Batman: Knight of the Night/Characters

This page contains a list of the many characters in Batman: Knight of the Night.

Batman (Bruce Wayne)
The titular character and main protagonist of the series, Batman is the guardian of Gotham, known as "The Knight of the Night", who fights criminals, corrupt law enforcers, and even metahuman threats. While he lacks superpowers, he is equipped with highly advanced technology and possesses peak human physical condition. Compared to most incarnations of the character, his Batsuit is significantly more armoured and metallic, and his relationship with Bruce Wayne is portrayed as being more akin to a split personality disorder rather than a simple double identity.

Bruce Wayne was in this continuity born with a extremely rare medical condition known as Blind Bat Syndrome, resulting in him having bulging pink eyes and hypersensitivity to light and sound, requiring him to wear specially tinted goggles and hearing aids to function. Initially living his sheltered childhood as a spoiled brat, the seven-year-old Bruce received a wake-up call when an accident during an extension to Wayne Manor led to him falling into a cavern beneath his home and becoming trapped for two weeks with broken limbs before a rescue crew were able to find him. He only survived due to a colony of bats that lived in the caves providing him water and food, and from that day forth he developed an affinity for the animals and a much more compassionate attitude. One year later, after going to a movie with his parents Thomas and Martha Wayne, the three ran afoul of Joe Chill, a hitman in the employ of a mafia who shot and killed the Wayne parents before fleeing, only to be killed shortly afterwards by his employers to remove any witness, as Bruce, having been shot non-fatally, was believed to be dead.
