What do you think of the rest of my ideas?
Master Bruce said:This is the design I had made for the Ultimate DC RPG, if you're interested... It's sort of an algamation of Q's idea for the suit, and the WIZARD design...

I've seen. It's good, although, like I've said, I'd lose the yellow bit and make the mask full faced.

Bruce Wayne is the Prince of Gotham. He lives it up as much as possible during the day. During the night, he patrols the streets furthering the legend of the Batman.
He witnessed his parents being gunned down at the age of 8. He was saved by a rookie cop, Jim Gordon.
His training began at the age of 14, because he getting into much trouble as possible (fights, etc.). Alfred Pennyworth (Bruce's guardian) and Leslie Thompkins (Bruce's doctor) agree to bring someone in. Enter, Ted Grant ( a professional boxer and ex-military). Grant teaches Bruce hand-to-hand combat techniques, etc.
At the age of 18, Bruce came across Henri Ducard (a french private detective/bounty hunter) at a local charity auction. Bruce, intrigued by Ducard's craft and realizing that he may want to pursue some sort of career in law enforcement, asks if Ducard could teach him some skills. So, over his summer vacation for the next two summers, Bruce and Alfred live in France while Bruce trains as Ducard's apprentice.
Ducard teaches him tracking, forensic chemistry, and, most importantly of all, how to think like a detective. He takes Bruce on cases with him, has him read over his notes, and puts him through tests to train his analytical way of thinking. Eventually, Bruce becomes an accomplished detective, tracker, and tactitian under Ducard's tutilidge. One day, after completing a job, Bruce meets their client. A wealthy arabic aristocrat named Ra's Al Ghul. Ra's, seeing potential in Bruce, offers to train Bruce in his school of Ninjitsu in Asia. Bruce, intrigued, accepts.
Over the next year or so, Bruce learns stealth, disguise, and how to use misdirection and mind games to fight his opponents. He also becomes a skilled swordsman and staff fighter very quickly. While at Ra's Al Ghul's school, he meets his daughter, Talia.
The two become fast friends, and very quickly fall in love. However, it all comes crashing to the ground when Bruce realizes Ra's Al Ghul's true nature. Ra's is a wanted international terrorist. He leads an attack on a small town near the acadamy with his "elite" class. However, they had been found out, and the town malitia was coming for them. While angry at Ra's, Bruce agrees to help defend the school. During the fight, Tallia is killed. In a fit of rage and greif, Bruce lashes out, killing several of the townspeople. After the battle, empty without Talia, angry at Ra's, and disgusted with himself for what he had done, he leaves.
He spent the next year or so wandering Aisa and Europe. He eventually made his way back to Gotham, just in time for his 21st birthday.
Returning to Gotham, Bruce accepts his position as financial backer to Gotham General (the hospital his family has started). At only 21 years old, Bruce attends clubs, and is photographed drinking, dancing, and flirting with numerous young women near his age, some of them even being celebrities. Then, he is photographed leaving with one or two, and be spotted the next morning leaving an expensive hotel with messy hair and ruffled clothes. Not only that, but he'd have dumb quotes in magazines when asked about economic growth and the like, furthering his stereotype as a young, spoiled heir who wouldn't know a martini glass from a checking account.
The reality of it all is that it's a ruse, a facade. It's there to protect his 'work'.
Some of Batman's equipment would actually be alot of customised surgery tools (IE: Batarangs made from surgical knives aswell as scissors and evidence bags, anethesia), as well as alot of stuff Bruce would discreetly buy out of the country and acquire in his pre-Batman travels. (Bolas, Grappling launchers/hooks, Smoke pellets, Gas pellets, Flash Grenades, Hearing devices)
Bruce receives some of these items from Gotham General. All thanks to the manager Lucius Fox (an old family friend of the Waynes).
Now Bruce begins to make the criminals the corrupt fear the knight.
The Question said:2) Clark just doesn't seem like the kind of guy who'd enjoy the spotlight. It would make sense to me if he avoided it as much as possible.
