Line 306:
** {{spoiler|Subverted in Harley Quinn's Revenge. There are many objects used for pregnancy tests in a room with Scarface in a crib painted like [[The Joker]]. They all show negatives and a box for one of them says that it is possible to get a false positive on the test.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Taking You with Me]]: Her ultimate plan for Batman in her DLC. Barring that, she wants him to know the pain of losing a loved one, in this case Robin}}.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Comes off as a lot more competent in the second game, since she's managing all of Joker's goons while he's inactive. She's also worlds ahead of her portrayal in the TV Series and comics, with the result that overheard conversations between mooks suggest she frightens them almost as much as the Joker: some claim that she's even crazier than he is, and suggest that one of her roles in both Arkham Asylum and Arkham City involves torturing and/or killing the Joker's [[You Have Failed Me...|less efficient minions]].
** Oh, and that's not even getting into her DLC in the second game, Harley Quinn's Revenge.
** Not to mention her getting her own DLC campaign in ''Arkham Knight.''
Line 343:
* [[Scary Black Man]]: Well... formerly black (and from a certain point of view, formerly a man), but definitely scary.
* [[Serial Killer]]: He is responsible for the "disappearance" of hundreds of Gotham vagrants.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Chronologically at least. Back when Batman was still a rookie superhero in ''Origins'', he's able to defeat Croc handily in their first battle back when Croc wasn't quite as monstrous as he is now. Come ''Asylum'', Batman can only run from him or temporarily stun him by attacking his shock collar because due to Croc's larger size and heavily improved strength, taking him on directly is suicide.
* [[Villains Out Shopping]]: He shows up in the VIP section of the Iceberg Lounge challenge map as a [[Funny Background Event]], [[Smoky Gentlemen's Club|drinking a glass of brandy and smoking a cigar]].
* [[Warmup Boss]]: Is this in ''Arkham Origins'' as he's the first of Black Mask's assassins who tries to take down Batman.
Line 598:
* [[Sinister Schnoz]]
* [[Smug Snake]]: He is ''very'' egotistical.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: For many Batman fans, this was the game that finally made them take Oswald seriously.
* [[Wicked Cultured]]: Subverted, but he'd tell you otherwise.
 
Line 678:
* [[Powered Armor]]
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: His goggles go red when he's going to freeze things (or people).
* [[Stealth -Based Mission]]: Oracle tells Batman when the fight begins not to take Freeze head-on, since Freeze can easily overpower him. The achievement for defeating him is even called "Hide and Seek".
* [[Troubling Unchildlike Behavior]]: His obsession with ice and preservation led him to freeze several of his neighbors' pets, an act that landed him in reform school.
** Although he ''did'' plan to revive them later.
Line 715:
 
* [[Affectionate Nickname]]: Always refers to Batman as "Detective" as a sign of respect.
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: Between ''Arkham Asylum'' and ''Arkham City'', and at least once beforehand, judging from Batman's comments.
* {{spoiler|[[Bigger Bad]]: He's the one pulling Strange's strings, to see if he's a worthy successor.}}
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: In ''Arkham Asylum'', Ra's was a corpse, but was quite alive (if in poor condition, at first) in ''Arkham City''. Earlier, Batman stated to Talia that if Ra's was "dead again", he needed her to "wake him up", indicating that this is not Ra's' first time rising from the dead in this continuity. {{spoiler|Later, after Ra's is killed, Batman is unconcerned, simply saying that Ra's was going to need another trip to a Lazarus Pit. Sure enough, in the [[Playable Epilogue]], Ra's' body is gone, hinting at another possible resurrection.}}
Line 737:
* [[Sinister Scimitar]]
* [[Skunk Stripe]]
* {{spoiler|[[You Have Failed Me...]]: He ends up stabbing Hugo Strange in the back when he failed to defeat Batman.}}
 
==== {{spoiler|Hush/Thomas Elliot}} ====
Line 793:
* {{spoiler|[[Boomerang Bigot]]: He wants to kill all mentally ill people as a result of his self-loathing over his own insanity.}}
* [[Canon Foreigner]]: Only shows up in the Arkhamverse.
* [[Doing inIn the Wizard]]: In the first game {{spoiler|Sharp is revealed to be the "Spirit of Amadeus Arkham", implying he's either cracked under the strain of his position or was possessed in some way. Come the sequel where it's revealed Hugo Strange was just drugging and hypnotizing him using skills he learned from The Mad Hatter.}}
* [[Fake Ultimate Hero]]: He took credit for stopping Joker's plot in the first game, as well as securing the Asylum, and uses that to become the Mayor of Gotham and build Arkham City.
* {{spoiler|[[He Who Fights Monsters]]}}
Line 860:
* {{spoiler|[[Taking You with Me]]: Initiates "Protocol 11" after he is stabbed from behind by Ra's Al Ghul, which results in the entire top of the Wonder Tower exploding. It fails, as Batman and Ra's escape before being caught in the blast}}.
* [[Villain with Good Publicity]]
* {{spoiler|[[You Have Failed Me...]]: Suffered this fate from Ra's Al Ghul, who even says the line.}}
