Template:StoryArc The Tsoo Coup

Hit the streets of Talos Island and take down as many Tsoo as you can

Briefing

I'm worried about the Tsoo. My sources tell me those power hungry gangsters have some big plan in the works, but nobody seems to know anything specific. I think you should hit the streets of Talos Island and take down as many Tsoo as you can. Maybe one of them will give us a clue about their next move. When you're done clearing Talos, move on to Independence Port.

We're gonna need some solid stuff to go on, but I'm sure you can find it.

Mission Objective(s)

• Question Tsoo in Talos Island
  • Defeat 15 Tsoo

You've defeated enough Tsoo in Talos Island.

Tsoo conversation

One of the Tsoo you took down bragged:

'You cannot possibly stop all of us! The Tsoo are taking over very soon! Tub Ci is gonna run all of Paragon City, and there is nothing you 'heroes' can do about it!'

Mission Objective(s)

• Grill Tsoo in Independence Port
  • Defeat 15 Tsoo

On the body of one of the fallen Tsoo, you found a tube containing several sets of blueprints.

Blueprints

You found this tube on a Tsoo gangster. It containings blueprints to five buildings in Paragon City.

Debriefing

I don't recognize any of the buildings in these blueprints that the Tsoo gangster was carrying. We'll have to continue this line of investigation.

Take the blueprints to Warren Trudeau

Briefing

I know this guy in the FBI, Warren Trudeau. He might be able to ID the buildings the Tsoo are interested in. Take the blueprints over to Warren, won't you?

It's kinda scary how many blueprints are here. Looks like the Tsoo could be planning something big.

Mission Objective(s)

• Take blueprints to Trudeau

Debriefing Warren Trudeau

If you found these blueprints on a Tsoo gangster, they're probably planning a strike. I'll have someone at the bureau compare the blueprints to the city planner's files. If a match comes up, I'll let you know.

Debriefing

Thanks for getting those blueprints over to Warren. I'm sure he'll be able to ID the buildings the Tsoo are interested in.

Search the Tsoo base for the artifacts

Briefing

One of my sources called me with some disturbing news. It seems the Tsoo have amassed quite an impressive array of artifacts lately; it's the type of stuff the Outcasts and the Warriors go crazy over. Can you go search this Tsoo base for the artifacts? Thanks. I hear the leader of the base is called Copperhead. See if you can find out what he's plotting.

Warren hasn't yet been able to ID the buildings in those blueprints you found on the Tsoo. The minute I learn something, I'll let you know.

Mission Objective(s)

You hear the grunts and shouts of young men engaged in earnest battle. You may have stumbled into the middle of a gang war.

• Defeat Copperhead and his crew
  • Search for clues

You defeated Copperhead and uncovered the trap laid for the Warriors.

Documents

These documents detail a five-pronged Tsoo strike against the Family and the Warriors.

Notable NPCs

• Red Viper (Tsoo Lightning Blade)
• Copperhead (Tsoo Fire Dagger)

Debriefing

So there were no artifacts at that Tsoo base at all, just a trap for the Warriors? Sorry I got you mixed up in this, but I think that your presence prevented the Tsoo from gaining further ground. According to these documents you found, the Tsoo are trying to take down both the Warriors and the Family! We could be looking at a major showdown.

Stop the Tsoo from taking over all the gangs of Paragon City

Briefing

Warren Trudeau just got back to me. He's ID'd all the buildings in those blueprints you found on the Tsoo. Three of them are front companies for Family operations. The other two are over on Talos Island. They're empty right now, which makes them perfect meeting places for the Warriors.

It looks like the Tsoo are planning a major hit on both the Family and the Warriors. Get out ther and stop the Tsoo from taking over all the gangs of Paragon City!

See if you can get some more heroes to help you with this one. I am afraid that if the Tsoo are successful, Tub Ci will be mayor of Paragon City tomorrow.

Debriefing

To be honest, for a minute there I wasn't sure you could thwart the Tsoo campaign to take over the other gangs. Guess you showed me!

You did an excellent job today. If not for you, the Tsoo would have quickly established utter dominance over the streets of Paragon City. I heard through the grapevine that their leader, Tub Ci, ordered a hit on you. Don't worry, no one has been bold enough to step forward and take that contract. Not after the world of hurt you put on the Tsoo today.
