Fandom: DC Comics Small background: Barbra Gordon have been Batgirl for some time, however she started to feel inadequate in a world that had heroes like Superman, Captain Marvel, and Wonder Woman. She retired from her career as Batgirl, but that did not stop violence from entering her life. In an attempt to drive Jim Gordon insane, the Joker arrived at the Gordon's house and shot Barbara Gordon through the spine. He then takes pictures of her in various states of her naked and tortured her to show Gordon later on in attempt to push him over the edge. The shots from the Joker's gun severed Barbara's spine leaving her in a wheelchair for the rest of her life. Upon hearing this, both Barbara and Nightwing, the former Robin, Dick Grayson are devastated. This would lead to an obsessive disorder regarding the Joker, tapping into video of him, as well as telling Nightwing that they should make an exception to their one rule and kill the Clown Prince of Crime. She would later ask Batman for the camera that was used to shoot the pictures of her. She has it in a secret building, along with her original Batgirl suit. Initially Barbara falls into a bout of depression, but soon uses her knowledge of computers in the ever growing modern era and use it to fight crime the best way she can. Using her incredible smarts and photographic memory along with her ability to use computers in a way that most of the DCU are unable to, she creates a new persona. She now goes by the codename Oracle and she serves as an information broker, first to the Suicide Squad, then to heroes throughout her world. She also trains to become a fighting threat from the world famous Richard Dragon although she is still in a wheelchair. She's a key player, gathering information for Batman and his operations throughout the years, specifically during No Man's Land and when Bruce Wayne was accused of murdering his girlfriend. She seems to have a very good relationship with all the members of the Batman’s family in recent years and has served as a member of the Justice League. Upon her complete transformation into the Oracle, she founded the Birds of Prey, a team of female heroes whom she employs and sends out as agents in her fight on crime as well as considering them extended members of the Batman Family.
