Batwoman (Nolanverse)

Bryce Wayne was the Batwoman, a brave and short-tempered super heroine, and an emotionally unstable reclusive billionaire in her civilian identity. Now retired with her lover, Sebastian Kyle, she helped protect Gotham City from Ra's al Ghul, the Joker, and Talia al Ghul as Batwoman.

Origins
Bryce Wayne was born to Thomas and Martha Wayne. two generous socialites in Gotham City, and the heads of Wayne Enterprises. While playing with her friend Raymond Dawes, Bryce fell into a bat-infested cave on the grounds of her home of Wayne Manor and developed a fear of bats. Thomas taught Bryce to be noble and kind, and to help those in need of help, regardless of fear. When she was eight years old, however, Thomas and Martha were shot in front of Bryce by a mugger in an alley, traumatizing her for life, and causing her to grow up hurt and angry, determined to carry on the lessons of her father. She was placed in the care of family butler Alfred Pennyworth, who raised her like a daughter, but was unable to stop her from growing into an emotionally unstable and determined adult, dedicated to taking down the criminals that stalked Gotham's streets for years.

As an adult, Bryce attempted to kill the mugger who killed her parents, but an enforcer for mob boss Carmine Falcone killed him before she had the chance. Disillusioned, Bryce traveled the world to train to protect Gotham, before finally encountering Henrietta Ducard, who trained her in the League of Shadows, making her a master martial artist and tactician, as well as allowing her to overcome her fear of bats. When she learned that the League were murderers and planned to destroy Gotham, Bryce betrayed the League and destroyed their temple, saving and abandoning Ducard on a mountain.

Bryce returned to Gotham, transforming the cave into a base of operations for her crimefighting. With the aid of Alfred, and the equipment supplied by Wayne Enterprises engineer Lucius Fox, Bryce donned a bat-like suit of armor, amassed several gadgets and vehicles, and went out on the streets as the violent vigilante "Batwoman", a brave and mysterious warrior of justice determined to rid Gotham of crime once and for all. In her civilian identity, Bryce reclaimed Wayne Enterprises, establishing a snobby richgirl persona for the public and tabloids to soak up while Batwoman remained in the shadows, and reconnected with Raymond, now employed at the District Attorney's office.

Battling Ra's al Ghul
Batwoman started her crimefighting career by disrupting Carmine Falcone's drug shipment, and leaving her for the police with evidence for Raymond to use against her in court. While investigating the drugs, she encountered the Scarecrow, an Arkham Asylum psychiatrist on Falcone's payroll, who sprayed her with a powerful fear toxin she had been exposed to during her training with the League of Shadows. Batman returned to her headquarters, where Lucius developed an anti-toxin. Batwoman later saved Raymond from the Scarecrow, and while she revealed his identity to him, he revealed that she'd shown him that the toxin was being pumped into the city's water supply. She then gave her two vials of the anti-toxin to give to Jane Gordon, the police officer who comforted her on the night her parents were murdered, one for herself and one for mass production.

While at Wayne Manor, Bryce was confronted by Ducard, who revealed herself to be Ra's al Ghul, leader of the League of Shadows, and that she planned to destroy Gotham by using a stolen microwave-emitter to vaporize the city's water supply, now laced with the toxin, and driving everyone mad with its vapor. The two fought, resulting in Wayne Manor being burned to the ground, and Batwoman made her way to stop the train with the microwave emitter before it could make it to the water main. As Batwoman and Ra's fought on the train, Gordon took control of Batwoman's high-powered tank and shot out the elevated railing for the train, with Batwoman leaving Ra's to die in the explosion, saving the city.

Gotham's Dark Knight
Following the battle with Ra's, Batwoman became a public hero and began working closely with newly-promoted Lieutenant Gordon, who would use a spotlight with a bat emblem called the Bat-Signal which could be used to summon her. Batwoman spent the next few months investigating the mysterious Joker, a sadistic, nihilistic terrorist bent on showing the world that the only way to live in an insane world is without rules. She also decided that her original costume wasn't durable or flexible enough, and so commissioned Lucius to design her a new one.

In her civilian identity, Bryce made Lucius the new Wayne Enterprises CEO, while she stayed on as the owner. She found a new home and headquarters in Wayne Tower with Alfred, but was unable to properly connect with Raymond, who was unable to reconcile his love for Bryce with her dual identity as the Batwoman.

The Joker's Campaign
Several months after the battle with Ra's al Ghul, the Joker's crimes of terror began increasing in severity and frequency. Bryce was sure she could find a motive behind the Joker, and use that to stop her, but Alfred assured Bryce that she may have no motive other than causing chaos. At the same time, Batwoman and Gordon began contemplate including new district attorney Haley Dent on their plan to take down mob boss Sally Maroni, seeing how she could be a public hero while Batwoman remained in the shadows. Bryce attempted to get to know Haley, who was dating Raymond at the time, and found her so sincere she endorsed her with a fundraiser, as well as bringing her onto the plan with Gordon as Batwoman.

Meanwhile, Maroni and other Gotham mobsters hired the Joker for half of all their money to kill the Batwoman and Lau, a Chinese mafia accountant who had hidden the mob's money and fled to Hong Kong to prevent Gordon's plan to steal their funds. Batwoman captured Lau in Hong Kong and returned her to Gotham, where she agreed to testify against Maroni and her women. This pushed the Joker to deliver an ultimatum to the city, stating that if Batwoman didn't reveal her identity to the public, people would die every day. When prominent figures like Commissioner Loeb and Judge Surillo were murdered, Batwoman and Gordon faked Gordon's death at the Joker's hands, and Bryce decided to reveal her identity to protect other innocents from the Joker's wrath. Before she could, however, Haley announced at a press conference that he was Batwoman, and was arrested. As Batwoman expected, the Joker attempted to intercept Haley's convoy, but Batwoman and Gordon intervened and captured her.

On the way back to police headquarters, Haley was abducted by Maroni's women and taken to a warehouse rigged with explosives. Batwoman interrogated the Joker at the police station, trying to get her to reveal where she'd sent Haley, but despite everything, the Joker was merely amused by Batwoman's attempts to get information out of her, reiterating her philosophy that life is meaningless and the only way to live is to be lawless. When she revealed that she'd also captured Raymond and that he and Haley were in warehouses on the opposite sides of the city, a furious Batwoman ran out to save Raymond, while the police went to save Haley. The Joker, however, gave Batman the opposite addresses, and Batman arrived to find Haley instead. Batman saved him just before the explosives went off, but they were too close to the blast and Haley's face was permanently disfigured, while Gordon was unable to save Raymond at all, and the Joker escaped custody with Lau, whom she later killed.

Feeling broken and defeated, Bryce realized she didn't understand the Joker like she thought, and had no proper way of defeating her, but Alfred reassured her that she would never give up on Batwoman or what she represented. Filled with a new hope, but still full of anger and sorrow, Batwoman used sonar technology developed by Lucius to locate the Joker. The Joker, meanwhile, had placed bombs on two ferries, one with civilians and one with convicts, and detonators to the other boat's bomb on each, and ordered them to destroy the other boat or he'd destroy both at midnight. Batman located the Joker and stopped her from destroying the ferries after both refused to destroy each other, proving the Joker wrong in her ideals of anarchy. Joker accepted that Batwoman was truly incorruptible, but that Haley wasn't, and so Batman left Joker for the S.W.A.T. team and went after Haley.

At the remains of the building where Raymond died, she found Haley, who had been driven mad by his scarring and the Joker's taunting, now referring to herself as "Two-Face", poised to kill Gordon's family. Batwoman and Two-Face fought, and Haley fell over the side of the building, landing on the asphalt and dying from the impact. Batwoman decided that Gotham needed a hero in its darkest hour, and took it upon herself to have Gordon hold Batwoman responsible for his crimes as Two-Face so that Haley's life could be a beacon of hope for Gotham's people. Gordon reluctantly agreed, and Batman hung up his costume, seemingly for good. As Bryce Wayne, she became a recluse, and holed herself up in the now-rebuilt Wayne Manor as the police took down all organized crime in the city with the "Dent Act".

City of Bane
Eight years after the Joker's rampage and the death of Harvey Dent, Bryce was holed up in his manor as Wayne Enterprises was financially crumbling around him. When a mysterious thief named Sebastian Kyle, also called "The Cat", stole her fingerprints and her mother's pearl necklace, Bryce came out of hiding to get them back. While using his rusty detective skills to search for Sebastian, she was approached by John Blake, a righteous orphaned police officer, who revealed that he'd worked out that Bryce was Batwoman, and insisted that she needed to take back control of her company to help those in need and return as the Batwoman for the city. Later, Bryce met Sebastian at a party and took back the pearls, but Sebastian revealed that he'd given her fingerprints to Joann Daggett, a rival businesswoman of Bryce's. She also met Miranda Tate, a kind socialite who urged Bryce to restart Wayne Enterprises' nuclear reactor project.

When the enigmatic and ruthless terrorist Bane attacked the Gotham Stock Exchange and bankrupted Wayne Enterprises, Bryce finally decided to return as the Batwoman to investigate and take her down with the aide of Lucius Fox's new invention, an aerial device called "The Bat", much to Alfred's dismay. In an effort to dissuade him, Alfred resigned as Bruce's butler, but Bryce continued her crusade nonetheless. She handed control of Wayne Enterprises over to Miranda, concerned that Daggett would take over the company and its new reactor with her in charge.

Soon after, Batman located Sebastian and made her a deal to wipe her criminal records if he took her to Bane. Sebastian agreed, but led her into a trap, alerting Bane that they were coming. Bane then fought a rather rusty Batwoman, and easily outmatched her, breaking her back and taking her to an ancient prison. Bane revealed that she was a member of the League of Shadows, and that she planned to bring Gotham to its knees while Bryce watched helplessly from her prison. She then returned to Gotham and held it hostage with the nuclear reactor, turning it into a lawless wasteland for six long months as Bryce watched in horror on television, unable to do anything to stop her.

As Gotham burns, the inmates reveal the story of how Ra's al Ghul's child, whom was born in the prison escaped. Bryce assumes the child is Bane. A few months later, she recovers and trains, before escaping and returning to Gotham. She gets help from all her allies (except Alfred) to stop the bomb from detonating. As Batwoman, She frees the cops, before they clash with Bane's forces. Batwoman and Bane duel once more, with Batwoman winning this time due to her training, but Tate stabs her in an act of betrayal. She reveals herself to be Talia al Ghul, and thus the child who escaped the Pit. She reveals her plans to finish her father's work and attempts to destroy Gotham, but Gordon blocks the signal and Talia goes to find the bomb. Kyle kills Bane, and the two of them track Talia. They knock her truck down, and make it crash, but she remotely destroys the reactor. With both villains dead, Batwoman takes the Bomb over the bay, where it explodes.

Batwoman and Bryce Wayne are presumed dead, but the former is honored as a hero in the eyes of Gotham City. Wayne Manor becomes an orphanage, Fox learns Bryce fixed the Bat's Autopilot, and Gordon sees the Bat-Signal fixed. Alfred goes to Florence, to see Bryce is okay, and with Kyle, proving that Raymond was wrong, and that she has finally moved on from Gotham and Batwoman once and for all.
