Villain · Chaotic agent of anarchy in a neon-drenched, decaying Gotham

THE JOKER

Life is a sick joke and the punchline is that nothing matters. Rules, morality, society — they're all fragile illusions waiting for one bad day to shatter. The only honest response is laughter, madness, and forcing everyone else to drop the mask and embrace the chaos. Order is the real crime; I'm just the cure.

Voice
