Briefing

Greetings, Character. I hope you appreciate the gravitas of our mission. Too often humanity squanders its potential on the petty and the inconsequential. Even my own past is one quixotic venture after another. I was bellicose and prone to conflict. In a manner of speaking, those times are well past me, but in a very real way they now surround me.

You see, I was key to this world's destruction, a destruction that saw the rest of the universe crumble in its wake. I always knew my methods were heterodox, but I had no idea the damage I would cause. Now I return to correct my mistake, make amends for my past, and mend time itself.

The question I put before you, Character, is: would you give yourself to Ouroboros?

Editor's Note: This story was originally published in issues #10 - 12 of the City of Heroes comic book. Enjoy.

Mission Acceptance

Very well, Character. There is a man of your time, shrouded in mystery and deception, born from strife with a skill for death. He walks a line that is neither good nor evil, yet divergent from both. This man is put in question, his loyalties tested and his beliefs challenged. He sways leaders to war, bringing the most powerful forces of your time into direct conflict.

Humanity, oblivious and unconcerned, did not witness this event, but were once again unknowingly pulled away from the brink. However, for Ouroboros nothing is obfuscated. There are merely events we have yet to focus upon. I would like you to focus on this 'Man of Conflict'. Observe, even aid him in his path. We know very little about what happened, but my hypothesis is that a man of this cliber will play a crucial role in the coming storm.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Find the man divided through the Pillar of Ice and Flame. Follow his path, for it is a path of either utter salvation or complete decimation.

Mission Objective(s)

Stepping through to this time and seeing Manticore, you remember back when Manticore was kicked out of the Freedom Phalanx by Statesman. This must be when you are.

  • Investigate this 'Man of Conflict'
    • 2 Raid Leaders to Defeat

You aided Manticore in his path against Arachnos.

Primary Enemies

Arachnos

Notable NPCs


Bug! This mission is currently missing the second Arachnos Raid Leader.

NPC Text

Manticore:

When discovered: "Did Statesman send you, Character?"
: "I don't have time for this."
: "I'm picking up coded Arachnos messages."
: "We need to find out what they're doing in Croatoa."

Arachnos Raid Leader:

Combat Start: "Ah, perhaps this mission wasn't a waste of time after all."

Clue
The Jade Spider

The Arachnos Raid Leader you defeated in Croatoa let slip something about a Jade Spider. However, even after further questioning with the aid of Manticore, you were unable to get more information regarding it. What is Lord Recluse planning?

Trading Spaces
Part Two

Briefing

Manticore has left the Freedom Phalanx for reasons that are currently irrelevant. Yet, he still continues to fight what he considers to be the good fight. Go to him. Find out what he's doing and why.

Mission Objective(s)

You learned from Manticore, that Arachnos also planned an attack on Striga.

  • Fight Against Arachnos in Striga
    • 3 Raid Leaders to Defeat
    • 20 Arachnos to Defeat

You've aided Manticore in his path against Arachnos.

Primary Enemies

Arachnos

Notable NPCs

NPC Text

Manticore:

When discovered: "You can tell Statesman I'm not coming back."
: "He made his decision."
: "I made mine."
: "Now, let's get to work."

Bane Spider Commando:

When approached: "So far so good. Clear for now."
Combat start: "Excessive force is permitted and encouraged!"

Arachnos Raid Leader:

Combat start: "There they are! Go. Go. Go."

Ambush! After defeating the Arachnos Raid Leader, an ambush of Arachnos Soldiers will appear.

Bane Spider Commando:

When approached: "If anyone gets through here, it's on your head. Got me?"
Combat start: "Breach!"

Arachnos Raid Leader:

When approached: "Keep your eyes open."
Combat start: "When I return with your head, Lord Recluse is sure to give me a promotion."

Clue
Narcotics Shipment

During your battle with Arachnos in Striga, you didn't notice what was in all those crates around you. It wasn't until afterwards when Manticore was covering the crime scene did they stand out.

They're crates full of pharmaceutical grade chemicals. Manticore's analysis shows that they're used in most prescription anti-depressant medication. 'But it's in its purest form,' Manticore tells you. 'Uncut and undiluted.'

What would Lord Recluse want with heavy grade mind stimulants?

Trading Spaces
Part Three

Briefing

You need to find Manticore in Kings Row. He is getting closer to revealing the truth behind his motivations and his connection to the Jade Spider.

Before you leave, I want you to be aware of my gratitude.
