History YMMV / TheGothamCitySocietyOfFireproofWomen

** ''A Faulty Sword'': [[EvilIsPetty Nemesis]] is the Greek Goddess of Grudges, Blood Feuds, and the Unjustly Slain. Centuries ago she created the Army of Nemesis, an unstoppable force of evil that horrified the Olympians and caused Zeus to kill her. Possessing Harmonia in modern times, Nemesis hijacks her plan to destroy the multiverse with the Army, inflicting [[Characters/BatmanJasonTodd Jason Todd]] with horrific visions of [[ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily the Joker torturing him]] and forcing him to massacre a bar full of innocents after he raises his voice at her. Nemesis later tricks Wonder Woman into [[ThanatosGambit killing both her and Harmonia]], activating the Army and sending them to destroy all life on earth so that [[GodsNeedPrayerBadly the Olympians will starve to death]], while the alternate versions of Harmonia throughout the universe will be eternally trapped in maddening insanity without the Army to end their pain. While her plan is foiled, the Army nevertheless manages to kill hundreds of innocents and four dozen heroes.

** [[AbusiveParents David Cain]] was a member of the League of Assassins, assigned to the creation of "[[OneManArmy The One-Who-Is-All]]" as a bodyguard for Ra's al Ghul. [[TykeBomb Training his daughter Cassandra since birth]] to fulfill this role, Cain refused to teach her to read, write, or even speak; he instead taught her how to be the perfect weapon by murdering people in front of her. One of his favorite lessons involved shooting her in a non-vital area, and if she so much as flinched he would shoot her again. When Cassandra ran away after her first assassination at the age of nine, Cain would betray the League as he obsessively tried to hunt her down. Recruited years later by Harmonia, Cain assisted in creating distractions for Batman by massacring Black Mask's forces, later attempting to cause an international incident by assassinating Black Adam's diplomat. Cain taunts Cassandra for becoming a "faulty sword" under Batman's tutelage but [[DirtyCoward runs for his life]] without hesitation in a fair fight, even threatening to shoot a hostage in a vain attempt to avoid defeat. He later tries to draw out Cassandra for a final match, threatening to kill thousands with bombs set around Gotham. Cain ultimately cares for nothing except securing his "[[FameThroughInfamy immortality]]" through the creation of the perfect weapon.

** ''Motherland'': [[Characters/BatmanRasAlGhul Ra's al Ghul]] is the head of the League of Assassins, an organization dedicated to wiping out ninety percent of all human life. Killing thousands throughout the centuries in pursuit of his goal, Ra's seeks a [[HeirClubForMen male heir]] in the form of Batman, raising Astrid Arkham to believe Bruce murdered her mother so she'll kill all his friends and sever his ties to Gotham. Once Astrid is old enough to enact this plan, Ra's shifts focus, targeting Cassandra Wayne to become his bride and loosing Astrid to wreak havoc. Now seeking petty revenge on the city that foiled him time and time again, Ra's starts fires in the Amazon to draw out [[Characters/BatmanPoisonIvy Poison Ivy]], intending to use her to disperse Venom throughout Gotham so the populace will tear itself apart. Learning that he has an illegitimate granddaughter through Talia, Ra's wipes out the entire town of Parisot in an attempt to rid himself of the potential usurper. Even after Cassandra sabotages his plan Ra's tries to kill Bruce and Selina, revealing under his [[FauxAffablyEvil thin veneer of politeness]] a petty narcissist obsessed with continuing his lineage.

* MagnificentBitch: [[ComicBook/{{Batgirl}} Cassandra Wayne]] is the daughter of assassins David Cain and Lady Shiva, raised since birth to be a [[OneManArmy perfect killing machine]]. Running away after her first murder, Cassandra sought redemption by joining Batman as "Orphan," getting adopted by Bruce and incarcerating her parents. Eventually chosen to be his successor, Cassandra returns the legend of the Dark Knight to its urban myth routes as a monster lurking in the shadows, leaving armies of broken mobsters in her wake. [[spoiler:Upon learning of Ra's al Ghul and the Arkham Knight's plan to destroy Gotham, Cassandra anonymously feeds Astrid information--even allowing her to capture and brutally murder an oblivious Nightwing--to ensure the Arkham Knight won't kill the rest of her family and endanger the unknown mole, before secretly resurrecting Dick with a Lazarus Pit. Willing to leave her grieving comrades in the dark to ensure her plan's success but ultimately never swaying from her dad's [[ThouShaltNotKill one rule]], Cassandra sabotages the pair's scheme before it even gets off the ground, ruthlessly proving once and for all why she is the [[SuperiorSuccessor worthiest successor]] to the mantle of Batman.]]
