Physical Description
Robin is a 13-year-old vigilante. He is fairly short for his age, and has a slight, muscular build, since he is an acrobat and skilled at martial arts and gymnastics. He has short black hair and dark blue eyes. He typically wears either a mask or sunglasses to cover his eyes, depending on his current attire.
His uniform is comprised of a red tunic, black pants, boots and gloves, all of which seems to be made of a sort of protective body armor, that still allows him great mobility. On his tunic an "R" symbol is visible, and around his waist he wears a gold colored utility belt with various pouches for his equipment. He wears a cape that is black on the outer lining but pale yellow on the inside. To protect his identity, Robin wears a black stylized domino mask at all times. While he wears the mask, his eyes appear completely white. His short black hair is left unkempt, hanging over his forehead.
When he is dressed as a civilian, Robin is seen wearing a black, dark brown or gray jacket, black or dark blue jeans and a green, orange or black hoodie. He also wears black sunglasses to cover his eyes to hide his secret identity.
When attending Gotham academy, he wears a school uniform. His typical school attire consists of a navy blue blazer accompanied by a white shirt and a striped red tie. The blazer is adorned with the school logo on the left breast. This clothing is completed with a simple pair of black leather shoes, khaki dress pants, and a dark-coloured belt. The unkempt hair that defined his civilian attire and hero costume is now gelled-up and combed back.
Weapons
Like Batman, Robin carries a variety of weapons in his utility belt that substitute for superpowers and allow flexibility in attack type. These include:
- Batarang: Shuriken-like objects, acting similar to boomerangs, that are used as long range attack weapons with various uses, such as explosives, or gas emissions. He also uses red batarangs similar in design to those of Batman.
- Grappling gun: A hand-held device that fires a grappling hook across far distances giving Robin the window to make hasty escapes and climb high objects and buildings. The grapple lines can be lengthened and pulled back utilizing the buttons on the gun.
- Eskrima sticks: Another close combat weapon, these are twin fighting sticks that Robin uses, often while in civilian garb.
- Taser: Robin carries around a hand-held taser, that can be used both short range and long range. The exact voltage of the electrical blast is unknown, but it was enough to momentarily slow down Superboy.
- Gas pellets: Tiny, marble-like devices that give off a thick grey smoke which allows Robin to make hasty escapes. Close contact with the smoke can be disorienting for enemies.
- Holographic computer: Robin also has a computer interface and hacking cable attached to his glove which gives him easy access to building schematics and data files. There is a USB cable that he can hook up to larger systems that allow him access.

Personality
Despite being only 13, Robin is more experienced than other sidekicks. He's been training under Batman's wing for four years. Despite Batman's influence on Robin, the two have very contradicting personalities. While his mentor is cold and very serious, Robin's demeanour is quite the opposite. Robin is naturally a very light hearted individual who seems to take joy in nearly everything that he does. Despite his immaturity he can get along very well with people who are older than him and tends to become more mature whenever he is tasked with a certain level of responsibility.
When simply interacting with his friends, Robin behaves in a jovial and oftentimes “little brother”-like role, in which he jokes freely about his team mates, and even makes fun of them when they make mistakes. He has a particularly close friendship with Kid Flash, whom he is able to joke wit and often treats like a brother of sorts. Robin also seems to take great pleasure in over-thinking words, and re-working them in childishly odd manners.
Despite his childlike behaviour at times, Robin is a natural tactical thinker, often coming up with plans for the team on the fly, and figuring out complex situations faster than many of his team mates. He is also very pragmatic and prefers to think ahead. During the team's brief scuffle with Guardian, Robin took the liberty to activate the elevator to escape instead of fighting alongside his team, had no qualms about Miss Martian delving into his mind to retrieve his memories, and took a break from running from Red Torpedo and Red Inferno to download the Cave's blueprints.
Robin initially considered himself to be the natural leader of the team, citing his longer experience as a hero. However, this experience and his strong working relationship with Batman led him to mistakenly assume that the other members of the team would understand and follow his plans without him explaining them. This unfortunately caused problems on their first mission against Kobra and Bane. He subsequently claimed that Aqualad would be a better leader for the team. While Aqualad accepted the role, he stated that both he and the rest of the team expected Robin to eventually take the mantle, due to the fact that he was more suited for the job.
After the trauma of watching his teammates die in a simulation, Robin opened up to Black Canary during a therapy session. He previously wanted to be leader and to someday become Batman, but after sending his friends to their “deaths” in the simulation, he didn't think he'd ever have what it takes to become what Batman is or become leader.
History
Richard “Dick” Grayson is the child of the acrobatic circus family “The Flying Graysons” of Haly's Circus. He was named after his uncle, Rick. His parents, John and Mary, along with his older cousin John and aunt Karla fell to their deaths in a trapeze “accident” caused by mob boss Zucco on April 1st, 2006, when Dick was 9. The only survivor, other than Dick, who did not participate in the fatal routine, was his uncle Rick, who was very badly injured and unable to care for him. Richard has since lived with Bruce Wayne and made the transformation to Robin under Bruce's training(eventually bringing Zucco to justice together). Robin intensely fears that he might not be as fearless as his family(both biological and adoptive) is supposed to be.
After four years and repeated badgering on Robin's part, Batman finally agreed to show it to him. The Hall of Justice. And, from the sound of it, many of the other Leaguers had decided to bring along their respective sidekicks. After a quick fight with Mister Freeze, Robin and Bats met up with Kid Flash, Aqualad, Speedy, and their respective mentors. Unfortunately, Speedy wasn't too keen on the idea of being a sidekick, and all but walked out, leaving the 3 alone. Around this point, a fire broke out in Cadmus Labs, and with the League away on official business, it was up to the three of them to handle it. Through a series of shenanigans involving nearly being cloned and meeting up with Superman's apparent clone, the four(now including Superboy), got the league to agree to a covert team that would operate strictly under Batman's tutelage. Young Justice.
Eventually, their ranks would grow to include two more team mates: Miss Martian, and Artemis. The team lived an ever busy life, going on mission after mission, and dealing with things from trouble in Atlantis to a member of their team going rogue. Robin himself had his hands very busy, dealing with problems both in Gotham and the world at large. Most recently, there had been massive commotion in Gotham. People going missing, reports of bright lights in the sky, the usual. Normally it would be no big deal, but Batman, and the League at large, were out on a covert mission to Martian Manhunter's home planet of... Mars. Which left Robin alone to investigate. What he found was a lot more... magical than he expected. Logically his first choice was to call Kid Flash, his closest friend, whom had had a few magical encounters in the past. Unfortunately, he was a bit... careless, and the next thing he knew, he was whisked through a mysterious glowing portal.
