Briefing

Welcome to the Powers Division, recruit.

Today you will have your first live fire mission. You've been assigned to Reese, one of the Top Dogs in the Powers Division.

Before you meet with him, I'd like to send you through basic training.

Click on any of the lines of text below to continue this conversation.

If you choose BEGINNER, you will be taught the game play basics before meeting Reese. Only choose VETERAN if you are already familiar with combat, navigation, conning, and power usage in City of Heroes.

(BEGINNER) Alright, sounds good. I'm ready for basic training. (A)

I'm going to send you to some of my associates.

They will teach you combat basics, and how to use your powers. Be sure to make good use of their expertise and they will teach you the skills you need to tackle whatever mission Reese might throw you into.

Are you ready?

As you go through the tutorial, you will see dialog options labeled (Optional). These options will allow you to learn more about the subject being taught, or more about the lore of Praetoria.

Yes, where to?

(Optional) There's something else I meant to ask you.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(VETERAN) I'm a veteran, I don't need to go through bootcamp again.
(Optional) Wait, something isn't right here.

What? What is it that is bothering you, Character?

(Optional) Where am I? (B)

You must not be from around here. This is Praetoria, Emperor Cole's utopia.

The Powers Division is a special division of the Praetorian Police Department: the PPD. Most of the PPD do the day-to-day maintenance of the peace, but the Powers Division is called in for missions that require your special skills. Just because you have super powers doesn't mean you're better than anybody. It means you have a civic duty to serve.

Me? I chose this job because I believe in Emperor Cole's vision.

What is this mission you mentioned?

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) What? I didn't join the Powers Division!

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (C)

(Optional) Yeah, right. (D)

Look, kid. You obviously don't like me, and I don't like your attitude. But if you want to get out of the Powers Division already, you'll have to go take it up with Reese.

Alright, I'll do that.

Before you meet with Reese, I'd like to send you through basic training. This will teach you the skills you need to tackle whatever mission Reese might throw you into.

Unless you're good to go, of course. Can never tell how much you Powers Division people already know.

(Optional) What? I didn't join the Powers Division! (C)

Hahaha. And yet here you are.

If you have super powers, want to carry a gun or other weapon, or are an expert in unarmed combat, you join the Powers Division.

It's the law. We have a 100% recruitment rate.

Fine. What is my mission?

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) I can't own a weapon or be a martial arts expert without being in Powers Division? (E)

Why would you want a weapon? Emperor Cole has abolished war and outlawed all forms of unauthorized weaponry. The only reason to have unauthorized weaponry would be to commit crime.

Fine. What is my mission?

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) What about self-defense?

The PPD and Powers Division defend the people from all outside threats. You don't need self-defense.

Unauthorized thugs with weapons are a threat to public safety.

But as a member of Powers Division you have full authorization to use lethal force against anyone using unauthorized weaponry.

I'm ready to enforce public safety.

(Optional) Wait, I've never heard of these laws!

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (B)

(Optional) Yeah, we'll see about that.

(Optional) Powers Division? I don't have super powers. (Natural origin only)

Hahaha. Your natural abilities far surpass those of normal beings.

If you have super powers, want to carry a gun or other weapon, or are an expert in unarmed combat, you join the Powers Division.

It's the law. We have a 100% recruit rate.

Talk to Interrogator Hoffman

First speak to Interrogator Hoffman. He'll give you a chance to use some of your powers.

He's in the parking lot behind me, talk to him and he'll tell you about how to use your powers and gauge your opponents.

Your compass shows your current task, as seen here.

Use Q and E to turn until the marker is centered on your compass and follow the marker.

Good luck, Character.

Briefing

Hello Character, glad to have you on our side. I will be in charge of getting you combat ready.

Show me what you've got. Test out your powers on one of these broken clockwork target dummies.

Click on a clockwork or hit the Tab key to select it, then hit F to get in range.

You can click on the powers in your tray to activate them.

Sounds like fun.

(Optional) What's wrong with these clockwork?

The Resistance sometimes hacks our clockwork and turns them against us. I have a few clockwork here that were reclaimed from the Resistance. Unfortunately, in my attempt to retrieve data from them, they seized up into this malfunctioning mode that wiped their memory.

They're useless now.

I have a great use for them. Target practice.

Briefing

Nice one. I'd say you're ready. Get yourself over to Dr. Steffard, he'll tell you more about how to use your powers.

He's not far, just up the street to my right here.

Okay, thanks.
(Optional Help) I can't attack fast enough.

You can't just attack non-stop. That's because all powers have a recharge time.

When you use a power, it goes dark until it recharges. If you attempt to use it before it finishes recharging, you will queue it up for use as your next attack.

The simple powers you have right now have relatively short recharge times. Powers you earn later in your career are more powerful, but take longer to recharge.

Ok, I get it. I think I'm ready for some action.

(Optional Help) These guys are real pushovers.

True, but you will meet tougher enemies. There are three basic ranks:

Minions, like these, are the weakest and are easiest to defeat.

Lieutenants are stronger, and have more attacks.

Bosses are the strongest and are particularly resistant to status effects. You may need backup when fighting a boss.

When you target an enemy or ally, you can note the difficulty of that target by the color of the name.

Gray names mean the enemy is quite weak and worth no rewards.

Green and Blue names mean they are weak and give minor rewards.

White means they are the same level as yourself and give normal rewards.

Yellow, Orange, and Red names are enemies that are tougher than you.

Purple names mean enemies that are vastly superior to you. If you train hard and hone your powers, you may eventually be able to take on purples.

Ok, I get it. I think I'm ready for some action.

Right. Get yourself over to Dr. Steffard, he'll tell you more about how to use your powers.

He's not far, just up the street to my right here.

Okay, thanks.

Hello. I'm Dr. Steffard. You must be the new recruit.

Ah, here you are. Character, a lovely Archetype. I saw you demolish that robot with great panache! Impressive.

My research on super powered individuals is indeed extensive, my resume vast. I have extrapolated theoretical super powered beings that were then found to exist in the wild!

My theories on Origin supers of course predicted you could exist; so I know everything about how your powers work. I...

I'm in a bit of a hurry. Could you sign these papers? (A)

Sorry, here I am talking away at you; you should probably be heading over to Reese to get your mission. Make sure you take these papers. They have your medical clearance that you are combat ready.

You just got a Clue! To read your clues, click on 'Clues' at the bottom of your compass.

(Optional Help) How do I not die while 'defending peace'? (D)

Ah, do not worry. When you joined the Powers Division, you were tagged by the Medicom.

The Medicom monitors your current medical status at all times, and if you are defeated, it can instantly transport you to the nearest medical facility where you will enjoy a speedy recovery.

Of course, if you have a nearby associate who can revive you, you can wait for that instead by just not clicking Go to Hospital.

What a relief. I really should be going.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) Glad to hear it. How reliable are these Medicoms?

Quite reliable. Why, once you have had a Medicom frequency applied to you, it cannot be undone. So no matter what, even if you left the Powers Division, you would still be covered.

... Of course if you traveled to another dimension or something, it probably wouldn't work. Unless they somehow had an identical Medicom system. But that's highly unlikely, unless that dimension was a near-mirror of this one.

Some people surmise that these devices are so advanced that they must be alien technology! This is nonsense, as the technology was developed by Dr. Keyes himself, a brilliant...

Talk to Reese

Unnecessary Solicitation Hello Character, I'm tickled pink that you'd come talk to me without having any particular reason to do so.

Perhaps you've come to hear some of my dissertations on inter-origin power deconstruction? No? Perhaps my grand unifying theory on hero costumes? Not that either? It has a really good bit about the deficiencies of capes. No? Well I guess I won't waste anymore of your time.

Mission Objective(s)

Talk to Reese
- Precinct Five

Welcome to Praetoria

You'll need to talk to Reese. He's a pretty busy guy, but if you want to get anywhere in Praetoria, you'll have to talk to him.

Wait a sec, there's something on my comm...

It's The Destroyers!

They're assaulting the precinct! Get over there, Character.

Where can I find Reese?

Reese will be on the near side of the precinct, fighting off the Destroyers. Just go up the street behind me and turn left; you can't miss him.

Talk to Reese

Good luck, Character.

Reese

Briefing

Hey new recruit, don't just stand there lollygagging. Can't you see we have a situation here?

Here are some enhancements, they'll increase your damage output a bit.

Get them slotted and we can get started.

I'm ready now.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented.

(Optional Help) How do I slot and use enhancements?

Use these enhancements to improve your powers.

Click Enhancements on the Powers Tray to see the enhancements you have. On that tab, click Manage to go to the enhancement management screen.

You can put each enhancement on a different power, or stack them both on a single slot to get a slightly stronger one.

I'm ready now. (A)

I got the memo about you, Character. You're being assigned to my division for a while.

Do you know who I am? I am a Top Dog in Praetor White's Powers Division. That means I'm famous, well known, and respected.

However, I have a task that can only be handled by an unrecognizable greenie. That's you.

What do you need me to do?

(Optional) What's going on here? (B)

The Destroyers are assaulting the precinct, what's it look like? Feel free to take down a few on the way to your mission, but as you can see, I pretty much have it under control.

Sounds like a plan.

(Optional) Who are the Destroyers?

The Destroyers believe in only one thing: the strong make the rules. They've been getting more violent every day, but they are disorganized anarchists. So once I wipe them out, they're gone. I'll probably be done with them by the time you get back out.

The Resistance are another thing entirely; they are subverting members of our orderly society with their lies and propaganda. I need an insider to weed them out. That's where you come in.

Me? What can I do?

(Optional) I don't want to be part of this, I have my own things to do.

Throwing in the towel your first day on the job? That's funny. You don't tell me when you resign, I tell you when you resign. Look here, you slimy weasel, you work with me or you disappear. We don't let powered individuals roam free on the streets unless they are serving Emperor Cole.

Whatever. What's my mission?

(Optional) I work for me, got it? (D)

That's nothing new, that's why I picked you for this mission.

You've got spirit. I've got a lot on my shoulders here and I need someone who I don't need to babysit. If you can prove yourself on this mission, I will make it worth your while.

Fine

Welcome to Powers Division

I need you to infiltrate the Resistance.

There are Destroyers all over the streets, it's a mess. Don't be fooled, however. They're just pawns of the real threat to peace in Praetoria: the Resistance.

The Resistance is always looking for new recruits. I've made it known that you aren't happy being inducted into Powers Division. This should be enough to get your foot in the door. The rest is on you.

Where should I go to find the recruiter?

There's a Resistance recruiter that is ready to meet you. Go to the door under the nearby underpass; that door will take you into the underground.

Once you make contact with the Resistance member, I will send in additional troops to arrest him and his buddies.

Be careful, the Resistance will tell you anything to get you to join them. Don't fall into the trap of believing their lies.

(Optional) There's something else I meant to ask you.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

Unsolicited Contact

You need to enter the underground, I will send in backup once you make contact.

Follow the marker on your compass to the underground entrance. If the marker gets deselected, you can reselect it by clicking on the mission tab, then selecting the mission from Reese.

Mission Objective(s)

You've made your way into the den where the Resistance are. Up ahead, you can hear the sound of a Clockwork repairing itself.

Acknowledged.

This clockwork has been programmed with several pre-recorded messages to better interface with end users. Unfortunately due to some of the upgrades this clockwork has re-received, the playback mechanism has been damaged, so some skip-skipping is inevitable.

LoA.dIn.G[rDa.taB.aSe] // enCylopedIA M0!]#

A-a-affirmed. First p-p-programmed s-s-speech a-a-alert launching.

The Resistance are a g-g-group of f-f-freedom fighters led by Calvin Scott. T-t-their goal is to b-bring down the t-t-yrant, Marcus Cole. H-he has taken away t-too many of o-our l-liberties in the n-name of peace. T-t-the f-f-final straw for the Resistance was the r-r-removal of the freedom of thought. A-a-all t-thoughts of the people of P-praetoria are now m-monitored by th-th-the Seers.

However, once you join the Resistance, we will be able to protect your thoughts. Eventually, with Cole's de-destruction, the p-people of P-p-praetoria will be free once more.

Pl-pl-please tell me what else I can prop-properly inform you on.

(Optional) Tell me about Emperor Cole

Em-em-emperor Marcus Cole is the Emperor of the Earth. The hi-hi-history books have recorded that he has saved the world countless times over. It is said he has withstood a nuclear attack and has fended off Hamidon with his bare hands. The pe-pe-people of Praetoria believe that he is a god come to show us the way to perfection.

He claims re-re-responsibility for saving Praetoria from the br-brink of total destruction and creating the ut-ut-utopia that it is today.

(Optional) How does Cole keep the peace here? (E)

The Praetorian Police Department or the P.P.D. are Cole's po-po-police force that are given full authority to keep peace in Praetoria. The people are do-do-docile for the most part, so there is not much of a need for them on a da-da-daily basis.

There are several divisions of the P.P.D., such as the Powers Division, a gro-gr-group of beings with super powers. You were id-id-identified as a member of the Powers Division - ev-ev-every being in Praetoria who has heightened abilities mu-mu-must be registered with the Powers Division. Praetor White is in charge of the Powers Division.

(Optional) What does your database say about Praetoria?

Praetoria is the ca-ca-capital city of Earth. It acts as the seat of power for the rest of the world.

It is broken up into a se-se-several districts. We're currently below No-no-nova Praetoria, the heart of Praetoria. This is wh-where Emperor Cole's tower is located. You can see the to-to-tower from anywhere in the city. Imperial City is the thriving business area you may have seen across the river before you came down here. Finally, there is Neutropolis which is where all the scientific research and de-de-development are done.

(Optional) Tell me about the other Clockwork.

The Cl-cl-clockwork are Praetoria's work force. We were in-in-invented and designed by Anti-Matter. We do the work that others do not want to-to-to do. We are also used by the P.P.D. to help retrieve anyone they believe is going to be a problem. We ask no questions and do exactly as we're told.

Some Clockwork, like myself, have been repr-pr-programmed by the Resistance to serve their purposes.

(Optional) Tell me about the P.P.D.

Qry=reS; gEt.tru[haX.dat[rEs]] // feTcH trU!#

DAt=chk; oVR.Wrt[dAT[rEs]] // datA OVerrrr!]#

The Re-re-re-resistance are a small group of people who believe that Cole's rule is not what it appears to be. Most Resistance members in Praetoria would be immediately recognized by the monitors topside, so must stay underground to avoid capture.

The Resistance fights for tho-those who have been run over by Cole's governmental machine, trying to help those who can't help themselves while att-att-attempting to change the government by any means necessary.

I'm ready to go (C)

I ha-ha-have been told to direct you to the do-do-door up ahead. You ca-ca-can destroy it to mo-mo-move forward. I will stay here in the me-me-me-meantime until events on the su-surface have calmed.

You now have a choice - you can choose to leave the Clockwork down here, or convince it that the PPD have cleared away from the surface. If the Clockwork goes to the surface, the PPD will scan it for all information regarding the Resistance, then destroy it.

These minor choices will appear throughout your travels in Praetoria. They will not change your alignment, but will affect the dialog and story.

(Leave)

(Optional) (Convince the Clockwork to go topside)

Resistance Clockwork Dialogue

Understood Character, I will re-re-return to the surface. Thank you for your assistance.

Not a problem.

	Clockwork Retrieved
	A few moments after the Clockwork leaves the warehouse, you receive information on your PDA from Reese, saying that they have captured the Clockwork you sent up and are in the process of retrieving information from it. Reese reports back shortly afterwards that they were able to discover the location of a Resistance base from that Clockwork. A squad of PPD are now on their way to the hideout.

Yo, Character, it's Wrencher, the guy you're meeting with.
We got a problem, PPD chased us right into a den of ghouls! Our boys could use your help!

Rothstein

Briefing

Whew, man, just our luck huh?

PPD chase us right into an old ghoul den! Sure hope that Wrencher is doing OK...

Anyway, the name's Rothstein. You're that new guy / gal that we're getting from Powers Division, right? Good to have you on board to help us.

Despite talking face to face with a high-ranking member of the Resistance, you won't be able to bring him back to the Loyalists, given the sheer amount of support he has around him.

Thanks! (Leave)

(Optional) Tell me more about the Resistance. (A)

I'll talk to you in plain talk for now, don't wanna get you all confused.

Us, the Resistance? We're the last, best hope for humanity here in Praetoria. Cole's got all these people brain-washed into thinking that what he decides is best for everyone. But really, it's all just what's best for him.

Did you know folks can't own their own guns in Praetoria without having to sign up to join the PPD or Powers Division? It's nuts! Cole claims it's because, 'you don't need guns for your own protection when we're protecting you'.

Us in the Resistance, we're all about power to the people and givin' it to them no matter what.

You wanna know about them ghouls too, or you goin' forward?

Good to know. I need to get moving, though. See you around. (Leave)

(Optional) Yes! Tell me about the Ghouls.

Yeah, we ain't really sure what they are. Some of the older guys in the Resistance say that they just sort appeared one day in the tunnels. Ever since then, we gotta be careful of where we go. You get ambushed by a horde of those things, you ain't coming back.

Those ghouls will eat you alive if they get the chance - they're nothing but a bunch of monsters. Some folks say that we made them, but seriously, what're we gonna use to make those monsters? I wish we could make ourselves an army of monsters to throw at Cole, believe me!

So you wanna know more about us, or you gotta be headin' forward?

Right...well, I need to get going now. (Leave)

You know somethin', nobody here really stops to smell the roses, y'know? I got a little somethin' for ya, Character.

No thanks, I'm good.

(Optional) What is it?

Here, little token of appreciation, from me to you. Take it easy.

You just received a badge! Badges are awarded for various accomplishments. Some are easier to get than others. To see what badges you have, click on the word Badge located on your navigation bar.

Avid Reader

You take the time to listen to what everyone has to say very carefully, and read everything you run across. As a reward for this remarkable trait, you have more than earned this badge.

See down there? That's day to day in the tunnels, trying our best not to get chomped.

We get out of here fast enough, we can scamp and let them PPD badgers and Ghouls chomp - wha?! Hold on, Character, we're under attack! It's the PPD!

If you expressed doubts to Reese

Word on the street is that you ain't too pleased with being part of the Powers Division.

We could use more folks like you, people willin' to talk back to them guys in power. We meet up, we can - wha?! Hold on Character, it's the PPD!

PPD Trooper Dialogue

Ugh! Hey give that radio ba-!

PPD Trooper Dialogue

Loyalists and Wrencher

Loyalist Member: You're not going anywhere, terrorist.
Loyalist Member: Your attacks on the people of Praetoria end today!
Loyalist Leader: Character! So, Praetor White couldn't just let the PPD handle this, huh?
Loyalist Leader: As you can see, we're finishing things up here with the Resistance.
Loyalist Leader: But I guess you're here to 'show us how it's done', aren't you?
Loyalist Leader: Are you going to follow through on your orders...
Loyalist Leader: ...and take down this Resistance scum?

Resistance Choice

Join the Resistance
Fight the P.P.D. officers and help the member of the resistance escape.
Joining the Resistance
Resistance members oppose the regime of Emperor Cole, seeking to reveal the true cost of utopia to a populace kept blissfully unaware.
(As the story of Praetoria unfolds your character will have opportunities to change their mind and switch sides.)

Resistance Member

You have lent your support to the Praetorian Resistance to overthrow Emperor Cole, or at least appeared to do so.

Mission Objective(s)

Defeat the two Loyalists

Wrencher and the PPD Dialogue

Mission Objective(s)

Speak with Wrencher

Wrencher

Briefing

Good to see you're on our side, Character, you're a real slammer huh? There's someone who wants to speak with you. I think you might've heard of him - Calvin Scott. He's here now, near the entrance back to topside. You should go speak with him - he'll tell you what's gotta be done.

Good luck.

I'll go speak with Calvin Scott.

	The Resistance
	Despite being sent into the tunnels to arrest a member of the Resistance, you chose to side with them, freeing the man who guided you through the ghoul-infested tunnels.

Mission Objective(s)

Speak with Calvin Scott

Calvin Scott (Praetorian)

Briefing

Character, good to see you. I'm the leader of the Resistance here in Praetoria. I'm pleased to see you're on our side - to be honest, I was a little nervous that you were going to turn on us.

Let's get to work.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) Why are you here talking to me? What are you doing here?

I usually try to be present when we get someone already registered with the Powers Division to come on board. Most of our members who have super-powers are usually renegade - they can't be seen topside.

You, however, are different. The Praetorian government sees you as a loyal follower. I want to use that to our advantage - since you've shown you want to help the Resistance.

I'm ready to get working.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) How are we going to use that?

I'm not too sure how gung-ho you were with the Powers Divison before, but now we need you to be all for it.

If you're going to do work for the Resistance, we're going to need Cole and his goons to believe you're on their side.

To that end, I need you to speak with Praetor White and work your way deeper into the Powers Division.

I'm ready to get working.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) So, I'm still going to do the work of the Loyalists?

Not exactly.

Once you've proven to Praetor White that you're a 'fine, upstanding member of the Powers Division', you can seek out members of the Resistance throughout Praetoria - maybe even normal folk who are sympathetic to our cause.

Then you'll be able to fight the good fight. Just remember though, you need to keep up the facade that you're with the Powers Division. It's difficult, but we need a man within the organization.

There is... another way you could help us, if you're interested in hearing me out.

I'll figure it out as I go - I'm going topside.

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) What's the other way?

We have plenty of people fighting the good fight, but only a few... insiders within the Loyalists.

We could use someone who works exclusively with the Loyalists. It'll be a dangerous job - and you'll have to be sure not to get caught. You'll probably have to do some... questionable things against us in order to gain the full trust of the Loyalists as well.

However, when you get to major operations, you can contact me. We'll figure out what you can do to turn the operation towards our favor.

You have the option, as a member of the Resistance, to do missions on the sides of the Loyalists. They will play through normally, however at certain points you will be able to contact Calvin Scott to add options to the mission in order to swing events in favor of the Resistance.

I'll think on it. For now I'm going topside. (A)

Good luck then, Character. You'll want to contact Praetor White as soon as you get topside. Be careful around Praetor White, his cool exterior is just cover for his true nature: a marauder. He's brutal, cruel, and selfish. Show any weakness around him and he'll break you in half. You might not like it, but for now you'll have to put up with his attitude.

And remember, we need you as our inside man in Powers Division. Do what you need to do to gain their trust, but don't believe anything those Loyalist scum tell you.

I'll make sure to be careful.

Agent of Praetoria

You stand on the fragile tipping point between Order and Chaos. Which way will you go?

Mission Objective(s)

Get back into Nova Praetoria

Mission Objective(s)

Speak with Praetor White

Loyalist Choice

Remain a Loyalist
Aid the PPD in arresting the member of the Resistance.
Being a Loyalist
Loyalists support the vision of a peaceful and orderly civilization led by Marcus Cole. They seek to keep Praetoria a peaceful place by any means necessary.
(As the story of Praetoria unfolds your character will have opportunities to change their mind and switch sides.)

Loyalist

You spent some effort bolstering the Praetorian regime of Emperor Cole, or at least appeared to do so.

Mission Objective(s)

Defeat Wrencher

Wrencher and the PPD Dialogue

Mission Objective(s)

Speak with the Loyalist Leader

Loyalist Leader

Briefing

You made the right choice, Character. Calvin Scott and his little band of subversives want only to tear down the utopia Emperor Cole has built for us.

Just remember, we don't need you here. The PPD has what it takes to bring down the Resistance - without the help from super-powered types like you.

Provost Marchand is coming down to speak with you - looks like he's taken an interest in you.

Alright.

(Optional) What's your problem? I just helped you with that Resistance soldier!

The problem, Character, is that I don't like it when someone assumes they can do my job better than me. We all know that Cole is recalling supers from all over the world because he thinks the PPD are slacking off in bringing down the Resistance.

We're out to show you and Emperor Cole that the PPD have what it takes to stop this Resistance threat - even if we don't have your heightened abilities.

I'm here to keep my job, even if some other members of the PPD are slacking off. Got it?

Easy there. I'd best do speak with the Provost before you say something you'll regret.

Back off, buddy. I see you've lost several men today, don't let it get to you.

We are fighting the good fight together, officer. Remember that.

	The Loyalists
	You fulfilled the mission that Reese sent you on, putting down the member of the Resistance you were sent in to find.

Mission Objective(s)

Speak with Provost Marchand

Provost Marchand

Briefing

Hello, Character. I am Provost Marshal Gerard T. Marchand. I run all military operations for Emperor Cole - this means I also help run the PPD.

I'm impressed at your actions here today with the Resistance. Look around you, Character. All of these PPD died trying to get this one Resistance member. It's inefficient. I've done my best with the PPD, but it isn't enough.

We need people like you to help defend Praetoria against the Resistance, and other threats.

And believe me, there are many that would seek to destroy our beautiful city.

Right, look, let's just get moving. What's the next step?

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) What are these other threats?

Currently in Nova Praetoria we're dealing with the Destroyers, a group of psychopaths who, as you may guess, wish to spread destruction amongst our beautiful city.

They are our top priority on the surface of Praetoria, next to the Resistance. We, of course, always have the threat of Hamidon lurking outside of Nova, but our sonic barriers are keeping the beast at bay.

Okay, what's next?

This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)

(Optional) Wait, what's a Hamidon?

You don't know?

Hamidon is a monster of pure malice. It nearly destroyed the entire world during the Hamidon Wars in the 70s.

Emperor Cole is the only reason why we still exist today. He rallied the people of this land to fight the monsters of Hamidon and eventually faced off against the beast by himself.

Though Cole did not destroy Hamidon, he was able to push the monster back, allowing us the chance to rebuild civilization.

We're safe from Hamidon, for now, though it is a threat that still looms over us.

Interesting. So what's next? (A)

Exit through the door behind me and speak with Praetor White.

While I am in charge of Praetoria's military, he is the head of Powers Division. You'll be able to start you career in protecting Praetoria - or perhaps your rise to power - with him.

He is somewhat rough around the edges, but I fully trust him with the safety of our great city.

Sounds good.

+:When you target an enemy or ally, you can note the difficulty of that target by the color of the name.

+:'''{{yellow|Yellow}}''', '''{{darkorange|Orange}}''', and '''{{red|Red}}''' names are enemies that are tougher than you.

+Also, whenever you have a foe held, immobilized, slept, or stunned, you deal additional damage to that foe. You also have heals and buffs you can use on your allies and sometimes on yourself, and debuffs you can use on enemies.

+You can set any of your minions to Bodyguard by right-clicking them, selecting the Defensive stance and then using the Follow, Goto, or Stay order.

+{{Mission Objective|Entrance=|Primary=Speak with Calvin Scott|Secondary=|Additional=|Completion=}}
+{{Mission Briefing|Contact=Calvin Scott (Praetorian)|Text={{Character}}, good to see you. I'm the leader of the Resistance here in Praetoria. I'm pleased to see you're on our side - to be honest, I was a little nervous that you were going to turn on us.
+*{{green|Let's get to work.}}
+:{{DialogueLoop}} ''(A)''
+*{{green|(Optional) Why are you here talking to me? What are you doing here?}}
+:I usually try to be present when we get someone already registered with the {{yellow|Powers Division}} to come on board. Most of our members who have super-powers are usually renegade - they can't be seen topside.
+:''You'', however, are different. The Praetorian government sees you as a loyal follower. I want to use that to our advantage - since you've shown you want to help the Resistance.
+:*{{green|I'm ready to get working.}}
+::{{DialogueLoop}} ''(A)''
+:*{{green|(Optional) How are we going to use that?}}
+::I'm not too sure how gung-ho you were with the Powers Divison before, but now we need you to be all for it.
+::If you're going to do work for the Resistance, we're going to need Cole and his goons to believe you're on their side.
+::To that end, {{yellow|I need you to speak with Praetor White and work your way deeper into the Powers Division.}}
+::*{{green|I'm ready to get working.}}
+:::{{DialogueLoop}} ''(A)''
+::*{{green|(Optional) So, I'm still going to do the work of the Loyalists?}}
+:::Not exactly.
+:::Once you've proven to Praetor White that you're a 'fine, upstanding member of the Powers Division', you can seek out members of the Resistance throughout Praetoria - maybe even normal folk who are sympathetic to our cause.
+:::''Then'' you'll be able to fight the good fight. Just remember though, ''you need to keep up the facade that you're with the Powers Division''. It's difficult, but we need a man within the organization.
+:::There is... another way you could help us, if you're interested in hearing me out.
+:::*{{green|I'll figure it out as I go - I'm going topside.}}
+::::{{DialogueLoop}} ''(A)''
+:::*{{green|(Optional) What's the other way?}}
+::::We have plenty of people fighting the good fight, but only a few... insiders within the Loyalists.
+::::We could use someone who works exclusively with the Loyalists. It'll be a dangerous job - and you'll have to be sure not to get caught. You'll probably have to do some... questionable things against us in order to gain the full trust of the Loyalists as well.
+::::However, when you get to major operations, you can contact me. We'll figure out what you can do to turn the operation towards our favor.
+::::{{darkorange|You have the option, as a member of the Resistance, to do missions on the sides of the Loyalists. They will play through normally, however at certain points you will be able to contact Calvin Scott to add options to the mission in order to swing events in favor of the Resistance.}}
+::::*{{green|I'll think on it. For now I'm going topside.}} ''(A)''
+::::Good luck then, {{Character}}. You'll want to contact Praetor White as soon as you get topside. Be careful around Praetor White, his cool exterior is just cover for his true nature: a marauder. He's brutal, cruel, and selfish. Show any weakness around him and he'll break you in half. You might not like it, but for now you'll have to put up with his attitude.
+::::And remember, we need you as our inside man in Powers Division. Do what you need to do to gain their trust, but don't believe ''anything'' those Loyalist scum tell you.
+::::*{{green|I'll make sure to be careful.}}}}

+You made the right choice, {{Character}}. Calvin Scott and his little band of subversives want only to tear down the utopia Emperor Cole has built for us.
+Just remember, we don't ''need'' you here. The PPD has what it takes to bring down the Resistance - without the help from super-powered types like you.
+{{yellow|Provost Marchand}} is coming down to speak with you - looks like he's taken an interest in you.
+*{{green|Alright.}}
+*{{green|(Optional) What's your problem? I just helped you with that Resistance soldier!}}
+:The ''problem'', {{Character}}, is that I don't like it when someone assumes they can do my job better than me. We all know that Cole is recalling supers from all over the world because he thinks the PPD are slacking off in bringing down the Resistance.
+:We're out to show you ''and'' Emperor Cole that the PPD have what it takes to stop this Resistance threat - even if we don't have your heightened abilities.
+:I'm here to keep my job, even if some other members of the PPD are slacking off. Got it?
+:*{{green|Easy there. I'd best do speak with the Provost before you say something you'll regret.}}
+:*{{green|Back off, buddy. I see you've lost several men today, don't let it get to you.}}

+{{Mission Objective|Entrance=|Primary=Speak with Provost Marchand|Secondary=|Additional=|Completion=}}
+{{Mission Briefing|Contact=Provost Marchand|Text=Hello, {{Character}}. I am {{yellow|Provost Marshal Gerard T. Marchand}}. I run all military operations for Emperor Cole - this means I also help run the PPD.
+I'm impressed at your actions here today with the Resistance. Look around you, {{Character}}. All of these PPD died trying to get this one Resistance member. It's inefficient. I've done my best with the PPD, but it isn't enough.
+We need people like ''you'' to help defend Praetoria against the Resistance, and other threats.
+And believe me, there are ''many'' that would seek to destroy our beautiful city.
+*{{green|Right, look, let's just get moving. What's the next step?}}
+:{{DialogueLoop}} ''(A)''
+*{{green|(Optional) What are these other threats?}}
+:Currently in Nova Praetoria we're dealing with the {{yellow|Destroyers}}, a group of psychopaths who, as you may guess, wish to spread destruction amongst our beautiful city.
+:They are our top priority on the surface of Praetoria, next to the Resistance. We, of course, always have the threat of {{yellow|Hamidon}} lurking outside of Nova, but our sonic barriers are keeping the beast at bay.
+:*{{green|Okay, what's next?}}
+::{{DialogueLoop}} ''(A)''
+:*{{green|(Optional) Wait, what's a Hamidon?}}
+::You don't know?
+::Hamidon is a monster of pure malice. It nearly destroyed the ''entire'' world during the {{yellow|Hamidon Wars}} in the 70s.
+::Emperor Cole is the only reason why we still exist today. He rallied the people of this land to fight the monsters of Hamidon and eventually faced off against the beast by himself.
+::Though Cole did not destroy Hamidon, he was able to push the monster back, allowing us the chance to rebuild civilization.
+::We're safe from Hamidon, for now, though it is a threat that still looms over us.
+::*{{green|Interesting. So what's next?}} ''(A)''
+::Exit through the door behind me and speak with {{yellow|Praetor White}}.
+::While I am in charge of Praetoria's military, he is the head of Powers Division. You'll be able to start you career in protecting Praetoria - or perhaps your rise to power - with him.
+::He is somewhat rough around the edges, but I fully trust him with the safety of our great city.
