Originally, I was going to be Rosalind Franklin.  After some consideration, though, chose to be The Question, alter ego Renee Montoya.  Montoya, originally a no-nonsense homicide detective in Gotham City, was recruited by the original Question and, after his death, took up the faceless mantle.  Unlike the original Question, Montoya struggles with the idea of killing.

Montoya's coat, hat, hair, and mask are chemically treated to react was a specific gas (stored in her belt buckle) and transform into the Question's costume.  Montoya has no powers, relying on an energy pistol and her wits to get out of most situations.  As the Question, the mask covers up most of Montoya's identity; she's not a woman, she's not Renee Montoya.  She's just a female body in a snazzy blue trench coat, hellbent on prying injustice out of the corporate system (unlike other heroes, the Question traditionally goes after corruption, not thievery and assault).  Gender doesn't matter when Montoya gets down to business.  She's also a lesbian, disowned by her strictly religious parents.
