## Robin

### Bio

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 to Batman discovering Jason in an alleyway, trying to steal the tires of 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 The Joker, in spite of his heinous crimes, Jason set out to do it himself, only to get himself captured, tortured and killed by the Clown Prince, leaving Batman riddled with guilt.

### Audio File 1

**Scarecrow**: Patient notes: Gordon, Barbara. Session one. Wake up Ms. Gordon. Wake up! Inject her. Another dose.
**Oracle**: I’m awake, you bastard.
**Scarecrow**: Good. Who is Batman?
**Oracle**: Ask him when he gets here.
**Scarecrow**: Thank you, Ms. Gordon. I was afraid that my preferred interrogation method would not be necessary. Do you know why I where these syringes on my hand?
**Oracle**: Because you’re insane?
**Scarecrow**: I usually disperse my toxin as an aerosol. It’s efficient. But not pure. Now, the terror I can elicit with a concentrated dose, administered into the bloodstream, that is… beautiful to witness. The long-term damage is more severe, of course.
**Oracle**: Are you done talking?
**Scarecrow**: I am. But you have barely begun. You’ll be incoherent when my toxin dissolves the wall between your conscious mind and your suppressed, subconscious nightmares. But as those fears slowly recede, they’ll take this pathetic defiance with them.
**Oracle**: You’re still talking.
**Scarecrow**: Very well.
**Arkham Knight**: Get the hell away from her!

### Audio File 2

**Arkham Knight**: He’s gone. Did he hurt you?
**Oracle**: Spare me the good cop/bad cop routine.
**Arkham Knight**: No, no, no, no. You’re supposed to keep me talking. Play for time. Wait for Batman. That’s what he taught you, right?
**Oracle**: I’ve got nothing to say to you.
**Arkham Knight**: I talked for hours. ‘Cause I know, right? Batman was on his way to save me. The bastard let me talk… eventually I just, ran out of things to say. So trust me. You can’t count on Bruce to save you.
**Oracle**: Bruce?
**Arkham Knight**: Mmm, yeah, Scarecrow doesn’t know. It’s our little secret. Now here’s another. Batman likes to play the hero, Barbara, and he’s pretty good at it. But it’s an act. Batman’s not about saving the innocent. He’s about punishing the guilty. Now, don’t get me wrong. He’ll look for you. Or he’ll try. But when it comes down to it, when he has to make a choice between you and the mission? He’ll choose the mission. Every time.
**Oracle**: You’re wrong.
**Arkham Knight**: Look me in the eye and say that.
**Oracle**: Jason?

### Audio File 3

**Oracle**: Jason, this is wrong!
**Arkham Knight**: This is justice! He left me!
**Oracle**: He LOST you! And he mourned for you. Come home.
**Arkham Knight**: I can’t go back. You don’t know what Joker did, Barbara. He hollowed me out and he filled me back up with hate and…
**Oracle**: Jason, we can fix it…
**Arkham Knight**: I can fix it! I know now what to do. I take all this pain, all this blackness, and I put it all in a bullet, and I put it right between Bruce’s eyes.
**Oracle**: Joker’s dead, Jason. You want revenge on the man who hurt you? You’ve got one shot. Come back to the manor. Let us help you. Don’t let Joker win.
**Arkham Knight**: …How’s Alfred?
**Oracle**: He misses you. We all do.
Scarecrow: The Cloudburst is charged, Knight. It’s time.
**Arkham Knight**: Someone put a gag on her. Anyone hurts her, they’re a dead man.

## Red Hood

### Bio

Since vanquishing the Arkham Knight persona, Todd was able to lay his vengeance against Batman to rest and begin to heal the damage that was inflicted on him in the Asylum. It was during this recovery that Red Hood was born.
