Lucien glanced around. He would handle things in order of severity. "Alicia please stay. This is a trial mission. I will have field jobs for you, I just need to know more about each of you. Your eyes have nothing to do with me leaving you out." He began and then sighed. "Besides, you're going to miss all of the fun of our initiation party." he added. He then turned to the others. "We're working on non-lethal terms here, we're not monsters. The only people you should give the full brunt of your power are the Heroes, noone else."

He then paused, "As for the number you shall receive, you may add that to your contacts as Archibald, this number can be used to contact my butler. If you need anything, Money, Food, a place to stay, a ride somewhere, Archibald can help you."

He also paused, "Feel free to use the number from this mornings text to contact me. You may put it down as Lucien Cain, I trust you with my actual name. If I end up on the execution stand because I was ratted out, I'll know who to haunt." with that he shut up and sipped his coffee.

Then victors question surfaced in his mind. "You can expect various locks and cameras. I'm going to hack the system and down the cameras beforehand. As for damage..." he contemplated this for a moment. "Cripple it, but don't bankrupt the man. I plan on buying him out from under the Elect, get his profits working for us..."
