Level 20-24
Have you ever read any of Jim Bell's articles in the paper? He's a great reporter who's been doing a lot of articles on the Tsoo and the Warriors. Jim has access to Training Enhancements.
Jim is outspoken and opinionated, but he is extremely well informed.
There's a wise old man named Dr. Cheng who knows just about everything there is to know about the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. He has access to Training Enhancements.
Dr. Cheng is very wise, Hero. Pay close attention to his words.
Claire Childress is as much a part of the spirit world as our own. Some say she's flighty, but there are few in Paragon City who can provide more aid to one who seeks to battle the Freakshow or the Family. Claire has access to Training Enhancements.
+++ Missing Information +++
I'd like you to meet Oswald Cuthbert. He's a probation officer and thus has a lot of contact with the sordid side of Paragon City. He often uses heroes like you to help him out with the Sky Raiders and the Council. Oswald can get you Training Enhancements.
Good choice, Character, and good hunting
Do you ever read Dennis Ewell's columns? He's quite a writer, and he told me he'd like your help taking out the Tsoo and the Warriors. Dennis has access to Training Enhancements.
Dennis isn't convinced that the heroes of Paragon City are much better than the villains, but he is coming around.
Wil Eziquerra is an excellent reporter who specialized in stories on the Sky Raiders and the Council. His sources usually keep him stocked up with Training Enhancements.
Wil is going to be a great resource for you, Character.
I think you should meet Andrew Fiore. Not only can he sell you quality electronics, but he's got information about lots of less savory business deals. He's helped more than a few heroes, especially with information about the Freakshow and the Family. Andrew has a lot of sources that give him access to Training Enhancements.
Andrew is a businessman first, but it's in his best interest to keep the heroes he works with up to date on information.
There's an amazing guy named Tyler French who runs a youth sports program; it keeps troubled teens off the streets. He hears a lot and likes to help heroes out, especially with the Tsoo and the Warriors. Tyler has access to Training Enhancements.
Tyler is really great for the kids, Character. Help him out however you can.
I think you should talk to Vic Garland. He's a civil rights activist who's doing some important work against the Freakshow. He's also more than a little curious about the Family. He could really use your help. Vic has access to Training Enhancements.
Vic is uncompromising and fiercely loyal.
I've been asked to introduce you to Lt. Gosford from the Paragon City Police Department. He runs a special unit that is focused on bringing down the Sky Raiders and the Council. Gosford's connections within the department give him access to Training Enhancements.
Gosford is used to working with heroes. You will get along fine.
My friend Justin Greene has asked to see you. He's a coordinator for his local community watch group. He used to be a hero, so he knows how to help you clean up groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. Justin has access to Training Enhancements.
I think Justin will like you a great deal, Character.
If you can gain his confidence, Oliver Haak is a rich source of information on the occult. Don't be put off by his demeanor, Character, I know that you will impress him. He can really help you out against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Oliver has access to Training Enhancements.
Your actions will speak for you with Oliver.
I'd like you to go see my friend Piper Irving. She's an anthropologist working here in the city. She knows a ton about the obscure beliefs of the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Piper knows where to get Training Enhancements.
I am sure you will find Piper quite knowledgeable.
Detective Rondel Jackson is a great guy to talk to if you want the police perspective on groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. He's also the one to talk to if you need Training Enhancements.

I have no doubt you will enjoy working with Professor Keller
Although he is a bit eccentric, Joseph Keller has a great deal of knowledge. He can greatly aid anyone who wishes to go up against the Banished Pantheon or the Circle of Thorns. Professor Keller has access to Training Enhancements.
There's a noted weapons expert named Jake Kim who's in town trying to stop the spread of illegal weaponry. He is focusing his efforts on the Freakshow and the Family. Jake has access to Training Enhancements.
Jake has a very specific agenda, but he can still help you clean up Paragon City.
The INS has a woman named Amanda Loomis who works well with heroes. She is trying to keep the Tsoo situation from turning any uglier than it already has, and she also has a deep interest in the Warriors. Amanda should be able to get you Training Enhancements.
Amanda likes to use metaphors, but she understands the realities of Paragon City all too well.
I've been asked to tell you that Lt. Colonel Hugh McDougal of the Pentagon's Hero Outreach Program would like to meet with you about the Freakshow and the Family. His military connections give him access to Training Enhancements.
This could provide excellent connections for you in the future, Character.
If you are looking for a partner to help you take down the Banished Pantheon, Andrea Mitchell would be a great choice. She is very dedicated and her connections are top notch. She also has a lot of interest in the Circle of Thorns. Andrea has access to Training Enhancements.
I have a good feeling about you and Andrea.
Have you ever heard of Wilma Peterson from the Department of Waste Management? She's one of the folks in charge of disposing of hazardous waste, like Rikti technology. You should stop by and see her sometime; she's got her eye on the Freakshow and the Family right now. Wilma has access to Training Enhancements.
Treat Wilma with respect and you will have a solid contact.
I know a rather interesting fellow named Hinckley Rasmussen. He works as a researcher for the Midnight Squad and takes an interest in helping heroes like you fight the Tsoo and the Warriors. Hinckley has access to Training Enhancements.
Cain Royce is strongly committed to his crusade against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. You would do well to have him as an ally. Cain can get you Training Enhancements.
Paragon City's evil-doers will soon feel the weight of this choice.

I think you should talk to John Strobel from the Citizen Defense Coalition. It's a group of ex-military and law enforcement officers that helps heroes like you from time to time. Right now their attention is focused on the Sky Raiders and the Council. John has a few sources that can get him Training Enhancements.
John is very patriotic and somewhat idealistic, but he's got a keen eye for trouble.
Level 25-29
Have you ever bought anything from Lorenzo Tate, the arms dealer? He can help you against the Devouring Earth and the Rikti. He has Training Enhancements.
Lorenzo is a character, but he gets the job done.
Eliza Thorpe from the Missing Persons Bureau has asked to see you. She could really use your help with the Devouring Earth and the Rikti. She needs to know what part they may be playing in the disappearance of Paragon City citizens. She has access to Training Enhancements.
Eliza will work very hard to help you. She is extremely dedicated to returning Paragon City to the hands of the people who live here.
Information
Dream Analyst
Melanie Peebles is an ultra-lucid dreamer. She not only controls her dreams, she can actually enter the dream world at will to seek out information. For years she lived in a dream state and had very little interaction with other people. Then, during the Rikti War, she was disturbed by recurring dreams of the alien invaders. This gave her the impetus to start using her abilities to help the city fight back. Ever since, she has helped heroes by providing them information from her dreams. She has become quite adept at using her abilities and has even begun to get some recognition in the press, something she's less than pleased about.
Prior to Introduction
I'm sorry, I can't talk to you. I believe your destiny is linked to Active Contact.
Initial Contact
I dreamed I would meet you some day, Character. And look, here you are.
Greeting
- Let us turn nightmares into dreams.
- Can you prevent my latest dream from coming to fruition?
- My dreams grow darker, Character. Help me brighten them.

Assist the Security Chief in Independence Port
Briefing
Time to take a bite out of crime. The Security Chief in Indy Port wants some help with those scumbags from the Family. Go lend him a hand.

- Assist the Security Chief
.jpg){kind=small}
Briefing
Here's some information on the area. We've been having a lot of trouble with the Family, especially in Crey Cove and Bell Point. I really need you to lend a hand.
 |
Independence Port briefing |
| This is where many brave heroes defended the city against an invading space armada back in the 50's. Paragon City renamed the area Independence Port, in honor of the heroes who died in that epic battle. You'll see the big statue of Cassiopeia by the bridge; she was one of the famous heroes who died in that fight. It's a shame that organized crime runs the docks nowadays. The Family pulls all the strings here, despite the best efforts of law enforcement. |
Keep peace in Independence Port

Nice job helping clean up a historic zone!
Assist the Talos Island Security Chief
Briefing
The conflict between the Warriors and the Tsoo for dominance over Talos Island is endangering innocents. The Security Chief over there wants your help.
Mission Acceptance
Both those bands of thugs need a lesson.
Assist Security Chief

Mission Objective(s)
- Assist Security Chief
.jpg){kind=small}
Briefing
I need you to confront the Tsoo and the Warriors. Here are some basics about the area. If I were you, I'd look for the Tsoo in Helen Point or New Sparta. New Thebes and New Troy are typical Warrior hangouts.
|
Talos Island briefing |
| During the 1950's, the titanic hero Talos fought to save the city from a horrid beast called the Chimera. Talos wrestled the protean creature into the deepest waters of the bay, and their struggles somehow set off a volcano in the waters. Talos was killed, and the island created by the lava flow was named after him. Recently, a couple of gangs have been squaring off for Talos Island turf: the Warriors and the Tsoo. The Warriors have a fixation with gladiators; they carry swords and are often superb soldiers. The Tsoo seem to be a gang with some magical might behind them. |
Discourage gang war
Unnecessary Solicitation
+++ Missing Information +++
Mission Objective(s)
- Discourage gang war
- Defeat 10 Tsoo and 10 Warriors
+++ Missing Information +++
Debriefing
That should quiet things down for a bit. Talos Island is in for a long war, I'm afraid.
Curtail the Sky Raider thefts in Terra Volta
Briefing
The Sky Raiders have been conducting a lot of operations in Terra Volta. Security in that zone has had their hands full with the Freakshow and the Devouring Earth, they haven't been able to do anything about the Sky Raider attacks except catalog what's being stolen. I need you to curtail the Sky Raider thefts in Terra Volta. Can you do it?
There have been a lot of thefts around the Raysun Petroleum Refinery and the Coroman Manufacturing Complex.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Sky Raiders in Terra Volta
- Defeat 20 Sky Raiders
Debriefing
Great job in Terra Volta. I think you showed the Sky Raiders that Paragon City won't stand for their wanton thefts.
Deliver package to Stephanie Peebles
Briefing
Have you ever been over to Striga Isle, Character? There's a woman there named Stephanie Peebles who needs our help. She's got all she can do trying to hold Port Noble together against the onslaught of the Council. Will you take this package over to Stephanie? I'd appreciate it if you didn't look inside. Oh, you might want to take some friends. It can get pretty dicey over there.
Mission Acceptance
The Council has managed to entrench itself on Striga Isle but good. If you can give Stephanie any assistance against them, I'm sure she'll be grateful. Of course, I hope you won't forget about your old friends here in Paragon City. We'll always be grateful for your help, too.
Here's the package. It's for Stephanie's eyes only.
|
Mysterious package |
| This package, intended for Stephanie Peebles, has a strange scent. Try as you might, you can't quite place it. |
Unnecessary Solicitation
Stephanie's waiting for that package.
Mission Objective(s)
- Go see Stephanie Peebles
Debriefing
Thanks for the package, Character; I'm grateful. So, what do you think of Port Noble? Doesn't look like much, maybe? Well, it's my home. I've been doing what I can to kick those Council goons out, but I need more help. I'd appreciate it if you could stick around.
Otherwise, you can keep following leads from your other contacts. I'll always be here, and I'll always be grateful for assistance.
|
Editor's Note: There is no debriefing from your original contact for this mission and no experience is given for it. Additionally, the mission will drop off your mission list automatically and you are not required to return to your contact to remove it. This is because it is intended to be an introduction to the contact Stephanie Peebles, and the Striga Isle arcs by extension. |
Get the records
Briefing
The secretive Lost have been scavenging Rikti technology and selling it to the highest bidder. The government has declared all sales of Rikti tech illegal, but that's not enough to deter the more ruthless corporations from buying it. Bringing the buyers to justice has been all but impossible, since the Lost work hard to maintain the secrecy of the deals. But I've got a tip on a hideout where the Lost are keeping some records. I just need a brave hero to go in and get them.
Those records could really help us stop the trade in illegal Rikti Technology
The long shadows give this old warehouse a spooky feeling.
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat Lost leader and his crew
- 5 files to collect
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- None
|
Evidence |
| The files contain information on the Lost's sales of scavenged Rikti technology. Several of the Lost's buyers are listed by name. |
Debriefing
You handled that one well. I'll make sure that all of the evidence gets to the right people. The Rikti nearly destroyed the world, and even the technology they left behind has all kinds of dangerous traps built into it. Greedy people will do anything to get ahead, though, even if it means risking their lives and those of their customers. As long as there are heroes like you to stop them, they're going ot have a tough time of it.
Help fight the Lost
Briefing
The engineering staff in Terra Volta have spotted members of the Lost skulking around the reactor complex. Terra Volta is under near-constant attack as it is, and the last thing that they need is to have the Lost planning something there as well. The Terra Volta staff have asked for a hero to help fight the Lost.
Lost have been spotted in the Gordon Trench sector and the Raysun Petroleum Refinery.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Lost in Terra Volta
- Defeat 20 Lost
Debriefing
You did well against the Lost. We may not know what they're up to, but at least they know that heroes like you will be ready to stop them.
Keep the Lost out of Terra Volta
Briefing
The Lost have been appearing in Terra Volta with greater frequency, and it's starting to push the situation there over the edge. The last thing that Terra Volta needs is another group of attackers in the siege against it. The city needs Terra Volta, and Terra Volta needs the protection of the city's heroes. Can you keep the Lost out of Terra Volta?
You're an inspiration to the city. You might want to concentrate your efforts on the Challenger Technology Complex and the Raysun Petroleum Refinery; a lot of the Lost have been spotted in those areas.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Lost in Terra Volta
- Defeat 20 Lost
Debriefing
Without the constant effort of heroes like you, Terra Volta would have fallen months ago. And with it would have gone the force fields that help keep our city zones safe. Paragon City owes you its thanks.
Recover the stolen weapons
Briefing
Last week the Sky Raiders hijacked a police transport carrying confiscated weapons. I just got a lead on the base where they're storing their ill-gotten gain. I need you to recover those weapons, Character. Be careful; this base is under the leadership of Officer Slizewski. I hear he's a tough customer.
Mission Acceptance
This could be a good chance to get information on the Sky Raiders and their operations.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I don't see any stolen weapons around here, do you?
Mission Objective(s)
You know that Lt. Judge won't give up the weapons without a fight.
- Stop Lt. Judge, his squad
- Find the stolen weapons
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Lt. Judge (Lieutenant)
- Officer Nader
|
Stolen weapons |
| The serial numbers on these weapons identify them as the ones stolen from the Paragon City Police Department. |
|
Sky Raiders' tactical plans |
| These concise plans for an upcoming operation detail a number of tactics the Sky Raiders plan to use. All these techniques are described with military precision. |
|
Portable hard drive |
| This small device contains information compiled by Lt. Judge on potential recruits. The potentials include several mercenaries, a few agents from other villain groups, and some military personnel. |
Debriefing
I've heard that the Sky Raiders frequently hire themselves out as mercenaries, that's probably why they stole those weapons from the police. It's a good thing you're around to put a crimp in their operations!
Save the lab from the Sky Raiders
Briefing
I've gotten an urgent message from a contact of mine, Paula DeSotto. She works in a military laboratory that's been trying to get a trace on some of the Sky Raiders' stolen goods. They recently picked up a signal from some beacons placed on some high end military weaponry. But before she could call in her superiors, the Sky Raiders traced the signal back and attacked! I need you to get over there and save that lab from the Sky Raiders!
They've got a lot of important equipment in that lab. If you can't get the hostages out and protect their equipment, I'm afraid this mission will be a failure.
You need to save the scientist and their equipment. It's critical to the fight against the Sky Raiders.
A scream echoes down the metal corridor
Mission Objective(s)
- Stop Sky Raider attack
- 3 people to save, Protect the equipment
Enemies
Sky Raiders
We've got to take out the equipment!
You won't stop us!
Notable NPCs
- Scientist x2 (NPC Hostage)
We should have known the Sky Raiders were onto us!
This lab is too valuable to lose!
- Paula DeSotto (NPC Hostage)
I knew someone would come!
- Tracking Equipment (Object)
Debriefing
I'm proud to be working with you. Not only did you save a friend of mine, but you saved a valuable military effort as well. As long as we can keep tracking the Sky Raiders' stolen equipment, we can put a stop to their mercenary activities. I have no doubt you'll be of great use in that regard.
See Dark Astoria Security Chief
Briefing
I need you to report to the Security Chief for Dark Astoria and help fight the Banished Pantheon. He didn't give me any details, but he sounded swamped.
Dark Astoria can get under your skin if you let it. Just focus on the job at hand.
Mission Objective(s)
- Assist the Dark Astoria Security Chief
.jpg){kind=small}
Briefing
The Pantheon is causing a lot of trouble around here, especially in Romero Heights and Raimi Arcade. Take this briefing and get out there.
|
Dark Astoria briefing |
| The maps say 'Astoria', but this place has always been 'Dark Astoria' to the people of Paragon City. The cemetery up there dates back to the prehistoric era, and there's sort of a spooky quality to it. Of course, very few people go in there anymore—not since the dead started crawling out of the ground! We're pretty sure it's the Banished Pantheon behind it all. They've got the magic to do it. You get rid of a few zombies, more come back. Even worse, there's a giant zombie in there. That's why the authorities have abandoned the place. Heroes should go in there only in small teams. |
Mission Objective(s)
- Keep the peace in Dark Astoria
- Defeat 20 Banished Pantheon
+++ Missing Information +++
Enemies
Debriefing
You seem to have come through that all right. You have nerves of steel.
See Siren's Call Liaison
Briefing
I don't know if you realized this, but as we speak, Paragon City is under assault. Over in Siren's Call, Lord Recluse and his men are making every effort to get themselves a foothold. If we let them manage it, we'll be in serious trouble. I'd appreciate it if you'd go speak with the Longbow Warzone Liaison over in Steel Canyon. She could use the help of heroes like you.
Siren's Call is a PVP zone, where you may be killed by other players.
Mission Acceptance
The Warzone Liaison can help you get the right contacts in Siren's Call.
Unnecessary Solicitation
The Warzone Liaison wants to speak to you about Siren's Call.
Mission Objective(s)
- Talk to Warzone Liaison
Debriefing
If you're ready to take on a real challenge, you can be a big help to Longbow here in Siren's Call. We have to push Arachnos out. If you're willling, you can talk to Agent Brinson. He's got a number of missions that will swing the battle in Longbow's favor. Or you can talk to the Security Chief at the Longbow Base; he can tell you all about bounties.
Siren's Call is a PVP zone. If you enter, you may be killed by other players. Do not enter if you are not willing to risk this.
Debriefing
I hope the Warzone Liaison gave you the info you need to help out in Siren's Call. It would be a shame to lose that zone to Arachnos.
Stop the Sky Raiders from tampering with the teleportation grid
Briefing
I just heard the Sky Raiders are planning an attack on a Crey research lab. The facility is working on new energy field stabilizers for Portal Corporation, and I think I know why the Sky Raiders are interested. It seems that one of these field generators could be used to override the teleportation grid the city uses to rescue endangered heroes. You've got to stop the Sky Raiders from tampering with the teleportation grid. You only have 75 minutes to stop the Sky Raiders.
If you can deactivate all the field stabilizers, the Sky Raiders won't be able to interfere with the teleportation grid.
There is no sign of forced entry, but a shouted order tells you the Sky Raiders are here.
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat all Sky Raiders in lab (Timed, 75 minutes)
- 3 field stabilizers to shut down
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Jump Bot Incinerator (Boss)
Debriefing
You really performed under pressure. I don't want to think about what would have happened if the Sky Raiders had managed to access the teleportation grid. Instead of the hospital, injured heroes might have found themselves in a Sky Raider brig!
Test the Genetic Restabilizer on the Lost
Briefing
SERAPH came up with some gizmo they want you to test on the Lost. It's called a Genetic Restabilizer, and it should affect the Lost's destabilized gene structure. What do you say? Ready to take on the Lost in the name of science?
I'll never give up hope that we may someday be able to help the Lost.
Temporary Power
The hero will receive the Genetic Restabilizer temporary power.
|
Genetic Restabilizer Ranged, Foe Hold This device can stop mutations and even begin a reversal of the process in certain cases. The effect, however, can temporarily render a victim helpless and unable to defend himself. The Genetic Restabilizer has 12 charges. |
Mission Objective(s)
Here's the Genetic Restabilizer. Be careful out there.
- Try Genetic Restabilizer on Lost
- Defeat 20 Lost
Debriefing
Thanks for this data. Maybe now SERAPH will be able to figure out what has happened to make the Lost change so drastically.
