History:
In late 2006, when Steph discovered that she was
pregnant, she and Tim were overjoyed. They had always
worried that the baby Steph had had difficulties in
delivering when she was 15 had made it impossible for
Steph to get pregnant again. After a fairly easy
labour and delivery, Peter Drake came into the world
in August, 2007.
His arrival into the world would be one of the few
things that was easy about Peter. Tim and Steph
quickly discovered they had an extremely obstinate
child on their hands. Right from the start, Peter
insisted on doing things his own way, and in his
own time. It was frequently a battle of wills in the
Drake household. Three years after Peter was born, his
sister Jaqueline arrived. Peter tormented his younger
sibling from day one, until she was old enough to
fight back, which she quickly did. This just caused
Peter to figure out more sneaky ways in which to
torment Jack.
As soon as he was old enough, Peter was enrolled in
the Theodore Knight Academy, as his parents hoped that
he would learn some discipline there. Peter can be a
good student, a superior student even, but he is very disruptive in class. He
is a frequent guest at Principal Hawkins office.
At the age of eight, Peter discovered the 'family
secret' (which isn't really a secret, just something
that his mother doesn't like to talk about much), that
his grandfather, Arthur Brown, was a costumed criminal
who called himself the Cluemaster. Peter was instantly
intreguied. He'd never really found his parent's
costumed careers interesting (partly because the hero
business was such a big part of his life, what with
his parents' best friends and such being heroes
themselves), and so threw himself into researching his
grandfather's exploits. He even went so far as to
contact his grandfather (who was currently in jail).
Arthur Brown gladly talked to the boy, but when Steph
found out about this communication, she got very angry
and forbid Peter to ever contact his grandfather
again. Peter resented this a great deal.
At the Knight Academy, Peter found some kindered
spirits in some other troublesome students, such as:
Kathryn Kyle (the Kitten), Jack Chambers (Jack B.
Quick) and Lisa Snart (Frostbite). These four formed
the nucleus of a group that they later dubbed the
Miscreants. Peter, totally rejecting his family's
Robin heritage, took the codename Hunter for himself.
The main purpose of the group is to commit petty
crimes that they know would peeve their parents off to
no end.
Personality:
Take Stephanie's stubbornness and Tim's broodiness,
multiply that by about ten, and you have Peter Drake.
Somehow, Peter seems to have inherited all the worst
personality traits of his parents. He has very
little respect for authority and always has the right
answer as only a 14 year old boy can. He has been in a
state of rebellion since practically birth. However,
when Peter does find someone he likes, he is a very
loyal friend and will do almost anything for his
friends.
Powers/Skills:
Peter Drake possesses no superhuman powers, but he is
gaining the benefits of an education from the Theodore
Knight Academy. He has shown quite an aptitude for
some forms of martial arts (the harder ones, not the
softer ones), and is quickly surpassing the detective his
father is, which contributes heavily to his inflated sense of smug superiority. Peter does find computers fascinating, but
after his first successful attempt at hacking into the
Batcomputer, his computer time has been severely
limited and monitored.
