Red Hood

**Jason Peter Todd** (ジェイソン・ピーター・トッド, *Jeison Pītā Toddo*) was a street orphan until he met the Dark Knight after stealing the tires from the Batmobile. Jason was trained by Batman and later became the second **Robin** (ロビン, *Robin*), but he was beaten and tortured by Joker, who sent Batman a video of the event and lied by telling Batman Jason Todd was already dead. Batman fell into a deep depression over Jason's "death".

Years later, Jason returned driven bent-seeking revenge against the Batman, utilizing advanced technology and resources he acquired by unknown means, he was able to develop high-tech equipment & train a battalion of soldiers well. He even designed a high-tech bat-suit with capabilities that are more advanced than Batman's technology as well as utilizes lethal gadgetry and weapons during combat situations. He had then created the identity for himself as, **Arkham Knight** (アーカム・ナイト, *Ākamu Naito*), a mysterious antithetical military version of Batman, who lives to strive only but revenge, until his redemption and forgiveness of Batman.

After finally aiding the Batman to battle Hugo Strange and his TYGER, vanquishing his former persona, Jason Todd was able to lay his vengeance against Batman to rest and begin to heal the damage that was inflicted on him in the Arkham Asylum. It was during this recovery, he takes up the title of **Red Hood** (レッド・フード, *Reddo Hūdo*), leader of an anti-hero team called the "Outsiders".

"*How long did you wait before replacing me, huh? A month? A **week**? I **trusted** you... And you just left me to **die**! You always told me Bruce... focus on what I want to achieve... and it'll happen. Well you want to know what I want now, huh? I want you **dead**.*"

—Red Hood.

### Biography

Raised in the slums of Gotham City, Jason was the son of a petty criminal and a drug-addicted mother. When his father was imprisoned and his mother died, Jason found himself struggling to survive, stealing car parts for cash. This led Batman discovering Jason in the alleyway, trying to steal the tires off the Batmobile.

Batman took him in and trained him to replace Dick Grayson as Robin. While Jason didn't share Dick's cheerful enthusiasm and acrobatic abilities, life on the streets had made him tough and fiercely driven.

Frustrated at Batman's unwillingness to kill at least one enemy, in spite of their heinous crimes, Jason set out to do it himself, only to get himself captured, tortured, beaten, experimented, and killed, leaving Batman riddled with guilt.

Besides the discovery of a militia training facility in South America, virtually nothing is known of the Arkham Knight until his arrival in Gotham where he quickly earned himself a fearless reputation amongst the city's leading criminals.

Working together with Hugo, he has sworn to kill batman and will stop at nothing until he is dead.

Since vanquishing the Arkham Knight persona, Jason was able his vengeance against batman to rest and began to heal the damage that was inflicted on him in the asylum. It was during this recovery that Red Hood was born.

Now, while he is once again aligned with his former mentor in wanting to rid Gotham of its criminal contingent, Jason's willingness to kill will forever keep him at odds.

### Appearance

#### As Arkham Knight

The Arkham Knight dons a militaristic version of the bat-suit meant to mock Batman's appearance. The inside of his helmet gives him a heads up display of his troops throughout Gotham and the ears relay his commands to his troops. By using the Arkham symbol on his chest plate he inflicts psychological warfare on Batman reminding him of the past Arkham events. The chest plate also acts as a countermeasure to the Batclaw. After revealing his identity as Jason Todd before his final battle with Batman, he wears a red bowl-shaped helmet later used by the Red Hood, another of Jason's alter-egos.

## Personality

### As Second Robin

Jason Todd was the second incarnation as Robin, he cared for his mentor Batman and wanted to live up to his potential, stopping crime and protecting Gotham City. However, he possessed an explosive temper with numerous incidents of him going too far in his actions as Robin despite his natural talents and apptitude under Batman's guidance, with hints in his behavior that he might one day kill instead of using restraint. After being tortured, beaten, and nearly killed by Joker, his mental state was being damaged and fuel to his temper was being added by him, hoping that his partner would come in to rescue him. In time (he survived and escaped, he found a photo Batman with a new Robin); he started to hate his mentor for leaving him to die.

### As Arkham Knight

After escaping (or in comics resurrecting); he became vengeful and wanted to kill Batman. The Arkham Knight seems vengeful but patient and calculating as well. He seems to exploit opportunities as they are presented to him, such as discovering Joker's diary or taking advantage of Batman's presence at Ace Chemicals to instruct his men to avoid aiming at the armored sections of his suit. He also seems psychopathic, displaying no regard for the "weak" Batman protects, contemptuous of the Dark Knight's principles and mercilessly killing those he deems deserving, such as the second Electrocutioner and remaining members of Joker's gang, in cold blood. When Hugo asks why he hates Batman to such a degree the Arkham Knight coldly responds that no one could understand. Jason also is blinded by rage for Batman leaving him to die, as shown when he cost Scarecrow's toxin machine to be dismantled by the Batman's Batmobile.

### As Red Hood

As Red Hood, he is still murderous and cold-blooded assassin, as shown when he nearly killed Black Mask, especially when he was panicking out of his mind and begging for mercy, but ultimately driven by justice. Once snapped out, he showed some emotion and helped his former mentor to stop TYGER.
