Ivy Pepper

Biography
Ivy Pepper was the young red-haired daughter of Alice Pepper and Mario Pepper. She lived in an abusive household in a dilapidated apartment in Gotham City. Ivy's father was a known criminal, but the Pepper household was turned upside down when he was fingered as the primary suspect in the murder of Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne. This was all a set-up instigated by Fish Mooney. Mario tried to escape but was shot by Harvey Bullock who was defending James Gordon. Alice Pepper committed suicide a short time later.

Ivy was deeply scarred emotionally by all of this. She lived on the streets for a while where she befriended Selina Kyle. Selina was very protective of Ivy, but also a little scared of her. Through Selina, Ivy also met Bruce Wayne - the son of the victims that her father had been accused of murdering. For a brief period of time, Ivy and Selina were squatting at the empty apartment of Barbara Kean. They left shortly after Barbara returned to Gotham.
