Harvey Dent was once Gotham City’s golden boy, a charismatic and dedicated district attorney with a reputation for being tough on crime.

His unwavering dedication to justice made him a hero to the people of Gotham and a key ally to Bruce Wayne and Batman.However, Harvey’s life took a tragic turn when he was involved in an accident that left one side of his face horrifically scarred. The physical damage was accompanied by a psychological break, giving rise to a darker, more violent personality known as Two-Face. This dual identity manifested in Harvey’s actions, with his moral decisions being dictated by the flip of a coin, a symbol of his fractured psyche.As Two-Face, Harvey became one of Gotham’s most feared and unpredictable villains, engaging in criminal activities that often challenged the very legal system he once sought to protect. His dual nature made him a formidable adversary, as his actions were guided by the whims of fate rather than any consistent logic.Despite his transformation into Two-Face, Harvey Dent occasionally struggles with his inner demons, showing moments of remorse and a desire to reclaim his former self. His tragic fall from grace is a constant reminder of the thin line between heroism and villainy in Gotham City.

Re: Harvey Dent (Gotham Knights TV)

Most of the profile relates more to the comics version than the Gotham Knights series version, which mostly treated him as a non-scarred man struggling with inner demons. He didn't wear any unusual clothing, etc.

He did get his trademark scar in the final episode but didn't actually use the Two-Face alias before the series ended,
