Character History:
[Any pre-history before Young Justice episodes are based off Dick Grayson from the comics.]
Dick Grayson was born and raised on a circus until around age eight or nine. His parents were Mary Grayson and John Grayson. He was the youngest of the flying acrobatic act and was part of the trio, the Flying Graysons. They were the main attraction of the circus (Haly's Circus) when they made their appearance in Gotham. It is at the same time that Bruce Wayne goes to see the performance.
The performance is a disaster. Tony Zucco was demanding the owner to pay him extortion money, which the owner refused to pay. The ropes were sabotaged and Dick watched as his parents plummeted to their death in front of the many inhabitants of Gotham, due to the fact that they performed without a safety net set up. He blames himself for not being able to warn his parents in time about the ropes. Bruce Wayne witnesses his parents death.
Due to his parents no longer being alive, the circus couldn't keep Dick as he was underaged at that time. He was placed at an uncaring juvenile due to social service being full and was beaten up by other kids there until he was placed in an orphanage. He stays at the orphanage until Bruce Wayne adopts him as his ward (this being he wanted to keep his last name as Grayson and he didn't want to replace his father).
Grayson was extremely frustrated by the lack of attention and care that Bruce expressed towards him at first and also the mystery around the death of his parents. He sneaks out of the manor to find out more about what happened. He runs into one of Zucco's associates but Batman comes and saves him. Dick soon finds out that Bruce is Batman and together they find out Zucco's involvement in his parents' death.
Seeing potential in Dick, he offers Dick to fight crime alongside him. Thus the sidekick, Robin is created. Dick is trained in everything Bruce can offer to him that would make him a suitable sidekick. This went on for months until Bruce presented him the final test: to elude him from sunset to sunrise (The Gauntlet). Dick does just this and also even brings a Gotham gangster to justice while avoiding Batman.
Bruce and Dick work as a team for four years before the Young Justice timeline starts.
On the Fourth of July, Roy(Speedy), Wally(Kid Flash), Kaldur'ahm(Aqualad), and Robin are to become official Justice Leaguers and go past their rank as sidekicks.. The Justice League is basically a large team of superheroes who work to protect the world from supervillains and villains alike. On the same day, four different ice villains attack at different spots. Each sidekick and their mentor take them all down before approaching the Justice League base. There, they are told what access they have but are only given vague information before their mentors try to leave to discuss the matter of the ice villains attacking all at once. They are also alerted about a fire at Project Cadmus, in which Batman was suspicious of. Speedy grows angry and argues with the mentors and mentions that the actual base is located in space before quitting and storming out of HQ.
An alert about a more catastrophic problem is alerted and the mentors leave the remaining three sidekicks. While they talk, Robin becomes curious about Project Cadmus and hacks the Justice League computer to get any information about it. The only thing they discover is the location and name. As a team, Aqualad, Kid Flash, and Robin head to Project Cadmus where they save a few scientist and take out the fire.
While looking for any information, Aqualad sees a suspicious figure go through the elevator. Robin finds out that the elevator is an express elevator (in a two story building). Aqualad opens the elevator doors to reveal that the elevator when far underground.
The three snoop around, running into all kinds of strange things that they later find out are called genomorphs. The genomorphs come in different sizes and types and are engineered at the underground facility and are basically created for being weapons. They also find out why the lab is untraceable as it has it's own power source keeping it sound. Whilst downloading computer content from the maindrive, the three are found by Guardian, a Justice League member who are under the mind control of a genomorph. The three escape back to the elevator, but instead of going up, they go down, as Robin finds that there's a project by the name Project Kr. While getting to whatever Project Kr is, they are chased by Guardian and an entourage of genomorphs and they end up locking themselves into the vault.
Seeing that Project Kr is actually Superboy, who is a clone made by Superman's DNA meant to replace Superman if he is to ever go rogue, Robin sets him free. At the same time the genomorphs above him that were giving him an education receive telepathic messages from the ones outside the vault to tell Superboy to attack the three. Superboy subdues them and the three are promptly captured.
When they awake, Desmond, the scientist in charge of Project Cadmus is there. After a brief meeting with his higher ups, he is told to clone and dispose of the three and starts the process of doing so. At the same time Aqualad uses telepathy to contact Superboy about the choices he has and he comes and saves the three and the four make a break for the surface.
While Desmond sends Guardian and the genomorphs off to try and apprehend the four, he returns to his lab to pick up something called Project Blockbuster.
Before the team are able to make it, they are blocked by Desmond, who drinks Project Blockbuster, becoming a huge monster of some kind. The four engage and beat him while also destroying the Project Cadmus building. After the battle, the Justice League members arrive and are told what Superboy is. Batman tells them they are never to do that again and the four retaliate, speaking that they did good work and they will not stop.
Mount Justice is then brought back and is worked on to become the new HQ for the Young Justice team. Red Tornado is assigned to watch over them and Black Canary is their drill instructor for training. Both are Justice League members. They also meet their fifth member, M'Gann( Miss Martian) who is the Martian Manhunter's niece.
At first, they didn't do to well with Miss Martian being on the team when a villain named Twister attacks, and the team ends up losing horribly. However, with the help from Miss Martian, the team are able to take down Twister, starting a bond between the five.
Also, leadership is still shaky at this time. A covert mission that ends with engaging changes this. They end up choosing Aqualad as their leader. Robin, although most experienced, was still young and not ready to lead a team. They are able to destroy, what they found to be a factory making some type of super drug, although Kobra (who is in charge of the factory) get away.
A little bit is known about Robin's personal life is found out as we end up having a fight at Gotham Academy, where Robin goes to school. We know that he was a mathlete honoree.
A serious mission of protecting a scientist is assigned. Speedy, who now goes by Red Arrow had saved her from her imprisonment, although they could not take the thing she was working on. At the same time, the team gets their sixth member, Artemis, who immediately starts butting heads with Kid Flash. The thing that the scientist had been working on are nano machines that can eat and harness information gained by eating the computer systems they are able to get their hands on. The cure to deactivate it is given to Robin and he shuts down the nano machines before they are able to attack Wayne Industries.
Robin and Batman go back to their operations in Gotham while the team continues to do things (although not actual missions).
After a horrible battle with Clayface in which Batman intervenes, the team is given some offtime. Here we see Robin training and having some time with Bruce as father and son.
The next mission they're assigned, the team loses any memories prior to 6 months ago. They end up separating and have to regroup. They're able to put all their memories back together and complete the mission after some difficulty.
Personality:
Robin is what you expect from any thirteen year-old his age. He's immature and quite childish. He likes to play around and toy with his opponents given the opportunity and might have a bit of streak in getting into trouble. Although he takes what he does seriously, he also can't stop himself from enjoying what he does. He knows his limits and what he's capable of along with what his opponents are capable of to be able to make it seem like he takes things less then seriously. Even then though, Robin always intends to complete his missions and jobs fully and would never want to risk failure for messing around. His style of doing things may come off as childish, but it's just the personal charm that he puts into his work.
Despite his childish nature, Dick is a natural around people. He gets along well with his peers, but he also gets along quite well with older/authoritative figures. Probably being instructed/trained and working with Batman so closely has helped in his ability to work and get along with older people.
He's not like Batman though. He's extremely lighthearted and seems to somehow enjoy everything he does. He's usually always smiling in some way or form and can usually be heard laughing when he does an acrobatic feat of some kind or when he disappears off stealthily. The lighthearted attitude was probably due to his upbringing as an acrobat on the circus. Robin also tends to enjoy what he does quite a bit, which helps in his upbeat demeanor while on the job. He takes responsibilities quite gracefully and turns it into more then just work, but something to enjoy.
Even outside of costume, he is rather jovial and likes to poke fun at anyone. He'll even tease and laugh when someone makes mistakes and will make witty remarks. He gets a little bratty when poked back, but he seems to enjoy witty banter between him and his friends. Wally and him are extremely close and Dick tends to act rather brotherly towards him. He often being like the younger-brother type to the others, which is likely due to him being the youngest of the team. That doesn't seem to stop him from getting along or approaching them. He does have the fear that his age might make him less useful to the team. He fears that he might not be up to their standards, regardless of his experience and that he has many traits that makes him quite helpful.
Robin seems to have a fond fascination towards reworking words and basically butchering the English language. He'll make new words by eliminating the prefixes in a word. The words he makes are usually the opposite of the previous word based on the logic that if that word meant something before, then the lack of the prefix makes it the opposite of what it means. The way he uses the new words also seems to be quite incorrect, although Robin probably has full knowledge that his use of the words aren't technically grammatically correct in the first place.
Despite this childish behavior he tends to have and him being the youngest, Robin is one of the smartest on his team. He's a natural tactical thinker, always being able to think on his feet when in battle or even when they're idle. He easily solves complex situations faster then most of his teammates and he's very pragmatic about how to deal with things. He always wants to be ahead of the game to avoid the chance of getting into situations by being behind. He also seems to be comfortable with certain intrusions/privacy. He seemed to have no problem when M'gann retrieving memories by going into his mind, although there were certain limits she wasn't to surpass. This is a sign that Robin trusts his teammates quite a bit. He trusts they won't take advantage of him or do anything that would be against his wishes.
Robin also seems to be a born leader. His experience on the job gives him an edge in understanding situations and missions better, however, due to his age and his first time working alongside a team, quickly has him realize that he still has a lot to work at before he can consider himself the leader of their team. He steps down willingly from leader position to Aqualad, as Aqualad is the eldest of the team and also seems to be the most mature. He also seems to be the most grounded which makes Aqualad a rather good candidate for being the leader. He also has a personality and an air of respect towards others which means it easier to keep the team together. Although Robin steps down, Aqualad is sure that Robin will step up once he is ready to be a leader for the team as he seems to be the most fit for the job.
Although rather open. Robin keeps a lot of personal life to himself, partly because of Batman's instructions. He's unable to talk about anything that deals with Dick Grayson to his team down to the point where he can't even tell them his name or be seen without something obscuring his face or eyes. Wally is the only one who knows his identity outside of the mask as they seem to be very close friends in and out of costume. It also seems that they probably worked closely before becoming an actual team.
Despite being rather happy constantly, he tends to be quite childish and bratty. He easily angers over ridiculous things which leads to snarky or sassy retorts back. He also seems to get upset easily over trivial things, but seems to get over them with a little time or the right words.
He puts a lot of faith in his teammates. Growing up as a trapeze artist where your partners are the only things from keeping you from falling then to working with Batman. Robin trusts his teammates will do their jobs right and also have his back when he might need the help.

[Video]
[You're greeted with a young face. He's got a domino mask on though, but he doesn't look too pleased right now.]
Wow this kind of sucks. Like totally almost whelmed, but not. I mean, yeah, cool place to be I guess except for the teensy, tiny problem that's basically: where the heck am I?
No. I'm being way serious. I really would like to know where I am, because I feel like I've been taken straight from a movie, except I don't live in Kansas, I don't wear red, glittery shoes or own a dog, and there is definitely no yellow brick road.
[A sigh, before he grins broadly.]
What the heck, might as well find out what's up with this place while I'm here.
Well, if any of my teammates are around, you better contact me as soon as possible.
Robin, over and out!
[Feed ends.]
Log/Prose sample:
He's always glad that he has an easy ability to adapt to new situations. Like this one. New surroundings that aren't familiar at all. Strange events that aren't so strange to him with what he's dealt on a daily basis. Being able to adapt to here is easy. He's always been practical.
And why freak out when you can handle things in a more calm manner anyways? And have fun while you're at it? That's exactly how he deals with it. Figure things out and enjoy yourself while you're doing it. No point in moaning and griping about it.
Still, it's not something he wants to be in. He likes familiarity just as much as anyone else. And fun can only interest you for so long before you start missing certain things. Like familiar people. He definitely missed having that around. Like his teammates. He really would like to have them around, even if they're just fooling around here instead of missions. Or the JLA. They're fun to talk to right? Heck, he rather have Alfred lecturing him right now or eating something Alfred cooked because no one can beat Alfred at cooking. Maybe...Maybe he really missed Bruce a lot. Maybe more then a lot. Because you would start missing your father figure a lot if you were stuck in a city, even if it's a really nice city, without your 'father' or friends.
Things aren't quite as fun when you're enjoying it by yourself. There's no one to talk about it to. Well, his new friends could be subjected to it. But it doesn't quite have the same feel as if he told Wally or Roy about it.
Which is why he's figuring out how to get here of course. But, well. It's easier said then done apparently.
He snorts and give an aggravated sigh as he sifts through his notes. Nothing yet. Stupid notes. Oh wait, he wrote them. "I swear the first thing I do when I get back is pig out on Alfred's cooking then never stop talking about this place to everyone." He smiles at that though. That definitely sounds like a good plan worth going through. And it makes sifting through these rather useless notes a little easier on his mind.
He had friends and family to get back to, and he wasn't going to just sit and mope about it.

[You're greeted with a young face. He's got a domino mask on though, but he doesn't look too pleased right now.]
Wow this kind of sucks. Like totally almost whelmed, but not. I mean, yeah, cool place to be I guess except for the teensy, tiny problem that's basically: where the heck am I?
No. I'm being way serious. I really would like to know where I am, because I feel like I've been taken straight from a movie, except I don't live in Kansas, I don't wear red, glittery shoes or own a dog, and there is definitely no yellow brick road.
[A sigh, before he grins broadly.]
What the heck, might as well find out what's up with this place while I'm here.
Well, if any of my teammates are around, you better contact me as soon as possible.
Robin, over and out!
[Feed ends.]
Log/Prose sample:
He's always glad that he has an easy ability to adapt to new situations. Like this one. New surroundings that aren't familiar at all. Strange events that aren't so strange to him with what he's dealt on a daily basis. Being able to adapt to here is easy. He's always been practical.
And why freak out when you can handle things in a more calm manner anyways? And have fun while you're at it? That's exactly how he deals with it. Figure things out and enjoy yourself while you're doing it. No point in moaning and griping about it.
Still, it's not something he wants to be in. He likes familiarity just as much as anyone else. And fun can only interest you for so long before you start missing certain things. Like familiar people. He definitely missed having that around. Like his teammates. He really would like to have them around, even if they're just fooling around here instead of missions. Or the JLA. They're fun to talk to right? Heck, he rather have Alfred lecturing him right now or eating something Alfred cooked because no one can beat Alfred at cooking. Maybe...Maybe he really missed Bruce a lot. Maybe more then a lot. Because you would start missing your father figure a lot if you were stuck in a city, even if it's a really nice city, without your 'father' or friends.
Things aren't quite as fun when you're enjoying it by yourself. There's no one to talk about it to. Well, his new friends could be subjected to it. But it doesn't quite have the same feel as if he told Wally or Roy about it.
Which is why he's figuring out how to get here of course. But, well. It's easier said then done apparently.
He snorts and give an aggravated sigh as he sifts through his notes. Nothing yet. Stupid notes. Oh wait, he wrote them. "I swear the first thing I do when I get back is pig out on Alfred's cooking then never stop talking about this place to everyone." He smiles at that though. That definitely sounds like a good plan worth going through. And it makes sifting through these rather useless notes a little easier on his mind.
He had friends and family to get back to, and he wasn't going to just sit and mope about it.
