It was something that got included once traits were included in quest. The inspiration for it is kind of two-fold. First there is the obvious, Helena was a teacher for a time in the comics but there's also the less obvious DCAU inspiration that Helena ended up giving up on revenge against Mandragora because his son, a child, was in the same room indicating that she has something of a soft spot for kids. Being good with kids and having a soft spot for them kind of ended up being what ended up determining that she had that trait.
Damn, I was sleeping on how good Helena was going to be
She'll be especially useful now that we've given Rose some time off
She'll be especially useful now that we've given Rose some time off
Don't forget that even with her poor Diplomacy we could put her on child related actions with Oswald and she'd provide +20 on top of his stat

Fair warning, Helena's trait despite having the same name as Oswald's only provide +13 but also applies more broadly than Oswald's does. I can change the name if this is confusing for people but I kind of wanted to demonstrate a sort of "divergent" trait.
Oh I'm aware, I just wanted to point out that they can be a very good team when dealing with kids

She's also a decent combo with MIck Rory on martial... and the idea of her, Cass, and Jinx working together on some sort of an intrigue action is adorable.
"So... that revenge thing? Go ahead. Take the kids! It'll be a good learning experience for them."
"And this is how you can conceal even a full sniper rifle on your person without giving any visible tells."
Based on what I'm reading, I'll bet that she biases reward selections towards "kid gains stats and/or useful traits" when assigned alongside them, too.

@King crimson Thinking ahead on the assassination help Helena is demanding from us. I was wondering if there is a way we can just give her an Invisibility suit? I don't necessarily want to spend one of our actions training her. She can use her personal action on that, but I wouldn't mind letting her use that tech for future revenge attempts.

I mean I can freely give you a personal action where Helena specifically tries to learn how to use an Invisibility suit but that would require at least a natural 20 on the action. Having the suit without training isn't all that effective in the grand scheme of things as there is a learning curve when it comes to using it and Helena's plenty stealthy on her own. I suppose I could structure the option to assist her with her assassination attempt so that you can specify that you'll give her the suit before she tries again, but I'll also state that giving her just the suit with no training and nothing else will irk Helena a lot.
What I'm ultimately coming down on is "yes you could give her the suit with no training but doing that will not fulfill your obligations and will be way less effective than giving her the suit and training her to use it". That make sense/seem fair?
- Location
- On the Case!
Yeah I wouldn't think of it fulfilling the obligation. Also I was thinking that she would spend an actual action learning how to use it. Like how Carol spends actual actions on plotting against Hal. Not the weak personal actions. That was a mistype on my part.
Sirrocco
Pedantic
Honestly, with her level of intrigue, getting her training in the invisibility suit might well be worth it for its own sake.
And including that in a package with "and here's the full cellphone exploit suite" and maybe some tactical support from other hero units seems like the sort of thing that would really bring home the whole "membership has its privileges" factor of being a LexCorp elite. Coop gains are a good thing, yes?
Oh, and Such a Lust for Revenge would absolutely trigger on her "get training in the invisibility suit" roll.
Is it possible to have more than one hero unit train in that at the same time?

You mean you all weren't thinking of going all out in aiding her finish the job? Seems win/win to me, only concern i have is the Bat interfering. But thats why we arm whover we send with Helena for bear.
Sirrocco
Pedantic
I figure "notable investment" rather than "going all out". Also, I'd rather we give whoever we send up there a healthy helping of deniability, rather than just loading them for bear. For example, I could see sending her up there with Jinx. If I'm remembering/calculating correctly, That's a base of +68 to the intrigue roll, before we add in the invisisuit bonuses... and, delightfully, Jinx can contribute Just Fine to the plan from a distance, while doing nothing overt - doing terrible, terrible things to the luck of the target, and possibly distracting junior bats if necessary. On the other hand, I wouldn't be inclined to, say, send both Jinx and Cass.

Sorry about the constant delays. The unplanned hiatus is a pain but I am working on the update. There's something like 15 different subvotes, of which a lot of them are important and I'm trawling through a lot of notes and posts to make sure that everything is as it should be (for example I checked to make sure that exactly what Diana wants in the hypothetical vigilante sponsorship bill is specifically outlined in the battle for the bill subvote flavor text. I'm not totally happy with how it's brought up in the text as it conveys a bit of a sense of distrust that's not there as it is currently written but I promised to point it out for clarity's sake and I need to move on to other portions even if I don't have it flowing as organically as I'd like it to). Life being hectic on top of the high workload of this time period and this has been what's slipped my schedule the most. I am here and I am both capable of interacting with the thread and am hard at work finishing the next update.
I apologize for the delays but I figured you'd all like a status update to know that the quest will go on in spite of my complete inability to actually meet my own self-set deadlines and that this is by no means dead. Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

@King crimson , is this gonna be the one with the plan subvotes or the line-item subvotes?
It might be better, just this once, to subdivide all the subvotes into more pieces. Because fifteen is unmanageable.

Plan subvotes. I personally prefer not to further subdivide things as people's choice on one option might affect their decision on another (For example how you choose to interact with Talia might affect how you interact with the Brain or the Every Inch subvote could cause you to cut a different deal with Richter etc.). By having all of the subvotes present and accounted for in one post, players can make plans while knowing about potential complications and knock on effects.
On top of that nothing is stopping people from making plans for individual subvotes. Someone could propose a plan for only three subvotes and it would work. The way I work with plan subvotes is that the winning plan obviously gets priorities but if there are any subvotes without representation in the winning plan then the next plan with those parts gets implemented for those parts (if I have subvote A, B, C, D and E and Plans 1,2 and 3 and Plan 1 only covers subvotes A, B and C while Plan 2 covers subvotes A, B, C, and D and Plan 3 covers subvotes D and E then if the results are Plan 2 has the most votes Plan 2 the second most and 3 the third most then the final result will be Plan 1 plus Plan 2's section that covers subvote D plus Plan 3's section that covers subvote E. Does that make sense?). It's a feature people have stopped using but it can be done and it neatly allows people to tackle the vote piecemeal.

So another status update as to how things are going. I'm still working on the update. I just hit a snag where I had to completely revamp the creating costumes subvote and associated systems hence why it's taking me so long. It is coming along well enough and I should be finished with it soon as the IRL complications have been solved for the most part (all flights, birthdays, law school applications and hopefully medical complications should be behind me now). Sorry for all the delays.

Man it feels like its been forever since I did one of these. Still the show will go on and I'll keep on keeping on. Here are the winning votes from last time:
[ ] [Artifact] Carapace Armor
[ ] [Artifact] Holo-Book
[ ] [Hire] Hire Leopold Maas for the case
[ ] [Dekan] Confront Dekan over his behavior
[ ] [Trait] Psychological Defense
[ ] [Leave] Agree to give Rose an entire year of family leave (till turn 32)
[ ] [Castle] Acquire no castles at this point in time
There are a good amount of subvotes here and dear god were some of them a pain to get through. Between having to completely scrap and redesign the costume creation system (the original system was way to clunky and obtuse and would have needlessly flooded the thread with options. The new system is a lot more freeform and is a bit reliant on write-ins for players to get maximum impact from it but I do believe it allows for more freedom of expression and is a lot better overall), having to write the computer creations subvote when I don't really understand computers all that well (I'm worried my own lack of understanding might cause some wonkiness) and the sheer size of this portion of the results and even without the IRL complications this would have been a doozy to get done. This is the biggest plan subvote portion of the results ever and I'm still worried that it's honestly not enough.
I encourage people to point out anything I might have missed and I'll do my best to make corrections as soon as possible. This has been a long time coming and I hope people do enjoy it now that it's finally here.

Every Inch subvote
In a matter of life and death, which all warfare eventually boils down to, every inch matters. An extra inch of plating can stop a bullet or it could make you too slow to avoid a missile. Every detail must be calculated and decided upon ergonomically and efficiently. Carl's improvements to LexCorp tower's defenses are minute with how far along things have come but now it is important to figure out how you wish to allocate Carl's efforts. Every inch matters and the outcome of how you choose to improve your defenses could have a large impact in the long run. Please pick your favorite option from the list below. There is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [Inch] Temporarily reduce the defenses of LexCorp tower for a minor DC drop of 5 and then a minute overall defense increase next turn
[ ] [Inch] Get no improvements to LexCorp tower's defenses but gain a large DC drop of 20 next turn
SCU subvote
The SCU is now armed to the teeth with LexCorp weaponry, exosuits and vehicles. The entire subdivision of the Metropolis Police Department has effectively been coopted and transformed into a force comparable to a small army. Your control over the SCU is virtually unmatched and it is now up to you to decide what exactly you want to do to exploit this new iteration of the SCU. You already have a direct line of communication with the SCU and the ability to access all of their records so it's just a matter of deciding what you feel is best for improving your own position.

Battle for the Bill subvote
As always legislation remains a quagmire mired in bureaucracy through which you must wade in order to get the results you want. It's frustrating having to go through such tedium but the inevitable final result may be well worth it in the end. Eiling has noted that his support will likely be flagging in the next few months as he wishes to use his political capital elsewhere whilst Diana Prince's support is contingent on having the DOMA screen if people can be sponsored as legal superheroes under this law and that the government gets to tax any of the income an individual receives as a sponsored superhero. She's supported you thus far but it's best to be aware why she is aiding you with this push. The law is slowly being closed in upon and it's safe to say that you need to make sure things go your way. You have 96 points to spend however you please on the options below. Note that the more points you put towards something the more likely it is the bill will take shape around that.

Creating Costumes subvote
With the advent of costumed crimefighters it has become increasingly apparent that the imagery invoked by a good costume could be a decisive factor in controlling public opinion. Of course any costumes you do end up creating would have to be practical as well but you're confident that your designs will prove ideal in that regard. As such it's up to you to figure out your optimal design with the costumes you wish to create. You have 74 points to spend however you please on any of the options listed below. Write-ins are available for this subvote but as always all write-ins are subject to QM approval. When making a write-in please list what the costume would be made up of so that I can determine the point value as fairly as possible. Write-ins are strongly encouraged for this subvote.

[ ] [Costume] Pamela Isley
Lana and Mari's designs for a costume for Pamela is all in all fairly simplistic and likely won't be something that she can use whilst she is still in public office. Still it is a potentially useful tool to have if you wish to have Pamela transition to more combat oriented operations later on down the line and might help you in making use of Pamela's powers in a public setting.
- [ ] [Design] Call of the Earth (28 points)
This costume is one which sacrifices all of Pamela's more personable appearance in exchange for making her as intimidating and defended as possible. From the full helmet with a crown of spikes that covers every part of her face, to the glowing red lenses with infrared options to the inbuilt speakers to the gnarled appearance of the armor covering every inch of Pamela's exterior, this is a costume that is meant to intimidate. The costume is focused primarily on protecting Pamela and has no gaps in which her body is exposed, greatly weakening her pheromone capabilities but not in any way hampering her chlorokinetic capabilities. The costume is a touch bulky and difficult to move freely in but at the same time it also is capable of taking the most hits.
- [ ] [Design] Forbidden Fruit (22 points)
This costume is one which isn't focused around combat so much as it is around imagery. The green leg cut gown is bullet proof but the fact that it is shoulderless, and paired with heels and fingerless opera gloves quickly cut away any conception that the costume is optimal in combat. Instead the costume is meant to play on femme fatale and noir imagery in order to enable Pamela's pheromone based powers maximum efficiency while her plants do the fighting for her. The costume does have a utility belt armed with knives, gas capsules, bolas and lockpicks but it isn't really all that combat oriented. The masquerade mask does give it a bit of a unique look and it would set Pamela apart from other costumed superheroes but it isn't the safest option possible.
- [ ] [Design] Classic Poison Ivy (11 points)
There's no need to needlessly complicate things all the time. A green plantlike leotard, some leggings, boots and gloves are all that that are needed for a costume for Pamela. Including collapsible wrist-mounted crossbows does give this costume a unique angle of attack but sometimes it's best to stick to the simple options.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Cassandra Luthor
Cassandra's not about to become a vigilante any time soon but you could create a costume to allow her to begin acting as a proxy of yours. It is risky but it could serve as a productive outlet for Cassandra, keeping her skills sharp whilst still accomplishing your goals. Whatever designs Mari and Lana come up with must focus on hiding her identity and remain easy enough to maneuver in or else you may end up suffering from diminishing returns.
- [ ] [Design] Cyborg Samurai (55 points)
This costume is essentially designed to play on Cassandra's training in combat by mixing in the old and the new to create something wholly unique and terrifying. Between the many heavily armored sections made of metal, the full helm complete with a gas mask and infrared googles, multiple swords including kryptonite blades and detachable cape, this costume focuses on maximizing terror and defense whilst also complimenting Cassandra's talent in swordplay. Whilst the costume is maneuverable it is on the weightier side so her mobility would be somewhat restricted. Still with some hidden augments this suit can be surprisingly fast in linear directions and enables Cassandra to potentially fight other foes head on. The full utility belt, internal signaling system and attached flamethrower make it a potent suit with excellent combat applications even if it is likely to potentially cause some unease at her appearance.
- [ ] [Design] Martial-Artists garb (5 points)
The martial-artists garb is designed to make Cassandra seem more human whilst enabling her to freely move and attack. The domino mask included does hide her identity but the lack of any head or face wear beyond that makes it immediately clear that Cassandra is human. The traditional kung-fu inspired jacket and pants are bullet proof, as well as the shoes, but the protection they provide is relatively minimal. It does allow for complete freedom of movement which would allow Cassandra to fight with the fullest extent of her skills but it offers little beyond that and instead focuses on achieving PR points.
- [ ] [Design] Faceless Shadow (58 points)
The faceless shadow costume is a costume that focuses entirely on stealth and offensive capabilities. The entire outfit is meant to camouflage in darkness and while there is no visible face on the outside of the costume, inside there are a suit of tools to see in the dark and fight effectively. The suit is bullet proof but is only lightly armored in order to keep it as light as possible. Instead the suit is equipped with grappling hooks, claws that double as climbing gear, a hidden gun, a utility belt with sharp and explosive projectiles as well as a first aid kit, smoke and flash bombs and rope, taser gauntlets and an internal air supply. The suit is meant to be highly lethal and is most useful if you intend to let Cassandra take on the identity of a more unscrupulous figure in the world of costumed characters.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Mari McCabe
Mari's power is useful enough that any costumed designed for her can afford to loosen its restriction on armor or weaponry. For Mari a bold and interesting look is something she'd prefer and prioritize over immediate combat applications. Whatever costume she does end up coming up with would require her to be able to move flexibly in them to make full use of her powers but beyond that the costume concepts can run wild.
- [ ] [Design] Armored Tiger (24 points)
The armored tiger costume is meant to be stylish and sleek whilst not compromising on fashion or appearance at all. The sentai-esque suit is a bit different from traditional superhero costumes but the orange and black skintight suit is armored in discreet locations and its tiger helm is stylized enough to look sleek and elegant as opposed to menacing. The suit does contain razor sharp claws and the armoring does make it more defensible so it can be used in combat fairly effectively despite its focus on fasion. The utility belt containing bolas, caltrops, first aid kits, a communicator, a flashlight and lockpicks only adds to the utility of this option.
- [ ] [Design] Kravenesque (7 points)
This costume is certainly a bold option and is more fashion piece than combat gear. The bold fur lined is capable of standing up to combat, but the fact that it's deliberately left open and with no armor beneath it doesn't really act all that incredibly as armor. The pants and boots are sturdy and well made but the bold look is clearly primarily going to make a fashion statement as opposed to a combat one.
- [ ] [Design] Bold Vixen ( 5 points)
This costume is incredibly simple. An orange unitard with a stylized belt and long clawed gloves are all Mari feels she needs to pull off a stylish superhero look. The unitard obviously must stand up to some wear and tear but there are no additional features beyond that.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Jinx
Jinx's magic is interesting to design around as it doesn't often require any physical exertion on her part. As such the design has a lot more room to go for form over function. Obviously her costume ought to imply magic use in some part as it not only serves as a clue for people to latch on to the identity with but it also might cause Jinx to focus on magic more which will help her combat ability. Jinx's own sense of taste will naturally make somethings more complicated as she is a bit picky about clothes, but Lana and Mari could most likely come up with something that would work for her.
- [ ] [Design] Gothic Coven (25 points)
Sometimes it's best to stick to the simple things. A modernization of the traditional witch aesthetic, through the use of a simple black and purple dress, leggings, and arm warmers topped off with a wide brimmed black wool boater hat could work as something both functional and appealing enough to both Jinx and the public to get it to work. The hat is weighted to act as an emergency projectile and a bag of holding filled with numerous gadgets would aid Jinx in ensuring she has whatever she needs. It's simple but it gets the job done.
- [ ] [Design] Vampiresque Tailcoat suit (15 points)
This costume on the other hand is a little more complicated. The tailcoat suit gives an immediately more steampunk aesthetic and the armor worn beneath the outer layers of the ensemble ensure that Jinx is well defended. Its appearance is fairly distinctive and makes Jinx stand out but doesn't do much to connote what her powers are or what role she's playing. It's still to Jinx's taste though so it might be worth acquiring regardless.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Edward Nygma
Edward has always been sartorially selective and searches for styles to suit his self-centered slants and so he'd be more than willing to have a custom costume made provided it meets his own personal tastes. Edward insists on the costume being green and refuses to wear anything that would leave him more exposed than a formal suit.
- [ ] [Design] Riddler Regalia (39 points)
This costume works by playing on Edward's own tastes and moving within them. This costume is little more than a green suit with purple gloves, a domino mask and a long golden cane with a question mark handle. The costume is bullet proof and there are lock picks sequestered within the gloves and knife blades that can be distended from the shoes but the real stand out piece of this costume is the can. The cane can double as a bludgeoning tool, a grappling hook, a taser and can release gas making it an incredibly useful multipurpose tool. It does look very similar to what Nygma wore during his brief tenure as the Riddler making it potentially problematic but this would be the costume Nygma would make the most use out of and potentially be most effective in.
- [ ] [Design] Robed Riddler (7 points)
A different approach would be to move away from the identity of the Riddler. A full body cloak with a hood that obscures his face and a blank white mask that has a built in voice changer and recording function is a simplistic costume but it's one that meets Nygma's design criteria and would be very different from the Riddler's appearance as Batman knows it. Still it's not easy to maneuver or fight in so this might not be the ideal costume to take.

[ ] [Costume] Leonard Snart
Leonard is not a man who cares overmuch for appearances. He's willing to wear a costume for a paycheck but his preference is almost always towards the practical above all else. Still there are a few different looks Mari and Lana could develop for him if you did decide to cause him to act as a costumed individual of some stripe.
- [ ] [Design] Arctic Assault (27 points)
This costume is simple but utilitarian. A blue fur lined parka over white body armor and a visor that hides Leonard's eyes make this ensemble recognizable but not overly different from a soldiers appearance. A bandolier of freeze grenades as well as gun tie the look together and would give Leonard Snart a distinct visual appearance whilst not compromising his identity or combat effectiveness.
- [ ] [Design] The Future is Cold (70 points)
This costume however is a lot more complex. Bright white heavy armor, a full face covering helmet equipped with sonar, infrared vision and a gas mask, and spiked boots as well as an armored full body covering beneath the armor make this costume both durable and intimidating. However the real catch to this suit and its piece de resistance is the fact that it can control multiple drones all at once, each of which is armed either with the blizzard blanket technology, freeze grenades or a more simplistic conventional weapon. Furthermore each drone provides the helmet with video and audio feeds that can be cycled through so even though the costume isn't particularly maneuverable it maintains a massive amount of offensive capabilities and is very good at denying people access to an entire area.

[ ] [Costume] Samuel Scudder
Samuel Scudder is an idiot but one that's more than happy to play hero. As such getting him a flashy costume is something you ought to do if you want to make use of his talents as it'll hopefully draw attention away from his personality. Mari and Lana could come up with a few different looks for Sam even if none of them are particularly subtle.
- [ ] [Design] Full-Mirror Suit (14 points)
The full-mirror suit is a suit designed to look like it's entirely made up of mirrors. With Sam's magical capabilities the suit is actually fairly defensively useful against bullets and beams as any mirror shard can be made into a portal to a pocket dimension and then released back out at a later point in a different direction. The suit is clunky and it can't deal with projectiles the size of cars effectively but it is a useful suit that has surprising combat capability even if it is something of a nightmare designwise.

[ ] [Costume] Caitlin Snow
Caitlin's powers necessitate that any costume designed for her use must be built around interacting with her powers. This means that the costume must hold up under extreme cold and that there must be at least one place for her to vent and draw heat from. However with this complication also comes an opportunity to design a costume that Caitlin can make use of and would be easier for her to wear in her day to day life than what she currently has.
- [ ] [Design] Retracting Full Armor (74 points)
This costume is designed to provide Caitlin with as much armor as possible. It is made of a mesh body stocking which is then covered by a layer of heavy armor. Located between her shoulder blades is a kryptonite battery which generates heat and powers the rest of the costume's function. The palms, facemask, shoulders and soles of the feet on this costume are all capable of retracting in order to allow Caitlin to unleash her powers and properly drain heat from the environment to ensure that the suit doesn't get overloaded with cold one way or another. This suit would be a touch uncomfortable for Caitlin as she'd be almost comparable to a scuba diver who constantly needs to fill up their air tank except for her that would be draining heat from the environment and it wouldn't be comfortable or particularly useful for interacting with others but this costume is pretty much the ideal defensive option for Caitlin that wouldn't result in nasty side effects from her powers.
- [ ] [Design] Cold Kryptonite suit (62 points)
The cold kryptonite suit is a compromise between power and comfort. Gauntlets, boots and a chest piece each with a kryptonite based heating system installed in them make up the bulk of costume and provide it with most of its weight. However Caitlin's head, shoulders and fingers are all exposed so that she may freely use her power and draw heat from the environment around her. This suit is essentially equivalent to walking around with multiple bombs strapped to her but one advantage it does have is that Caitlin can modify the energy being put into the kryptonite in her suit enabling her to ratchet up her power to be even more devastating for short periods of time. This costume is one Caitlin would be comfortable wearing and would let her effectively interact with others
- [ ] [Design] Open-Air Attire (2 points)
This attire is little more than a snow themed swimsuit with a small jacket thrown on top. It maximizes the amount of Caitlin's skin that is exposed to the environment without being indecent and thus gives her power the greatest number of vectors to work from but it is somewhat in power taste and Caitlin would prefer not to resort to such measures unless necessary. Furthermore it provides no defensive utility and so while it would best manage Caitlin's power both in and out of combat, it's not a perfect solution to the matter.

[ ] [Costume] Siobhan McDougal
While Siobhan's transformation directly affects her appearance there is nothing stopping her from wearing clothes over this banshee state. As such she could put on a costume when engaging in serious combat. Siobhan's powers require that her mouth be unobstructed in order to fight at peak efficiency and her regenerative capabilities mean she can forgo armor without sacrificing much defensive utility. Siobhan is willing to wear the costume if it means earning her keep but she'd very much prefer not to be given anything too bright and cheery.
- [ ] [Design] Ghostly Dress (1 point)
This costume is designed to play into Siobhan's transformation and moniker. A tattered white dress isn't much of a costume but it helps to signal even harder that Silver Banshee is a ghost of some kind. Additionally it's easy to replace and while it doesn't offer defensive utility, being replaceable is something that meshes well with Siobhan's tendency to be able to shrug off otherwise fatal wounds and damage.

Bone formula subvote
The bone growth formula has continued to be further refined by Karl Helfern and Dr. Moon and so it has only grown ever more useful. The problems with the formula are by no means solved and there is no doubt that the formula could definitely be further improved but this momentum and improvement shouldn't be overlooked either. You have 29 points to spend as you wish on any of the options listed below. Any points not spent will go towards reducing the DC of repeating this action.

Freeze Grenade subvote
Louise's work on the freeze grenades may have been simplistic but it is enough for you to notice a marked improvement in the freeze grenades capabilities which in turn makes them far more useful as weapons and tools. It's a small thing in the grand scheme of things but at the end of the day a step forward is useful even if it isn't some grand leap for mankind. You have 27 points to spend however you wish on the options listed below. Any points not spent will go towards reducing the DC of repeating this action. As always there is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.

Working with Whale subvote
Tobias Whale is an irksome individual that you had thought well behind you. You briefly worked with him against Intergang before promptly running him out of Metropolis. Whale eventually managed to avoid getting killed by deliberately jailing himself and threatening to release incriminating information through a deadmans switch. Naturally you left him alone as he had been neutralized as a threat and you had more important things to deal with. His escape from Blackgate had been deemed almost irrelevant due to your thorough dismantling of any Metropolis based operations you might've had. However Whale has shown back up in Dakota City and has reestablished his power base there. With LexCorp setting up in the area, Tobias apparently thought it prudent to attempt to work things out diplomatically well in advance in order to ensure that the conflict in Metropolis doesn't repeat over in Dakota City. As such working out what the boundaries of your organizations is going to be will be tricky especially since meeting in person is not at all viable considering the history between LexCorp and Tobias Whale but some accord can be struck and might aid you in getting things done. Please pick as many of the options from the list below as you would like to. Write-ins are available and encouraged for this subvote but as always all subvotes are subject to QM approval. There is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [Whale] Agree to not directly attack Tobias Whale's holdings if he agrees to never directly attack LexCorp's holdings
[ ] [Whale] Agree to not interfere in any capacity with Tobias Whale's criminal operations provided he does not become too publicly visible and he and his associates do not interfere with LexCorp business
[ ] [Whale] Offer to provide Whale with some of LexCorp's less traceable goods and weapons so that he can undercut and outmuscle his competition in Dakota City in exchange for a cut of his profits
[ ] [Whale] Demand Whale pay a portion of his profits to LexCorp as tribute for not immediately going after him and trying to have him assassinated
[ ] [Whale] Offer Whale money in exchange for information on the criminal elements in Dakota City
[ ] [Whale] Offer to covertly transfer money to Whale in exchange for him stealing devices that catch your interest from Alva Industries
[ ] [Whale] Offer to look the other way on any human trafficking Whale might be involved in, in exchange for access to test subjects that won't be missed
[ ] [Whale] Refuse to cooperate with Tobias Whale in any capacity
[ ] [Whale] Refuse to cooperate with Tobias Whale in any capacity and threaten to have him killed if he doesn't leave Dakota City within a year
[ ] [Whale] Write-in
Bargaining with the Brain subvote
The Brain and his Brotherhood of Evil are quite possibly some of the most wanted criminals the world over. They've proven to be clever and powerful and quite possibly a growing representative of what the age of the superhero and supervillain might look like. The Brain's capabilities are unnerving but his attempt to contact you has potential to let you make use of his talents. The Brain is well aware of the potential coming alien invasion and so has offered to assist LexCorp and the US government in exchange for temporary amnesty and a reduction in his and his teams sentences after the fact. He has additionally offered the alternative of working with LexCorp alone in dealing with a potential coming invasion in exchange for providing him an off the books location where he and the Brotherhood of Evil can work in peace. It's certainly a tempting offer but it's one that must be considered carefully. Please feel free to vote for as many of the options in the list below as you would like to. Write-ins are both available and highly encouraged for this subvote but as always are subject to QM approval. As always there is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [Brain] Agree to help the Brain gain temporary amnesty and a reduction of sentence for him and the Brotherhood of Evil in exchange for his aid in dealing with an alien invasion
[ ] [Brain] Agree to provide the Brain and the Brotherhood of Evil an off the books location to work in, in exchange for their aid in dealing with an alien invasion
[ ] [Brain] Make the Brain a counter-offer (please write-in your counter-offer)
[ ] [Brain] Refer the Brain to Wade Eiling if he wishes to strike a deal with the US government
[ ] [Brain] Refuse to work with the Brain at all

[ ] [Hire] Hire Leopold Maas for the case
[ ] [Dekan] Confront Dekan over his behavior
[ ] [Trait] Psychological Defense
[ ] [Leave] Agree to give Rose an entire year of family leave (till turn 32)
[ ] [Castle] Acquire no castles at this point in time
There are a good amount of subvotes here and dear god were some of them a pain to get through. Between having to completely scrap and redesign the costume creation system (the original system was way to clunky and obtuse and would have needlessly flooded the thread with options. The new system is a lot more freeform and is a bit reliant on write-ins for players to get maximum impact from it but I do believe it allows for more freedom of expression and is a lot better overall), having to write the computer creations subvote when I don't really understand computers all that well (I'm worried my own lack of understanding might cause some wonkiness) and the sheer size of this portion of the results and even without the IRL complications this would have been a doozy to get done. This is the biggest plan subvote portion of the results ever and I'm still worried that it's honestly not enough.
I encourage people to point out anything I might have missed and I'll do my best to make corrections as soon as possible. This has been a long time coming and I hope people do enjoy it now that it's finally here.

Every Inch subvote
In a matter of life and death, which all warfare eventually boils down to, every inch matters. An extra inch of plating can stop a bullet or it could make you too slow to avoid a missile. Every detail must be calculated and decided upon ergonomically and efficiently. Carl's improvements to LexCorp tower's defenses are minute with how far along things have come but now it is important to figure out how you wish to allocate Carl's efforts. Every inch matters and the outcome of how you choose to improve your defenses could have a large impact in the long run. Please pick your favorite option from the list below. There is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [Inch] Temporarily reduce the defenses of LexCorp tower for a minor DC drop of 5 and then a minute overall defense increase next turn
[ ] [Inch] Get no improvements to LexCorp tower's defenses but gain a large DC drop of 20 next turn
SCU subvote
The SCU is now armed to the teeth with LexCorp weaponry, exosuits and vehicles. The entire subdivision of the Metropolis Police Department has effectively been coopted and transformed into a force comparable to a small army. Your control over the SCU is virtually unmatched and it is now up to you to decide what exactly you want to do to exploit this new iteration of the SCU. You already have a direct line of communication with the SCU and the ability to access all of their records so it's just a matter of deciding what you feel is best for improving your own position. You have 63 points to spend however you wish on the options below. Any points not spent will go towards reducing the DC on repeating this action. Write-ins are allowed for this subvote but as ever all write-ins are subject to QM approval. As always there is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [SCU] Offer to cybernetically enhance interested officers of the SCU (9 points)
[ ] [SCU] Have interested members of the SCU take the bone growth formula (20 points)

Battle for the Bill subvote
As always legislation remains a quagmire mired in bureaucracy through which you must wade in order to get the results you want. It's frustrating having to go through such tedium but the inevitable final result may be well worth it in the end. Eiling has noted that his support will likely be flagging in the next few months as he wishes to use his political capital elsewhere whilst Diana Prince's support is contingent on having the DOMA screen if people can be sponsored as legal superheroes under this law and that the government gets to tax any of the income an individual receives as a sponsored superhero. She's supported you thus far but it's best to be aware why she is aiding you with this push. The law is slowly being closed in upon and it's safe to say that you need to make sure things go your way. You have 96 points to spend however you please on the options below. Note that the more points you put towards something the more likely it is the bill will take shape around that.

[ ] [Bill] Make it so that superpowered minors are effectively treated as adults when operating as vigilantes

[ ] [Bill] Enable superheroes to kill if they are acting in fear of their lives or the lives of others.
[ ] [Bill] Enable the US government to forcibly draft metahumans if a state of emergency is declared that allows them to conscript them into the military regardless of any other deals or sponsorships
[ ] [Bill] Deny superpowered criminals the ability to become superheroes without first serving a minimum amount of time in prison

[ ] [Bill] Attempt to delay the ratification of the bill so you can have more time to push your agenda

Dealing with Demons subvote
Talia has proven quite eager to arrange a meeting with you to discuss world events and make sure everyone remains on the same page. With the looming threat of an alien invasion and the ever-present evolution of international relationships it might be best to get the League of Shadows on the same page as you.

Creating Costumes subvote
With the advent of costumed crimefighters it has become increasingly apparent that the imagery invoked by a good costume could be a decisive factor in controlling public opinion. Of course any costumes you do end up creating would have to be practical as well but you're confident that your designs will prove ideal in that regard. As such it's up to you to figure out your optimal design with the costumes you wish to create. You have 74 points to spend however you please on any of the options listed below. Write-ins are available for this subvote but as always all write-ins are subject to QM approval. When making a write-in please list what the costume would be made up of so that I can determine the point value as fairly as possible. Write-ins are strongly encouraged for this subvote. Any details not listed in your write-in will be left to my discretion. Any points not spent will go towards reducing the DC of repeating this action again. There is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [Costume] Pamela Isley
Lana and Mari's designs for a costume for Pamela is all in all fairly simplistic and likely won't be something that she can use whilst she is still in public office. Still it is a potentially useful tool to have if you wish to have Pamela transition to more combat oriented operations later on down the line and might help you in making use of Pamela's powers in a public setting.
- [ ] [Design] Call of the Earth (28 points)
This costume is one which sacrifices all of Pamela's more personable appearance in exchange for making her as intimidating and defended as possible. From the full helmet with a crown of spikes that covers every part of her face, to the glowing red lenses with infrared options to the inbuilt speakers to the gnarled appearance of the armor covering every inch of Pamela's exterior, this is a costume that is meant to intimidate. The costume is focused primarily on protecting Pamela and has no gaps in which her body is exposed, greatly weakening her pheromone capabilities but not in any way hampering her chlorokinetic capabilities. The costume is a touch bulky and difficult to move freely in but at the same time it also is capable of taking the most hits.
- [ ] [Design] Forbidden Fruit (22 points)
This costume is one which isn't focused around combat so much as it is around imagery. The green leg cut gown is bullet proof but the fact that it is shoulderless, and paired with heels and fingerless opera gloves quickly cut away any conception that the costume is optimal in combat. Instead the costume is meant to play on femme fatale and noir imagery in order to enable Pamela's pheromone based powers maximum efficiency while her plants do the fighting for her. The costume does have a utility belt armed with knives, gas capsules, bolas and lockpicks but it isn't really all that combat oriented. The masquerade mask does give it a bit of a unique look and it would set Pamela apart from other costumed superheroes but it isn't the safest option possible.
- [ ] [Design] Classic Poison Ivy (11 points)
There's no need to needlessly complicate things all the time. A green plantlike leotard, some leggings, boots and gloves are all that that are needed for a costume for Pamela. Including collapsible wrist-mounted crossbows does give this costume a unique angle of attack but sometimes it's best to stick to the simple options.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Cassandra Luthor
Cassandra's not about to become a vigilante any time soon but you could create a costume to allow her to begin acting as a proxy of yours. It is risky but it could serve as a productive outlet for Cassandra, keeping her skills sharp whilst still accomplishing your goals. Whatever designs Mari and Lana come up with must focus on hiding her identity and remain easy enough to maneuver in or else you may end up suffering from diminishing returns.
- [ ] [Design] Cyborg Samurai (55 points)
This costume is essentially designed to play on Cassandra's training in combat by mixing in the old and the new to create something wholly unique and terrifying. Between the many heavily armored sections made of metal, the full helm complete with a gas mask and infrared googles, multiple swords including kryptonite blades and detachable cape, this costume focuses on maximizing terror and defense whilst also complimenting Cassandra's talent in swordplay. Whilst the costume is maneuverable it is on the weightier side so her mobility would be somewhat restricted. Still with some hidden augments this suit can be surprisingly fast in linear directions and enables Cassandra to potentially fight other foes head on. The full utility belt, internal signaling system and attached flamethrower make it a potent suit with excellent combat applications even if it is likely to potentially cause some unease at her appearance.
- [ ] [Design] Martial-Artists garb (5 points)
The martial-artists garb is designed to make Cassandra seem more human whilst enabling her to freely move and attack. The domino mask included does hide her identity but the lack of any head or face wear beyond that makes it immediately clear that Cassandra is human. The traditional kung-fu inspired jacket and pants are bullet proof, as well as the shoes, but the protection they provide is relatively minimal. It does allow for complete freedom of movement which would allow Cassandra to fight with the fullest extent of her skills but it offers little beyond that and instead focuses on achieving PR points.
- [ ] [Design] Faceless Shadow (58 points)
The faceless shadow costume is a costume that focuses entirely on stealth and offensive capabilities. The entire outfit is meant to camouflage in darkness and while there is no visible face on the outside of the costume, inside there are a suit of tools to see in the dark and fight effectively. The suit is bullet proof but is only lightly armored in order to keep it as light as possible. Instead the suit is equipped with grappling hooks, claws that double as climbing gear, a hidden gun, a utility belt with sharp and explosive projectiles as well as a first aid kit, smoke and flash bombs and rope, taser gauntlets and an internal air supply. The suit is meant to be highly lethal and is most useful if you intend to let Cassandra take on the identity of a more unscrupulous figure in the world of costumed characters.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Mari McCabe
Mari's power is useful enough that any costumed designed for her can afford to loosen its restriction on armor or weaponry. For Mari a bold and interesting look is something she'd prefer and prioritize over immediate combat applications. Whatever costume she does end up coming up with would require her to be able to move flexibly in them to make full use of her powers but beyond that the costume concepts can run wild.
- [ ] [Design] Armored Tiger (24 points)
The armored tiger costume is meant to be stylish and sleek whilst not compromising on fashion or appearance at all. The sentai-esque suit is a bit different from traditional superhero costumes but the orange and black skintight suit is armored in discreet locations and its tiger helm is stylized enough to look sleek and elegant as opposed to menacing. The suit does contain razor sharp claws and the armoring does make it more defensible so it can be used in combat fairly effectively despite its focus on fasion. The utility belt containing bolas, caltrops, first aid kits, a communicator, a flashlight and lockpicks only adds to the utility of this option.
- [ ] [Design] Kravenesque (7 points)
This costume is certainly a bold option and is more fashion piece than combat gear. The bold fur lined is capable of standing up to combat, but the fact that it's deliberately left open and with no armor beneath it doesn't really act all that incredibly as armor. The pants and boots are sturdy and well made but the bold look is clearly primarily going to make a fashion statement as opposed to a combat one.
- [ ] [Design] Bold Vixen ( 5 points)
This costume is incredibly simple. An orange unitard with a stylized belt and long clawed gloves are all Mari feels she needs to pull off a stylish superhero look. The unitard obviously must stand up to some wear and tear but there are no additional features beyond that.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Jinx
Jinx's magic is interesting to design around as it doesn't often require any physical exertion on her part. As such the design has a lot more room to go for form over function. Obviously her costume ought to imply magic use in some part as it not only serves as a clue for people to latch on to the identity with but it also might cause Jinx to focus on magic more which will help her combat ability. Jinx's own sense of taste will naturally make somethings more complicated as she is a bit picky about clothes, but Lana and Mari could most likely come up with something that would work for her.
- [ ] [Design] Gothic Coven (25 points)
Sometimes it's best to stick to the simple things. A modernization of the traditional witch aesthetic, through the use of a simple black and purple dress, leggings, and arm warmers topped off with a wide brimmed black wool boater hat could work as something both functional and appealing enough to both Jinx and the public to get it to work. The hat is weighted to act as an emergency projectile and a bag of holding filled with numerous gadgets would aid Jinx in ensuring she has whatever she needs. It's simple but it gets the job done.
- [ ] [Design] Vampiresque Tailcoat suit (15 points)
This costume on the other hand is a little more complicated. The tailcoat suit gives an immediately more steampunk aesthetic and the armor worn beneath the outer layers of the ensemble ensure that Jinx is well defended. Its appearance is fairly distinctive and makes Jinx stand out but doesn't do much to connote what her powers are or what role she's playing. It's still to Jinx's taste though so it might be worth acquiring regardless.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Edward Nygma
Edward has always been sartorially selective and searches for styles to suit his self-centered slants and so he'd be more than willing to have a custom costume made provided it meets his own personal tastes. Edward insists on the costume being green and refuses to wear anything that would leave him more exposed than a formal suit.
- [ ] [Design] Riddler Regalia (39 points)
This costume works by playing on Edward's own tastes and moving within them. This costume is little more than a green suit with purple gloves, a domino mask and a long golden cane with a question mark handle. The costume is bullet proof and there are lock picks sequestered within the gloves and knife blades that can be distended from the shoes but the real stand out piece of this costume is the can. The cane can double as a bludgeoning tool, a grappling hook, a taser and can release gas making it an incredibly useful multipurpose tool. It does look very similar to what Nygma wore during his brief tenure as the Riddler making it potentially problematic but this would be the costume Nygma would make the most use out of and potentially be most effective in.
- [ ] [Design] Robed Riddler (7 points)
A different approach would be to move away from the identity of the Riddler. A full body cloak with a hood that obscures his face and a blank white mask that has a built in voice changer and recording function is a simplistic costume but it's one that meets Nygma's design criteria and would be very different from the Riddler's appearance as Batman knows it. Still it's not easy to maneuver or fight in so this might not be the ideal costume to take.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Leonard Snart
Leonard is not a man who cares overmuch for appearances. He's willing to wear a costume for a paycheck but his preference is almost always towards the practical above all else. Still there are a few different looks Mari and Lana could develop for him if you did decide to cause him to act as a costumed individual of some stripe.
- [ ] [Design] Arctic Assault (27 points)
This costume is simple but utilitarian. A blue fur lined parka over white body armor and a visor that hides Leonard's eyes make this ensemble recognizable but not overly different from a soldiers appearance. A bandolier of freeze grenades as well as gun tie the look together and would give Leonard Snart a distinct visual appearance whilst not compromising his identity or combat effectiveness.
- [ ] [Design] The Future is Cold (70 points)
This costume however is a lot more complex. Bright white heavy armor, a full face covering helmet equipped with sonar, infrared vision and a gas mask, and spiked boots as well as an armored full body covering beneath the armor make this costume both durable and intimidating. However the real catch to this suit and its piece de resistance is the fact that it can control multiple drones all at once, each of which is armed either with the blizzard blanket technology, freeze grenades or a more simplistic conventional weapon. Furthermore each drone provides the helmet with video and audio feeds that can be cycled through so even though the costume isn't particularly maneuverable it maintains a massive amount of offensive capabilities and is very good at denying people access to an entire area.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Samuel Scudder
Samuel Scudder is an idiot but one that's more than happy to play hero. As such getting him a flashy costume is something you ought to do if you want to make use of his talents as it'll hopefully draw attention away from his personality. Mari and Lana could come up with a few different looks for Sam even if none of them are particularly subtle.
- [ ] [Design] Full-Mirror Suit (14 points)
The full-mirror suit is a suit designed to look like it's entirely made up of mirrors. With Sam's magical capabilities the suit is actually fairly defensively useful against bullets and beams as any mirror shard can be made into a portal to a pocket dimension and then released back out at a later point in a different direction. The suit is clunky and it can't deal with projectiles the size of cars effectively but it is a useful suit that has surprising combat capability even if it is something of a nightmare designwise.
- [ ] [Design] Write-in
[ ] [Costume] Caitlin Snow
Caitlin's powers necessitate that any costume designed for her use must be built around interacting with her powers. This means that the costume must hold up under extreme cold and that there must be at least one place for her to vent and draw heat from. However with this complication also comes an opportunity to design a costume that Caitlin can make use of and would be easier for her to wear in her day to day life than what she currently has.
- [ ] [Design] Retracting Full Armor (74 points)
This costume is designed to provide Caitlin with as much armor as possible. It is made of a mesh body stocking which is then covered by a layer of heavy armor. Located between her shoulder blades is a kryptonite battery which generates heat and powers the rest of the costume's function. The palms, facemask, shoulders and soles of the feet on this costume are all capable of retracting in order to allow Caitlin to unleash her powers and properly drain heat from the environment to ensure that the suit doesn't get overloaded with cold one way or another. This suit would be a touch uncomfortable for Caitlin as she'd be almost comparable to a scuba diver who constantly needs to fill up their air tank except for her that would be draining heat from the environment and it wouldn't be comfortable or particularly useful for interacting with others but this costume is pretty much the ideal defensive option for Caitlin that wouldn't result in nasty side effects from her powers.
- [ ] [Design] Cold Kryptonite suit (62 points)
The cold kryptonite suit is a compromise between power and comfort. Gauntlets, boots and a chest piece each with a kryptonite based heating system installed in them make up the bulk of costume and provide it with most of its weight. However Caitlin's head, shoulders and fingers are all exposed so that she may freely use her power and draw heat from the environment around her. This suit is essentially equivalent to walking around with multiple bombs strapped to her but one advantage it does have is that Caitlin can modify the energy being put into the kryptonite in her suit enabling her to ratchet up her power to be even more devastating for short periods of time. This costume is one Caitlin would be comfortable wearing and would let her effectively interact with others
- [ ] [Design] Open-Air Attire (2 points)
This attire is little more than a snow themed swimsuit with a small jacket thrown on top. It maximizes the amount of Caitlin's skin that is exposed to the environment without being indecent and thus gives her power the greatest number of vectors to work from but it is somewhat in power taste and Caitlin would prefer not to resort to such measures unless necessary. Furthermore it provides no defensive utility and so while it would best manage Caitlin's power both in and out of combat, it's not a perfect solution to the matter.

[ ] [Costume] Siobhan McDougal
While Siobhan's transformation directly affects her appearance there is nothing stopping her from wearing clothes over this banshee state. As such she could put on a costume when engaging in serious combat. Siobhan's powers require that her mouth be unobstructed in order to fight at peak efficiency and her regenerative capabilities mean she can forgo armor without sacrificing much defensive utility. Siobhan is willing to wear the costume if it means earning her keep but she'd very much prefer not to be given anything too bright and cheery.
- [ ] [Design] Ghostly Dress (1 point)
This costume is designed to play into Siobhan's transformation and moniker. A tattered white dress isn't much of a costume but it helps to signal even harder that Silver Banshee is a ghost of some kind. Additionally it's easy to replace and while it doesn't offer defensive utility, being replaceable is something that meshes well with Siobhan's tendency to be able to shrug off otherwise fatal wounds and damage.

Bone formula subvote
The bone growth formula has continued to be further refined by Karl Helfern and Dr. Moon and so it has only grown ever more useful. The problems with the formula are by no means solved and there is no doubt that the formula could definitely be further improved but this momentum and improvement shouldn't be overlooked either. You have 29 points to spend as you wish on any of the options listed below. Any points not spent will go towards reducing the DC of repeating this action.

Freeze Grenade subvote
Louise's work on the freeze grenades may have been simplistic but it is enough for you to notice a marked improvement in the freeze grenades capabilities which in turn makes them far more useful as weapons and tools. It's a small thing in the grand scheme of things but at the end of the day a step forward is useful even if it isn't some grand leap for mankind.

Working with Whale subvote
Tobias Whale is an irksome individual that you had thought well behind you. You briefly worked with him against Intergang before promptly running him out of Metropolis. Whale eventually managed to avoid getting killed by deliberately jailing himself and threatening to release incriminating information through a deadmans switch. Naturally you left him alone as he had been neutralized as a threat and you had more important things to deal with. His escape from Blackgate had been deemed almost irrelevant due to your thorough dismantling of any Metropolis based operations you might've had. However Whale has shown back up in Dakota City and has reestablished his power base there. With LexCorp setting up in the area, Tobias apparently thought it prudent to attempt to work things out diplomatically well in advance in order to ensure that the conflict in Metropolis doesn't repeat over in Dakota City. As such working out what the boundaries of your organizations is going to be will be tricky especially since meeting in person is not at all viable considering the history between LexCorp and Tobias Whale but some accord can be struck and might aid you in getting things done. Please pick as many of the options from the list below as you would like to. Write-ins are available and encouraged for this subvote but as always all subvotes are subject to QM approval. There is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.
[ ] [Whale] Agree to not directly attack Tobias Whale's holdings if he agrees to never directly attack LexCorp's holdings
[ ] [Whale] Agree to not interfere in any capacity with Tobias Whale's criminal operations provided he does not become too publicly visible and he and his associates do not interfere with LexCorp business
[ ] [Whale] Offer to provide Whale with some of LexCorp's less traceable goods and weapons so that he can undercut and outmuscle his competition in Dakota City in exchange for a cut of his profits
[ ] [Whale] Demand Whale pay a portion of his profits to LexCorp as tribute for not immediately going after him and trying to have him assassinated
[ ] [Whale] Offer Whale money in exchange for information on the criminal elements in Dakota City
[ ] [Whale] Offer to covertly transfer money to Whale in exchange for him stealing devices that catch your interest from Alva Industries
[ ] [Whale] Offer to look the other way on any human trafficking Whale might be involved in, in exchange for access to test subjects that won't be missed
[ ] [Whale] Refuse to cooperate with Tobias Whale in any capacity

Bargaining with the Brain subvote
The Brain and his Brotherhood of Evil are quite possibly some of the most wanted criminals the world over. They've proven to be clever and powerful and quite possibly a growing representative of what the age of the superhero and supervillain might look like. The Brain's capabilities are unnerving but his attempt to contact you has potential to let you make use of his talents. The Brain is well aware of the potential coming alien invasion and so has offered to assist LexCorp and the US government in exchange for temporary amnesty and a reduction in his and his teams sentences after the fact. He has additionally offered the alternative of working with LexCorp alone in dealing with a potential coming invasion in exchange for providing him an off the books location where he and the Brotherhood of Evil can work in peace. It's certainly a tempting offer but it's one that must be considered carefully. Please feel free to vote for as many of the options in the list below as you would like to. Write-ins are both available and highly encouraged for this subvote but as always are subject to QM approval. As always there is a 1 hour moratorium on voting.

[ ] [Brain] Agree to provide the Brain and the Brotherhood of Evil an off the books location to work in, in exchange for their aid in dealing with an alien invasion
[ ] [Brain] Make the Brain a counter-offer (please write-in your counter-offer)

[ ] [Brain] Refuse to work with the Brain at all
[ ] [Brain] Write-in

Confusion Will Be My Epitaph

Sorry for taking so long on this, I had a lot of stuff going on IRL that made the unplanned hiatus take way longer than it should've. On the bright side the unplanned hiatus should now finally be over and on a personal note I've gotten into a top 25 law school with potentially a full-ride scholarship so I'll be free to focus more on the quest and less on existential dread about my future. Stuff should be coming out at a much faster pace and I'm happy to be able to get back to the grind with this stuff.
I've decided to extend the creative writing contest to October 30th in order to give time for more entries and I'll be finishing up some of the earned sidestories this week since they've been plotted out for a while (Long Halloween omake purchased by Alex Sol, the "Head of the EPA fanart" story and the "Helmetless Hoplite fanart" story).
