DoofQuest- a Disney Villains Victorious CK2-Style Quest

Reader mode
Based on info from the discord we might want to make sure the black ops team is much more martial focused than what we've been talking about previously.

Based on that we want to go with a Technor-led team rather than a Cruella-led one as previously discussed.

Technor, Juniper, Wiley all have pretty good martial and Technor and Wiley are extremely well balanced in other stats. Mezmerella has mediocre martial but a trait and narrative utility (hypnosis) to make her useful on the team.

If Wiley can't be on the black ops team (because council), or even if he can, we should go with a more martial focused recruit to round off the team instead of Wiley (he's an amazing flex unit, for dice explosion chance and ACME related personal actions and toon durability, which makes me want to keep him as a solo unit), and delay recruiting Red Feather by one turn.

If we're planning on recruiting Cruella next, then we don't necessarily need to hire Red Feather in January. We could recruit someone more martial focused and appropriate for the Black Ops team in January and recruit Red Feather afterwards.


Candela seems like the best choice out of what we have so far. A huge martial powerhouse, decent intrigue and diplomacy so as to not be a drain on the team, etc.

This would make the ideal black ops team:
Technor, Juniper, Mezmerella, and Candela.
  1. November/December: Recruit Cruella
  2. January/February: Recruit Candela
  3. March/April: Recruit Red Feather

While I see the merit in these suggestions, I personally don't agree for two reasons:
1) We already have one hero unit who's only working for us for the money (Marco); I'd rather not have another one
2) Paine seems a bit... unstable. And not in the usual, kinda-okay way. It's more like the dangerous and mentally disturbed way

I tend to agree, I was just making sure we knew all our options. Though Payne is less "mentally disturbed" and more "in a constant state of agony", which does works out to him being very violent o e way or the other.

What are we going to advertise? Need it to be something that would get played a lot, either from sheer novelty or from us paying a ton of money to get it out.
Doofrassic Park, perhaps? That way we have a good reason to buy the massive amount of airtime needed to make sure Star sees it.

This is Heinz Doofenshmirtz and you're watching Disney Channel.

Well, not exactly a specific advertisement, but considering the setting we're working with, and the impossibility of getting sued over it...

'The future is bright at Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated.'

(The screen shows a series of shots of Doofania's chaotic architecture under its beautiful smog-filled skies, before focusing on DEI headquarters)

'We're part of your life. We provide your food. We warm your home. We protect your city.'

(A cartoon coyote turns to the camera as he finishes stacking various explosives together.)

"I'm Evil Incorporated!" he beams at the camera, while in the background a spark can be seen moving towards him through a trail of spilled gunpowder.

(Scene changes to a series of renewable energy sources that are shown to help power different parts of the city.)

'Carefully working on projects that are both Green and Evil, to create superior Greevil, and allowing for the creation of clean, dependable energy. Every time you turn something on, Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated is there.'

"I'm Evil Incorporated!" Whispers a teenage girl wearing a beanie, as she carefully moves the hand of a sleeping pharmacist into a glass of water.

(Scene changes to a superhero engaging in an epic clash with a supervillain, only for both of them to go ignored as nearby a group of shabby looking thugs vandalize public property and litter shamelessly.)

'We know the challenge. Things have changed from the old days. Proper evil is hard to find, and even harder to see appreciated.'

(The pharmacist from before, now overseeing the deployment of Mongolian dinosaur riders and flying bots chasing down the troublemakers, turns to face the camera.)

Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, Evil CEO: "Of course. DEI is prepared for the future. With the top scientists...

(A Green haired woman can be seen working on some insect-like robots alongside a Stone-faced girl, the former looking up and giving a thumbs up and a winning smile towards the camera, while the latter ignores it completely.)

Doofenshmirtz: ...the best facilities, and research into new technologies."

(A group of scientists is seen working in a laboratory and paying close attention to some test tubes, which transitions into a public exhibit of a newly revived species, much to the crowd's joy.)

(In the main lobby of DEI headquarters stands a crowd of its employees. From interns to managers, office workers and researchers, steppe warriors and nondescript ninjas, and even animals wearing hats. In front of them the world famous Goofy can be seen, as well as a glimpse of a huge smiling robot dressed up for the occasion, before its face is quickly covered by the DEI logo.)

"A-Hyuk! We're working for an evil tomorrow... today!" Goofy declares proudly, shortly followed by everyone speaking as one.

"We're Evil Incorporated!"

Doofenshmirtz: "We're DEI: Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated. The slogan... well, the slogan remains pending."

"Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporateeeeeeeed~"

As long as we're posting write ins, can we ask the US government to figure out their laws about AI before we start manufacturing AI for anything.

As the people who are likely to receive the most exports from our GLORIOUS AND LEGITIMATE NATION!!! we need to know these things. Otherwise we might have a whole "AI labor is slavery" scandal on our hands on day one.

You can, and in fact we're considering making that a non-write in option, but be aware that due to

A. Sentient robotics being a literally new feild very few people understand

B. The government being very busy right now and

C. Doof's total lack of infrastructure or experience lobbying or playing with public opinion in that way

You should expect things to be a lot more intensive than just a single national action.

The Black Ops team is not limited to martial actions, having more assault a rival actions spelled out is just what we meant by the black ops team unlocking special actions.
 
Candela is part of the B-series of experiments, created by Jumba:

Made in Heaven said:
"No no, is paternizing. I created them!"

Monogram looked at the supervillains. He looked back at Jumba. He spent twelve seconds trying to envision how that would work. "Uhhhhh…"

"You see," Jumba began, beginning the evil scientist monologue Monogram was only too familiar with, "While I was being watched by GalFed nanny police, I am being unable to continue my usual glorious Experiments of chaos and destruction! Would be getting caught pretty fast. But! Pleakly is wanting me to help curing little human diseases and suchlike on Oahu. So I am creating plan. I cured humans of diseases… and a bit extra, hahahahaha! Human DNA is surprisingly springy. So, I am taking strands of former Experiment DNA and recombining them with living test subjects. Result: Totally undetectable ticking time bombs! Appearance almost fully human, but are having weaker versions of my many Experiments just waiting to be utilized. I call them the B-Series, haha! 221-B-" Jumba nodded at the one the public named Nikolai, "is being able to channel electricity through body ranging from minor shock to deadly electrical pulse! 025-B is having power to blind all around them like living flashbang!"

And I just remembered this, but Candella is already Heroballed with the rest of the B-series, so hiring her may be difficult and is likely useless for the purposes of a Heroball:
Made in Heaven said:
The B-Series have banded together and are far less likely to commit independent crimes! They rather like being supervillains, so they're going to keep wreaking havoc across the nation, but they don't seem to have any beef with you.

Yeah, I checked the action for Recruit from Rolodex for the last two turns: Candela's not mentioned in them. So, yeah
 
Wonder if I could write a bit about how Neuron Gnomes are actually useful. When they are seized by inspiration, they can push Doof beyond what he could reasonably accomplish on his own.

Looks like we can have a canon expanation for the +10 XP bonus to rolls.
 
Given all the bew information, honestly, I think we should just Heroball Lizzie into the Black Ops. She is an actual villainous cape and would fit in with the rest of the Heroball. Her most relevant stats are Martial and Learning, which would be good for the Heroball to have, while her acceptable Stewardship would help shore up Juniper and Mez's otherwise subpar score in that area.
