Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

Is this pre retcon catwoman or post brainwash retcon black cat in terms of personality?

Do we have reference, like thefts happening in Gotham, pet themed stuff being stolen etc.

I'm not really up to date with modern Batman comics, so I'm not quite sure about how her personality in this matches up.

As for reference - I'm planning an informational update that will give some info on what other heroes and villains are getting up to. It'll either be the update directly before or directly after the next main turn.

When we make the next version of the batsuit we should consider maybe including something to prevent forensic identification.


Well it's the early days right now so superman isn't known as anything more then a red and blue blur fliting around helping folk and Lex is currently just a shady businessman rather then a supervillain obsessing over superman and somehow both holding onto his company and avoiding getting arrested even though he keeps blatantly acting out as a supervillain.

As for the cat she's in it for the thrill so robbing LexCorp would be something she's just fine with, maybe not so much after Lex starts stomping around in battlemechs and surviving fistfights with a physical god but until then LexCorp is fair game.

Absolutely an option.

As for Lex, he's well known as a ruthless businessman, but no one who isn't part of his inner circle knows quite how much of a criminal he is. Superman hasn't made his public appearance, yet, as well, so Lex isn't quite as unhinged as he will be later.

[X] Refuse - You'll fight your battle with LexCorp within the law

What would Bruce do if he learns of this and what does catwomen get out of this? There might be more going on. Also if police finds out it will be jail time.

See, I'm kind of mixed here: On the one hand, I don't really feel like we'll actually be making use of her capabilities or fighting LexCorp any time soon. On the other hand, "the number wouldn't hurt, and if she's acting as a freelancer, we might be able to pass the number onto the boss, with the understanding that this is someone who can help him gather information, but is also a thief, so watch be careful with when you call her".

Then we can let him decide whether to use her as an under-the-table asset for his running around in a suit beating people up. I can understand why people would choose to Refuse, though.

Basically though, my stance is "take the card, but hand it off to the boss, see if he wants to use it".

Just to clarify - this is just a choice to keep her as an option, not necessarily use her right away. There'll be an option next turn to tell Bruce about this and get his feedback, as well.

Yeah, since Catwoman's personality has varied from cat burglar to vigilante to mad bomber, I would like clarification on just who we're maybe making a deal with here.

She's definitely not in the vigilante camp yet, and I don't see her ever becoming a mad bomber.

This version of Catwoman is a talented young thief, having recently graduated from pickpocketing and house breaking as a teenager, into professional crime. She's been going after bigger and bigger targets lately, trying to build a reputation for herself as skilled and reliable enough to be trusted with big jobs.

I'm honestly hoping to use Catwoman mainly for corporate counter-espionage. Point out holes in our security, maybe even have her search for corruption within Wayne Enterprises. Even Bruce "criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot" Wayne would probably have a difficult time saying no to that.

An excellent narrative beat of a chapter and a good potential addition to out arsenal of tricks.
 
I've got an idea for a potential method of retaliation against Lexcorp. What if we have Catwoman plant Etch-A-Sketch's in a variety of sensitive locations. Counting coup should reduce the risks of escalation or Wayne getting angry with us. Might even get a chuckle out of Lex Luthor as well.
