'''Briefing'''
 +
 
 +
Good to meet you, {{Character}}. I am Fortunata Gossamer. You can just call me Gossamer, as I'm technically not apart of [[Arachnos]]. You see, I serve under [[Marshal Blitz]], the leader of the Rogue Arachnos in  Warburg. To make a long story short, Blitz is leading his own group of [[Rogue Arachnos]] to glory and towards the destruction of Paragon City.
 +
 
 +
We've heard a lot about your abilities, {{Character}}, and we would like your help in our next big plan. If all goes according to plan, you will become infamous, feared throughout Paragon City, and the Rogue Arachnos shall show that they are a new world super power. Are you interested?
 +
 
 +
'''Mission Acceptance'''
 +
 
 +
Excellent. Here are some dossiers that will bring you up to speed. Our grand plan will be to make [[Warburg]] into a new super powered nation to be feared throughout the world. You and Marshal Blitz will be at the head of it, Blitz being the leader of the Rogue Arachnos, while you are seen as the super-powered villain who played 'king maker', as it were.
 +
 
 +
Our target is [[Alexis Cole-Duncan]]. Marshal Blitz has set up a fake cease-fire and has convinced the US government to send Alexis in as a negotiator. Blitz, in all of his cunning, has also managed to create an even sweeter deal.
 +
 
 +
Alexis will only be accompanied by [[Manticore]] in the actual meeting room; a squad of [[Longbow]] will be monitoring the proceedings in another part of the building. That is where you come in for the first part of our plan.
 +
 
 +
You will attack the Longbow security squad to eliminate their back up and also disrupt their monitors on the conference. Manticore and Alexis will attempt to escape when we spring our trap on them. {{orange|You will have to defeat Manticore and take Alexis to a drop off point.}}

She is nearly 77 years old, but she maintains some form of youth, thanks to the blood of Statesman that runs through her veins.}}

When Blitz learned he was dying of cancer, he murdered the governor of the island and took control of it for himself. He attempted to fire warheads into [[Paragon City]], but each was destroyed by several super groups of Paragon City.

Description

Rogue Arachnos Fortunata

Fortunata Gossamer was one of the first women assigned to help Marshal Blitz in Warburg. Originally, she was merely there to ensure that no heroes attempted to psychically control Bltiz or the governor. However, Gossamer believed in Marshal Blitz's goals and helped him take over Warburg.

Gossamer's faith in Marshal Blitz is rock solid; some members of the Rogue Arachnos say that Gossamer thinks she is the next 'Red Widow', the woman who originally helped Lord Recluse get into power.

Excellent. Here are some dossiers that will bring you up to speed. Our grand plan will be to make Warburg into a new super powered nation to be feared throughout the world.

POI: Alexis Cole-Duncan
NAME: Alexis Cole-Duncan. Daughter of Marcus 'Statesman' Cole

OCCUPATION: Former heroine, Miss Liberty. Current occupation is working together with General Howard Aarons as an international consulate for super-powered threats.

POI: Marshal Blitz
NAME: Marshal Jason Blitz

OCCUPATION: Formal Marshal for Isle of Warburg. Current leader of the 'Rogue Arachnos'

BACKGROUND: Marshal Blitz was once the marshal of Warburg, an island in the Rogue Isles that was infamous for its WEB system, which developed extremely powerful missile weapons. Blitz was charismatic and ambitious, thwarting every attempt by heroes, sanctioned by the US government, to oust the control Arachnos had over the island.

Blitz has occasionally launched attacks on Paragon and even the Rogue Isles, keeping the people of both in a state of unease.

We have Rogue performed several extremely risky procedures on Blitz to keep his cancer maintained.

Unnecessary Solicitation

The meeting is underway. You had better hurry.

Mission Objective(s)

Longbow security is out in force within this Arachnos base.

  • Kidnap Alexis Cole-Duncan
    • Disable the communications array
    • Intercept Miss Liberty!
    • Take Miss Liberty to the hand-off point!

You've successfully kidnapped Miss Liberty!

Debriefing

Marshal Blitz was right about you, Character. You made that last operation look positively effortless. And you made our enemies look like fools. As Marshal Blitz predicted, Manticore and his team are trying to keep this quiet. If it were to get out that Manticore failed and we had Alexis, the US government and their heroes would stop at nothing to get her back.

Which would, of course, force our hand into launching every missile we have at Paragon. Now, wouldn't that be a shame?

Wait... hold on.

... Hmph. Looks like we have a catch in our plan.
