Doc Quantum's Moral Quandary
You've been contacted by the notorious Doc Quantum, he presents you with a curious situation.
'Salutations, Character,
Please excuse my intrusion, I am sure you are very busy with... whatever... it is what you do. What I am interested in is why you do it. So, you're going to be a volunteer in an experiment of mine. I've arranged an interesting scenario for you. A notorious Rogue Isles' villain, Hollow Point, and his so-called militia have subdued, unmasked and neutralized the powers of a few of Paragon City's more patriotic heroes and have orders to execute them in 1 hour. However, I have just heard word that Hollow Point himself, ever the busy man, has set out on his next scheme to take over a local newspaper to publish anti-government propaganda. What will you do, Character?
Will you save those careless heroes who managed to get themselves captured, and let that insane terrorist Hollow Point go free?
Or will you stop the cause of all this, Hollow Point, and let those patriotic defenders of Paragon City die?
This should be an interesting experiment, thank you for your cooperation.'

 VIGILANTE |
Hero Acceptance
Briefing
You're not sure if Doc Quantum orchestrated this situation or if he just caught wind of it, but none of that matters. Those heroes need your help - their lives are in danger. You've heard of Hollow Point's brutality and you're very familiar with the brutality of his ex-Council allies. Hollow Point plans to make an example out of those patriotic heroes who support this country's government.
However, you know that saving these patriots will likely mean that Hollow Point will get away.
Mission Acceptance
You think you've made the right decision. Hollow Point will answer for his crimes at another time. You head off to the location given to you by Doc Quantum.

| One of the kidnapped heroes gives you the low-down in Hollow Point's militia. Evidently he has gathered members from like-minded organizations in an effort to overthrow the country's government. He has a tendency to target patriotic heroes. |
Debriefing
You rescued the Paragon City patriotic heroes and were confronted by Doc Quantum himself after rescuing them. He called you predictable and boring. You like to think of yourself as consistent.
Vigilante Acceptance
Briefing
There was a time when Hollow Point was like you. He sought to bring justice to the enemies of Paragon City at all costs. He crossed the line, however, and passed over the point of no return. Hollow point is currently raiding a local news station; with it, he could spout his hateful anti-government propaganda and draw more people to his militia.
Stop Hollow Point from raiding the television station
