Information
Operative Grillo is a scientist dedicated to teh developments in science and technology to further the cause of Arachnos. He acts as the official Arachnos liason with Dr. Aeon in Cap au Diable through his proxies, and is involved with a number of secret Arachnos projects. He is a fervant supporter of Lord Recluse's vision - a technocratic world led by its greatest thinkers.
Initial Contact
Ah. Yes, I've been expecting you. I am Operative Grillo, the lead Arachnos developer for science and technology. I have need of assistance dealing with some matters vital to the security of Arachnos, and you've been identified as one of Lord Recluse's more capable lieutenants. Serve me well and you will serve Arachnos well, and what greater glory is there than that!

Collect tech from Warhulks
Nemesis. I'd consider him and his troops comical if they weren't so deadly. Underneath their brass-plater armor you'll sometimes find technology more advanced than even Arachnos can produce. The Warhulks in particular are of interest to Arachnos, so much that we'd like to learn more about them. Of course, this involves engaging the Warhulks, destroying them, and getting tech samples from them. We've received word that Nemesis is raiding one of the local warehouses for supplies, and that their assault team includes a number of Warhulks. Intercept the Nemesis troops and collect tech samples from the Warhulks!
This warehouse raid is typical of their resupply tactics, a simple hit-and-run. You'll have 75 minutes before they escape!
Briefing
If we can unlock the secrets of the Nemesis technology, we'll be unstoppable!
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat 3 Warhulks(?)
Clue: (Warhulk Tech Samples?)
(missed the name and description, clue fades on completion of mission)
Debriefing
These tech samples are perfect! With the brilliance of the Arachnos technicians, we shall one day unlock the secrets of Nemesis!
You are doing well. Arachnos appreciates loyalty!

Briefing
Mission Objectives
- Speak with Mongoose
"Yo. I remember when you was just a young punk runnin' through Mercy. Man, you're REAL bad now, eh? Well, this might be just what you need to prove that!
I seen some Snakes runnin' around some of the pits here on Mercy which ain't like nothin' I seen before. I'm talkin' about big, mean, and nasty. I thoght I'd take 'em for a new pair of boots, but then they start whuppin' me hard! I mean, they was fast and killer, and I had to beat tracks before I ended up as Snake chow. I reported it to Kalinda and she said she'd talk to someone higher up in Arachnos. Guess that's why you're here now.
Here's where the Snake hole is where I seen 'em. Deal with 'em if you can, and be quick about it. Last thing we need is some mutant Snakes chowin' down on all the fresh Zig rejects!"

Return of the S'lisur |
| When investigating a problem with new mutant Snakes on Mercy Island, you heard one of them mention the return of the S'lisur and Stheno |
Debriefing
Stheno and S'lisur? This could be... problematic. Perhaps it is time to enlighten you to some ancient history. When Arachnos first came to the Rogue Isles, they encountered these creatures being worshipped like gods. Archnos drove them underground, but then looked into a bit more of their past. A few Arachnos operatives keep knowledge of these records, but perhaps this is something worth looking into again.
Excellent. You are a true soldier of Arachnos!

Ancient History (part one) |
| It all started when Operative Grillo was called by Kalinda on Mercy Island about some Snake problems occurring there. Grillo sent you to speak with Mongoose, who told you about a new breed of Snake he had run into which was vastly more powerful than anything he had encountered before. You checked out the Snake pit he mentioned and found a nest of powerful Snakes who spoke of the return of Stheno and rise of the S'lisur. Operative Grillo mentioned how Arachnos came to the Rogue Isles and first encountered the Snakes, driving them deep underground. |
Speak with Regent Korol
Your recent encounter with the mutant Snakes on Mercy Island has uncovered smoe history which I thought was buried. I already told you of how the forces of Arachnos first encountered these creatures upon arriving on the Rogue Isles. Well there's more to it than that, and knowledge is the greatest tool to use against our enemies! While I'm not keen on her methods, she has produced results and is fluent in such lore. Speak with Regent Korol about the Snakes.
Briefing
Regent Korol is a center of information for Arachnos, and this makes her valuable.
Mission Objective
- Speak with Regent Korol
"Ah! How are you doing, my pet? I've been watching your progress through Grandville, and the experience has proved most entertaining!
You wish to know more about the Snakes, yes? I know of these creatures, of how they were once the dominant force of the Rogue Isles, of how early settlers of the islands would refer to them as gods and pay them tributes of blood. These Snakes, or S'silur as they call themselves worshipped the goddess Stheno. In their great temple beneath the island they unlocked the secrets of the earth. The world trembled at Stheno's touch!
Recently, I have sensed a stirring at the edge of my consciousness, a powerful psychic force. But when I have reached out for it, it slips away. Whatever it is, it's cunning and ancient. Beware!
Debriefing
Ancient earth gods. Remnants of lost civilizations. This is what we're dealing with here and this is what we should be prepared for.
|
Ancient History (part two) |
| Operative Grillo wanted you to know more about the history of the Snakes, and so sent you to speak with Regent Korol. Korol told you a story about how the Snakes ruled over the Rogue Isles and how early settlers paid homage to them. The Snakes unlocked the secrets of the earth and the world trembled at the tough of Stheno |
Steal lore from the Circle
There is another source of ancient lore regarding the Snakes which we have not tapped - the Circle of Thorns. I've spoken with the Arachnos Mystics and they have revealed that one of the older Circle temples might have more information on these Snakes. Invade the Circle of Thorns temple to find information on the S'silur!
Briefing
The Circle protects their secrets, but this one piece of information shall not remain a secret for long.
Mission Objective(s)
Steal lore from the Circle
