First time making samosas from scratch; also making fried pakoras, fruit salad, and daal. I can't wait to try it all~

Maybe I'll play Cyberpunk 2077 some more. My brother maxed out my character a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. Miss him.

”Mr. Dawson, why don't you have a seat?” He said, gesturing to the brown leather chair he had his hand resting on.
The men behind Adel stepped forward. They each placed a firm hand around his upper arms, half-guiding, half-dragging Adel to the seat. If Adel struggled in any way, their plan would have been quickly subduing him with a blow to the cheek - but besides tensing up, the man didn’t fight.
They shoved Adel into the seat, twisting it so it faced the mirror. Vincent still had that smirk on his face as he picked up a bowl of shaving cream and an applicator brush on the counter.
Slowly, methodically, Vincent applied shaving cream to Adel's face while speaking.
”Now, my men tell me that you and your spies have decided to make it your home in White Pine. Not that I care too much about that.”
He set down the bowl, picking out a barber's blade instead. He opened it, the fresh gleam of a clean, sharp blade within.
“What I really care about, though, is who set you up to do this.”
The blade pressed against Adel's neck as Vincent leaned over, staring at the man through the mirror.
"A million times I have done this charade. The moment people figure it out, I get the boot." she thought.
"But don't you want to see the fear in their eyes when they see who you really are...? Don't you want dominion of this place, just like how you were unchallenged in Vaal Kastrix?" said the Voice.
Ciara scoffed, immediately thinking of Gulliver and Valen. "I'd love to wipe the smirk off their faces."
"It starts by building a rumor. A rumor of power. This could be the place to start."
She took a deep breath, narrowing her eyes resolutely at the Undermage. "Head Advisor, with all due respect, you have no right to ask me about my intentions. If you want answers..."
She stood from her seat, rising to her full height.
@Pumpkinlord I have plans to rob a bank in Nova City, possibly with Gremlin, possibly with Crimson. That might be enough of an inciting incident to get a lot of heroes involved~ what do you think? 🤔
It can happen right away, or it can happen later, depending on what your plans are.
So what's the current Hero v Villain count? I have been asleep (also UK time) so I'm a bit messed up. I have my villain pretty much finished from before I said I could go hero but if we have a closer number I may just stick with my villain, I could be the arch-nemesis of @ManyThings at this point, too, considering my villain is based on a fire theme
Edit: In fact, reading over my CS as it stands makes it so incredibly poignant for him to be the arch-nemesis of Sir Articus, it's like they were made for each other!
We have 3 villains and 1 hero, but we could always do with more villains- 😉
I think one of the issues I thought of while thinking about this roleplay is that although comic book heroes are all from different locales, will that style translate well to RP? Like, how will characters be able to interact with one another if we're all a hero/villain set in different cities? Or are we just going to write our own one-off comic book style arcs?
I'm currently set in Nova City, and as far as I'm aware, Goblin and Crimson Flame don't have a city set. So, why don't we all just choose Nova City so we can be in close proximity to each other?
