Information

UNSF Deprogramming Specialist

Petty Officer Laura Lockhart has gained a reputation for being the top anti-5th Column resource the U.N. has at its disposal. She has spent most of her time deployed in Paragon City, where the Column's influence is the greatest. Known as one of the few people that have managed to break former recruits of the Column's indoctrination process, Laura has pioneered new interrogation methods that are now used the world over.

Initial Contact

The young woman seems a bit startled at your approach, but composes herself in time to greet you.

Hi there! Thanks for responding so quickly. I keep forgetting how fast you Hero-types are. Petty Officer Laura Lockhart, UNSF Social Psychology Division. It's a pleasure to meet you, Character.

Laura extends a hand towards you.

Greetings

Ready for the next operation, Character?

Part One: Net Victory

Briefing

Alright. The first thing we need to do is to try to get a bead on what, exactly, is causing the 5th Column to become so active in this region.

My intel team has been tracking their comm traffic, but it's encrypted. We can't figure out what they're saying, but we CAN figure out who's talking to whom - and we've located a hub of recent activity.

If we can get our hands on their encryption codes, we might be able to get the inside info we need.

  • I'm guessing that's where I come in.

Well, sort of. I've already made the recommendation to another local hero recruit, goes by the name Leon. He's got an infiltration mission underway. I think he can handle himself in there, but that's only based off his record.

In the interest of being safe, and of coordinating your efforts, I thought you might want to provide some backup.

Unnecessary Solicitation

It looks like Leon is still in the field. He could probably use your assistance.

Mission Objective(s)

You encountered the bodies of 5th Column guards outside the entrance to the base. It appears Leon doesn't believe in taking prisoners.

  • Infiltrate the 5th Column Base
    • Find Leon

Enemies

5th Column


Mission Objective(s)

  • Infiltrate the 5th Column Base
    • Talk to Leon

Leon glares at you irritably

As I'm sure you've overheard, I have this situation under control. I've taken out their commander, and most of the base's defenses. I doubt the remaining troops will put up much resistance.

Leon sighs.

But, I suppose having someone to watch my back isn't so bad. I'm Leon. What do I call you?


At this point, I don't think we're going to get any valuable info from this place. I recommend we with draw and search elsewhere.

  • We could bring their Commander in for interrogation...

He's not in any shape to be answering questions, Character, and neither are his troops. If you catch my meaning.

Leon's face goes hard, and he gestures to the motionless body of the nearby commander.

  • Yes, I see. That's... unfortunate.

you hear muffled shouting from the direction you came. It sounds like the column is getting reinforcements of their own.

  • I think it's time we let ourselves out.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Infiltrate the 5th Column Base
    • Escape the base with Leon

You managed to exit the 5th Column base relatively unscathed.


Debriefing They wiped the info? Damn! I was sure we'd get a lead on this one.

I don't why they would have wiped their logs, Character. That's not standard Column procedure. Either Leon took his sweet time reaching the main database, or something leaked.

Laura's face twists into a wry smile, and she cocks an eyebrow at you.

Its possible that my arrival in Paragon has drawn more attention than I expected.

Part Two: Wars of Old

Briefing

Mission Objective(s)

  • Stop the Fighting in Steel Canyon

Alright, Character. I've put together a few possible avenues we can pursue in this investigation, and I wanted to get your-

Laura stops herself short, putting a hand to her ear. You can hear muffled chatter coming from her earpiece.

Missed that last message, Central, please repeat.

As the chatter continues, Laura's eyes grow wide. She looks up at you, her mouth slightly agape.
We're going to have to cut off the planning discussion for now, Character. I just got a report of a massive Column operation near Overlook, and sounds like Council forces are mobilizing to meet them.

This is big, Character. If we don't nip that fight in the bud, it could spill out into the rest of Steel Canyon.

We'll get you and Leon transport to the area. I know you could probably get there yourself, but we'll need to coordinate our efforts if we want to minimize damage.

Once you arrive at Royal Overlook, I can help direct the two of you. I'll be working with my team at Central, so we should be able to pin down the hotspots and point you to them.

Let me know as soon as you're ready, Character. We can't afford to waste any time.

Part Three:On the Home Front

Misplaced Dialogue

Can't recall where this goes, typing it up for use later.

As you approach the display, you can see that a communications line has already been established. A distorted voice can be heard on the other end of the line.

-ome IN, damn you! What's going on over there? Where is the commanding officer of this facility? I have vital information that must be forwarded to-

[Place Filter] Calm down, I'm here.


The informant goes silent for a moment. When he speaks, the urgency in his voice has been replaced with a wary, cautious tone.

You're not my usual contact. What's going on? Why have I not been informed of this change?

The previous commander did not see the value in your advice. He has been... removed.

I can't say that I'm surprised. He spent most of his time threatening me with 'the wrath of the 5th Column' instead of listening to what I have to offer.

The tension in the informant's voice fades. It appears you've convinced him of your authenticity.

Well, you should know that there's been a... problematic development. The U.N. has gotten involved. I was able to control their movements for a time, but that's become impossible now. If you want to continue making headway against the Council, you're going to need to take action.
