[OOC] Gotham City: Shadow of the Bat

[ProPro]

@Jinny Speaking of which, we'll need to work out where Dick finds her at. Because he will find her. ;D

[Barrett]

@LePouvantail
Do you want to do a collab for Eddie and Crane's meeting?

[Jinny]

@ProPro
Well I mean Talia isn't making a grand entrance with a ton of fanfare but she also isn't exactly hiding. It's also my understanding that Talia and Dick will be dealing with a small legion of Talons and that this attack will be aimed at the League, so the obvious location would be at the Nykawa Center. How Dick goes about getting to Talia is something we could discuss further in PMs if you want to message me with your ideas.

[Ruby]

All caught up. Wonderful posts, people.

Expect Helena a little later. She'll be busy.

[Ruby]

Will be needing a coGM, as it turns out, so if you're interested please send me a PM to let me know.

@Jinny

I'll be writing the wave of Talons for that scene. I think Jinny and I agreed there were anywhere from 40 to 50 of the League at Nykawa; I know Bruce could sneak in and get to Talia. I'm fairly certain Dick could sneak in, could he get to Talia totally undetected? I'm a little torn on that, but lean towards he could.

At least the first time.

And to the issue of Talia's location, Alfred's no doubt already put that bit of intel into the system.

@ProPro
but she also isn't exactly hiding.

@Jinny

Cause, yeah, Talia's not exactly hiding from the Batfamily.

@Roosan

You mean write a post together? I'm game for it. I'll be home in about 3 hours if you have time today.

[Barrett]

@LePouvantail
That's fairly late for my timezone and I have some early stuff I have to do tomorrow. But there's no rush for this, we've both posted recently so we can afford to wait a few days. Do you get home earlier tomorrow or another day?

[ProPro]

@Roosanit would appear that her break is over and she's back to work, so I'll answer in her stead. Tomorrow she works later, but Wednesday she's off.

Titanpads can be helpful for that, or G-Docs, or even just exchanging PMs now that PMs can be managed.

@Roosan

Quick check-in. If you're okay with it, I can create a Google Doc and PM you the link. I always have docs on my phonce since I use it constantly.

[Barrett]

@LePouvantail
Sure. I can drop some Riddler preparation and such in to set up the meeting.

Name: Donovan Booth
Age: 36
Alias: "First-Degree" Donny
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 160 pounds



Appearance: A slight man with no eyebrows, a baby-face, emerald eyes, and greasy ginger hair, Donny is without a doubt an unassuming individual. He almost always wears black pants and dress shoes with suspenders and black gloves, though commonly hides his equipment and features beneath a trenchcoat and hat. He always wears a tie, though the color and design of it frequently changes. He speaks with a nasally Downeast accent, one that most people find pervy sounding.



Personality: Donny is what would be called an ubermensch. He follows his own code and does as he wants, believing only in his own will and the in the cold steel of his .44 Magnum. He follows orders because he likes having something to do, and what he likes to do is murder.
He is unbelievably crafty, and as mean as an Arizona rattler. He frequently feigns emotion and warmth to stay on just the right side of socially passable by modern standards, but he has no qualms about being a public nuisance. He is quite skilled at being annoying, and uses it as a tool to pick fights. He enjoys smoking, but only does so before and after a kill.



Skills/Abilities: Donny looks like a geeky dad, the kind of embarrassing adult that could be found doing jumping jacks in neon dolphin shorts down at the local YMCA. This is a strength. Hardly anyone ever suspects just how obscenely dangerous he really is. His physicality is comparable to that of a highly trained marine, as he consistently trains to stay in peak condition. He has over seventeen years of experience in urban combat as an elite mafia goon, with at least 172 confirmed kills. Though he is a capable hand-to-hand fighter, he by far prefers mid-range firefights. He is a true "dead eye" with his selected firearms, and can hit a fly at ninety-one meters with his .44 Magnum, the weapon he favors above all others. Such is his skill with the gun that he can fire off all six shots in less than a second by fanning the hammer, whilst still maintaining near-perfect accuracy. For reference as to the Magnum's power, the slugs can rip through armor like rice paper and put a four inch hole through a steel cooking pan at three hundred feet.

Weapons and Equipment-

-Raging Bull .44 Magnum revolver with a Mernickle quick draw holster and seven moon clips (48 shots total) on his belt on the right side.

-Tommy Gun with two spare 100-round drums (300 shots total) slung over his back.

-Five pull-pin fragmentation grenades with optional tripwires on his belt.

-Six inch switchblade in his pocket. It has a ring clip at the hilt base.

-Claw hammer holstered at his belt.

-Customized retractable high-density golf club made just for braining folks holstered at his belt. It has a ring clip at the hilt base.

-Fifteen foot razor sharp microfilament garrote wire reel concealed within a wristwatch that can be withdrawn via clip ring. It is almost invisible to the naked eye, sharp enough to cut through bone with some effort, and can withstand up to 2,100 pounds of tension without breaking.

-Spring loaded five-inch knives within the heels and toes of his shoes that will jut out when a switch on the instep is triggered.

-Pair of quarter-pound S.A.P black combat gloves weighted with lead. They are fashioned from a high density polymer that can resist being cut by the garrote wire.

-A heavy duty bullet proof vest that can stop even the largest of slugs.

-Can of FOX military grade pepper spray holstered at his belt.

-Portable six inch shaving mirror on his belt.

-Satchel holding four adhesive bombs, which can be remotely detonated via digital watch or set with a timer. Each bomb contains enough TNT to scrap a minivan.










Weaknesses: Donny is, in the end, only human. As dangerous as a human can get, surely, but still susceptible to the mortal fallacy. He has to sleep, he has to eat, and he can't survive anything that would kill a man. A bullet through the back of the head, a falling steel beam, even getting ganked in a corner by a dozen thugs. With patience and tact, any man may be brought down from his high horse. That, and the natural faults of preferring a revolver over a handgun. Donny can't quickfire if one of his hands is busy or incapacitated, and if he does use up his ammunition, his gun takes longer to reload than most automatics.



History: Donny had a typical psychopathic childhood. He was born in Bangor, Maine, his father a U.S Marine, his mother a sickly stay at home wife, and his uncle a bastard rapist. He was often unsupervised, and frequently engaged in less than moral activities. He bullied other children, killed animals, and stole from the local supermarket on a regular basis. As soon as he got his driver's license, he stole his parent's van hit the road, moving to Gotham and with nary a penny in his pockets after using up the rest for gas.
There he found quick work as a mafia bookie, his audacity and ruthlessness impressing the bosses. He began as a goon and never switched professions. He was good at it. Whenever he wasn't booking, he was killing. Any hit that was requested of him, he accepted and completed. By the time he was in his mid-twenties, he was locally known as "First-Degree" Donny, a universal killer and as far as the GPD were concerned, a veritable one-man army.

There was another reason for his infamy, however. He had a hobby. In his spare time Donny wandered the streets after dark, a claw hammer hidden inside his overcoat. He killed lone women beneath city overpasses and in motel alleyways. Being a part-time serial killer in addition to a mafia bookie naturally solidified his reputation as a high profile criminal, and he is currently on the FBI's Most Wanted list with a reward of two-million dollars on his head.

We'll need to figure out who, exactly, he's been working for but that won't be too difficult.

Approved.

Also, heeeeeythat'sLosSantos. <3

@Ruby

Just a matter of him getting hired. Then comes the ragdoll physics.

[Blue Demon]

Sorry I haven't responded. I caught a wicked cold and all I've been doing is sleeping. (Today is the first day I've felt semi-normal. But being vertical does make everything spin still) But I have tomorrow off and I'm really hoping that I'll get to replies then.

[Rin]

@Doc DoctorMight be a problem with your post, since Damian showed up and is currently directly confronting Kuroko. ^^;
