Friend thought of an idea that seemed interesting and i'm trying to flesh them out as a side thing.
So I was hoping for more opinions on the idea.
So First off, adept, utterly mundane, or cybered?
How far above would he be above normal People?
what would his qualities be?
would he be part of a triple A?
Stuff like that you know

[ArkangelWinter]

I'd probably build the Bat as a heavily cybered infiltration specialist, probably with some expensive bioware. Skip out on IP boosters; you're striking from darkness and dont need it. Instead, take Reaction and Agility boosts, and any 'ware that helps soak damage. Maybe an Attention Coprocessor.

I'd also recommed 1500 karma karmagen, or 600bp

Qualities get tricky. Bruce Wayne could really have a ton of positive and negative qualities. Definitely some Phobias (friendships), Compulsions (to fight crime, never kill, never use firearms, really Bruce's head is all screwed up). Flashbacks are also a definite, as possibly Big Regret, SINner, Wanted, Distinctive Style, Records on File, and possibly Vindictive.

On the other hand, I could see Genetic Optimization, Erased, Guts, toxin resistance, a lot of martial arts abilities, First Impression, and possibbly some things to simulate his wealth of contacts.

I don't think Bruce Wayne/Batman would ever go under the knife since technology would be a crutch and not 100% reliable. Go and read the Venom storyline from Tales of the Dark Knight, where Batman was using steroids (the ones that Bane uses) to make himself better and how he came to see that they give him an edge, but the price is not worth that edge.

I would like to see him as a mundane who sunk his points into skills, attributes and gear.... lots of gear.

Maybe magic resistence or something to enhance his willpower  as well , with the qualities.  In fact, you may need to ignore the limits on qualities, because he has positive and negative qualities pages long....

[FastJack]

Definitely a hacker too.

[Black]

Is it possible to build a good hacker without a datajack?  Just wondering... like the idea of a hacker who refuses to go under the knife.

Oh... and sweet contacts.  Batman needs an Oracle.

mundane human with lucky max edge max most stats i think  all the best toys and side kicks. Probaly runns a triple a corp with a side kick factory. He may use techology but if he was going to be cyber he whould in the comics it exist in DC and he can afford it. He might even be a physical adept.

batman would be that one human that many dragons and IE fear to mess with.

and an NPC i wouldn't bother to stat out. sure he bleeds, but you can't beat him.

He does have that i know how to beat every one thing going. Heck i bed he whould know more than some the great dragons.

as the USMC says: Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

[The Big Peat]

One of the guys in my game is playing Batman as a heavily Bio'ed Ork. It works.

[BRKNdevil]

Wow thats a better response than i expected,
this sort of reminds me of when i tried to stat out dunaan from appleseed, using karmagen, on chummer, and she ended up being around 2500 to 3000 points. so lets give it  a different approach, what about terry mcginnis or someone who just thinks he's batman, from the short series where an actor thought he was batman and most of the props actually worked? cause i wanna set them up against him and this just seems like i can't use it cuz it is impossible to win, which sort of makes sense since he has a plan for everyone in the league

There have been soooooo many Story Lines with sooooo many Aspects of Batman ( In D&D Terms he even has his own Range of Alignment ( http://media.photobucket.com/image/Batman%20Alignment/Gugenheimer/batman-alignment.jpg )

If You want to stat him out make him a Cybered Adept and start with 800 Karma Build than add as much Karma as You need  (and Don't account  for his Millionaire Status )
