Hero= Bruce Wayne
Villian= Scarecrow/ Henri Ducard
Donor= Henri Ducard
Dispatcher= Henri Ducard/Alfred
The Helper= Jim Gordon
The False Hero= Henri Ducard

Young/Old : The young Bruce Wayne and young Rachel Dawes are young while Alfred is old. This is done to make the film appeal to more audiences old and young as they can relate to them.
Rich/Poor:
