Character General Info
Name: Timothy Drake
Gender: Male
Birth Date: July 20
Age: 19
Age Looks: 19
Hair: black
Eyes: blue
Appearance:
Tim's Robin outfit is a modified version of the Dick Grayson's old outfit. Upgraded with the bullet prof material that the Bat Suit is made of. While it can stop a small fire arms and most blades. He still has to be careful with the exposed skin areas as most bad guys aim for his arms and head. He currently wears a hood and small cape to make it easier to blend in with shadows that also offeres him glider capabilities.
Street wear: Tim likes to wear dark clothes that resemble his Robin outfit. With Black gym shoes, dark jeans, a red shirt , his leather jacket and sun glasses.
Scars: Tim has some battle scars most from his time with the group named the Titans. Most of those are from training and times when their team work was lacking in some areas. They range from his head to his arms and one on his back.
Personality:
Tim loves helping people and because of that he often leaps into action head first. Tim grew up with laptops and LAN networks. As a result, he is a much more cerebral, cautious Robin than his predecessors. He takes after Bruce in this way much more than Dick or Jason - Tim is a natural planner, almost to the point of being a manipulator, and definitely has no qualms about manipulating criminals to set up a successful sting with as little violence as possible, unless his friends are in danger then he tends to act more like Jason and dick then Bruce.
As Robin, Tim is a crime-solver by nature, as opposed to Dick and Jason who are both crime-busters, far more rash and willing to crack skulls than Tim is.Nevertheless, Tim is not himself a pessimist, and unlike Bruce his soul is not consumed by the need for vengeance.
He at one time wanted to be just like Batman until one day when he got that chance and couldn't bring himself to do what Bruce was willing to every night live life in the shadows and never truly having any kind of connection with others due to this he broke one of the rules that was set for him.
After a mission that almost cost him some of his fellow titans he removed his mask and told them his identity, as an act of trust and loyalty.
Family:
Bat Family( Batman, Night Wing, Bat Girl, Alfred Cat Woman, Huntress, Bat Woman, Black Canary,)
Titans:( Aqua lad, Zatana, Beast Boy, Raven, Speedy, Kid Flash ect)
Background:
Tim Drake was little more than a toddler when he attended the circus with his parents. In order to ease his wife's concerns that the circus might frighten Tim, Jack Drake asked to take a picture with the Flying Graysons, who were the starring act. It was here that Tim first met Dick Grayson, who offered Tim special attention, and even promised to dedicate his performance to the toddler. Soon after, Tim and his family bore witness to the murder of Dick's parents John and Mary, alongside Bruce Wayne. As his parents rushed him out of the circus tent, Tim managed to catch sight of the mysterious Batman consoling Dick. Feeling sorry for Dick, Jack and Janet sent him a copy of the photo they had taken prior to the murder.
A few years later at the age of nine, Tim saw footage of Batman and Robin apprehending the Penguin. Robin performed a quadruple somersault, a rare maneuver that only Dick Grayson and a few others could perform. After learning Grayson was the ward of Bruce Wayne, he came to the conclusion that Grayson was Robin and that of course Wayne was Batman. Tim continued to follow the adventures of the Dynamic Duo, as well as Grayson's becoming Nightwing and Jason Todd succeeding him as Robin. After Jason's death, Timothy began to take notice of a drastic and almost psychotic change in Batman's behavior, in which he became convinced that Batman needed a Robin to maintain his sanity.
When Nightwing left the Titans for a short time in order to find himself, Tim followed him and after helping Dick solve a mystery at Haley's Circus, was able to convince Dick that Batman needed help. However, where Dick intended to help Batman as Nightwing, Tim remained convinced that Batman needed Robin more. Dick ignored these pleads and raced off to help his mentor, only for both Dick and Bruce to be captured by Two-Face.
Realizing that his idols were in danger, Tim donned the costume of Robin, at only thirteen years old and with the help of Alfred Pennyworth, was able to rescue them. Batman, although extremely reluctant, accepted Tim as the new Robin on a trial basis after being convinced by the boy, as well as Dick and Alfred. He was trained over several months, first by Alfred, then Batman, and finally Nightwing before ever being allowed to wear the costume again or go into the field.
Unfortunately, just prior to completing his training, the ruthless Obeah Man later captured Tim's parents during a trip to the Caribbean. The Obeah man intended to sacrifice them, but Batman arrived to their rescue. Unfortunately, Janet and Jack both drank from water laced with poison, and Janet died, while Jack was left in a coma with paralysis. Batman began to reconsider Tim for the role of Robin, due to his fear that Tim was now motivated by anger, just as Jason had been. Tim, however, became more driven by his desire to do what was right, rather than petty revenge. After later saving Batman and Vicki Vale and defeating the Scarecrow, Bruce at last bestowed upon Tim the mantle of Robin, as well as a new costume.
Part of Tim's training Bruce sent him to a group of young heroes called the Titans. His training under Batman quickly placed him in a leader role much like it had with the previous Robin. Over time he grew into a true hero and works mainly on his own as Robin but still responds to every Bat Signal and Titans call he can.

Sample RP:
On a dock on Gotham Harbor a truck pulls up while a small group of men unload the cargo from the truck and start moving them on to a boat. From above a shadowy figure watches every move they make. The figure sits as still as possible and keeps their eyes on the group of men. As the clouds part and the moon light shines down and Illuminates the dock .
The crates all have Biohazard logos so he has to move fast. he quietly leaps from one roof top to another and slowly moves a hand behind his back.
As one of the men reaches the plank of the boat a noise can be heard through the air as a red and black object snaps onto the wood. the man looks down as hears a beeping noise coming from it, when the beeping stops the object explodes and sends the man flying back.
The rest of the group stops and looks around seeing the figure now standing on the roof of the truck.
"It's Batman!" one of them yells as the figure walks out of the shadows and says. " Do I look like a bat to you? Red just screams bat right?" The figure leaps off does a flip in midair and lands between the men and the remains of the plank.
"Oh it's just..." One of the men started before Robin rushes him and lands a round house kick to the head before leaping again and landing on two others.
"Really guys you need a better job getting beat up can't be worth the money your getting" He said as he stood up reached behind him once more and pulled out a small rod. He pressed a button on it and it opened into a full Bo Staff.
"Now it's just you two and me what will you do?" He said with his eyes narrowing. The two men look at each other and run off. " Well that's no fun" Robin said as he leaned back and tossed his staff at their legs tripping them.
As the police arrived Robin had just finished tying up the final man he noticed a reflection in the water. He looked up to see the bat Signal in the sky.
Robin let out a sigh and said "Is this night ever going to end?" He Stood up held his grappling hook and launched himself into the air landing on a near by roof when his com-link went off.
"Tim? Tim you there?" the soft voice said in his ear. " I see it barb what is it Two face, Freeze, Our pal Joker" he said as he jumped, flipped and Grappled his way across the city. " No Tim. It's Bruce" Barbra said. Robin stopped on top of the Court house. " What kind of trouble is he in now? Just tell me where he is and I'll be there" He said with a small chuckle.
"No..Tim....he's gone"
