History: Born to two of Gotham's wealthiest citizens, Bruce Wayne was just a boy when he watched his parents get murdered in front of his eyes. The mental scars have never healed, and shaped young Bruce into the man who would eventually become Batman. Bruce spent more than a decade training under the League of Shadows before learning of their true nature, and leaving them to return to Gotham City. He used his considerable fortune, and the assistance of a few close allies, to outfit himself for his crusade against Gotham's criminal underworld.
However, being Batman wasn't without its own troubles. The rigorous training regimen he put himself through, coupled with the wear and tear his crime fighting activities, and wild lifestyle he had to adopt to explain his injuries, took their toll on Bruce's body. Coupled with the mental and emotional stress he went through dealing with first the Joker, finding out he had a son named Damian by Talia Al Ghul, then dealing with Bane, caused Bruce to seek a way to leave Batman behind forever. For a time, he succeeded, leaving the name Wayne behind as well. But his retirement didn't last long.
Despite having left his whole life behind, he couldn't escape his past so easily. Batman had become more a part of him than he'd realized. And Selina Kyle hadn't been so accepting other retirement either. Adding to their tensions was the existence of Damian.
Now facing having to deal with a son he hadn't known about, and the departure of Selina Kyle back to a life of crime in Gotham, Bruce resolved to return as well, and once more don the black cape and cowl. With that decision in mind, he contacted Alfred and Lucius Fox to, once again, return from the dead, and obtain legal custody over young Damian. He also informed Lucius that his suit was in need of a few upgrades.
Sample Post: Late at night, under cover of darkness, Batman crouched on a building top overlooking The Narrows. He scanned the dark streets and alleyways with a pair of high powered binoculars. Somewhere, among the narrow twists and turns, the deep shadows, the crumbling tunnels, HE was hiding. Bane. The deadliest foe he'd ever faced. He didn't know yet why the masked man had returned to Gotham, but he knew it didn't bode well for the city's safety. After a moment, he keyed a secure radio.
"Oracle, I'm getting nothing from up here. He's still not showing himself. You intercept any radio chatter? Anything?" he asked, then listened as she responded, still keeping a watchful eye opened. He sighed lightly as she replied in the negative. "Alright. Just let me know if you pick up anything."
He put the binoculars away, and stepped onto the edge of the building. he spread his cape, and glided to another vantage point. After he landed, he paused to be certain he'd gone unnoticed, then crouched on the building's edge. Once again, he began scanning the area, watching through his binoculars. He had a feeling it was going to be another long night.
