Scary Monsters
Part: One

Briefing

I've been trying to nail down Arakhn's main bases of operation, and I think my informants have finally hit on one. It's located in Brickstown, and there's been heavy traffic reported there for the past few days. But here's the strange part: that traffic isn't all Council. According to my reports, Council members have been seen escorting Freakshow and stranger things into the base. We need to know what's going on there. We need to know now.

We need hard data on Arakhn's plans. I've never known her to do anything without a dark purpose in mind.


Mission Objective(s)

You hear a sound. Could it be... techno?

  • Learn Arakhn's plans

Deep within Arakhn's base, you have defeated a gangster with Nictus powers.

The Dark Freak
Deep within Arakhn's base, you defeated a creature most foul. The Freakshow gangster you encountered seemed to have the powers of a Galaxy soldier, powers that, as far as you know can only be gained by the infusion of a Nictus fragment into the host.

Debriefing

A Freak? With Nictus powers? That's strange. Strange and terrifying. With any luck, this base was performing isolated experiments.



Defeat the villains and search for clues

Scary Monsters
Part: Two

StoryArc Scary Monsters

Briefing

You recall that strange Freakshow gangster you battled in Arakhn's base? The one with the Nictus powers? Well, I was hoping we'd seen the last of them, but it seems that hope was in vain. I've learned that a group of Freakshow are inhabiting a Council base over in Brickstown. I need you to get over there, defeat all the villains you find, and search for clues. We have to find out if Arakhn has any more of these Dark Freaks squirreled away somewhere.

I'd like to assume this is just a lark for Arakhn, an experiment merely for the sake of curiosity. I'd like to, but I can't. I think this is the start of something big.


Mission Objective(s)

A hyena-like laugh echoes off the walls.

  • Defeat all villains in base
    • Seek clues

You defeated the villains and found an interesting e-mail.

Notable Dialog

(before aggro)
Shadow Freak 1: Nictus fragments are like cybernetics for the soul!
Shadow Freak 2: Tell it!

(aggroed)
Shadow Freak: We got more than enough power to deal with you!

E-mail from Arakhn
This e-mail doesn't seem to have been sent yet. It reads:

'My friend:
'The initial tests on the Freakshow seem to be going as planned. With your approval, I will be proceeding to Stage Two.
'Arakhn'

Debriefing

So, these Nictus-infused Freakshow are part of a larger plan. It seems that Arakhn is content with her efforts thus far, and is ready to push the project forward. I only wish I knew who she was writing that letter to. Whoever her partner in crime is, we'll have to root him out. If he has access to the same Nictus fragments Arakhn is using to enhance the Freakshow, he's as great a threat as she is.
