Brother Night is an evil sorcerer and an enemy of Batman and Zatanna.
Description[]
Brother Night has the appearance of a human except that his drawn skin is blue in color and this, together with his long white hair (but black on top), gives him some of the look of a corpse. He is dressed in a smart suit with a tie and carries a cane topped with either a metal knob or a small skull. Though well spoken, his manner is creepy and condescending, but he insists that he is not a criminal and, as though it is his main purpose, only provides others with the supernatural power that they crave. He is vindictive towards those who refuse this support.
He is a practitioner of magic which is done with a wave of his hands. We see him use it to present a vision to Batman of the superhero's devilish potential, and he also enchants part of the 'Bat-bolas' to possess the Batmobile with an evil spirit. He does something similar by possessing Harley Quinn. Although he can shoot blasts from his hands, Brother Night's powers must be limited as he seems to need the support of others like Ember, who appears to act as his bodyguard. Also in combat he can be accompanied by a group of red, female wraiths (called 'ghouls') that swirl in the air above him and are said to "wrack souls". They have wings and a long tail in place of legs.
Somewhere in Gotham City, Brother Night maintains a nightclub that is only frequented by demons (though "goblins" are mentioned), but its location is known to Batman and Zatanna.
