>>25680468
Alright, what are the points of this contract, and how is Mephisto going to try to stiff us?

>>25680468
Read it really carefully

Like, really carefully

>>25680468
>eading a contract for it's return
The deal was/should be: we have beaten Mephisto so he will undo the soul contract he did with the mother so her soul can freely go to heaven/be outside of his power.

>>25680487
>>25680526
The contract is discussing the unconditional* surrender of Cynthia Von Doom's soul into Victor Von Doom's possession

If I may, sir, I would advise against signing it and writing your own. His is likely to trick you in some way

*Terms and contitions apply

>>25680604
>I would advise against signing it and writing your own
A good suggestion.

Any and all contracts signed between Cynthia Von Doom (living or diembodied) and Mephisto shall be rendered null and void. Custody of her souls shall be unconditionally surrendered to Victor Von Doom.

>>25680604
Do our own contract

leave him pinned to the floor in agony, and take our time over it

>>25680658
>>25680670
You spend a while writing your own contract, making sure Mephisto is still pinned down every once in a while.
After a while, you finish, and you have a perfect, loophole free contract. You copy it in triplicate, and ask him to sign
Reluctantly, he fills his name in, and requests to be freed

Morgana appears to be making the Demons fight each other for her amusement

"It wasn't a pleasure to do business with you" Let's get back to Latveria

>>25680746
A contract is a contract. We shall release him.
AFTER a portal back to Earth has been opened and we are on our way.
"Strange, are you prepared to make a portal back to Earth?"

>>25680468
>Save Strange
how is strange in danger?

>>25680798
...How do we get back?

Teleportation magic circle?

>>25680817
"Oh yes, of course. I'll get on that."
He starts preparing the circle.

After a few minutes of watching demon fights, Strange finishes. You pull your spear out, and head back through. The hatred Mephisto is almost palpable.
You arrive back in the caverns beneath Castle Doom with your Remaining forces.
Refreshments have been placed on a table for your convenience.
"Well, that was... Eventful. Thanks for saving me, even if it was sort of your fault I was on fire in the first place" Says Strange

>>25680818
I apologise, sir. I misspoke Ctrl-C malfunction, sorry

>>25680989
"DOOM holds your debt fulfilled. How best should my Mother's soul be freed? It cannot be as simple as uncorking the bottle, can it?"

>>25680989
"Doom is grateful for assisting in freeing my mother's soul"
So how do we send her soul to heaven?

>>25681038
I thought we wanted to revive her?

>>25681095
If that's the case, we probably need to create a new body for her.

>>25681095
(copy/paste from previous thread)
>(Victor) should be 45~55 years old, I think his mother died at age 30 to 40.
If we give her a younger body that would be awkward and if we give her older body that would be bit weird. No matter what/how we do it it will end up in spaghetti

Rolled 20

>>25680989
Time to Party!

>>25681147
>that roll
Yep, its time to make a new Latverian holiday

>>25681038
"I'm.. Not really sure, to be honest. I'd wait until you're sure before opening it."

"Opening it would free her, Victor. I think I shall retire for the night." Morgana states, as she begins to walk off

Roll above a 14 on a d20, Please

Rolled 14

>>25681178
Wait, is something wrong with Morgana?

>>25681204
Does that count as a pass?

>>25681146

We're about 3 years younger than reed, since we started university at 16, when Reed was 19. Reed was in the middle of university when susan was 14, and in a recent comic susan was 29, so that means we're about 31

>>25681204
You notice, as she is walking off, that she doesn't normally leave burning claw marks in the floor. Her skirts also appear to be moving in an odd fashion

>>25681147
I can arrange a Doomsday if you wish, as celebration for your miraculous achievement

>>25681317
Check for tails

and throw salt at her or something, I don't know

>>25681317
>Morgan is possessed
Is Sorcerer Supreme still around or are we going to beat this demon on our own(+50 magibots)?

>>25681317
"Magi-bots! Assemble a containment circle! Strange, scan Morgana!
"Mephisto, if this is another of your tricks, DOOM will see you writhe in agony for all eternity."

>>25681365
>>25681366
>>25681364
You order the Doombots to surround her.
A scan reveals her to be normal, though with a unaccountable thermal signature in her lower half.
She rolls her eyes, and gives the thing a kick. A small, vicious looking demon spills out

"I wanted to keep him."

>>25681471
"Now, now, Morgana. You know how much mischief even the weakest of demons can get into.
"Though it may seem trite and a boor, DOOM had instituted Customs laws for a reason, and extra-planar journeys are no exception.
"You may keep it, but it must be bound."

>>25681517
second

>>25681517
Better than what I was writing

>>25681517
I was going to write something but I like this is much better

>>25681517
thrided

>>25681517
"It is. Mostly. I suppose it might put the children in danger. I'll do it now, then."
She starts murmuring some incantation and the Magi-bots stand down

"I think I'll go home too, Doom. It's been an interesting trip, to say the least. Good luck." Strange starts to head off

>>25681471
"A pet? Really, Morgana? *Sigh*. I suppose, but it will be your responsibility to feed and care for it, and keep it out of trouble.

>>25681300
31? Susan's probably a bit older than that.

How's the old hairline holding up? I know a few gypsies and they say that's the real Gypsy curse

>>25681588
"Farewell, Strange. See you at our next...'book club' meeting."

And now we should look into creating a body for our mother. Though the question of what age it should appear as is an awkward one.

>>25681608
It all probably got burnt off by the red hot helmet

Plus we never really take it off so it would probably have all fallen off or something

>>25681588
"Strange, hold a moment. Even though this was the fulfillment of a debt for you, know that you have Doom's gratitude. What you helped Doom do today has never been done before, and means more to me than you could possibly know."

That's the closest Doom ever gets to saying 'thank you'.

>>25681588
> Strange starts to head off
I can't remember exactly but didn't we needed to do a Illuminati meeting ASAP after we found out Skrulls managed to be undetectable against dna tests?

>>25681652
I thought Richards was studying SkrRichards to figure that out.

>>25681652
Ah, reed will probably tell them

>>25681648
>>25681609
"You're... Welcome. It's the least I could do for almost following the orders of a genocidal alien clone."
He heads off to the courtyard to teleport home

Welcome back, sir. You have your modular armour beginning public sale tomorrow.
From the advertising campaign, we discovered that a stripped down version, with basic flight and protection for a lower price would go over very well.

>>25681759
>modular armour sales
Concentrate production on the basic model, as it appears it will comprise a majority of the sales.

Also, see if DNA of our mother can be acquired, and a clone body to be used as her new vessel created.

>>25681759
>stripped down version
Agreed.
Did Spiderman and other heroes receive their armours?
Also is the space station finish?

>>25681805
Yes, sir. This basic model would cost around $4000 to produce. What price would you like to set?

>>25681834
I believe they did recieve their armours, and their invites to the opening, tomorrow, but I have only had replies from Luke Cage and Spiderman.

The space stations are still being constructed, sir. You've only been gone a few hours

>>25681917
Mephisto looked pretty pissed.
We should train some troops to fight demons, just in case.
Clad them in green and give them as many enhancements as possible.

>>25681917
>basic armour price
See if a price point of $5000 would adversely affect sales.

Make sure that magi-bots are on standby tomorrow, in case Mephisto tries something.
Also begin replacing our Magi-bot losses, and bring them back up to pre-Hell levels.

>>25681932
Training standar troops would take months, better leave the magic battles to magibots

Let us debase the currency or something to make the money worth a bit less.
Shit is worth too much.

>>25682005
Can we trade loads of it for Ameribucks, then debase it? Or is insider trading illegal or something?

>>25681961
If it can fly, market it as the new car that doesn't need fuel, and stops your kids from being bullied!

>>25681990
Consider a module for the armors that exploits the magi-tech systems, allowing the wearers to cast certain, pre-selected spells (price increase per spell, some spells restricted to military and government sales only).

>>25682005
do you think that one Victor to $4.50 should be fine, if we go any further we may mess up our economy

>>25682048
>DLC

Guess I might buy more EA products if Doom was at the helm

>>25682054
My opinion is that we should stay less than 5 than we are ok. other than that i dont want to fall under 4 right now for stability.

>>25682092
The casting moduals would each probably add 1 or more runes per spell to the gauntlet.

>>25681961
That appears to be the pricing area people were looking for. Amongst the younger population, they said that they would likely buy one instead of a car, assuming it isn't a trap

>>25682048
I can have the team look to design something like this, sir. To avoid controversy, would using only simple spells such as cleaning spells or light levitation be acceptable?

>>25682030
It might be considered shady, but I doubt anyone would really do anything to stop you

>>25682159
>$5000 price point
Very well, then that shall be the price upon the base model going on sale.

>cleaning and light spells
Also acceptable.

>inflating the Victor
Make some additional purchases of Oscorp stock first.

>>25682159
>buy one instead of a car
Do we sell it in similar way to how cars are? AND there should be also some background checking, we don't wont our product be assimilate with criminals.
>acceptable
Actually we should design it in some forms of rings, in similar way to Mandarin's rings

>>25682159
Better option would be to short a Rusian petrochemical stock.

>>25682159
Could we get a basic idea of how good the suits are. Say what the basic model can do and what we are giving spiderman can do?

>>25682159
25% profit margin seems adequate.

Optional additional spells should include minor telekinesis, cleaning, light, levitation, and minor illusions of color changing. For combat models, sold to heroes and law enforcement, we should include shielding spells, stunning and binding spells, that sort of thing.

Purchase Apple, Oscorp, Hammer Industries, and Damage Control stock. Also Disney. They must be drooling at the thought of Doomtech animatronics and holographic technology for their theme parks. They have a greater wealth-generation engine than most western-european countries. We can turn that to our advantage.

>>25682274
The absolute basic suit would give slow flight capablities, up to 100mph, and would protect someone from injuries one may sustain in real life, such as being hit by a car, or stopping any falling based injuries

The old basic model, which will be rebranded as premium, Is more comfortable, will come with several free resprays in case you wish to change colour, and several stun weapons. It also gives enhanced strength, speed and stamina, and has automatic recharging. It also has wi-fi access.

Other modules can be purchased, with several being specialised for the workplace, such as the additional limbs module (Octavius' suggestion) Or the computer interface module

Spiderman's has several more useful modules, such as large area stuns, and almost complete immunity to common attacks

>>25682392
Alright, we should probably go to bed and do the opening thing in the morning. Doom needs that cash money

>>25682472
second

>>25682392
Don't forget varying degrees and qualities of forcefield. Ranging from 'will prevent sunburn on a hot day' to 'will prevent sunburn from nuclear blast'.

>>25682472
What are we doing for that? I don't actually know what the plan is

We cutting the ribbon on a new shop or something?

Create an astral body for our mother. It's tije to talk to her.

>>25682522
I thought we where going to do some kind of presentation, like E3 except with ours cool armours

>>25682559
Huh, we probably could do that.

>>25682472
You head back to your bedroom, tired after a hard day of fighting. You carefully place your mother on the desk, and get into bed.
You fall asleep almost immediately, and have your regular 8 hours of dreamless sleep. Perhaps with mother around, you might not even need the armour anymore

It's early morning, the next day. Valeria and Laura are in the kitchen, attempting to cook. The convention center is booked, and almost all tickets are sold out
I took the liberty of adding a coupon to all the tickets, getting someone the price of the ticket off their order, if they purchase a suit there. Is that acceptable?

>>25682681
We need to know if Cynthia wants to be alive again >>25682559
>if they purchase a suit there. Is that acceptable?
Seem aright, make sure there are few teams of Silent stalkers close by in case if someone decide to attract.

>>25682681
>getting someone the price of the ticket off their order, if they purchase a suit there
This is acceptable.
As this is a presentation, we shall wear the engraved armour today.

The Magi-bots are on standby in case Mephisto attempts to extract revenge, yes?

>>25682757

Almost certainly going to be an attack at the convention. Big event announced a while ago that Doom is certain to attend? Someone gonna have a go at us.

>>25682785
What's with the name, Dood?

>>25682785
Of course; the only question is who is dumb enough to try it.
We have magi-bots for Mephisto, and Doombots, Doomknights, Time-bots, and Silent Stalkers for everyone else.

In fact, who do we have as the test pilots for the modular armours we are presenting today? Perhaps we should have some police officers from the Mars colonies in the modular armour both to show it off and to demonstrate their capabilities by taking down anyone trying to disrupt the presentation.

>>25682747
I'll get you all the components you will need, sir

>>25682785
Of course, sir. I've placed additional security in the castle, and lots in the convention center

>>25682813
Several of the factory workers will be test piloting, sir. I've added the voice changing module so that their disgusting british accents don't put people off a purchase

>>25682799

Just a leftover from the other day, didn't remove it.

>>25682879
Always with the self depreciation...

>>25682879
AS long as its not a cockney "ello guvna" accent, Doom could not care less.

>>25682921
We put the factory in newcastle for some reason

It's worse

>>25682940
h..how much worse?

>>25682951
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGzULlEbG_c

alternatively
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6k2YEc6dozA

I'm a brit too, but Newcastle could all be on fire and I wouldn't even care

>>25682951
All of the workers speak like Monty Python characters

>>25682951
Much worse

Anyway, is there anything we need to improve on?

You prepare the ritual, making sure to make no errors that could possibly damage her.
The book states that one safety measure, such as a ring of runed bones, would be sufficient, but you add all of them, just to make sure
After almost an hour of chanting, the circle glows, and a flash of green light fills the room.

Before you stands a ghostly image mother

"Wh..Where am I?"

>>25683104
"Mother, it is I, Victor. You are in my castle; I have saved you from Mephisto's clutches."

>>25683104
In the home of Victor Von Doom.
Welcome back to your family, mother.

>>25683104
Just as a question, are we all face scarred, still?

>>25683104
"Your soul is projected, free from Mephisto's torment. You stand in the castle of the Ruler of Latveria, and you are speaking to the Ruler of Latveria. I am Victor Von Doom. Welcome back, mother."

>>25683104
Mother, it is I, Victor. I have freed you from Mephisto. Your torment is over

>>25683154
Yes, from what I understand in Books of Doom the scars where made by Mephisto and only by a cosmic power Doom is able to remove them

>>25683125
>>25683127
>>25683155
>>25683180

"Victor? My son? When..When I last saw you, you were still but a child.... You say I am free? What of the souls Mephisto took because of me?"

>>25683225
Uh...
We're saving that for the return trip.

>>25683225
"Uhh, Yeah. All fine. Totally fine"

>>25683225
Mother, I am pressed for time to keep the souls of the living, remaining in their bodies.
This trip only had you return due to these limitations.
I assure you they will be freed in time if you so wish it.

>>25683244
>>25683257
She's got mom sense, she'll know we're lying

plus you said it all suspicious

>>25683225
"I was only able to bring you back on this trip, Mother. There is a war that is about to break upon us, upon our world, and I am preparing against it.
"If you wish it, then I shall endeavor to free these other souls, once the threat to the world has passed."

>>25683225
>You say I am free? What of the souls Mephisto took because of me?
"He only allowed me fight for your mother as he find an amusement in my pain and failures over these years, for anybody else soul he demanded a exchange for a new ones and this is a price Doom can not paid " <this was actually in comics

>>25683314
I doubt the grammar was that atrocious.

>>25683225
"i'm sorry, mother. I have grown strong and wise, but even I have limits. Yours was the only soul I could manage to save. Perhaps, in time, I may griw strong enough to challenge Mephisto again and overthrow him fully. But for now I am overjoyed just to have you back. Much has changed in the last forty-five years. I have forged Latveria into the land its people deserve, a place of peace and happiness."

>>25683259
"Very well, I hope that they will not have to suffer long. You rule Latveria now? What happened to the Baron, to king Vladimir?"

>>25683307
"A war? Is that why you wear such armour?

>>25683330
I dunno, comics aren't great at writing

>>25683330
Sorry, English isn't my first language

>>25683314
Clean the spelling and grammar up and I'd second this.

>"A war? Is that why you wear such armour?
Due to the faults of another, I wear this mask to hide the atrocity he had created, to keep him from further destroying my body, I wear this suit of armor to protect myself.

>Very well, I hope that they will not have to suffer long.
I will certainly be able to save them once I am recognized as a true defender or earth, and will be able to enlist the help of others that formerly considered me a villain.

>>25683340
The Baron is dead. Laveria is a prosperous nation, a technological marvel. Our economy rivals America. We have very low unemployment, poverty is non-existent and the people are happy.
The armour... Many things have happened since your death. This was not the first time I wished to save you from Mephisto. The encounters left... scars. The people cannot see their ruler as weak, so I wear the armour to protect them.

>>25683382
Isn't that Amon and not Doom?

>>25683340
Mother, do you wish to walk the world once more in a new body, or wish to pass on to eternal rest? I would prefer the former, but I will respect your wishes.

>>25683402
The picture is amon.
The backstory for Victor or at least the one I read had him blame Richards for his face.

>>25683340
"Dead, I'm afraid. And I wear the armor for many reasons. Assassins have struck me in the past. The people have grown accustomed to the armor, as a sign of strength. It comforts them. I have mastered both magic and science and created many automatons that look identical to my armored form, these too comfort my people, and strike my foes. The world itself has hanged, bringing forth many exceptional people. Many fight senselessly and some have turned their intentions against me and my people, the armor is armed and capable of defending Latveria at any time."

>>25683391
>>25683439
"You did all this? I knew you could do great things, My son. I am sure that the people would love you regardless of your appearance.
But I don't understand. Why would people want you dead, if you have done so much?
Where is your father? I can't have much time, here. Surely he does not want to miss me?"

>>25683410
"I...Could you truly do such a thing?"

>>25683482
>I...Could you truly do such a thing?
"Science has brought forth many wonderous things, Mother, wonders that even magic struggle to achieve. If you wish it, then it shall be done. The resources for such a thing are not needed for the war, so there is no fear of that."

>>25683534
Oh good, we wouldn't want it to seem too expensive, would we

>>25683482
You may stay as long as you wish. Outside of Mephisto's realm, little is beyond my power. And all great minds face great opposition. Some seek to conquer our lands. Some see my kingship as a crime and wish to impose their values on our people at the point of a sword. Some crave the tools and powers I have amassed. Others still seek violence only forthe sake of violence. The world is full of monsters, many bearing human faces. And the fact that I stand against them is reason enough for them to seek my death. The greater a man's accomplishments, the greater the opposition to the man's future endeavors. And I have done things that would take weeks to explain. Our people live and work on the planet Mars, as we speak. I have brokered peace with Atlantis. Mad men and invaders from the stars have sought to burn the entire world to cinders and I stand against them. I have cured diseases and fought monsters. I have waged war in the name of peace. And I yet have much to do. I hope that you will choose to stay, so that you may see the things I have done to make you proud. And I want you to meet my god-daughter, the child of my greatest foe. She attends a university here in Doomstadt.

>>25683482
>father
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he froze to death while protecting young Victor from Barons man?

>>25683622
Yeah, but she was dead at the time, so she probably wouldn't know

>>25683534
"I.. I see. I think, then, if possible, I would like to return. I wish to see this world you have built. It is such a shame I was not there to raise you... Though perhaps it was unnecessary. I am proud of you, My son. I knew you would do great things. Though I did expect you to have your own children by now."

Again, that'll have to be it. If anyone has any ideas for the convention, please post them. Otherwise, I'll be back sunday, if that's alright with everyone. Goodnight!

>>25683745
Cool, thanks OP. You're a cool guy

>>25683745
>Though I did expect you to have your own children by now
Oh great, now we're going to get nagged by our mom about marrying Morgana, Valeria (our ex-girlfriend), or someone else, and giving her grandkids.
What's she going to say about Laura staying here in the castle?

I feel like we've inadvertently exposed DOOM as the superhero community's basement-dwelling girlfriend-less NEET.

>>25683790
Technically we have a job, I guess

>>25683745
We need to by happy as fuck during our next public encounter.
Sing "Things that bother you never bother me I feel happy and fine, HAHA" at the next book club meeting.
We saved our mother, god damnit. We've been trying for so many years, we should be ecstatic.

>>25683800
True, we do have a job, and we can make Morgana our girlfriend whenever we want.
The part about getting kids, though, I think mom wants grandkids made the old-fashioned way instead of the new "cloning tubes" method.

>>25683852
No, we can't. Space time continuum shit man.

>>25683852
I did just realize saying the whole thing about our goddaughter could have gone a lot worse

>>25683745
"I had an adopted son, but he..... Did not work out. I have considered romance, but heavy hangs the head that bears the metaphorical crown. Once this coming war is concluded I may turn my efforts towards finding a woman who can appreciate me for who I am, and ignore the power, wealth, and influence that hangs about me like a second suit of armor."

Thanks for the thread, lucia.

>>25683790
>the superhero community's basement-dwelling girlfriend-less NEET.

Living /a/ a dream huh?

>>25683909
Yep
We have a magical girl in our house, as well

>>25683905
So basically, bitches ain't shit?

So, uh, how do we explain laura to mom?

>>25683958
Don't forget robo-waifu and (somehow) tsunade sorcorerss from past

>>25682159
A basic healing spell and active counter spell should also be in the general populous package.

>>25684006
Latveria is her refuge form being used as a weapon by American government.
>>25683790
>Morgana
I think both of them would most likely become close as both of them have a brilliant wizardry skills and both of them have no clue about the modern science.

>>25683881
Well, she will have to return eventually, but that doesn't mean she can't squeeze out some Doom babies before then. Also, I'm sure we can find some sort of cosmic loop-hole to let her stay.

I can only imagine mom as the Jewish overbearing mother with a nagging voice.
Gonna be awkward to explain things though.
>Laura
"Uh... I can explain"
>Robot woman
"Uh, I can explain"
>On the most wanted list
"Uh, I can explain"
>Not continuing the royal line
All of these things. Going to suck to talk to mom about it all.

>>25684009
Robo-waifu should be easy if she's seen star wars
Morgana is fairly simple. She's from the king Arthur legend so she might have heard of her

Now our anime figurines collection...

>>25682983

Holy shit. I didn't even realize she was speaking English until she forced herself on that poor guy. She sounded like a pissed off German. What the fuck are these people?

Also laughed at the end of that show.

>in which Barry Gary and Terry, have an argument!

I think it would be better to first sell a licence for a stuff that their technology struggle with, for example natural human voice or AI for somehow intelligent conversation (Their technology isn't good enough to break the uncanny valley yet). In this way we make a shit tone of money and we wouldn't needed to micromanage any of their projects.

I think I should mention that in at least one continuity we already have a daughter, Carloline Le Fey.
