>Hello,
>We are putting together another Suicide Squad and I am putting you in charge.
>But Task Force X has eaten up most of the budget.
>So you have 15k that goes to catching and housing your squad,you need to fill 6 spots
>Assign each member a Monetary Value. Then we will Decided if they are worth that value.
GET TO IT!
How much to get Darkseid?
>Grifter- $2,000
>Solomon Grundy- $2,500
>Scarecrow-$1,000
>Giganta-$3,000
>Cheetah-$3,000
>Plasticman-$3500
Scarecrow is too much of a nutjob. The rest of those guys can follow orders but Scarecrow would fuck off and poison civilians with LCD the first chance he gets
Thats why you need scarecrow hes a wild card
> Scarecrow is the wild card
> The chick with superspeed that eats hearts is perfectly fine though
Cheetah is a team-player.
Luthor let both Cheetah and Scarecrow on the Legion of Doom I'm sure its fine
Condiment King- About $1,000 worth of sandwich and fast food sauces and additives. $1,000 a month for housing and entertainment; $2,000 all together.
$2,000 by himself, $3,000 with KSh
Clock King- Doesn't require much other than clocks and other timers to fiddle with. Ranges from $5-$3000 a month depending on mood.
Amused: $5
Mediocre: $1000
Bored: $3000
King Shark- Very angry shark man, needs $5000 to stay pacificated. Cannot be roomed with King Snake, Clock King, King Tut or King of Cats. Oddly enough is friendly with Condiment King, living expenses for King Shark go down by $3000 when roomed with Condiment King, however Condiment King's expenses go up by $1000 in that scenario.
Alone: $5000, Room with CK: $3000
King of Cats: $1000 a month for him, $4000 for his 10 big cats and his three house cats. Will occassionally bring home strays. Do not let the cats near King Shark or vice versa.
$5000 all together
King Tut- He actually doesn't cost anything as long as you make him think that this is his royal court of fellow Kings, and that he is an emissary of his kingdom.
King Snake: Incredibly powerful martial artist who only asks for 80's cassette tapes and some decent food. $1,000, should be asking a lot more.
With perfect organization, the budget is exactly 15,000
Without perfect organization and assuming Clock King gets bored; $16,000
For the Suicide Kings inititive to propely work, I suggest the Organized method while entertaining Clock King to a moderate level and we can actually be under budget if in case King of Cats brings in more strays, or King Shark decides on something other than Hot Sauce and Olive Pimentos to gorge on.
Dude $15,000 isn't nearly a big enough budget for basically anything let alone catching and housing superhumans. The first Evil Dead movie was made by broke college students and it cost $350,000 to make
Fuck that, let's just use the money to clone six Bronze Tigers. He was the only one who wasn't a crazy idiot anyway.
Do you seriously think you could clone someone let alone a metahuman with their powers intact and aged to adulthood for $2,500 a pop?
C'mon son
In the DC universe, yes, very easily. Luthor clones Superman every other week.
10/10 Would watch.
>Plastic Man
>Woozy Wonks
>Kite-Man hell yeah
>Earaserhead
>Bueno Excellante
>Grant Morrison can be payed in hyper bucks
>Zack Snyder
>op wants to pretend he can get a superhero team with his annual salary
How much does a couch cost?
...
1-Get Constantine and give him the 15k, he gets whoever you need.
Pay Constantine 15k to call in some favours.
>Task Force X has eaten up most of the budget
>So you have 15k
...okay, Ms. Waller.
Copperhead- $2000 (AKA the human sacrifice)
Black Manta- $2000 (We can probably take care of "capturing" him by promising to fuck with Aquaman a couple of times in exchange for his help, make a weird clone of him or some shit.)
Bane- $2500
Shade- $2500
Toyman- $3000
Cheetah- $3000
Mr. Atom- $3,000: a robot that can fight with Captain Marvel on peer terms
Mr. Freeze- $2,000: It's DC, we need a cold guy. Plus we can promise him access to government resources to cure Nora.
Jinx- $1,000: We need someone with magic that can work for us dirt cheap.
Blackfire- $3,000: Another flying brick won't hurt us and will fit in places Mr. Atom can't go immediately.
Gentleman Ghost- $4,000: He's a fucking ghost.
And this guy- $2, 000: This prisoner plans for everything.
Your first mission is in Freeside
...
I would love a story about their handler working behind the scenes to ensure everything goes smoothly and constantly doing damage control when one of the kings goes over the top.
btw, Suicide King is an actual DC character.
>Black Manta being this cheap
The guy's not only the greatest foe of a powerhouse like Aquaman (think about how many humans are actually dangerous to demigods, only Luthor in suit or fucking Batman tier), but also the guy has it´s own bat-tech, vehicles and even a fucking private army. I think he would be expensive AS FUCK.
Actually, his most recent run on the Suicide Squad happened just because Waller kidnapped him after being beaten by Aquaman on its own book.
this.
for 15.000 you´ll just get some really mediocre jobber like Electrocutioner, and only if being beated before by some hero and really in need of cash.
But well OP, you can always dress yourself like a mob with a gimmick like "the Bowling Man", and hire a bunch of hobbos and call them The Pins or some shit like that. You´ll be a fun villain to any given street level hero on his early days!
Yeah, I know; I was trying to imply that the "cost" of capturing him was just promising to fuck with Aquaman/help him to fuck with Aquaman, and that the $2000 was basically just for housing him.
