[attr="class","rostercat"]RICHARD JOHN "DICK" GRAYSON [attr="class","rostercatsub"]FULL NAME | [attr="class","rostercat"]18-19 [attr="class","rostercatsub"]AGE |

[attr="class","rostercat"]Dick was trained by Batman in escapology, criminology, fencing, stealth, disguise, and a half-dozen martial arts disciplines, including aikido, savate, judo, and capoeira. He is a master acrobat, considered by many to be the best. He speaks about seven languages fluently and is a master at rallying his peers. He is also a highly skilled hacker. [attr="class","rostercatsub"]SKILLS/POWERS | [attr="class","rostercat"]He may be at the peak of human capabilities, but when it comes down to it, he’s just as physically vulnerable as any other human. He also tends to have a stubborn streak that can get him into trouble. He also has a habit of overworking himself to his own detriment. [attr="class","rostercatsub"]WEAKNESSES |
[attr="class","rostercat2"]Dick Grayson was born the first day of Spring to a family of acrobats, known as the Flying Graysons. When he was about nine years old, however, his parents fell to their death during a performance. This was the doing of Tony Zucco. Bruce Wayne, who had been in the audience at the time, saw himself in Dick and later decided to take the boy in. Not long after, Dick discovered that Bruce was Batman, and he began training as Robin, the original Boy Wonder. He was a founding member of the Team. He had the most experience out of everyone on the Team, causing him to initially believe that he was cut out to be leader. The Team eventually elected Kaldur as the leader, but Kaldur himself admitted that Dick was born to lead the Team some day, when he was ready. After the events of the failed training simulation, he began to doubt himself and the goals he once held. He no longer wanted to take over the cowl of Batman, realizing that he didn’t have it in himself to sacrifice as much as Bruce did. This train of thought lead to him taking on the identity of Nightwing (naming himself after a Kryptonian legend). This new identity brought Dick the confidence he had lost and allowed him to be his own person, no longer living in the shadow of the bat. He moved to Bludhaven, Gotham's sister city that was drowning in corruption. He’s become Bludhaven’s resident hero, dividing his time between there, the Team, and occasionally Gotham. Following the death of Wally, Dick has left the Team and is going solo, trying to figure out his place in the world. [attr="class","rostercatsub2"]HISTORY | [attr="class","rostercat2"]What was he doing? The wind rushed by, rustling his raven hair. His eyes narrowed, watching as the cars below drove by, going about their lives. He sighed. He had lied to his friends. Still was. They believed Artemis was dead. Because he had told them so. They’d never forgive him, not when they found out. And they would find out, because Artemis was not going to die. He had to believe that in his heart, even if he wasn’t quite so sure in his head. His jaw set in a hard line as he realized who would pull a move like this; Batman. This had the Dark Knight written all over it. No, that wasn’t right. It was an essential move by the good guys. They didn’t have much of another option either way. They had to find who the Light’s partner was and what they were doing with the abductees. If a little bit of a mess had to made in the process, then so be it. This was reality, and sacrifices had to be made. God, he sounded just like Bruce. Of course he did. The man had basically raised him. He held no ill toward the man at all, but that didn’t mean he wanted to be like him. Batman was who he was because he was willing to sacrifice almost everything. Dick couldn’t bring himself to do that. He treasured to many people, too many experiences. But that didn’t make him any less of a hero. He sighed again from the roof where he knelt. His thoughts were all over the place tonight. That was fine, though. He had to keep it together in front of the Team, but he had to work through it sometime. Better now than when others were depending on him. He glanced below him to a gaping gargoyle. The cliché of it all almost made him smile. “What do you think I should do?” He was counting on the gargoyle being able to read his mind. [attr="class","rostercatsub2"]WRITING SAMPLE |
