Queen of Cups

The Queen of Cups is a small and unassuming coffee shop in a shambling brick building that is across the street from Hope Prep. It looks ordinary with no ostentatious signage or even a chalkboard of specials to mark it. The interior is decorated with memorabilia from all five super ages.

This is a peaceful establishment, and everyone pledges to be on their best behavior - no matter how villainous they may be outside.

The owner of the Queen of Cups is known simply as The Queen. No one knows who she is. By choice, she appears to be an elderly woman. She claims to have no superhuman abilities (but she's rumored to have massive control over reality - which she uses primarily to prevent cups and plates from breaking after they are dropped).

First Appearance: Gauntlet Community Open Gaming: July 18, 2020

Villain Rehabilitation Program
As part of a larger community service initiative, The Queen hires ex-super villains to run the cafe on some days of the week. This allows the villains to start their reintegration into the larger Gauntlet City community.

Regulars
