>>Bruce mortality distinctiveness.
Bruce being a mere human is very important to his character in terms of the wider DCU, and it's played up particularly in Justice League, especially lately, from what I've seen. But there are lots and lots of other non-metahuman heroes (or just barely metahuman, like Dinah) working around him all the time. And they're all Immortals in this 'verse. Anyway, a lot of that 'mere mortal' stuff is just Trio angst - and the fact that whether Bruce is just a mere human or not, the Bat - really isn't. And *he* knows that, though his metahuman friends try and forget sometimes. And there's other stuff, like: becoming the Bat as a traumatic rebirth thing along the lines of First Death. And how much he sees what he does as a choice, and how much it's duty because he's who he is. And other things, that I'll probably never have the skill to actually get into as deep as I want, because I got distracted by pretty people with swords and capes.

>>physically, more of a problem, yeah
I think I'm going to describe Richie's actual appearance as little as possible. Let him look more like whichever one the reader wants him to. If I can get away with that. We'll see.
