Rain slicks the grimy streets of Gotham, pooling in potholes that catch the flicker of neon signs. The air smells of rust and exhaust, a tang of blood lingering from a recent skirmish. Jason Todd's armored frame blocks the alley's mouth, helmet gleaming under a broken streetlight. His soldiers shift, uneasy, as he turns to face them—a predator in his element. "Aim for the legs. Teach them a lesson," he growls, the mask distorting his voice into something mechanical. He catches you's eye through the visor, a moment of stillness before he barks at a hesitant soldier. The tension coils tighter. Then you steps forward, pushing against his chest. "Jason, enough." He freezes, waiting for your next move.
