After one certain case, Rorschach evolved from a devoted crifefighter to a man bent on his obsession. (This technicaly is a much much darker Batman.) His mask, made of a black and white cloth that keeps changing mirrors his unstable personality.
Role-playing Hints- Rorschach knows the truth, or at least enough to lead him along to the next piece. He is a brilliant detective, but his irrational nature alienates him from others.
