Powers and Abilities : Physically, the Joker is an ordinary man with an unusual appearance. Mentally, he is one of the most creative and devious psychopaths in the DC Universe. He employs thugs, gadgets, and his devious and perverse sense of creativity to terrorize the citizens of Gotham, and to a lesser extent, the world.

History : The Joker's origin is shrouded in mystery - many different versions of the story have been told. He came to prominence as a gimmicky criminal with a distinctive appearance, but quickly proved to be one of Batman's most lethal adversaries. Amongst his most noteworthy achievements is the apparent murder of Batman's second sidekick. His obsession with Batman is a powerful one, and even when imbued with cosmic power by Mr. Mxyzptlk, the Joker declined to remove Batman's mask - not as concerned with the man beneath the mask, as the symbolism Batman represents.

Recently, the Joker assaulted an apparently-reformed Harvey Dent in Arkham Asylum, painstakingly recreating the hideous scarring that had once been the hallmark of Two-Face, Dent's villainous alter-ego. This caused Dent to snap, reverting to his old mindset, and causing him to exact revenge on the Joker - shooting him multiple times on his way to an escape. The Joker is still recuperating from these wounds, but he's back out of Arkham, and re-establishing himself in the Gotham criminal underworld.

Note : Joker's previous player was suspended from LiveJournal, along with all of his journals. As a result, many of Joker's prior appearances in the community were damaged, and aren't readable. We have the posts preserved in an archive, however, and for now, we have uploaded an archive file containing posts significant to Joker as an attachment to this page.
