Fuck whatever DC is doing with the al Ghul's characterizations and story lines, I've decided that from now on the al Ghul's are gonna be DC's version of the Addams Family instead.

Now I don't mean just give the various al Ghul's the exact personalities of the various Addams and call it a day. That's boring, that erases all the interesting parts of the al Ghuls, that's just using "find & replace" and not actually adding anything. I mean give them the vibes of the Addams Family.

Keep the al Ghul's as the al Ghul's with all their scheming and machinations and world domination attempts but give them all the unhinged energy, the casually insane view of the world, the deranged levels of love and devotion for family. Make them that group where objectively they are batshit insane but also you cannot argue with the fact that they are indisputably the most stable and functional family in the entire universe.

They're creepy, they're kooky, they're mysterious and spooky. Ra's many opulent homes and impenetrable fortresses are a museum and the al Ghul's really are a screa-um whenever people come to see-um (or when they lay waste upon their enemies in a surprise attack that has been planned for months and is just the first domino in a series that will ultimately lead to achieving a far greater goal).

They all love each other and want each other to be happy, they express this primarily with stabbing and murder attempts (its fine, death is a thing that happens to other people).

And forget the League of Assassins being a cult. Just make the whole vast globe spanning organization a collection of cousins/aunts/uncles/dear old friends ect. No one (not even the al Ghuls, if they cared to keep track of such things) is sure who is actually related to them and who just got absorbed into the ever expanding family tree based on their vibes being right.

(Is Sensei Ra's father you ask? Well he's certainly someone's father - probably.

Anyway have you heard about Cousin Cheshire? Despicable poisoner of a young woman, capable of the most horrific things imaginable - yes she is the sweetest dear. Like I was saying though, she just had a baby!

Everyone in the family is just so excited to throw a baby shower to celebrate! Ubu has really gone all out with the spike traps, he does so love getting to welcome a new addition to the family.

Talia of course has cultivated a brand new strain of the most toxic plants imaginable to make a brand new kind of necrotizing poison. You know, as a nice little romantic gift for Cousin Cheshire and that young man of hers. It really is so important to make sure you take time for you and your partner to go on dates and have a few pitched battles to the death on dark rooftops in the pounding rain when you have children.

Now there is some to-do about it all of course, you know how family get together can be. Everyone is arguing over who should get to give little Lian her first weapon and what it should be. Nyssa is pushing for grenades but Ra's is insisting on a sword - he's traditional like that you know - but Dusan has the vote so far on throwing knives. You know the kind that have the little divots along the edges of the blades them to make it easier to get the poison you dip them in to stick.)

I'm just saying that the al Ghuls should be a delightful cross between the Bond Villains they were originally conceived as and the lovingly unhinged Addams Family. It just feels correct in my heart.

(Again keep the interesting aspects of the characters and the nuances of who each of them are like their drive to save the world through destroying humanity and their strong environmentalist leanings and their constantly playing 5D chess and everything, but like, take away the racism and the cartoonishly evil for no reason bullshit and give them some fun feral energy to go along with it).

So I’m watching Rush Hour with my family when I had the idea for an AU.

Basically here, when Talia fails to trick her father into believing her son died she runs away with him and Nyssa (rather than kill her a lot) helps her escape.

As of now she’s managing Lexcorp giving her mild immunity from her father while Lex is off being president.

So Damian’s being raised in a loving environment and stuff until he gets kidnapped. Kinda don’t know what to do from here.

Who’s in charge of the investigation? I don’t know. I’ll update when I have a better idea.

[heroesriseandfall]

I would like to clarify two al Ghul family members that people often seem to mix up:

Nyssa Raatko, also known as Nyssa al Ghul: daughter of Ra’s al Ghul, older half sister to Talia. She figured out how to make Lazarus Pits reusable, and she killed Ra’s in Batman: Death and the Maidens, then took over the League of Assassins for a while.

Nyssa in Batgirl Vol. 1 #68

Daughter of Acheron: Ra’s al Ghul’s half sister, Talia and Nyssa’s half-aunt. She’s the one Ra’s sent to attempt to get pregnant from Tim in Red Robin. We don’t know much about her, but she is decidedly NOT Nyssa.

and they were sisters

(this comic will be the end of me)

“But Talia’s is this” “Talia is that” Talia is suffering under the effects of ptsd and brainwashing alongside exposure to the Pit since that’s how Nyssa brainwashed her.

In conclusion, everyone needs therapy and family counseling.

This is the official statement for them as members of Batman’s Rogue Gallery.

the other things i like about the arkhamverse are nyssa raatko and that one generic criminal who rates every experience against 'waitin' for food drops in arkham city'

[frosty-the-killer-doll]

OKAY. So Nyssa went back to try and rescue Evelyn, right? And it was never revealed what happened to Evelyn, even though Nyssa survived. So, what if Nyssa really did find this young, angry girl with incredibly shitty judgement of character and saved her? What if she took this rage-filled ball of teenage trauma and decided to raise Evelyn as her own, similar to Black Canary's relationship with Sin in the comics?

Nyssa and Talia in JSA Classified #6-7

[theonewiththecrown]

Like aunt like niece

After it was told in Batman: Shadow and Shadow war, that Nyssa still exists in today canon (and probably her story's just the same, focusing on how Talia loves her) I'm assured that Nyssa took part in raising Athanasia as well.

First, they were raised with manners, boys:

Second, Ath has a very familiar appearance, not inspired by Talia. (Plus black hair, ha-ha) I mean, Talia had some "rock details" a couple of times, even a ring in her nose, but black lipstick and nails are Nyssa's cup of tea:

Talia used guns very often, but Nyssa did love them too:

Both had daddy issues:

Both are emotional after the Pit:

And can be cold and tough, too:

If Ath was raised by Ra's, we can conclude that Nyssa helped with her after loosing all her own children.

[fluffykitty149]

You know how I’m Teen Titans (2016) Bruce didn’t do anything for Damian’s 13th birthday? Feel if writers brought Nyssa back she’d be appalled and fuming.

(For those of you who didn’t know in death and the maidens Nyssa is Jewish and a holocaust surivior)
