Contacts

Many stories are woven throughout the game. You explore them by completing the Missions and Story Arcs that you get from Contacts. Missions are designed as a challenge for characters within a certain range of power, such as levels 5-9 or levels 30-34.

Everyone starts the game with a contact who has missions for levels 1-4. Some additional contacts can be gotten just by being the right level and clicking on them (e.g. David Wincott in The Hollows or the Detectives/Brokers in different zones) but most are introduced by contacts you already have. The Nav Window has a button to show you your contacts.

When you complete everything a regular contact has to offer, or your level becomes higher than everything they offer, then they introduce you to a new contact. The more contacts you have the more story arcs and missions you can choose from.

You can also earn new contacts from Detectives/Brokers. Perform a few Radio/Newspaper missions in a zone and the Detective/Broker will offer you a Safeguard/Mayhem mission. Complete that Safebuard/Mayhem mission and you'll be offered another contact. You can repeat this till that Detective/Broker runs out of contacts.

Most contacts only offer missions within one level range. There are a few, like Sunstorm and Shadowstar that offer missions across many level ranges. You can return to such a contact for more missions when you reach a higher level range.

A few NPCs won't show up on your Contact list but can offer missions without introduction. The City Representative in the Atlas Park City Hall, for example, has missions available at level 20 and 30 which earn the character new options for costumes. Tailors provide missions at levels 20, 30, and 40 earn a character a new costume slot.
