Enigma

Fictional character biography

Not much is known about Enigma, but she briefly joined the Teen Titans after Infinite Crisis, but like most of the members during that time period she left. During this period, she was known as the Riddler's Daughter, and seemed to be friends with Duela Dent ("The Jokesters"). She is not as talented at riddling as she would like to be (mostly they are just bad jokes), and she wields a question mark-shaped cane as a weapon.

One Year Later, she is a member of Deathstroke's villainous Titans East, now known as Enigma. During a battle, she says to Dent "Wait'll dear old daddy gets a load of us!", implying that they may be sisters, or at least think they are. Enigma and Duela were later psychologically torturing Raven inside a hall of mirrors. There, she revealed that she joined Titans East as a way of getting her father to accept her.

It is revealed that the Joker's daughter is actually the daughter of the Jokester of Earth 3. She was part of the Riddler family. It has not been revealed if the Riddler's Daughter also came from an alternate Earth.

Notes

• A Pre-Crisis Duela Dent used five different daughter disguises to get the attention of Robin, the Boy Wonder. She attempted to rob a Chinese Restaurant dressed up like a female Riddler, and used question mark-shaped guns that fired rubber bullets. This ruse was discovered when Robin unmasked her.
