Information

Void Sanction Handler

Known only as 'The Major' this man acts as the handler for Void Sanction. He gives out cryptic clues for the locations of dead drops where you can pick up a new target for Void Sanction's special services.

Contact Unlocked

The Major of Hero Corp has an urgent message for you.

It's odd that Hero Corp will be contacting you based on your recent actions, but this mystery man has left a message on your phone asking you to call him for possible employment opportunities.

This contact has now been added to the active tab of your Contact window. This contact's storyline takes place after Night Ward and Dark Astoria.

Initial Contact

So glad you took the time to contact me, Character. You can call me The Major, and I work for Hero Corp.

Normally, Hero Corp just works as heroes for hire. The public calls us Mercenaries, but we provide a service to this city beyond what the normal heroes running around can. Corporations and even city officials have been known to hire Hero Corporation to act as security, or take down criminals that are beyond the capabilities of their police departments. Occasionally, Hero Corp will get jobs that public facing business would never take.

That's where we come in. We're a clandestine sub-division called Void Sanction. When Hero Corp. gets a job that needs extermination with extreme prejudice, I get tasked with handing those jobs out to the proper operatives.

And your current way of thinking makes you a perfect operative for Void Sanction.

Greetings

Souvenir

Disavowed

Having successfully performed six missions for the Void Sanction division of Hero Corp, you find youself disavowed after being blown by the hero known as Holo Man. Hero Corp and The Major want nothing to do with you, and Hero Corp does not even acknowledge you ever worked for them in any capacity.

Training Day

Briefing

I am glad you finally called. Truth be known, I've had my eye on you for a while. I like your methods and think you'll fit in with my division just nicely.

I head up a section of Hero Corp that does the jobs that the public side of Hero Corp can't. Some criminals seem to skirt our court systems or get released on technicalities. We need someone who is willing to go the extra effort to see a job is done right, you know what I mean?

• Yes, some criminals need to have their justice meted out immediately.

That's what I like to hear. My team is called 'Void Sanction', and you can simply call me 'The Major'. I'll be your handler, and you'll be doing some jobs for us that can, in no way, be associated with Hero Corp. You get caught -- or get sloppy -- and we'll disavow any knowledge of your actions. With that understood, let's get cracking.

We do things a little differently around here; we want things to be as hard to trace back to Hero Corp as possible. Each operation you execute will have a codeword, and that word will be the ONLY word you will hear me say for the duration of your operation. A courier is delivering to you a series of packages that need to be placed at dead drops throughout Brickstown.

A bike messenger comes up to you and has you sign for one small and five large envelopes.

In the small envelope is the list of locations for you to place each of the large envelopes, along with a codeword associated with that site. I need you to place these orders for other Void Sanction agents and familiarize yourself with the drop locations.

When you are done, call me back. If I answer with a code word, go to that location and get your orders. If you're lucky you'll be able to dispense justice on a level you only ever dreamed of before. If you're unlucky, the next time you call, I won't pick up.

	Dead Drop Orders
	A manilla envelope with a post-it note that reads 'amendment' on it.

The package contains a cell phone and orders to place this on the body of ROFLSTOMP, a Freakshow who has been linked to 12 murders.

	Prototype Cell Phone
	This cell phone is a Crey model 22X, about 3 generations ahead of the latest on the market. The flimsy case means it is probably not EM shielded yet and it just a prototype.

	Spider
	Detailed instructions on your target, a Freakshow leader named ROFLSTOMP. Also included in the package is a prototype cell phone that is unshielded and should emit enough EMP to fry the cybernetics of the Freakshow, which can be blamed as the cause of his death.

Spider.

Mission Objective(s)

Map: Warehouse_30_Layout_03_01

This is the location of the Freakshow in question.

Your orders packet includes a thumb drive and asks you to install the data on it on several Council computers to plant evidence that Archon Kruger is planning to betray them to the 5th Column. Then his elimination will uncover this evidence and simply be chalked up to an opportunistic Council member looking to clean up.

Candlelight

Detailed instructions on your target, Archon Kruger of the Council. Kruger is repsonsible for over 60 deaths in Paragon City in just a couple months. Also included in the packet is a thumb drive with Gigs of data that will make it look like Kruger was about to betray the Council to the 5th Column.

Washboard.

Mission Objective(s)

• Go to dead drop Washboard (Brickstown)

Your target is someone named 'Recall' who is from Praetorian Earth. He apparently is attempting to start up a Fixadyne lab here on Primal Earth, and you need to stop him before he begins. Planting some Resistance tech at the scene should pin his death on them and not you.

Washboard

Detailed instructions on your target, a Loyalist from Praetoria named Recall. Recall has eidetic memory, and is one of the few people who had access to the Fixadyne formula. He plans on replicating the drug here on Primal Earth. This cannot be allowed to happen. Recall was a big target of the resistance back in Praetoria, so a death by their hand will go unnoticed. You will get some Resistance tech from a Unified People's Army storehouse, eliminating their leader if need be, and plant that at the scene to divert attention away from yourself.

Void Sanction: Washboard

Unnecessary Solicitation

Washboard.

Mission Objective(s)

I Love It When A Plan Comes Together

Briefing

No time for dead drop. I have to give you these orders in the clear. You ready?

• Yes Major, I am ready. Shoot.

There is a guy, former Crusader from Praetoria, wants to blow up the new Powers division getting set up here on Primal Earth. Hero Corp was hired to arrest this man, but I made sure that that job was put into the hands of their C-level operatives, real buffoons. This gives Void Sanction a chance to strike the blow that Hero Corp isn't legally able to. First I need you to go and collect some explosives from a Council base then plant these in that damn Crusader's HQ. After you take down the Crusader, you can detonate the explosives and cover up your tracks.

Void Sanction: Orders in the Clear

Unnecessary Solicitation

You can't be serious.

The Major hangs up.

Mission Objective(s)

Map: 5th_Column_30_Layout_12

This Council arsenal should have the bombs you need.

  • 2 bombs to steal.

The Crusader Dialogue

Before Combat:

The Crusader: Cursed Powers Division! They will not do here what they did in Praetoria. That I promise.

Combat Start:

The Crusader: Here to stop me, Character?

Holo Man

Briefing

Took me a while, but I tracked you down. I had to piece everything together that I had witnessed and then a pattern became clear.

• Listen

There was a connection between all these deaths I had seen. You kept your face hidden from the shopkeeper's surveilance cameras, and from the cameras inside that Crey lab.

• Next

But I was able to get enough for a gait match to know that it was the same person in each incident.

• Next

That trick with the cell phone was cute, but I caught on soon enough. Then there was the evidence you planted on Archon Kruger. I had an eye on him for a while, my own spyware on the Council computers. When new records just started popping up, I figured something was about to go down.

• Next

I was close to you, but I needed to catch you red-handed, so I leaked the information I had about this Crusader here, hoping to draw you out. Worked like a charm. Now, I get to bring you in, and you can tell me all about who you work for.

• Prepare to fight

Holo Man Dialogue

Before Combat:

Holo Man: With the evidence I have gathered, you are going down for a long time, Character!

Combat Start:

Holo Man: You won't get away with this.

First Blood:

Holo Man: Who are you working for?

75% Health:

Holo Man: I know you didn't come up with this stuff yourself! Who is pulling your strings?

50% Health:

Holo Man: Are you a member of Void Sanction?

25% Health:

Holo Man: Who runs Void Sanction? TELL ME!

Upon Defeat:

Holo Man: You are finished, Character...
