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.

One of the signature coffee blends incorporates seaweed farmed in Atlantis.

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). The Queen loves filling out crossword puzzles, both hers and the puzzles of everyone around her. Other rumors about the Queen: she once spoke to a dangerous villain, and then everyone forgot about that villain; she will grant you a boon if you leave her a macaron as tribute.
