Zoe had both cards held in her hands, one had an obsidian plating with a conspicuous [V] on it, while the other was silver in color and had a somewhat more discreet [M] she grabbed a pair of badge holders and pinned both to the whiteboard.
Neither had a name, photos nor anything to say whose they belonged to, they were, however... Plenty showy to be ID's to a [Villain] organization.
"These are what yours will look like if you end up as a [Villian] or [Minion], they will work in tandem with your bracelets in case you need to prove who you are and don't want to get close to a scanner." Said Zoe while fishing for a normal-looking ID from her back pocket.
It showed her full name and had a photo of hers, her badge holder hid her birthday and address, but one could find that information easily enough if one had the right contacts.
"As you can see my id is normal enough right?" Asked the girl while flashing her ID.
[Zoe Acedia] said the ID card.
That was...one weird name.
The girl flashed a grin and injected some [Mana] into the ID surprising Alice, usually powered didn't know how to do that...Since they rarely used [Mana] in a conscious way.
"Now if I funnel the smallest possible part of my [Skill] into the card.." So Zoe wasn't funneling [Mana] but her [Skill]?
That made...sense. No way a powered could manipulate mana right? Right?
"Then this happens," said Zoe while showing her ID card once more, this time, however...It was different, it was a crystal clear mirror of the [Villian] card on the whiteboard, only this one had some purple finishing instead of the usual red-gold the normal one had.
Also, it had Zoe's Villain name and picture on it, [Nyctoxis], and the photo of the black-haired girl with purple hair streaks and shining purple eyes. That was a neat trick.
Alice was thinking about how convenient...And perhaps pointless that would be, why would a [Villain] need to prove they were one? If a Villian needed a card to prove its identity, that [Villain] wasn't doing his job.
"Now we don't actually want you to go around showing these willy-nilly to everyone." Said Zoe while pointing to the card in her hand. "These are only to be used in case you need to prove your identity to another organization."
She added while playing a video on the whiteboard of a masked [Minion] in a discussion with another masked man, provably another [Villian] or
[Minion]. They couldn't hear what the discussion was about.
"This is an example, this [Minion] worked for [Echidna] and the man he is arguing with is a [Minion] from another organization that didn't believe he was a [Minion] of [Echidna]." She said while the [Minion] got exasperated and extended his hand pointing at his [Bracelet].
"And to prove his identity the [Idiot] exposed his [Bracelet] for a scanning," said Zoe while grimacing.
What followed was...Not pretty.
The other [Minion] used that chance to approach the exposed hand and struck both quick and viciously at the [Minion]. He went straight for the neck trying to kill the [Echidna's Minion].
He dodged by dumb luck but was at a disadvantage as he was caught by surprise, the fight devolved into an ugly struggle as one tried to escape while the other was obviously a powered metahuman.
"That other [Minion] was a disguised [Vigilante], someone that fights against our type of organization for a sport...Or vengeance...Or just wants to [Kill] but pretend to be on the side of [Justice]. It matters not." Finished Zoe while turning off the video once more.
