Stephanie Brown was the daughter Arthur and Crystal Brown, born in Gotham City. Arthur Brown, the villain the Cluemaster, was sent away to prison when Stephanie was still an infant. When she learned her father was a supervillain, she decided to spoil his schemes. She created a costume for herself and became the Spoiler, leaving clues to her father's crimes for Batman and Robin. She found herself becoming attracted to Robin and tried to team up with him as his crimefighting partner but Batman warned her to give up on being a hero as she was untrained and could get seriously hurt.
