Every day I curse Injustice for giving us literally the best Suicide Squad lineup in decades just for a quick joke then killing them all
Not joking all these characters are so interesting, distinct and fun with them all having completely different types of engaging motivations and pathos, completely unique looks and power sets and there are so many different types of neuro divergence and mental illness within them you could make such an engaging story about these villains who are all treated as jokes being forced together.

Magpie redesign for my AU 🐦💎
She's Gotham's SECOND best thief. Even though she has access to high-tech gadgets and cybernetic implants, she still loses to Catwoman, with whom she has an one-sided rivalry

It managed two feeble steps before viscous sinew oozed too heavily over charcoal bones. The whole charade burst like a piñata.
Magpie hadn't screamed and panic stole their lights; so for a few choking moments - as they tripped over themselves in the dark - the smell was the worst part.

Magpie - villain info
Margaret Pye, aka Magpie, is a kleptomaniac.
She's been obsessed with shiny things since she was a child, which earned her the nickname "Magpie". She became a curator for Gotham City Museum, but was driven mad with jealous that she'd never possess the antiques herself. She eventually snapped and became Magpie, creating booby-trapped dupes to swap out with the antiques she stole. She's the first villain Batman and Superman fought together.
In most continuities; her nails can turn into claws, she's adept at advanced hand-to-hand combat, is a martial artist, and creates weapons that are (1) explosive, (2) can emit airborne toxins, or (3) shoot razor blades.
The version I'm most familiar with is from Beware the Batman, where she's a split personality of Margaret Sorrow, a receptionist who was the subject of a failed experiment that was meant to remove her kleptomania. The experiment wiped her original memories and caused Braxton and Dr. Ravencroft to give her a new face and name; Cassie. The experiment also gave her the ability to extend her nails into poisonous claws and the inability to feel pain. Her memories weren't actually gone, but hidden in her subconscious. Magpie swore vengeance on Braxton and Dr. Ravencroft, and attempted to get her memories and life back. When Batman reveals her past as Margaret Sorrow, Magpie was unable to recognize her other personality, Cassie, or reconcile with her criminal past and lashes out.
