CAFE RECEIPT
RECEIPT NUMBER: SFE03
RECEIPT DATE: X 26 19XX
MANAGER TITLE: TRUSTED ASSOCIATE
RECEIPT NOTES:
Alright, nouvel ami, I have paid a few visits to some notable figures in the supernatural world who might be willing to join us once the time is right. Of course, due to my status as a pariah, I couldn’t really ask anyone with strong ties to the Agency. Especially anyone with ties to the Zulus. Though, I figured we wouldn’t want them on our side anyway, yes? Having potential spies or traitors among us won’t do us any good.
First among my picks is Sahir Bali, an old contact I had at the Agency. But, make no mistake, Sahir has no formal ties to the Astorians. In fact, he makes it a point to have no strong ties to anyone or any organization for fear of burning bridges and closing off what he calls “connections.” Next would be Marcus Douglas, he’s a bit of an outsider, like us, but he is a devout warlock of la Dame Lucifer. I am certain he would jump at the chance to aid in an organization created by his very own patron. Another possibility would be Madeline Saturn, she was a test subject of the Agency, so she already harbors a good deal of contempt for them, and she has quite impressive psychic powers as well. Lastly, I got in touch with Daniel Hamilton, the Caretaker of West Virginia. Pulling him away from his work in West Virginia might prove difficult, but he holds no other allegiances that would prevent him from joining our Cafe.
Of course, these are just some early suggestions. I assume that when you are ready to pick out some employees, you will have your own suggestions. Not to mention your tendency to assume any decision to be made as already decided, eh? But, if you would like me to arrange a meeting with Bali, Douglas, Saturn, or Hamilton, just say the word, and I will see it done.
