| 9 | |
| 10 | Selina Kyle is a costumed cat burglar known by the alias Catwoman with an on-again, off-again, romantic relationship with Batman. She would later marry Bruce and sire a daughter with him known as Helena Wayne. |
| 11 | ---- |
| 12 | * AbsurdlySharpClaws: She wears gloves with diamond-tipped claws. |
| 13 | * ActionMom: After becoming married with Bruce, Selina is now the stepmother of Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Cassandra Cain and Damian Wayne. Also she's biological mother of Helena Wayne. |
| 14 | * BadassNormal: Quick combatant, has the ability to roof hop (which ignites hers and Batman's iconic roof chasing), took lessons in martial arts and acrobatics (with some self-training involved), and overall has come to be able to fend for herself incredibly well, expertise resembling that of the Bat-Family members. |
| 15 | * BareMidriffsAreFeminine: Her civilian appearance and she's a confident and sexy woman. |
| 16 | * BelligerentSexualTension: With Batman. Even after marrying they still have their moments. |
| 17 | * BerserkButton: It's best not to hurt any cats around her, but especially not the ones she personally owns. |
| 18 | * BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The brunette to Harley's blonde and Ivy's redhead. |
| 19 | * CatsAreMean: Her pet Isis usually helps her steal valuables. |
| 20 | * ClassyCatBurglar: She's the TropeCodifier, or at least used to be. |

| 25 | * DeadpanSnarker: Selina is one ''sassy'' woman. |
| 26 | * EveryoneHasStandards: Despite being very morally grey herself, she's completely disgusted with most of Batman's other foes with the exception of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. |
| 27 | * FemmeFatale: One of the more classic examples, though the influence has decreased a bit over the years. |
| 28 | * FriendToAllChildren: She has a soft spot for kids, and seems to instinctively know how to get them on her side. This is probably why she gets along so well with her stepchildren. |
| 29 | * FriendToAllLivingThings: All cats, at least. Krypto seems to have taken a liking to her as well. |
| 30 | * GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: They give her night vision. And general eye protection, since her line of work tends to involve crashing through skylights and other potentially eye-unfriendly things. |
| 31 | * GoodStepmother: Selina draws no distinction between her biological daughter and her many step kids. She loves them all equally, and will make the life of anyone who hurts them a living Hell. |
| 32 | * TheHedonist: As expected for a woman whose life creed is basically, "Do whatever the hell you want." Whether it's food, fashion, jewelry, sex, or thrills, Selina loves to treat herself! |

| 39 | * MsFanservice: She is a woman who goes around in tight leather and spends a lot of her time flirting with everyone around her. |
| 40 | * OfficialCouple: With Bruce. |
| 41 | * PowerTrio: While they don't hang out as much as they used to, she, Harley and Ivy are still the Gotham City Sirens. |
| 42 | * PromotionToParent: After her mother [[DrivenToSuicide killed herself]] and father died in a drunk driving accident, she became this to her sister Maggie before they were separated. |
| 43 | * ReformedCriminal: She even voluntarily returned to Arkham to finish her sentence. Now she's content with being the wife of a billionaire. |
| 44 | * SpyCatsuit: Both the TropeMaker and TropeNamer. |

| 53 | * CoolOldGuy: Like Alfred he's a savvy, snarky, older gentleman. |
| 54 | * FanBoy: Lucius Fox has admitted to being a Nite Owl "fanboy", basing much of his designs on Nite Owl's arsenal. Interestingly, Lucius said he knew an aeronautics engineer at Atwater Air who was also a Nite Owl "fanboy" and the two would often geek out by theorizing how that equipment was made, even occasionally making blueprints. These hobby plans would late be adapted into actual prototypes for use by the Batman and his allies. |
| 55 | * GadgeteerGenius: He's helped invent a lot of Batman's equipment. |
| 56 | * HonestCorporateExecutive: Like Bruce, he is also an equally honest businessman. Bruce hired him because he recognized Lucius's strong business ethics.

| 58 | * ScienceHero: He's the good-hearted scientist who help created Batman's gadgets and other cool tech. |

| 72 | * HiddenDepths: She likes country western music and that allowed her to develop her American accent so well she can pass as American. |

| 89 | * PosthumousCharacter: Their deaths was a signal to Gotham City's criminal underworld that evil could get away with anything, and the city suffered as a result. |
| 90 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: It's easy to tell were Bruce got the looks from. Martha on the other hand looked similar to her relatives on the Kane family, especially her niece Kate. |
| 91 | [[/folder]] |
| 92 | |
| 93 | [[folder:Helena Wayne]] |
| 94 | The daughter of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle, making her half-sister of Damian Wayne and Terry [=McGinnis=]. |

| 150 | * BadassNormal: Having been around for much of Bruce Wayne's training and having watched all the Robins train in the Batcave, Harold is a very skilled fighter, technically. He lacks the mindset to utilize this in most circumstances, but when properly motivated (such as when David Cain was threatening a young Dick Grayson) Harold has risen to the occasion. Coupled with his immense size and strength from years of hard work, Harold can do significant damage. He once choked out Man-Bat in order to save the life of Alfred. |
| 151 | * TheEngineer: Harold's true talent is in understanding machines and how things work. Harold is fully capable of building, repairing, armoring, retrofitting, and dismantling all manner of machines including aeronautical and automotive vehicles, cutting edge weaponry, explosives, and on a few occasions even alien machinery.

| 153 | * TheMedic: Having seen Alfred carry out a number of procedures and having a knack for understanding how things 'fit' together, Harold has proven himself to be quite the medical expert, having once saved Alfred from bleeding out after an attack by a crazed Man-Bat. Still, Harold gets a bit squeamish around blood so he prefers to let Alfred do the stitching up whenever possible. |
