Victoria "Vicki" Vale, born Victoria Arkham, was the leader of the Children of Arkham terrorist group.

Early Life
"You want to know how I survived.. all these years? I survived... Because every night, I dreamed of the revenge I'd take on them... and this forsaken city!"

- - Arkham Knight to Batman

Victoria Arkham was born in May 18th, 1980 to the Arkham family in Gotham City, New Jersey. However, her parents were killed by henchmen who worked for Thomas Wayne and Hamilton Hill, as the Arkhams objected the use of Arkham Asylum by Wayne and Hill to illegally get rid of their opponents and enemies. After their deaths, Vicki was adopted by the Vale family and raised Victoria Vale.

Under their care, the girl suffered constant abuse, as their adoptive parents were sadistic. They constantly bullied and antagonized her, going to far as to physically beating her or locking Vicki in torture chamber at their house's basement, which they had already done to other adopted children. She later revealed that the only reason she was able to survive was the constant desire for vengeance on those who made her life and countless others' a mystery: the Waynes and the elite of Gotham.
