*"I warn you. I’ve been trained to kill since birth." --- Damian Wayne*

## **Biography**

### ***Early life***

Damian was born to Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul. But Talia kept Damian a secret from Bruce and the world. Damian was raised and trained by his grandfather Ra's al Ghul and Talia in the ways of The League of Assassins so that he would eventually lead humanity.

#### *Meeting Bruce*

One morning, as Ra's al Ghul was overseeing the League's training with Damian and Talia, they were abruptly breached by an attack caused by an army of assassins led by Slade Wilson, a former apprentice of Ra's al Ghul and mercenary calling himself Deathstroke. Talia took Damian to the bottom level of the League's fortress and went to help fight off the invasion. Damian helped fight the invasion and shoot down multiple assassins using a gun dropped by one.

As Ra's al Ghul was about to get killed by Deathstroke, Damian intervened and fought Deathstroke, managing to blind him in one eye using his sword before Deathstroke got away with Ubu, another one of Ra's al Ghul's former henchmen.

Damian followed his grandfather to the Lazarus Pit, but Ra's died before he could get to the pit. Talia arrived and when Damian tried to get Ra's into the Lazarus Pit, Talia advises against it, saying the Pit can't heal a body as damaged as Ra's was. Talia then took Damian to meet his father.

On Gotham Docks, Damian was introduced to his father, Bruce, also known as Batman. Talia left Damian with Bruce and they went to the Batcave where Damian observed it. He was then led to his room by Alfred Pennyworth.

#### Wayne Enterprises

The next morning, Damian was working out in the garden, chopping down garden bushes in half, as a training exercise. Bruce and Alfred oversaw this and Bruce were impressed by Damian's talent.

Damian visited Bruce at his office at Wayne Enterprises. He told him of Deathstroke's right-hand man Ubu who was stationed in Gotham and who he believed could lead him to Deathstroke so they could kill him. Bruce said they don't kill and tried to explain to Damian how Ra's was a madman, but Damian rebuffed it, saying Ra's was a hero and died one. Bruce realized that Damian stole data from the Batcave and sent him back to the mansion. Damian said he owed his grandfather a death.

#### *Taking Matters Into His Own Hands*

Damian located Ubu who was with harlots at his apartment. Damian broke in, scared the harlots away, and fought Ubu. Damian demanded to know where Deathstroke was, but Ubu wouldn't say anything. The fight led to the other end of Gotham where Damian was about to kill Ubu with his sword if he refused to talk. Ubu told Damian to do his worst. Just as Damian was about to kill Ubu, Nightwing interfered and defeated Damian, tying him to a pole.

#### *Becoming Robin*

Damian led back to the Batcave, looked at the Robin costume and traded insults with Nightwing. Batman criticized Damian for "being a child" and almost going too far with Ubu. Damian rebuffed it as it was easier his way, but Batman said it had nothing to do with easy. It was about doing what’s right because it's right. Batman then allowed Damian to become Robin.

#### *Meeting Bianca Gordon*

Barbara introduced her little sister, Bianca to the batfamily. She developed a close bond with Damian. Initially, their interactions were marked by Damian's skepticism towards Bianca because he saw as too timid and fragile. However, Bianca's determination and unwavering loyalty gradually won Damian's respect.

As their relationship deepened, Bianca became Damians confidant, the one person he trusted with his fears of his past.
