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.
I'd love for you to meet Polly Cooper. She's a coordinator for the Civil Air Patrol, and she knows a lot about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Polly has access to Training Enhancements.
Miss Cooper is very skilled at her job and should prove to be a valuable asset to you.
I know a guy named Kevin Cordell who runs a small security consulting business. He's heard about you and would like to talk sometime about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Kevin used to be a hero, and he still has access to Training Enhancements.
Kevin is not easily impressed, but I think you will do just fine with him, Character.
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 have to admit that Georgia Fields doesn't have the best reputation. No one really knows how she gets her information, but she's an excellent source on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. She is usually able to get her hands on training enhancements.
If you are careful, Georgia can be of great assistance to you.
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'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.
If you ever have a computer problem or want a lead on some computer related crime, you should talk to Justine Kelly. She's a whiz at technical stuff and a bit of an online hero in her own right. Lately she has been focusing her attention on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Justine has access to Training Enhancements.
Justine is a very skilled young lady.
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.
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.
Melanie Peebles has the power to see things through her dreams. Her most recent dreams have been about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Melanie has access to Training Enhancements.
Do not dismiss Melanie's guidance lightly.
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.
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.
Keep a low profile when you are working with Kirsten.
Level 25-29
You should go see Collin Larson. He's a cybernetics expert and a real friend to heroes everywhere. He knows a great deal about the Freakshow and the Family. He also has Training Enhancements.
Collin is well suited to work with a hero like you, Character.
There's a scientist named Marvin Weintraub who's quite the expert on advanced technologies, the Freakshow, and the Family. He also has training enhancements.
Marvin has done as much to help the heroes of Paragon City as anyone in the world.
Information
Medium
Claire Childress is known in occult circles as an unwilling medium. A natural magnet for ghosts of all kind, Claire's been hearing voices from the spirit world since childhood. She's even been possessed on more than a few occasions. Much of Claire's adolescence was spent in hospital wards for the mentally ill, and not even her parents believed she was sane until she started predicting future disasters. Young Claire found a friend in a hero named Alyssa Stone, a powerful magician. Alyssa became a mother figure to Claire and helped her master her talents and use them for the greater good. Alyssa died in the Rikti War, but Claire continues to work in honor of her memory, helping heroes when she can and warning them of any disturbances she can sense.

Retrieve the stolen weapons from the Freakshow
Briefing
There's been a great deal of chaos on the streets of the city, and a good deal of it has been started by a gang called the Freakshow. This highly factionalized group of nihilistic anarchists has become dangerous, fueled by a drug called Excelsior and their unwavering hatred of 'the system.' Their tenacity and wild abandon make them dangerous opponents. I just got a tip that the Freakshow have taken raided the Lockhart Aerotech weapons lab and made off with a mighty arsenal. Will you retrieve the stolen weapons from the Freakshow?
Mission Acceptance
The Freakshow aren't just thugs with guns. They're well armed, well equipped, and crazy. With all of the Excelsior in their systems, many Freaks can barely feel pain. What's more, lots of them have undergone radical cybernetic surgery to turn themselves into walking death machines. So this isn't going to be easy.
Unnecessary Solicitation
You need to get those stolen weapons back from the Freaks. We can't have them running around with Lockhart's weapons technology.
Mission Objective(s)
Scientific notes litter the floor, each one detailing advances that are now part of the Freakshow's arsenal.
- Defeat Freak leader, his crew
- 6 weapons caches remaining
You have secured the weapons and defeated the Freakshow.
Enemies

Advanced weapons |
| These weapons are all highly advanced, some of them bordering on the exotic. You can only imagine how much havoc the Freakshow could have wrought with them. |
Badge
The Pwnz badge is awarded upon mission completion.
| Pwnz You have arrested one of the higher-ranking members of the Freakshow. |
Debriefing
You did everyone a big favor, Character. The Freakshow get most of their technology through theft, and I'm sure you'll agree they don't need to get any more dangerous. Here, you should take some of the weapons you confiscated. I'm sure you'll make better us of them than the Freaks would.
Temporary Power
After the mission debriefing, the hero will earn the Confiscated Beanbag temporary power.
|
Confiscated Beanbag Auto: Ranged, Minor Damage (Smashing), Foe Disorient You confiscated this weapon from a Freakshow base. It fires a single, non-lethal beanbag that can seriously disorient a target. You have 50 beanbags. |

A Hand of Iron (20-24)
Souvenir
Iron Hand's Badge
Detective Jackson gave you Iron Hand's badge after you apprehended the disloyal agent. It's a constant reminder that life in Paragon City can be treacherous, even to hardened professionals.
A Hand of Iron
Your routine missions against the Freakshow were going well. Perhaps too well. Your contact informed you that your constant thwarting of Freakshow schemes had put an undercover cop in danger! The Freaks suspected they had a mole.
You hit the streets, defeating Freak after Freak in an attempt to divert suspicion from the mole. If you could only make your actions seem random, not directed, perhaps the Freaks would let their suspicions slide. In one battle, you recovered a list of names from a defeated Freak. You took the list to Det. Rondel Jackson, who was dismayed to learn that his officer's name was among those listed. It seemed the Freaks' suspicions might be on the money.
Det. Jackson asked you to rescue his agent, Iron Hand. After an intense battle with the Freaks, you learned that Iron Hand had indeed become one of them. His undercover persona had become his life.
Prevent Freakshow from making off with the electronics
Briefing
The Freakshow have broken into a warehouse full of electronic parts, which they no doubt plan to use for their cybernetic enhancements. If you get over there right now, you may be just in time to prevent the Freakshow from making off with the electronics.
Mission Acceptance
Our informants are the only thing keeping us in step with the Freakshow.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I need you to stop the Freakshow from getting their hands on those electronics.
Mission Objective(s)
Smashed bottles and bad techno music betray the presence of the Freakshow.
- Bust electronics thief, his crew
You have defeated the Freakshow.
Enemies
Debriefing
With my information and your skill, we will certainly shut the Freakshow down.
Patrol the area and prevent the Freakshow assaults
Briefing
The Freakshow have increased their activity in one of my patrol zones. It seems they're targeting specific business folk for assault. I need you to patrol the area and prevent the Freakshow assaults.
Mission Acceptance
This kind of activity hurts the economy of Paragon City, Character.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I need you on that patrol route, hero.
Mission Objective(s)
- Patrol Talos Island for Freaks
Note: This mission requires you to visit 5 locations scattered around Talos Island and click on the police call box there.
Debriefing
Thanks for stopping those Freakshow assaults, Character. If we let the Freaks intimidate Paragon City's business men, they may well achieve the anarchy they crave.
Hey, Character, I got a message from a friend of mine, Detective Rondel Jackson. Your recent Freakshow encounters have put one of his undercover agents in jeopardy. It seems the Freaks are beginning to suspect they have a mole, simply because you often happen to be at the right place at the right time.
Cull the numbers of the Freakshow
Briefing
We need to divert suspicion from that undercover agent who infiltrated the Freakshow. I want you to go cull the numbers of the Freakshow. If you start taking on Freaks at random, they may begin to realize that you don't have inside information about their activities.
Mission Acceptance
If this doesn't work, Det. Jackson may have a hard time pulling his man out of their.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I need you to take out more Freakshow minions. They're still suspicious of our agent.
Mission Objective(s)
- Divert suspicion from mole
- Defeat 20 Freakshow
You found a list of names on one of the Freakshow you defeated.
Enemies
|
List of names |
| You recovered this list of names from the body of one of the Freakshow members you defeated. |
Debriefing
One of the Freaks was carrying this list? Hmm. I don't recognize any of the names, but I'll ask Det. Jackson. Maybe the list has something to do with that undercover agent he placed among the Freakshow.
Take the list to Det. Rondel Jackson
Briefing
This list of names you found on the Freakshow may mean something to Det. Rondel Jackson. Would you take the list to Jackson? I need to hear his take on it.
Mission Acceptance
Hopefully, Jackson will be able to make some sense of those names.
Unnecessary Solicitation
We need another opinion on that list of names.
Mission Objective(s)
- Deliver list to Det. Jackson
Debriefing
Hmm, it looks like the Freaks put together a list of possible moles in their operation. Wait a minute! This guy, that's our undercover cop! His code name is Iron Hand. Thanks, Character, I will try to pull him out of their right away.
Debriefing
So, the Freaks might be wise to that undercover agent? That doesn't sound good for this Iron Hand fellow. I'll see if there's anything else you can do to help.
Go talk to Det. Jackson
Briefing
You should go talk to Det. Jackson. He's concerned about Iron Hand, that undercover agent he placed with the Freakshow. It sounds like the agent's in danger, and Det. Jackson could really use your help.
Mission Acceptance
Thanks, Character. Please do anything Jackson asks of you.
Talk to Det. Jackson
Unnecessary Solicitation
Have you talked to Det. Jackson yet? I told him to expect you!
Mission Objective(s)
- Talk to Det. Jackson
Briefing
Thanks for meeting with me. I haven't heard from Iron Hand all day, and he's not responding to his pager. His last known location was a Freakshow hideout. Please get over there and see if you can find any sign of him. If you learn anything, report back to me.
Defeat base leader and his crew
Unnecessary Solicitation
Have you located Iron Hand yet? Check out that hideout.
Mission Objective(s)
These sewers have been blocked off by piles of debris. It looks like the Freaks don't want to be found.
- Defeat base leader and his crew
After questioning the Freakshow gangers, you learn that Iron Hand has left the base. He's with a group of Freaks who are hell-bent on some secret objective.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Freezeek (Freakshow Tank Smasher)
Take info to Det. Jackson
Unnecessary Solicitation
You should talk with Det. Rondel Jackson.
Mission Objective(s)
- Take info to Det. Jackson
Briefing
Iron Hand's with that group? Oh, man. Word on the street is that they're going to assault a Council base. I need you to head over there and get Iron Hand to safety.
Rescue Iron Hand
Unnecessary Solicitation
You need to locate Iron Hand! He could be in serious trouble!
Mission Objective(s)
The sounds of battle ring out from the base. In this melee, it won't be easy to get Iron Hand out unscathed.
- Rescue Iron Hand
You have defeated the Freakshow and apprehended Iron Hand.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Iron Hand (Freakshow Tank Swiper)
Debriefing
Det. Jackson wanted me to pass this on to you. He said that Iron Hand was deep undercover for a while, but they never thought they'd lose him like that. It happens every once in a while, most frequently with the Freakshow. Their hedonistic lifestyle makes it easy for them to ferret out agents, and even easier for the agents to succumb to their self-indulgent ways. Jackson wanted to extend his thanks to you for your help, and your discretion.
Here, take Iron Hand's police badge. He won't be needing it, now that he's joined the Freakshow. And you should have a reminder of the price we all pay to make this city safe.
