is a russian badass,
knight in shining kevlar,
actually being cagey,
taking over the world one book at a time,
secretly a marxist revolutionary,
agnostic knight of god get,
as angsty as he'll ever be,
former denarians represent,
discretion is the better part of…,
likes russian lit a little too much

This were pretty diverse, but nothing that was alien or supernatural in nature that I saw. The Joker toxin was the only one that's not available on our world.
The card was interesting. The next attack, and there will be one, will tell us a lot. If it's more of the same, only more advanced... say poisons and diseases that people haven't seen before or are severely mutated, then it's probably just one or two people and that sort of thing is there gig. If it's something different, it's probably a group, or at least someone with more than one brain to pick for ideas.
That's what I've got.

The Joker toxin is also man-made, from what I could discern. If that person is not on our world to concoct it, it would make sense that we are unfamiliar with it.
If there is something more advanced than Ebola, I will be concerned. It is extremely volatile, and it was foolish of whomever set it loose. What good is frightening an entire population full of people who cannot die? They lack logic but not, it seems, cohesive action.
Thank you.

I don't know if it was so foolish. People are really slow to re-orientate their thinking about death being really, really bad. Ebola is a seriously bad way to die. Maybe they're working towards an extended version of Ebola. In a place where people can't die suffering like that is something people could be reconditioned to fear.

... Batman, Harry? I see.
Mm. I suppose that is a possibility to be considered. What I do not understand is how they expect to get away with it. This is but one City, inescapable even in death. No one is so ingenious as to escape notice indefinitely, not when there are equally skilled forces working against them.
Ah. Though it is only somewhat relevant - a young man has started a demonic activity unit with the police force, to which I found myself assigned. It might be useful in the future.

Let me have my fantasies, Sanya. Don't be jealous just because all the Russians in comics are bad guys. Well, not Black Widow, but if you want to be her you got serious issues.
Maybe they don't care about getting caught? No offense, but murder has been the biggest crime here and the heaviest sentence was imprisonment for a few weeks.

... I do not read enough comics to know what you are referring to. But if this is another instance of Teletubbies, Harry... Though you can blame the Cold War for the typecasting, if you must.
Ah, that is true. But if they did not care about being caught, would they be so clandestine? Or is it, do you think, a game to those involved?

I think they wanted to see how the people would react to an all out attack. Maybe they enjoy life as upstanding citizens and don't want to risk that. Hell's bells, maybe it's just another game played by the deities.

By all accounts, it does not seem the 'style' of the deities. Though there is a first time for everything.
Harry, how are you?

I'm good, I think. It's hard to tell sometimes.
