Well, the ones who are with Batwoman know about Nyssa (cause she told them), but of course not Bane's exact intentions with any of the girls.

I've made a post where we've regrouped. Is Batman just gonna come there, or should we head for the Batcave? (If he's comfortable letting every member know it's location, of course)
Where are everybody? :)
If anyone else whishes to be on top of the GCPD while Batwoman explains, they can of course just write that they arrived before she started talking.
Batwoman used a second to acknowledged the people there.
“His name is Trogg, perhaps the most infamous and important of Bane’s lieutenants. He’s ruthless, brutal and not a fan of personal hygiene, it would seem. Luckily, he also likes to run his mouth like a drunken Youtube personality. Don’t you, Trogg?” She poked the beaten man with the tip of her boot.
Guardian’s well-placed hit seemed to have removed all will to retaliate. Now he just lied there with his hands and feet still bound by the steel cables. His grim expression made him look even more of a caveman than ever.
A dark shadow moved over Batwoman’s face as she went on. “However, what he had to say was troubling. It would seem, that whatever plans Bane has, extends beyond challenging Batman. Along side Batgirl, Bane also has Nyssa Al Ghul and the daughter of Deathstroke, Rose Wilson. I can’t say with certainty what he intends to do, but I can say what he doesn’t intend to do: As you all know, Bane's mind is his true weapon, and he has not done this with the intention of fighting 3 enemies at once. No. Instead he might use the women to trick or blackmail both the League of Assassins and Deathstroke to attack Batman. A fight I’m not sure he can win. Not in the state he’s in right now. He might seem alright, but there's something beneath the surface. Which means that in the end it will come down to us. To secure Gotham. To stop Bane.”
A part of her had hoped to read Trogg while she told her theory, as this could give her an idea of how close she had gotten to the truth. But the lieutenant’s Neanderthal face had remained expressionless.
“If you have any other theories, now is the time,” Batwoman ended on.
A few days ago…
“We did it.” Batwoman looked down where Black Mask was getting dragged into a cop car.
“You did it,” Nightwing corrected and went on, before she could protest. “Look, I was stuck in this case, until you showed up with your close quarter gun fighting and your guerilla warfare. Please don’t argue; I’m still a bit out of breath.”
“Oh, yeah? Tonight was tough on you, Mr. Wingman?”
“It was. Once the fighting starts, it’s no easy thing keeping up with you.”
This brought the tiniest of smiles to Batwoman’s lips. “Well, you taught me well.”
“Yes, and somehow, I immediately became your wingman, and not the mastermind behind this operation.” He took a good long look at her. “You know, you should smile more often.”
“You sound like my girlfriend.”
“Well, every time you hit me, you act like my girlfriend. That was another compliment by the way.”
Batwoman’s cape gracefully swayed in the wind, while she moved away from the broken window. Nightwing had done what so few others had managed: He had stayed at her side and not died. If he too had enlisted and fought along side her, then perhaps her past would have been less gruesome. Perhaps there would have been hope behind all those empty medals.
Present…
Bane had shattered all pretense in a single night. Nightwing was dead, and even when Batwoman drove 65 miles per hour with Bane’s lieutenant on the back of the bike, she couldn’t forget that fact.
Neither magic nor miracles would change what Bane had done. Even if Nightwing came back, that murderous son of a bitch had still done an unspeakable act. Gone too far.
“This is Batwoman. I hope you’re all alive and well. There has been a development, so when you’re done for tonight meet me. You’ll know where,” she said as she arrived at the GCPD. Getting 280 pounds of angry thug onto the roof was no easy task. Batwoman took a second to gather her strength before turning on the Batsignal.
“Bane told me, you and Nightwing were close,” Trogg started to tease. “You want to hear how he died? You want to hear how he begged? Not at first, of course, no. He was a real trooper, until Bane told him about our plans for the girl bat. He seemed so concerned about her. Must have been love. But it's broken now.”
“Go on, I'm sure you can provoke me better than that, big boy.” Batwoman managed to keep her voice calm. Yet inside the anger lit up like a wildfire.
“Bane will punish her. He already knows, and he will punish her because you all made such a mess of things. Did you really think you could challenge him like that without repercussions? Why on earth would he allow that?”
I'm planning to get a post up tomorrow.
Alright I believe I should make myself more clear. What I meant was I was coming into this rp with the expectation that you as GM @The Kid Lantern were going to give characters an objective to do and not leave it to the players. I'm fine with him going to hack a computer...but what does he find? I can't exactly pull any relevant plot related info out because I, as a player, don't know anything Bane has going on. Damocles could go find the nearest cell phone that's somehow still intact and try to trace calls, or something as well but once more I don't have anything to go off of. When I'm a gm I have players go to point A, or chose a location then give them something to do so they don't have to make up their own stuff. I guess I'll go have him interrogate one of the goons then.
Maybe your character could use technology to mask up the factory incidence as something else than the work of Batman and co. Then we know Bane wouldn't take his frustration out on Batgirl. Doing stuff like that would really make a hacker valuable to the team.
I for one really like your character, and like to see someone fight Bane with something else than physical combat.
Well I know Skinner mentioned being out till the 4th of July, and I thought you were taking a break from the IC as well. I just didn't wanna get super pushy LOL. I'll have a post up sometime today...
~KL~
I am out for another 2 days. However I can still read posts on my phone.
It seems the IC has stopped. No one wants to tell what happens next in their character's journey?
