Let's talk about health for a minute.

What is your character's state of health (both physical and mental, if you like)? Have they suffered any serious injuries or illnesses? Were they ever hospitalized for a long period of time? Do they have any health concerns? Canon related responses as well as in game happenings are encouraged for sharing! Tell us of their battle scars!

The left side of Harvey's face, neck/shoulder, and his left hand are horribly scarred! He had acid splashed on him during a trial and it left him burned so severely his skin wasn't able to heal from it. Throughout canon (some in continuity, some not) he's been able to get reconstructive surgery, but he always reverts back to his scarred state somehow or another. Many of the nerves in his scarred areas are dead so he feels less pain on that side, though his hearing is poorer, and his left eye is blind. He's had a lot of injuries throughout canon, though most weren't particularly significant.

Mentally, he obviously struggles with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia with some DID co-morbidity. It's definitely schizophrenia with DID-leanings rather than DID proper; he hears the voice of Two-Face in his head and can converse with him, in his head, and Two-Face is in essence Harvey's rage personified rather than a real person of his own. Harvey also has steadfast delusions and obsessions related to fate, two/doubles/so on, and of course his coin. His coin can trigger one personality's strength over the other, and it's obviously used as a tool to distance himself from direct responsibility or decision-making. His bipolar disorder usually manifests in extreme anger or extreme depression. He's committed or attempted to commit self-harm.

In-game he's been beaten up a few times, been acided in the face by SkrullKate... no big deal. I hope I'm not forgetting anything I'm kind of out of it today??
