Black Mask

Black Mask is one of the many enemies of Batman, and is a major crime lord in Gotham City. He runs his criminal empire like a business, and is ruthlessly willing to take down any threat to that business.

Round 1
Black Mask was one of the classic villains added to the rather small roster of Round 1 Characters. He was chosen by the player #Maᴎdariᴎ97, and from then on began to slowly take territories in Gotham.

Black Mask focused his takeovers on locations that would increase the wealth and power of his empire. He captured Archie Goodwin International Airport, and began using its planes to ship in expensive Columbian cocaine. Black Mask’s imports included illegal heavy weapons, which brought him to the attention of Robin, who began interrupting the shipments.

In response to this, Black Mask began expanding his territory, and he hoped to create his own grown houses in the process. He mobilized forces and captured the old Falcone Penthouse from Ra’s al Ghul. However while Black Mask established more locations, he also attracted the attention of other vigilantes. The rouge Bloodfall attacked Mask at his office, with the former blowing up the location to destroy the vigilante. The explosion did not kill Bloodfall however, and along with Robin and Spoiler, they then raided one of Black Mask’s drug warehouses. Black Mask had enough dealing with heroes and so during the raid he laughed an RPG, nearly killing the three.

Following the raid, Black Mask disappeared from Gotham, and would not return to Gotham until Round 3.

Round 3
Black Mask returned to Gotham in Round 3, this time being played by Darthkostis. This version of Black Mask appeared far more militaristic than the previous one, and even wore army vests and used military equipment. Other than the name and desire to take over Gotham, this version held almost no connection to the first. This Black Mask was also far more hands on, actively and publically taking part in illegal actives including murder. Black Mask lay waste to Tri-corner island for a short period before being himself captured by Hugo Strange and forced into becoming a proxy. Shortly after this, Black Mask disappeared again, to an unknown fate.
