## Biography

### Childhood

> "I must've been crazy to put Jason in the field before he recovered from his loss. His father; murdered by Two-Face, his mother succumbing to illness. His actions as Robin are guided by unresolved pain and anger."
>
> Batman, Batman: Death in the Family

After Jason's parents were killed, his father assassinated by Two-Face and his mother to sickness, Jason was left to survive by himself, turning to a life of thievery at a young age.

One night, Jason had attempted to steal the Batmobile's tires, but was caught by Batman. Instead of punishing the young boy, Bruce taken him under his wing as the second Robin, due to Dick branching out and becoming his own hero.

### Becoming Robin

Now Robin, Jason was Batman's current sidekick.

When first trying on the suit, Jason snuck behind the Bat-Computer and climbed up it. Alfred believed Jason was stunned by the cape, while Batman already knew what he was up to. Jason would jump down and try to scare them, although failing to do so, only scaring Alfred.

As a result of Jason's energy due to his age, he grown better at crime fighting at a more rapid pace, from being able to save mayor Hamilton Hill from a gang to being able to stop Riddler just by jumping onto him, even making a joke about how Riddler leaves riddles behind.

### Jason's Death

As Jason aged, Jason became more ruthless and his relation with Bruce had grown further apart and become more strained.

He aided Batman in fighting a gang in the middle of a dealing, and ended up breaking one's collar bone, disappointing Batman. Bruce had attempted to convince Jason what he had done was overkill, only to Jason's dismissal, believing what he had done to the man was rightful, as the man was among the many criminals in Gotham bringing down it's reputation. After Jason learned that he had put the man in shock, Jason felt remorse but had ultimately still felt justified for his actions that night.

He, also, at some point, learned of fellow teammate, Batgirl had been crippled by Joker in her own home in order to kidnap Commissioner Gordon, in order to get to Batman. Gordon was saved, as Barbara continued to aid Batman and Robin as Oracle.

When the League of Assassins had something bigger planned, they hired Joker to use as a red herring. Batman and Robin would chase him around Gotham Bank and fight his goons until losing him.

Finally tracking the Joker, they locate him in a warehouse as some of his goons had escaped. He tells Batman to chase him while he stopped the Joker. Instead, Jason was kidnapped and beaten to death with a crowbar. Despite Batman's efforts, he's seconds too late to get to the scene, Jason being killed in an explosion of the warehouse following his torture by the Joker. Batman held Jason's dying body, watching his life slowly fade away.

### Jason's Rebirth

Jason was later resurrected in the Pit of Lazarus by the League's Ra's al Ghul with a sense of guilt for being the primary cause of Jason's death. As expected, Jason had came back more ruthless and insane, fleeing from the League and becoming the vigilante known as Red Hood. Within his time period of escaping, Jason had hunted down and decapitated some of the biggest dealers of Gotham.

Returning to Gotham, he headed to a warehouse where drug lords hid, discussing their boss Black Mask. After shooting up the table, he tossed the dealers the heads of their majors. Upon hearing Red Hood's demands, them asking what's in the deal for them, he offered them protection from both Batman and Black Mask, as long as they didn't deal to children; which would get them killed. He had two men steal and deal an Amazo bot.

Upon the men and the Amazo being defeated, the 2 men ratted out Red Hood, causing Jason to shoot and kill both of the men before they could say anything else. He ran from Batman and Nightwing as they chased his throughout Gotham City. He chased Jason into Ace Chemicals, where he would refer to the first Red Hood, the Joker's, transformation in there. He later shot his car, causing the building to explode with Red Hood escaping.
