EQUIPMENT: Modified Joker venom “tweaked with a bit of Fear Toxin, and a little bit of Venom so it doesn’t kill.” Victim must make a Legendary resistance roll or resistance roll or be affected. The effects of the gas last 6Dx4 hours, with a minimum of 1 hour. A Physique check may also be required for victims of poor health. Once succumbed, a victim can overcome the effects by either waiting for the gas to wear off or attempting a Legendary willpower roll. If this roll fails, the victim can only wait out the fear. Note: Punchline can produce variations of this toxin with varying effects; Daggers (BDV 2D).
BACKGROUND: Alexis Kaye was a student at Gotham’s Snyder College where she was infatuated with the Joker. Eventually, she came to meet Joker through the internet with him even teaching her how to create Joker Venom.
With her new toxins, Alexis went about murdering homeless peoples in Gotham for fun. At the college’s superhero appreciation day she decided to dress in Joker-inspired paraphernalia. Due to this, the dean tried to talk to her in private only for her to murder him and complete her transformation into “Punchline”. Joker seemed to regard her as “the funniest person [he’d] met in [his] life”.
Joker hired Punchline due to his coming war with Batman, following Superman revealing his alter-ego to the public. On his orders, she arranged with the Underbroker to steal Bruce Wayne’s fortune from his offshore shell companies. During the process, Punchline first met both Harley and Catwoman during their and Batman’s confrontation with “the Designer”. Whilst the latter attempted to transfer the fortune, Alexis and Quinn engaged in a brutal fight, which she won. With Catwoman tricked into transferring the fortune to Joker’s accounts, Punchline stabbed her and left her for dead. Following this, she called the Clown Prince of Crime to inform him that their job was done. She has since struck out on her own, seizing control of the Royal Flush Gang.
