The Sky Raider Secret (20-24)

Souvenir

Captain Indomitable's Uni-Bands

You've kept Captain Indomitable's Uni-Bands, the wrist cuffs that focused his power into energy blasts. They're a reminder that sometimes the price of justice is too high. Captain Indomitable lost his life on the trail of:

The Sky Raider Secret

It began with a Sky Raider plot to eliminate three men who were meeting secretly in a Paragon City office. You stopped the assault, but were able to learn very little from the secretive gentlemen you saved. Your contact investigated, and learned that one of the men was General Toliver Jackson, former commander of Vigilance, a team of soldiers trained to fight super-powered threats. You were sent to talk to Andrea Mitchell, a former member of the team. She told you that the other two men you rescued were also involved in Vigilance. They were former Deputy Secretary of Defense Eli Hunt and Wayne Evans, AKA Captain Indomitable.

Your contact then learned that Eli Hunt was making a visit to a nearby lab. Concerned that the Sky Raiders might still be on the hunt, you followed Eli, and arrived in time to save him from the Sky Raiders' attack forces. He told you that Captain Indomitable had gone to check out some shipping irregularities at a nearby warehouse. You followed Captain Indomitable, but you were too late to save him from the Sky Raiders. On his body you found a shipping manifest, which indicated that some supplies intended for Vigilance had been diverted to another group.

You had a dead hero, a lot of questions, and the name of the man who diverted the supplies: Irving Katcher. Desperate for some answers, you showed up at Katcher's office in time to stop a team of Sky Raider assassins. And there you learned the entire, ugly story. Katcher told you that he had been tricked into diverting the supplies by a Colonel Duray. Duray disappeared along with the supplies and his men, and Katcher was left holding the bag. Your contact could only conclude that Duray and his men had become the Sky Raiders.

Stop the Sky Raiders' attack

Briefing

I learned something rather disturbing from one of my contacts in Talos Island. It seems the Sky Raiders are planning an attack on a secret conference in an office building over there. It's all very hush-hush; I can't even find out who the attendees are. But I'm sure they don't deserve to be assassinated! Will you stop the Sky Raiders' attack?

Mission Acceptance

See if you can find out anything about the meeting while you're there.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Hurry up, the Sky Raiders won't be waiting around for you!

Mission Objective(s)

The lobby is silent, except for the coffee machine humming in a corner.

• Defeat commander, his entourage
  • 3 men to rescue

You have defeated the Sky Raiders and rescued the hostages.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Douglas (Sky Raiders Captain)
• 3x Mysterious gentleman (Non-Escort Hostage)

Debriefing

I wonder who this mysterious trio was? You might think they'd give us a hint, since you saved their lives from the Sky Raiders.

Talk to Andrea Mitchell about the general

Briefing

I've identified one of the men you rescued from the Sky Raiders. He's General Toliver Johnson. He used to be in charge of the Joint Command Special Threat Response Battalion, a special team of soldiers trained to fight super-powered threats. The battalion doesn't exist anymore, but I know a woman who used to be part of it. You should go talk to Andrea Mitchell about the general. While your at it, take her these three photos of the other men.

Mission Acceptance

The Sky Raiders might be on to you, so watch your back.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You still have those photos? Get those over to Andrea!

Mission Objective(s)

• Talk to Andrea Mitchell

Debriefing

So we know that those men you rescued from the Sky Raiders used to be involved with that military unit Vigilance. What we don't know is what they're doing in Paragon City. Now that I've got some names, we can do some more digging.

Protect Eli Hunt from the Sky Raiders

Briefing

I have a lead on the whereabouts of Eli Hunt, one of the men you rescued from the Sky Raiders. One of my contacts told me Hunt's making a visit to a research lab here in Paragon City. If the Sky Raiders know about it, they might hit him there. I want you to protect Eli Hunt from the Sky Raiders. While you're at it, see if there's any more info you can dig up.

Be ready, though. If Eli knows something, you may not have much time to act on it after you rescue him. Maybe an hour or less, depending on how fast the Sky Raiders move once Hunt is rescued.

Mission Acceptance

If you save his life again, Mr. Hunt might be more willing to trust us.

Defeat commander, his entourage

Unnecessary Solicitation

Hurry up, the Sky Raiders won't be waiting around for you!

Mission Objective(s)

You look around and whistle. The equipment in one room of this state-of-the-art facility is worth more than the contents of your entire home.

• Defeat commander, his entourage
  • Rescue Eli Hunt

You defeated the Sky Raiders and rescued Eli Hunt.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Eli Hunt (hostage)
• Lt. Paulson (Sky Raiders Captain)

Investigate warehouse

Unnnecessary Solicitation

You better get over to that warehouse and find Wayne Evans.

Mission Objective(s)

Everywhere you look, bombs are strapped to the walls. If you don't get Evans out of here quickly, there won't be much left to find.

• Investigate warehouse - 60 minutes timed
  • 6 bombs remaining, Find Wayne Evans

You disarmed the bombs and found the body of Wayne Evans.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Wayne Evans (body bag)
• Lt. Marshall (Sky Raiders Captain)

Debriefing

That's a real shame about Wayne's death. I really admired him when he was Captain Indomitable. I sure hope this file you recovered was worth his life.

Let's see here. These are shipping records dating back to just after the Rikti War. Apparently the warehouse Wayne was investigating was supposed to send some supplies to the new headquarters of that military unit, Vigilance. But the stuff never showed up.

It says here the shipment was diverted on orders of the Department of Homeland Security. The guy who signed the order, Irving Katcher, is in the private sector now. Maybe he knows what happened to that old shipment.

Check out Katcher's office

Briefing

Why don't you go check out Katcher's office? We need to learn more about those military supplies he diverted from the Vigilance unit. It looks like the Sky Raiders killed Wayne Evans to keep him from finding out what happened to those supplies. I'd like his death to mean something.

Mission Acceptance

Be on the lookout for Sky Raiders.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You haven't been to Katcher's office yet.

Mission Objective(s)

The silence is broken by a sudden, strangled shout. Something bad is going on here.

• Defeat commander, his entourage
  • Find Irving Katcher

You have defeated the Sky Raiders and rescued Irving Katcher.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Irving Katcher (hostage)
• Lt. Richards (Sky Raiders Captain)

Debriefing

Have you figured it out yet? The disappearing soldiers, the stolen equipment? Col. Duray and his men have become the Sky Raiders! No wonder the army was being so secretive. A rogue military unit? It doesn't get much more embarrassing than that. Maybe someday we'll find some proof for my wild speculations; until then, I'm pretty confident in my conclusions.
