To Something Greater

Souvenir

A View of Planet Earth

In between your adventures, you sometimes remember the view you had of planet earth while on Darrin Wade's floating island. The planet as a whole looked beautiful and also small, in a way. The planet was in the background as you fought for its survival against a Darrin Wade in the last moments of an adventure you call...

To Something Greater

Where did this whole journey really begin? Was it with the first move by Darrin Wade to give the Lost an obelisk that would steal Synapse's powers? Or were these events that were set in motions thousands of years ago, back during the time of Cimerora? Wherever it started, you were the one who was destined to end it. Darrin Wade had gained the power of Statesman and Sister Psyche. He sought to summon Rularuu into this world and become one with the monster. You ended up working together with Arachnos to track Wade down. You travelled the globe and dimensions, going to the Shadow Shard to speak with Faathim the Kind, to the pacific ocean for your first encounter against Wade's floating island, and then Warburg, to retake it from Malta in order to destroy the shield around Wade's island.

You faced off against the transformed Darrin Wade in space, the fate of the world hanging in the balance. You defeated Wade, his mind being sent back to the husk that now is his body. You think back to how the world nearly came to the brink of destruction and the information that you gathered all this time, along with the help of Lady Grey...

It all began with Alastor, who had created a group of obelisks thousands of years ago to take power away from the gods and put it into the hands of the people. Sister Airlia played her part in Cimerora, where she wished to gain control over the country by having Imperious and Romulus destroyed. Centuries passed, leading to the present day. Darrin Wade, born a normal but extremely intelligent man, saw that no matter what he did, he could never be greater than the simplest of heroes. His life would always be dependent on those whom he believed were less than him. Jean-Pierre Lourdin, known as Malaise, was a twisted man who Sister Psyche was trying to heal. He desired to be free from Psyche, to have control over himself.

All of these people wanted to gain power and control to gain their own freedom. They were willing to do whatever it takes to do this, even if it meant killing whoever they needed to satisfy their dreams. Yet, in the end, all of them failed. Alastor's obelisks were either destroyed or never used by him, Sister Airlia, it can be presumed, never came to power, as the story of Cimerora was lost to the ages. Malaise was destroyed in Sister Psyche's mind, his actions bound to his desire for vengeance. Darrin Wade's mind is nearly mush now, trapped inside of his body. His freedom to move, to act, is gone, save for the most basic of actions.

The world is safe, but perhaps you wonder, what is the true idea of freedom that all these people wanted? Freedom must mean more than having the power to do whatever you wish. You think back to Statesman, who, in his final moments, was smiling. Could it be that in that moment, Darrin Wade, who had all the power, all the control, was the one who was a slave to his circumstances, while Statesman, in his final moments, was finally free from it all?

Part One: Unlikely Allies

Briefing

Character. We don't have a lot of time to talk. I'm sure you're fully aware of the situation we're all in. Darrin Wade is attempting, as we speak, to summon Rularuu into this world. He has Statesman and Sister Psyche's powers at his disposal and is almost impossible to beat.

Wade's whole plan has left the Freedom Phalanx and Vindicators a wreck, so they're both out of the picture. Vanguard is dealing with reports of Rularuu monsters appearing all over the world, except for Paragon and the Isles. Seems like Wade is doing his best to keep everyone as spread out as possible.

That leaves you and a select few who may have the capabilities of actually stopping Darrin Wade before his plans come to fruition. As always, Vanguard is ready to do whatever it takes to face off against inter-dimensional threats. I have a few ideas of how we can handle this. Are you ready to take the fight to Darrin Wade and end this once and for all?

This arc contains elite bosses, which may be difficult to defeat by yourself.

• Agree to form a task force

Alright, so we need to determine where Darrin Wade is and stop him from pulling off whatever he's planning, right? I've talked with the wizards in Vanguard and Dark Watcher, and we've come up with a plan.

Darrin Wade used an incredible amount of magic to kill off Statesman. Dark Watcher believes that if we investigate the scene where Statesman died, we could try to pick up Darrin Wade's magical signature and pick up his trail from there.

It's not much, really, but it's something. We could always just sit back and wait for him to destroy the world, but I think we both agree it's a little better to be pro-active, eh? We'll have a helicopter bring you over to the site whenever you're ready.

Unnecessary Solicitation

We don't have time to waste, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

The Vanguard helicopter was forced to drop you off at the caverns at the base of the temple due to a high number of Arachnos flyers patrolling the area.
Recluse and his army must have thought of a similar idea that Dark Watcher had.

• Investigate the Cimeroran Temple
  • Get to the top of the Cimeroran temple
  • Defeat Ghost Widow
  • Speak with Scirocco

You've agreed to have Arachnos work together with you and discovered that Darrin Wade went into the Shadow Shard!

Enemies

Arachnos

Notable NPCs

• Ghost Widow (Arachnos Archvillain, Enemy)
• Scirocco (Arachnos Archvillain, Neutral)

Scirocco

Debriefing

Arachnos was there?!

...

...

Well, I guess we can use all the help we can get, Character. If what Scirocco said is true, we know where we have to go next, although I'm a little worried that this could lead to a trap.

Part Two: Into the beast

Briefing

I've talked with Dark Watcher and Lady Grey about what Scirocco told you. They both agreed that this is the only lead we have, so we might as well take it.

We've adjusted one of our portals to send you inside the Shadow Shard. We couldn't get you directly inside the Chantry, due to the various power fluctuations in the area. You'll be what I call annoyingly close and problematically far away from the Chantry.

• ... Great

Sorry, Character, it's the best we can do. One thing I don't understand, however, is why Wade would go visit Faathim. From what I understand, Faathim the Kind is the protector of those within the Shadow Shard; he isn't anything like Rularuu. Why would someone like Darrin Wade go to a being like Faathim?

Unnecessary Solicitation

Watch out in the Shard, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

Vanguard's portal sets you down on one of the islands in the Shadow Shard.
You'll need to find Scirocco to get information on the situation here in the Shadow Shard.

• Get Information from Faathim the Kind
  • Find Scirocco
  • Defeat Ruladak gain access to the Chantry
  • Speak with Faathim the Kind regarding Darrin Wade

You've found out where Darrin Wade's main location is!

Enemies

Soldiers of Rularuu

Notable NPCs

• Faathim the Kind (Soldiers of Rularuu Arch-villain, Neutral)
• Revived Ruladak (Soldiers of Rularuu Arch-villain, Enemy)
• Scirocco (Arachnos Patron, Ally)

Faathim Imprisoned

Scirocco explained to you that Darrin Wade entered the Shadow Shard to help speed the process of Ruladak's reformation and also to seal Faathim the Kind inside of the Chantry. Ruladak now guards the Chantry while his power begins to flow back to him. Ruladak seems to be drawing power from the monsters of Rularuu around him. As long as there are creatures belonging to Rularuu near him, he will have the chance to increase his powers. Faathim the Kind should be able to shed some knowledge about the location of Darrin Wade, if you're able to free him from his prison within the Chantry.

Faathim the Kind

Debriefing

Good to see you're back, Character, things are getting worse by the hour. We've gotten word that Sydney is overrun with Rularuu monsters, while London is doing their best to fend them off. We've also gotten reports of strange activity in Warburg, but it's not the Rogue Arachnos.

Heroes from Paragon are being dispatched to the worse areas of the world, along with Vanguard, but we can't be everywhere at once.

You found where Darrin Wade is right now? That's great! We'll get a fleet of ships to go there at once.

Faathim the Kind warned you that Wade won't succeed? Well, of course. People like Wade never win, but I suppose he's hedging his bets that he'll be able to keep control over Rularuu even once everything is complete.

Part Three: Coming Together

Briefing

We're all set to bring this thing to an end, Character. Vanguard has talked with a US Naval Fleet that's in the area near Wade's island.

We're planning an all out assault on the area. The first fleet has gone forward to begin the attack on the island, but they've reported information that's going to make this a little harder than we thought.

• What information is that?

There's some sort of intense power fluctuations within the area, which makes flying a no-go. Anything in the air would get tossed about like a ragdoll by the huge forces that are in the air.

The only way to get to Wade's island is by a boat.

We're going to have Vanguard airlift you over to one of the farthest vessels and take you from there. Oh, I should also mention that you're not going alone.

Lord Recluse, Captain Mako, Penelope Yin, Numina, Ms. Liberty, and Gaussian will be going there with you. Gaussian will be in charge of maintaining the ship. Recluse insisted on going along to finish off Wade himself, so you may run into some issues there. I'd keep my eye on Captain Mako; he'll have a huge advantage being in the ocean.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Good luck, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

You stepped off the Vanguard helicopter and into the ship. After spending a few hours wandering around, you return to the main area of the deck, waiting for information about Wade's island.

• Assault Darrin Wade's Island
  • Speak with anyone on board (optional)
  • Contact the ship captain via the computer for an update
  • Get topside to see the disturbance
  • Ascend to the USS Barry
  • Retrieve the USS Barry's computer data
  • Return to the USS Ross
  • Fend off incoming Rularuu until Lady Grey can teleport the group to safety

You found Darrin Wade's island and discovered that only an attack from some immense amount of force will be able to destroy the forcefield that protects it.

Enemies

Soldiers of Rularuu

Notable NPCs'

• Captain Mako (Arachnos Archvillain, Ally)
• Gaussian (Ally)
• Ms. Liberty (Vindicators Hero, Ally)
• Numina (Freedom Phalanx, Ally)
• Penelope Yin (Independent Hero, Ally)
• Lord Recluse (Arachnos Archvillain, Ally)

Computer

The Fate of the USS Barry

You looked through the Barry's computer system and found data regarding its final moments. The Barry was the first to spot Wade's floating island and ordered everyone in the fleet to open fire. They reported that nothing in their arsenal was able to destroy the shield surrounding the island, noting that it would take a large amount of high-powered missiles to begin to break through the shield. Afterwards, energy signatures spiked in the area as other ships in the fleet were lifted out of the water as if they were toys. Members of the crew began to instantly evaporate until there was no one left in any of the ships.

Editor's Note: Upon returning to the USS Ross, the "Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension" phase begins. Event box reads as follows: Survive Darrin Wade's Apocalypse Beam! Penelope Yin's psychic barrier will protect you! Next Apocalypse Beam In: 0:30

Debriefing

This is worse than we imagined, Character. Darrin Wade was able to take out an entire fleet with the power he has on that, well, now floating island. Penelope Yin and Numina are currently recovering from trying to block Darrin Wade's attacks on the ship.

From what we can tell, Wade's island is starting to ascend higher into space. He must be planning on using it as the stage to summon Rularuu into this world! But we just have one problem... how are we going to get past that shield? We'd need an entire city's worth of fire power to...

Wait! I know!

Part Four: Warburg's Highest Purpose

Briefing

Character, it might be a stretch, but it's our only option left. We need to break down the barrier that's between us and Darrin Wade's island so we can get you and everyone else in there to stop him once and for all, right? According to the Barry's logs, they sent everything they had at the shields and barely dented them.

Well, what about Warburg? That place is armed to the teeth with more missiles than any one place in the world. If we wait for Wade's island to get into space, as the current trajectory is showing, then we can launch everything in Warburg to destroy the shield. Maybe we'll get lucky and it'll destroy Wade as well, but if not, well, then we have you that can deal with him.

• What's the status of Warburg?

That's the bad part. Lord Recluse sent Black Scorpion to Warburg to check the situation. That's sort of where I got the idea from. We just received word that several of Black Scorpion's men were wiped out by Malta Operatives.

It looks like in the mess that was the world being attacked, Malta made a bid to take over Warburg. They're preparing for their own war in there, Character. Black Scorpion reported seeing nearly a dozen tanks being armed with their sapper technology. If we're going to use Warburg to take down Darrin Wade, you'll need to go in there with Black Scorpion and kick Malta out of there!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Recluse claims Black Scorpion won't betray you while you're in there. Let's hope he's right.

Mission Objective(s)

You arrive in Warburg to see Black Scorpion ready to fight. This may be a good thing, or a bad thing.

• Retake Warburg from Malta
  • 12 tanks to destroy
  • Defeat Fire Blue 2-1-9
  • Defeat Desert Black 5-1-2

You've retaken Warburg!

Enemies

Malta Operatives

Notable NPCs

• Desert Black 5-1-2 (Malta Operatives Gunslinger)
• Defeat Fire Blue 2-1-9 (Malta Operatives Gunslinger)
• Black Scorpion (Arachnos Patron, Ally)

Debriefing

Vanguard is already prepping every single missile in Warburg as we speak, Character. A lot is riding on this.

We have reports that Wade's island has broken through the Earth's atmosphere and is now hovering over the planet. Dark Watcher and Gaussian are reporting major spikes in energy around the area. We think that Wade is already beginning his ritual to bring Rularuu into the world and merge with him!

Finale: Unstoppable Force

Briefing

Everything is nearly set for you, Character. We just launched the entire arsenal of Warburg rockets at Darrin Wade's island. We expect that some of them will be destroyed by Wade, but we're confident that enough will hit the shield to destroy it.

Vanguard has a rocket prepared for you deep within the base to launch you out there to face off against Wade once and for all. There's... just something you should be aware of.

• What is that?

We believe that Wade has already begun to merge with Rularuu. He is no longer Darrin Wade. He's a sort of cross between Wade and Rularuu. We've given him the code name 'Rula-Wade'.

Also, Lord Recluse has insisted that he and his four patrons accompany you to face off against Wade, and Lady Grey wants to debrief you before you go up. If you have a problem with Recluse going with you, I would bring it up with Lady Grey.

Speak to Lady Grey

Unnecessary Solicitation

Time is of the essence, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

• Speak to Lady Grey

The Lady Grey

Briefing

Character. I will be providing you magical protection which will allow you to breathe in space, if you do not already have the ability to do so.

We've just received word that the missiles have all hit Wade's island and have destroyed his shielding.

At this point, all that is left is to face off against Rula-Wade. I need to warn you, Character, that this may be an incredibly difficult fight. Recluse and his four patrons will be going with you, and we will be sending Penelope Yin up to give you support. Are you prepared to face off against Rula-Wade?

• I am, let's finish this

Excellent. The entire eyes of the world are you on, Character. Good luck.

• Tell Lord Recluse that he won't be coming with me.

Are you sure, Character? Lord Recluse and his patrons aren't exactly the most trustworthy of allies, but they are allies nonetheless. It will be incredibly difficult to face off against Rula-Wade without their help.

The finale mission will be much more challenging if you do not have the aid of Lord Recluse and his four patrons, especially if you are not on a team.

• I'm sure I don't need their help

Very well. We'll just have to delay them while we get you into space.

	Refused help from Arachnos
	You told Lady Grey that you wouldn't need the help of Lord Recluse and his patrons to face off against Rula-Wade.

• Excellent.

• On second thought, I'll take them. Let's finish this.

Excellent. The entire eyes of the world are you on, Character. Good luck.

• (Leave)

Defeat Rula-Wade, once and for all

Unnecessary Solicitation

Good luck, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

Vanguard's rocket flies over the island, dropping you down to face off against Darrin Wade's new form.

• Defeat Rula-Wade, once and for all
  • Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension
  • Clear out the Rularuu soldiers from the area!
  • Destroy the artifacts of Rularuu!

You've stopped Rula-Wade and saved all of existence from Rularuu!

Enemies

Soldiers of Rularuu

Notable NPCs

• Black Scorpion (Arachnos Patron, Ally)
• Captain Mako (Arachnos Patron, Ally)
• Ghost Widow (Arachnos Patron, Ally)
• Lord Recluse (Arachnos Archvillain, Ally)
• Penelope Yin (Independent Hero, Ally)
• Rula-Wade (Soldiers of Rularuu Archvillain, Enemy)
• Scirocco (Arachnos Patron, Ally)

Editor's Note: The "Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension" event box reads as follows: Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension Clear out the Rularuu soldiers from the area!

Rula-Wade: Character. I had a feeling you were behind the rockets that attacked the island. Rula-Wade: As we speak, I'm becoming one with Rularuu. I am ascending, becoming MORE than a man, even more than a god! Rula-Wade: They told me my desire for greatness could never be satisfied, that my nature was to be a mere human... Rula-Wade: But I have defied them, defied nature, defied all that would hold me down! Rula-Wade: This world, this universe... now belongs to ME! And it has NO place for the likes of YOU!

Editor's Note: The "Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension" event box reads as follows: Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension Destroy the artifacts of Rularuu! Penelope Yin's psychic barrier will protect you! RulaWade's Next Blast In: 0:30

Editor's Note: The "Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension" event box reads as follows: Stop Darrin Wade's Ascension Defeat Rula-Wade once and for all! Rula-Wade can strengthen himself with other Rularuu around him!

Rula-Wade: NO! The power... falling away! This isn't happening! WHY?! Rula-Wade: Was it so wrong to want freedom?! To want KNOWLEDGE?! Rula-Wade: All I ever wanted... was to just know the world... know the universe... to be... free...!

Debriefing

Every person in the world just let out a huge sigh of relief, Character. The monsters of Rularuu are starting to vanish all over the world. With Wade defeated, Rularuu was flung back into the depths of the Shadow Shard.

Vanguard recovered what remains of Darrin Wade. He was violently flung back into his body after you defeated his ascended form. He no longer has the powers of Statesman and Sister Psyche, though to be honest, we're not entirely sure how that happened.

The world is saved and Wade's plot is at an end. However, there's still one last thing we need from you.

Epilogue

Briefing

Like I said, the entire world wants to know what happened with Darrin Wade. And, Character, with everything that has gone down this entire time, they want to hear it straight from you.

• What are you trying to say?

The press has gathered in one of our conference rooms and want to get your comments on everything that has happened along the way.

If you don't want to participate, you can feel free to just go up there, say a few words, and then leave. However, this is your chance for the spotlight, if you want. You've just saved the world from Rula-Wade. Maybe you want to clear things up, or maybe you want to do, I don't know, something else.

We'll have some Vanguard officials there providing security for you.

Unnecessary Solicitation

They're all waiting for you, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

You can hear the reporters up ahead talking to each other. The room seems packed with them, all waiting to ask you questions about what has happened.

• Attend the Press Conference
  • Leave the building
  • Deal with the Vanguard blocking the exit out (if conference is attacked)
  • Defeat Manticore (if no questions taken)

The press conference is over, and the saga with Darrin Wade has come to an end.

Enemies

Vanguard Shield
Freedom Phalanx

Editor's Note: The press will only ask questions relevant to the chapters of Who Will Die that your character has completed. The questions/answers about each chapter can be mixed hero or villain, depending on what alignment you were when you completed them.

Podium

Briefing

You step up to the podium and look over the numerous reporters who are present. All of them want to know the truth behind everything you've done with Darrin Wade and the Freedom Phalanx.

• I'll be taking your questions now.

Hero

 

Tell us about your involvement with Synapse and Darrin Wade's obelisk! Synapse said you were the one who saved his life. How much involvement did you have in this?

• Synapse did his best under the situation, but I was happy to help him. Next question.
• The obelisk was a clear trap, and shows how the Phalanx was losing their edge. Next questions.
• This was all part of Wade's plan, luckily Synapse got away safely. Next question.

You are known for helping to save Numina's father from the cult called the Rulu-Shin. What can you tell us about your experience and the role the Midnighters played?

• The Midnighters were a great help, I couldn't have done it without them.
• The Midnighters were weakened, so I stepped up to give them a hand during this time.
• The Midnighters are a shell of their former selves. They would've been destroyed, if not for me.

Regarding the scenario with Alexis Cole-Duncan's death. We understand you did your best in the situation. There has been much blame pinned on Manticore for trying to keep this a secret. Can you give us a comment regarding Manticore's actions during this crisis?

• Manticore was doing what he thought was right, That's all you can ask.
• Manticore's actions were questionable, but I was there to help.
• This is a sign that Manticore's time is about up. He's losing his edge.

Can you give us more information about the fate of Malaise in Sister Psyche's mind? We understand that he was killed trying to split Psyche's personality apart.

• Malaise was insane, but I believe he could have been saved, like he was once before.
• Sister Psyche did what she had to do. Malaise went out of control.
• Malaise was a major player in all of this. He deserved a worse fate.

Statesman's death. Everyone's talking about it. We know that you were present for his death and that you supposedly fought Darrin Wade. Can you clarify what exactly happened there?

• I was undercover and about to attack Wade, but I was too late to save Statesman.
• I attacked Wade, but I was too late to save Statesman's life.
• I tried to put down Wade after he gained Statesman's powers, but he fled.

Sister Psyche's death was a tragedy, there is no question about that.

What is your judgment regarding Manticore's actions? Was he right in killing his own wife?

• Manticore was forced to make a horrible decision to save Paragon.
• Manticore was in a difficult state. He was nervous and made the wrong decision.
• It's time for him to resign and let the true heroes take his place.

Why did you save the world from Rula-Wade? What motivated you to do all of this?

• The world needed to be saved. Someone had to step up.
• Darrin Wade had to pay for his crimes, no matter what.
• What's better press than saving the world from a omnipotent being?
• The world will be mine one day. I need it here in one piece.

You nod to the remaining reporters as the press conference is finished.

Villain

Tell us about your involvement with Synapse and Darrin Wade's obelisk.

Why did you take Synapse's power, and were you planning on killing him?

• I was merely testing the limits of the obelisk. Nothing more. Next question
• I was infiltrating Wade's plan and had to play the part. Next question
• If I had not done that, Synapse would have died. Next question

Why did you steal the skull of Numina's father? Were you working together with the Rulu-Shin at the time, or did you have alternate motives?

• I was using her father to get to the Rulu-Shin and stop them. Next question
• The Rulu-Shin were a means to an end to find Wade's plans. Next question
• Desperate times call for desperate measures, I did what I had to do. Next question

The public has debated about whether or not you or Darrin Wade were responsible for the death of Alexis Cole-Duncan.

Can you answer once and for all who killed Alexis Cole-Duncan?

• I killed her. Next question.
• Darrin Wade was responsible for her death.
• No comment. Next question.

We were told by Aurora Borealis that you played a very heavy role in the attack on Sister Psyche's mind.

What was your goal in doing this?

• Psyche wrongly trapped another woman in there. I was simply trying to free her.
• I was trying to cut her off before something horrible happened.
• I was simply trying to save Malaise before Psyche viciously killed him.

Statesman's death. We all know that you were present, that you did your best to fight Darrin Wade.

Who can the world turn to, now that Statesman is dead?

• Statesman will live on in all of the heroes of Paragon. We are who they can turn to.
• Statesman hasn't been a factor for a while. The heroes of Paragon will protect the people.
• The people can turn to me. I will be there, no matter what, to protect them.

Is it true that Sister Psyche saved the portion of Aurora Borealis that was trapped in her mind moments before her death? Were you there trying to save Aurora, or Psyche?

• I was there to save Sister Psyche, but I was too late, given Manticore's foolish actions.
• I was there for Aurora, but Psyche's sacrifice was a noble one.

Why did you save the world from Rula-Wade? What motivated you to do all of this?

• The world needed to be saved. Someone had to step up.
• Darrin Wade had to pay for his crimes, no matter what.
• What's better press than saving the world from a omnipotent being?
• The world will be mine one day. I need it here in one piece.

The world is saved from Darrin Wade... But what about all the others who were part of this journey? Theoden agreed to help the PPD against the Lost after being abandoned by his kindred. Alastor continues his quest to create the world's most powerful artifact... The Midnighter Club agreed to an alliance with Luddites, nominating Michael Binocolo as their representative. Vladimir Zolner is keeping tabs on the Rulu-Shin, Arachnos, and a scientist named Dmitry Krylov. Agent Kwahu was pardoned for his bungling of the Warburg Conference and his transfer to Siberia was called off. During the chaos after Statesman's death, Marshal Blitz was broken out of the Zig by an unknown group... After hearing of Marshal Blitz's escape, Gossamer began her search to find her former leader. Dakota Berg's debt was forgiven after his help with the Darrin Wade case. Unfortunately, he gained it all back after a drunken night of celebrating. The Aurora Borealis from Psyche's mind remains in the body of Tyrka. Her plans for the future are unknown. Glacia has been given permission to go back into the field and fight crime. Leo Poggiani took over Blackbeard's tavern in Port Oakes and now makes sure no hero goes near it.. Specialist Greer is working on creating a hyper-advanced suit of armor to become a super hero in the PPD, much like Blue Steel. Protector Z-958 has begun to exhibit some odd behavior after being controlled by Aurora Borealis. Crey is unsure what to do with this current model. After Statesman's death, Positron was nominated to be the new leader of the Freedom Phalanx. Ms. Liberty renewed her cause to try to redeem Lord Recluse. Penelope Yin was inducted as the newest, and youngest, member of the Freedom Phalanx. As for Darrin Wade... Lady Grey: Well, Mr. Wade. You've caused the world quite a deal of trouble. Darrin Wade: Urgh... you... Lady Grey: You've talked enough, Mr. Wade. Allow me to go on. Lady Grey: Without Statesman and Sister Psyche's powers, you're just a very mortal man. Lady Grey: The world wants you dead, but I think your pathetic excuse for a life can still serve a purpose. Lady Grey: We're going to pry everything you discovered from Rularuu out of your brain, Mr. Wade.

Debriefing

Lady Grey Task Force

Infernia

Background

Infernia is a NPC ally who is found during the mission Save captured psychics from Lady Grey (CoH and CoV, levels 45 - 50). She is one of the survivors of the legendary Omega Team. She will have been captured by the Rikti and in need of a rescue when you find her first, and must be freed so she can help you.

Once free, she will follow you and will attack any Rikti in her aggro range. She must be escorted to the mission exit, though does not need to survive, as the mission will not fail if she falls.

Once she is free, an ambush consisting of two waves of Rikti will attack her.

During the mission, Infernia has the hit points of a Boss of the level of the mission. Her powers are very damaging once she gets in melee range. Her survival is not paramount to the mission's success, though this may require further testing with different parameters.

Some advice would be to not bring her or her sister Glacia to fight Dra'Gon, who has some nasty Area of Effect attacks. Although it is unlikely none of the sisters will be able to gain enough aggro for him to kill them directly, the area attacks can still kill them accidentally.

As a final note, you need to free Infernia so Glacia and her captors spawn. Once Glacia is free, Dra'Gon himself will spawn.

Dialogue

Editor's Note: She will not move until she has finished saying everything... and that's a lot. It is very likely the first wave of ambushers will reach her before she has finished, so be careful not to leave her behind!

Infernia Dialogue During the Lady Grey Task Force

Glacia and Infernia

Upon Rescue:

Infernia: I'm Infernia. I'm with the Omega Team.

Infernia: Glacia, my sister, is here, too.

Infernia: We snuck in with a supply shipment, but I didn't think it was taking us home.

Infernia: There's a lot I need to tell your commanders.

Infernia: Is Lady Grey still in command?

Infernia: Or Statesman?

Infernia: Or Blue Steel? Nothing could have killed that guy.

Infernia: I know we have a mission, but I've got so many questions!

Infernia: Like, did anyone ever figure out what was up with the Clockwork King?

Infernia: Or what about all that build-up on Striga Island?

Infernia: Oooh, I wonder if my apartment in Overbrook's still there?

Infernia: It probably got rented, but I'm sure dad kept the family place in Downtown Astoria.

Infernia: Hey, did Manticore and Sister Psyche ever get together?

Infernia: I always wondered about that.

Infernia: Aw, now I can't stop thinking about eating an Up-and-Away Burger!

Infernia: Most Rikti food tastes like algae unless you can get its psychic 'flavor transmission'.

Infernia: This one time, Glacia and I found a wild apple tree while we were escaping a patrol. It was like heaven!

Infernia: All these years. I can't believe I'm back home.

If Lost:

Infernia: Years on the Rikti Homeworld and I can still get lost in a base! Arrgh!

If Recaptured:

Infernia: I'm not getting recaptured now! THIS girl's going to margarita night in El Super Mexicano!

When Found:

Infernia: Good one! Steaks are on me at In Front!

At Exit:

Infernia: Thanks for the escort!

Ambush:

Random Rikti: Destroy: Omega Terrorist!

Information

Infernia and her twin sister Glacia spent years battling each other before the Rikti attacked. United for the first time, they fought side-by-side and voluntereed for the Omega team together. Like all members of the Omega team, their fate had been a mystery until now. Now they've returned to Earth, and they have some important news to tell.
