminal. Dick intervened and sort of earned Damian's respect by beating him in combat.

Back at the Batcave, after Bruce again once more butted heads with Damian, Dick talked to Bruce. Dick explains that instead of leaving Damian to his own devices and making Damian feel that he needs to prove himself worthy to be Bruce's son and of Bruce's love. But when they finished talking, Bruce went over to Damian and had a conversation with him. By the end of it, Damian had decided to take up Stephanie's offer she made earlier and became the new Robin.

The next day, Bruce called a family meeting and announced Batman Incorporated, a group that is publicly funded by Bruce and the official protectors of Gotham. It was here that Bruce showed Damian in his Robin costume and Stephanie as Batgirl. Bruce asked Dick to once again take up the mantle of Batman and become the field commander of Batman Inc. for a few months and Dick agreed to do so.

With Dick as Batman, Damian did pretty good in the role of Robin. But there was one problem, Damian rarely listened to Dick and while the job was getting done, innocent lives were being put at risks. After having a conversation about teamwork with Damian, Bruce going to ground him but Dick had another idea. Instead of Damian being grounded, he be put on the Titans. Bruce agreed and so Dick took Damian to Titans Tower to become a member of the team and learn teamwork.

### Nightwing Reborn: 2014 - Present

Later that year, Dick and Kory reunited and decided to rekindle their relationship. And then Dick even helped the League battle Maxwell Lord and the OMACs. And then someone attacked, the Talon attacked. What was originally thought of as Owlman's sidekick was revealed to be none other than Dick's grandfather William Cobb. Dick had a lot of trouble fighting but in the end managed to trap the Talon.

Then towards the end of the year, Bruce was captured by his old friend Thomas Elliot. But Dick and the others knew that they could not attack Thomas as he was impersonating Bruce and if they attacked him, it would ruin Batman Inc. They decided that they would need to come up with a plan but they couldn't decide on any of the ones they came up with.

Then one day, Selina managed to escape. She tried to get Bruce out as well but he told her to escape as he would slow her down. She turned to Helena who helped her. And then Damian, wanting his dad to be safe, called his mother. And while Talia saved Bruce, he still needed healing. So while we didn't like it, Thomas needed to stay as Bruce for a little while longer.

But then the money and fame went to Thomas' head and he started becoming less and less like Bruce. We knew we had to act so we captured Thomas and Dick bargained with Talia. As a result, Thomas was put into jail and a few days later Bruce returned.

In April of that year, Bruce and Selina got married and at their wedding, they announced that Selina was pregnant. A week later, the Robin War had began. Bruce tried to get involved but Dick, Jason, etc. (Robins present and past) told Bruce to not get involved as it would make it worse, but of course he did. Bruce infiltrated the Sons of Batman, the gang who oversaw the We Are Robin group.

Dick and the others trained these kids and Dick even bonded with Duke Thomas, the leader of the group. During this, Bruce saved the life of Duke and as a result outed himself in the Sons. So Bruce confronted the others, telling them that they need to end this. The next day, Duke announced to the We Are Robin group that he's disbanding the group and effectively quitting the Sons.

Then in summer of that year, Ra's declared war against Bruce. Sending his minions against Bruce and the others ever few days. And then in August Ra's launched a full scale attack. So they split into groups with Dick being with Damian and Tim. But then they were split up with Damian battling Talia and Dick battling... Deathstroke.

As Dick fought Deathstroke, he remembered all his past battles with Slade. How Slade hurt his friends and damaged his relationships with his friends. So Dick tried his hardest to battle Deathstroke. But Deathstroke was winning. And as Slade was winning, Dick remembered what Slade taught him, so Dick used Slade's lessons against him and beat him. And with that defeat, Deathstroke respected Dick and left.

During the final battle, Bruce and Ra's were fighting to the death. But in the end, Bruce refused to kill. So as Bruce walked away Ra's got up and attempted to stab Bruce in the back. But Damian had quickly moved and stabbed Ra's. Damian had stabbed Ra's in a spot that could kill him but gave him enough time to be brought to a Lazarus Pit and be healed.

Then the next year, Dick began working on defeating Blockbuster's crime ring. And as he was, he was contacted by Bruce. Bruce then summoned him and the Outsiders to the Watchtower. Once there, Bruce and the other core members of the League informed the Outsiders and the other teams that something is coming.

Then Mister Miracle stepped up and explained that Darkseid is coming. So Dick and the others banded together to fight against Darkseid. And during the battle, Dick took the opportunity to propose to Kori, and she said yes. In the end, they managed to defeat Darkseid. Afterwards, Dick continued to battle against Blockbuster and his crime ring.
