Information

Arachnos Portal Technicial

Portal Technician Grant Naylor joined Arachnos to get out of his old life of dead-end jobs. His overall aptitude test would have placed his as low-grade cannon fodder, except for one thing: While his overall academic ability was below average, he had an innate grasp of interdeminsional theory equal to most experts in the field. Naylor now works as part of the Arachnos Exploratory Science Division, where his intuitive feel for how inter-dimensional travel works is being put to use reverse-engineering other groups' dimensional travel technologies.

Initial Contact

Right, so you'd be VillainName, eh? Good ta meet ya. I'm Arachnos Portal Technician 1st Class Grant Naylor. I'm supposed to be tryin' ta figure out how these Circle portals work, and I think we almost got it, but then comes the hard part: Testing it. We're almost ready, but we need someone tough enough to survive anything on the other side. It's not an official Arachnos job, but I can afford to put it on me expense account.

Missions

Take Book from Circle

Briefing

All right, VillainName, here's the plan:

I think I almost got this thing workin', but I still need a coupl'a things done 'fore it's ready. Just to be sure, ya' know. I need to make sure that it's being' powered up right, an' to do that I need one a' the Circle's books on these things. After that, I'll need some test corrdinates that we know'll work. I know where ta get those, too, 'cept that Nemesis Army really ain't inta sharing. So, all I need is someone who's will to put a rabid weasel down the knickers of both the Circle and Nemesis gettin' these bits and pieces.

Mission Acceptance

Thanks, mate, that's a real favor. I'll make sure to appropriate some funds from me budget for ya. The first step is to get a book from the Circle. One of their blokes brought it out here for another of their blokes, and they 'aven't moved it back yet. It's called 'Of the Great Tower', but it's all about portals and stuff. Really the kind of things I need.

After you got that, there's a business that Arachnos intelligence things is a front for the Nemesis Army. They been movin' all kinds a' stuff, but it ain't been showin' up anywhere else. All the kinds a things you'd need for an inter-dimensional expedition. So, check that place out, and look for records a' where they might be sending it.

Mission Objective(s)

• Find Book

Clue: Of the Great Tower

Despite the books, tower, it seems to be all about how the Circle makes their portals. It's written in their own language, but copiously illustrated. On further perusal, it looks like the book isn't so much about portals in general, but that it's summing up how certain aspects of portal creation pertain to a much larger project.

Steal Coordinates

Mission Objective(s)

• Find Coordinates

Clue: Nemesis Explorer Report

These reports from the Nemesis Army Exploration corps cites dozens of different parallel dimensions, and list the coordinates for many of them.

Debriefing

Perfect! You're absolutely brilliant, VillainName! I hope ya didn't have too much trouble. Nemesis like to use those creepy office robots in places like that. Marvelous engineerin'. They really look human, 'till ya get too close, at least. An' those were probably older models. Anyway, we should have this up and runnin' in now time, now.

Attack Longbow portal base

Briefing

Them Longbow types are startin' to be a problem with dimensional travellin'. They've got some way a' detectin when we move, an' getting people in place ta interfere. Worse than the Nemesis Army, those lot are. Well, I got a plac that could put an 'old on that and keep 'em off our backs. It would mean jumpin' right inta a Longbow base, though. So, ya up for it?

Mission Acceptance

This is the good bit: You'll go in right through their portal. Once yer in, destroy their phase 'armonic tuners. Should be 3 of 'em. Then, put this Virus inta their computers, and take out their base commander. That should do 'em right.

Mission Objective(s)

• Infect Computer
• 3 PHTs to destroy
• Base Commander

Clue: Computer Virus

This computer virus was designed specifically with Portal Corp's systems in mind. Loading it onto one of their computers should interfere with their network for some time.

Debriefing

That should 'handle them for a while. Now, onta out own business, eh VillainName?

Rescue Expedition

Briefing

I've lost contact with one a' me other exploration teams. They're a bunch a' Arachnos Commandos. I sent 'em to investigate what could be tha world where the Rikti harvest some kinda slime monsters they're using over in Paragon, and try ta bring back a sample for experimentation. Last thing I got was that they'd been spotted by the Rikti. The mission is ta go ta that world and try ta bring back any survivors. Are ya up for it?

Mission Acceptance

I doubt there'll be more than one or two men alive, but do what ya can. An' try ta find any of their samples. Those slime thingies could be really useful ta know more about.

Mission Objective(s)

• Find Sample
• Find Survivor

Clue: Hydra Sample

This is a sample of the spores of the strange slime-creatures called the Hydra. The Rikti seem to use these things as biological weapons. It's no wonder Arachnos is intersted in them as well.

Debriefing

Bad end ta' a' lotta good fellas, but that's 'ow super-science goes, I guess. Still, glad it wasn't me. That bit a' them slime monsters ya grabbed'll be worth a lot ta tha bio-warfare boys. Good work all 'around. 'cept for them blokes gettin' killed, I suppose.

Destroy Aeon's Expedition

Briefing

I don't believe this, VillainName. Arbiter Leery just dropped a major problem on me lap. Seems that Dr. Aeon 'as been doing some interdimensional exploration on 'is own, without any authorization from Arachnos. Now Leery's told me I gotta be tha one ta handle it, or it's tha end a' me project, an' maybe tha end a' me. I ain't got tha forces I'd need ta take Aeon on me own, but Leer did give me some money ta do it with. I could spend a lot of time ta get a force together, or I could 'ire you an' anyone else you choose an pay ya that same ta stop Dr. Aeon's unauthorized dimension 'opping.

Mission Acceptance

Thanks, VillainName. Ya just saved me weeks a' paperwork. Now, we don't want to gaff Aeon 'imself, 'cause 'e's such a big resource for Arachnos. What I'll need ya to do is take out 'is expedition force, an then take out 'is lab. For tha expedition, take out the analysis hear an' tha expedition's leader. The world's dead, so there shouldn't be any locals ta interrupts. For tha Lab, you'll have ta go inside. Once in, you'll destroy tha computers an' capture his two science leads. They'll end up on my team after. I don't think it'll be too hard for ya.

Mission Objective(s)

• Defeat Commander and Staff
• 3 devices to destroy

Take out Aeon's Lab

Mission Objective(s)

• 2 scientists to kidnap
• 2 computers to destroy

Debriefing

An' that's how ya take care of scientific rivals! Brilliant work, VillainName. I already got both those scientists ya grabbed workin' for me, though one of 'em seems a bit more eager than the other. Still, it should be a big boon to me work, and Arbiter Leery's 'appy. You really did right by me.

Cause a Rikti Attack

Briefing

Those Longbow an' Portal Corps 'eroes just won't let up. We need a way ta distract 'em, or at least find someone else for them ta play with. Fortunately, I got a plan. It's kinda dangerous, and involves tha Rikti. More specifically, it involves calling tha Rikti down on Longbow. Ya interested?

Mission Acceptance

There should be 4 devices that tha explorers are usin' ta pin down their coordinates. Plant one a' these devices on each one, an' then get outa there. Tha Rikti should show up any minute an' head ta tha device. Ya might not want ta be there when that happens. Ya should also make sure that the expedition's Leader is out a' tha picture, just ta help tha panic. He's a fella called Dr. Advance. Shouldn't be hard ta miss.

Clue: Rikti Signal Device

These captures pieces of Rikti technology are made to find ways to signal the aliends. Hook them into the right equipment, and they'll even do it across dimensions.

Mission Objective(s)

• 4 devices to alter
• Defeat Dr. Advance

Debriefing

You caused some real fireworks, you did. Tha Rikti follwoed in force. Longbow's gonna have a hard time takin' care a' that mess.

Catch Longbow Commander

Briefing

I pulled in some favors, and we're givin' ya another go. I think I got the hang of 'ow this portal thingie works, right, and it's time to test it out for real, with those coordinates you got from the Nemesis Army. 'Course, that means the Nemesis Army's probably gonna be there, to, but there's too much at stake. So we need someone who's been out there before, who can 'andle it. An' that's you. Are ya in? It'll be rough. Ya might want ta bring some friends.

Mission Acceptance

I'm really glad ta be working' with ya again. Alright, the first one up should be a lot of fun. We've got some strange readings from a nearby alternate world. Accordin' to tha Nemesis Army, it's in danger of fallin ta tha Devourin' Earth, and the 'eroes are tryin' ta 'elp stop that from 'appening. We want ya ta catch one of tha 'ero commanders and find out just 'ow much is goin' on.

Tha commander's one a' their Ballista fellas. They're tough, real power 'ouses. Ya might want ta bring some more people.

Mission Objective(s)

• Catch Longbow Commander
