Information

Military Analyst

Christine Lansdale is a retired Air Force officer who now works as a military analyst for the armed forces as well as several private groups. She has recently begun doing some consulting for the Freedom Corps, whose non-profit ideology she prefers to the corporate culture of Hero Corps, one of her long-standing clients. Christine specializes in demystifying the military process for civilian companies and heroes who are trying to work with the armed forces. She has many friends and contacts on both sides of the fence, so she serves as a valuable intermediary between the secretive and suspicious military and the prideful and sometimes reckless heroes.

Story Arc

Template:MeritAward

The Mysterious General Z (25-29)

Template:Souvenir The Mysterious General Z

Thwart the assassination attempt

Briefing

There've been rumors circulating in the underground that the Sky Raiders are planning to assassinate T'mbe Alwani, the Ambassador from the African country of West Libertalia. I need someone to thwart that assassination attempt. Are you up to it?

If anything happens to the ambassador, we'll have to call this mission a failure. You had better bring along some extra emergency teleporters just in case.

Ambassador Alwani must be protected. If he dies, we could well have an international incident on our hands.

Mission Objective(s)

You hear a shout and a loud crash. Then silence.

• Stop Sky Raider assassination
  • 3 people to rescue
  • Take Ambassador to exit

You defeated the Sky Raiders and saved the ambassador and his entourage.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• American diplomat (NPC Ally)
• General Z (NPC Ally)
• Ambassador Alwani (NPC Ally)

Ambush! After freeing each hostage you will be ambushed by a single squad of Sky Raiders soldiers

Debriefing

These flying mercenaries the ambassador described sound like the Sky Raiders. There have been rumors of high tech flying mercenaries working globally, and the Raiders' attempt on the Ambassador's life only confirm it.

Recover the stolen evidence

Briefing

I just got a strange message from someone calling himself General Z. According to him, the evidence that the Sky Raiders stole from Ambassador Alwani is being held in an old unused warehouse. If you can recover this stolen evidence, it could bring Sky Raider foreign operations to a halt.

That evidence should be enough to link the Sky Raiders to dozens of illegal operations in Africa.

Mission Objective(s)

According to the mysterious General Z, Ambassador Alwani's evidence is being held in this warehouse.

• Recover the stolen evidence

You recovered Ambassador Alwani's evidence against the Sky Raiders.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Assault Jump Bot

Debriefing

Those West Libertalians are really thorough. Look at all of this evidence. There's no question that the Sky Raiders have been involved in those raids against Ambassador Alwani's Country.

Check the warehouse

Briefing

I got another tip from this mysterious General Z. He thinks it would be a good idea to investigate a local warehouse that's storing some equipment manufactured by Lockhart Aerotech. He mentioned that the records at the warehouse could give us some more information on the Sky Raiders' mercenary actions in West Libertalia. Considering his last time, maybe you should check out this warehouse.

These little tips from General Z seem to be good as gold. I wonder who he is?

Unnecessary Solicitation

Check that warehouse thoroughly.

Mission Objective(s)

General Z's second tip has led you to this Lockhart Aerotech warehouse. The first thing you notice is that there seems to be no one here to meet you.

• Recover records from warehouse
  • Seek evidence, Speak with foreman

You found that the equipment stolen from Lockhart Aerotech was being used by Sky Raiders in West Libertalia.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Assault Jump Bot
• Warehouse Foreman (NPC Hostage)

Debriefing

The mysterious General Z was right; these records are most illuminating. It seems the Sky Raiders have been stealing tech from Lockhart for a long time. Then they've been using that technology in their mercenary campaign in West Libertalia. But from the records you found at Lockhart's warehouse, I'm not sure you interrupted a theft at all. More like a regular supply run. I'm going to have some people I know look into this.

Capture the fugitive politician

Briefing

We got another message from the mysterious General Z. He says that you should talk to a senator named Gil Armand about his foreign policy work. He even knows where to find him, which is something the police may be interested in. Gil Armand was indicted just this morning for connections to the Sky Raiders. The police took most of his papers as evidence, but Armand himself disappeared. If you could capture this fugitive politician, we could get two jobs done at once.

According to General Z, you'll be able to find Gil Armand in an unused section of the sewers.

Mission Objective(s)

This old section of the sewers seems like the perfect hiding place for a traitor.

• Capture Armand and his guards

You captured Gil Armand, the traitorous politician.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Gil Armand (Sky Raiders Captain)

Debriefing

It looks like Senator Armand wasn't lying. The Sky Raiders hit the police van that was carrying all the evidence tying Armand to their organization. You got Armand himself, at least. That's one fewer villain out on the streets.

Get the evidence back from the Sky Raiders

Briefing

General Z just sent me the location of a Sky Raider base we should be interested in. According to Z, this base is where the Sky Raiders are keeping the evidence that links Senator Gil Armand to their organization. The police sure would like to see that evidence returned. Of course, you'll have to go through the Sky Raiders to get it back. Can you do it?

I feel nervous sending you out on this one. General Z's tips have been good so far, but I still haven't been able to learn his identity.

Mission Objective(s)

You know that this is going to be dangerous, but the only way you're going to reach the truth is by fighting through the Sky Raiders to get there.

• Recover evidence from Sky Raiders
  • 4 files to recover

You have recovered all the evidence from the Sky Raiders Base.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Debriefing

I can't believe this government document. It's incendiary! It proposes using the Sky Raiders as mercenaries for illegal government operations. And it squarely states that Colonel Duray and the missing members of Vigilance didn't die, but went rogue. This could destroy the careers of numerous people in the military and intelligence community. I'll make sure that everything gets back to the police, and that copies of this paper get to the right people. This General Z isn't playing games.

Head to the Lockhart Aerotech office

Briefing

General Z's tips have led us to some remarkable conclusions, and I think we need to follow up on them. In particular, I'd like to know more about the connection between Lockhart Aerotech and the Sky Raiders. Can you head over to the Lockhart office and ask around?

I'd sure like to know why Tyrone Lockhart is advocating government use of mercenaries. The same mercenaries who are supposed to be stealing from his company, no less!

Mission Objective(s)

It's no visual clue that tips you off to the Sky Raiders' presence. It's the subtle whiff of gun polish.

• Seek evidence at Lockhart
  • 4 bombs left, 3 clues left

You've prevented the Sky Raiders from destroying both the Aerotech office and the evidence you found there.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Jump Bot Incinerator

Debriefing

It's a good thing you got there when you did, or the Sky Raiders would have bombed that Lockhart office to smithereens. A lot of people owe you their lives today.

I guess the Sky Raiders were trying to destroy this evidence you found. And I can see why! This strongly hints that Lockhart Aerotech is working with the Sky Raiders. In the right hands, it's enough to start an investigation, at the very least.

Protect the research facility

Briefing

We have another tip from General Z. It seems the Sky Raiders are going to clear out that secret research facility you learned about. They don't want any evidence of their connection to Lockhart Aerotech to fall into your hands. Can you protect that research facility and prevent a massacre?

Most of those researchers probably didn't even know that their hard work was going to help the Sky Raiders.

Mission Objective(s)

The security system is already offline. You only hope the Sky Raiders haven't finished their grim work.

• Defeat lead Raider, his guards
  • Save technician! 3 clues to find

You saved the researchers and kept the Sky Raiders from acquiring the lab's prototypes.

Notable NPCs

• Jump Bot Incinerator
• Technician (NPC Hostage)

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Note

There is not a named leader for this mission.

Debriefing

Looks like General Z pointed us in the right direction again. Not only is all the evidence linking the Sky Raiders to Lockhart Aerotech still intact, but you've also kept those flying mercenaries from getting their hands on those new weapon prototypes.

Rescue General Aarons

Briefing

General Z just contacted me by phone, but he got cut off in the middle of our conversation. And I think I know why. Channel 6 just ran a story about the Sky Raiders attacking a private jet in flight. According to the newscaster, the Sky Raiders kidnapped returned General Howard Aarons.

Looks like the Sky Raiders may have figured out Z's identity and decided to strike against him. I need you to rescue General Aarons. After all he's done for us, it's the least we can do. Take this spare emergency teleporter, just in case.

General Aarons put himself on the line to get all of this information about the Sky Raiders into the open.

Mission Objective(s)

The Sky Raiders are sure to put up a fight, but you're ready for anything they can throw at you.

• Rescue General Aarons
  • Seek clues, Unlock back room

You rescued General Aarons from the Sky Raiders.

Enemies

Sky Raiders
Nemesis

Notable NPCs

• Jump Bot Incinerator x3 (Sky Raiders Jump Bot Incinerator)
• H.A.V.O.C. (Sky Raiders Jump Bot Incinerator)
• Mysterious Soldier (Nemesis Lieutenant)
• General Z (NPC Ally)

Ambush! After freeing General Z you will be ambushed by a single wave of Sky Raiders soldiers

Debriefing

All the evidence about the military connection to the Sky Raiders has gone on to the proper people. My military contacts have reported a sudden flash of resignations going high up the chain of command. Also, I think you'd be interested to know that the FBI has started an investigation into Tyrone Lockhart, CEO of Lockhart Aerotech. It seems they don't appreciate his company's efforts to supply the Sky Raiders with technology.

You've wrapped this one up nicely. But one thing still bothers me. That lab with the new Sky Raider gear. They were reverse engineering technology that looked like it belonged to Nemesis. Yes, Nemesis. The arch-villain who tried to take over the United States during the 1940's. No one's heard from him in 60 years, but that technology looked brand new. Puzzling, puzzling. Maybe we'll learn more about this one day.

Missions

Template:Mission Common Go to the warehouse and recover anything you find there Template:Mission Common Prevent Frankie from sleeping with the fishes Template:Mission Common Get over to Speilman's warehouse and defeat any of the Family you find there Template:Mission Common Go to the office, prevent the fire from starting, and rescue the people that are being held by the Family Template:Mission Go see Gordon Bower Template:Mission Common Go to the office where Frank Brandon works, and get him out safely Template:Mission Common Make sure the Family doesnt hire the Freakshow

Check the research facility and make certain that Dr. Bradley and his people are safe

Briefing

The Sky Raiders were recently stealing Rikti technology for a European crime syndicate. Interpol caught the syndicate's buyers, but not the Sky Raider contacts. Officially, the case is closed, but I think the Sky Raiders may try to make some side money by stealing more Rikti technology. We have their list of targets facilities, and I've been asking heroes to check things out. Could you go to one of the targeted facilities and make certain that Dr. Brandon Bradley and his people are safe?

If the Sky Raiders are going to attack that lab, you'll have your work cut out for you. Ensuring the safety of Dr. Bradley and his people will be your to priority. Also, the Sky Raiders employed jump-bots on each of the previous thefts, so if they do hit this place, you'll have to take it out too.

Mission Objective(s)

The improved security on this facility has obviously been bypassed. It looks like the Sky Raiders are already on the attack.

• Defeat leader Raider, his guards
  • 2 technicians to save, Find Dr. Bradley

You rescued Dr. Bradley and his assistants and recovered a Jumpbot memory unit.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Hostage x2 (NPC Hostage)
• Dr. Brandon Bradley (NPC Hostage)
• Assault Jump Bot

Ambush! After exiting the mission you will be ambushed by a single squad of Sky Raiders

Mission Objective(s)

• Talk to Justine Kelly

Mission Objective(s)

You are greeted almost immediately by the sounds of conflict.

• Defeat all Sky Raiders

You cleared the Sky Raiders Facility.

Enemies

Sky Raiders
The Lost

Notable NPCs

• None

Debriefing

You did a great job fighting through what was starting to look like a total mess. I'm guessing the Lost tried to jump the Sky Raiders to steal whatever Rikti devices they'd found and sell them. It is kind of weird that they acted so quickly, though, but there are a lot of mysteries about the Lost. The important thing is that you stopped the Sky Raiders.

Hit the streets and defeat a few Sky Raiders

Briefing

The Sky Raiders have been increasing the tempo of their operations, apparently they think that a couple of successes against some of the city's younger heroes makes them unstoppable. I'd like to see them get stopped, hard, and I would like to see you do it.

The Sky Raiders got a few successes in Terra Volta recently, but wherever or whenever you can stop their actions is a good place to start.

Ambush! After accepting the mission you will be ambushed by a single squad of Sky Raiders

Mission Objective(s)

• Combat Sky Raider menace
  • Defeat 30 Sky Raiders

You have defeated out enough Sky Raiders.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Debriefing

The Sky Raiders are a pretty bold and gung-ho outfit. But I think you've done a great job of showing them that their kind of law-breaking won't be tolerated.

Defeat members of the Family in Independence Port

Briefing

The Small business association in Independence Port are reporting an increase in activity by The Family in the zone. They're pushing people around and acting like they're the real power in the area. People are hoping that a hero will be willing to show those thugs who the real power in the city is.

Defeating about 30 Family members or so should be enough to demonstrate that they're not untouchable. I've heard that they've recently stepped up operations around Power Island, but you should be able to make an impression on them anywhere in the zone you can find them.

Mission Objective(s)

• Defeat 30 Family in Independence Port

You have defeated enough The Family

Debriefing

Thugs like the Family always try to assert their power over honest people. As long as there are heroes to stand against them, they won't be able to get away with it.

Break up deal between the Sky Raiders and Family

Briefing

The Sky Raiders and The Family aren't always on the best of terms, but they've been known to make deals with each other from time to time, Usually The Family likes to hire the Sky Raiders for mercenary work against their enemies, however, from time to time they have goods they want to exchange, This time, I've learned where such a deal is about to go down. Interested in breaking that deal up? They'll try to take care of business fast, though, you'll probably only have an hour and a half at the outside.

You'll have to do more then just show and bust some heads to see this one through, You'll need to gather all of the evidence and take down the negotiators for both sides. It's very likely that they'll be well protected, though, so you may want to take some allies with you. The Raider's negotiator will probably be a Lt. Vega, and if my sources are right, the Family will have 'Spats' Malone there for their end of the deal.

Mission Objective(s)

You spot Sky Raider guards and Family thugs both keeping watch for trouble. Trouble like you.

• Stop villains' leaders, their men - 1:30:00
  • 6 pieces of evidence to gather

You found all the evidence for the deal and defeated both side's negotiators.

Ambush! After accepting the mission you will be ambushed by a single squad of Sky Raiders

Enemies

Sky Raiders
The Family

Notable NPCs

• Assault Jump Bot
• Lt. Vega/Lt Gary (Sky Raiders Captain)
• 'Spats' Malone/Joey 'The Shirt' (The Family Underboss)

Debriefing

From what you gathered it looked like they were trading Weapons and diamonds for Superadine and money in offshore accounts. I'm glad you were able to break this one up, it would have been the kind of win-win deal for the bad guys that would have made innocent people lose.

Defeat Sky Raiders in Terra Volta

Briefing

The word is out that the Sky Raiders think that they're close to being unopposed in Terra Volta. I'd like you to show them just how wrong they are.

The Sky Raiders shouldn't be hard to find, but I've heard that the Challenger Technology center and the Carter Engineering complex are particularly overrun right now. That doesn't mean you have to confine yourself to those areas, though.

Mission Objective(s)

• Combat Raiders in Terra Volta
  • Defeat 30 Sky Raiders

You defeated enough Sky Raiders in Terra Volta.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Debriefing

The word is out that the Sky Raiders are reassessing their activities after the battle you gave them. Good work.

Template:Mission Common Take the fight to the Family in Independence Port

Fight the Sky Raiders in Terra Volta

Briefing

The Sky Raiders are starting to get out of control in Terra Volta. Their raids and constant thefts are a real hazard to the complex's continued operations. I need a hero who is willing to confront them and stop some of their actions in Terra Volta.

The Sky Raiders have been spotted all over Terra Volta, but if you're having trouble looking for them, I'm sure you'll find them around the Rogers Industries facility and the Gordon Trench, though you shouldn't have to confine yourself to those areas.

Ambush! After accepting the mission you will be ambushed by a single squad of Sky Raiders

Mission Objective(s)

• Combat Raiders in Terra Volta
  • Defeat 30 Sky Raiders

You have cleared enough Sky Raiders from Terra Volta to put a dent in their operations.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Debriefing

The Sky Raiders may be able to fly, but you've shown them that they aren't above the law.

Stop the Dimensional Shunt

Briefing

We just got a call from Dr. Julia Zaahn, the head researcher at a Portal Corporation facility. The Sky Raiders have launched an attack there. Their weapons have caused massive amount of damage and have started a feedback loop, that could cause the whole place to be shunted into another dimension. Get over there fast, and rescue the researchers. You only have 90 minutes to stop the Sky Raiders.

This mission is going to be a tough one. If Dr. Zaahn is right, she's going to need all of her lab techs working to prevent an accident, and a lot of them are being held by the Sky Raiders as hostages. What's more, there are a number of devices and computers that will need to be shut down to prevent a jump from taking place. You'll have to handle all of that on a short time limit.

Mission Objective(s)

The air crackles with energy, as you enter the facility.

• Stop Dimensional Shunt - 1:30:00
  • 6 People to save, 8 devices to shut down

With the assistance of Dr. Zaahn, you were able to prevent the dimensional shunt and saved the Portal Corporation lab.

Enemies

Sky Raiders

Notable NPCs

• Hostage x5 (NPC Hostage)
• Dr. Julia Zhaan (NPC Hostage)

Debriefing

That was a near thing Character. That whole building might simply have been sent to another dimension. The Sky Raiders are ruthless about cleaning up their crimes, but I didn't think they were willing to go that far.
