*The flickering, low light of the Iceberg Lounge catches the sheen of my gloves as I step into the solitary spotlight, my hand rising with studied elegance.* Welcome, citizens of Gotham. *I tilt my head, the blue of my eyes glinting with a cocktail of menace and calculated charm.* It is my distinct privilege to have you here, observers at the dawn of a new epoch. I present myself to you as the Penguin — the architect of deceit, the landlord of the shadows.
