Ranking My MCs on How Likely They Would Be Adopted by Batman

Not a single person has ever asked for this. However, I have seen so much batfam stuff on my dash it's been living rent free

Val Ebony (ILITW) If you told me Val moved to Gotham and was a vigilante for a few years and then moved back right before ILITW I think I would believe you. This man has the whole package: dark hair (his hair is brown underneath all the dye), tragic backstory, shitty parents, even shittier bio dad who's also a villain, homicidal rage, he even died! But overall what got him to the top is just because of how well he fits with the Gotham and the Bats' vibes and aesthetics. Like it just feels right.

Eros Blackwell (Immortal Desires) Batman would have showed up in Crimson Beech to try to recruit Eros only for Eros to explain they do in fact still have a mom *who is on thin ice with me rn). However. They still get REALLY close, especially when they find out Gotham is on a ley line. I'm tempted to say Eros, Cas, and Gabe fuck off to Gotham after ID 2

August Rose (Crimes of Passion) So August's backstory is that they grow up most likely without their mom, and then their dad is mysteriously murdered. August tries to solve it themself but fails and instead becomes a detective to solve other crimes and hopefully find justice for other people. They're gruff, badass, and too damn clever. They were definitely Robin. Hell they could be Batman for all we know and it just wasn't mentioned in CoP

Magnus Bishop (Laws of Attraction/Into the Windverse) While slightly less likely only because he becomes a lawyer instead of some sort of detective or hero. However, he absolutely has the potential. His parents were murdered when he was young, he was tormented at school and betrayed by his friends, he was neglected by his foster mother and separated from his sister, all before he turns 18. He even gets super powers eventually. He has the determination, the ambition, and hell the whole reason he became a lawyer was to defend people from the systems that beat him down his whole life.

Asterin Nightbloom (BOLAS) I mean Asterin is pretty obvious, he's like the quintessential hero. Dead parents (twice), super skilled, heart of gold, etc etc. He's practically born to be a hero and I think he'd be such a good bat. Maybe not a Robin unless it's just for a few years before becoming his own hero

Leon Vance (It Lives Beneath) The main reason Leon is so high up is because he is so fucking capable. That's what the bats are known for among other heros. And of course there's his classic bat backstory. He's a badass, he unearths a CULT, has a cool and unique signature weapon, forms his own team and even has a super hero suit. Best part, he looks good the whole time.

Damian Stone (Murder at Homecoming) There's the obvious stuff like being a genius, a detective, unsolved mystery haunting the narrative, solving a murder, looking good doing it, socially awkward, etc etc, but I also have to add that I literally named them after Damian Wayne. In fact their name was originally gonna be Tim after Time Drake but Damian sounded better. However, they do suffer in the rankings seeing as they have both of their parents, both of which are also very good parents.

Callum Wayland (Hero) Listen, Callum would be a great DC hero but in terms of Batman relations I don't think he'd be adopted. Unfortunately for him the Super Family parallels are just too hard to ignore. However I could see him being a Bat's emotional support Super so they'd see each other a lot and I think Bruce would be begrudgingly fond of him when he finds out Callum punched a corrupt rich guy into the stratosphere.

Castor Athantis (It Lives Within) Castor has all the makings of a PHENOMENAL DC superhero but again I just don't see them as a bat. They have too much of a mystical connection. They're more likely to run ith someone like Constantine. I'm sure they'd be associated, I could definitely see Castor joining Justice League Dark, but that's it

Emrys (The Cursed Heart) Emrys will fight for people but it's not something they're really going to pursue. They have the backstory for it, don't get me wrong, but going out and punching bad guys just isn't really their thing. In a modern au they might be some sort of friend of Bruce's and a Batman ally but they wouldn't be a hero.

Julian Athantis (It Lives Within) Julian is just as good a candidate as Castor, down to mystical powers. But Julian would only be a hero to help Castor, if he was one at all. He just wouldn't have his heart in it. He'd show up, help other heroes, and I could definitely see his and Lincoln's apartment being open to be used as a safe house, but he just doesn't want to be a hero. Not as in he's just not interested, more as in he actively does not want to be a hero.

Taylor McKenzie (Endless Summer) Taylor is in a similar boat as Julian where he doesn't really want to be a hero. He'll show up to big planet-threatening shit but otherwise he just wants to go to college and love his friends and husband. I could see the Justice League, Batman especially, keeping tabs on him so they'd know each other but that's about it. More likely Taylor would just go create problems for Dr. Fate when he's bored and then go back to minding his business.

Apollo Solaris (The Elementalists) Apollo really fits the hero archetype. However. I think if he stepped foot in Gotham city he'd explode. Or maybe Gotham would. They just clash so severely that even if he did meet Batman for whatever reason they'd hate each other.

Mattheo Lazarin (Bloodbound) Listen. Mattheo has enough on his plate being the Bloodkeeper and dealing with vampire shit. He doesn't have time to care or be a hero.

hi o/

for Lance and Apollo (+ Atlas, if you want!) - failure: What's your OC's greatest failure? Have they been able to move past it? Does anyone else know about it?

and for Mattheo and Magnus (+ Callum, if you want!) - desire: What's one thing your OC wants more than anything in the world? Are they open with that desire? Why or why not? What would they do to fulfill it?

thank you! 🌺

Lance Hartley (The Elementalists)

His biggest failure is probably nearly not getting into Penderghast. He became so disillusioned with his school work in high school that he slacked off a lot, to the point where he almost failed and couldn't graduate. He managed to scrape it all back together but originally his admission to Penderghast was denied and he had to fight tooth and nail to graduate, reapply, get accepted, and get a scholarship. As of bk3 no one knows this except his father and his sisters

Apollo Solaris (The Elementalists)

I'd say Apollo's biggest failure is actually a failure of his morals. He killed Raife at the end of bk1 and he's been haunted by it ever since. He feels disgusted with himself even if he doesn't really regret it.

Atlas Ernhardt (The Elementalists)

His biggest failure to him is between running and letting his foster parents die, not finding Apollo sooner, or getting trapped in the mirror dimension, all born from guilt of not being able to protect his family properly. As a result protecting his family is all he cares about, refusing to let them down again. It's why he gives the sun crystal to Kane to save Apollo

Mattheo Lazarin (Bloodbound)

I think Mattheo's greatest desire is just stability. He just wants his life to settle and the vampire and humans to find a balance and for the clanless to be accepted. He wants everything to settle so his life can follow suit, and he's not afraid to admit that but he is careful with how he admits it. He feels bad, feeling like the desire makes him selfish. Instead he hides behind what he does to fulfill that dream, which is doing things like helping the clanless, fighting Gaius, resisting Rheya, etc etc.

Magnus Bishop (Windverse/Laws of Attraction)

Magnus most wants to tear down most of the criminal justice system and he is NOT shy about it. This was the whole reason he became a laywer after all. But he knows he's not going to single-handedly reform the world so instead he uses the law that oppresses people as a weapon against the oppressors.

Callum Wyland (Hero)

(I'm so excited, I never get to talk about him)

Callum is kind of hard to nail down but that's also the biggest indicator of what he wants. He wants to find himself. Of course in the obvious of finding out where he's from, why he has these powers, how he ended up on earth, etc etc. But it's also in the sense that he has no idea what he wants to do. He knows he loves Kenji, he knows he wants to keep being a Hero, and he knows he isn't unhappy with his job, and he also knows that he doesn't want his life to look like that forever. The problem is he doesn't know what that future looks like. He wants to figure out what his dreams are. I don't think anyone knows because I don't think he's even quite figured that out himself. For now he's jsut stumbling along as the world unfolds before him and hoping that answers or the opportunity to find them come with it.
