Character Personality: This section should give us a solid view of who your character is and what they're like. As with the setting, this section may be as long or as short as you want to make it.

Character Powers & Skills: List your character's powers and skill sets in this section and please make the distinction clear (ie. which are powers and which are skill sets). The CDC will have the powers listed here on file so this section MUST be as complete as possible. Your character WILL NOT be allowed to have a power that isn't listed here.

CHARACTER SAMPLES.
First Person POV: Link us to a voicetest post or thread! Make sure that you're linking threads that abide by our AC requirements. If you're worried your threads are too short, then you'll likely get asked to do a video log revision - so linking more threads is always the safer bet.

Third Person POV: "Sorry, Bats! Made a new friend today. But don't get too jealous! I'll be back before you know it! Hugs and kisses, J"

Those words had been scrawled out onto a sticky note in thick green ink. The note itself? Attached to what looked like another audiotape that had been left lovingly atop the Joker's throne. Save the tape, the mountain of bones, and the twin Titans chained up on opposite corners of the room, the makeshift throne room the Joker had put together in the Visitor Center was practically empty. There was no further sign of the Joker; he seemed to have vanished without a trace.

Should any of his henchmen, hostages, or even ol' Batman himself manage to make his way in, perhaps they might decide to play that tape. Perhaps that tape might yield further insight as to the Joker's whereabouts. What they'll hear is the tail end of a muffled conversation between the Joker and an unknown voice. A voice that not the Dark Knight's supercomputer will be able to recognize.

"So? What do you say?" asked the voice.

"Hmmm. Tempting, but..." came a murmur from the Joker, obviously drawing out his answer just to toy with the stranger. "...no dice. I'm a very busy man, you know. I've already made special arrangements for this evening's festivities and I'd just hate to see them fall through. You understand, don't you?"

"Joker - "

"Nope!" crowed the clown in a sing-songy voice, footsteps echoing as he danced around the room. "Uh-uh, nopenopenope, not listening, can't hear you! I'm not going any-where!"

"Yes, you are."

A beat. A rustling of fabric as the Joker straightened his lapels and cleared his throat, speaking to the stranger as he would to a very small child. Or to Harley. Same difference, really.

"I'm sorry, friend. Perhaps you must have misheard me? Let's try this again, shall we? And this time, I'll use even smaller words. No. I'm. Not!"

"Yes," the stranger repeated, clearly unfazed. "You. Are."

"I'm not!"

"You are."

"I'm not!"

This childish exchange continued for another moment more, the strange new voice maintaining its calm in the face of the Joker's lunacy, even as it subtly changed tack and said, "You're not."

"I - "

Then the Joker stopped. Seemed to realize exactly what sort of trick the stranger had just pulled. You could almost perfectly visualize that infamous smile of his creeping back onto his face as he uttered, with a hoarse little cackle, "I am."

"No, you're not."

"Yes, I am!"

"No, you're not!"

"Look here, buddy," sneered the Joker, "I like your style, so I've changed my mind. I'm going with you whether you like it or not. So go ahead! Beam me up! Or whatever the hell it is you're going to do. Or - wait! Better yet! Let's shake on it, hmm? Whaddaya say? Put 'er there!"

From there, it's difficult to determine what exactly happened next. The Joker's raucous laughter was unmistakable, as was the sound of two hands slapping together. Then there was an odd sort of noise, almost like the electrical discharge of the Joker's joy buzzer but not quite the same. Then came a noise that was even more unsettling.

The stranger had started to laugh, too.
