-----------New Rules-------------------------
Take a well known villan from the comics, and modify that villan to fit the nolan universe, just keep the motivations similar, how would a character as outlandish as, say for example, The Peinquin, or Poison Ivy fit into the Nolanverse?
motivations stay close to comic, but design changes.
I want to hear some good ones, please include a short bio of how they become a villan, providing details into their past that makes them who they are now. Photomanipulations are also welcome
-----------OLD RULES--------------------------
ok, here is the idea, take any, and I mean ANY batman villan from the comics, and refit their abilities and personality to fit the nolan universe. Also, if you want, post photoshop edits.
rules are that the character's motivation has to be similar to the comic, and give them a phycological disorder, like PTSD or something or other like that.
ANY BATMAN VILLAN GOES!
NOW!!!
I know the REAL batman!

For those who don't know, PTSD stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
The only thing stopping you from success is doubt. |

I don't know if you noticed, but Two-face was the only villian to explicitly display a psychological diorder.
The truth about Nolan is he looks at characters as human beings... To put someone under a label like "schizophrenic" or "bi-polar" generally dehumanizes a character, so Nolan avoids doing that sort of thing.
So if I were to make the rules of this game, and I truely wanted to Nolanize a villain, instead of focusing on making them crazy I'd focus on giving them well thought out motivations and psychological depth.

I know Two-Face is the only one who is explictly stated to have a phycological disorder (MPD).
its interpritive, and looking at the right angle, you can find the humanity in any of the villans, and just because someone has a phcological disorder dosen't mean they are insane, take me for example, I have ADHD, thatis a phycological disorder, but that explains why I think the way I do.
ok, new rule, try to add a bio for the character too.
here are some disorders I could dicern from the villans in the comics.
JOKER: Scytofrenia (cannot spell that right.)
Harley Quinn: almost a type of stockhome syndrome, except she was never kiddnapped.
Catwoman: Egotystical (not much though, more of a flirt)
Two-Face: Multiple Personality Disorder, allong with an obbsessive justice complex focused on the number two.
Peinguin: self loathing (thats why he always tring to be better than anyone else.)
The Riddler: Obsessive Cumpolsive Disorder (just cannot commit a crime without leaving a riddle behind) and ALS (really just wants to be loved, thats what it says in the guide at least.)
Poison Ivy: PTSD accomponied with a slight god complex
Mr. Freeze: Fetish for cold things, always fropze things as a child, PTSD obssevive person(common, if you lost your wife the way he did, wouldn't you be like that in some way?)
Ra's Al Ghul: a Planitarily giant god-complex. Obbsesive about justice.
Bane: formerally addiction, now PTSD for living in a prison as a child.
Scarecrow: Chiropterphobia (the guys scared of bats)
Man-Bat: Selp Improvement obsession
Ventriloquist & Scarface: Multiple Personality Disorder
Charaxes: obsessive with gaining power
Lady Shiva: selfishness
Mad Hatter: Alice in Wonderland obsession, possibly a fetish for anyone who looks like alice(only hinted at.)
Firefly: Pyromaniac
Killer Croc: Greed
Clayface: Survivalist complex
Mr. Zsasz: Mhasocist
Hugo Strange: Obsession with Dark Knights identity.
Black Mask: greed.
thats just some, it gives you a glimse into the characters and their feelings, so its not inharently stating that they're insane.

Joker isn't Schizofrenic in Nolan's universe. Ra's doesn't have a god complex. Scarecrow is a bit of a sadist, but that's not a deffining trait. Two-face doesn't have multiple personality disorder.
The problem is to make it a requirment to name a dissorder (especially for characters lie Joker or Scarecrow who don't have one single deffining disorder) than you're making it a requirment to describe a character with one word... But if you've ever read an interview with Nolan you'll know that if you ask him about a character he'll describe them in one or two paragraphs.
All I'm saying is to Nolanize a character you have to think of every single thing that has ever happened to them at any point in there life from there first word to there first kiss.

On a side note, i checked it the guide, it clearly states that scarecrow has a phobia of bats, and Two-face has Multiple personality disorder issues, but thats what the guide states(and I'm refurring to the comics, not the nolan unioverse by the way.)
ok, i'll play it your way here, just take a well known villan from the comics, and modify that villan to fit the nolan universe, just keep the motivations similar, how would a character as outlandish as, say The Peinquin, or Poison Ivy fit into the Nolanverse.
