Level 10-14
I'd like to introduce you to Dr. Dmitri Krylov. He was a metahuman researcher in the Soviet Union before it collapsed. He came to the Rogue Isles in order to continue his work. Some of his connections can still get him Technology and Science Enhancements.
He's a brilliant researcher with flexible morals. All in all, a valuable contact.
Have you met Dr. Shelly Percey? Technically, she's not a real doc, since she got kicked out of medical school for, shall we say, unorthodox techniques. But she's been using that title since she's been here. She's deeply interested in super powers, both natural and artificially created. She can give you some good tips on the Goldbrickers. She's got a lot of connections in the medical community, which get her Mutation and Science Enhancements.
Shelly's a bit strange. Scary, even. Sometimes I think her thirst for knowledge has made her a little insane.
Have you met Peter Themari yet? Well, you should count yourself lucky. Themari's the nastiest old soul Cap au Diable has ever known; even being in his presence is a little sickening. Still, he knows a lot. He could give a boost to your career. And he can get his hands on Mutant and Magic Enhancements, if that's what you need.
You can learn a lot from Themari, so long as you don't make the mistake of trusting him.
Level 15-20
Marshal Brass is the head of all Arachnos forces for Cap au Diable. He works directly under Dr. Aeon, and rumor has it, isn't too happy about that fact. He might have some work for a freelancer like you. He can get you all the Technology and Natural enhancements you need.
The Marshal is taciturn and gruff, and not known for much of a sense of humor. Considering that he has to spend most of his time cleaning up Dr. Aeon's messes, it's a wonder he's even that personable.
You know man calls himself the Golden Roller? Smart, this one. Always looking for talent. Is high profile troubleshooter for a high-tech gang called the Goldbrickers. He might have some profitable jobs for you.
Oh yes—he doesn't like being seen in person, but you can find him in his car. You want Science, Technology Enhancements? He set you up.
Golden Roller is high-class operator. Dosvidanya!
If you're interested in the arcane arts, you should really speak with Ashley McKnight. It's in her blood... literally. Her father is a member of a group called The Midnight Squad. She's been doing some work with him and the group for awhile now. Who knows what trouble she's getting into.
She's over at the University in Cap au Diable. Hope you find what you're looking for.
This may be scraping the bottom of the barrel, but I know this guy named Willy 'Dealer' Wheeler. He likes to think of himself as a big time player, but he's really small time. Still, he's been getting some big leads as of late, and might be worth checking in to. Tell you the truth, I'd like to see the two of you working together. It might prove entertaining. Willy may be a joke, but at least he can get his hands on Mutant and Magic Enhancements.
If you can tolerate him, he might provide you with some good leads.
Information
Broker
Boris was a high-ranking KGB officer in the old Soviet Empire. Rumor is that after the Cold War he joined up with Arachnos. If that's true, he must have displeased Lord Recluse because he now works the streets of Cap au Diable.
Wrong Broker
Vat are you doing here? I do not know you. Perhaps you are looking for Desdemona the Glint. I am Boris, from Siberia.
Too Low Level
Bah. You are tiny and unimpressive. Come back when you're Threat Level 10.
Initial contact
I am Boris. From Siberia. People call me 'the Russian' but I am Siberian, not Russian. Stupid people. You do not seem strong, but I vill give you chance. When I hear of heists I vill put message in paper. You come to Boris and ve vill discuss split. Da?
Greeting
- I know nothing. Come back later and ve vill share some vodka and discuss other opportunities.
- Beat it. I have nothing for you now. I vill call you ven I hear something, da?
Too Busy
There is a Siberian proverb that says a man should not drink two bottles of vodka at once. Come back when you are not so busy and ve vill discuss business.
