Overview
Port of industry, port of corruption...
The roots of Independence Port go all the way back to the founding of Paragon City. As Paragon City continued to grow, Independence Port stood proudly as the premiere point of commerce on the eastern coast of the United States. This is the location where Atlas and several other heroes gave their lives in World War II when the 5th Column attempted to invade.
In the middle of the zone lies Valor Bridge, once a symbol of sacrifice, now a ravaged memory. Sadly, since Terra Volta has been overrun, Valor Bridge has become a no man's land filled with abandoned vehicles, transport containers and constant battles between the Tsoo, 5th Column and The Family.
The battle to keep the peace in this once-prosperous area is ongoing and will certainly require the attention of many Heroes to prevent Independence Port from becoming the latest part of Paragon City to fall to the forces of villainy.

Exploration Badges
You're always looking for new forms of entertainment, and it's said that the Mission Architect technology is entertainment in its purest form.
This is where workers in Terra Volta are air lifted in. From here, they're taken by several Longbow skiffs into the heart of the reactor.
More than one unlucky individual has met his end in this area of the 'Cargo Maze.' The Family is known for luring their victims into this area before 'icing' them. It's easy enough for them to get away with it, as not many heroes wander around this area.
The Family uses this area right in the shadow of Terra Volta to conduct various parties, and the occasional hit on one of their own. They've also been searching for secret entrances into the reactor, though so far they have been unsuccessful.
The Bell-Wave is the twin of the nearly destroyed Valor Bridge. Cynics say that the statue of the heroine at the end was built to inspire the bridge to be named after her, but the trend never took off.
Every member of Freedom Corps who works in this base is considered unlucky. The base is out-of-the-way from everything in Paragon City and has a long daily commute. Arachnos occasionally tries to spy on this base, but even they can't be bothered to come out this far from everything.
Crey had a facility in Independence Port for several years, but an industrial accident has permanently closed it.
The titanic hero Atlas fell at Valor Bridge, protecting the city from invasion.
Sister Psyche's greatest nemesis was the insane Malaise. When she finally apprehended him, she found a confused soul in search of release. Using her mental powers, she switched Malaise's dual personalities, bringing the benevolent one to dominance. Then she took him under her wing for observation.

You miss the monorails of Paragon City, but in the Rogue Isles it would just be too impractical.
You have spent your free time running a shop in Paragon City selling various wares earning you the Shop Keeper Day Job. Logging out in a store will earn you a random enhancement, upon each mission completion, for a short time.
You know better than to work retail in the Rogue Isles. Logging out in a store will earn you a random enhancement, upon each mission completion, for a short time.

Your expertise in surgery and understanding pain has earned you the Pain Specialist Day Job. Logging out in a Hospital will earn you a Regeneration Bonus, when you log back in, for a short time.
