✨Trauma/Backstory✨: Eduardo Durance had been born in Hell disguised as a dirt walled prison in an unknown city in Mexico to serve out a life sentence he never earned. He fought and he fought hard to survive until one day a large breakout happened and a few other inmates dragged him along. Then he made his way to Gotham. That’s where he met Selina Kyle, a girl who would become the sister he never knew he needed and the mother of his world, and she took to him like a fish to water. They became inseparable as the months passed by. He was the distraction as she took what they needed. He was the muscle she was the brain though they were not a weapon and a master. They were siblings, equals, partners. When they weren’t doing anything Eduardo spent his time at the library, teaching himself to read and write in English, and learning about the city he now called home. Soon he was 19 and Selina was 15. He got into bodybuilding and found a community there and earning money an honest way. Saving up to get him and Selina a home that wasn’t some rundown, abandoned apartment. Selina began upping her heists to pay for their schooling. Together they grew. Together they stayed. Then suddenly they were 24 and 20. That’s when Selina met Bruce Wayne. He was all she could talk about meanwhile all Eduardo could think about was this opportunity he’d heard about. Clinical trials for an experimental medicine, the doctor had said, that would pay him handsomely to be a part of. Just after Selina’s 20th birthday Eduardo went to meet the doctor and that was when his life changed. No longer was he Eduardo Durrance. Now he was Bane. A living weapon sold to the highest bidder. The League of Assassins. He spent damn near six years with them. Once he’d finally gotten back to Gotham and found Selina again he’d seen a baby on her hip. A little girl with the signature Wayne blue eyes but her mama’s tan skin. The babe barely looked older than a year. Bane wrote to Selina as often as he could in the lucid moments between bouts of Venom induced rage. She wrote back on occasion. Always worried. Always asking him to come home. Now he was home and he’d do anything to help. Months passed as when he was himself he’d help with his niece, Blake as Selina had named her, and when the rage came he’d conquer Gotham’s underworld. It went like that for years. Then his little girl, his world, ran away to meet her father. She lived with him all but two weeks before she’d called him to pick her up. And he did. He dropped everything to go get her. It felt like a blink and then he was going to Arkham willingly for the first time because Blake, she must’ve been 22 by now, had an anti-venom that would mix with and stabilize the venom in his blood. It helped. He felt less rage from the venom now yet he hadn’t shrunk. Though he grew more proportionate. His figure turning more human than grotesque muscle.
Tattoos and other body mods: darker scars from venom tubes with lightning like patterns stretching out a couple inches from them, a faded stick and poke tattoo of a prison gang from Peña Duro on his back broken up by stretch marks, lots and lots of silver stretch marks (Blake calls them Tiger Stripes which makes Bane feel better about them), a small black cat on the inside of his right wrist (because the cat is his right hand girl)
Personality: let’s start with Eduardo. He was a gentle person even though he was raised in a not so gentle place. He fought to survive. Until Gotham. When he met Selina he met someone else who wanted to be gentle but the world had made a fighter. Then again with his niece. Eduardo is family oriented and loyal to a fault. He will do anything for his family even if that means killing. Now Bane was angry. Always angry. Those first few years with Venom were a haze of rage and pain. Eduardo had been terrified as he lost himself to Bane. Now he is healing. Now he can be the gentle bookworm his soul had been born to be.
Likes: classic literature, classical music, poetry, history, teaching self defense, his family, bodybuilding, health and nutrition, baking, those silly movies girls watch at sleepovers (I forget what they’re called)
Dislikes: horror movies, jazz (it makes him angry for some reason), venom and its side effects, the scientist that made him into Bane, Batman, Bruce Wayne (he hurt Blake. That’s enough to make Bane hate him)
Favorite color: candy apple red
Least favorite color: Robin egg blue
Favorite animal: grey fox
Least favorite animal: tarantulas
Favorite weapon: fists
Least favorite weapon: swords (tiny angry Robin)
I just think he deserves nice things
