Kip Cantorum was a Science origin hero contact in Galaxy City. After the destruction of Galaxy City in Issue 21, Kip Cantorum was "rescued" and relocated to Atlas Park, but he's no longer a contact.

Introductions

Contact Introduced By

Level 1-4

Level 5-9

Contact Introduces

Multiple contact options
I have a couple friends who might be able to help you.
Single contact option
There's someone I want you to meet.

Level 5-9

You should think about talking to Detective Jose Brogan. He's pretty intense, but he's a great cop and a good person to know if you are looking for information on the Lost. His beat is Atlas Park.

Detective Brogan will let you in on some interesting cases.

Have you ever met Paula Dempsey? She's a real pistol and has a great deal of information on the Clockwork. You'll like her, and I'll bet she'll like you as well. Paula hangs out in Kings Row.

Paula has high standards, but I have no doubt you will live up to them, Character.

You should talk to Maurice Feldon some time. He keeps track of anything that's going on in the science world. He's particularly interested in the Clockwork King. Maurice's company is in Galaxy City so you can usually find him there.

Maurice may be a little reckless, but he is very intelligent and he means well.

I'd like you to meet Ron Hughes. He's a reporter, and lately he's been interested in the Skulls. Ron's magazine is located in Kings Row, so that's where he can be found.

Ron believes that science should be used for the good of all.

Juan Jimenez is a great photographer, and he's always got his ear to the ground. You should talk to him and see if he's following any big stories on the Skulls. Juan is currently covering a story in Kings Row.

Juan is always eager to help, and he knows where the action is.

Vic Johansson's good police. He'll steer you towards some interesting opportunities involving the Lost, and help smooth things over with law enforcement. His beat is Kings Row.

Vic is good people, Character. You will enjoy working with him.

Tony Kord is a good person to know. He knows what's happening in the city, especially where the Clockwork are concerned, and he'll often suggest solutions. Tony's company is in Atlas Park, so he usually hangs out there.

Deal honestly with Tony if you want his help.

You should consider introducing yourself to Laurence Mansfield. He is one of the more personable county coroners. He can be a very helpful resource on the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. He is located in Atlas Park.

Mansfield has a strange sense of humor sometimes.

There's an EMT named Paco Sanchez who'd like to meet you. He's not only great at his job, but he also works well with heroes, tipping them off whenever he sees something interesting going on with the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. Paco can be found in Atlas Park.

Paco primarily cares about saving lives.

You should introduce yourself to Genevieve Sanders. She's a pharmacist with a heart of gold who does a lot of community work, and she loves to help heroes against the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. Genevieve is near the hospital in Kings Row.

She is one of the nicest people I know.

There's a young reporter named Linda Summers who you might enjoy chatting with. She's always pursuing some crime related story, especially stories dealing with the Skulls. Linda's latest scoop has her in Kings Row.

Linda responds well to directness and fair treatment.

There's a detective who you should meet. Rachel Torres knows all about the happenings on the streets, and can probably give you good leads on the Lost. She can be located in Atlas Park.

Detective Torres is tough and efficient; you might learn a thing or two from her.

Level 10-14

I'd like you to go and talk to my friend Tristan Caine. He's an environmental activist who keeps a close eye on everything that might impact the city's welfare, including criminals. He might have some good tips for you on the Vahzilok. Tristan has a lot of political connections, so he keeps near the city's center in Skyway City.

I suggest you see if Jill Pastor from the FCC has anything for you. She's always looking for heroes to help her out with the Vahzilok. Jill's offices are in Skyway City.

Jill is very serious about catching the bad guys and is willing to give valuable info to any hero who can get the job done.

There's an EPA investigator named Kyle Peck who's known for working well with heroes. I'm sure he'd be happy to help you out as well, and, more importantly, I think you could help him against the Vahzilok. Kyle's connections keep him in Steel Canyon most of the time.

Kyle is fiercely dedicated. As long as you show commitment to helping Paragon City, you will have a strong ally.

Information

Electrical Engineer

Kip Cantorum has a reputation as one of the more inventive engineers in Paragon City. He loves to tinker, and he has recently made quite a name for himself by converting technology seized from villains into harmless children's toys. He works closely with many of the city's heroes, who often give him recovered items in exchange for tips about what's going on in the city's technical community.

Prior to Introduction

Sorry, but I'm swamped. Maybe Active Contact has a minute to chat.

Initial Contact

What can I do for ya?

Greeting

  • Have I got a mission for you!
  • Hi! Ready to stop some bad guys?

Too Busy

Whoa, Character! Better clean out some of that backlog before you go looking for more jobs.

Too Low Level

I'd like to give you a job, Character, but not until you reach Security Level 5 / 9.

No More Missions

  • Time for you to find a new fix-it man, my friend.
  • If you're looking for work, you'll have to ask one of your other contacts.

Store

You are my kind of hero, friend. I've got some new gadgets you should check out. You need something, just call.

I think it's time for me to trust you all the way. You should be equipped with all the latest tech.

Missions

Stop the Vahzilok from stealing bodies (5-14)

Briefing

We've gotten reports of a strong Vahzilok presence in the sewers. They are using them to access the mortuary and steal corpses. Will you stop the Vahzilok from stealing those bodies? Paragon City's fallen citizens deserve better than this.

Mission Acceptance

The sewer entrance is marked on your map. Watch out for the Vahzilok called Boss Name.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You have not stopped the mortuary thefts.

Mission Objective(s)

The smell of fresh corpses makes it obvious that you have found Boss Name's lair.

  • Defeat Boss Name and his minions

You have defeated Boss Name, stopping any further thefts from the mortuary.

Enemies

Vahzilok

Notable NPCs

Editor's Note:
  • The boss name can vary. Possibilities are: Digger, Harvester, Patchwork, and Stitcher.
  • Stolen Corpses: During this mission you can find some corpses stolen by the Vahzilok. Each corpse recovered will net you some Influence and perhaps an Enhancement or Inspiration. There are 15 stolen corpses in this mission.

Debriefing

The mortuary reports that the thefts have stopped. Great job, Character!

Hit the streets and defeat as many Vahzilok as you can find (5-14)

Briefing

My sources have been reporting a strange trend in the latest round of Vahzilok kidnappings. It seems they're targeting particular individuals! I want you to hit the streets and defeat as many Vahzilok as you can find. Maybe we can figure out who they're targeting and why.

Mission Acceptance

You should look for Vahzilok in Kings Row or Steel Canyon. Those areas have been hit particularly hard.

Unnecessary Solicitation

I need you to defeat a few more Vahzilok.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Learn about kidnapping targets
    • Defeat 10 Vahzilok

On the last Vahzilok you defeated, you found a list of names.

Enemies

Vahzilok
Clue
List of names

You took this list of names off a Vahzilok you defeated. It may enumerate the Vahzilok's next few kidnapping targets.

Debriefing

Yes, several of the people on this list have been reported missing. I'll warn the others right away! We'll have to look for a connection between these people, Character. This could be a big clue to Vahzilok's future plans.

Go to Kings Row and stop the Vahzilok kidnappings (5-14)

Briefing

Kings Row has been bearing the brunt of the latest Vahzilok kidnapping spree. I need a hero who can get to Kings Row and stop the Vahzilok kidnappings. I don't want to hear about one more missing person case!

Mission Acceptance

The Gish has suffered a lot in this latest round of abductions. High Park has also seen a lot of activity.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Kings Row really needs your help, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Combat Vahzilok in Kings Row
    • Defeat 10 Vahzilok

You have stopped the Vahzilok from kidnapping the residents of Kings Row.

Enemies

Vahzilok

Debriefing

Thanks, Character. The people in Kings Row can breathe a little easier now.

See Kings Row Security Chief (5-6)

Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

I need you to get over to the Kings Row Security Chief right away. Follow your compass.

Mission Acceptance

There have been reports of some trouble with the Skulls in Kings Row, so he may send you after them.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Get over to the Security Chief as soon as possible.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

This briefing will help you. Now get out there and take out those Skulls. You might try looking for them in High Park or Freedom Plaza.

Clue
Kings Row briefing

A lot of hardworking folks live in Kings Row, home to most of Paragon City's labor force. The place was named after the King Garment Works, but that business went under over twenty years ago. Now, Kings Row is in the hands of all sorts of businesses, from small factories to various Crey subsidiaries. Unfortunately, those damn Skulls have taken over the streets. Some people say that those ghouls belong to some sort of death cult. Whether that's true or not, the Skulls are sure full of trouble.

Keep the peace in Kings Row

Unnecessary Solicitation

Kings Row is like a war zone right now.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Keep the peace in Kings Row
    • Defeat 10 Skulls

You have defeated 10 Skulls.

Enemies

Skulls

Debriefing

The security force sends their thanks. Good work, Character! It won't be easy to clean up Kings Row, but with your help, we have a much better chance of success.

See Perez Park Security Chief (7-9)

Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

The Security Chief for Perez Park asked for you by name. You should take that as a compliment. Go talk to him. He's located in Atlas Park near the gates to Perez Park.

Mission Acceptance

Perez Park is a dangerous place these days. Clearly the Chief thinks you can handle it, but take a couple of friends with you, just in case.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Don't let the Perez Park Security Chief down, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

Take this briefing seriously. I need you to deal with some of the Circle of Thorns mystics that have been plaguing the area. Try looking for them in Bettis Hills.

Clue
Perez Park briefing

Perez Park used to be a beautiful place to take your family for an afternoon picnic. Now, no one in his right mind wanders in there. Most of the area has been abandoned, largely due to the rumors of unholy Circle of Thorns rites taking place deep within the forest. The park is entirely overgrown, a perfect place for those strange mystics to summon up a demon or two. This zone is so deadly that even heroes shouldn't go in there in groups of fewer than three.

Keep the peace in Perez Park

Unnecessary Solicitation

Deal with the Circle in Perez Park!

Mission Objective(s)

  • Keep the peace in Perez Park
    • Defeat 10 Circle of Thorns

You have defeated 10 Circle of Thorns mystics.

Enemies

Circle of Thorns

Debriefing

I guess the Chief's confidence in you was well placed. Fantastic job, Character.

Talk to the Steel Canyon Security Chief (10-11)

Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

There is trouble in Steel Canyon. Get your assignment from the Security Chief.

Mission Acceptance

You will probably be dealing with the Outcasts, so be ready for anything.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Don't let the Security Chief down, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Security Chief in Steel Canyon

Briefing

Here is some info on the area. I need you to get out on the streets and contain the Outcasts. They can usually be found in Blyde Square or the Copper District.

Clue
Steel Canyon briefing

Steel Canyon is the financial district of Paragon City. Many national banks, insurance companies, and investment firms have their headquarters in this zone. In fact, so much money flows through Steel Canyon, Paragon City ranks among America's richest cities. Success has spurred the construction of so many skyscrapers that the place looks like a canyon made of concrete, glass and metal. The zone isn't without its dangers, though. The Outcasts have claimed the area as their own, and they've recruited a lot of kids with mutant powers related to the elements. That's what the Outcasts love best—beating down their enemies with the power of the elements.

Keep peace in Steel Canyon

Unnecessary Solicitation

Deal with the Outcasts for Security!

Mission Objective(s)

  • Keep peace in Steel Canyon
    • Defeat 10 Outcasts

You have defeated 10 Outcasts.

Enemies

Outcasts

Debriefing

Well done; those Outcasts are a powerful bunch. It seems the number of mutants in the city is increasing rapidly.

Talk to the Boomtown Security Chief (12)

Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

Lately, the Clockwork have been tearing Boomtown apart. Report to the Security Chief for that zone and he will tell you what to do.

Mission Acceptance

I don't know why they do this, but the Clockwork are becoming more of a menace every day. Watch out for the huge monster, Babbage!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Don't let the Security Chief down, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

Here is some info on Boomtown, Character. I need you to stop the Clockwork! You could start looking for them in Primer or the Cannonade.

Clue
Boomtown briefing

Baumton was the city's first marketplace, where tradesman and farmers went to sell their wares. After the Rikti Invasion, people started calling it Boomtown, because the devastation reminded them of a bomb crater. It's pretty dangerous. If I were you, I wouldn't go in without a few other heroes for backup. The place is infested with those Clockwork robots. They look like toys, but they cause plenty of havoc by stealing bits of machinery and metal from all over. Even worse, a giant clockwork monster called Babbage prevents any pacification of the zone. Be especially careful of him.

Keep peace in Boomtown

Unnecessary Solicitation

Deal with the Clockwork for Security!

Mission Objective(s)

  • Keep peace in Boomtown
    • Defeat 10 Clockwork

You have defeated 10 Clockwork.

Debriefing

We used to laugh at the Clockwork. Not anymore. Well done, Character.

Talk to the Skyway City Security Chief (13-14)

Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

The Trolls are rampaging again! The Security Chief asked for you by name. Find him, and get your assignment.

Mission Acceptance

These rampages are happening more and more. Something has to be done!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Don't let the Security Chief down, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Security Chief

Briefing

Take this and get on the streets immediately. Stop those Trolls! They've caused a lot of havoc in Vista Plaza and the Astral District.

Clue
Skyway City briefing

Back in the 1970's, there was a huge drive to create highways to relieve congestion in the city. No one would need to drive on the surface streets - instead, we would drive above them! So the city started building high spanning bridges everywhere, and Skyway City quickly turned into one big highway in the sky. Now this zone is home to a street gang that likes to camp out underneath bridges: the Trolls. These are thugs who've mutated, thanks to taking a bit too much Superadine. But watch out; the drug has given many of them inhuman strength and resistance.

Stop rampage in Skyway City

Unnecessary Solicitation

Deal with the Trolls for Security!

Mission Objective(s)

  • Stop rampage in Skyway City
    • Defeat 10 Trolls

You have stopped the rampage.

Debriefing

Good job today. There must be some link between Superadine and these rampages. The Trolls need to be cut off from their supply.
