biography :

TW FOR SUICIDE, MURDER, ADDICTION, SUBSTANCE ABUSE.

kirk canonically struggled with an addiction to the man-bat serum. his overuse of the serum is how fable ended up with those abilities straight up in her dna. she was a toddler the first time she transformed, attacking both her parents in a confused panic. eventually kirk was able to calm the child, but it was a wake up call that things had gone too far. he reached out to batman for help in researching a cure, as the hero had developed the initial reversal serum. but nothing worked, and fable's abilities were deemed untreatable. so training began to help her gain control over the transformation. she took to it far better than either of the langstrom's ever had, showing no signs of the loss of self and hostility that her parents had suffered as a side effect of the serum. kirk, for his part, stayed clean for years. but he could only live vicariously through his child for so long.

fable was 12 the first time her father relapsed. it lasted about a week, ending with francince leaving him and taking their daughter with her. it was this event that would begin a downward spiral for kirk langstrom. another 6 years of sobriety for the sake of visitation, and he found himself turning once more to the man-bat serum. perhaps if fable had been born without the negative side effects, he could push through them if he just tried hard enough.

but kirk had been wrong. the built up anger and self loathing of the last few years were too much, driving him to turn his hatred towards his ex wife. he flew to the apartment francine and fable shared, attacking his ex and killing her in front of their child. it was the scream that exploded from a then 18 year old fable that broke through the haze of anger clouding kirk's mind. seeing what he had done, the man-bat fled the scene and later that night took his own life, leaving his child an orphan.
