( THE BASICS ) Name: Joker Canon: DC Comics (Preboot) Character's (approximate) age: 43 Character's powers: 1) Resistance to toxins and mind control, 2) Accelerated healing, and 3) Human jukebox (he can play music around him wherever he goes). All of these are temporarily blocked as part of his probation, but will be back in effect in March. Is your character registered/will they be?: Nope, he’s legally a Criminal and intends to stay that way. Where does your character live?: Officially, he and Harley still live in De Chima 004. In practice, he’s living (currently without her) in their hideout instead. He often stays the night in his office at the Laugh Factory, too. Are you looking for roommates?: If you’re a villain and want to come live in the hideout, yes! What is your character's job?: He’s a talent scout for the Laugh Factory comedy club in De Chima. He’s also involved in a variety of less legal business endeavors (though these are on hold until he’s done with probation).
( THE DETAILS ) RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Skills: Chemistry, toxins, and explosives; networking and leadership; lying/trickery/manipulation; sleight-of-hand; disguises; crime and schemes of all varieties; fighting dirty; humor; optimism; persistence; high pain tolerance; creative problem solving; annoying the everliving bejeesus out of people. He can also be quite charming when he wants to be. Likes: Comedy, old movies, excitement/adrenaline/surprises, pain, games, crowds, attention, women, and the adoration and terror of the masses. Dislikes: Talking about his feelings, Batman, being ignored, being bored. Needs: 1) Temporary arm candy, 2) More villain buddies and/or crew members, 3) Black-market business partners, 4) People who can help him get revenge on Kirk (lawyers, assassins, etc.), 5) People involved with the Laugh Factory (stand-up acts, bouncers, bartenders, whatever)
What are your character's plans?: He has a bunch, although a lot of them won’t fully kick into action until he’s out of probation next month. His to-do list includes: 1) Get rid of the emotions that have been starting to creep into him lately (and which were exacerbated by the events of CnC) and show this world that he’s as cold-blooded as ever. 2) Help Barbara find a way to return to the world of CnC2020 so he can rescue his daughter, Lucy. (But isn't this at odds with #1, you ask? Why yes, yes it is.) 3) Get revenge on Kirk Langstrom for murdering him at the January swear-in. 4) Find a new woman (or multiple women) to show the media how little Harley means to him and how very over her he is. (Spoiler alert: he’s not over her at all.) 5) Build his criminal network and black-market dealings. 6) Start putting together a new team of supervillains, with himself as its ringleader.
Does your character have a secret identity?: No. Well, he has a secret past (currently known only to Barbara Gordon), but that’s not exactly the same thing, so. Where can your character commonly be found? The easiest place to find him is at the Laugh Factory, but he pops up all over De Chima. His criminal status makes using Porters difficult, so he rarely appears in other cities. Is your character open for pairings?: No, although he may try to tell your character otherwise. Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Yes to both. Is your character interested in teams?: Yes! Mostly interested in villain teams atm, but he’d also consider other teams if they were connected with someone he trusts (like Barbara). What kind of plots are you after?: Right now, I’m mostly looking for 1) crime/villain plots (including building villain friendships/networks and organizing jobs/deals), 2) petty interpersonal drama, and 3) day-to-day activities in the comedy club. If your character is or would like to be a part of the criminal scene, or if your character could use a job (legal at the club, or illegal on the side), let’s talk.
