Nightwing

Robin (born Richard Grayson) is a member of Young Justice. He is a skilled martial artist, and a very capable technology expert.

Within the team, he has been a vigilante for the longest time, fighting crime for 4 years, since the age of 9. His mentor and adoptive father is Bruce Wayne (Batman).

Personality
Even though he is only thirteen, Robin is quite mature for his age as he gets along well with people who are older than him. He is light-hearted and has fun toying with villains when it comes to fighting crime. Even though his mentor Batman is cold and very serious, Robin's demeanor is quite the opposite. He and Kid Flash have fun messing around together.

Appearance
Robin is a 13 year old vigilante. His eyes are hidden by his mask and he usually has a long cape on the back of his suit. Aside from the the secret idenity, Robin is known as Dick Grayson and is seen wearing a gray jacket, black jeans and an orange hoodie. He also wears sunglasses to cover his eyes to hide his identity.



History
Dick Grayson was originally a trapeze artist alongside his parents in the circus but one day, gang leader Tony Zucco had his parents killed by cutting their rope and having them fall to their deaths, making Dick an orphan. Bruce Wayne took him in as a ward, later taking him on as Batman's partner, Robin.

Robin is first seen alongside Batman fighting Mr. Freeze in a Gotham City park. Soon afterward, he along with Aqualad, Speedy and Kid Flash recieve a tour of the Hall of Justice, the Justice League's faux headquarters. But Speedy soon informs them of the real headquarters: the Watchtower, an orbiting satellite and voices his distaste of being treated like a sidekick. Soon after Speedy's departure, the young heroes decide to infiltrate Project Cadmus where they uncover the hidden genomorph project. They then investigate Project Kr (chemical symbol for the element krypton) and discover a pod containing Superboy whom they release and end up being captured by. Mark Desmond is advised by Cadmus' board of directors to clone and dispose of the heroes, thereby safeguarding their hidden activities from being known by the public and gaining spies close to the Justice League. As the cloning process is being administered, Superboy arrives and frees the heroes for the four of them to make their escape. Robin out smarts Mark Desmond which gives them a head start. After they make it to the top floor, they are confronted by Desmond, who mutates himself into the villain Blockbuster who tries to stop them from escaping. During the battle, Robin has the heroes destroy the pillars supporting the ground facility of Cadmus, collapsing the building on themselves and Blockbuster. After the battle, the young heroes confront their mentors about the way they have been treated and demand a change. Soon after, Batman gives the heroes their own headquarters in Mount Justice and introduces them to their fifth member: Miss Martian.

Powers
Robin possesses no known superhuman powers, but instead relies on his peak physical conditioning, acrobatic prowess, and keen detective skills taught to him by the Dark Knight himself.

Robin, along with Artemis, are the only team members without powers.

Abilities
Though Robin technically possesses no true superhuman powers, his courage, skill, experience, determination and personal strengths are enough to make him a highly formidable adversary even for those with superhuman abilities. Having undergone an evidently vigorous and intensive training regimen under Batman, perhaps the world’s most skilled hand-to-hand combatant, Robin has exercised physical form to the pinnacle of human perfection, surpassing even the finest of athletes in combat proficiency and power. Robin is also the team's stratagist, intelect and most importantly, the hacker.

He has spent his entire life in pursuit of physical perfection and has attained it through constant intensive training and determination.

Weaknesses
Despite his intense training with Batman, Robin has all the weaknesses of a 13 year old boy, and usually must resort to dodging attacks from superhuman foes rather than taking them head on like other heroes might.

Weapons
Robin carries a variety of weapons in his utility belt including batrangs, ropes etc. He also has a computer interface and hacking cable attached to his glove which gives him easy access to building schematics and data files. Robin also posseses his own motorbike.

Kid Flash17950L-1-.jpg
In Young Justice, Robin is best friends with Kid Flash (Wally West). Kid Flash is the only member of the team that knows Robin's identity. Robin often calls him KF as a nickname and in return Kid Flash calls him Rob.

Batman
Batman (Bruce Wayne) is Dick Grayson's adoptive father. Bruce took him in as a ward when Dick's parents died because the boy reminded him of himself after the loss of his parents. It wasn't long before Dick found out that he was Batman and joined him under the name of Robin as his sidekick.

Batman is very protective of Robin which villains use to their advantage; but they underestimate Robin's ability which usually leads to their downfall.

Aqualad
Jesse McCartney (voice of Robin) announced in an interview that in the middle of the season, Aqualad will announce that he no longer wants to lead the team. There will be an emotional scene between him, Robin and later Batman, which results in Robin, reluctantly at first, filling the shoes of team leader.
