I decided I wanted to do a little Play by Post for events that take place between adventures. I'll put as much effort into your character's sub-plot as you show interest in by the quickness of your responses. If you don't respond to a Play by Post message I should be able to resolve any lingering plot events before the next session of Necessary Evil and give you a hand out prior to the game. Once I have all the names of the supers I should have one of these for each character.
Le Sante-
Its been a rough couple of years, after the V'isori attacked the bottom fell out of the stock market and anything having to do with Aerospace or defense was killed. Most of the companies you had contracts with to develop weapons systems etc were either destroyed or went completely under.
At one point you had one of the most beautiful mansions in Northpoint, but when the aliens took over, walled off Northpoint, and added the SoCorp headquarters to your zip code you decided to move most of your possessions to a warehouse in Westpoint across the alley from the research lab where you invented your armor.
You bought the 2nd floor of the research building with the last of your funds, decorated it as a private residence and dismissed anyone still drawing a corporate paycheck except your motherly personal Secretary "Shela."
Your still fairly well recognised as a famous millionaire playboy, and the fact that you have not become an alien sympathiser has been noticed both by the press and the V'isori, you gave a press statement saying you have decided to go into an early retirement to work on your golf game and of course no one believed it (your known to be a horrible golf player).
after being dropped off by Dr. Destroyer and any events at the warehouse...
You return to your lab and obsessively tinker with your armor... you are convinced if you can just up the amperage of your power converters you could get 5-10% more power into your force field.
Shela tries many times to demand where you were, what had happened, and tell you about your 200+ messages. Of course you blow her off until after you have finished with your obsessive need to tinker with the armor "just for five more minutes" (six hours ago)
Shela is dutifully waiting for you in the living room when you finally come up out of the lab, she warms up a plate of take out she had sent for hours ago and proceeds to tell you about what you've missed in the last few days...
1) a company called "lost Atlantis inc" has begun work with the V'isori to start pulling Atlantian artifacts up off the ocean floor... of course this has not been publicised.
2) That super model "Gislellede" called and said its over if you continue to refuse to work with the V'isori (you didn't remember dating her)
3) Your real estate agent "Denny" found a more suitable residence for you uptown near the college, overlooking the pool... as you requested... Shela pipes in that she believes if you actually move there you wont be able to pry your tongue or eyeballs off the picture windows, and says you defiantly cannot afford it right now... your first impulse is to call Denis (or whatever his name is) and write the check (you'll have to tell me what you decide)
4) your arch rival Ian Takihashi Moloch has announced his company "Cytec. mfg." has been making a killing working with and selling high tec devices to the V'isori and urges everyone to do their part to ease the transition. Shela adds "may he burn in hell." Just what kinds of high tech devices you have no idea and would really like to know.
5) Better homes and gardens has offered to do spread on your new living accommodations, however Shela says that the name of the piece is "oh how the mighty have fallen" and though it might be good press she thinks it will turn out to be a hack job.
Other than this there are endless announcements (Sixteen Weddings, two funerals, five barmitzvas, eight coronations, two baptisms, and an old college buddy that wants you to become his son's god father)
you spend about five minutes telling Shela that you must send gifts while she argues you no longer have the funds to do those kinds of things. in frustration you head back to the lab and fall asleep pulling apart the plasma relays.
you spend most of the next day working on the armor... your reading a note on the window Shela left that says if you want to send presents you need a new contract working for... somebody. when you get the call...
will resolve the rest at the game
