Session 3 XP
Monsters defeated: 7 rat men = 700 xp 1 Mephisian = 800 XP 3 cultists = 300 xp 1 master criminal = 300 xp
Divided by 5, because Zatara wasn’t there, so 420 each
Since we sped through the final battle -- and I may have fudged some results -- I am awarding half xp for the following: 24 rat men = 1,200 xp 12 cultists = 600 xp 3 Mephisians = 1,200 xp
Divided by 5, because Hawkgirl went unconscious and gets no xp from it. So 600 each
Then +500 each for the monetary reward.

Time to get ready for bed, so Captain Desmo's arrival in the U.S. will have to wait a bit longer.
In the meanwhile, start thinking -- both of you -- about what you want your next/first scenario to be.
Urban? Wilderness? Hideout? Vote here!

The first scenarios in this campaign were generated entirely with random rolls; I want to put a bit more prep into it from now on, now that I have two players! So where they'll meet will be determined, most likely, by where we set the next scenario...
I'll be working up a campaign background post, hopefully tonight, with some geography information.

Campaign Background
History
As far as the general public knows, world history has proceeded up through April 1940 the same as it did in the real world. Some people know that magic is real, some people know aliens are real, and a select few know both. There are subterranean races that evolved differently from mankind, but are not supernatural in nature.
The first publicly known costumed superhero was the Flash, first appearing in public on November 10, 1939 (the date some call The Day the World Changed). Hawkman soon followed.
Geography
All world geography is basically the same with one notable exception -- New York City doesn't exist. Instead, there is Metropolis and Appleton City.
Metropolis is the smaller, but more upscale, of the two cities. Metropolis consists of the boroughs of Staten Island, Brooklyn, Newark (what is New Jersey in our world, east of Newark Bay), and South Manhattan. Its population is 6.6 million.
Appleton City is the larger of the two cities. Appleton consists of the boroughs of Queens, Bronx, North Manhattan, and Hempstead (what is the NW portion of Nassau County in our world). Its population is 6.9 million.

Oh! Also share here what villains you'd like to have turn up in the campaign at some point!

villains who we have apprehended escaping and forming their own injustice society?, Per degaton or Baron Blitzkrieg. Black Dragon society, dragon King? Superman villains might be a little tough

sounds good and wishful thinking
(LOL Hour-man now a Legend of Tomorrow. but Hourman does not have a time ship nor is his goal to become the future Gideon as well...)

Captain Desmo's solo play has stretched a little longer than intended because I wanted to give Hour-Man a solo downtime scene. I'm planning to wrap them both up Thursday night and start our first joint scenario on Friday!

Session 4 turns are up! Reply to your own hero's posts only until you two meet up. Hopefully we'll get you to converge soon.
To keep one person from getting ahead of the other, I'll be slowing progress down to allow each person three days to respond to my last post. If I don't have full responses in that time, I'll move events ahead with my best judgement.
I'd like at least 10 minutes' worth of intentions at a time. If we get to combat, I will take one minutes' worth of intentions for turn 1, then two minutes worth of intentions for "turn 2", three minutes of intentions for "turn 3" - so we can resolve long fights faster.

Tim might have not posted yet because I confused him! I see I conflated Sister Maria with Jack's wife Marie and put Jack and Maria together (the scandal!). I have gone back and changed the references to Maria to Marie now.

All ok. I made a post in Season 4, and look forward to meeting Hour Man and the other heroes. It was a little longer just to help introduce the extras cast members around me to others. I try to keep my posts a little more succinct from now on... I don't have any villain suggestions, but suggest that Desmo's assistant's (Hobbs) boss I invented, might be a whole lot more than he seems - as an ally and in a good way....
