Origin
Eli Kaufmann used to be a henchman for the Joker, but the Joker just ignored him and focused on Harley Quinn. This drove Eli insane with jealousy and to top it off Harley, not the Joker, fired him. Eli then went to work for the Penguin, where he was caught stealing and fired again. He then went to work for Two-Face but was fired again for trying to use Dent’s name to get a discount at a bar. He went on to work for Riddler, Fire Fly and Cheshire, and each time he was fired for stealling from the boss or in Cheshire’s case, “Being too creepy”. He finally worked for Mr. Freeze, but after being fired one last time, something snapped in Eli and he became with the one who started his downhill slide, Harley Quinn. Taking up the mantle of Keepsake, Eli would use all his ill-gotten gadgets and weapons to team up with Hugo Strange in attempt to take over Gotham City and destroy Harley.
Creation
