DC: Batman
Original Character (OC)
Movie
Cassie Montclair was raised to protect the family name, not to question what it was built on; her father had carefully curated her and her brother's lives to ensure it. When Gotham's systemic rot becomes exposed by a sadistic serial killer, the Riddler, her family's name starts to burn. Bruce Wayne had always kept her at arm's length, even though they had known each other their entire lives. He had spent years overwhelmed in grief by his parents' murders, and only two things gave him purpose anymore: the Batman and the woman he wasn't allowed to have. As they try to find the Riddler and the rat in a drug bust case, the truth burns hotter than either of them can survive, only making clear one truth: in Gotham, secrets never stay buried. Based on The Batman (2022) and the Bruce in that story.

Cathleen was only five when it happened, when her parents died before her eyes. That night started out amazing, she had dinner with them and they went out for ice cream. However, Gotham isn't a place where good things last. When they made it to their car, it exploded, killing her mother instantly, her father rushed to save his daughter, but was gunned down. Little Cathleen could only lay there motionless and watch, whilst slipping into a coma. She slept for a year, but then woke up. The doctors didn't know how to console the traumatized six year old girl, so they let her cry it out. Once she was able to leave the hospital, she was sent to Juvi, because all of Gotham's orphanages where full. She was in Juvi for a year, before taken hostage by Joker. That's when she met Batman, and Red Robin, and Red Hood, And Nightwing. They saved her, they notice that she shouldn't be in Juvi, so they bring her to an orphanage. Cathleen was adopted by Bruce Wayne the following week, now, it's time for her new life to begin. I own story line. Don't be haters!
