what about Alva Industries which is a chemical research company founded and run by Edwin Alva. does it exist in this world?
Alva industries is still a start up and hasn't gotten big yet.
Innovation into Immortality
"Here we are, your own lab." Luthor said as he opened the metal airlock to what he says is my lab, when it is actually LexCorp's lab that he hired me to use.

As I walk inside, I see an electric forge, a large quantities of different raw ore all in their labelled bins, blacksmithing tools, computers attached to various other equipment, and many more.

"There is a Lex-Phone on the table, it act like a key to your part of the lab and the elevator to your floor. It will be needed to be scanned in conjunction with a retinal scan to allow you access, so don't lose it." Lex explained whilst I was checking the equipment.

"And allowing you to lock me or anyone who manages to steal my phone out of my lab whenever you wish." I state rather plainly as it is elementary deduction.

"Of course, no expense is spared here at LexCorp." Lex continued his ego stroking whilst I inspected one of the computers.

"I suppose you also installed cameras, automated turrets, and electric traps in this room to." I said not caring at all.

"Please, I have those installed it in every room." I roll my eyes as I check inspect the soldering table.

"If you need anything, you contact your assigned supplier with your Lex Phone." With that, Luthor left the lab.

Finally I thought he'd never shut up. Now back to work. Lex was right about one thing, many of the equipment in this room is expensive and some are unique only to Lex Corp.

I walk back to the computer, which is connected to the internet, and plugged in a hard drive with all of my secret research from my tenure are Star Labs. As I open my file, I began to review everything to check if there is something missing. I know Lex will most likely have already bugged my computer, but it doesn't matter. I doubt he'll understand the equations to my AI research. Besides, he needs my genius the same as I need his resources, so long as I am perceived as useful he'll keep me around.

With the ultimate goal of my research being immortality, it is something that Lex will be extremely interested in. The means of achieving it is through a never aging android body. With my brilliant understanding of robotics making a robot body will be easy. But I will not settle on just a plain old toy robot, no I'll become the perfect android. An android that can adapt to any situation, can improve itself, and be amazingly perfect. I grin as I imagine what I can do with an android body like that. Getting back at those from Star Labs would be a good place to start once I am done.

But dreams don't come to reality by themselves, I need to shape it myself. The first step is to develop a computer that can house a consciousness. This will be where I will be housed when my time in this mortal coil is nearly up. The next step is to create method to transfer my consciousness. And the last step is to create the perfect Android body.

Now what to call my Magnum Opus, my crowning achievement.
How about A.M.A.Z.O.
Yes that'll do nicely.

With everything in my hard drive in order I'll start my computer research by seeing what is the latest computer on the market today and seeing how it ticks. I look at the Lex-Phone on the table to my left. I grin as I'm sure I can put it back together in one piece within a day with the tools available in the lab. Maybe add my own modifications to it, so long as it functions as a key card and record what I do with it, I'm sure Luthor wouldn't care what I do with it.

-----------------
Had to imagine what a bitter super genius with a powerful motivation would think to make this. I don't have a lot to work with for Ivo so it is shorter than my previous omake. Still hope you enjoy it tho.
Ivo is just off enough in characterization (he is tricky because he lacks a lot of self awareness about himself) that I'd have to count it as non-canon. Please clean up the spelling and grammar issues and enjoy your 200 exp
Luthor's office on the morning after the interview

"Lex, this journalist is a problem." Mercy said entering Luthor office "I just read the interview. She treated you like some petty criminal. Let me arrange an accident for her or something"

Luthor smiled softly as his assistant barged in his office. She is a valuable assistant but tend to let her emotions to take over reason sometimes. "It is not necessary... Yet. But we do need to keep our eyes on miss Lane" Lex paused, smiled and added "But her style of interviewing isn't the only thing that made you angry, right? You seem to like our new employee, Pamela, and miss Lane wasn't very kind to her"

"Why would I like this hippy?" Mercy quickly objected. She wasn't one to easily admit any sympathy "But this girl has some potential that others foolishly fail to see"

"Speaking about ones who fail to appreciate our idealistic botanist. Did you ask her about this Woodrue and their relationships?" Luthor got amused by noticing a tiny spark of disgust in Mercy eyes as she heard the name. Dr. Jason Woodrue got an enemy and he should hope that Mercy won't find free time to do something against him.

"No. But isn't it obvious? She is almost as hot as I am. She rejected his advancements and he remembered that"

"Interesting theory. Even a likely one. But how many times I said you to not jump to conclusions? Anyway, "Luthor tone clearly indicated that he don't Mercy to waste her time on learning the truth "what do you think would be the best use of Dr. Isley?"

"Well, you plan to assign her to developing pharmaceutical branch, right?"

"Perhaps. It is a nice place for her to start in LexCorp. But knowing you, you may have other ideas." In fact Luthor would be disappointed if she didn't.

"I think Stagg Enterprises would love to have an informant leaking them all secrets of our new division" Mercy said with a wide grin

Luthor understood his assistant's idea immediately "Do you really think that she has what it takes to be a double agent and feed them disinformation?"

"Under my supervision. Yes" Mercy paused for few seconds choosing words, which was not a very typical behavior for her "I mean such mission would be a perfect test to learn if she is capable for something more than studying vegetables. If she fails, we'll at least learn that she is of little actual use"

"I'll think about this offer. It has some potential. Yet I am unsure that this naive young woman will even agree to do such job. " Luthor shook his head and added after few more seconds "I think it is too early for that. We should first gain her loyalty before trying to give her a task that requires it. Speaking of which, do you have any ideas how to make Pamela like her boss more?"

"I think I do" The speed of answer indicated that Mercy put some thought about this earlier. "She is obsessed with saving our stinky planet or as she says 'Mother Earth'. I suggest to give her some money and let her pretty face be a centerpiece of our new charity PR campaign. After all you did say that bi... miss Lane that you care about environment. Let Pamela waste some of your cash on saving jungles and other crap like this. She'll worship you."

"This task seems to fit her better than trying to be a double agent. It is worth consideration" Mercy opened her mouth to add something but Luthor made a gesture that this topic is closed "What about our other employee, Ivo? Did you learn something about his secrets?"

"Some files from his computer, usual data from his phone but nothing truly useful. He is not a fool."

"He most certainly isn't one" Luthor frowned "Keep your eyes on him. I am sure he will try something against interests of LexCorp. Do you have anything else to report?"

"No." Mercy knew his boss well enough to know that such question means that he wants to be left alone to think about some of his plans and she did as she was indirectly asked.

Lois Lane was sitting at her desk, alone in the dark of her office save for the desk-lamp. It was another all-nighter for the intrepid reporter as there were always secrets that needed to be disinfected by the light of day. She was interrupted by a call on her new Lex-Phone. Despite her suspicion of Lex Luthor, the new phone was handy- as long as she used it only for non-work related and non-sources of information matters. She didn't trust LexCorp that much, after all.

"Hey, Lucy." Lois asked after she noted the caller ID- Lucy Lane. Her sister probably had some thoughts on the new article on Lucy's new boss...


"Seriously? The Dark Side of Metropolis' Favorite Son? You couldn't have just titled it "Hey, let's get Lucy fired!?!"

"Why, hello Lois. I just read your article, Sis. What a well-researched look into the company that I am working for, Lois," Lois said to herself while speaking with Lucy.

"Cut the holier-than-though stuff, Lois. I'm going to get an earful from Shuster tomorrow because of your article. And, its not like it says stuff that people didn't suspect. Newsflash: billionaire technical genius has personality and daddy issues. Yeah, not surprising."

"Maybe not that- but it really raises questions as to the questionable hiring practices of one of America's largest companies. That and the mystery of the assassination attempt- there's a lot more to it than we know."

"Questionable hiring practices? Nice- real nice."

"That's not what I meant."

"No, no. Because Lex Luthor will only hire monsters, right? Its a company Lois- a big company. Its not some sort of scary monster being led by a sociopathic monster."

"Well, the jury's out on the sociopathic part. You needed to be in the room- its a facial charm that's calculated. You sure you want to work for a guy like him?"

"As opposed to the many non-calculating CEOs of multi-billion dollar companies? And, no. If I want to work in this field its going to have to be with the company that employees almost a third of the city. And if I get fired, there aren't many big law firms that will hire me."

"He's not going to fire you- you can just sue. And, it'll look really bad," Lois reasoned.

"Oh, yeah. That's a great career booster: sued her employer for firing her based on her sister's reporting. You know they can just create a good reason. Its just- can you not write really negative articles about my boss while I'm working for him?"

"You know I can't ignore a story because of my personal connection."

"You can, you just don't want to."

"That's not true- the people deserve to know," Lois said with a tense tone in her voice. The entire conversation had started tense and just increased.

"Yeah, yeah. The people know- and then things get worse. Its like what happened with that prison-"

"Not this again-"

"If you just told dad-"

"Nothing would have changed! Dad would have just put the research under military control and continued it!"

"Wow. That's some faith you have in your family, Sis. Just...wow."

Lois didn't say anything for a moment. They'd been having this argument for years, now. Not about the exact issue, but about their father and his character (or lack thereof in Lois' opinion).

"Let's not talk about this- l how about lunch this weekend? At Pete's?" Lois offered.

"That's not going to make up for the shit that this is going to cause-"

"Its not supposed to- its not an apology. I didn't do anything wrong."

Lucy just sighed.

"I don't know what I expected when I called. I just- I have to go."

"Wait, Lucy-"

And then, the call disconnected. Lois put down her cellphone and sighed. Lucy would get over it- she always did. It was just going to be an uncomfortable few weeks.

Lois went back to her work, trying to put the conversation aside. Because, there was truth out there, and the people had the right to know.

We should really ask Lois at some point "If your spreading the Truth hurts more people than the thing that was hidden ever did, was it really the Right thing to do?"

This is awesome. Have 500 exp since this is a canon omake.
 
... So we should definitely solidify our connection with Lucy Lane. Having another Hero Unit would be nice, and having Lucy Lane as a loyal supporter of Lex would conveniently mess with Lois' public reception.

Think about it: "Star Reporter shamelessly tries to ruin Sister's Career". We wouldn't have to do much to make Lois look increasingly biased, being cranky her sister loyally works for Lex Luthor.
 
I think a big point here is, in Comic Books at least, there is a difference between Breaking The Law, and Being A Criminal.

Batman breaks the law every day. He embezzles funds, he has access to military grade weaponry he really shouldn't, he totally engages in illegal surveilance, and so on. Most of the crimes we are doing. Yet most people wouldn't call him a Criminal (except for his vigilante behavior, and that's only sometimes). Falcone, Penguin, Joker, they're criminals. They profit from crimes, it's their MAIN source of profit. Our crimes are pretty much just a means to an end.

And this is why people are probably so upset with her. She's hounding us, when we aren't even a "true criminal". Our crimes hurt very few people, and every one of the people it does hurt are people who deserved it.

:???: He murdered his own father, installed his personal WMDs in a civilian populated area, and instituted a private global spy system. Not out of a desire for justice like Batman, but out of ego aggrandizement and desire for monetary profit. This is exactly what I was talking about when I mentioned protagonist centered morality.
 
Lionel Luthor was an even worse person, who shamelessly killed his own employees in rage. Lex did society a favor offing his old man. Besides that... Sure, the ICBMs are overkill right now, but any weapon or device on their level would still get him in trouble.

The global spy system will prove itself useful, and you just know the various governments & organisations calling for its removal actually just want it for themselves.

Finally... We clearly get to influence Luthor somewhat. So we just have to consistently push for "good guy" actions, and Lex would at least look like a hero. Mean, it benefits Lex more having a functional society than some burning dumpster fire of a planet.
 
Ivo is just off enough in characterization (he is tricky because he lacks a lot of self awareness about himself) that I'd have to count it as non-canon. Please clean up the spelling and grammar issues and enjoy your 200 exp
I mainly used the Young Justice Ivo which is the only Ivo I know of unfortunately. YJ Ivo is a smug guy which is no where close to this quest's Ivo based on what I read so all I can do is make YJ Ivo much more bitter about the world. I think I can fix Ivo's characterization with some help from people more knowledgeable about comic book Ivo. Can anyone help with that?

Father murder, I'll give you. A lot of Anti-heroes have a similar claim, and they are still called heroes, not criminals.

The WMDs and Spy System are not, in fact, for our ego or for our desire for money. The WMDs are for many "Worst case scenarios" we can think up. Like the US being invaded, and the army is knocking on Metropolis's doorstep. The spy-system is to help us deal with anyone who stands in the way of us improving the world. Which is almost exactly what Batman does. We don't desire justice, no, but we DO desire to make the world a better place, similar but different. And people like the League of Shadows stand in our way.
 
The vote is now closed. Expect an update in half an hour. I'm still not done cataloguing all the options. You might have broken 150 actions which is why I'm taking so long to finish. The winning vote is
[X] [answer] Tell Lois that the investigation is ongoing and any information provided may harm the investigation or endanger people. When we get actionable information, we will hand it over to the appropriate authorities who can determine in what manner they can safely disseminate the information.

Edit: I counted out the options. After folding some stuff together to spare my sanity it turns out you only have 115 actions to pick from.

Action phase 3
Hey guys here is action phase 3. A ton of stuff has come up. Characters are starting to get more involved and things are starting to pick up. The amount of content created for this quest is utterly astounding to me and I'm really glad people are enjoying this quest. You guys already broke the 100+ mark on the amount of options you had and it's only turn 3. The vote closes tomorrow at 10:00 PM PST

Turn 3 Action Vote
Select up to eight actions:

Martial: With the recent assassination attempt on your life it may be more prudent then ever to invest in strengthening your forces. The League of Shadows will learn they made a mistake targeting you as your forces will easily decimate whatever obstacle lies in your way so long as you develop them properly

[ ] Hire more LexCorp security forces
DC 20 You can never go wrong with having more men. Increasing the amount of combat capable workers you have is always a good thing

[ ] Improve LexCorp forces equipment
DC 50 Your forces are equipped with the best equipment money can buy. However you can go even further. By customizing the individuals equipment to suit their needs you can further improve their equipment.

[ ] Fortify LexCorp tower
DC 72 While your security system has effortlessly stopped the assassination attempt the fact still remains that assassins managed to get into your tower. Upping the security will help keep you safe if anyone else attempts to do so and will discourage repeated assassination attempts.

[ ] Patrol Metropolis with security forces
DC 2 Your forces are incredibly powerful and have unmatched capability. However they have very little field experience. Why not give your forces some field experience? Sure this will probably increase resentment amongst the police but you can essentially supplant them in every way since your own forces are vastly superior.

[ ] Crush all criminals
DC 23 Metropolis is your city and you refuse to let it be infested by rats. Purge the city of all crime and crack down on groups like Intergang. There is no room in your perfect world for parasites

[ ] Overthrow Qurac
DC 65 Qurac is an unstable middle eastern country with numerous violent insurgent groups attempting to overthrow the government. Sounds like the perfect place to test your weapons and get your forces combat experience. Who knows you may even succeed in taking over the place

[ ] Overthrow Santa Prisca
DC 117 Santa Prisca is a Central American country ruled by a dictatorship. It is ideally situated for smuggling various goods through the Americas. Lois Lane's article has confirmed that there are secret prison facilities and ongoing human experimentation in the country. However due to the world learning of their indiscretions the Priscian government has doubled down on security and is actively gearing up for a defensive war.

[ ] Overthrow Markovia
DC 85 Markovia is a small european country that is absolutely rich in resources. However it is ruled by a benevolent monarch who is beloved by the people. This monarch is extremely restrictive of outsiders ability to enter the country. Thus if you want access to all of their resources the monarchy must be toppled

[ ] Attack Nanda Parbat
DC 60 You have learned from the assassins you interrogated that they came from Nanda Parbat. After researching it a little you have learned that Nanda Parbat is a small isolated city in the mountains of Nepal. Attacking the city may get you into a bit of a diplomatic snafu but the opportunity to completely destroy the League of Shadows might be worth it.

[ ] Train your body
DC 50 Your body is a temple so it should be perfect. True there often is less of a need for direct physical confrontation when you have all the resources of LexCorp at your disposal and you've only got so much time in the day but who knows maybe a hobby will do you some good (If this option is selected a hero must be assigned to it)

[ ] Build an orbital weapon
DC 36 The space race may be over but the final frontier is still a goldmine of various opportunities. Constructing an orbital weapon will give you firepower that virtually no one else has.

[ ] Begin development of combat exosuit
DC 44 A combat exosuit is an idea you've been floating around for a while. This exosuit would enhance the wearers strength and agility while providing an excellent defense. It may end up being too expensive for mass distribution but it will undoubtedly pave the way for things like private powered armor.

[ ] The note 7 special
DC 4 Cell phones are rather ubiquitous and people don't think much of them. However if built the right way cell phones can be rigged as surprisingly powerful explosives. With your genius you could easily come up with a design that would allow you to remotely detonate your cell phones. Sure you might earn some bad publicity from having your exploding phone kill someone but the ability to surreptitiously assassinate someone is too nice to pass up.

[ ] Begin a PMC
DC 34 LexCorp has some of the best weapons and gear on the market. However your forces while well trained do not have the experience and skill you desire for them to have. Armed conflict is a global ongoing trend and numerous individuals would pay plenty of money for a well armed group joining their forces. Creating a PMC allows you to exploit this demand and have people pay you to train your troops.

[ ] Tighten security
DC 23 Assassin's got into LexCorp tower. This is utterly unacceptable. You will do everything in your power to ensure that there will not be a repeat incident of something like this.

Diplomacy: Making friends and influencing people is the name of the game. As one of the world's biggest names thanks to the Lex-Phone you and your company are in a position to gather valuable individuals close. Expanding on your current good standing seems like a formula for success.

[ ] Donate to the public
DC 15 Everyone loves a good charity event and you've got the resources to spare to donate to the cause of your choice. When the public adores you the masses will be easy to lead in whichever direction you want them to go. An empire lives and dies by its people and your empire will be the greatest of all time

[ ] Donate to the police
DC 30 You've still got plenty of things the police want. Still you should probably make the gift much more impressive this time to ensure that the gift isn't misinterpreted and the police take the message the right way.

[ ] Donate to injured veterans
DC 10 As a company that supplies the US military many of its favorite bits of gear, LexCorp is heavily supported by veterans. With your new prosthetics you can easily give back to injured vets. Not only does this increase your popularity among veterans but it also gives you an easy recruitment pool for talented individuals.

[ ] Not a Bribe
DC 10 There are many unelected positions in America that provides large amount of sway over government policy and purchases. It wouldn't be inappropriate to arrange few private lunches with generals, bureaucrats, and scientists here and there to voice the interest of the business world namely your own

[ ] Get the government involved
DC 43 With the recent attempt on your life you can get the US government actively involved with your attempts to destroy a terrorist organization. Sure you don't want Uncle Sam looking too deeply at what LexCorp is doing (no capitalistic venture appreciates government oversight and regulation) but you are sure you can make sure this ends up improving your relationship with the US government.

[ ] Lexpo
DC 0 (the higher the roll the better the expo). LexCorp is one of the most powerful companies in the state and can be felt on an international level. You routinely revolutionize multiple scientific fields and yet outside of Metropolis you aren't all that well known. While there is a benefit to being relatively anonymous a man of your greatness deserves to be recognized for his genius. The Lexpo event not only will show the world your genius but it will also attract countless individuals interested in your work to you. (Throw a party and Lexpo cannot occur on the same turn)

[ ] Throw a party
DC 0 (the higher the roll the better the party). There is a hebrew proverb that roughly translates to "you only know a man when you have seen him in his joy, in his anger and in his cups". Parties bring out all three in people. Throwing a party is an opportunity to rub elbows with the people of your choice and get them to agree with your way of thinking. (Throw a party and Lexpo cannot occur on the same turn)

[ ] Throw a company party
DC 0 (the higher the roll the better the party). If you want to help the internal moral of the company a monthly company party might not be a bad idea. Getting your workers to view your company as a sort of extended family buys loyalty and hard work in a way financial compensation just can't quite match.

[ ] Develop a fashion line
DC 24 Fashion is often looked down upon by men of science but it is a useful tool. Just being in your power suit makes you feel more relaxed and at home. As such if you can develop a quality fashion line and get it to be the next big trend among the rich and famous you might succeed in making your brand a status symbol. On top of all the practical benefits it honestly just amuses you to get people fighting over and paying out the nose for being able to wear knock-offs of your own custom clothes

[ ] Collaborate with a rival company
DC 32 for Stagg Enterprises, DC 10 for S.T.A.R. Labs, 44 for Wayne Enterprises. Sometimes it's better to work with the enemy rather than against them. That said you fully intend to use any information learned to destroy your rivals with later.

[ ] Establish friendly relations with Quarac
DC 82 Quarac doesn't like americans but if you could get into an alliance with the leadership the tumultuous country could serve as an excellent testing ground for your weapons

[ ] Establish friendly relations with Santa Prisca
DC 25 Santa Prisca is desperate for any allies after Lois' article has made them repugnant in the world's eyes. Working with them could help you out but you don't want the world to learn of this alliance

[ ] Establish friendly relations with Markovia
DC 283 Markovia is incredibly isolationist. Still if you could somehow convince them to give you access to their natural resources it would be a major boon for LexCorp.

[ ] Buy a sports team
Admittedly you don't have much interest in sports but this will make you a more public figure in a positive way and will give you a status symbol to flaunt your rivals with

[ ] Buy art
DC 0 As a man of wealth and taste it is only right that you be able to tastefully display your wealth and taste by buying art and displaying it for all to see. More seriously, art is a very easy way to launder money and diversifying your wealth can only be a good thing especially when arts limited availability only causes the price to spike higher with time.

[ ] Subsume all crime
DC 50 Crime is an inevitability and no man can truly stop it on his own. However by taking control of all crime you can regulate it and make sure it doesn't negatively impact your city.

[ ] Recruit skilled criminals
DC 20 The vast majority of criminals are useless to a man such as yourself. However every so often you need people eliminated or companies sabotaged. Recruiting skilled criminals criminals could help fill this need and give you someone to delegate less savory activities and a scapegoat if worst comes to worst

[ ] Recruit talented scientists
DC 56 You've already expanded the amount of key scientists working at LexCorp but more cannot hope. LexCorp can only grow at an exponential rate if constant upkeep and new blood is brought in. There is a slight risk that something might collapse due to the company becoming too bloated in one section with very little results to back it up so far but you're sure you can handle it

[ ] Recruit competent assistants
DC 55 It's so hard to find good help. Mercy is a blessing in her competence but she cannot do everything. Finding someone to help fill in the gaps and take care of things you can't personally oversee would help everything run a lot smoother

[ ] Recruit unusual individuals
DC 75 The world is filled with strange and unfathomable things. As such one must always be on the lookout for a rare opportunity. Unique abilities under your leadership could lead humanity into a new golden age.

[ ] Look into hiring a PR representative
DC 12 The interview with Lois Lane has shown you how easily perception can be twisted and that while you are talented you can be thrown off your game when someone decides to start slinging mud at you from some unexpected and frankly rather disrespectful angle (like bringing up your relationship with your father). Hiring someone to manage your company's image and your own image seems like a worthwhile endeavor and will allow you to prevent any media vultures from tainting the reputation you have earned

[ ] Sell close to home
DC 35 The United States government likes having shiny new toys and LexCorp sells only the best. Sell some of your newest stock to make some money and earn some friends in the military.

[ ] Sell to foreign governments
DC 45 On the other hand we live in a global world. LexCorp can try and make some foreign friends by selling to non-american countries. You'll still make a profit and it will set you up for more relations later on down the line.

[ ] Sell to criminals
DC 15 Selling to criminals is playing the long game. The criminals will be indebted to you for allowing them to compete with the actual authorities and the authorities will need to buy from you in order to keep up and remain able to compete.

[ ] Reach out to Lucy Lane
DC 24 With your backdoor into the Lex-Phone network you managed to hear the argument between your biggest public detractor and her sister who works for you. Presenting a friendly ear may just get Lucy Lane on your side and besides the usefulness of having a personal lawyer the connection to Lois opens all sorts of tantalizing possibilities.

[ ] Public speaking tour
DC 15 With the massive shift in the way people communicate thanks to your communications network several prestigious universities and institutions have asked you to give a lecture. There is a slight risk of being attacked by more assassins while on tour but you refuse to be cowed into hiding

Stewardship: LexCorp is bigger than ever with it breaking into several new markets.However only the communication network really took off. That can easily be fixed and with the addition of Dr. Isley there are even more areas you can lead LexCorp to dominate

[ ] Build a new LexCorp building
DC ??? (dependent on the location the building is being built in. For example Central City has a DC of 45, Boston has a DC of 65 and Gotham has a DC of 83) Expansion is always a good thing as it opens up even more opportunities. Building a building in a new city will let you get your foot in the door for affecting that location.

[ ] Build a new public transportation system
DC 45 Creating a new public transportation will not only generate you some goodwill but it will also give you control over how the city moves.

[ ] Create a charity
DC 0 (the higher you roll the more successful the charity) Creating a charity not only nets you some positive press but it allows you to more easily move around money and get tax breaks. Creating a charity can help cement your legacy and get others to truly believe that you are a good man

[ ] Create an online storefront
DC 45 You have had yet another revolutionary idea. By creating an online website through which people could purchase things (with LexCorp making a small amount of profit on each transaction) you could easily revolutionize how shopping works. If you include having LexCorp do the delivery then you can be sure people will flock to this idea.

[ ] Integrate banking and payment service onto phone
DC 20 You have created a banking and payment system which was rather overshadowed by your massive success with the Lex-phone. However by integrating the service into the next generation of Lex-phones you are sure you can get more people to use the service and thus increase the amount of money you are making

[ ] Increase manufacturing cell phones
DC 10 Your communications network is wildly successful. However because you hadn't expected the demand to be so high you haven't managed to keep up with the demand. Expanding your operations here will increase your ability to produce enough phones to satisfy the market

[ ]Create a grant
DC 0 (how high you roll determines how effective the grant is) Money is not an issue for you but it certainly is for many other brilliant minds. By giving others the resources they need you will improve your image and possibly be able to recruit bright minds early.

[ ] Buy the Daily Planet
DC 68 Control of the media allows you to spin the narrative in your favor. The Daily Planet is a reputable newspaper that is a fixture of Metropolis. If you can control it your image can be effortlessly maintained. Now if only the owners were more willing to sell

[ ] Improve your dedicated lab space
DC 24 While you have your own lab space it isn't anything all that impressive and it certainly isn't capable of doing the science you wished you could with it. This is obviously a mistake that you intend to rectify immediately.

[ ] Improve Pamela Isley's lab space
DC 40 Dr. Isley has access to the standard LexCorp labs which are already state of the art. However as one of your two newest important employees you want to be able to exploit her potential to its fullest. Improving her lab space would only increase the wonders she will make for you

[ ] Build Ivo housing in a sublab
DC 9 Dr. Ives has claimed a sub-lab for his own and been working non-stop on his pet project down there. He has not left the building and you are unsure if he even has housing off-site. Dr. Ives doesn't want to deal with others so he has submitted a request for housing to be built in his sublab. Satisfying this desire might just get you out of having to deal with the man and will give you many options for observing and eliminating Ives in the future.

[ ] Build a sports stadium
DC 46 If you want to get your name out while maintaining some anonymity perhaps constructing a sports stadium is the way to go. On top of the benefits buying a sports team would give you it would also get you a lot of public pride as you have paid out of pocket for the facilities in which the home team trains and plays.

[ ] Build a monument
DC 34 Metropolis is your city, what better way to mark that by making a monument to claim it as your own. A monument not only would proclaim your own greatness to the world but would also allow you to hide things in plain sight.

[ ] Restore old buildings
DC 21 Make use of your knowledge of architecture to renovate old crumbling houses. After having rebuilt them all you can make a tidy profit off of having others live there. Alternatively you could restore historical sites for the good PR.

[ ] Build a panic room
DC 26 A panic room would give you a place to hide if worst comes to worst and someone breaches LexCorp tower. You run into all sorts of unsavory people in this business and you can never be too prepared. This option would keep you safe even if your tower is somehow breached and an intruder gets past the defenses.

[ ] Build mining operations
DC 35 A chance for you to seize the means of production. By buying up all of the materials you need to make your tech projects you can mess with their pricing and the business synergy is sure to drive up profits

[ ] Build production facilities
DC 40 By making more production facilities you can make more products and thus make more profit. It's a safe way to improve your company

[ ] Create a media company
DC 26 With the Lex-Phone you have created a platform from which you can easily deliver and distribute messages. Creating a media company will allow you to shape the course of how society thinks and make a tidy profit doing so

[ ] Build food production facilities
DC 21 While LexCorp doesn't make food itself it does have patents to several genetically modified plants. Because of this LexCorp could easily go into business in this field. By creating these production facilities you will show a willingness to step up to the plate and expand LexCorp in new directions

[ ] Build a hospital
DC 52 Taking a move from an old rival of yours (Wayne Enterprises) LexCorp could build a hospital. While you want to make sure it could compete with the Wayne's hospital (a daunting task considering their companies specialization) you are sure it could be done. On top of that a hospital would give you easy access to human test subjects to use for less ethical experiments.

[ ] Build your own custom vehicle
DC ??? (Depends on the type of vehicle made. If a car DC 23, if a boat DC 34 and if a plane DC 45) Having your own personal vehicle is an incredibly useful thing if you need to get around. Sure anything you use for yourself is likely too expensive to be brought to market but the numerous features and the convenience of this option still makes it a useful investment

[ ] Go green
DC 38 Dr. Isley has given numerous ideas on how to make your company more eco-friendly. Helping maintain the planet not only is good (you rather enjoy the air you breathe and the water you drink) but following through on your promises to Dr. Isley would help increase her loyalty towards you.

[ ] Create Vegan meat substitute
DC 10 A rather niche development but a rather safe one that might lead to some interesting results.

[ ] Compost
DC 28 One man's trash is another man's treasure. Admittedly a rather cliche phrase but with a new composting program you can use other people's trash to grow things that others treasure and thus make more money. Plus this is a good PR move

[ ] Purchase real estate
DC 0 (I'm going to roll a d100 and how good the land you bought is dependent on how high the roll is) Land is always something that is useful to have. When you own the land you can set the rules on what goes down their

[ ] Invest in a startup company
DC 0 (I'm going to roll a d100 and how good the tech company is and how much it benefits from the investment is dependent on how high the roll is) Sometimes startups can surprise you. By buying up interesting startups early you can expand LexCorp and begin to break into new markets

[ ] Create shell companies
DC 50 A rather expensive investment and one that is slightly illegal but if successful will allow you to secretly funnel money and materials without anyone else being the wiser.

[ ] Hire Ex-Cons
DC 13 Oftentimes people who are caught breaking the law are utterly unable to get work. This would make them extremely devoted to you if you were to offer them jobs at LexCorp since it would beat every other option they have. On top of that hiring ex-cons may give you good PR and change societal views on certain crimes. Sounds like a win-win-win to you. And you like winning. (Note if this option is selected a sub-vote on the type of ex-con's you hire will occur).

[ ] Renovate your office
DC 28 Your office is what everyone sees when they walk in to meet you. Currently it's not dissimilar from what your father had. It's adequate but for someone as important as yourself more impressive lodgings are needed.

[ ] Buy a house
DC ??? (I'm going to roll a D100 and then that will trigger a list of options which you can then select which each have their own "DC cost" that you can spend the roll to buy). While you may be the face brains and head of LexCorp you are not the company. You need your own private place to live. Finding a suitable place should be easy enough.

[ ] Purchase Risk Management Firm: There are quite a few PI and Risk Management Firms whose job it is to minimize the risk of various investments through pro-active investigation. With the recent attack on LexCorp and the industry disruption that Lex plans on doing, it's not a bad idea to buy the largest and most prestigious of these firms for LexCorp's own use. The in-house attorneys at Siegel and Shuster would appreciate it, at least.

[ ] Renovate LexCorp Tower
DC 0 (the higher the roll the more stuff you can add and change) Your tower could use some improvements. By modifying the layout and decor of the building you can change how people are affected by the environment. Furthermore renovations would allow you to insert numerous things that previously were not possible to have.

[ ] Develop a social media platform
DC 54 The internet is still rather new in its current state and isn't thoroughly organized. By creating a revolutionary new type of site in which people would interact with each other and use it to manage interpersonal relationships would allow you to gain a lot of metrics on a lot of people and possibly make a ton of money in advertising.

[ ] Lead an expedition to find rare plants and animals
DC 30 Dr. Isley has pointed out that there are numerous plants animals that could have beneficial effects that the world has not yet discovered. Leading an expedition to find these things could enable you to have a monopoly on some vastly successful new product.

Intrigue: Information is incredibly important especially when fanatics are out for your blood and you have been framed as having called out their leader. Getting to the bottom of the mystery surrounding the League of Shadows is rather urgent right now.

[ ] Investigate inside the company
DC 40 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

[ ] Investigate the five dead assassins
DC 20 You aren't sure what happened with the assassins who were killed in custody but the way they were killed seems to be an attempt to frame you as someone who wants to fight this "Ra's al Ghul". Figure out who would do such a thing and how they managed to commit the murders in the way they did

[ ] 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 before committing to retaliating against the League of Shadows for the attempt on your life.

[ ] Destroy Jason Woodrue's reputation
DC 5 You do not appreciate anyone spreading baseless slander about your employee's. Woodrue is a bug but destroying the man might serve as a warning for others to think twice before running their mouth off about how terrible you are. Unlike Lois it is very easy to discredit the man as a bitter jealous ex who abused his position to solicit your employee when she was his student and all of that is just surface level information. What would you find if you dug a little deeper. On top of that Dr. Isley would likely appreciate you defending her reputation and punishing those who would tarnish it out of spite.

[ ] Steal Art
DC 42 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 5 for Stagg Enterprises, DC 27 for S.T.A.R. Labs DC 45 for Wayne Enterprises. 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
DC 84 for Stagg Enterprises, DC 24 for S.T.A.R. Labs, 52 for Wayne Enterprises. 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 23 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

[ ] 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

[ ] Build surveillance satellites
DC 54 Spy satellites are not a new concept. However with your recent uptick in security they seem like a wise investment on your part. Having your own spy satellites not linked to the government seems like an ideal after all the law hasn't really had to deal with a private citizen using this technology to monitor others so legally you are in the clear

[ ] Upgrade the surveillance system in LexCorp
DC 62 there is no such thing as too paranoid. Being able to plant even more bugs and cameras can only help you in the long run, especially now that the tower has been breached once. You do not want a repeat incident. Furthermore most of your surveillance is focused inwards. Perhaps you should focus on outwards surveillance as well

[ ] 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.

[ ] Create a worldwide spy network
DC 72 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

[ ] 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) Information is important. Not knowing your employees 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.

[ ] Steal 40 cakes
DC 0 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.

Learning: You have hired two new minds. It would be an utter shame to waste them. LexCorp thrives based off of its ability to constantly innovate. You along with your new hires will easily be able to replicate the company's history of success

[ ] Learn about biology
DC 30 Learning about biology would give you a greater understanding of how life works the secrets of our genome and so much more. You will be able to build a better human cure diseases and improve the frailties of flesh.

[ ] Learn more about cybernetics
DC 23 On the other hand if you want to improve humanity an easier solution would be to replace the hardware altogether. Cybernetics is the field of integrating machinery into living creatures. The avenues this opens up is incredible and you can't wait to see what lies down that road

[ ] Learn about chemistry
DC 36 Chemistry is a practical field. The science of substances will allow you to create new polymers and metals to build your products with. You can also develop chemical weapons with this knowledge although you would have to do so in secret

[ ] Learn about Kryptonite
DC 28 Kryptonite is a strange semi-stable material that gives off a unique form of radiation not found in any other material on earth. You believe that by analyzing Kryptonite you could possibly find the next great power source. Who knows maybe you could even weaponize it the same way people weaponized nuclear power

[ ] Learn about robotics
DC 35 Robotics is the field of constructing automatons to help make tasks easier for humanity. There is a great deal of potential in this field especially in military fields

[ ] Learn about psychology
DC 56 While not a hard science like what you normally prefer psychology is still very useful for you to learn. Learning psychology will allow you to pick apart how others think and thus twist them to your own ends.

[ ] Learn about sociology
DC 42 Gives a lot of the same advantages as psychology but instead allows you better understanding of the masses. An individual can be smart but people as a collective are easily lead by someone who knows what they are doing

[ ] Learn more about engineering
DC 26 A general all purpose field of study that can yield results in a variety of different fields. It's always nice to go back to what you know

[ ] Learn about space
DC 33 Additional research is required before the SpaceLex program can truly get off the ground. Being able to understand how to navigate space and construct things for that harsh environment offers numerous opportunities and benefits for oneself. On top of that you do rather like the idea of being the man who conquered the final frontier.

[ ] Learn about the ocean
DC 28 Equally as mysterious as space but much more easily accessible is the depths of the ocean. Studying the deep could provide insight into our planet and open up new avenues for technology. Also if you want to get into the shipping industry it might be best to get a leg up on the competition

[ ] Learn about computers
DC 31 Computers are a relatively new field that tends to have an increasingly large amount of influence in how the world is run. With the internet in its fledgling state it may be worthwhile to learn as much as you can to dominate this relatively young field.

[ ] Improve phones
DC 27 If you want to dominate the cell phone market you need your product to blow every competitors' out of the water. You're sure if you devote a little bit of time to this relatively minor task then you can easily revolutionize the whole market and thus dominate the field. Only the best for LexCorp

[ ] Improve prosthetics
DC 48 Your prosthetics while capable of matching human capabilities cannot surpass them. The issue is one of integrating above human capabilities into a human while still retaining necessary prerequisites (like fine motor control). While you aren't the biggest fan of biology you do think you can come up with a suitable solution for this.

[ ] Improve weapons
DC 3 LexCorp is at its heart a weapons company. As such it would be remiss of you to ignore the cornerstone with which it was built. Improving your weapons is likely to improve your companies stock as a whole and make your regulars very happy.

[ ] Improve armor
DC 12 Defense is as important as offense in warfare. LexCorp is the leader in weaponry so should also be able to produce the world's greatest armor to completely dominate the military market. On top of that armor would be very useful at stopping further assassination attempts.

[ ] Improve Exosuits
DC 46 Your exosuits are still rather rudimentary. Perhaps by looking for ways to improve them you can gain even greater rewards and improve on the concept as a whole.

[ ] Research botany
DC 60 (DC 20 if Pamela Isley assigned) Dr. Isley has an in-depth knowledge of plant life and has given numerous suggestions as to how they can be used to create products that will make LexCorp money. Looking into this field may net you numerous bonuses

[ ] Research Hydroponics
DC 35 A new way to farm sounds like an excellent way to support LexCorp's image and make a lot of money in the process. If it truly is successful perhaps you can further expand your synergistic businesses in the food sector.

[ ] Create the automobile of tomorrow
DC 27 By reinventing the phone LexCorp was able to make a mint and expand in a hitherto unseen way. Perhaps by redefining another machine that everyone uses (the automobile) you will be to replicate the success.

[ ] The A.M.A.Z.O. project
DC 100 (DC 50 if Ivo assigned) This is Dr. Ives personal obsession. The A.M.A.Z.O. project is a project to create the perfect machine body that a human mind can be uploaded to. While not likely to prove useful immediately the side benefits could be significant. If Dr. Ives is not assigned to this he will be displeased. (This option must be successfully cleared 25 times before being completed).

[ ] Meditate
DC ??? Some introspection and insight can lead to interesting results and thought processes. Perhaps this is needed for you to break into completely unheard of heights? (a hero must be assigned to this action).

[ ] Research alternative medicine
DC 46 You don't personally put much stock into alternative medicine but you don't see any reason to leave a single stone unturned. If you do find something successful with this then you can laugh at everyone who might mock you for this seemingly ridiculous enterprise.

[ ] Create a hair formula
DC 102 Numerous people have been creating "Hair grow sprays" to scam people out of their money. If you can successfully create an actual hair growth formula then you will outright kill the market and have tons of insecure men lining up to buy your product.

[ ] External education reform
DC 45 Begin teaching the youth of Metropolis by building schools and instituting a new educational program. By cultivating the next generation you will be able to begin cultivating more resources for yourself to use later on. Plus it never hurts to slip in a little more propaganda

[ ] Write-in
All write-ins are subject to QM approval. Upon being approved the option will be sorted into a category and given a DC. It will then be inserted into the options for this vote and the next few votes going forward. On top of that successful write-ins will give 100 exp which can be donated to any stat.

DC 23 Assassin's got into LexCorp tower. This is utterly unacceptable. You will do everything in your power to ensure that there will not be a repeat incident of something like this.
[X] Donate to injured veterans
DC 10 As a company that supplies the US military many of its favorite bits of gear, LexCorp is heavily supported by veterans. With your new prosthetics you can easily give back to injured vets. Not only does this increase your popularity among veterans but it also gives you an easy recruitment pool for talented individuals.

  • We need something 'worthy' (computers, robotics, cybernetics, or amazo) to assign Ivo to, to keep him productive and thus happy.
