Story
After a series of failed robberies, The Joker’s operations have been shut down by Batman and he has fallen in priority among the villains that populate Gotham City, easily being able to be apprehended by the police without enough money to create his laughing gas or even obtain bullets. Seeking a way to regain his status, he has sent Harley Quinn to commit a robbery of a curio shop for a dragon statue which is rumored to be cursed, which luckily enough (for Joker) was successful.
The sole robbery of the statue, not being very valuable, has baffled the police. But as always, there is a reason behind The Joker’s madness. Making his way to Metropolis, Joker has met with Lex Luthor, and the two formed a partnership; if The Joker could defeat Superman, Luthor would fund his operations.
Using the kryptonite dragon statue, The Joker succeeded on his half of the deal, but left Superman alive against Luthor’s wishes to try and keep the Justice League from interfering with his alliance with Luthor.
Knowing that Batman will have a hard time dealing with the resources Luthor has supplied him with, Joker had planned on returning to Gotham City with his new partner-in-crime.
Taking into account that the corruption and organized crime of Gotham City has led more of its inhabitants to take the law into their own hands than in Metropolis (which is only protected by Superman and Supergirl, who are both Justice League members), Luthor has used his wealth to unite some of its more prominent villains (or with other promises if they were already wealthy).
The alliance’s next victory came early. Though they were not able to defeat Batman himself, Harley Quinn succeeded in breaking Batgirl’s leg, but she was rescued by Nightwing and Robin before any further harm could come to her.
Despite her injury, Batgirl has found a way to help. Donning the code name “Oracle” and using the Batcomputer, she acts as the information broker to the Batman family.
Meanwhile, realizing that the time to strike against the villains’ alliance, Wonder Woman has assembled a team made up of the six Justice League members she can spare (including herself) to break-up their partnership before it can expand to other rogue galleries and to rescue Superman.
The story is based on two stories from the DCAU; World’s Finest and the early version of Grudge Match. It also takes inspiration from ‘’LEGO Batman: The Video Game’’ and LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes.)
Host
- Batgirl/Oracle (AKA Barbara Gordon) – Berrybrick
- Being the adopted daughter of Police Commissioner James Gordon, Barbara Gordon grew up in a household filled with police officers and their stories. When she was older, Barbara decided that she wanted to join the Gotham City Police Department and follow in her father's footsteps, but he wouldn't allow it. One night, at a Masquerade Ball, Barbara wore a homemade female “Batman” costume as a jive against her father and ended up stopping a planned kidnapping on millionaire Bruce Wayne by Killer Moth, which began her career as Batgirl. At first, her identity was a secret to both Batman and Robin (Dick Grayson), but Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce’s butler, had discovered her secret after both were kidnapped by The Penguin. After Batman deduced her identity and reached out to her to be his partner, Robin became jealous and Batgirl replaced him as Batman’s partner for some time.
- She has recently received an injury from Harley Quinn. Batman has ordered her to stay off this case to keep her from getting hurt further. Still determined to help, Barbara has donned the codename “Oracle” and uses the bat-computer to act as the information broker to the Batman-family and Justice League members dealing with the defeat of Superman and Lex Luthor uniting the villains of Gotham.
Heroes
- When a young Bruce Wayne witnessed his socialite parents shot dead by the mugger, Joe Chill, he vowed to bring justice to the criminals infesting Gotham City. He then trained himself in detective skills, sciences, engineering, escape artistry, martial arts, and criminal psychology. But Bruce realized that those skills would not be enough to stop the superstitious and cowardly lot plaguing the streets. While he was in his study reflecting on his parents' deaths, a bat flew into the window, both startling and inspiring him at the same time. He would become the bat to strike fear in those who preyed upon the innocent. And so, Bruce then took his mantle as a crime fighter and became known as Batman. His butler Alfred Pennyworth would be his confidant to tend to whatever needs he might require. Batman would also find a friend in police commissioner James Gordon who may not approve of his methods, but appreciates the results.

Her rescue inspired her to become a vigilante to get her revenge on Thorne and the other crime that populates the city. Kathy trained herself in gymnastics, but found it wasn't enough when she was quickly defeated by The Riddler. She recruited her friends Rocky Ballantine and Katrina Moldoff to aid her. Rocky acts as her intelligence (similar to Oracle) and Katrina, as the heir to the Moldoff circus fortune, her financial support.

Karlo went on a murder spree dressed as the movie's villain, Clayface, and kills most of the remake's cast and crew, saving the actor in his old role for last, but Batman and Robin (Dick Grayson) intervened.
After several other schemes, Karlo was visited by Sondra Fuller, the fourth Clayface. Karlo suggested that he, Fuller, and the other living Clayfaces form the "Mud Pack" and attempt to kill Batman.

Rules/Notes
- Everyday, you can make three attacks of your choice (unless your character details say otherwise).
- You may use your special ability every day, but please note that if it says of your choice somewhere in it, you ‘’must’’ let me know exactly when and who you want to use it on, otherwise it will be wasted and go unused for the day.
- To attack another character, simply say the character who you would like to attack. It would also be helpful if you could tell me the name of your character.
- Attacks will be decided randomly by flipping five coins.
- Studs will be awarded randomly to the winner of a fight based on the number of hits. The victor could win from three to five studs.
- Please create an RPG Profile to help me keep track of your stud amount. If you need help, please let me know. :)
- Don’t forget to spend your studs at the in-game store.
- I suggest looking at the other characters’ abilities and weaknesses before choosing your own, some characters may be more powerful than others.
- I will start the game when I feel that a sufficient amount of heroes and villains have signed up.
- I realize that I changed the origins of some characters, especially Batwoman, this game is set in its own continuity. I also know how bad some of the weaknesses and abilities are, it’s difficult to come up with abilities that will translate into an RPG.
- Play nice. Respect your co-players, host, and any outside observers. If you don't, you may be asked to leave the game.
- If you sign up for a female character, mention ‘’Gotham Girls’’ somewhere in your sign-up post to get five, free studs. Do not mention the five studs though, they will be added silently.-2
