Editing Campaign:Acts of Villainy (section)

== Support ==

You are not alone.  Each character has the full backing and support of Hell.  There are various benefits this provides, each with a scale appropriate to your rating in the Backing background.<br/>

'''Safehouses:''' Over the years, there have been hundreds of places the servants of the Yozi have prepared to hide from the wrath of Creation's defenders.  Outside of fate and hidden from even the gaze of the Unconquered Sun, the Green Sun Princes may use these hideouts to lay low if their actions draw too much attention (as they undoubtedly will).<br/>
'''Backup:''' Each Green Sun Prince is a force unto himself, but sometimes that is not enough.  Cultists, summoned demons and Akuma are all available to call upon when you are in need.  Be it a team of Blood Ape shock troops, a group of Cultist smugglers or political pressure from an Akuma in deep cover in the local government, if your patron approves, are yours to command.<br/>
'''Artifacts:''' The Panoply of Hell is vast, and the choicest devices are for you to take up.  If you have the XP to spend, you can have any Artifact you wish.  It can even be delivered to Creation within the hour, available for pickup from a convenient cultist.  Implanted artifacts still require some work, but this can normally be performed in a safehouse with little trouble.<br/>
'''Information:'''  If you need to know something, there's probably someone who either knows it or can find out, and they're at your beck and call. <br/>
'''People:''' Sometimes an infernal does not have the patience or time to deal with the mundane tasks at hand.  That's why they have People.  Handling cleanup operations, criminal operations, preparing for a mission etc.  If it's beneath you, let it fall to those who are beneath you.<br/>

All of these things can be accessed via a Hellphone, a device that each of you has been given.  It is a creation of The Flatterer of Forgotten Genius, one of your Defiler peers.  It is a small, perfectly smooth obsidian tablet, roughly the size of a modern smart phone.  When held in the hand of a native of Malfeas or a creature of darkness, all one has to do is speak the name of the person they wish to communicate with.  If that individual has a Hellphone, it will then notify them of your desire to speak with them, and if they accept you will be connected.  If you want instead to send a short message, simply saying the recipients name and a short (up to 30 seconds) message, it will convey that message when the recipient accepts it.  Speaking into the device and having it give an audio output is the simplest way to interact, but it can also work telepathically.  It also has the ability to send written messages, which appear in dimly glowing green old-realm runes on (or just under) it's flat surface.  It can translate speech into text.  It can be stored in your shadow.
