Part Two: The Hands Of A God
Briefing
The Fire and The Flames
Part Two: The Hands Of A God
With Numina trapped in the Soul Catcher she has no choice but to obey your commands. Her secrets are now ours... or rather yours, master / mistress.
Now that you have access to Positron's Laboratory, you will need a means to actually handle and manipulate the Flames of Prometheus once you have it within arms reach. Legend has it that only the gods and titans could actually handle the flames. I have planned for this as well...
Mission Acceptance
David Odysseus Hill is a 'collector' of rare artifacts from around the world... many of which are magical in nature. In his possession is an artifact that fits our... your exact needs; The Fists of Vulcan.
Odysseus keeps these magical gauntlets stored within one of his shipping and recieving warehouses. These are places filled with ill-gotten treasures whose power ranging from questionable to godly.
The problem is that Odysseus and his Warriors are currently unengaged in any real gang wars, and so the majority of his forces are more or less conducting garrison duty over the various pieces of territory he claims to be his. You will need to draw his forces away from the warehouses so that you can slip in and steal the Fists of Vulcan before the Warriors can stop you.
If you could arrange to have Odysseus attack the Midnighters then you could eliminate two threats with one cunningly hurled stone. To do that, you will have to travel to Talos Island and speak to Odysseus on the matter.
Remember, even though he is a greedy man, David Hill is no idiot. Not only will you have to be shrewd in your dealings, but it would not surprise me if he tried to kill you for the Soul Catcher. It would be best that you do not mention it or Numina's current fate.
Unnecessary Solicitation
+++ Missing Information +++
Meet David Odysseus Hill
Mission Objective(s)
David Hill's office building looks completely legit. It isn't until you take the private elevator up to his office that you find any sign that the businessman is the head of the Warriors.
- Talk to Odysseus of the Warriors
- Defeat Odysseus's Challenge
- Talk to Odysseus again
You succeeded in convincing Odysseus and the Warriors to start a war with the Midnighters. While they are embroiled in conflict you can slip into Odysseus's warehouse and steal the Fists of Vulcan.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
Odysseus (Non-Combat Archvillain)
Well, well, well... Character. To what do I owe the honor of you gracing me and my Warriors with your presence?
- I want your help... With the Midnighters.
The Midnighters and I are currently at peace. What reason can you offer that I should sully that relationship?
- I stole one of their artifacts. If you're interested in buying I could steal more.
Odysseus raises a single eyebrow with practiced perfection.
Intriguing. A business offer from Character; a notoriously violent villain from the Rogue Isles, to me - David Odysseus Hill; an incredibly powerful businessman here in Paragon City.
I'm not buying this story of stolen merchandise. Why not tell me the truth?
- Fine. I have Mortimer Kal's daughter. The Midnighters want her back.
Now THAT I believe.
Very bold of you to go so far as to kidnap the daughter of one of the most powerful and reclusive wizards of our time. I assume he has not transformed you into a burning cinder because of the threat of his daughter's life being tied to your own?
- Something like that. I was hoping we could send them a message together.
Perhaps I should turn you over to them and cultivate their favor instead...
I give you this one chance to prove that that would be an unwise choice.
I present to you this challenge: Even odds. My Warriors versus you and yours.
- What?
At this juncture you have no say in the matter.
Warriors.
Kill them.
- Bring it! (Fight)
+++ Missing Information +++
Steal the Fists of Vulcan from Odysseus's Warehouse
Mission Objective(s)
The warehouse is dead quiet. If you play this right, he won't realize you stole The Fists of Vulcan until it is far too late.
- Steal the Fists of Vulcan from Odysseus's Warehouse
- Find the Fists of Vulcan
- Defeat Montague Castanella
- Defeat Mercedes Sheldon
- Defeat Exorcist
- Defeat Odysseus and take the Fists of Vulcan!
You stole the Fists of Vulcan off of Odysseus's battered body and left him alive. The Warriors will no doubt take care of their fallen leader rather than pursue you, buying you valuable time to escape!
It will be a long time before the Midnighters or the Warriors recover from that fiasco. Against all odds you laid low the leaders of two powerful factions in Paragon City and stole the hands of a god.
With the Fists of Vulcan and Numina's Soul you are on the verge of acquiring ultimate power!
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Odysseus (Archvillain)
- Montague Castanella (Hero)
- Mercedes Sheldon (Rogue, counts as Hero enemy)
- Exorcist (Vigilante, counts as Hero enemy)
![](/w/images/8/8d/EdLetter.png)
All Notable NPCs in this mission have special attacks that will flash a warning across your screen and change the lighting of the room.
Montague Castanella uses Radiance, which stuns the players (also Mercedes and Exorcist) and heals his allies (except for Mercedes and Exorcist).
Mercedes Sheldon summons Exorcist.
Exorcist uses Torment, which stuns Montague, but provides him and Mercedes with a 200% buff to Smashing/Lethal damage for about 10 seconds. (Note: Mercedes doesn't seem to have any Smashing/Lethal attacks, except maybe Brawl.)
Odysseus uses Vulcan Clobber, which does high damage, debuffs defense by 15%, and debuffs resistance by 20%.
![](/w/images/4/48/Balloon.png)
Odysseus: A most admirable display of martial cunning, Character. I salute you.
Odysseus: But did you really think that I would take your story at face value? That I wouldn't check your accusations out with spies of my own?
Odysseus: Mr. Wade was most helpful in uncovering the truth of your scheme. While my Warriors and the Midnighters hacked each other to pieces you were going to betray me!
Odysseus: I don't take lightly to betrayal, Character. But I do have a sense of honor... or was it sport? If you can defeat me and my Warriors, then the insult against me is dropped. Fail... and I'll introduce you to a little piece of history known as a Brazen Bull.
Odysseus: WARRIORS!
Crusher: HUA!
Warrior Chopper: HUA!
Warrior Slicer: HUA!
Hewer Elite: HUA!
Slasher: HUA!
Warrior Slammer: HUA!
Warrior Slammer: HUA!
Warrior Bruiser: HUA!
Odysseus: ATTAAAAAAAACK!
Debriefing
The Fists of Vulcan!
Mortimer Kal's eyes shine in amazement as he looks upon the mighty gauntlets that are fabled to have belonged to the god of the forge.
You have all the pieces now, mistess and time is running short. Darrin Wade of the Midnighters has learned of our dealings and is threatening to sell me out if I do not cut him in on our scheme. I say to hell with the man. Once you have the Flames of Prometheus it will be he who shall bow before me... I mean, you.
