Azuria is a hero contact in the Atlas Plaza neighborhood of Atlas Park at coordinates (-80, -784, -827). Azuria is a Magic origin contact. Her level range is 1-4. Azuria is the initial contact for heroes of magical origin who start in Atlas Park. She is also an authority on many things magical, and as such, many contacts send you on missions to take mystical items to her. She is located inside City Hall.

Introductions

Contact Introduced By

• None, Azuria is an initial contact.

Contact Introduces

Single contact option

Our paths must soon diverge, but first let me introduce you to a new contact who can help you on your journey.

Level 5-9

• Laurence Mansfield

You should consider introducing yourself to Laurence Mansfield. He is one of the more personable county coroners. He can be a very helpful resource on the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. He is located in Atlas Park.

Mansfield has a strange sense of humor sometimes.

• Paco Sanchez

There's an EMT named Paco Sanchez who'd like to meet you. He's not only great at his job, but he also works well with heroes, tipping them off whenever he sees something interesting going on with the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. Paco can be found in Galaxy City.

Paco primarily cares about saving lives.

• Genevieve Sanders

You should introduce yourself to Genevieve Sanders. She's a pharmacist with a heart of gold who does a lot of community work, and she loves to help heroes against the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. Genevieve is near the hospital in Kings Row.

She is one of the nicest people I know.

Information

Magic Hero Liaison

Azuria is a seer who works with MAGI, the Modern Arcane Guild of Investigation. This section of the Federal Bureau of Super-powered Affairs assists young magic heroes in finding the right path. Some call Azuria a charlatan, but those in the mystical know believe she has great insight and wisdom. Recently she has been troubled by many grave visions about the nefarious Hellions who plague Atlas Park.

Wrong Origin Introduction

I am not part of your destiny, Character. Seek out Active Contact instead.

Initial Contact

It is my belief that you are destined for greatness, Character.

Greeting

• I have a quest for you, Character.
• I sense a soul in search of a mission.
• You seek guidance. I seek a helping hand.

Too Busy

You are overburdened, Character. I cannot in good conscience add to your load.

Too Low Level

Before I can give you more tasks, you must attain Security Level 4.

No More Missions

Nothing more I can say will help you on your journey. Perhaps your other contacts can assist you.

Store

My friend, you will need more than good karma on your journey. Call, and I shall answer.

• Inspirations (Luck, Catch a Breath, Enrage)
• Level 1 Training Enhancements (100% base costs) (Power 10 only)

You have revealed a great deal to me about your character. My secrets are yours, Character, and so are my most powerful charms.

• Inspirations (all)
• Level 1 Training Enhancements (100% base costs)

Missions (Level 1+)

Take on the Hellions and show them they aren't welcome

Briefing

Myself and others here at the Modern Arcane Guild of Investigation have sensed a disturbing trend. The Hellions are making rapid headway in their bid to take over Atlas Park. These Hellions are thugs who have discovered some source of dark mystic powers, and use them to enforce a brutal reign of terror on the streets. I need you to take on the Hellions and show them they aren't welcome.

Mission Acceptance

These Hellions are playing with powers they do not understand, and care little for who gets hurt. I would recommend you begin first by battling them on the streets of the city. Defeat 5 of their number to introduce yourself to them.

Repel Hellions from Atlas Park

Unnecessary Solicitation

Please attend to the Hellions.

Mission Objective(s)

• Repel Hellions from Atlas Park
  • Defeat 5 Hellions

You found a crumpled note on one of the defeated Hellions.

	Crumpled note
	The note reads: 'Another new hero has arrived on the scene. This Character could become a serious problem, and might disrupt the unloading of the latest artifact. We need to meet and discuss potential solutions.' There is also a time and place on the note.

Bust gang leader and his crew

Hellion Mission

Unnecessary Solicitation

It does not surprise me that they know of you already, Character. Your name is writ large in the book of fate.

Mission Objective(s)

This isn't the usual aroma of gun polish and grease. There's a musty odor in this room, the smell of something ancient.

• Bust gang leader and his crew

You found an ancient statue on one of the defeated Hellions.

	Clay statue
	This small clay statue of a man is chipped in a dozen places. It looks as though it could easily be thousands of years old.

Debriefing

I am glad to see you have taken the initiative in this matter. It is no surprise that the Hellions already consider you a threat, Character.

This figure you found is an ushabti! Such statues were buried with the Egyptian dead; it was believed that they would perform their master's work in the afterlife. The Egyptians were no strangers to magic, and some of these ushabtis are invested with great power. I don't understand where the Hellions would get such an item. This will bear further investigation.

Investigate the Hellions hideout and capture Destructor

Briefing

Ever since the Hellions sprung up, they've been trafficking in stolen magical artifacts. These are often items of little power, but the number of them is truly astonishing. We'd like to find out who's been supplying them, and we may have a chance to do so. A Hellion fixer called Destructor is thought to be hiding out in Atlas Park. I need you to investigate the Hellions' hideout and capture him.

Mission Acceptance

Your primary objective is to find and capture Hades and his cronies. With them in custody, we may be able to get some answers.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You haven't dealt with the Hellions hideout.

Mission Objective(s)

Cigarette butts and spent ammunition litter the floor. It looks like the Hellions have been holed up here for a while.

• Bust Destructor and his crew

You defeated all the Hellions.

	Magical talismans
	These magical talismans you took from the Hellions hold little power, but the sheer quantity of them is staggering. The Hellions must be connected to someone more powerful than themselves.

Notes

• The Hellion boss's name can vary. Possible names include Destructor, Hades, Hell Storm, Hellfire, Inferno, Red Reaver, Baphomet and Pulverizer.

NPCs

• Destructor/Hades/Hell Storm/Hellfire/Inferno/Red Reaver/Baphomet/Pulverizer (Hellions Fallen Buckshot)

Enemies

Hellions

Debriefing

I will begin looking for this Mr. Hill the thugs mentioned. It's not much to go on, but at least it's something. Once again, the Entities seem very pleased with your progress.

Find the stolen locket

Briefing

One of MAGI's associates was mugged last night, and I have reason to believe it was no random crime. Helen Klein is a Middling, one of those associates not gifted with the arcane arts. The locket the Hellions took from her was no mere heirloom; it was a ward meant to protect her from dark forces. Sadly, it could do little against brute thugs.

I've done a divination, and I feel the pendant's presence in the Smathery & Sons warehouse in Atlas Park. Character, will you find the stolen locket?

Mission Acceptance

These Hellions are fools. They seek to tease powers from dark forces they do not understand.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You haven't recovered Helen Klein's locket yet.

Mission Objective(s)

When the Hellions moved in, the warehouse employees learned that work could be hazardous to their health. Now, this warehouse is nothing more than a Hellions hideout.

• Recover the locket

You got the locket!

	Helen Klein's pendant
	This is the locket the Hellions stole from the Middling Helen Klein, who works for MAGI.

Notes

• The mugging victim's name can vary. Possibilities include Helen Klein and Andrea Mollison. The stolen item may also vary between Locket, Pendant, and Brooch.

Enemies

Hellions

Debriefing

Thank you so much for finding Helen Klein's pendant. I feel that the Entities of the otherworlds wish to thank you as well.

Warn Sarah Peters of imminent peril

Briefing

A Seer here at MAGI came to me this morning out of grave concern for our associate Sarah Peters. According to this Seer, Sarah Peters is about to suffer a life-threatening incident that can be prevented by a simple warning. Will you warn this citizen of the imminent peril?

Mission Acceptance

Both I and the Entities will thank you for this. You should seek out Sarah Peters in Atlas Park and deliver the following message:

'Those who walk live yet dead,
shall from the Row of Kings make way,
Come to bring a mortal dread,
and make Sarah Peters pay.
In the second shadow of the night, Sarah Peters must take flight.'

Thank you, Character.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You need to warn Sarah Peters soon!

NOTES:

• The contact for this mission can be Sarah Peters or Iris Parker.

Mission Objective(s)

• Warn Sarah Peters

Sarah Peters

Ambush! After talking to Sarah Peters, there will be an ambush by a group of Hellions.

Debriefing

The Entities are pleased with your performance today.

Prevent the Hellions from harassing the civilian populace

Briefing

The Hellions seem to get a big thrill out of frightening Atlas Park citizens these days. It's getting so bad that people won't leave their houses in groups of fewer than three! Will you prevent the Hellions from harassing the civilian populace? If people can't feel safe in Atlas Park, we may truly be losing the battle for this city.

Mission Acceptance

The Hellions grow bold, for they still think that the city's heroes are weak. Please show them how wrong they are.

Unnecessary Solicitation

The Hellions are still causing panic on the streets.

Mission Objective(s)

• Combat Hellion menace
  • Defeat 10 Hellions

You have discouraged the Hellions from harassing civilians in Atlas Park.

Debriefing

Soon the Hellions will learn to fear the name of Character.

Missions (Level 4+)

Talk to the Security Chief

Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

I need you to go talk to the Atlas Park Security Chief. He has information about the current situation here in Atlas Park. Your compass will guide you there.

Mission Acceptance

Please listen carefully to the Security Chief. If he has a task for you, it will be very important.

Unnecessary Solicitation

The Security Chief just called again; he really needs your help!

Mission Objective(s)

• Talk to Security Chief

Security Chief (Atlas Park)

Atlas Park briefing

Atlas Park is probably the finest place in the city. Clean and beautiful, hustling and bustling, Atlas Park was the first place to be restored after the Rikti War. Of course, the Hellions do cause some problems here and there. They started out as just a street gang, but some of them seem to have acquired pretty unusual abilities. The police can't do much about superpowered thugs; it's up to you Heroes to help out.

Keep peace in Atlas Park

Unnecessary Solicitation

You should be out fighting Hellions.

Mission Objective(s)

• Keep peace in Atlas Park
  • Defeat 5 Hellions

You have defeated 5 Hellions.

Enemies

Hellions

Debriefing

Well done, Character. With Heroes like you around we have a chance to make Atlas Park safe for everyone.
