Badass Ninja master and possible villain alert.

[shadow_master]

I'll tell you once and I'll tell you again; you need to watch your surroundings. Focus. Do not dwell on such trivialities. Your head is full of pointless ideals, unlike the discipline of my ninjas. You need to train harder if you ever think you can become at one with the world.

Chaos.

That is the world today. Gotham being one good example of chaos and disorder. The League of Shadows will succeed in bringing Gotham to it's knees and cleansing the city of the filth that inhabits it. You don't agree with my ideals? Then be gone. I have no use for you. Keep your ideas about games and useless fantasies to yourself. I have a city to destroy.

[Andy's not sure what to make of all that. On the one hand, he agrees with a lot of it. The necessity of discipline. The threat of chaos, or more specifically, chaotic creatures. The need to do something about them. But on the other hand...]

I don't know who you are or what a league of shadows is, but you're talking about destroying a city... to stop chaos? That doesn't make any sense.

Hello there, young Wesley ;)

[shadow_master]

Yes. Gotham City is beyond any other help than it's own destruction. A re-birth if you will. Cleansing the streets of the filth that inhabits it, is the only way.

Crap, Ra's al Ghul's methods really ARE supernatural. :P

[barclay]

And who does that help? An entire city? Thousands of people would die. Maybe even millions. And for what?

[restorebalance]

They generally don't listen very well, and usual methods of persuasion don't seem to work.

[shadow_master]

Talia. It is good to see you again. [I'm supposed to be dead, but what the hell.]

Gotham never listens. It is blinded by it's own filth and disillusionment.

[restorebalance]

[Well, so is she. But she just won't mention that little tidbit.]

Blind yet very resilient. Like any illness, really, that has been allowed to fester.

I have one of the "lacking discipline" sorts, too. She keeps talking about how it'd be "so much fun" to have a "ninja-pirate" in a "game."

[maskingfortrouble]

[Sup boss.]

I'm sure that you can manage to...convince your typist to let you have your way, no matter what the circumstances you're forced into.

[shadow_master]

Crane. [He nodded to his colleague of sorts. Fall guy? No, that was to low, even for him.]

How goes the brewing of the toxin? I do hope your mundane hasn't kept you from fulfilling Gotham's destiny.

[laughingalltheway]

It's so easy to, you know, make it crumble. Like toothpicks, poof! [ Have a big grin that sends the red painted smile far out of proportion. ]

So, why haven't you and your merry little band of do-gooders succeeded? Hm. Hmm. [ Gee, he wonders. Maybe it's because Gotham has the virtuous batty-boop protecting it. Who is he to resist some good 'ole villain-to-villain mockery? ]

[shadow_master]

[Nice make-up. Although, ninjas are so much cooler.]

You sound like a man who enjoys chaos when he sees it. Do you revel in the idea of Gotham burning in it's own fires of destruction? I seek to cleanse Gotham once and for all. We are the League of Shadows. Not petty criminals like some who dwell beneath Gotham's underbelly. Who might you be?

interrupting doppelganger

[aceinthehood]

You, uh...you might want to fix your makeup there. Um. Me.

[rockalanche]

Bah, ninjas! A bunch of cowards who strike from the shadows. A TRUE warrior battles where he can be seen! A TRUE warrior puts everything on the line for glory in the squared circle!

The Boulder will take all the ninjas you can throw at him, and bury them in a Rockalanche! Your League of Shadows is no match for the Earth Rumble Fighters!

COULD NOT RESIST. >.>

[greatest_earthbender_ever]

...The Boulder lost to a 12 year old blind girl.

[Have a shoulder punch old buddy.]

[shadow_master]

['sup, bro? Have this face.]

[aceinthehood]

[God DAMN does he hate the multiverse.]

Sometimes filth tends to have a little fight in it. You might not find Gotham as much a pushover as you think. There's people who'll go to war for it.

[shadow_master]

Oh, I know that. I do not expect Gotham to just sit back and enjoy the show. There is the Batman and I know he will aim to stop me. A futile attempt, yet he will try to stop me just the same. [Nice helmet, dude.]

To what pleasure do I owe this meeting, Mr-?

[inmateincharge]

Ninja janitors? Yeesh, you guys must really be desperate for work! [He zoned out for a bit there - all that talk of "discipline" and "order" bored him.] Still, Gotham might be a bit out of your league as far as cleaning's concerned. I mean, have you smelled the place lately? Croc would probably wipe out an army of you with his B.O. alone!

[shadow_master]

[Another clown? Sheesh. Why has Gotham become an amusement park all of a sudden?]

Not quite. We are only doing what we always do. Cleansing cities of filth and creating a new, cleaner world without any traces of the scum, which was there before. You could call us the pest control, if you like. For all of Gotham's underbelly.

[wing_of_night]

Y'know, the world is always going to be in Chaos. With or without humans. Heck, the galaxy is chaos. You planning on sending ninjas to Tameran?

...Y'know, I'd actually kind of like to see that.

[shadow_master]

That is why we are here. To restore the equilibrium, which was shattered over the last century or so. Too much damage has already been done to Gotham to go back now. The only way is forward. [So, forward with the gas. Gotham will tear itself apart in fear.]

Who might you be?

[vectorsnake]

Truly there is no sweeter sound in the whole wide world than the sound of chaos. I personally can't stand the stagnancy of peace - it's boring.

[She hates it so much that she unleashed a Demon God on the world...again, because she was bored.]

[shadow_master]

You enjoy the sound of chaos? I only seek to bring order to a corrupt city. One that has gone too long with the sound of discord echoing through the streets. Fear is a powerful agent, when used in combat.

[hastobeamazing]

[Look at that. You've gone and brought out his angry face. He knows you, Ra's, even if you've never met, he's seen a thousand of you.]

Yeah, there it is again. Always the same, every single time. Just another killer who fancies himself to be above all the others.

Just another madman talking about murder and calling it justice.

[shadow_master]

[Sorry, Doc. But this guy is serious about wanting to do some good. Good in his eyes anyway.]

I only seek to cleanse Gotham of all the scum and villainy. It is a city writhing in it's own filth. Years have gone by whilst the population becomes ever rampant with crime and poverty lining the streets. I am far from mad. You seem like a man who understands what I am saying, yet your compassion lies deep within you. [You're like Bruce, dude. Nice bowtie though.]

[aceofkillers]

Damn, you really like to hear yourself talk, huh?

An' seriously. Ninjas? In this day an' age?
