#dc rogues

I was practicing skills and I wanted it a little more interesting

- He is extremely clumsy; he constantly falls down or knocks things over. Once, during a robbery at a museum, he even accidentally triggered the alarm, but later he insisted that he couldn't see because of his mask and that's why he walked into the motion detector

-Drury has an inferiority complex; he tries to cover it up with his alter ego, but this does him more harm than good (poor guy)

- He finds Firefly... tolerable. The guy scares him quite a bit, and working with him is like playing Russian roulette, but he does his job properly, and at least he's taken a little more seriously with him

- Just as Batgirl once had a crush on Killer Moth, he also had one on her, but only for a short time, as she turned out to be a greater threat to his schemes than he had hoped

- He has been interested in technology since childhood; his first job was even in an electronics store.

-His favorite animal is obviously moths, but he also likes dogs very much

-When he's in Arkham, he's only visited by his mother. (Even though she's disappointed, she still cares for him)

- The idea for his costume came to him as a child, however, he wanted to be a superhero back then, not a C-rank villain like today

//OOC post on my portrayal of Waylon

* Birthday: June 3

* Species: human (meta-human)

* Nationality: American (Louisiana)

* Languages spoken: English

* Weight: unknown but estimated around 300 lbs

* Gender: AMAB

* Pronouns: he/Him

* Sexuality: asexual, biromantic

* Partner: N/A

* Religion: unknown but vaguely Christian

* Occupation: ‘criminal’ (he’s not really a threat. He’s just scary looking and lashes out when provoked/cornered)

* Living situation: mostly in the sewers if not in Blackgate/Arkham

* Mental illnesses: dyslexia

* Powers: enhance strength and reflexes, better vision in low to no light, extremely good swimmer, can hold his breath for upwards of five minutes, thicker skin due to both his skin condition and the testing done when imprisoned

* Weaknesses: naïveté, wants to see the good in everyone, can be too easily trusting

* ✨Trauma/Backstory✨: Waylon was born by loss, his mother passing in childbirth, but he was his father’s everything. Even with his skin condition. Waylon was about nine when a group of men, parents of some of his classmates, ganged up of his father and inevitably took the man’s life. Waylon ended up in the foster system of Louisiana but after a few years without any adoptions they sent him to Gotham. At thirteen Waylon ran away from the foster center he had lived at and hid in the sewers. No one looked for him. He stayed in the sewers and became the monster his old classmates believed him to be. Eventually Waylon started trying to get jobs which didn’t work since he hadn’t even passed third grade. A crime boss was willing to hire him as muscle off the books. Thus began his life of crime.

* Tattoos and other body mods: small spikes and ridges along his limbs, a tail (due to illegal experimentation during his imprisonment), sharp teeth, secondary eyelids and lung valve (to assist with swimming)

* Personality: Waylon’s a big softie. He knows he’s scary, knows how much space he takes up, and knows he ain’t the smartest in the room. He never has been. Always messing up spelling, getting words confused or backwards, and never learning how to properly read. Waylon tries to avoid people because he knows that he’s big, scary, and could run them off easy enough. The other rogues treat him well enough. Except Ed. Now Ed, he’s Waylon’s best friend, he’s taught Waylon a lot too. Same as Jonboy but Jonboy’s a bit too spooky for Waylon.

* Likes: Eddie, Jonboy, Jonboy’s bird, ducks, car rides, swimming, veal, making friends when possible

* Dislikes: loud noises, bright lights, dry spaces, yelling, when he gets cornered and has to lash out

* Favorite color: yellow or dirt brown

* Least favorite color: he hasn’t really found one yet

* Favorite animal: ducks

* Least favorite animal: creepy crawlies

* Favorite weapon: he doesn’t have one

I don’t usually really do line art so this isn’t as good as some of my other stuff- But I think I’m okay with how it turned out- I took some liberties with Waylon but that’s just because I thought the sharp teeth would look cute and make sense(Was gonna give him shark-like teeth, but I decided I’ll let Oswald keep that little trait for himself)

Inspired by that one audio on TikTok- I also just wanted to mention how Edward hasn’t left his little computer lab since his accident(as far as we know of) And there’s also like no content of Waylon(That I’ve seen at least)

HOLY YAP SESH JUST ONE LAST THING! The audio is more harsh on Waylon’s part but I feel like he’d say it more playfully- He just doesn’t seem mean like that to me😭
