The gag was that she was with the villains the whole time this RP has been going on, from post #1. We're on week 3 now.

Edit - But hey. We'll make it work. I'll try to be clearer in the future.

Okay, also sorry about that.

All is forgiven. One question though. With the entrance she made, do the villains know Asku or not? That might help any players responding. Like, had they seen her before at the meeting, or is this the first time they ever meet?

We are! And we're just getting started! Can't wait to see Matthew back.

The Heroes have the task of delivering Flubegone 2.0, a medicine to fight the Wombat Flu, plaguing Orient. We have half the town to cover. We give it to both healthy and sick people, to their houses. Oh, and we just got a bunch to deliver from the National Guard.

Captain Calculator's not there, because he's at work. Everyone else is, though.

Absolutely! I think that would be quite funny, to have a character who sleeps in - PAST 7:00 PM. He could arrive on scene anytime now, since they're all just right outside the Senior Center, which is next door to the Town Legion Hall where the Infinites meet.

So, do any villains have any ideas as to how to get the downed power line out from behind Jason's car, so you all can reverse? Or are you just going to have to walk this time?

I can post tonight. Blimp Man won't be helping in that respect.
I use my NationStates stats, because a population of billions/trillions and an economy of hundreds of trillions is totally viable, trust me.
But seriously, aside from the population and GDP, just assume that my NS stats are roughly accurate.

Name: Jimmy James Jameson (JJJ)
Codename: The police call him Saucy Man, though he would prefer to be called a "Condiment and Pizza Topping Enthusiast"
Age: 34
Sex: Male
Appearance: He has a neckbeard and likes to wear a trench coat (to hide his condiments and disgusting pizza toppings) and a fedora (to hide his bald spot). He is usually driving this car (without the worm of course) Image
Biography: JJJ was never an ordinary kid. While other kids were playing outside, JJJ was discovering Coca-Cola's secret recipe (it's how he got his bald spot, but that is a looong story). While other kids his age wanted to be astronauts and presidents, JJJ wanted to start his own mustard company. JJJ started the path to his future career early. he studied hard and got accepted into the prestigious Minnesota Institute of Pizza Toppings. There JJJ spent his days developing different pizza toppings and condiments.
Powers: Can transform any kind of pizza into anchovy pizza. If it is anchovy pizza it will become double anchovy pizza. He also carries a condiment gun which allows him to shoot condiments at people. Can make condiment packets unopenable, and can make them explode on your face. He can turn ketchup into Tabasco sauce.


Describe your abilities: He can use his mind to telepathically change any pizza into anchovy pizza. He has designed an condiment gun (a bottle of any condiment and a trigger glued to it) which he shoots at any who stands in his way. He has the ability to make packets of ketchup virtually impossible to open. He can turn ketchup into Tabasco sauce as well.
Why did you turn to crime: JJJ chose the thug life because he needed to figure out why kids love cinnamon toast crunch. He ended up breaking into a bank and covering the guard's face in Alfredo sauce.
Why did you further become a supervillain: JJJ was forced to accept the path of the supervillain when he accidentally sauced the Governor of Arkansas. The police hunted him down for weeks. JJJ decides to hide in Orient, Minnesota until the police stop looking for him.
How do you feel about the Infinites: "Not saucy enough"-JJJ.
What's your end goal:Rule the world with a saucy fist (though becoming the richest man alive is enough for him)
You've captured the hero/heroine, what happens now: He makes them eat pizza without the cheese or the sauce until they give him their bank account number.
Do you plan out your monologues or do they just sort of happen: They just happen.
Let's hear a sample of your evil laugh (the noise you'd make when your plan is succeeding): He doesn't laugh. He just sings Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley in a high pitch voice.
Let's hear a sample of your evil roar (the noise you make when your plan is failing): He doesn't roar. He just angrily sings All Star by Smash Mouth.
Any lines you won't cross: He will never sauce kids.
Would you prefer an archenemy, or would you rather just drift around from rogues gallery to rogues gallery: He would like to drift around so he can sauce people equally.



Is this villain too overpowered?

Heck no! Ha ha ha! Definitely ACCEPTED! Welcome to the Infinites!

Ok, so here's the situation. We have a running gag here. And that is, your character has been a member of the villains this entire time of the RP, beginning at post 1. Saucy Man has been there, with them at their meetings. He just... never said anything. Or was completely ignored. Your choice. Now, however, beginning at your first post, he will be noticed now. The Infinites thread in the IC page has been going now for three weeks. Take that into account. (It's still summer).

The villains have all been hired by the mysterious Mr. Big to do a number of things. At first he promised them a million bucks each. However, due to general incompetence and failing to do their jobs, the amount has been sizeably decreased to around $250,000 each. Still. It's a lot of money. The last thing they were sent to do was lure the Infinites to a trap waiting for them at the Zeke Enterprises skyscraper (the only one in Orient, MN). Only problem is, there's a downed power line blocking the car they have normally been driving in, and so far no one's thought up how to move it. They are outside the home of the NPC villain, Ulterior Motive Man. (Oh, and the car is a complete wreck, full of shotgun shell holes on the outside, shotgun shell pellets on the inside, missing a door in the passenger rear, and with nasty looking damage on the front sides and hood.)

Have fun, and glad you're with us!

I don't think any truly polished speakers have ever been members of the Minnesota Infinites, ever since it's existence.

Either would be fine. It would all be volunteer, because he's not getting paid. And if you do pick to have a pr guy, realize he's not going to be successful at it at all. No one's heard of these guys. Except the villains for some reason.
