Information

Informant

Dean MacArthur is a man who doesn't exactly look like he belongs in the Rogue Isles.

Speaking with him for more than a few minutes quickly reveals why he is here - to hobnob with 'supervillains' and feel important by giving them prime information that he retains.

Despite how irritating Dean may be, he has a talent for setting things up for villains to knock them down, and he has no moral problems with whatever people do with his information.

What's up babe? Look, me, I'm not a guy who splits hairs, but I gotta in this situation. What I wanna do is way too small time for you, I'm even kinda nervous just thinking about asking you to do this stuff. You got bigger fish to fry!

Initial Contact

Female

Hey there beautiful, my name's Dean MacArthur, but you can call me D-Mac, babe. Glad you decided to stop on by my little bit of home here.

You're probably wondering right now, who is this amazing man standing before me?

Well, I'll tell you! I'm a guy who can get you information on what YOU want.

I'm not selfish at all, see? You want something, we figure out how to get that. Or I give you a heads up on what might cause you some problems, you know?

I don't know who would give a pretty flower like YOU problems though.

So, what do you say?

• What can you do for me?

What can I do for you? What can I, the Daring D'ster do for a lovely rose like you?

The answer is a lot. See, information, it just falls into my lap, like petals falling in a summer's garden.

Now me, I think that information could be used against folks. You name 'em, Cage, Longbow, Wyvern, Legacy Chain, PPD, the works.

Buncha bum,s you know? So I find this info, give it to you, and you do what you do with it!

• You're not looking to them for protection? From people like me?

Missing Initial Contact Dialogue

• Sounds a little too convenient, Dean.

My life is all about being convenient! Like a fresh spring appearing in an arid desert...

Tell you the truth, okay? This is me, opening up to you, and I barely know you.

Those 'heroes' in Paragon, they got it all wrong. Someone's gotta shove 'em off their high horse. Enforcin' laws then lookin' the other way when them same laws destroy a person's life.

Now I know it ain't gonna be me. But I figure, helping someone like you will at least make a dent, yeah?

• So, you're some sort of freedom fighter?

Freedom Fighter? Sounds romantic...is that what you're interested in? I'm fine with that title, or whatever else you wanna call me, eh?

In the end, I know it's tough trusting folks here, yeah? But I tell you now, you work with me, I'll help you out with whatever needs doing.

Take your time, think it over, then you know what? D-Ster here, I'll be waiting.

• We'll see what happens Dean

• Why should I trust you?

What, you don't trust the dashing, daring, dynamic D-Mac? Check out this flex, pow! How can you not trust that?

But you're right, how can you trust me? Maybe I can say, 'You can trust me', but I know you're smarter than that.

You're talking to me, right? Which means you're smarter already. But still just as beautiful.

• You still haven't answered my question.

A smart one eh!

Well look, me, I'm not super-powered at all. Maybe I'm good with a gun, but that's it. So, you can trust me because you can trust that I don't waty you beating my face in if I tried anything funny. Not that I wouldn't mind you getting your hands on me.

Maybe some other folks here talk tough, but I know what I can do, and it for sure isn't close to what you can do.

• I'll take your word, for now. What do you have for me?

Let's see...a few beautiful roses...some champagne...tickets for two to a play in St. Martial.

But to get specific, I've got some tidbits on a pesky hero hanging around here. But tell you what, give me a second to get everything in order, yeah?

Just two seconds. And then you get your stuff in order.

When both of our...stuffs...are in order, we'll make things happen.

• We'll see, Dean.

• Let's say I trust you - what then?

Briefing

Hey babe, you wanted info? I GOT you some info. So check this juicy stuff out.

There's this hero, goes by the name of Ajax. Guy was the last surviving member of the Omega Team. Crazy stuff right? Omega Team, they're the guys that went on that suicide mission to stop the Rikti in the first Rikti War.

So this guy, Ajax, yeah? Totally starts getting all depressed that he's the last one left on the team, the whole, 'Boo hoo, I watched all my friends die, it's all my fault.' Now I'm a sensitive guy, if you're into that, but this guy was a wimp on an epic scale.

Years later, that whole time capsule left by the Omega Team is opened, and BAM! Juicy info flows out of it, like nectar out of a nectar-flowing machine!

Turns out Ajax was just a thug who killed the REAL Ajax and somehow got his powers of invulnerability! Man, if that's not juicy, I don't know what is. Can you believe all that?

• Are you going to get to the point, Dean? needs confirmation

Yeah! Totally, I'm getting there! I like to take things slowly babe, you know?

So this news spills out that Ajax is a good for nothing thug, yeah? PPD puts out a warrant for his arrest in Paragon, but Ajax, he's smart, he hops over to chill in the Isles. But here's the problem. Now he's all about getting in people's business here, trying to lay down his law all up in this place.

Word on the street is that Ajax is after folks like you supers, you dig?

Me though, I think his invulnerability can't still be all that. Gotta be all rusted and stuff by now, you dig?

I know for a fact, for a FACT, that he loves swooping in to stop robberies. {orange|And I also happen to be having the info that a local jewelry store is pretty light on security right now.}}

So I think you see what's gotta be done, yeah?

If this Ajax guy ain't taken care of, you can be sure he's gonna be piling down on your business at the exact wrong time.

Mission Objective(s)

The jewelry store is quiet as you step inside. The security cameras in the corners turn slowly, still unaware of your presence.

• Rob the jewelry store to lure out Ajax!
  • Defeat Ajax!
  • Find Mission Exit

Ajax turned out to be completely invulnerable - still. But what's more concerning was that you saw another version of yourself in that jewelry store!

	Your Own Self
	While you were robbing the jewelry store, you came across an odd sight - you! But this you was there to defend the store instead of rob it. Unlike yourself, however, it didn't seem too keen on starting a fight.

	The Invulnerable Ajax
	Despite the rumors that Dean heard, Ajax was in fact quite impervious to harm. If he's going to persist in being a problem towards you in the Isles, you'll have to figure out some sort of way around this.

Hey beautiful, how'd it go with taking down that Ajax guy? Is he out for the count?

• He was completely invulnerable Dean - and I encountered a clone of myself.

Whoah, totally invulnerable? STILL?

Ah...man, I thought that magic wore off by now! Geez, I feel awful about that.

Let me make it up to you huh? How about a nice romantic dinner for two later?

But we've got a problem to handle huh? Let's see...I mean, there's gotta be something we can do about a guy who's totally invulnerable...maybe tie him down?

• Ajax isn't an issue at the moment. My CLONE is.

...oh! Right!

Yeah. Oh man, totally, that's a problem. For sure! Two of you walking around, going against each other, ...hold on. Need to imagine two of you first. ...okay. What? Okay, okay.

Yeah, I can see how this can be a problem.

• That's why you're going to get me some information about this.

Oh, yeah. Yeah! For sure. It's you and D-Mac on this, all the way!

So okay, this clone of yours, what did she look like?

• .....

H-haha, just kidding! Little...you know, just a little humor there.

Let me do some digging, see what I can find out, yeah?

• Alright Dean.

Hrm...so...yeah. I'm still not sure what we're gonna do about this. I missing text due to screenshot being obscured by a dropdown. Sorry ...other version of you running around?

That's not one of your secret powers, is it? Playing a trick here on old Dean?

...yeah, I guess not.

Okay...so I'm gonna wrap my mind around this. I'm gonna get you what you need, Dean-style! That's what I do, you know?

Dean takes out his cellphone and sends a flurry of text messages out.

I'm a texting king Character! You like a man who can text 100 words a minute?

So I dunno what could be causing this - I heard the Circle of Thorns did some of that weird stuff over in Paragon. But I mean, why'd they do that with -

Dean's cellphone rings to the tune of a pop song popular with teenage girls.

Rock!

Okay Character, guess who you're high-fiving! THIS guy, right here! I got you what you need!

• Why am I high-fiving you?

Okay so check it out. One of my contacts, he said that he saw you leaping into some sewers here in Sharkhead.

But that can't be right, you know? Cause you're right here!

So that means that's GOTTA be where your other you went!

Now I don't know what you're gonna find in there, but I can tell you for sure, 100 percent D-Mac sure, that your woman is down there doing something!
