Painless Resilience
-Joker does not feel pain as most people do, and he can ignore even dire wounds to a certain extent. Even when down to 2 red stones of Health, he can still fight, regenerating half his usual stones. However, he falls in a coma as anyone else if he falls to 1 red stone, and dies like anyone else if he loses his last stone.
Targeting +1
Wealth: 3
CHALLENGES
-Insanity (-5; Joker is downright crazy, and is an homicidal maniac. He does not think like any normal human does and is completely unpredictable, and that's what makes him so dangerous.)
-Deranger cruelty (-3; Killing, torturing and stabbing in the back are all fair play to him. He does not care if the victim is a man, a woman or a child, and he would kill or not kill for almost any reason one could imagine.)
-Obsession (-4; Batman, Batman, Batman. To destroy him, physically, mentally and emotionally. To destroy his life, that of his friends, and what he holds dear. To make every day of his life a living hell.)
Deadly enemies (-3; aside from the Bat Family and the forces of the law, Joker isn't the only Big Name in Gotham City, and many people would like to put the Clown Prince of Crime in an early grave.)
EQUIPMENT
Varies, but the Joker always has a panoply of knives of many kinds with him, whose weapon modifiers range from +1 to +3.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STORY: His identity is a mystery. The only telling of his origin may have been a figment of his twisted imagination. To quote the Joker, "If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!"
According to the Joker's admittedly faulty memory, he was an out of work greeting cards writer, struggling to make a career as a stand-up comedian. He and his pregnant wife were living a destitute but loving life.
In an attempt to make some fast money before the birth of their child, he made a deal with a couple of members of the Red Hood Gang to help break into a his former employer to rob the safe.
The day before the caper was to go down, the future Joker was paid a visit by the police at the bar he frequented. They informed him his wife had died from an electrical short, testing a baby bottle warmer.
Distraught and no longer motivated to commit robbery he attempted to back out, but the gangsters advised him to do so would have dire consequences.
During the robbery the future Joker was selected to wear the guise of the Red Hood, which was always a random gang member. The three burglars were confronted by a security guard and the Batman. Still wearing his disguise, he ran blindly down the catwalk, falling into the chemical slew.
Emerging down river, the water's reflection revealed his face was now bleached white and his hair mottled green. This final misery broke the man's will, transforming him into the homicidal maniac called the Joker.
