Sofie Vera (Pyosimros)

SOFIE VERA
[
]
Name: Sofie Vera
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Height: 5'6"
Personality:
Sofie comes off from interactions as a kind and energetic soul. She upholds extroverted traits and possesses a sense on insatiable curiosity for the world, often known for living in the moment. Wanderlust and curiosity are both feelings Sophie experiences frequently, and while she unfortunately cannot fulfill the first need due to academics, she can fulfill the second through the Detective Club.
An extremely motivated individual, Sophie is a hard worker. While she doesn't possess the wits or the athletics to get ahead in life, her work ethic supports her when being compared to her pupils. Described as reckless and impulsive -- especially in her extracurricular work -- Sophie primarily relies on gut feelings and split-second decisions rather than pure logic. This occasionally works for the best, though it frequently works for the worst, which causes her to rely on the input of a second-party such as Valerie (even if her decision-making process often aligns with Sophie's).
Her reckless and impulsive behaviour often gives a sense of urgency to her actions, which can feed into Sophie's bossy disposition. Especially seen in her Detective Club work, she can often become the individual who formulates the plans and what to prioritize based purely on how vocal she is. Sophie can be the individual to boost morale, championing her fellow members to victory. Most of these traits such as her extroversion, however, are often tools Sophie utilizes to suppress and escape qualities intrinsically connected to her being.
Sophie can easily be categorized as an escapist; which feeds into her obsession over the latest superhero news and the lore of the strange city she resides in. She relies on temporary distractions and a continuous upbeat attitude to continue on her days, deterring herself from inner emotional insecurities. Overcompensating towards the opposite of her inner qualities whenever in the public eye, Sophie answers introversion with extroversion, self-deprecation with a slightly cocky, bossy demeanour when handling groups. Due to her rather unremarkable qualities both physically and mentally, she tries to compensate it by becoming the loudest voice in the room. Before falling into such a switch of persona, Sophie was known as a shy crybaby; falling into intense sadness whenever the smallest thing goes wrong. This duality and juggling between two behaviours can often be seen through quirks to prevent her melancholic feelings from arising, namely her habit of overreacting and overexaggerating the small details.
Biography:
Sofie was born to two wealthy gothamites, typical shady business mogul types that ruled Gotham alongside the rest of Gotham's elite. While the couple didn't involve themselves in any criminal activities per-say, they sure had a habit of capitalizing on it -- crime was good for business, something they weren't afraid to admit. They followed a method of purchasing real estate at rock-bottom prices precisely after the bat-family secured a neighbourhood, before receiving municipal grant money and running off after taxpayers foot the repair bill. It was a strategy nearly every rich gothamite in real estate took advantage of, and the Veras were no exception.
This, understandably, resulted in an intensive negative public perception towards the Vera family, which caused Sofie to possess a rather lonely childhood. In public playgrounds to the classroom, Sophie was often picked on for her small frame and meek behaviour -- which only multiplied once the other children discovered that her family was essentially profiting off their misfortune. Homelife wasn't any better. Her parents scarcely spent quality time with their child as they focused on increasing the family fortune, leaving her to the care of various maids and caretakers. During the small opportunities Sophie did spent time with her parents, the interactions from them were artificial at best; possessing nearly no ability to interact with children. The only joy she had was reading up on the latest superhero news and imagining if she had superpowers herself. However through a chance encounter with the daughter of Commissioner Gordon, Sofie found a newfound confidence she needed.
At the age of nine Sofie was going through a usual hard time due to her classmates, though this time someone stuck up for her. Roughing them up, to put it lightly, after the ordeal Sofie approached the slightly older girl with the intention of befriending her. Eventually the two began talking, Valerie pointing out that Sofie should stick up for herself once in a while. The event motivated Sofie to gain a newfound confidence and an admiration for the girl, even if she hasn't admitted it since befriending her.
A few years passed and Valerie eventually graduated into highschool, which left Sofie alone once more. Though, unlike before, she managed to keep her head high and made plenty of friends through charm. As she herself graduated, Sofie entered Gotham Academy -- not from academic brilliance, but instead through her parents' bank account. With essentially all her friends proceeding towards more normal high schools, Sofie was a fish out of water with no one to hang onto.
During her first week of school it was rather disorienting. It was her first experience living in dorms and taking care of herself and while Sofie had a nanny assigned to her, the two often scarcely interacted with each other unless necessary. Though, through word of mouth from other classmates Sofie very soon came to realize there was a familiar individual who was attending Gotham Academy: Valerie. It was initially hard to pinpoint her location, but Sofie was nonetheless dedicated in finding her. Sometime after a couple weeks, she discovered her friend was part of a softball game. Attending as a spectator, Valerie soon approached her and the two reconnected once more.
A few months later, from the rumours of various urban myths and criminals lurking around, Sofie was both frightened and intrigued. She suggested a sort of club to Valerie in order to investigate such mysteries, to which she agreed. And with some insider knowledge of tunnels from a certain Rivera, the group unknowingly restarted a club that'd been formed many years before: the Detective Club.
Skills:
Excellent Speaker: Sofie has a knack for speaking and keeping the peace whenever situations turn tense.
Strong-Willed: Unlike in her past, Sofie is emotionally a resilient individual, unfaltering under stressful conditions -- even if she can be a complainer at times.
Gotham History Buff: Sofie is well-read when it comes to the history of her rather strange city, able to recall various factoids and events that've occured over the years. The usefulness of this skill is yet to be seen.
Superhero Enthusiast: Especially on the topic of Gotham-based superheroes, Sofie has an extensive knowledge of superheroes. As with his knowledge of Gotham, the usefulness of this skill is yet to be seen.
Flaws:
Frail: Sofie isn't physically the most resilient individual. She can only handle so much physical stress before caving in and retreating.
Headstrong: She's adopted a sort stubborn attitude towards things, always believing that her way is correct.
Not Self-Reliant: Throughout the years Sofie always needs someone to take care of her. Whether it be a friend or her parents' fortune, she hardly can be successful without someone guiding her.
Secretive: Sofie keeps her inner being under lock and key, which often comes into conflict whenever she needs to truly connect with someone.

Valerie is a straightforward person, though this often ends up as her being blunt; she has the tendency to say what she thinks regardless of who she's talking to. Blake chafes somewhat against rules and authority, which appeals to her intense love of personal freedom. She is quite adventurous and can be prone to recklessness at times. She’s also a pretty easy-going with a good sarcastic wit, and an irreverence about pretty much everything. Blake is also very open; ask her anything, and she’ll give you a decent reply. She has no need to hide anything or to avoid certain topics, which is why you can read her like a book. Valerie’s pretty open with her emotions as well, and will never hesitate to tell people how she feels. As she is so open and accepting, you'll find it quite easy to trust her with your deepest darkest secrets. If you tell her anything, she'll for sure keep it to herself. She wouldn't ever intentionally go around gossiping about the things people have told her.
However, she is incredibly sensitive when it comes to her loved ones and will anger incredibly quickly should one insult, hurt, or otherwise cross them. When truly angered, Valerie will drop all semblance of emotion from her face in cold rage. If you use her, trick her or in any way hurt her, don't expect her to forgive you that easily. She is a master of the arts of holding grudges, and will probably spend an unnecessary amount of her time loathing people. It is incredibly difficult to snap her out of it, the only bodies currently able to do it being the people she adores themselves. As such, it is quite fortunate that this is a fairly rare event.
Biography: Valerie lives with her single parent father after her mother died shortly while giving birth to the lovely soul. She has strived to be the greatest since then, as a token to her mother; the child believes that serving justice to those that need reminding, being true to herself and her family, and generally being the best that she could be would be enough to suffice for the lose of her mother. The name Blake developed due to her antics of being a superhero like the rumours of the one that roams the very city she lived in, thus she believed that Blake was the most badass name there ever was. Her dad—James Gordon, Police Comissioner of Gotham’s Police Depatment, encouraged the kid to be able to be the best of the best. Sure he couldn’t be there physically all the time—considering the responsibility of being a male single parent of a growing daughter was difficult enough on top of the work load— he at least desperately tried to get her exposed to everything. He made her do sports since a young age, introduced her to different subjects and books she may like, and even treated her for her success. Valerie knew her dad was trying his very best regardless of their situation, and she thoroughly appreciated it.
The child soon entered highschool just barely turning 14, and as exposed to the most idiotic system of cliques. She HATED the overly common stereotypes for friend groups, athletes and the bookworms. It felt like she was in High School Musical, but a terrible bootleg of it. For the first year, she couldn’t tolerate most of the people there; it was an unbearable mess of angst, sweat, and complaints. She mainly stuck her head in the after school sports sessions, featuring a variety of track, volleyball, dragon-boat racing and softball. It wasn’t until the very beginning of sophomore year, where Valerie was met with a peculiarly familiar face. Blake’s name had started to grow very popular around the school considering her became very notable for her athletics—as well as for her experience in history and geo. She soon came to realise that BLANKITY BLANK (thanks a lot pyo) had also joined the school. Not knowing that her old childhood friend had been in the same school as her, she soon approached the girl after the end of her softball game (which they won of course). BLANK and Val spoke for a while, and began to easily slip back into the friendship they once had together. It was great; highschool didn’t seem as bad anymore now that Val wasn’t fully alone.
A few months into the sophomore year, the crime within the city had reached an all time high; practically there was a new mystery every two weeks, and father grew even busier than before. This sparked the idea for BLANKETT to create the crime fighting, mystery solving, unstoppable club that they have present day. Of course, Valerie said yes; why wouldn’t she? It was her dream to solve mysteries like her dad—if not, alongside him.
Motivations for Joining the Detective Club:
Ever since Valerie was a little kid, she dreamed of being like her father after watching him expand his capabilities over the years as both a responsible single father and a exceptional role model for her and the Gotham community. She wishes that she could grow up to be just as motivational, inspiring and independent like her dad, and the first step was understanding how to get your clues and know your facts.
Skills:
Blake is extremely strong and feisty for her appearance, due to the amounts of sport, gym and boxing training she has done within her life. Her bravery and recklessness also helps most times as it allows her to not back down from a fight. She is more than capable of fending for herself and her peers. She also is extremely well with identifying the problem and finding clues that potentially link to them; a trait she thankfully inherited from her father.
Flaws:
Blake is EXTREMELY hot-tempered; anything that she does not like will be made known to you... very aggressively. Because of this, she tends to not be able to be as communicative as she would like to be, but that doesn’t mean that she still isn’t open. Valerie also tends to be reckless as stated before but because of this trait, it makes her unable to perform at her best; i.e. she can sometimes almost Saratoga a plan with her actions if she really doesn’t think about it for a moment.

"Clueless because I haven't found the clue."
Appearance: Standing at a below average height of 5'7'', Jae-Jax may be shorter than most, but he does make up for it in other aspects of his appearance- at least according to his family. With light-brown hair, deep brown eyes, a charming smile, solid frame, and soft complexion, makes him "The most handsome boy in all of Gotham", according to his mother. Jae-Jax in school is usually seen with a black bomber jacket covering some sort of t-shirt with a basic design and jeans. Outside of school, that's when he breaks out his collection, dressing to impress, tee's, Jordans, nice jackets, jeans, and accessories. The one thing he never leaves home without his is a silver ring, inscribed with 재 (Jae in Korean) his one tie to family in Korea.
Personality: Jae-Jax, is one with "The Gift of the Gab" he can talk and talk and talk for hours on end if he so wanted to, but- out of respect he tends not to- just don't get him relied up on something he's passionate about and then, you'll see the Gab. He is loud, energetic, and adventurous, with his love for music, how could he not be? He's quite intelligent too, despite being quite clueless and having a habit of wandering off mentally, he still can ace tests and recover in a conversation if he spaces out. He loves to write and read, so you can find him sometimes doing one of the two. Jae is a dreamer and he's got a lot of dreams, he loves to travel, mainly to places with the ocean. Jae-Jax is loyal to his friends and to his family, and while not the best man in charge, he is a great right-hand man, being able to lend an ear, give advice, or get his hands dirty when the time calls for it.
Jae's main weakness is him not being able to express what he's thinking emotionally or at all when it comes to himself, his dreams, hopes, wishes, and some minor things he can vent about? Those are fine, he has no trouble with that- but its the big stuff he has trouble expressing, family problems, relationships, questions about himself, and a few other things, Jae can just never seem to find the words or the way to express it to those listening, which is why he usually doesn't share said thoughts or make any mention to them, despite the fact that is quite obvious when the teen is spacing out.
History: Born in Gotham to an American father and a Korean Mother, on September 14, 2002. His name comes from his parents not being able to decide whether he should have a Korean or an American first name, so they settled on Jae-Jax. Jae is the second oldest in the family, behind his sister Kim, and older than his other sisters, Kei and Alice. At an early age Jae grew an interest in music and learned to play Violin, Piano, and a little bit of flute, along with singing because- why not? He was and still is a great student, a great test taker and usually sits towards the top of the class rankings- even if it doesn't seem like it. Jae has relationship issues with his mother and father, his mother due to her wish to be involved in everything that Jae does and him not having much say in doing what he wants, and his father due to his busy work schedule and him not being around the house for long. Despite all of that though, Jae loves his family for everything, because even if they don't get along, they still support him.
His oldest sister (Kim) is currently attending a college in Korea, Kei is just in elementary school, and Alice is in pre-school, leaving him usually with the big brother role with Kim away. The one thing Jae treasures is a silver ring with his name in Korean etched in it, a gift from Kim and the extended family in Korea, Jae is the only child who has not made it to Korea yet, so its one piece of home that isn't home.
Currently, Jae is a sophomore, shockingly, and coming back to Gotham Academy, joining up with the rest of the gang, his wish is to either attend school in Korea or just somewhere that isn't Gotham when college comes a knocking on the door- but hey, he's still got a while to go!
Reason(s) For Joining: Jae wants a sense of freedom and something that he can do to not coming home to a screaming mother all the time. He wants to do something more, something bigger than him to spread his wings and fly.
Skills/Notable Abilities: Jae is a musician, with the ability to play quite a few instruments. He is quite smart and able to lend a helping hand when it is needed. Also, while not a leader, as mentioned earlier he's a great right-hand man when it comes to it, being able to assist with any cause! If he agrees with it of course. Again, because of his naturally friendly personality, he's a charmer and usually easy to make friends with- and get out of trouble when the time calls for it, an almost silver tongue if you will!
Flaws: Jae has a horrible habit of zoning out and doing on a different loop in his mind, and while yes he can come back and generally figured out what he missed, he has a habit of doing it during important moments. Jae's wish for freedom sometimes clouds his mind and he doesn't make the best choices. And finally, that almost silver tongue isn't one hundred percent effective. And the worse of all... Sandals

Gender: Female
Appearance:
She gets her red hair from her mother, whom she has never met. Dick doesn't talk about her.
Age (14-18): 16
Height: 5'11 1/2
Year: 11
~Style~
Tomboyish-Comfortable
Danni has a sense of fashion, sure, but she hardly uses it. When not wearing her uniform, She can usually be seen wearing a t-shirt (sometimes with designs, sometimes just plain grey/black/white, but always soft and comfy) a pair of Jeans or sweatpants, and a pair of grey or black fingerless gloves. In-uniform, she opts for the pants option that would normally be boy's wear, adds a pair of fingerless gloves, and a loose tie.
She usually either wears her hair down or in a low ponytail.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Personality:
Danni's a sucker for action, but it has to be the right kind of action. She's a lawful good, but at some times, when her idea of what's right doesn't fit the actual rules, then she doesnt hesitate to do what she feels is morally right.
A friendly but also sometimes Shy person (when faced with a cute boy), she's not hesitant to make friends with the outcast and defend those who are being bullied.
She's also a genius, and gets straight A's.
Bio (paragraph minimum):
Despite having an active hero as a father, Danni never had "daddy issues." Dick took good care of her. They ate dinner together as often as possible, home-cooked meals or outings to the local mom'n'pop diner.
He spent quality down time with her at the Gotham Park. They talked about anything and everything (except Danni's mom, but Danni stopped being curious about her mother after a while). He taught her how to swim, and helped her with homework as often as she needed it. Danni put on movies and Dick would make popcorn, and the two would share a blanket with the lights off while the movie played out.
Despite their close relationship, Dick never stopped thinking that she should stay out of the trouble that he regularly got himself into.....
Which she didn't.
Against her Father's wishes, she learned Judo, Jujitsu, Tae Kwan Do, and boxing, as well as became a chemical, mathematical, and political genius. She took Gymnastics classes, practically ate up the news, solved puzzles that sometimes even he couldn't solve, learned how to use a bo staff, and pushed herself to her own physical limits in endurance and strength. However, when she asked him to join him in the field, he refused. He didn't want to put his little girl in danger. The first time she asked and he said no, they had an argument and Danni locked herself in her room until the next morning. Every time after that, it's been more casual, but the tense feeling in the air after she pops the question lingers for a long while.
Danni hasn't stopped asking Dick about a chance to prove herself, and despite his firm, repetitive answer, she keeps looking for ways to do so anyway.
Reason for Joining the Detective Club:
To prove to her Father that she can be out in the field, and be good at it. Also, it sounds like a good way to make friends, which she loves.

Skills:
Capoeira
Boxing
Multi-Language Mastery
Swimming
Extreme sports (skydiving included)
Gymnastics
Flaws:
Loyal to a fault: Danni isn't afraid to throw herself headfirst at whatever is threatening those who she has deemed as friends or family, and this can get her into trouble. She would rather get hurt herself than watch people she cares about get hurt, and if faced with a "do this or your friend dies" situation, she literally would not hesitate to do whatever "this" is, even if it is in entire juxtaposition with her moral compass.
A bit of a know it all: she doesn't mean to be rude, but extensive knowledge of a lot of usually useless facts is a bane when it comes to trying to make friends.
Hot headed: Normally, Danni let's insults to her slide right off like water off of a duck's back. However, insult her family --the BAT family, that is-- and you'll be faced with a terrifying red whirlwind of anger and vindication. The same thing goes with her friends.
Stubborn: Once she makes a decision, the Grayson girl is hard-pressed to change her mind. It's practically impossible to get her to do something else whenever she has made up her mind about what she's going to do. However, there are exceptions to this rule (see loyalty).
Afraid of failure: Danni will do everything she can to make sure a plan goes smoothly. Whether it's homework, or a test, or a scheme or goal, Danni's fear of failure is the thing that drives her to be better-than-perfect. This doesn't mean she's a bad sport, though. After all, losing to an opponent in sports or a game of cards/boardgame/video game is different than outright failing at something.
*Powers (minor powers please): None to speak of.
Oddly high alcohol tolerance, but this hasn't ever been tested.

Melody Day (CasualDragon)
CasualDragon
Actual Live Dragon
Name: Melody Day
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Orientation: Bisexual
Height: 152.4 cm (5 feet on the dot)
Personality: Melody is the absolute definition of 'no fear'. Maybe it's the ADHD or maybe it's from living the majority of her life in Gotham City. She's not one to back down from anything and if challenged by anyone she, most likely, will go through with it. She's stubborn, and when she has an idea set in her head she likes to follow through with it... although she can sometimes be convinced with a snack to let something go. On that note, she can be bribed rather easy to do something that she may not necessarily want to do, or if the bribe is big enough in her eyes, she'll not go through with something she wanted to do. Her ADHD occasionally leads to quick changes in conversation and short attention span.
People can sometimes find her to be a bit much between the almost non-stop chatter, the constant fidgeting, and her willingness to do something dumb for the sole reason that she can. She loves being in front of people and has a love for the dramatics. A major flaw is that she can't read other people very well. Unless someone outright states that they're mad with her she won't be able to tell. She hates debating because she can never tell when a debate has become a fight, or if it hasn't become a fight but she thinks it has. A short attention span means that others may have to repeat things a few times before she gets it. She has no issues showing affection to her friends, but also can be quick to playfully tease them. Though she may not always see the line between playful and potentially hurting someone's feelings. She appreciates honesty though and likes when people tell her that she's gone too far. She is quite boyish. She'll wear her uniforms rumpled, opt for pants over a skirt or dress any day, and has never been very interested in stereotypically girly things.
Biography: Born and raised in Gotham City, Melody considers herself a true Gothamite. Bad experiences and all. Melody, from birth, has had incredibly horrible luck. Living in Gotham has led to her being kidnapped, held hostage, stabbed, shot at and many bruises and broken bones from falling from too high of places, or even once from sticking her left foot in her right pant leg while going down some stairs and falling. She fractured her leg at that time. Her penchant for bad luck has never deterred her from loving the city she was raised in or from doing things that may lead to further injury. She's an only child but her parents never overly spoiled her.
Her parents have tried on many occasions to dissuade her from the lifestyle of thrill-seeking but no amount of bartering, bribing, or punishment could strip her away from that. Eventually, her loving parents stopped trying to dissuade her from that path and enrolled her into snowboarding and downhill skiing classes. Developing a love of thrilling situations her parents furthered their daughter's unique interests by... enroling her in Gotham Academy. They hoped she would be able to develop her people skills. Melody wasn't happy at first starting at the new school. It had a whole bunch of rich kids and she didn't feel like she fit in. But she soon did and found that the drama classes at the school were quite enticing. She doesn't have a whole ton of friends. She can never tell when she's getting too hyper over something so people tend to stay away to not have to deal with it.
Motivations for Joining the Detective Club: Action, adventure, life-threatening situations, making friends. How could she not be enticed by the Detective Club!
Skills:
- Very few fears. Her parents have no idea where this trait came from, but she doesn't seem to be afraid of a lot of things. Send her into the dark with no light, put her somewhere up high with no safety, she'll pick up snakes and spiders and barely bat an eye. In situations that scare most people, she gets a shot of adrenaline and leaps into action.
- Drama nerd. She can act pretty well and, though she doesn't like to use this a lot, can be quite good at telling lies.
- Extreme sports fan. Melody knows how to snowboard and downhill ski. She hopes to learn more cool skills like martial arts, skateboarding, and surfing in the future.
- Can patch people up. She has some first aid knowledge and can do some first aid stuff ranging from cleaning wounds, sewing stitches, resetting dislocated bones (though she would probably suggest a hospital before she took it upon herself to do this) and a few other things. She's not scared of blood so she doesn't mind.
Flaws:
- Lack of social graces. She cannot read people. She just assumes everyone is happy and fine until really expressed otherwise.
- Lack of focus. She finds it hard to focus on things for long periods of time. This leads to her being easily distracted.
- Not the most studious. Her inabilities to focus lead to her having troubles in the classroom. She struggles to sit still and listen for the whole class. In turn, she has a hard time studying. She doesn't have the best grades because of this, but she does try.

Mike Casiban (Archon)
Archon
Friendly Neighborhood Gem-Collector
Name: Mike Casiban
Appearance:
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Height: 6'0
Personality: A stalwart purveyor of normality, Mike is something of a misfit among the Gotham Academy enthusiasts, his lack of motivation and respect for the rampant vigilantism in Gotham pulling him into altercations on more than one occasion. As such, he finds more solace in isolating himself from those he has a distaste for, a highly analytical and cautious teen who'd rather avoid those who breed problems than facing them . Something of a mix between an introvert and an extrovert, or merely someone who is undecided on who they really are, Mike's attitude can vary between soft-spoken mute and charismatic conquistador, glaring comparisons of this in effect are reflected on his life within the Academy and his life away. In the academy, he is identifiable as withdrawn, hard-working, quiet and diplomatic. Though his more alive side often radiates a unique warmth and spirit, he's kind and, oddly, a horrific fan of puns and attempted humour, he's only ever in such a comfort zone when in an out-of-class environment or among true friends. Unfortunately, a much hidden part of his withdrawal from his peers is Mike's inability to excel in grades, his heart and mind are there, yet no amount of studying and research seems to be able to pull him up from barely scraping average, as a result he is often insecure about intelligence and refrains from speaking his mind of potential ideas or solutions.
Biography: Not many students can boast of a long criminal ancestry, a pit of debauchery so deep that Casiban blood runs cold with greed; an inescapable curse, shattered by the rampant vigilantism so prominent in Gotham. Michael Casiban was born to the mob boss Jason Casiban, a lieutenant of the Penguin who ran a protection racket on the poorer side of Gotham. Too young to know any different, all the young Michael knew was that his family were extremely wealthy and the Police - who schools taught were friends - were the enemy and wanted to hurt them. Though only a young child, Mike would never grow to question his own moral boundaries, on his 9th Birthday, the mob boss was en route home after a shakedown, presents and all, when he was ambushed by the Caped Crusader. The Bat's famous reputation as a merciful hero who refuses to kill proved to be true, the injuries Jason sustained in fighting back resulted in a spine shattered in three places, leaving him permanently paralyzed. He OD'd a few weeks later, and a few weeks later than that, so did Mike's mother; now unable to cope with the loss of the man she loved and their livelihood.
Mike was formally adopted by his no less wealthy aunt, though to her credit her business was more on the straight and narrow. He grew up comfortably and in a better life than he might otherwise have had, and his aunt didn't sugercoat the true extent of his families ties to crime, it helped Mike come to terms with the past, but it did little to quench his hatred of vigilantism. His aunt's own influence helped spur that on, she always understood they were a criminal family but saw Batman as the cause of her sister's death, and his methods to be brutal and self-righteous, often labeling him a criminal in his own right. Mike agreed.
Though he was a calm person at heart, Mike carried a lot of anger into his later years, and found his energy best expended in the gym or free-running across rooftops, maybe it was the risk, or adrenaline, but it made him feel far more alive than any kind of combat training. As one of the most hands-on schools in Gotham, it was only fitting that Mike go to Gotham Academy which focused far more on heroism. It wasn't an endorsement of vigilantism - or so they day - but Mike's aunt felt it was the best way forward for him, given both his past and his state of mind. So far, Mike has struggled with the lessons despite much studying, and remained distant from other students.
Motivations for Joining the Detective Club: More of a spur-of-the-moment decision with studying and academic advancements at heart. Oh, you poor poor boy.
Skills:
+Athletic - Whilst not excessively sporty, a combination of regular gym-going and freerunning help Mike to be in great shape so he can excel in most physical tasks. This is a very vital skill when it comes to battling that excessively tight jar of pickles. Or if chasing someone across rooftops. But why would you be doing that?
+Great Singer - No one can know.
+Scrappily diplomatic - A 2-for-1 bargain bucket deal, Mike is always the kind of guy to talk first and attempt to resolve things peacefully, but he's quite attuned to a fight and despite a lack of formal training, he has a warrior's spirit.
Flaws:
-Intelligence - Try as he might, Mike simply doesn't have the same smarts as most of the academy's regulars. Endless days of studying coupled with rigorous mental training would be lucky to scrape a pass. Had he been any less studious, he'd have failed long ago.
-Lonesome - Whilst not meant in the social sense, no amount of external loyalty can stop Mike from having his own cautious ideology reign supreme. He wouldn't be above going it alone if necessary, and he is perfectly able to put his foot down and refuse to go along with others wishes should they heavily conflict with his own.
-Controversial - It's one thing to dislike villains, everyone hates bad guys, they suck. Mike, however, holds a similar disdain for vigilantism, holding no respect or admiration for the Bat-Family, and all the trouble such a passionate opinion entails in Gotham Academy.

Liam Vance (AnnoDomini)
D3lmoniko
Warden of the West
Liam Vance
Gender: MaleAge (14-18): 15 (Junior)
Height: 5'8
Appearance: A red headed male with a slight athletic body, freckles for days, and always with a smirk on his face.
Personality:
The smile he often has on his face is mostly to throw people off when it comes to his life. His jokes hide his insecurities, as Liam believes that people laughing with him is better than at him. At times, he might not seem like he likes his friends, but he cares deeply for them. Hit or miss, a joke is mostly what comes out of that smirking mouth. In tense situations, Liam can be heard stuttering and looking at his feet, as if he's trying to affirm that he's still on Earth, and not drifting in space.
When it comes to studying, well, someone knows he's trying. Except his fascination with Chemistry, Geometry and an odd affinity when it comes to archery (some might say he's a natural). An ace at sports, mildly good at Chemistry and Geometry, Liam struggles in anything that is not those subjects. English became boring when it wasn't about adventures or legends, Geography is meaningless unless you plan to travel there and Physics is just plain weird. But Liam still struggles, as he knows he doesn't want end up someplace where he dreads.
Bio :
Liam never knew his father. The only picture he has of him, is one he snapped when he was 8. His mother went out at night and met with a man dressed in a black jacket and a blue cap, but the red hair could clearly be seen sticking out. His mom seemed angry, and, as she turned to leave, the stranger grabbed her arm and said something, to which a swift punch was delivered to the man's jaw. He stood there, not moving, staring at the ground, while Liam's mother (Emilia, Amy for her friends) yelled at the man. "Don't get close to him!". As she went inside the complex, Liam and the man locked eyes, but only for a brief moment, before the red haired stranger tilted his cap down, and walked away.
Over the years, Liam started to act out, as it was his own way to escape what was happening at home. His mother, a hard working mother, didn't work the most reputable or proud jobs. But she did it for her only son, to give him a future. From a young age, he was inclined to sports, and of course, cutting class to hang out with the "cool kids". One day, a pawn shop was being dismantled. Of course, Liam was the first to go and dig through the trash that were left at the scene. The other kids went looking for different things, be it an old cane, some very old book, but Liam found something that made him stand in place and gasp. It was a bow. Not a very good one, it looked worn out, and there were notches on it, but Liam loved it. Picking it up, and a twig, he started to tense the bow, and, releasing it, he felt a very satisfying sensation.
Of course, he rushed home, bow in hand. At that moment, his mother was having some of her friends by. She was in the kitchen at the moment, so she had no idea what was happening. Her friends were laughing, looking at Liam trying to imitate some poses that he had seen archers take. The next moment, he felt his left cheek burning, a palm firmly outlined on it. The last thing he heard before that was one of her smoking friends cackling "Boy, you are your daddy's son!".
Then came the screaming, the yelling, and the berating. Words of "You want to end up like that bum?" and "I don't want to lose you too!", all sending mixed signals to Liam. He still kept his bow, it was his way of sticking out to his mom, who he saw as someone who drove his dad away. His mother slowly started to delve into smoking and drinking, leaving Liam sometimes alone to his own devices. But, her ideals still stood the same. She made savings, and finally, enrolled Liam in the Gotham Academy. Although he got in by a small margin into the most prestigious academy, he was rather angry. He would lose the friends he had, the ones that encouraged him to do some of the most stupid things. For him, the silver lining was that at least he was going to get away from his mom's grip.
Reason for Joining the Detective Club:
Trying to fill his time, and mostly because of fellow member Cassidy dragging him.

- Sneaking out

Dislikes:
- Studying anything else
- Having to obey rules
- Dress code
Skills:
- Afinity for Archery
- Adept gymnast
- Advanced level geometry
- Adept level chemistry
Flaws:
- Brash
- Quick to anger
