Level 20-24
There's a wise old man named Dr. Cheng who knows just about everything there is to know about the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. He has access to Training Enhancements.
Dr. Cheng is very wise, Hero. Pay close attention to his words.
Claire Childress is as much a part of the spirit world as our own. Some say she's flighty, but there are few in Paragon City who can provide more aid to one who seeks to battle the Freakshow or the Family. Claire has access to Training Enhancements.
Listen closely to her words; they may contain more information than you realize.
I'd love for you to meet Polly Cooper. She's a coordinator for the Civil Air Patrol, and she knows a lot about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Polly has access to Training Enhancements.
Miss Cooper is very skilled at her job and should prove to be a valuable asset to you.
I know a guy named Kevin Cordell who runs a small security consulting business. He's heard about you and would like to talk sometime about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Kevin used to be a hero, and he still has access to Training Enhancements.
Kevin is not easily impressed, but I think you will do just fine with him, Character.
I'd like you to meet Oswald Cuthbert. He's a probation officer and thus has a lot of contact with the sordid side of Paragon City. He often uses heroes like you to help him out with the Sky Raiders and the Council. Oswald can get you Training Enhancements.
Good choice, Character, and good hunting
Wil Eziquerra is an excellent reporter who specialized in stories on the Sky Raiders and the Council. His sources usually keep him stocked up with Training Enhancements.
Wil is going to be a great resource for you, Character.
I have to admit that Georgia Fields doesn't have the best reputation. No one really knows how she gets her information, but she's an excellent source on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. She is usually able to get her hands on training enhancements.
If you are careful, Georgia can be of great assistance to you.
I think you should meet Andrew Fiore. Not only can he sell you quality electronics, but he's got information about lots of less savory business deals. He's helped more than a few heroes, especially with information about the Freakshow and the Family. Andrew has a lot of sources that give him access to Training Enhancements.
Andrew is a businessman first, but it's in his best interest to keep the heroes he works with up to date on information.
I think you should talk to Vic Garland. He's a civil rights activist who's doing some important work against the Freakshow. He's also more than a little curious about the Family. He could really use your help. Vic has access to Training Enhancements.
Vic is uncompromising and fiercely loyal.
I've been asked to introduce you to Lt. Gosford from the Paragon City Police Department. He runs a special unit that is focused on bringing down the Sky Raiders and the Council. Gosford's connections within the department give him access to Training Enhancements.
Gosford is used to working with heroes. You will get along fine.
My friend Justin Greene has asked to see you. He's a coordinator for his local community watch group. He used to be a hero, so he knows how to help you clean up groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. Justin has access to Training Enhancements.
I think Justin will like you a great deal, Character.
If you can gain his confidence, Oliver Haak is a rich source of information on the occult. Don't be put off by his demeanor, Character, I know that you will impress him. He can really help you out against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Oliver has access to Training Enhancements.
Your actions will speak for you with Oliver.
I'd like you to go see my friend Piper Irving. She's an anthropologist working here in the city. She knows a ton about the obscure beliefs of the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Piper knows where to get Training Enhancements.
I am sure you will find Piper quite knowledgeable.
Detective Rondel Jackson is a great guy to talk to if you want the police perspective on groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. He's also the one to talk to if you need Training Enhancements.
Detective Jackson is a hardworking straight-shooter. He won't steer you wrong.
I have no doubt you will enjoy working with Professor Keller
Although he is a bit eccentric, Joseph Keller has a great deal of knowledge. He can greatly aid anyone who wishes to go up against the Banished Pantheon or the Circle of Thorns. Professor Keller has access to Training Enhancements.
If you ever have a computer problem or want a lead on some computer related crime, you should talk to Justine Kelly. She's a whiz at technical stuff and a bit of an online hero in her own right. Lately she has been focusing her attention on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Justine has access to Training Enhancements.
Justine is a very skilled young lady.
There's a noted weapons expert named Jake Kim who's in town trying to stop the spread of illegal weaponry. He is focusing his efforts on the Freakshow and the Family. Jake has access to Training Enhancements.
Jake has a very specific agenda, but he can still help you clean up Paragon City.
I've been asked to tell you that Lt. Colonel Hugh McDougal of the Pentagon's Hero Outreach Program would like to meet with you about the Freakshow and the Family. His military connections give him access to Training Enhancements.
This could provide excellent connections for you in the future, Character.
If you are looking for a partner to help you take down the Banished Pantheon, Andrea Mitchell would be a great choice. She is very dedicated and her connections are top notch. She also has a lot of interest in the Circle of Thorns. Andrea has access to Training Enhancements.
I have a good feeling about you and Andrea.
Melanie Peebles has the power to see things through her dreams. Her most recent dreams have been about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Melanie has access to Training Enhancements.
Do not dismiss Melanie's guidance lightly.
Have you ever heard of Wilma Peterson from the Department of Waste Management? She's one of the folks in charge of disposing of hazardous waste, like Rikti technology. You should stop by and see her sometime; she's got her eye on the Freakshow and the Family right now. Wilma has access to Training Enhancements.
Treat Wilma with respect and you will have a solid contact.
Cain Royce is strongly committed to his crusade against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. You would do well to have him as an ally. Cain can get you Training Enhancements.
Paragon City's evil-doers will soon feel the weight of this choice.
I think you should talk to John Strobel from the Citizen Defense Coalition. It's a group of ex-military and law enforcement officers that helps heroes like you from time to time. Right now their attention is focused on the Sky Raiders and the Council. John has a few sources that can get him Training Enhancements.
John is very patriotic and somewhat idealistic, but he's got a keen eye for trouble.
I've been asked to keep this very quiet, but someone from the CIA wants to meet you. Her name is Kirsten Woods and she knows quite a bit about the Sky Raiders. She also thinks there may be more to the Lost than meets the eye. As a CIA operative, Agent Woods has access to Training Enhancements.
Keep a low profile when you are working with Kirsten.
Level 25-29
I'd like you to introduce yourself to Ashwin Lannister from Hero Corps. They may be a for-profit organization, but they get the job done. He is currently focused on the Council and the Warriors. He has access to Training Enhancements.
Hero Corps doesn't always get the best press, but they are effective. Good luck, and keep your eyes open.
There's a woman named Laurie Pennington over at the Freedom Corps who'd like to meet you. Apparently, she's heard good things. She can provide excellent information about the Council and the Warriors. She has access to Training Enhancements.
The work that Laurie and the Freedom Corps are doing is exemplary.
Information
Reporter
Jim Bell is a veteran journalist who found that retirement just didn't suit him. Instead of staying home, Jim struck out on his own to report on the stories that interest him most. Paragon City soon became his favorite subject, and he developed an intense interest in the various gangs that fight for control of its streets. Jim loves to look for the human angle of every story, and he often interviews the families of gang members as well as their victims. In doing so, he gathers a lot of information, some of it off the record. If there's a problem Jim can't deal with in print, he'll call in a friendly hero to help him out. That is, of course, if that hero is willing to give him exclusive rights to the story.

Missions
Assist the Security Chief in Independence Port (24)
Briefing
Time to take a bite out of crime, Character. The Security Chief in Indy Port wants some help with those scumbags from the Family. Go lend him a hand.
Mission Acceptance
If you get a chance take a look at the Statue of Wavelength near the water. She was a speedster who fell in the Rikti War.
Assist the Security Chief
Unnecessary Solicitation
Help out the Security Chief with those Family goons.
Mission Objective(s)
- Assist the Security Chief
Here's some information on the area. We've been having a lot of trouble with the Family, especially in Crey Cove and Bell Point. I really need you to lend a hand.
This is where many brave heroes defended the city against an invading space armada back in the 50's. Paragon City renamed the area Independence Port, in honor of the heroes who died in that epic battle. You'll see the big statue of Cassiopeia by the bridge; she was one of the famous heroes who died in that fight. It's a shame that organized crime runs the docks nowadays. The Family pulls all the strings here, despite the best efforts of law enforcement.
Keep peace in Independence Port
Unnecessary Solicitation
Deal with the Family for the Security Chief.
Mission Objective(s)
- Keep peace in Independence Port
- Defeat 20 Family
You have defeated 25 Family thugs.
Enemies
Debriefing
Nice job helping clean up a historic zone, Character! Template:Mission Intro Assist the Talos Island Security Chief Template:Mission Deliver Package to Stephanie Peebles
Get the Platonic Solids away from the Warriors (20-25)
Briefing
The Warriors recently got their hands on the Platonic Solids. They're ancient ritual tools of the Cult of Pythagoras, which practiced an abstract branch of magic based around geometry and geometric mathematics. A single solid is potentially capable of folding reality, time, and probability. I need someone to get the Platonic Solids away from the Warriors before they accidentally unfold space and time. You only have 90 minutes to recover the artifacts.
Mission Acceptance
There's a rumor that the Warrior leader behind those thefts is trying to revive the Pythagorean cult.
Unnecessary Solicitation
If the Warriors learn how to use the Platonic Solids, it could mean a lot of trouble. Get them out of their hands.
Temporary Power
I do have these for you, a set of Geometric Gauntlets
. They were made to allow someone to handle the Platonic Solids safely, but they have an additional use. They can temporarily fold space around an enemy, holding him in place.
Ranged, Foe Immobilize, -Fly
This Geometric Gauntlet creates a localized gravitational field strong enough to immobilize a single foe. The target can still attack, but cannot move. It is also powerful enough to bring down flying entities. There are 75 charges.
Mission Objective(s)
The grafitti on the walls has a strange geometric precision.
- Defeat gang leader and his crew (Timed, 90 minutes)
- 4 Platonic Solids to recover
You have defeated the Warriors and recovered the Platonic Solids.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Pythagoras (Warriors Slasher Elite)
The refracted depths of this crystalline solid are hypnotic. You have to pull yourself away and concentrate on the task ahead.
As you look through the facets of this crystal cube, you can see glimpses of other worlds.
Each facet of the 20-sided crystal reflects alternate versions of the last few seconds of time.
This eight-sided crystal is cracked and dark.
Debriefing
You make the hardest fights seem easy. The Platonic Solids are safe, and you managed it before the Warriors did any damage with them. Actually, my MAGI contacts tell me we were pretty lucky. The Octahedron was cracked centuries ago, and the most powerful Platonic Solid, the Dodecahedron, was lost in the destruction of the Library of Alexandria. Still, if they'd learned enough, the Warriors might have been able to make new ones. The city owes you again.
Go to Independence Port and take back some territory from the Tsoo (22-25)
Briefing
The Tsoo have been gaining a lot of territory in Independence Port, and it's causing a lot of problems. The port is Family territory, and every time the two gangs meet, it ends in violence. I need you to get over to Independence Port and take back some territory from the Tsoo. It could stop a lot of needless bloodshed.
Mission Acceptance
The Tsoo have been making headway in Bell Point and Wave Landing. Maybe you should start in those neighborhoods.
Unnecessary Solicitation
We could be looking at a lot of violent conflicts if you don't push back the Tsoo in Independence Port.
Mission Objective(s)
- Take territory in Independence Port
- Defeat 20 Tsoo
You have taken back enough territory from the Tsoo.
Enemies
Debriefing
The Tsoo are bound and determined to tread on every other gang's toes. Let's just make sure they don't leave a wave of destruction in their wake. Template:Mission Common Go to Talos Island and cull the numbers of the Tsoo Template:Mission Common Hit the streets and defeat a few Warriors Template:Mission Common Hit the streets and take on a few Tsoo
Investigate the meetings between the Warriors and the Tsoo (20-25)
Briefing
The Tsoo and the Warriors have been meeting all over the city for the last few days. The strange thing is that we haven't seen any violence. Those groups are planning something, and I want to find out what. I need you to investigate the meetings between the Warriors and the Tsoo.
Mission Acceptance
Be ready for anything in there.
Bust gang leaders and their crews
Unnecessary Solicitation
I'm counting on you to figure out what's going on between the Tsoo and the Warriors.
Mission Objective(s)
You hear the sounds and scuffles of combat, but they lack any real urgency.
- Bust gang leaders and their crews
On one of the defeated Warriors, you found an invitation to a tournament between the Warriors and the Tsoo.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- None
This spartan note is an invitation to a tournament between the members of the Warriors and the Tsoo. It lists several locations and times, including an island known to be occupied by the Warriors. It states that the prize is a treatise on hand to hand combat written by Alexander the Great.
Defeat the combatants
Unnecessary Solicitation
So, this was all about a tournament between the Warriors and the Tsoo? It may be a good idea to put a stop to this. If one side doesn't like the way it ends, it could escalate beyond a mere competition.
Mission Objective(s)
The air rings with the sounds of men cheering on their favored fighters
- Defeat the combatants
- 6 battles to stop
You have stopped the tournament between the Warriors and the Tsoo.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- None
This papyrus scroll is written in Greek. It details several advanced techniques for hand to hand combat.
Debriefing
Breaking up that tournament probably saved lives in the end. Neither the Tsoo nor the Warriors really know how to lose gracefully. The real shame is that they couldn't put their strength to better use, like you do. So, just in case no one's said it recently, thank you, Character. On behalf of all Paragon City, thank you.
Recover the stolen artwork from the Tsoo (20-25)
Briefing
An exhibit of artwork by the painter Jessica Frank has been stolen. I've learned that the Tsoo were behind it, and they have the art stored in a warehouse. I need someone to recover the stolen artwork from the Tsoo.
Mission Acceptance
Jessica Frank's work isn't very valuable, but I've heard the theft was ordered by Tub Ci himself.
Unnecessary Solicitation
You need to recover that stolen artwork before the Tsoo can sell it.
Mission Objective(s)
The crates that line the walls are probably full of stolen goods.
- Defeat art thief and his crew
- 4 paintings to find
You beat the Tsoo and recovered the stolen art.
- The name of the painter can vary. Known names: Werner Dietrich, Jessica Frank, Ezekial Kadahti, Lupe Luz, Chakaday Udrie.
- The name of the painting series can vary: Known names: Darkest Hubris, Endless Night, Mystic Dreams.
- The name of the boss can vary. Known names: Crazy Phoenix, Fire Lion, Iron Reaver, Iron Web, Mad Thunder, Shadow Hand, Storm Strider.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Fire Lion (Tsoo Fire Dagger)
This painting of a mist shrouded, alien landscape gives you the creeps.
This painting shows a twisted, ghost-like creature.
This painting of a nightmarish landscape makes you ill at ease.
This disturbing painting shows two strange, unearthly creatures locked in combat.
Debriefing
Wow, look at this painting! Is that a Tsoo ancestral spirit? Yes, look at the exhibit tag. It actually describes the process for summoning such a spirit. No wonder the Tsoo wanted to keep these paintings from being displayed!
