[ ] Investigate inside the company
DC 12 You can never be too paranoid. Investigating inside the company would let you root out spies and figure out if anyone is siphoning money away from where it is supposed to go. With the massive influx of new employees it might be best to see if you need to plug any new leaks within the company itself and ensure everyone is on board.
[ ] Investigate Russia
DC 254 Russia has been recruiting as many talented scientists as they possibly can. It is ominous that they are gearing up for something but if you can find out what it is that the country is trying to make then you can develop a countermeasure of some kind. With Noi having fled to Russia and Ignition having ties to the country it may be worthwhile to look into them.
[ ] Investigate Oolong Island
DC 82 Oolong Island is a mysterious place which hasn't even been confirmed to exist. The Chinese government has actively denied the island's existence. Maybe there is some truth to this rumor despite the evidence to the contrary.
[ ] Bribe Franklin Berkowitz
DC 75 Franklin Berkowitz is a man of principles in stark opposition to Sackett. He will not be easy to bribe but you're sure that enough money can erode most men's principles
[ ] Investigate the DEO
DC 254 The DEO was a shadowy government arm that notoriously deals in extranormal affairs. The organization has recently been disbanded in favor of two new organizations. However, the DEO's old files are still immensely relevant to the goings on of the modern day.
[ ] Investigate the DOMA
DC 83 Diana Prince is now the head of the DOMA which has taken over half of the DEO's operations. You are fairly involved as an ally of Diana Prince but you wouldn't be surprised if the DOMA is still keeping secrets from you. Snooping around could prove valuable
[ ] Investigate ARGUS
DC ??? ARGUS is another organization that is acting as a successor to the DEO only this time you have no idea what this group does. Finding out information on them is critical as they somehow managed to be even more paranoid and secretive than the DEO.
[ ] Investigate Director Bones
DC 44 You have met with the mysterious head of the DEO. While he hasn't revealed much you can now start looking into who exactly he is to try and get a better understanding of the DEO. Director Bones has officially retired as the director of the DEO and now goes by Mister Bones.
[ ] Investigate Diana Prince
DC 58 On the other hand you could also investigate Diana Prince. Diana is the head of the DOMA which has replaced the DEO. You have learned that she is an Amazon and has powers that dwarf anything you have seen so far. Being able to learn more about her could prove very useful to you
[ ] Investigate Amanda Waller
DC 72 Amanda Waller is the person in charge of ARGUS. She has a classified history working with the CIA and has a long and storied career of working with the US government but her actual background is well hidden. Getting a read on her could be vital as not only is she a major player she is Director Bones' successor that you were totally unaware of.
[ ] Further Investigate William Walsh
DC 68? William Walsh is an ex-DEO agent who has gone rogue. He has ties to the mysterious organization H.I.V.E. and was involved in the self-same incident that caused Slade Wilson to leave his family. Perhaps further digging up where he is and what he is up to will reveal more about how things are going
[ ] Attempt to locate Themyscira
DC ??? Alternatively if you don't want to deal with Diana Prince you could try and find the Amazons themselves. You know Themyscira is off the coast of Greece but you are unsure of where specifically and you are aware that there are likely magical safeguards. It would likely be a crapshoot but if it succeeds the result might be well worth it. Circe in particular has shown interest in it so while it might risk more of her attention on you, solving this problem might be well worth it
[ ] Investigate what happened in Fawcett City
DC 102 Something strange happened in Fawcett city involving the DEO and it may be in your best interest to find out what it is. Solving this mystery could lead to some potentially huge rewards. The presence of an individual known as "Captain Marvel" only further makes looking into what happened an interesting proposition
[ ] Investigate what Faulkner hit in his demonstration
DC 21 With all of the hubbub over Quixium very few people have noticed that something was off in the tunnel that Faulkner was digging in. The discrepancy didn't pass you by and you intend to figure out what's going on. After all if something as relatively revolutionary as Quixium is left out in the open then what people can't find is likely even more valuable
[ ] Investigate Haly's Circus
DC 22 C.C. Haly refused a generous offer from you which makes you somewhat suspicious of what might be going on especially considering that the circus is somewhat impoverished right now. Something is not adding up and figuring it out could prove interesting.
[ ] Sabotage Haly's Circus
DC 30 C.C. Haly refused a generous offer from you. Making sure his circus suffers and pays for it can ensure that people know better than to refuse you.
[ ] Bribe the police
DC 26 You could attempt to directly bribe the police to get them directly on your payroll. This method isn't subtle and some of them might blow the whistle on corruption if you engage in this action. But they already more or less belong to you, this will only make it more literal
[ ] Hide evidence of control of the police
DC 99 There is a trail people could follow to figure out you've got control of the police. Muddying the waters and covering your tracks could help ensure that no one can link you to the police. Still you must be careful that your attempts to hide evidence doesn't create more evidence. The trail is already likely buried but you could bury it even further
[ ] Have the police cause inconveniences for a target of your choosing
DC 46 The police in Metropolis are competent and they in essence answer to you. As such if you want to exert a little pressure you are sure you can convince them to make someone's life miserable. After all people can't scheme against you when they are to bust dealing with parking tickets and other various minor offences. With the police being stretched as thin as they currently are the viabiliy of this method of control has dropped off somewhat but it still remains a functional option if a potentially costly one.
[ ] Hire Deathstroke for a job
DC 44 Slade Wilson AKA Deathstroke is one of the deadliest mercenaries on the globe right now and is constantly in high demand. Hiring him for a job will be very expensive but the man boasts an impressive resume and he always gets the job done once he takes it.
[ ] Investigate the history of the League of Shadows
DC 79 A group as powerful as the League of Shadows couldn't have sprung up out of nowhere. By investigating the groups past perhaps you can find more clues as to how they organization works, who Ra's al Ghul really is and who the person who framed you could be.
[ ] Investigate Nanda Parbat
DC 64 Nanda Parbat is a small isolated Tibetian city but if what the assassins said about it is true there is much more about it than meets the eye. You intend on finding out as much as you can if you intend to retaliate against the League of Shadows for the attempt on your life.
[ ] Locate the Sword of Fan
DC 64 The Sword of Fan is a powerful mystical artifact lost somewhere in Micronesia. Supposedly the first emperor of China used it to unify the country under his reign. Such a powerful tool could prove highly effective for LexCorp's goal
[ ] Locate Excalibur
DC ??? Nygma has confirmed that Excalibur exists. Finding it would give you a massive amount of power and prestige. However you are sure that finding such a legendary sword will be quite difficult.
[ ] Locate Clarent
DC ??? Less well known but arguably still incredibly valuable is the sword Clarent. Finding Clarent could prove very useful even if it is just to keep it out of others hands.
[ ] Locate the Night Blade
DC ??? Most intriguingly Nygma found mention of a sword called the Night Blade which has no restrictions on who can wield it. Finding such an object would grant you immense power if significantly less acclaim than the other two swords created by Merlin
[ ] Search for hidden artifacts
DC 134 (DC 60 if Nygma assigned) There are clearly many hidden secrets in the world at large buried in the ancient past. Having someone put the clues together and seeking them out could prove a useful venture
[ ] Search for potential psychics
DC ??? Director Prince has made statements that the attack at Lexpo could have been the work of a psychic. As such it might behoove you to now start looking for psychics in the real world. However tracking down genuine psychics will be fairly difficult although you can at least try and narrow down what is and isn't a psychic
[ ] Attempt to enter Azerath
DC 45 Rebecca has discovered an entire magical pocket dimension on the west coast near Jump City. Arriving into the pocket dimension could give you some very interesting insight as to what is going on there and could enable you to better understand magic. Recent evidence has shown that there is a powerful magical barrier protecting the pocket dimension. This means that it is liable to take a great deal of work in order to properly enter it. Ultimately if there is a barrier in place something must be worth keeping away from the world but charging in without any information could prove dangerous
[ ] Investigate Red Tornado
DC 190 A superpowered android that has been around since the sixties is something definitely worth checking out. Unfortunately there has been little trace of the android on public record. If you can locate it or learn more about it you can use this to revolutionize the whole world.
[ ] Locate T.O. Morrow
DC 40 Alternatively you could track down the androids creator and get your information directly from the source. T.O. Morrow is notably paranoid so you'll have to be careful in how you approach him but if you can get him to work for you it will be a very good day for LexCorp indeed. With the newly recovered data that narrows his potential location down to a few places finding him is now much easier
[ ] Investigate the Blackhawk Squadron
DC 456 There were mentions of the government liaison of the JSA, Blackwing, having been the leader of the Blackhawk squadron. As far as you could tell from your research there was no such unit under this name operating for the allies. Something odd is going on and the mystery might be well worth uncovering
[ ] Investigate Ted Grant
DC 177 Ted Grant is a member of the JSA whose current location is not known. Investigating more into his past could reveal valuable data
[ ] Investigate Theodore Knight
DC 62 Theodore Knight retired from the JSA and moved to Opal City. From there he has worked with the DEO but his address is not listed in any sources you could find. It might be worth looking into the Starman
[ ] Investigate Rex Tyler
DC 295 Rex Tyler has completely and utterly vanished from history and you can find no record of his existence past the year 1967. Something must be going on there and if you can get to the bottom of this mystery you might learn of some very valuable secrets.
[ ] Investigate Charles McNider
DC 365 Investigating the first head of the DEO (and allegedly the most paranoid of the bunch) would be a difficult undertaking but if you do it well you can avoid arousing the DEO's suspicion and learn more about both them and the JSA.
[ ] Investigate Adeline Kane and the middle child
DC 96 Adeline Kane has retreated entirely from public life and she took her mute son with her. It is unknown if Joseph Kane has any powers but you want to get to the bottom of this mystery. Investigating what is going on there could give you some critical insight as to what's going on.
[ ] Investigate Grant Wilson
DC ??? Investigating Grant Wilson would help you understand what kind of person he is making it easier to recruit him and it would allow you to gain a little more knowledge of what his powers are
[ ] Locate Silver Monkey
DC 37 Silver Monkey the assassin who tried to kill you at Wayne's party has escaped custody and is currently an unknown variable. Locating him would help solve any potential questions surrounding what the assassin is up to.
[ ] Locate Murmur
DC 16 Murmur has recovered from his injuries at Katherine's hands and has now escaped Blackgate Penitentiary. You could find some use for the individual if you can direct him and you don't want the maniac to cause you problems later on down the line.
[ ] Investigate the Seven Men of Death
DC 101 This group of elite assassins has a rotating membership. The current seven members of the group have been outed by Lois Lane's article. Figuring out more about them could help you deal with them as you'll most likely come into contact with them.
[ ] Investigate David Cain
DC 54 David Cain is one of the high ranking League of Shadows members who was outed by Lois Lane's article. The man shot the agents who came after him but was eventually forced to abandon his daughter. David Cain is a skilled assassin who has apparently been looking for a way to create the perfect warrior. Finding out more about him could be beneficial.
[ ] Investigate David Cain's other children
DC 74 it is likely that David Cain had other children in his attempts to create a super assassin. Finding them could give you more useful pawns. None of them are likely to be able to match up to what Cassandra has become but gaining access to even inferior versions could prove useful in its own right.
[ ] Investigate Lady Shiva
DC 28 Lady Shiva was another member of the League of Shadows outed by Lois Lane's article. Unlike the other members she didn't run once outed with the government hunting her down. Instead Shiva promptly murdered absolutely everyone who came after her with ruthless efficiency before slinking off into some hiding place. People have caught her on video extensively and her martial arts skills are terrifying. Perhaps by researching her you could find some kind of weakness to exploit?
[ ] Investigate the Armless and Legless Master
DC 35 This pair of martial artists were noted by Talia to be quite talented individuals who could potentially teach Cassandra a thing or two. Finding out more about them could give you another asset to use.
[ ] Investigate Natas
DC 48 Natas is a brutal mercenary who specializes in transforming people into deadly warriors. It is unknown what he wants but he can train individuals to rival or exceed the League of Shadows. Learning more about him could help teach you his methodology.
[ ] Investigate the Seven Deadly Brothers
DC 123 Of all of the martial artists Talia mentioned the Seven Deadly Brothers are both the most and the least mythical. The Seven Deadly Brothers are rumored to be supernaturally powerful. Unfortunately they are also in the employ of the Chinese government. Still learning more about them could help ensure that you know what you are dealing with.
[ ] Investigate Richard Dragon
DC 77 Richard Dragon is an incredibly secretive individual. The wandering warrior is considered one of the best martial artists on the planet, able to go toe to toe with Lady Shiva and even win. However his nomadic lifestyle makes him exceptionally hard to find and his independent streak makes him hard to recruit. With a little digging though you are sure you can find a way to convince him to stay in your employ.
[ ] Investigate Baron Delamb
DC 236 Baron Delamb has apparently been engaging in human experimentation. You never actually met the man despite having been thoroughly aware of who he was. Perhaps further investigation is warranted to see what dark secrets you can unearth. It was easy enough to connect him to having harbored Whisper A'Daire so the projects he is keeping secret surely could potentially be even more damning to his character
[ ] Locate Bruno Manneheim
DC ??? Following the attack on Metropolis Bruno Manneheim has vanished. Finding out where he has gone could allow you to prevent a repeat attack from occurring later on down the line
[ ] Locate Macho Gato
DC ??? The other major escapee following the attack, Macho Gato was a complete unknown. Finding out who he is and where he went could help shut down Intergang once and for all
[ ] Locate Kobra
DC 64 Kobra is not too well known to you. Still hunting them down after you find them seems like a good way to avenge the loss of Karl's son.
[ ] Locate Thaddeus Romero Hoskins
DC 26 Thaddeus Romero Hoskins is a brilliant individual but one who reacted very poorly to you commenting on his work. Figuring out what he is up to could prevent some unnecessary surprises from cropping up.
[ ] Locate Tobias Whale's blackmail
DC ??? If Tobias Whale has various deadman switches to disseminate the information he has threatened you with then he must be keeping it off of his person. Finding where he is keeping this and removing any copies of this information from play will help defuse a potential liability that could blow up in your face
[ ] Compile a blackmail file
DC ??? (dependent on hero unit selected for this, Mercy DC 342, Pamela DC 31, Katherine DC 23, Rebecca DC 50, Roxanne DC 152, Carol Ferris DC 48, Karl Helfern DC 26, Mari McCabe DC 96, Lois Lane 379, Lucy Lane DC 60, Talia al Ghul DC 413, Bruce Wayne DC ???, Sapphire Stagg DC 19, General Eiling DC 2. If any hero unit discovers you have a blackmail file on them their trust in you will be severely damaged and they will do their best to destroy the file) People often say things that they really shouldn't over the phone. By compiling the best bits of the various things people say over the phone you can create a blackmail file in case you need to coerce someone to do your bidding. Granted people don't like getting blackmailed so if it is discovered you are doing this people might come to distrust and despise you but you can see the contingency as well worth having earned a little scorn.
[ ] Install tracking devices in the clothes you are selling
DC 84 Currently McCabe Fashions and LL Fashions can sell a ton of products. Being able to covertly sneak in a few tracking devices to some of your products will allow you to more effectively monitor people. This is something you'd have to hide from both Mari and Lana if you don't want complaints but it could prove quite the opportunity
[ ] Hide the Sword of Beowulf
DC 3 The current hiding place for the Sword of Beowulf is incredibly underwhelming right now. With a little more dedication you are sure you can find a better hiding spot for an artifact like this.
[ ] Terminate an employee
DC ??? (Dependent on the hero unit you attempt to terminate) Unfortunately sometimes people no longer manage to remain worthwhile investments. LexCorp refuses to commit to the sunk-cost fallacy. As such dead weight must be removed from the company. You intend to give your no longer useful employee their final severance package.
[ ] Steal Art
DC 32 You are a man of wealth and taste. However art is subjective and many people would deliberately raise the price on you knowing that you are rich. Stealing art though, enables you to acquire interesting pieces for your collection without paying a cent. If you get caught though things might not be so great.
[ ] Sabotage a rival company
DC 3 for S.T.A.R. Labs DC 112 for Wayne Enterprises, DC 26 for covertly tarnishing Wayne Enterprises name, DC 129 for Kord Communications, DC 64 for Alva Technologies, DC 62 for Queen Industries. Everything is fair play in the corporate world and making sure your rivals can't compete with you through unsavory means is fair play. You're sure everyone else would like to do the same to you. You're just so much better at it than them.
[ ] Purchase controlling stock from a rival company
177 for Wayne Enterprises, 99 for Alva Technologies, 68 for Queen Industries, 52 for S.T.A.R. Labs, 131 for Big Belly Burger. There is no need to sabotage your competition if you simply buy them out. Using your vast wealth you can buy up these companies and turn them to your own ends. It is a fitting end to your opposition for them to only make you stronger.
[ ] Commit tax fraud
DC 20 A relatively easy way to make money is to commit tax fraud. Sure it's illegal and it might get the IRS to investigate you but it is a very low effort way to make a lot of money for yourself
[ ] Create a cult of personality
DC 1 Creating a cult of personality around yourself is something you can do to heavily indoctrinate those working under you to comply with your every wish and whim. However those outside of the cult are likely to view you far more suspiciously afterwards.
[ ] Conduct a False Flag operation
DC 70 Serial Peacemaking is an effective tool to use that has now been bloodied by the conflict in Santa Prisca. Now if you so desire you can have them conduct false flag operations to increase the amount of chaos in a place to more effectively exploit a situation as everyone else is misled by your hidden movements.
[ ] Bribe politicians
DC 5 There is a joke that states that the word politics is derived from the latin prefix poly meaning many and ticks a type of bloodsucking insect. Most politicians can be swayed by generous "campaign donations" to write policy favoring you. However there is no guarantee that the motion would pass and it wouldn't be a long term investment since politicians are often facing reelection and so shift their stances to match what they think will keep them in office. They'd need constant reminders that you not the people are what determines their policy making
[ ] Improve surveillance satellite network
DC 63 Your surveillance satellite network is already fairly extensive. By increasing the amount of satellite's you have in the air and varying their focuses you can gain a more complete picture of more things all at once.
[ ] Infiltrate the government
DC 46 The government is one of LexCorp's biggest business partners but they refuse to share much of their intel with you as it is "need to know". Plant spies in their organizations and bugs in their products. That way you'll know exactly what the US government wants to keep in the dark.
[ ] Infiltrate Santa Prisca
DC ??? With all the chaos going on right now it would be quite easy to slip an agent into the war torn country to make sure that Vincent Edge doesn't make it out alive again. You've learned from your infiltration of Markovia and thus now know how to better tackle this kind of operation.
[ ] Create a worldwide spy network
DC 64 LexCorp is rather in the dark about the internal affairs of countries outside of the US. While you do get the big news you still are unaware of what lies in the dark. This will not stand. Establishing an international spy network will help fill you in on details you otherwise wouldn't have been aware of
[ ] Investigate the vanishing Lex-Phone
DC 36 One of your Lex-Phones in Central City has been sending bizarre signals as apparently it vanishes from one side of the city to the next. Investigating this strange phenomena could yield some pretty interesting results.
[ ] Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
DC 55 Hiring a skilled mercenary team will allow you to carry out covert operations more easily. However they will charge more money the harder the job is and you don't expect mercenaries to stick around to get the job done. Hiring mercenaries does give you a level of plausible deniability when conducting these covert operations
[ ] Run background checks
DC ??? (DC 10 for Pamela Isley, DC 12 for Lois and Lucy Lane, DC 32 for Ivo, DC 16 for Katherine Kane) Information is important. Not knowing your employee's history almost cost you in your interview with Lois. While it didn't this time you want to avoid making the same mistake twice. A simple background check can verify if a person is on the level.
[ ] Investigate Intergang
DC 48 The reveal of Intergang having ties to actual aliens was certainly a surprise. Investigating into them further should ensure that they have no more hidden surprises for you. You would hate to get into even more of a mess than what they have already caused for you
[ ] Investigate the Ultra-Humanite
DC ??? Just who the Ultra-Humanite is, is an utter unknown but his technology is absolutely miraculous. Figuring out what his past is beyond what Lois Lane dug up could prove enlightening and if you somehow manage to parse just who the Humanite is or find schematics for his devices you could very easily change the world with that technology at your disposal
[ ] Investigate Avruskin
DC ??? You don't know who this Avruskin is but this man is Ignition's superior and operates independent of Intergang. While you know he is a Polkolistan national you don't know much more than that. Finding out just what kind of man is pulling Ignition's strings could be the difference between life and death. Considering what he is scheming and that his machinations have affected the whole world it would pay to be aware of your enemies
[ ] Steal Clement Tyme's body of work
DC 27 Dr. Tyme has disappeared in the chaos of the events in Gotham. All that being said his comments to Talia were interesting and potentially worth following up on. While the man himself likely won't be found for a while his research could point you in the right direction
[ ] Hack into government records
DC ??? The US government clearly has a lot of interesting data they are hiding from the public. Perhaps you ought to figure out just what they are up to
[ ] Hack into a rival companies records
DC ??? Likewise it is never good to underestimate your opponents. Breaking into their records will enable you to gain some valuable information to give you a leg up on the competition
[ ] Further Improve cyber security defenses
DC 100 (DC 52 if Felicity or Nygma are assigned to the action) LexCorp's cyber-security has been vastly improved from what it was before to the point where it is bar none the greatest cyber security on the planet. That being said it could be pushed even farther. Brainiac's existence as an artificial intellegence demonstrates that computers can be pushed even further than what is currently known and that you can undoubtedly find out even more
[ ] Develop an algorithm to track the Batman
DC 94 The Batman is a persistent factor in Gotham. Figuring out who he is and where he comes from via an algorithm that will monitor all of his movements in Gotham might prove useful
[ ] Develop an algorithm to track Batgirl
DC 92 Batgirl is a brand new vigilante in Gotham. However by tracking her and figuring out who she is you might find out more on Batman. After all a chain is only as strong as its weakest link and this might boil over in such a way that you can find out the caped crusader's secrets through his imitator. Batgirl has proven surprisingly difficult to find however and it might not be in your best interest to get hung up over it if it continues to not succeed.
[ ] Develop an algorithm to track Superman
DC ??? Figuring out where Superman comes and goes will prove immensely useful in figuring out how to overcome him. You can't trust a figure with so many unknowns and sadly those unknowns make it so incredibly hard to make this kind of algorithm as you simply don't have enough information to be accurate
[ ] Investigate Superman
DC ??? Just who and what the so-called Superman is might just be some of the most important questions you'll now have to deal with. You don't know enough about what he is going for to truly get an assessment but once you understand him you'll surely be able to overcome him
[ ] Investigate the Green Arrow
DC ??? A mysterious individual is operating as a vigilante in Star City. Searching out who he is and what he is doing might give you a better idea of the shifting landscape of the world at large
[ ] Continue undermining Hal Jordan
DC 34 Hal Jordan AKA the Green Lantern is another so called superhero who has shown up. In you deal with Carol you promised to do your level best to undermine him in order to help her achieve her vengeance. While the timing might not be perfect, engaging in this will earn you Carol's approval and will certainly start to cause problems for the supposed superhero. Hal Jordan may have left the planet but that is no reason not to continue to harass and undermine him.
[ ] Further Investigate Kobra's movements
DC 42? Kobra has been active throughout the Middle East which is more than a little odd for a group that apparently has historical roots in India. Looking into what is going on with their movements could help you to gain a more concrete objective of how the cult intends to achieve its goals. Queen Bee's latest information has increased the urgency with which you might want to get on this
[ ] Investigate Kobra in India
DC 133 Knowing the historical background of Kobra has enabled you to try and hunt down the groups source by searching for them in India. Admittedly it could get complicated searching for the cult and its history in a foreign country you have no ties to but you are confident that you can make due with your resources to clean up this mess.
[ ] Investigate the KGBeast
DC 119 Something about the individual who attempted to kill you at Bruce Wayne's party doesn't quite sit right with you. Figuring out just what the history and motivations behind this ex-soviet operative might be worth digging into.
[ ] Investigate Matches Malone
DC ??? Something about Matches Malone just doesn't sit right with you. Digging more into who he is could help you figure things out further
[ ] Investigate Project Atomic Skull
DC 86 Albert Michael's pet project has proven to be immensely dangerous considering that a failed version of it managed to create Parasite by accident. Investigating this project and then potentially taking it for yourself might be the best course of action for you.
[ ] Inform the French government about the Brotherhood of Wvil
DC 102 The French government probably doesn't appreciate having bizarre murderers in its country. Sure it might be a bit tricky to convince the government to act on your information without tipping off the Brain and his Brotherhood that you've indirectly betrayed them but the ensuing results could give you a better gauge on the individuals in question
[ ] Surreptitiously collect lost Intergang tech
DC 302 With the US Government having not picked up all of the technology lost in the attack on Metropolis now might be the best time to surreptitiously collect some for yourself. This would have to be kept secret from both the public and the government and you'd be competing with numerous potential unknowns but the appeal of alien technology might be well worth it
[ ] Hide something in the Derelict Middleton Warehouses
DC ??? You can choose to hide things inside of this location as you are sure nobody is looking for anything in there. However depending on what exactly you choose to hide it may attract more attention from people
[ ] Improve the Dark Side Bar's hidden areas
DC 17 The Dark Side Bar is a small bar in New York that you could easily expand and use as a front for various illegal operations and meeting with criminals. Expanding it is immensely easy as it already has access to a hidden tunnel system and a few backrooms.
[ ] Attempt to Locate Atlantis
DC ??? You have a bit better of an idea where Atlantis might be as well as knowledge of the other undersea kingdoms. Figuring out just where each kingdom is located will give you an advantage in any attempt at dealing with the Atlanteans
[ ] Create surgically enhanced body doubles
DC ??? (DC 65 if Dr. Moon is assigned to this action) The idea of a body double is not exactly a new or innovative one. That being said there is only so far it can go when working with people's natural states. However Dr. Moon's breakthroughs could enable him to surgically alter people to look like famous people. Naturally there are a whole host of application to this idea that you can't wait to make use of
[ ] Track down Clayface
DC 55 Basil Karlo AKA Clayface made a surprise appearance in California interfering with the purchase of the remnants of Stagg Enterprises. While it's unlikely you can get any samples of Renuyu from Karlo it is likely that catching up to him and tracking him down can get you something even if it is just information
[ ] Investigate Pagliacci Brighella
DC ??? Pagliacci Brighella was a complete unknown in the bidding battle for the remnants of Stagg Enterprises. Whilst he didn't have the money to match any of the corporations that came to buy things he did repeatedly drive up prices to annoy others. Something about the man rubs you the wrong way even beyond the fact that his body was nearly entirely obscured from view through either clothing or bandages. Figuring out his game might help you to understand what is going on.
[ ] Investigate Lourdes Lucero
DC ??? Lourdes Lucero is an enigma as of now and a potentially dangerous one at that. As such it might be in your best interest to make sure that everything is on the up and up with her
[ ] Kidnap Scott Lowe
DC 16 Scott Lowe is an unwanted unloved orphan. Kidnapping him for experimentation or to make use of him would likely prove no problem at all. While it would attract a lot of negative attention if you get caught it likely
[ ] Find Whirlicane
DC 29 Whirlicane is a metahuman crook who briefly went toe to toe with Superman before swiftly getting rounded up by LexCorp forces. The man is not particularly powerful or intelligent but he's just smart enough to recognize when he's outmatched and has shown a tendency to cut and run while racking up damage if he thinks he's about to be caught. Finding him isn't liable to be too difficult but it ought to be handled at least somewhat carefully as he almost certainly will put up a fight
[ ] Find Toyman
DC ??? Toyman is likely the most slippery supervillain to have recently escaped prison. After all he's the only one to have broken out of prison multiple times and he's proven to be adept enough at hiding just long enough to begin enacting some kind of scheme. Additionally due to his reliance on robotic minions and machines Toyman is the most difficult to pinpoint an exact location for as his appearance isn't abnormal and his methods don't pinpoint an exact location he's operating from. He'd likely be a challenge to find but it could be quite the feather in your cap if you collect him before he can wreak havoc
[ ] Begin further training saboteurs in the use of Alan Morris' stealth suit
DC 32 Alan Morris proved to be unwilling to work with you directly but you have received more than a few of his invisibility suits to make use of. Naturally there are quite a few less than legal things you could do with such tools at your disposal. Before you do such a thing though you would have to train your minions to use the suits. There's no sense in wasting your acquisitions but with a bit of investment this could turn out to be quite the payday
[ ] Set up an incident to make Ultra-Violet seem more impressive
DC 11 It would be child's play to set up an incident of some kind to make Carol look better to the public. The problem is you'd have to keep it secret and if someone were to interfere in how things played out it could potentially prove quite problematic especially since you are guaranteed to almost certainly leave some kind of trail for a sufficiently observant person to pick up on
[ ] Use your controlling share of Keystone Motors to force the company to do something
DC 0 (auto-success) While it might engender some dislike you are in a position where you can dictate to Keystone Motors what they have to do. As such while it likely won't win you any friends if you want something from them then you can get it.
[ ] Investigate H.I.V.E.
DC ??? This shady underground organization is currently a massive unknown even if all you've found so far is evidence that they took a large amount of resources from the DEO right before it split into the DOMA and ARGUS. Nobody else seems to be aware of this so it might be best to figure out just what is going on here without tipping off anyone quite yet
[ ] Assassinate William Walsh
DC 43? You know that William Walsh has ties to both H.I.V.E., the former DEO and Slade Wilson. Perhaps it is for the best if you permanently remove him from play to ensure that he cannot interfere in things further. You currently know where he is operating out of and if he's given enough time, William Walsh might escape to a different location without you being aware of it
[ ] Kidnap William Walsh
DC 50? William Walsh is also a potential source of information. Grabbing him now while you know that he is in Uganda might serve your best interests by giving you an easy source of information on a wide variety of things.
[ ] Search for and collect the remaining pieces of the Murder Machine
DC 115? The Murder Machine is a supposed legendary weapon developed by Nazi Germany during its death throes in WW2. You'd always assumed it wasn't real but Simon Stagg evidently had a map to where the pieces were located. You could collect the pieces and then use this supposed Murder Machine to make new scientific insights You've already collected 19 of the 88 pieces having more might prove beneficial in the long run
[ ] Investigate Charneltown
DC 19 Charneltown is an underground settlement located in Virginia. The inhabitants of the city are notoriously hostile to outsiders but rumor has it that the people living there have discovered a source of infinite power. Simon Stagg has been looking into the place's location and has significantly narrowed the search for you. As such you can now look into Charneltown and their supposed infinite energy source and with a little investigation, figure out how best to make use of them
[ ] Look into elementals
DC ??? The legend of Algon suggests that there were elemental shapeshifters at one point in human history. Normally you'd be skeptical of such a thing but considering Simon Stagg seemed to believe such a thing could exist and you've been shown things you thought were impossible before, it might be best to look into such a lead now while the rest of the world remains unaware.
[ ] Look into mentions of the Stalker in history
DC 4 During Rebecca's trip to the Oblivion bar she heard of an individual known as the Stalker who is apparently immortal. Looking into who he is and how he obtained his immortality might prove worthwhile especially if this investigation can turn up paydirt.
[ ] Investigate Gazook
DC ??? Gazook was a creature that looked like an imp but was very much not a demon and Detective Chimp appeared to be stumped as to what he actually was even throwing out that the annoying creature was potentially a god in disguise. It's unlikely that Gazook is a god but it might be best to double check just in case.
[ ] Attempt to locate Black Manta
DC ??? Black Manta is a notorious terrorist who has earned the ire of all of the undersea kingdoms. As such information on him, such as where he is currently located, is valuable whether or not you are attempting to side with him or against him
[ ] Attempt to undermine Atlantis' political endeavors
DC 34 It would probably be best to make sure none of this could be traced back to you but you could attempt to undercut Atlantis' political ambitions in order to make them more desperate and hopefully by extension more compliant. It could backfire hard but war is simply another business for you at the end of the day
[ ] Further investigate the Lydecker family as well as the Hardwicke's and Lawford's
DC ??? You've already uncovered a good deal of information about the Lydecker family as well as two families closest to them but perhaps in digging deeper you can find more because you are almost certainly missing something. As the people most likely behind the shark-bat monsters at the Atlantis event it is certainly in your interests to do so.
[ ] Steal 40 cakes
DC 77 LexCorp plans on breaking into the food production market as they already have several patents on genetically modified food. However you want to make sure your entrance into this market is perfect. Thus you plan to steal forty cakes from Metropolis' most successful bakery. That's as many as four tens. And that's terrible.
[ ] Investigate the Tokyo Troopers
DC ??? Over the course of training the Tokyo Troopers Katherine noticed some very unusual behavior from them that seemed more than a little odd. Looking into the details here might be worth it in order to figure out just what is going on in Japan
[ ] Covertly hire gangs from Dakota City
DC 21 Dakota City has a whole host of gangs which, while potentially a problem, can also be an opportunity. After all while the criminal element in the city is much more entrenched than in Metropolis that means you can make use of them as disposable assets. You'd obviously have to not get caught but you could easily control the criminal element if you were willing to quietly invest in the right places and from there that means you could use it against your enemies
[ ] Investigate the Murder Machine
DC ??? Nygma has voiced suspicions that the Murder Machine may not be what it seems at first glance. With a name as lurid as "the Murder Machine", it might be best to look into the device to see if there is any grounding to Nygma's concerns
[ ] Investigate Dr. March
DC 26 Dr. March is a geneticist and zoologist with ties to Dr. Kirk Langstrom who has apparently been receiving covert funding from the Lydecker family. It is likely his work that lead to the shark-bat creatures. As such it might be best to look into him and just what he is capable of. Perhaps you might even steal his work if it proves useful enough
[ ] Investigate Emile Dorian
DC ??? Emile Dorian is not a man respected by the scientific community and some of his ideas regarding "splicing" were deemed utterly unethical. However he's been covertly receiving money from the Lydecker family which means he must have something. You've worked with worse and have far more resources than the Lydeckers so looking into Emile might mean finding the lever to poach him for yourself
[ ] Covertly leak your findings and suspicions on the Lydecker family
DC 19 It might be a bit difficult to prevent it from being tied back to you but if you can arange for a discrete "leak" of what you know and suspect about the Lydecker family than you can cause them no end of grief and they won't even be able to blame you for it.
[ ] Investigate the Doom Patrol
DC 16 The Brotherhood of Evil has managed to leak the existence of a superhero team called the "Doom Patrol" lead by one Niles Caulder. It might be well worth trying to dig up who they are and what they want to better prepare yourself for a potential meeting with them. With the Brain recently revealing their location and membership, the Doom Patrol is now easier than ever to locate.
[ ] Look for Amy Winston
DC ??? (dependent on subvote during Hero Vote) Herbert Winston's daughter has vanished and the man has asked you to help find her. You agreed to his request and as such you ought to at least make it visible that you are indeed looking for her
[ ] Investigate Swamp Thing
DC ??? You have no idea what Swamp Thing even is but considering it rampaged near your land it might be worthwhile to investigate the creature and see what you can turn up
[ ] Investigate Frankenstein
DC 68 It's not enough that you live in a world where vampires gods and aliens are real, apparently Mary Shelly's titular modern Prometheus exists in some capacity. You aren't sure why it is so continuously surprising but just when you think you've figured out everything another curveball comes out to surprise you. Still looking into Frankenstein is appealing as it might lead to a way for you to create your own lifeforms
[ ] Attempt to spy on the Lord of Order in Salem
DC 15 Lords of Order and Chaos are apparently big deals when it comes to mystical might. As such it is tempting to set up surveillance on the location where you know one is located in, Salem. It won't guarantee you can observe them but it might give you a heads up if and when things are about to go pear-shaped
[ ] Attempt to locate Vandal Savage
DC ??? An immortal man who has been around since the dawn of time pursuing an unknown agenda is an interesting resource to ponder. If he remains alive, which he most likely has, then finding Vandal Savage could enable you to uncover more than a few interesting aspects of history that have long since been buried.
[ ] Use the magic detection trinket to attempt to find magic users
DC ??? It's a complete and total longshot but you can attempt to use the magic detection trinket to try and find more magical practitioners so that you are not reliant solely on Rebecca and Dekan. It likely won't lead to anything but it's something you can do
[ ] Investigate the Creature Commandos
DC 46 The Creature Commandos are a task force created by the US government to combat the supernatural. not only would looking into them enable you to more deeply examine things like Lycanthropy and gorgons but Rose's father was once a member of the unit. As such checking on thier history might be worth it in the long run as it could pay quite a few dividends if you get the right lead
[ ] Steal the Nuclear Family
DC ??? The Nuclear Family is a series of androids that were defeated by the Metal Men and then put into the custody of ARGUS. You could attempt to steal them back yourself but it is a risky play to make as you don't know where they are and such actions could get you accused of treason
[ ] Investigate Tobias Whale
DC 26 Tobias Whale is probably the most successful opposition you have ever faced in Metropolis as while you did manage to force him out of the city, through trickery he was able to outmaneuver you well enough to ensure that he survived. He was by no means a threat but he is canny enough that investigating what he is doing in Dakota City could prove worthwhile all on its own/ You've already got a sense of how he's moving, getting better intel would aid you in preventing any surprises coming from him.
[ ] Attempt to locate Dekan Drache
DC ??? Dekan Drache has almost immediately gone rogue from your company and proven to be an unstable agent under the influence of an outside force. Tracking him down and finding out what he's up to might allow you to more effectviely neutralize him.
[ ] Attempt to figure out who stole from Maxwell Tremaine
DC ??? Someone else had the idea to pilfer Tremaine's blueprints and ideas long before you did. As such many things you could have acquired are now inadvertandly out of your reach. Finding out who stole from Tremaine may enable you to figure out exactly what's going on and what you can do with it.
[ ] Investigate Booster Gold
DC ??? Booster Gold is an utter enigma as prior to this event there are no records of him showing up. He doesn't seem like an individual that could stay quiet and off the grid as effectively as he has and as such looking into things may end up helping you discover something more about him
[ ] Investigate Hawkgirl
DC 98 Hawkgirl on the other hand is someone whom you have a more concrete record of. She has been present in Mexico and while she hasn't exactly been warm and welcoming, her mace was made of Nth metal and so she might be worth investigating for that alone.
[ ] Investigate Captain Marvel
DC ??? Captain Marvel showed up in Fawcett City during the Brainiac invasion and has proven to be remarkably similar in powerset to Superman. As such investigating him, to figure out what exactly is going on might end up being well worth it. After all someone so similar to Superman could serve as a replacement to Superman or a bolstering of his image due to being so alike.
[ ] Investigate the Blue Beetle
DC 51 The Blue Beetle is a superhero who showed up to help fight off Brainiac's invasion. Unlike a lot of other heroes, the Blue Beetle had access to a level of resources no one else seemed to have. Investigating who and what he is may end up giving you the edge you need in order to ensure that in the future you aren't caught off guard by someone you had previously never considered
[ ] Investigate the Great Ten
DC ??? The Great Ten is China's premier superhero team and they have shown their martial capabilities by successfully fending off Brainiac's assault on China. As such figuring out exactly who and what they are could prove useful to advancing your own interests and denying those of a foreign power and potential competitor
[ ] Covertly acquire more damaged Brainiac technology
DC 104 Brainiac's technology now seeds the earth following his failed invasion attempt. You have no doubt that everyone who is anyone will be attempting to gather these resources for their own use. As such covertly acquiring more of the technology for yourself would reduce the amount your opponents can acquire while at the same time keeping their attention off of you. As tech becomes scarcer and scarcer doing this inherently becomes harder and harder
[ ] Attempt to further dose Lois Lane with mind-altering pheromones
DC 200 (DC 37 if Pamela Isley is assigned to this task) Lois Lane has proven remarkably stubborn and a consistent opponent for you and a supporter of Superman. You've already attempted to manipulate her mind subtly once but further building upon what has already been done could prove beneficial. It would likely be immensely tricky to pull off but if you get it to work out successfully it could be well worth the results.
[ ] Attempt to point Metallo in a specific direction
DC ??? Metallo currently sits in a LexCorp owned warehouse as a deniable asset. He's unable to access anything on his own as of now and remains highly damaged but you've conveniently and deniably left him in a place where he could potentially upgrade himself to take on Superman. If you are willing to take the risk of potentially tying yourself tighter to Metallo, you could take the risk of attempting to steer him in a specific direction to then exploit, provided you are willing to take the risk that things might not work out ideally for you depending on how Metallo responds.
[ ] Search for the Karna Kavacha
DC ??? The Karna Kavacha are a legendary pair of earings said to make whoever wore them completely unkillable. Naturally such claims need to be taken with a fair bit of skepticism but if such a thing is true then it would be immensely useful if you were able to find and locate them. Complete immunity to being killed in battle is a massive force multiplier and as such it's tempting to think about. That being said it would be immensely difficult to find them and you are likely to burn a lot of resources in pursuit of this goal
[ ] Search for Vimana
DC ??? Vimana on the other hand are significantly more mundane. What is effectively an ancient Indian UFO is interesting to investigate and if there is a technological basis for them and not solely a magical one, then reverse engineering them would be well worth the effort as it might end up informing you far more about the rigors of space travel.
[ ] Investigate who has been supplying the Charger with advanced technology
DC 48 Some unknown individual has been providing the supervillains who menace Superman with advanced technology to fight him toe to toe. While you don't mind someone taking on (and potentially taking out) the big blue boyscout, an unaccounted for source of advanced technology is something you would like to find out about swiftly lest it becomes a problem or an opportunity is squandered.
[ ] Search for the Rock of Eternity
DC ??? The Rock of Eternity is a legendary location Black Adam has informed you of. Finding it and by extension the Three Faces of Evil could give you a leg up on any and all opponents seeking to overcome you with pure mystical might. It is inordinately hard to find but you are confident you can at least find some kind of clue to it
[ ] Investigate Felix Faust
DC 34 Felix Faust is a legendary magic user whom Black Adam has ended up informing you of. Considering the fact that Black Adam mentioned he had acquired some form of immortality and pioneered working with demons, looking further into Faust may end up proving well worth it
[ ] Covertly acquire "Bad Santa"
DC 72 The criminal known only as "Bad Santa" is currently locked up in Arkham and is one of the few known psychics you can easily get your hands on. It'll likely be dangerous and pulling him out of Arkham and into your care will be difficult but being able to study and analyze a live psychic could help you to begin diving into a field you currently have very little understanding of.
[ ] Investigate Black Banshee
DC 65 Black Banshee is an individual currently unknown to you but the fact of the matter is his power is incredibly similar to Siobhan's. Analyzing and understanding his abilities could help you figure out how Siobhan's powers work and thus how best to make use of them and potentially improve them.
[ ] Investigate Dr. Fate
DC ??? Dr. Fate has proven to be an immensely powerful entity and one that was critical to repelling Brainiac off-world. As such finding out as much as you can about him could end up proving critical to understanding how best to defend the earth in the future if a similar situation ends up arising. His involvement in the Karkull incident has only made it more critical than ever to make sure you truly understand what Dr. Fate is and how he operates.
[ ] Investigate Karkull
DC 39 The entity that called itself Karkull was an outside context problem that managed to swiftly overrun your city and turn Metropolis into an almost literal hellscape with next to no warning. Something like that cannot happen again. Karkull has given a good amount of hints as to his nature with what he has said but looking deeper into the matter could prove quite useful
[ ] Search for Lords of Chaos
DC ??? Dr. Fate has been confirmed to be a Lord of Order and you've received very clear mention of the existence and potential of Lords of Chaos, especially in relation to Jinx. Seeking out a Lord of Chaos could prove incredibly risky but the rewards are equally as massive. It's a hail mary play but it might be worth looking into.
[ ] Further investigate the robot duplicates
DC 55 (Please note that this action will take place after a nemesis event) Whoever is behind this scheme with the robotic duplicates has certainly irked you. They've made use of your name and image and they appear to have designs on the POTUS. Learning more about what exactly they are planning and piecing together how things turned out the way they did can only prove useful for you in the long run.
[ ] Covertly cut off power for your opponents.
DC 24 With your complete and utter control of Metropolis' power grid you now have the ability to harry your ideological opponents by deniably denying them access to electricity and thus to a wide variety of functions needed in modern society. It would be bad if this gets out to the public and it won't actually stop anyone from disliking you but it will be satisfying and will enable you to make any battle against you that much harder.
[ ] Covertly gain control of Metropolis' traffic systems
DC 27 While you don't have access to Metropolis' traffic systems directly you do have enough access to other related systems that you can easily and quietly seize control of that element as well. Slowly but surely everything in Metropolis will fall under your control.
[ ] Secretly release Blackrock and observe where he goes
DC 38 Blackrock's ties to Santa Prisca are concerning and you'd like to find out more about just what is going on with them. By releasing Blackrock from prison you can kill two birds with one stone, both by figuring out what Blackrock is prioritizing with his new working arrangement as well as potentially keeping Superman busy. Obviously you need to be careful to keep this hidden but the results could be well worth it.
[ ] Use your life model decoy drones to conduct a false flag operation
DC ??? (depends on who you want to commit the false flag attack against) Having access to robots that can take the appearance of virtually anyone in the world is immensely useful if you want to start a crisis or two. Drum up some fear and panic and not only are you in business but people will be more willing to hand over greater amounts of control to you. Naturally you'd need to be careful to not get caught but this is quite the opportunity for you
[ ] Attempt to identify Mr. Atom's mysterious backer
DC ??? Robots as big and as advanced as Mr. Atom don't come out of nowhere. Locating who could be behind the mechanical automaton is well worth considering as it'll ensure that whoever is behind the machine won't be able to interfere in your own operations
[ ] Attempt to get into contact with the Trickster
DC 54 (DC 27 if Lisa, Sam, Leonard or Mick are assigned to this action) The Trickster is a crook and a conman who has tangled with the Flash. Currently he is on the run but if you recruit him you are confident that you can make those problems disappear. Still, it's something that comes with not insignificant risk as you don't know if you can trust him. Getting into contact with him will help you to understand if you ought to recruit him or merely hire him for one-off jobs or even avoid him altogether. Understanding how to approach him might be the best way to go about doing things and in order to do that you need to get into contact with him
[ ] Investigate the situation in Zambesi
DC 36 The civil war in Zambesi has been going on for quite a while not but following Brainiac's invasion you haven't heard too much from them. Investigating what's going on might be better than a more heavy handed approach like backing a warlord or conquering the country for yourself. Knowledge is power after all and in this case knowledge will be quite helpful in ensuring that you're not flying blind.
[ ] Abduct Drive-By from police custody
DC 23 It would be remarkably east to just grab Drive-By and remove him from police custody. While the young metahuman doesn't seem amenable to cooperation, you could gain some understanding of how his powers, which notably include super speed, work by dissecting him and seeing what makes him tick. The main catch to this sort of idea is to try and make sure that there are no trails leading back to you once you've made Drive-By disappear.
[ ] Repurpose DOMA funding
DC ??? Now that you've secured funding for the DOMA you could easily draft a reason for the DOMA to funnel that money back into LexCorp. Such a move likely wouldn't be popular or exceedingly well liked, but you could at least do something with it. It's a way for you to keep on making money.
[ ] Locate La Encantadora
DC ??? La Encantadora is a Santa Priscan metahuman that has been active in Metropolis for a while. Whilst previously you were content to not act on any information, her increasingly overt actions and involvement with Blackrock makes tracking her down a potential priority for you and ought to be moved on to ensure no further problems arise. Her actions in targeting Superman have made locating her more important than ever
[ ] Steal the Merlino mind control devices from STAR Labs
DC 58? The mind control devices used in Toby Merlino's human trafficking ring are powerful and as of right now, exactly how they work is unknown. Notably you have a large collection of them and you are confident that you can reverse engineer them. Allowing others to study the devices increases the chances of them being used against you or of someone developing a countermeasure. Stealing the samples sent to STAR Labs will ensure that at least for a little while the only people able to make use of this technology will be you and perhaps Merlino himself
[ ] Destroy the Merlino mind control devices in STAR Labs
DC 25? That being said the simpler option is to simply destroy the devices in STAR Labs custody. It wouldn't be too hard to send something their way that destroys the lab they are being held in and it's a lot easier to hide evidence when you're destroying things then when trying to steal things. It still might prove tricky but you're confident you can find some way of arranging things to work out.
[ ] Investigate who created the Osprey's exosuit
DC ??? The Osprey is a Gotham based criminal who clashed with Batman in Gotham. Notably the Osprey used an exosuit with a design you've never seen before. As the world's premier exosuit creator it is only natural that you investigate just where this came from to attempt to make sure that you won't have any competitors pulling sudden surprises out on you.
[ ] Investigate Black Ops
DC 46 Black Ops is a group of mercenaries that have attempted to pitch themselves as being willing to fight and kill both Superman and Ultraviolet. These claims are problematic as it means some idiot with more money than sense might put out a hit on your employee. You refuse to let this problem go unaddressed. Investigating into who Black Ops really are and knowing where they are and what they are doing will allow you to successfully counter them if they ever intend on causing problems for you.
[ ] Investigate Kid Flash
DC ??? Kid Flash is a new sidekick of the Flash with the same powerset as the older hero. Notably he proves that the Flash's powers can potentially be replicated. It could prove quite fruitful to look into things and find out more about this "Kid Flash".
[ ] Arm rebels in Khandaq
DC 68 It would be a challenge to pull this off stealthily but you could potentially arm rebels in Khandaq to loosen Black Adams grip over the country. The more work he has to put into maintaining his control, the more likely he is to seek your aid and the more resources Waller is likely to burn helping him maintain order. It would effectively be killing two birds with one stone.
[ ] Attempt to investigate Project Red Sun further
DC ??? Ra's al Ghul has provided you with plenty of evidence as to what the Polkolistanian Project Red Sun is up to but you don't have your own eyes and ears on the inside at this point in time. It might be worth looking into, even with how difficult it would be to pull this off.
[ ] Investigate Earl Dukeston
DC 36 Earl Dukeston is someone who managed to earn your ire by subverting one of your employees and then using that individual to earn more money through the information he gleaned. Dukeston never directly hurt you but his meddling in your affairs, coupled with his sloppy cleanup work, have caused you to think poorly of him. Looking into Dukeston further might prove informative.
[ ] Investigate Supergirl
DC 64? Something is off about Supergirl as Ultraviolet's observations indicate that she's not acting independently. In addition having a wildcard with the powers of Superman is not something you want to deal with. Looking into who she is and what she's doing might help aid you in determining how best to proceed when dealing with another Kryptonian
[ ] Investigate the Durlan posing as Martin Thorpe
DC ??? You're not sure how trustworthy Supergirl's words are but the existence of a shapeshifting alien known as a Durlan is something worth considering. Looking into him and what he was doing may yield greater results for you. Of course in doing so you'd have to figure out where Superman has taken him but once that's solved you might be able to figure out quite a few things about the wider universe
[ ] Covertly release Goldface
DC 37 While Goldface is by no means an incredible supervillain, he's powerful enough and well-known enough to have a non-negligible reputation. Releasing him from prison covertly will give you the opportunity to use him, either by steering him towards your competition or by taking him down to earn more infamy.
[ ] Covertly release Crazytop
DC 24 Crazytop is a supervillain that Superman recently took down and captured. You don't expect many incredible things from him, but covertly breaking him out of prison would almost certainly help you cause problems for Superman.
[ ] Interrogate Toby Merlino
DC 3 Toby Merlino ran a human trafficking ring within Metropolis. While the man is currently behind bars, the advanced technology he used to do so is well worth checking on. Interrogating him about the source of his mind control devices could prove to be quite the fruitful endeavor
[ ] Investigate Killer Moth
DC ??? Something has changed with Killer Moth if he was suddenly able to defeat Batman. While the rumors surrounding the incident are fanciful, there might be a kernel of truth to them and so it could be worthwhile to look into exactly what is going on with Killer Moth. Admittedly you'd need to put in work locating him, but if you can find him then you might be able to get to the bottom of this mystery.
[ ] Further investigate Black Manta
DC 56 With Ra's al Ghul's latest information on Black Manta having managed to fill in a fair number of details on the man, you are fairly confident that you can begin to have a go of finding out more about this mysterious anti-Atlantis terrorist. Having a better read on the man could prove quite useful if you intend to make use of him later.
[ ] Further investigate Amy Winston's disappearance
DC ??? Amy Winston's reappearance has left a number of unsolved mysteries in its wake, perhaps most notably the images of her popping in and out of portals at various locations, dressed in amethyst-like armor, fighting an unknown man. Getting to the bottom of this mystery might help you figure out exactly what is going on with her and enable you to better make plans involving her.
[ ] Assist Nightshade in tracking down the demon she wants to get revenge on
DC ??? Nightshade has revealed in a moment of tension that her goal is to get revenge upon a demon for killing her brother. She's fairly confident she can identify the demon if given the resources to do so, and is quite willing to begin making moves to track down said demon on her own, but at the same time would be very grateful to any additional assistance you could provide her with. This is an opportunity to potentially earn further loyalty
[ ] Investigate the Yellow Lanterns
DC ??? (putting Carol on this action greatly reduces the DC) This is the second time that the Yellow Lanterns have shown up on the planet. Unlike before however, this one, an individual named Boodikka, indicated both that she knew who Hal Jordan was, and let slip that something big was going on at an interstellar scale that you are unaware of. Looking into them, and by extension the Green Lanterns might help you get to the bottom of this mystery
[ ] Investigate HIVE's ties to the American government
DC ??? Your ally Queen Bee has informed you that there likely is some kind of connection between HIVE and the US government. You're not sure exactly what it is but it has managed to catch you off guard. As such it might be worth further investigating and digging into in order to determine exactly what is going on and to ensure that HIVE doesn't continue to remain a thorn in your side going into the future
