I have a story in mind that I have been working on for years now. It stars Batman and some of the Bat-Family. Since I just joined this site, I really have no idea what has been done yet in terms of Bat related stories. I would be forever in debt if someone could point me in the right direction or help me out here.
What's the status of the Robin's? I am referring to Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, and Damien Wayne.
My last question for now is; What's the general rules for creating new villains? My villain that I want to use is an original creation but I wasn't sure if I can even do that on this site.
Any info is greatly appreciated.

Batman is technically under Wachter's claim right now. Though that title may open up in the future. Possibly soon. It's difficult to say when exactly. Officially speaking, the only "Robin" currently in continuity is Jason Todd who appears in the Haven title along with Batwoman, Stephanie Brown, and a few other Gothammites. Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson haven't been firmly established in our overall continuity yet, but there are a few references and assumptions here and there. Other than that you'd be free to do your own storyline. Currently, the rules on original characters, including new villains, is 'no.' That might change in the future as well. Original takes on existing characters, however, is not only allowed but encouraged. Hope that answers your questions, and I hope to see you more on the site!

Thanks for the welcoming. I fully intend on contributing to this site. So maybe I'm reading this wrong but if Bruce Wayne isn't established then who is batman? I might be able to convert my story to a different hero.

I have been looking over the characters in this universe. Some characters I am interested in writing are Static, Crime Syndicate of America, maybe Animal Man. Lots of interesting characters not introduced in this universe yet. Very exciting.

Animal Man is taken by Bkole, I believe. But the other two should be fine and I would read both.

I'm not really sure how to claim characters. Is there a rule or process thread?

Animal Man is claimed. Crime Syndicate of America is the evil mirror universe alternates, right? If so, that would be difficult to claim as an independent title.
Static is still free though.

I would like to write Ultimate Nightwing. I have seen that the character is claimed for the batman: dark knights title. Is that book going to be written? Is Nightwing/Dick Grayson still claimed?

For the moment, all of Wachter's claims are still claimed. This might change in the future. As for whether or not it will actually be published, that's a complicated question involving the only active admin on the site suddenly losing internet for several months.

Ok that works. I didnt see him claimed anywhere so can I claim Tim Drake? Is he featured in anything yet?

Actually, I just had a new vision for my story! Can I do the Ultimate Titans? It would feature Tim Drake AKA Robin, Bilah Asselah AKA Nightrunner, and Virgil Hawkins AKA Static. I would like for the setting to take place at Bludhaven State University. and I dont think that any of that is claimed yet. I see my story as taking place over the length of a school year. In my head I envision this as the Teen Titans mixed with Superbad the movie. Comical yet superhero badassery. (Not sure if thats a word) My only problem is im not sure if its against the rules for me to write a team book yet.
