"Holiday" - Batman: Arkham Origins

The alter-ego of Alberto Falcone, son of Carmine Falcone and heir to the Falcone Crime Family, "Holiday" is a serial killer known to target and murder high profile and powerful figures in Gotham City's criminal underworld, murdering them on public holidays and leaving behind a signature calling card; the murder weapon and an item with significant ties to the celebration. 

Claiming to be a higher power, he believes he is the change that Gotham organised crime needed, threatening to make the old mob bosses suffer dearly. 

Among those on his list of potential victims is Roman Sionis, aka Black Mask, one of his father's many rivals and the unofficial king of Gotham. Emboldened in his anomonity, he called to threaten Sionis late one night, intimidating the man who had tried to blackmail and control Alberto. 

This call was recorded by Eddie Nashton, the head of the GCPD Cyber Crime Unit, who threatened to use the knowledge that Alberto was "Holiday" as part of his plan to cause chaos in Gotham. Batman would also learn Falcone's secret when the vigilante hacked into Nashton's - aka Enigma - data files, transferring the information to his own database, the Batcomputer, for further analysis.
