I'm a little hesitant to go for Frost, he'll probably fit in the best and do good work but his straightforward and efficiency focused mannerisms will probably make it easier for people to slip things past him

[X] [Silver] Accept Silver Banshee's deal as is

I see no reason to reject this, they're all very easy requirements and if she's actually any good at singing it would give us a way to break in to a whole new industry

[X] [Drache] Hire Dekan Drache as a full member of LexCorp

I'm not quite sure how we'll get along with Faust but I'm not too worried about him

[X] [Hunt] Accept Helena's deal as is

The only modification I can think of is to suggest that she leave her assassination atempt until the heat dies down but we can also go for her deal

Secondly while I have called Silver Banshee in the text of the quest a "metahuman" before this is potentially misleading information (she looks and acts like a metahuman so Lex thinks she is one) but traditionally Silver Banshee is not a metahuman and instead merely looks like a metahuman from the outside. This does have implications for both her character and her potential uses as a hero unit.

Iirc in at least one version of her character she's a cursed member of an Irish family of magicians

Frost has a decent intrigue score at 12, we could spend an action to train it to a more reliable range. I'm actually not sure whether improving his intrigue or diplomacy would be more preferable for this promotion.

Slept on it and ultimately I prefer Frost over Marie for the position.

A Yuki-onna who will love him forever and ever and who will never let him go would be good for him i think. Help keep him ground, please ignore the chains binding Mr Frost to the ground.

Now, miss... Yuki-onna, was it? Mr. Frost is a valued employee of LexCorp. We're all very glad that he's found someone who suits him so well, but Mr. Frost has obligations to the greater LexCorp family that require him being able to, at minimum, travel to and from his place of work. Now, please, relax. We're not trying to take him from you. If his standard working hours are simply too long apart for you to bear, then we can make accommodations. Mr. Frost is really quite valued. Perhaps we could get you a position working as his assistant? What kinds of job skills do you have? Are you prepared to undergo a security screening, and perhaps sign a magically binding employment contract? If the magical chains of ice are important to you, and you can ensure that they will not be harmful to Mr. Frost's health or productivity, we would also be willing to make appropriate modifications to his office.
 
So vote's looking to be pretty solidly set for now. I'll be closing the vote tomorrow but I think I'll only manage to get the update out by Wednesday. Thank you all for your patience, I'll try to get something out during the interim.

I'd also like to remind people that there is a creative writing contest going on and I encourage people to try their hand at it.

So heads up for those of you who want to vote but haven't yet, I'm going to close the vote in like an hour or so.
