• Doc Delilah

I know you met Doc Delilah already. She is totally amazing. She's smart, she's super-strong, and, well, she's enough to give a normal girl a complex. But she's really nice, too. She came out here because she wanted to explore the old hero bases and dig up, like, history and stuff. Anyway, she said she wanted to talk to you about something important.

Cool. I know that she thinks she found something big, but she's really gonna need help, I can feel it.

Information

Trouble-prone Teenager

The daughter of Wu Yin, owner of Yin's Market, Penelope Yin is a normal girl with a penchant for having strange things occur around her. Many of the heroes who had their bases in Overbrook prior to it's destruction had tales of strange things happening shortly after 'Perilous Penelope' swooped by on her scooter to drop off a delivery from her father's store. Now that the city has begun reconstruction in Faultline, Penelope returned with her father to help re-open Yin's Market. Shortly after their arrival, the local Clockwork began to protect Penelope from danger. No one knows why the Clockwork keep their silent vigil over her safety, and the Clockwork King has issued no announcements on the subject.

Initial Contact

Oh, man, did Jimmy Temblor send you? He and Ann, err, 'Fusionette' have been treating me like a little sister since before...

Everything...

Um, actually, I kinda could use some help. Well, not me, I mean. It's just that my Dad, he's been kidnapped!

Story Arc

Help Doc Delilah

Briefing

My Dad and I were both kidnapped from the store. I got away because the Clockwork helped me, but the Lost, they still have my Dad. I'm so worried about him, it hurts. I tried looking on my own, but if it weren't for the Clockwork, the Lost would have caught me. So I've been asking for help. I just got a call from Doctor Delilah Stein that she may have found something, but her call go cut off, and I know she's in trouble. Could you help her?

You are so awesome! Doc Delilah used to be a hero, too, but she's like, an archaeologist now. She's digging all around here looking for stuff, so she's been everywhere and talked to a lot of people. I asked her to keep an eye out for anything about my Dad, just in case. So of course, she gets cornered by some Vahzilok somewhere without cell reception. She's okay right now, but those Vahzilok guys are really scary. You better get her out of there.

Mission Objective(s)

Many old hero bases were lost when Faultline destroyed Overbrook. If Penelope's right, Dr. Stein was investigating one when the Vahzilok arrived.

• Rescue Doc Delilah
  • Lead Doc Delilah out

Supergroup database

This is some old data from one of the ruined superhero bases scattered throughout Faultline. It clearly shows that Bill Temblor, the secret identity of the villain Faultline, had a cover job where he worked with numerous heroes as an advisor on scientific and mutant investigations. Investigations where he often ended up foiling his supposed villainous co-conspirators like the Demon Digger and Psicurse. Apparently, Bill Temblor was such a good friend to the city's heroes that there are records of heroes taking care of his son, Jim. It doesn't seem to match the maniac who destroyed Overbrook at all.

Debriefing Jim Temblor

Doc Delilah found this? Weird. I remember this. I remember all of this. I remember my dad working with heroes, I remember being in hero bases. I don't remember him ever building an earthquake machine, and without Mom around I was almost always with him. This is how I reember it. But how can that be?

Oh, wait, that's my phone.

Hey, Penny.

Yeah.

Sure.

Yeah, Ann and I will be by later. Ok, bye.

That was Penelope. She Says that Doc Delilah told her something major. She wants to see you.

Hey! I totally owe you for all this, but it was really worth it. Doc Delilah had some big news. But I think I'm going to have to ask for your help again, if that's ok?

You're the best! I know you'll find my dad!

Hit the streets to get info from the Lost

Briefing

What Doc Dellilah found out was that those smell guys with the weird minds, the Lost? Well, she's talked to some of them, and she asked about what happened to my dad. They told her that they went after Dad and me on purpose. One of their big chiefs wanted us captured for something weird, I'm sure. Anyway, the guy they ordered to do it was one of their own named 'Muxley.' Doc said that Muxley's still in Faultline, but she doesn't know where. If you can find him, that's sure to lead to my Dad, right?

Thank you sooooo much! You are totally the best! I think the way you do this kind of thing is by 'Hitting the streets,' right?

This would be so much easier if those Lost guys were normal. But then, if there weren't so many of those weirdos around Dad, I could just talk to him. It's driving me crazy! I can toalk to my friend Imani in Kenya, and my friend Yuki in Japan, and we can all hear each other fine, but my Dad's somewhere in the city and I can't talk to him because those Lost guys mess everything up with their crazy! It's so unfair!

Mission Objective(s)

• Defeat Lost for Info
  • Defeat 10 Lost

One of the Lost you were fighting cracked, and told you where to find Muxley.

Muxley's location

One of the defeated Lost told you the location of Muxley, one of their leaders. He's hiding out in an abandoned floor of an old office building. He didn't know the address, but you can figure out where to go.

Mission Objective(s)

This building will probably be destroyed soon, but in the meantime strange things fester in the ruins.

• Find Muxley
  • Defeat Muxley

You learned where to find Mr. Yin!

'Then it called to us...'

After you defeated Muxley, he told you where you might be able to find Mr. Yin. He also told you why the Lost had tried to abduct the Yins in the first place:

'We came to the ruins first because the time is near, and we feel it in the waters here. But then it called to us. It wants to be used again. The ones marked by the Spider-Lord seek it for their master, and for their own desires. The pirates of the air seek it only because they know it is valuable. And we seek it to help bring about the new world. And when it comes to light, it will need a new master, a new source of power. The old man is only for control over the girl. There is a reason the Brain-in-Brass protects her.'

Debriefing

Yes! You found Muxley! Well, I know Dad wasn't there, but he did tell where to find him right?

Don't worry, Daddy, we're gonna bring you home soon!

You're the coolest! Hey, do you need a side-kick? No, forget it. My Dad would totally flip out.

Rescue Mr. Yin

Briefing

Now that we know where Dad is, the only thing left is to get him. This may be kinda rough, though. You will be careful, right? Or get, like a super-team or something?

I think it's going to be pretty tough in there. Just, like, be careful, okay? I wouldn't want to be all sad because I got Dad back but you got killed and stuff.

Oh, hey! That's an idea! Give me a second...

Okay, I asked the Clockwork King really nicely, and he's agreed to let you borrow some of the solders he has protecting me. It's really big step for him. I mean, he's kinda paranoid, sure, but deep down I think he's an okay guy.

YOU DID IT!

YoudiditYoudiditYoudidit!

Dad's home and safe and everything! You saved him! He's already getting the shop open, can you believe it? Oh, that's right, he wanted me to tell you that you can go in any time you want. But that's not important. Dad's home and he's safe, and it's all because of you.

Thank you. Thank you.
