Physical Profile:

• Bruce is obviously a very sturdy man with a a slim figure. He possesses large muscles, though not bulky or obnoxious looking, with light definition in the arms, legs and torso.
  
• Bruce's skin tone is that of strong Italian decent. With an olive complexion and a slight tan, Bruce is obviously no stranger to sunlight. His skin is relatively clear, save for a few fading freckles his budding relationship with daytime and battle wounds that are often covered by his clothing.
  
• With a strong square jawline, and a cheeky smile, Bruce's face is a quite a masculine one.
  
• Though his hair is a bit longer than he would like, it is in no way scruffy or dirty. He does not wear it down, because it would fall into his face and obstruct his vision, so he prefers it slicked back and styled, to complete his business look.
  
• Bruce has the fashion sense that is only allowed by one of a high class lifestyle. He enjoys three piece suits that cost more than the average citizen's rent, and imported Italian leather shoes, and is usually seen (or rather, known) in nothing else.
  
• The bat suit is a vital part of Bruce Wayne's appearance. With day-to-day technological advances, the bat suit is become more like a piece of modern-day armor rather than a suit. The bat suit covers from head to toe, save for the jaw. The armor's torso is sculpted to resemble the male chest, imprinted with the outline of a bat across the pecs and is complete with a utility belt and all.
  

Personality:

If one thing could be said about Bruce Wayne, it would be that he is the most determined man you will ever meet. As goal-oriented as they come, if Bruce sets his mind to something, he is an unstoppable force and will accomplish each and every one of his tasks. As a result of his determination Bruce is also a very intelligent individual who is quick to learn and also quick to make decisions, and learn from his mistakes. When a mistake is made, he is also quick to acknowledge his fault in the matter, sometimes even when he is not to blame. This can be considered his tragic flaw, due to the overwhelming guilt he felt when he was unable to stop the deaths of his parents at the age of twelve, at the hands of a small time gangster by the name of Joe Chill. In order to rid himself of this guilt, Bruce created the batman, so that perhaps he could spare another person of this loss, and perhaps redeem himself.

In order to keep suspicions of the real identity of batman off of himself, in the public eye Bruce acts very different than what he is usually. To those who are not close to him, Bruce is often considered a dim-witted, egotistical and chauvinistic playboy who spends the majority of his time and money showing himself a good time. He even goes so far as to publicly degrade the idea of batman, all in hopes that no one will get suspicious and so far his attempts seem to be working.

Background and History:

Bruce Wayne led a life of little consequence or abnormality before the age of twelve. He was born to a wealthy upper class couple, the only child of Thomas and Martha Wayne. Before the age of twelve, he had attended a private school on the outskirts of Gotham, meant for only children of the most prestigious business men and stars of the city. He had never witnessed anything remotely unpleasant, and life was good for the only heir to the Wayne fortune.

On his twelfth birthday, however, his ordinary life would come to a swift and sudden end. It was on this day that his parents had taken him to the movies and were killed before his eyes at the hands of a small time mugger by the name of Joe Chill. This event changed Bruce Wayne forever, and eventually lead to his becoming Batman.

After this event, Bruce spend the rest of his youth in the care of his butler and now guardian Alfred Pennyworth, who remains one of his closest friends. However, any thoughts that Bruce would be an easy child to raise would be completely false. Bruce maintained a repressed rage that showed it's self at random times, resulting in two arrests before the age of eighteen.

However, with Alfred's faithful guidance, Bruce learned quickly to straighten himself out and put his anger to good use. He used his drive to take over as the head of his father's company and at twenty-three, in the face of a criminal reign over the city he had grown to love, create the image of the batman.

Any Special Abilities?
In all reality, Bruce is an ordinary man. He possesses no attributes that any other man could not posses. That is, if the man had Bruce's determination and wallet size. With a combination of ninja training, and specialized and custom equipment, Batman creates an image of a superhuman, but in all reality he is simply a normal man.

Pets:
Eh...Bruce isn't really a "pet" person...

Name of Play By:
Christian Bale

Example Role Play:

When Bruce Wayne had been listening to the Police radio, he had only been half listening as he enjoyed the day to day activities of a seemingly normal life. Naturally, he thought he had been mistaken; after all, the voice was panicked and had uttered the word "Joker" through several hyperventilating breaths. He had almost laughed even. There was no way in hell the Joker could have escaped, he had made sure of it himself. It was obviously some misguided teenager prank calling the police department, a good waste of time for the poor operator who had accepted the call, and a good laugh for the kid who obviously had nothing better to do. It was almost enough for Bruce to turn the blasted thing off, he had even reached for the power switch when something stopped him dead in his tracks; through the phone, behind the cries and blubbers of whoever had placed the call was that laugh. It was psychotic, echoing and it could only mean one thing.

The world felt as if it had slowed down as he listened to the woman on the other side of the phone screaming, a blood curdling scream that mingled in his ears with not one laugh but two. Bruce felt the way one could only describe as an emotion that meant something was very, very wrong. Lives were at stake here, it was quite obvious, and the responsibility of his past settled down quickly in it's old place on his shoulders.

"Sir?" the thick British accent brought him back to the current predicament, coughing to overcome the shock.

"Alfred, I need to step out for a moment." was the response that Bruce spoke, the stoic and serious nature of batman returning quickly, as was his nature.Mere moments later, with adrenalin pumping through his veins, Bruce found himself putting on the suit once again, off once again to protect the city from a dangerous, murdering psychopath.
