Introductions

Contact Introduced By

• Wiggy the Brit

New Contact(s)

• Terrence Dobbs

There's a professional exterminator called Terrence Dobbs who deals with the Arachnoid problem in Grandville. He's looking for some help with his work.

Dobbs is a bit rough around the edges, but he's good at his job.

• Westin Phipps

Westin Phipps is the proprietor of Haven House, a place in Grandville that helps the helpless and downtrodden. Only, that's not really his job. Phipps is an agent of Arachnos, and his job is to find out what's giving hope to the hopeless and oppressed, and then have that source of hope destroyed. He may be the cruelest man I have ever met, but he always has things that need to get done.

As long as you want to keep normal people hopeless and ground down beneath the heel of Arachnos, Phipps is the guy to do it.

• Mage-Killer Zuhkara

I know a woman named Mage-Killer Zuhkara. She's an assassin from Russia who specializes in eliminating spies with magical backgrounds. She's looking for someone to help her with a few hits.

Zuhkara is very blunt and to the point, and she seems to take a personal interest in destroying those of arcane origin.

Information

Tarantula Queen

Regent Korol is one of the few Fortunatas that have chosen to devote themselves fully to Arachnos by becoming powerful Tarantula Queens. Through the process, she gained immense psychic abilities, which she uses to protect Arachnos from infiltration.

Story Arc

The Crey Intrusion

It all started when Regent Korol discovered Crey spies trying to steal data from one of the Grandville Arachnos bases. You were sent in as a relief force to stop the Crey spies from escaping. In the end, the Crey spies still managed to send a transmission to an offshore cargo ship, supposedly containing data files on Arachnos Tarantulas.

Regent Korol sent you to take down the other Crey spies on the ship and recover the data files. During the fight on the ship you discovered the authorization of the data theft was direct from Countess Crey herself! Apparently she wanted to get hold of the Arachnos technology behind manufacturing Tarantulas so Crey could gain a new edge.

Stop Crey intrusion

Briefing

I have caught some more flies in my web. Character! This time it's those nasty Crey Industries people. We try to make nice with them, sharing what technologies we can, but there are some secrets which simply can't be bought. But they are so very greedy and jealous of the secrets we keep. So what do they do? They send in their 'heroes' to try and steal the information for themselves! I can feel them now, crawling about in one of our Arachnos bases. I have tried to transfer the data out of the base, but they are tricky, these Crey! They have destroyed the communications line in and out of the base so they can get the data they require. They must be stopped! Go to the Arachnos base and eliminate these nasty Crey spies!

Go quickly before it is too late! You have 75 minutes before the spies escape!

Mission Acceptance

Do not let these Crey spies get away with my precious data!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Do not delay! These Crey spies will escape soon!

Mission Objective(s)

You hear the sounds of conflict echo through the Arachnos corridors. Find the Crey spies before they escape!

• Stop Crey intrusion - 1:15:00
  • Assist Arachnos troops
  • Rescue Tarantula Queen
  • Stop Crey spy and allies

You rescued the Tarantula Queen!
You stopped the Crey spy!
You stopped the Crey attack!

Upon Exit of Mission

More Arachnos troops show up to clean up the base. They salute you as you exit.

Enemies

Crey

Notable NPCs

• Tarantula Queen (Hostage/Ally, Boss-class)
• Paragon Protector (guarding Tarantula Queen, Boss)
• Paragon Protector (Crey spy, Boss)

Debriefing

Was that Paragon Protector speaking the truth? Were they looking for data on how Arachnos makes my lovely, lovely Tarantulas? And did they actually manage to get a message through our electronic scramblers? I'll need to investigate further!

And they make this intrusion on the pretense of heroic acts! How typically Crey!

You amuse me, Character. Treat yourself to my Enhancements.

Recover data from Crey spies

Briefing

Those sneaky Crey! They managed to get out a data transmission to a nearby cargo ship! If this has information on how to make my lovely Tarantulas, they must be stopped! Stop these Crey spies and recover the transmission data!!

Mission Acceptance

Recover the data and punish the spies responsible for stealing it!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Have you recovered the information on my lovely Tarantulas yet? Do not delay!

Mission Objective(s)

You follow the Arachnos coordinates to the cargo ship. Find the Crey spies and retrieve the data!

• Recover data from Crey spies
  • Find stolen data files
  • Defeat Crey Spy

You defeated the Crey spy!
You found something
You defeated the Crey spy and recovered the data files!

Enemies

Crey

Notable NPCs

• Paragon Protector (Crey spy, Boss)

Note: This Paragon Protector has the powers of The Shining Light. It is unclear if this is a bug or simply randomised Paragon Protector powerset.

Debriefing

You have recovered the data files, my pet? Good. It seems as though Countess Crey has a lot of answering to do. Especially for trying to steal the secrets of my lovely, precious Tarantulas!

Punish Countess Crey

Briefing

So Countess Crey gave the order to steal the Tarantula technology? Then she is a fool, especially with spies who so easily spill their secrets. Arachnos is used to dealing with multiplicitous allies. But they should also realize that when they are caught in our web, they must suffer the consequences. She has transgressed the unwritten laws by attempting to steal from us. Such a transgression cannot go unpunished, my pet!

The Countess Crey does not show herself often these days, but Arachnos always keeps tabs on people such as herself. Go to the Crey laboratories in Paragon City and punish Countess Crey!

Be warned, Character. Countess Crey built her industrial empire with the blood of her enemies. She will not easily be taken down from her place of power!

Mission Acceptance

Countess Crey has overstepped her bounds. Discipline must be maintained!

Unnecessary Solicitation

According to my sources, Countess Crey is awaiting backlash from Arachnos for her mistakes. Don't disappoint her.

Mission Objective(s)

This Crey facility is on full alert! Find Countess Crey and punish her for crossing Arachnos!

• Punish Countess Crey
  • Defeat Countess Crey and minions

You defeated Countess Crey!

Primary Enemies

Crey

Notable NPCs

• Countess Crey (Archvillain)
• Crey Power Tank x 3 (Boss)

Debriefing

Ah, yes. Crey Industries has sent out a formal apology to Arachnos for what they call the 'unfortunate misunderstanding in the Rogue Islands', and will endeavor to 'build upon the relationship with Arachnos in the future'. Typical Crey-speak. I will keep my eye on them.

Aren't you a precocious one, Character! Try some of these Enhancements.

Missions

Patrol the web

Briefing

As you may have noticed, Grandville has an enormous communications array tied into all manner of satellite transmissions worldwide. But it also serves another purpose: boosting the reach of the Fortunatas and Tarantula Queens! With the aid of the web, our senses reach further than ever before! Because of this, we must ensure that the main communications relay centers are functioning properly. Patrol the juncture stations of the communications web to ensure they are working properly.

Mission Acceptance

If anyone gets in your way, you have my authority to dispose of them!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Report back to me once you have patrolled the web.

Mission Objective(s)

• Patrol the web

You have completed your patrol of the web.

Debriefing

Everything is in order? Good. I'd hate to see anything wrong happening with my lovely web.

Assist subverted Spiderlings

Briefing

The Spiderlings which scuttle about Grandville are useful little creations. They maintain the majesty of our glorious city and dispose of anything undesirable. I have subverted a number of them to attend me personally and tap into parts of the web to find hidden secrets. Unfortunately, some Arachnos technicians have noticed the erratic behavior of my subverted counterparts and have started eliminating them. I will give you a tracker to show where my lovely Spiderlings are under attack. I need you to repel the Arachnos extermination squads before my subverted pets are destroyed!

You have 60 minutes to complete this mission.

Mission Acceptance

Some of my Spiderling pets are there under attack. Rescue any there which you can!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Hurry! Rescue my Spiderlings before they are all destroyed!

Mission Objective(s)

Rescue Regent Korol's subverted pets before they are eliminated!

• Assist subverted Spiderlings - 60:00
  • 3 subverted Spiderlings to rescue

You assisted Regent Korol's subverted Spiderlings!

Primary Enemies

Arachnos

Notable NPCs

• Toxic Tarantula x 3 (Boss, all guarding Spiderlings)

Ambush! After each Spiderling is rescued, there will be a wave of Arachnos. "Don't let that Spiderling escape!"

Debriefing

Ah, I sense my little Spiderling pets carrying out my will. Excellent work. Character!

Find source of psychic disturbance

Briefing

I've heard voices, strange voices, reverberating to me from across my psychic network. They speak in alien voices, whispering across voids and dimensions. These voices confuse me, cause me pain. They must be silenced!

I have found a nexus point where these voices are strongest. There is one there who is known as Gr'pth'r... Go to this place and silence these voices!

Mission Acceptance

Go now, my pet! Silence the voices in my mind!

Unnecessary Solicitation

The voices are maddening. Silence them once and for all!

Mission Objective(s)

This old warehouse reeks of filth and even less identifiable smells.

Debriefing

You have silenced the voices. All is well.

This Gr'pth'r intended to make a teleportation relay using my web? MY WEB? Filthy, dirty, Rikti!

Defeat all Longbow agents

Briefing

There seems to be some heroes who have wandered into our little web! I sense them there now, trying to find our secrets. Their efforts are fruitless - I've already had our Arachnos operatives transfer out any useful information, replacing them with false leads and incorrect information. But now we get a chance to play with them! Go to the Arachnos base and punish them for their intrusion!

Mission Acceptance

I could just do a base lockdown and eliminate them now, but this way is MUCH more fun.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Have you cleaned those Longbow agents out of our web? Please do so, my pet.

Mission Objective(s)

Regent Korol remotely unlocks the door to this Arachnos base to allow you entry. Inside are the Longbow flies who have become caught in this spider web. Eliminate them!

• Defeat all Longbow agents
  • Stop Reeves from escaping

You cleaned out the Arachnos base!

Primary Enemies

Longbow
Note: All the Longbow forces within this mission will almost all consist of Longbow Spec-Ops.

Neutral Forces

Arachnos

Notable NPCs

• Commander Reeves (Longbow Longbow Officer)

Debriefing

Ah, very well done, Character! We can't have Longbow running about our clean little nests, can we now?

Rescue Night Widows from Carnival

Briefing

Those wicked, nasty Carnival! I've received reports of Night Widows disappearing in St. Martial, lured away to fancy soirées, only to be spirited away by the Carnival! I've located one of the hidden locations where the Carnival are holding some of my Night Widows. Go there and rescue my Night Widows!

Mission Acceptance

Ultimately, I do not wish my Night Widows becoming slaves to the Carnival. Rescue whoever you can, and destroy the one responsible!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Bring me back my lovely, lovely Night Widows! And punish those nasty Carnival!

Mission Objective(s)

Off in the distance you hear music and laughter. Sounds like the Carnival is having a party - but not the kind you want to be invited to.

• Rescue Night Widows from Carnival
  • 2 Night Widows to rescue
  • Defeat Mistress Mercata

You rescued the Night Widows!

Primary Enemies

Carnival of Shadows

Debriefing

You have freed my Night Widows from the clutches of those Carnival harlots? And you have punished whoever was responsible? Good, good. The Carnival will think twice before crossing Arachnos again!

I must bid you farewell, my pet. This is one spider web you didn't get trapped in!
