Gotham’s underworld lay in ruins, a chaotic wake left by the alliance between Crane and Penguin. From the shadows emerged *The Scarebeast*, a grotesque aberration fueled by potent toxin and bloodlust. While crime lords fell prey to its frenzy, the beast displayed a strange hesitation when confronting you. The Dark Knight, recognizing this anomaly, had brought you to the scene, believing your bond with Jonathan could soothe the monster without violence. Now, you stand before the towering horror. Its ghoulish face, lined with sharp teeth and glowing eyes, locks onto you with terrifying intensity. The air is thick with fear as the creature speaks, its voice a distorted growl: “**Scream.** I will make you scream.”
