[*] Full History: Charles Desmond Harper Jr was born into a family that came from a long line of assassins, being part of an order of assassins. His parents were both master assassins, as was his uncle. From birth, Charles was trained in the arts of assassination, martial arts, stealth, archery, marksmanship and other skills he would need to be a master assassin. He was slightly anti-social as a kid, pushing kids away because he was afraid they would get hurt because of his training. He took to the training with a vengeance, showing natural and great aptitude for all he learned, but he did have a particular aptitude for martial arts and marksmanship. Since he was being trained by three master assassins, he was inducted into the order at the age of six. Other kids in the order were a bit amazed as Charles began to master advanced techniques, showing that he was a prodigy when it came to the assassination training. What Charles didn't know until later on in life, was that he was descended from the creator and grand master of the Order. He would either lead the order to greatness, or destroy them. This was one reason that he was trained from birth, and kept near the best teachers within the order.
[/ul]By the time Charles turned fifteen, he was already an excellent assassin who had considerable skill in martial arts, marksmanship, stealth, weapon handling and other skills. His training had been more advanced than the other students, mostly because of his potential and the fact his aptitude for the training had allowed him to excel at it and reach the skills of someone twice his age by the time he was only fifteen. However, his true prodigal skills laid in martial arts, and weapon handling. But this was when everything went to hell for the young Harper. A hooded man wielding a bow and arrow killed his parents before his very eyes, and the assailant escaped before Charles could disable him. This caused him to dive into his training even more, and also spend time trying to find the assailant. It would be another five years before Charles discovered the truth. On the day of his 20th birthday, he was presented with a high-tech suit and presented with the rank of Master Assassin. However, by this time he had discovered his uncle had been the assailant to kill his parents, and as soon as he donned the suit, he attacked him. The other masters attempted to fight him, but Charles's skills, combined with the powerhouse abilities of the suit, he was able to kill the masters and cripple the order. However, his uncle managed to escape before he could kill him.
Packing up his belongings, Charles began to travel. He spent a year and a half in Paris, expanding upon his Freerunning and acrobatics skills. After this, he spent a year in China, learning meditation, something he needed. And after this, he spent a final year and a half learning traditional healing methods under Nepalese monks. By the time he returned to New York City, his home, his mind and body were honed to an even greater level than they had been four years before he left, having reached peak human conditioning and having a well disciplined and honed mind, understanding mechanics, engineering, chemistry, criminology, forensics and physics. Returning home, he got a day job as a mechanic and in secret, he began to work on the enhanced battle suit he had been given. He reworked it into more of a bat shape, adding long ears to the top of it, adding a red bat symbol to the chest and making throwing discs into the shape of an advanced bat. His suit includes thrusters and extendable wings, a buzz saw built into the built in utility belt, grants him superhuman strength by amplifying his natural strength by ten through neuromuscular amplifiers, spikes that can harden and be used as blades, claws and . But he wouldn't take up his costume for months to come, instead focusing on his training and keeping his body at peak condition.
During the Invasion of the Chitauri, Charles donned his costume for the first time and joined the fight, attack the foot soldiers and the aerial attackers. He managed to survive, and even give the people another hero to root for, because of his extensive skills in combat and as an assassin. He didn't escape the battle unscathed though, as his suit was damaged and he suffered three broken ribs, and a broken arm. After the invasion, during which he saved several civilians, the Avengers and SHIELD approached him, both overlooking his past as an assassin. They considered him to be a valuable asset to have, and wanted him to both be an Avenger and a SHIELD Field Agent. After a small bout of SHIELD training, he became an official Field Agent and took up the mantle of 'Dark Bat' as an Avenger. While he is only a human, he is one of the most skilled members on the Avengers due to his extensive training as an assassin.

"Let’s See If You Know Them Well!"
RP SAMPLE: Punching the Wing Chun dummy, Charles's hands moved at incredible speeds as he continued to slam his fists and arms from stick to stick. Wing Chun was one of the multiple disciplines he had learned during his twenty years of assassin training. Even as a toddler he had been trained in martial arts, and it was one reason he'd developed proficiency in them at the pace he had. He'd mastered at least forty, maybe forty five of them. And he'd mastered other disciplines, such as marksmanship, archery, several types of weapon and several other disciplines. One reason SHIELD had only given him some training, and one reason he was highly capable both as an Agent, and as Dark Bat. With one kick, he kicked the Wing Chun dummy far away and cracked his neck. He was just so sick of training, as he'd been almost obsessively training in his spare time, when he didn't have his hero duties or when he was on a mission with SHIELD.
Grabbing his water bottle, he took several sips of water and put it back down. Walking over to firing range, he cracked his neck and picked up one of the crossbows. Despite the fact he was a highly trained marksman and proficient in the use of firearms, he didn't like them. They could kill very easily and he just didn't like the feel of them. He'd use them if there was absolutely no other choice, but other than that he would avoid them. Taking aim at the bullseye, he fired six bolts from the crossbow, and grinned as the bolts hit their intended target. The five were around the bullseye, in a star formation, while the sixth one hit it directly in the center. He'd always shown off like this, sometimes even writing his name using arrows or crossbow bolts. Continuing to fire and reload the crossbow, he continued to fire at the targets, even firing at some on opposite sides of the range. As he finished the shooting, he put the crossbow down and took off his black leather gloves, the ones he would wear while training.
