That's fine! :) If Joe's gonna be Ed's partner, it's probably a good idea to write a char app for him. Doesn't have to be fancy and you don't need to worry about a RP sample since you've already RP'd in the IC.

One day, after work, he went to a local bar, and ran into Ed, who he didn't know had moved to Gotham as well. Shortly after the alien ship crashed, Ed called Joe up, and asked him if he would want to help fight crime with his hunting rifle. Joe agreed, and took on the codename The Rifleman, due to his expertise with a rifle.

No...The Historian has good taste. He's after stuff with historical significance, not Bingum's tacky, overpriced crap! :lol:

Well, if Philipp Really wanted more money, then probably.
He likes history, but he's not completely insane.
At this heist most of the stuff there is to gain money, he just wants the sword of osman for himself.

Some of the more expensive things are Queen Marie Jose’s emerald and diamond necklace, The Elephant Diamond, the Dresden Green, the Marie-Louise Diadem, the Cora Sun-Drop Diamond, the Hortensia Diamond, and more.

Sapphires, rubies, intricate gold and silver necklaces, topaz, jade, diamonds, onyx, pearls . . . there is easily 1-2 Billion USD in the five rooms with her displayed jewellery collection.

You could make a fortune even stealing one piece.

He no longer cares about money. Only vengeance. He can take all the money he wants with his powers, and he knows that. What mattered to him there is that he spited the Order and Crimson by burning down one of their “holy places” and ultimately scared them. His first strategy to flush out the cultists is to terrify them into submission, though he knows this likely won’t work. If worse comes down to worst, he will not hesitate to start hunting the other reapers

Don't fall for it, Skarten, it's a trap! The only thing she's got is the world's largest collection of velvet, dogs playing poker paintings! :lol:

It would, but she only rented some of her inexpensive trinkets to the museum. Besides, the insurance payout would more than compensate for the loss!

Also, beware stealing them. It will lead to a lot of fun for the readers, but not for your character.

If he wants to terrify them into submission, he should just show them one of Bingum's dogs playing poker paintings! :p

You can tell because in one of the rooms of her house she has over 50 cat mummies from ancient Egypt.

More like 50 of her pet cats that died and she wrapped up like mummies because she's one of those cat-hoarding crazy ladies. :lol:

Speaking of cats, I am actually surprised that we haven't had a Catwoman yet, as she is a fairly major character.
