@dwarf- Baby Dwalus
Baby Dwalus uses his cute baby-ness to lure people into a dark alleyway under the illusion that he had got lost from his parents. Then Baby Dwalus would stab them in the shin, while they rolled on the ground in pain, Baby Dwalus slit their throats and dragged their corpses further into the alley so the next victim would not notice. Baby Dwalus makes off with 3 bodies using this technique and upon searching their persons gains 50$. Baby Dwalus, needing salt and pepper with which to eat his victims, finds a local mass murderer who calls himself ‘The Bankman’ and gives him cash to buy him some groceries since Baby Dwalus can’t reach the high shelves or the counter. At the end of the day, Baby Dwalus treats himself to a large feast on Mrs Gren’s roof

@Heilari - Dominic Hoyt
Dominic Hoyt contacts local stores, banks, and businesses telling them of Danuk Armored’s brand new armoured cars. While no stores show interest, most banks in the area and a few businesses pre-order the armoured cars making Dominic a swift 400$. Dominic then goes about looking up a suitable car manufacturer in the phone books. While all the cars manufacturers in capitalist countries prove to have ludicrously high prices, Dominic finds a suitable manufacturer in a nearby communist country willing to manufacture cars for him at the low price of 150$, Dominic predicts he can then sell these cars for 200$ to those who have preordered.

@Dwalus - Papa Dwalus
The Mafia Boss instructs Jessica to go get a job at the Crimton Bank of Commerce, while her CV wasn’t very promising (Turns out having “Part-time Mobster” under previous jobs and “Local Mafia Boss” as a reference were not the best things to be on a CV) she managed to secure a job as a late night janitor. She gives 10$ of her paychecks to Papa Dwalus. The Mafia Boss then buys a second house 6 streets away from his current one. Perhaps a safe house? Towards the end of the day, Mayor Dwalus is checking his mail, most are complaints from citizens about crime levels which Mayor Dwalus tosses in the bin but one catches his eye, upon further reading he finds it is a Bomb Threat! Threatening to blow up one of the bridges by the end of tomorrow! If Mayor Dwalus doesn’t deal with this bomb threat it could cost him the mayorship!

@Elven_Hero - Quantum
Quantum begins searching around the slums for a decent sidekick, while a child can be bought cheap from the right people, Quantum doesn’t see anyone he likes the look of or that can keep up with him. He does however make a few contacts in the slums who promise to tell him if they see any crimes committed in exchange for protection giving him 10 influence. (You need 500 influence before you can get a sidekick.). A few people let him take left overs from recent building work viewing his arrival as a sign that things will soon be changing in Crimton for the better.
[-100 influence, +30 influence] Overall influence: 30
@Nar5ial - The Consarcio(Stitch) Syndicate
Areas filled with the homeless are marked out for organ harvesting. The homeless are easily lured into dark alleys with promises of food and shelter making easy pickings for the syndicate. An organ exchange program is set up with a foreign Communist hospital who believe even organs must be shared and compulsory organ donations are forced upon the populace (Crazy foreigners). This leads to plenty of organs being at hand for the surgeons in the Hospital to use. 10 patients are treated today!
[+10$] Overall cash: 110$
@Drackonian - Razor
Razor proposes a treaty with a local crime boss called Papa Dwalus in which he provides protection from superheroes such as the deadly Quantum in exchange for armour and guns which is accepted readily. To make himself known Razor robs stores in the slums with his new guns and armour, He makes 100$ by robbing two stores before coming across a Pharmaceutical (Which among the denizens of Crimton’s Underworld is known to sell narcotics and poisons) and while trying to rob it the female store clerk pulls a shotgun on him, Razor makes a quick escape through the window while the girl called security, luckily his armour protected him from any wounds from the shards of glass.

@5h0rgunn - Tristram Montgomery III/Minds Measure Private Investigative Services
Tristram sets up his offices above a rundown and out-of-business coffee shop before later purchasing the coffee shop as well for 100$. Tristram later called up his cop buddies from when he was in the police force and asked for them to send over any cases that they needed help on and spread the word about his business. As the office was closing up for the night a young woman burst in and made her way up to the office and presented herself before the secretary before being sent in to Tristram. The woman explained that recently her husband who worked as a doctor had been leaving late at night and arriving in the early hours of the morning bedraggled, at first she thought it was just his work but he was still taking day shifts. When she told this to her friend, who happened to be the wife of one of Tristram’s cop buddies, she recommended Tristram for the job. The woman finishes saying she suspects her husband may be having an affair.

@Elderon - Elsiva and Mystra
Leaving Mystra in charge of the shop, Elsiva sets out with a pistol shoved down the back of her trousers in the place of a holster and spreads the word of her new shop’s selection of poisons and narcotics amongst the denizens of the Underworld. When Elsiva returns she finds the two muscular ‘helpers’ outside the shop trying to mend a broken window while the girl on shift at the counter is shaking and wielding the shotgun kept under the desk. Turns out a man with a gun had burst in and tried to rob the store, when the girl pulled the shotgun on him, he had escaped through the window! In a rage at this injustice Elsiva spent 100$ renovating the store and adding iron bars onto the windows.

@electricsnowman - Deneep Ferser
After mailing his post, Deneep Ferser chooses to spend the night mugging the innocent (As innocent as a citizen of Crimton could ever be of course) folk of Crimton by making a T-Rex appear in front of him and threatening to let it eat them if they didn’t hand over their money. Very few could take their eyes off of the giant reptile allowing Deneep to knife them in order to silence the witnesses. Deneep makes 50$ all in all and nabbing some swag clothing which could probably get him into some of the more fancy establishments in Crimton.

@micheal_handy76_mh - The Shade
The Shade lurks around town looking homeless and then delves into the sewers later on and ends up wrestling a crocodile. The Shade wins the fight and gains the Crocodile’s tooth as a trophy. The tooth can for some reason so sharp it cut through the stone of the sewers quite easily and The Shade fashions it into a knife for later use. At precisely 2 o’clock The Shade appears behind his contact at the place they were to meet. The contact offers 1000$ if The Shade can kill the new Chairman of Future Life INC., Zilla ‘Zillionaire’ Zillington. (You can only have one power, so I suggest choosing one of the ones you chose)
