This contact has now been added to the active tab of your Contact window.

Prior to Introduction

Contact is not introduced. Mr. Rodney begins with his Initial Contact dialogue.

Initial Contact

Hey there, Character. Happy to be talking to you at the moment, especially sans any beatings.

The name is Mr. Rodney, and I'm a representative of King Midas, head of the Goldbrickers.

Now, I know perhaps you and our fine organization haven't gotten along in the past, but, well, let's just consider the past the past, right?

King Midas wishes to extend a gesture of good will towards you in the form of me helping you get what you need. And I think I've got an idea of what we can do to help you out, so why don't we get started?

Greeting

• King Midas sends his regards.
• We're here to work together, Character.

Too Busy

I've got an idea of what we can do to help you out next, Character, but you'll only be able to handle it when you've reached threat level 30

No More Missions

+++ Missing Information +++

Store

Mr. Rodney does not have a store.

Missions

Cape Mission (Level 20-50)

Briefing

One of the things that King Midas wishes to help you out with is your image, Character. No offense, of course.

A sign to other villains and heroes that you're a big bad around here is if you've got a cape.

One of the traditional ways folks around here get their capes is by beating the snot out of a hero and stealing theirs. A rite of passage, you could say.

I know of a way that you can find yourself a hero, and a cape, if you want to elevate your social status around here in the Isles.

• Tell me how to find this hero.

Well, first, you'll need to get yourself to Paragon City. There are a few ways to go about this, but King Midas is willing to provide you with a specific way, mainly through the Family in Sharkhead.

He's put in a good word for you to some of the powers that be there. You should go talk to Lorenz Ansaldo in Sharkhead Isle. He'll be able to help you get into Paragon, but you may have to help him out with any problems he might have.

Speak with Lorenz Ansaldo

Unnecessary Solicitation

Lorenz is part of the Family. They're experts at smuggling people and goods to and from the mainland.

Mission Objective(s)

• Speak with Lorenz Ansaldo

Defeat all agents, destroy contraband

Unnecessary Solicitation

Lorenz is part of the Family. They're experts at smuggling people and goods to and from the mainland.

Mission Objective(s)

Longbow constantly looks for evidence to shutdown Family smuggling operations in the Rogue Isles. It's time to convince Longbow to mind their own business!

• Defeat all agents, destroy contraband
  • 3 crates to destroy

You cleared out the warehouse for the Family! Lorenz has set up a boat to take you to Paragon City, and a truck to take you to the statue park.

Enemies

Longbow

Notable NPCs

• Longbow Commander (Longbow Longbow Warden) (Boss)
• Contraband x 3 (Object)

Steal cape from hero

Unnecessary Solicitation

You've got your ticket to Paragon. All you have to do now is take down the hero and earn your prize!

Mission Objective(s)

You wait for the appropiate moment to launch your assault. Paragon City will soon fear your name!

• Steal cape from Hero
  • 2 statues to destroy
  • Defeat hero & allies

You have defeated a Paragon City hero and taken his cape!

Enemies

Longbow

Notable NPCs

• Hero Statue x 2 (Object)
• Longbow Commander (Longbow Longbow Warden) (Boss)
• One Hero out of the following:
  • Arc Flash (Boss)
  • Doc Quantum (Boss)
  • Ms. Shock (Boss)
  • Overdrive (Boss)
  • Stalwart (Boss)
  • No Mind (Boss)

Ambush! Upon attacking the guards around a statue, there will be one ambush by Longbow. There is one ambush for each statue. Longbow Eagle: Stop in the name of Longbow!

Ambush! After defeating the ambush from destroying both statues, there will be another ambush by Longbow. The Longbow Commander is within this group. Longbow Commander: Longbow agents attack!

Ambush! After defeating the Longbow Commander ambush, there will be one last ambush by Longbow. The random Hero is within this group. Random Hero: Character! Stop your evil ways!

You wrest the cape from the back of the fallen hero!

Debriefing

You can now access capes at the tailor!
You may now access the costume part Regular Back Capes at the Tailor.

You did it! Even now, there are villains in the Isles speaking of your abilities in a respectful tone.

However, the heroes in Paragon do not seem too terribly please about what you've done. But at least now when you go toe to toe with a hero, you'll have one more thing to show that you're better than them, and that's what really counts, isn't it?

Aura Mission (Level 30-50)

Briefing

So, what do you think of this whole Destined One story that Recluse has going? King Midas is a little leery on it. In all honesty, how can there be multiple Destined Ones?

Regardless, we've gotten wind of a way for you to unlock your powers even further. Imagine the whole cape deal, then multiply it.

There's a mage, goes by the name of Tarxius, who is supposed to know how to unlock someone's powers, to show everyone that you meet that you are the 'big bad' around here. Interested in looking him up?

• I just might be.

Archmage Tarixus can be found in Potter's Field on Sharkhead Isle. He doesn't have much love for the heroes of Paragon, so he may just be willing to give you a hand.

Speak with Archmage Tarixus

You have unlocked the power of the destined one!

Debriefing

You can now access auras at the tailor!

I can already feel the power coming out of you, Character! That ritual, it worked!

I don't think there's much else that King Midas or myself can do for you from here on out, but just make sure to remember the Goldbrickers on your path to power!
