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.
I've been asked to keep this very quiet, but someone from the CIA wants to meet you. Her name is Kirsten Woods and she knows quite a bit about the Sky Raiders. She also thinks there may be more to the Lost than meets the eye. As a CIA operative, Agent Woods has access to Training Enhancements.

Information
Anthropologist
Piper Irving recently graduated from Paragon University with a PhD in Anthropology. Unlike many of her classmates, she decided to stay in the city to continue her research. Her particular area of focus is the city's religion-based criminal organizations. After a few near-death experiences, she has learned that it's much better to work with heroes than on her own. She is often consulted because of her expertise on the belief systems and practices of groups like the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. She's very enthusiastic about her work and is always looking for new help with her research.

Find Suzanne Trent
Briefing
In the wake of the Rikti War, there's been a resurgence of all kinds of mysticism. This has helped in some cases, even providing the city with new hope. But it has also caused a great deal of trouble. One new cult calls itself the Banished Pantheon. They have some sort of dark power; they can animate the dead and call spirits from beyond the grave! A reporter named Suzanne Trent was investigating them, but now she's gone missing. Please find Suzanne Trent as soon as possible.
Mission Acceptance
The creatures we have seen the most frequently have been dubbed Husks; they seem to be made from the animated bodies of the dead.
Mission Objective(s)
- Find Suzanne Trent
Clue: Suzanne Trent's Story
When you rescued Suzanne Trent, she said:
'I've seen a lot of horrible things since I started this investigation. This Banished Pantheon cult, they're inhuman! They worship some kind of lost god-like beings, horrible prehistoric entities that feed on pain. Their chief god is Lughebu, who demands that they learn about all beings of power. Here, take this idol I discovered. I have a feeling there's some sort of dark magic about it.
Temporary Power: Idol of Lughebu
When you rescued Suzanne Trent, she gave you this idol she found in the Pantheon's lair. While carrying it, you have the ability to drain the life from nearby foes, increasing your own Hit Points. The idol must be returned to the MAGI vault within 3 real days.
Debriefing
According to Suzanne Trent, the Banished Pantheon is investigating all beings of power. I must say, that phrase has an ominous ring to it. Depending on the definition, it could include heroes like yourself.
Go to Striga Isle
Briefing
Have you ever been over the Striga Isle? 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.
Mission Acceptance
The council 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.
Mission Objective(s)
- Go see Stephanie Peebels
- Striga Isle
Debriefing
Greetings. I hope you are ready for that which lies ahead.
Curtail Circle rituals in Talos Island
Briefing
The Circle's activities in Talos Island have grown more brazen and outrageous lately, and everyone is starting to fear for their lives. I'd like you to curtail some of their rituals in Talos Island. Circe Island and Eleusis are particularly overrun, but I'm sure you can find places all over the zone to take a stand against them.
Stop the Warriors from stealing the museum's artifacts
Briefing
Looks like the Warriors are at it again. They've broken into the warehouse where the museum was storing next month's feature exhibit. Whatever they're looking for, we need to keep it out of their hands. Please go stop the Warrior from stealing the museum's artifacts.
I am not sure how long they will be there, so move as quickly as you can.
Mission Objective(s)
- Stop gang leader and his crew
- Rescue the artifact
Clue: Piece of the Wheel of Destruction
This oddly shaped chunk of stone looks like it might be a part of a wheel or a disk. There are strange runes covering its surface.
Debriefing
The Warriors said this was a piece of the Wheel of Destruction? Interesting. I wonder how many other pieces there are.
Take the artifact piece to Azuria
Briefing
One of my heroes found this broken piece of stone while he was stopping a Banished Pantheon plot. It looks familiar, and I need to find out more about it. Can you take the artifact piece to Azuria? I'd really like to have her opinion.
My instincts tell me that this thing is important. Watch out for trouble.
Ambush
Upon accepting this mission, a hero will be abushed by a group of Tsoo.
Mission Objective(s)
- Deliver artifact to Azuria
Recover idols from the Banished Pantheon
Briefing
There was a break-in at the Paragon City Museum. The thieves stole two items on loan to the museum from Mexico, stone idols to the Aztec gods Coatilcue and Tlaloc. One of the guards identified the thieves as members of the Banished Pantheon cult. Will you recover the idols from the Banished Pantheon? They probably have the idols under magical guard; you'll need a teammate to help break their spells of protection.
I don't know the reason for the Banished Pantheon's interest in the old Aztec gods, but it can't bode well.
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat lead cultist and his coven
- 2 idols to recover simultaneously
Clue: Aztec idol of Coatilcue
This idol is dedicated to the Aztec goddess Coatilcue, the Earth Mother.
Clue: Aztec idol of Tlaloc
This idol is dedicated to Tlaloc, the Aztec God of Rain.
Debriefing
Recovering those idols stopped a minor international incident. From what you tell me, it sounds as though the Pantheon planned to feed on the spirits of those old Aztec gods. Fascinating. I cannot begin to fathom their motives.
Stop both groups of mystic madmen
Briefing
A large number of pre-cognitives have been reporting visions of a nightmarish battle beneath the streets of the city. In these visions, the Banished Pantheon cultists battle the Circle of Thorns for control of some sort of mystic vortices that trap wandering spirits. And in these visions, you appear as well. Are you willing to face this vision and stop both of these groups of mystic madmen?
I don't know the purpose of that vortex, but I have been told that you must close it.
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat all villains in sewer
- 3 spirit traps to destroy
Badge
Debriefing
The Circle of Thorns and the Banished Pantheon are nightmares enough on their own; I'm impressed by your ability to battle their forces together. From what you heard, it seems that the Circle may have been trapping the spirits of the dead, then extracting information from them. Perhaps the Pantheon sought those same trapped spirits to slake their hungers.
Template:Mission SeeTISecChief
Find the missing class
Briefing
Professor Black from Paragon University recently took an advanced class of geology students spelunking in the caves under the city. It's kind of a tradition for him, but this was the first time he's taken a class down since the Rikti War. According to the dean, that class hasn't reported back yet. Somebody's got to find that missing class. You only have 75 minutes to find the students.
I'm worried about this class. They were supposed to be back hours ago.
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat lead mystic and his coven (Timed, 1:15)
- 4 people to save
Clue: Professor Black conversation
When you rescued Professor Black, he said:
'It was most extraordinary! We had found what looked to be some sort of earlier excavation. It was incredible. The huge caverns! The most amazong rock formations! There was a strange stone that looked as though it were some sort of petrified ice. We'd just located some sort of man-made stone work, when we were suddenly surrounded by those robed figures! It's a good thing you came along when you did!'
Debriefing
I wonder why the Circle attacked that class? Perhaps they were close to finding something the Circle didn't want anyone to know about? Regardless, the Professor and his students are safe. They have you to thank for that.
