With regards to that new [[Crey]] technology coming out, we 'persuaded' the Crey scientist you kidnapped to tell us what he knows.

This is exactly the kind of technology my associates would like to get ahold of for themselves. | |||
The main Crey Industries laboratory developing this micro-circuitry is located in [[Paragon City]]. However, we need to secure a cargo ship to take to the mainland.

Story Arc
High-Tech Gold
Merit Rewards: This activity awards 10 Reward Merits.
Souvenir: Golden Hubcap
This is a golden hubcap given to you by Golden Roller after you helped him and the Gold Brickers steal some new tech from Crey in a tale called:
High-Tech Gold
The word on the street was that Crey has been developing some new technology that Dr. Aeon has been helping with. The Gold Brickers wanted a piece of that action, so they needed to snatch one of the Crey scientists on the project. You broke into one of Dr. Aeon's labs where the Crey scientist known as Dr. Cambrian was vising and kidnapped him, bringing him back to Golden Roller for interrogation.
The scientist revealed that a Crey laboratory in Paragon City was developing a new type of micro-circuitry that could be used in clothes and light armor. The Gold Brickers were very interested in getting ahold of this technology, and so commissioned you to secure transport to the mainland by clearing out a cargo ship infested by Lost.
Taking the transport to Paragon City, you made your way to the Crey building in Kings Row. Breaking into the facilities, you managed to secure the encrypted research data and the decryption device.
Kidnap Dr. Cambrian
Briefing
My associates have discovered that Crey Industries is developing a new technology that could come in quite useful. The first step is finding out where the device is. My sources tell me that a Crey scientist involved with the project is currently visiting one of Dr. Aeon's labs. Infiltrate the laboratory and kidnap Dr. Cambrian.
Mission Acceptance
Try to minimalize casualties if possible. We don't want Arachnos coming after us!
Unnecessary Solicitation
Quickly get to the Crey scientist before he leaves Dr. Aeon's laboratory!
Mission Objective(s)
The smell of ozone pervades the air
- Kidnap Dr. Cambrian
- Kidnap Dr. Cambrian
You kidnapped Dr. Cambrian!
Upon Exit of Mission
Dr. Cambrian is whisked away by some Gold Brickers!
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- (Arachnos Wolf Spider Huntsman) (Boss) (Guarding Dr. Cambrian)
- Dr. Cambrian (Hostage, must be escorted to entrance)
Debriefing
Fine work, Character. It seems that Wyvern came across the same information we did, and made a move to stop it falling into the wrong hands.
Excuse me while I 'persuade' Dr. Cambrian to tell us more about the new Crey technology under development.
Defeat Lost in cargo ship
Briefing
With regards to that new Crey technology coming out, we 'persuaded' the Crey scientist you kidnapped to tell us what he knows. Crey's working on some state of the art micro-circuitry which can be incorporated into clothes and light body armor. This is exactly the kind of technology my associates would like to get ahold of for themselves.
The main Crey Industries laboratory developing this micro-circuitry is located in Paragon City. However, we need to secure a cargo ship to take to the mainland. We've found one that's infested by Lost, but would be a good vessel otherwise. Go in and clear out the Lost from the cargo ship.
Mission Acceptance
Once the vessel is cleared of Lost, we can take it to Paragon City.
Unnecessary Solicitation
The cargo ship isn't cleared of Lost yet. Get on that.
Mission Objective(s)
Within the holds of this massive cargo ship, shadowy figures trudge along.
- Defeat Lost in cargo ship
You cleared out the cargo ship!
Enemies
Even though it isn't a stated mission objective, this mission cannot be completed until all enemies have been defeated.
Notable NPCs
- (The Lost Aberrant Rector) x2 (Boss)
- (The Lost Aberrant Eremite) (Boss)
Debriefing
Nice work, Character. We should be able to take the ship into Paragon City undetected.
Steal data and decryption key
Briefing
Listen up, Character, because this is the big score. That scientist you kidnapped revealed that a certain Crey lab in Paragon City has been developing some new micro-circuitry that my associates would like to get their hands on. We have a transport vessel to get us there since you cleared out that cargo ship.
Now the time has come to make our move on the Crey building itself. Break into the Crey office building and steal the micro-circuitry research data.
Mission Acceptance
My associates strongly desire this research data. Don't disappoint us.
Unnecessary Solicitation
You haven't left yet? I must stress the importance of the research data!
Mission Objective(s)
You make your way quickly to the Crey building. There are too many heroes in this town.
- Steal Data and decryption key
- Steal Research Data
- Steal decryption key
You stole the research data and decryption key!
Upon Exit of Mission
You board the cargo ship and make your way back to Cap Au Diable in the Rogue Isles.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- (Crey Chief Plasma Scientist) (Boss)
- (Crey Chief Cryo Scientist) (Boss, holding decryption key)
You found the research data.
You have downloaded the micro-circuitry research data from the Crey laboratory computer. However, it looks like it's encrypted.
You found the decryption key!

Shut down the D-Rifter
Briefing
Here's a big score. Ever heard of Dr. Carl Egon? He was a brilliant scientist that came to the Rogue Islands in the late 80's. Unfortunately he got on the wrong side of Randall Kirchoff, the governor of the island at the time, and the two became bitter archenemies. It ended when Egon created an interdimensional rift in the governor's watchtower and released a bunch of aliens that tore Kirchoff apart. Arachnos was forced to go in a and mop up the aliens, while Egon was captured and executed for treason.
It was rumored that Egon had a lab hidden somewhere in the Rogue Islands that contained his high-tech wizardry, including his infamous D-Rifter that caused the massacre at Kirchoff's tower. The problem was that no one was able to find it... until now. We think we've found it here in Cap au Diable, and the Gold Brickers want that technological goldmine! The D-Rifter has been shifting Egon's lab through dimensional space, and it's only a matter of time before it 'jumps' again. The Gold Brickers will go in to salvage the tech once the lab is secured.
You have 90 minutes to complete this mission.
There's been a lot of mysterious disappearances associated with Egon's lab. There's no telling what you may find in there.
