Turn 1 results phase part 1- Heroes For Hire:
These pasts few months have been excellent for Heroes For Hire. You had an incredible success in some areas and you are really, really, really glad that you asked Danny and Shang for help. You've truly upgraded your office in terms of appearance and might have gotten some new work that will pay quite well because of how much people are interested in you right now.
[ ]
Patrol an area: Harlem
15 DC
71+17 (Power Man's Martial stat)= 88
Astounding Success
You loved it when you knew that the home and soul of the neighborhood was safe and sound. For the last three months you have been going every street, every alleyway and every little crack in Harlem to make sure no crime is taking place. You had managed to find several small gangs of punks that were fighting each over using their Quirks, so you stopped the fighting and reprimanded their behavior.
"You have no shame?! Think about your families before going to kill one another! We're brothers, every last one of us! Treat each other as such!" you told them before taking them to the police. It took a long lecture from your heart, but you tried your best to convince them them to stop forming gangs and help their elder to make a better, more caring community.
When you took them to the police, you asked them to be lenient with the boys since they can be better people.
Aside from that you managed to find several people who were smuggling the Trigger drug into the streets of Harlem, as well as shit like Crystal Meth, Cocaine and all that garbage. You brought them to the police for interrogation and from there you managed to find more dealers, mediators. Eventually you didn't see a single crime being committed in the open, and for now criminals know not to do any crimes in the open while you are around.
Now you just have to flush out the bigger organizations.
Result: The streets of Harlem are clean of crime. Harlem cannot be patrolled for the next 3 turns. Intrigue options unlocked.

Hire Support Staff
35 DC
45+13 (Shang-Chi's Diplomacy stat)= 58
Significant Success
It seemed like Shang-Chi did a pretty fine work in finding guys who can help you around the office. Apparently he searched on the yellow pages for instigators, engineers, lawyers and repairmen and managed to meet with several people. Apparently they really liked Shang's calming aura and demeanor and they jumped at the opportunity to work for a Hero Agency. Now you have several more people at your disposal for help with repairing maintaining the damn place and deal with the paperwork.
Result: Gain 11 Support Staff units.
[ ]
Meet with another agency
20 DC
96
Spectacular Success
Sweet Christmas, you did not expect this. You had searched around the Hero Network for every email of every Hero Agency around New York City and sent them an email, hoping that at least one of them would be willing to meet with you.
Man oh man, you did not expect for over a dozen of these agencies to return your emails and request to meet up. Apparently almost every hero in the city heard about your case and seemed very interested to speak with you. However, you could only have so much time to meet with so many people. Maybe one or two would be enough.
Result: Set a Meeting sub vote.
[ ]
Send an application for support items
10 DC
5
Bare Failure
Unfortunately you didn't manage your time well enough to get to actually filling the support items application and the empty sheet just sits on your table for three long months. Well, it's not like you're using support items anyway.
Result: Can try again next turn.
[ ]
Buy better equipment
0 DC
77+14 (Iron Fist's Stewardship stat)= 91
Stupendous Success
Damn, you really are glad that you requested Danny to help you with buying some new equipment. The guy literally went and got an incredibly upgraded police radio scanner, which would now allow you to listen to every broadcast the cops send for help, so that you can arrive like any other hero to actual situations at hand. He also bought you an actual damn heater that actually works well. Your office has never felt warmer.
There were some more aesthetic changes that he made thanks to a nice couch, a pretty old TV screen and some new stern chairs. He spent a bit of money, but you actually look like a proper, modern day Hero Agency.
Result: Gained a new police scanner (new Martial actions unlocked) and some new furniture for your leisure. -4,000 dollars.
[ ] Check on the internet for the latest hero news
20 DC
29
Bare Success
You didn't have a lot of time to really check on the current hero news, but you did read one or two articles on the Daily Bugle Page, but that's about it. There weren't that many that sounded really important, rather more of the usual such as:
"Wonder Woman puts a wrench in Dr. Psycho's plans" or "Mole Man attacks Bludhaven once again, only to be stopped by Nightwing".
It wasn't really interesting and that only included the ones from the U.S.
All in all, not very interesting.
Result: You know about a few fights that took place in the last 3 months.
Social Actions:
[ ] Luke - Hit the club
Rolled 17
You managed to relive some stress from all the work you were doing for your neighborhood by going sometimes to enjoy the clubs. It was obviously very noisy in there, but people seemed to have fun. You have fun and you drank plenty of bottles.
One night you noticed one hell of a woman at the bar who was alone and gave you an inviting look. You went to talk to her and you two seemed to really enjoy talking about your favorite drinks, which hers was scotch, and about football, which she sarcastically joked about how you were probably playing as guard tackle on your highschool team. You two then spend a long time on the dance floor dancing like idiots as you were both completely wasted. The next thing you remembered was waking up in your own bed with a massive hangover. Later on that day you saw a text message on your phone that read:
Hey handsome, had a blast last night. You're a really fun guy to talk to.
Next time we meet expect it to be only about business, hot shot.
Misty
You didn't really know what to make about that message, but maybe you'll see her again.
Result: You unofficially met Misty Knight.
[ ] Danny - Meet a former member of The Hand
Rolled 9
Danny didn't want anyone else knowing what he was doing tonight. This was very important to him, the reason he left Kung Long. He wasn't going to get his friends involved in his business until it got to the point that things would go beyond his control. At the moment all he needed were clues to where they were hiding.
That's why he needed to meet this person tonight. He made sure to lie about where he was going. He traveled in the alleyways to make sure nobody saw him. It took a long time until he reached the destination that was set for the meeting. It was in a small part in Manhattan around midnight, so you came in regular clothes that were as dark as possible as to not be seen that well. He had to be cautious, knowing this might well be a trap.
He went to sit on a bench that was in an area filled with trees, just so he could be seen by the one he was supposed to meet with, constantly looking around with his eyes darting in case he came under attack either from The Hand or someone else. He had to be cautious.
He finally noticed someone and turned around with his fist cocked and glowing, only for it to stop inches away from the face of a person with a bandana around most of her face.
"Who are you?" he asked with caution as his body was tense and his Iron Fist was ready to continue it's strike at any moment.
"Are you the Iron Fist?" the woman asked as she spoke with incredible calmness to her voice, managing to remain calm in the face of the glowing fist mere inches away from her face.
"What's it to you? Are you the one who agreed to meet with me? Or are you an assassin sent by The Hand?" he asked her as a bit of anger rose to his voice, his own impatience appearing slightly as his body began to shake and a veins bulged on his arm trying to hold himself back.
"I'm the one who contacted you." she said as there was a short moment of silence between the two as Danny's right fist stopped glowing. "I also have a bit of information for you about The Hand." she said as she gave him an old USB Flash Drive. "This doesn't have much but I believe you can find some information on their plans. Unfortunately I know that I'm being tracked right now, so I can't stay any longer." she told Danny before running away as quickly as possible.
Danny was still incredibly suspcitious of the woman, but he still put the USB in the pocket of his jacket before putting on the hoodie of his jacket over his head.
After several minutes of walking away from the meeting, he started hearing footstep across the back, he then immediately hid somewhere that he couldn't be seen, where the cloak of darkness would cover him completely. After several seconds he heard several people grouping around a certain area.
"Are you sure she's supposed to meet the Iron Fist in this park? We can't allow any of them to escape." a man's voice spoke with authority as Danny moved slowly to slip away as quietly as he could from this group of warriors from The Hand. He could probably take them on, and he wanted to, but right now he needed to look at the flash drive first.
While The Hand kept their searching throughout the park, Danny had managed to leave and reach into his appartment a few hours later.
Result: Danny gains a small amount of info on The Hand.
[ ] Shang-Chi - Look for clues around Chinatown as to any plans Fu Manchu is making
Rolled 5
Unfortunately, Shang-Chi was too busy meeting with people for the last three months for him to really focus on finding info about his father's plans.
Result: Shang-Chi doesn't do anything.
