Information
Arachnos Arbiter
Arbiter Hawk rose quickly through the ranks of the Bane Spider corps due to his combat proficiency and keen sense for combat tactics. As a member of the Arbiter Corps, he has become infamous for running independent covert operations intended to maintain the stability of Arachnos, and has often been associated with reckless and dangerous assignments. While working for him, villains are often unsure of the exact reasons they are given their tasks, but they will always see eventually how his ends justify his means.
Wrong Alignment
I don't think it's safe for either of us to be seen talking to each other. Maybe if you were more like me I might reconsider.
Initial Contact
You look like just the person I need to talk to. Capable, smart, and always looking for an angle. You got a minute?
Greetings
Let's get down to business, Character.

Souvenir
The Amber Widow
You have kept the Amber Widow as a souvenir of the story you refer to as
The Widow in Red
Arbiter Hawk approached you to undertake the task of reuniting Lord Recluse with his long dead lover, Red Widow. He claimed to have knowledge of how to bring Arachnos back to glory and that Red Widow was the key. You were tasked with assembling the ingredients and finding the ritual that would bring her back from the dead, and in doing so gathered the Amber Widow, three Obols (ancient Greek coins), a bottle containing a dying breath, and the ritual itself.
Within the mountain where Lord Recluse and Statesman fought, Arbiter Hawk had constructed a summoning circle. It was at this circle that you performed the ritual to resurrect Red Widow, bringing her back from the dead. And come back she did, not with love in her heart, but hatred. Hatred for Lord Recluse and a passion to kill him where he stood.
You then learned that because you used your own blood to bring Red Widow back to life, your life force has been temporarily tied to hers. Coupled with the fact that Arbiter Daos has put a death mark on Red Widow, in order to protect Lord Recluse, it's only a matter of time before her death would bring about your own. Fortunately, DJ Zero, the proprietor of Pocket D, had a plan for you to make Red Widow fall in love with Lord Recluse all over again. The bow and arrow belonging to Cupid were key in bringing her out of her insane state. You were able to steal the bow from Countess Crey and the arrow from the Carnival of Shadows.
Armed with the bow and arrow of Cupid, you made your way to Grandville, dispatched several of Arbiter Daos' assassins and then was able to shoot Red Widow herself. When hit with the arrow she saw Lord Recluse and fell in love with him again. Unfortunately it seems that the leader of Arachnos was not calmed by being reunited with her, but was infused with even more motivation to take over the world, as now he has someone to share it with.
The Widow in Red: Part One
Briefing
Psst. Character. I've got a mission for you. One that, if we can pull off, will make the Rogue Isles stronger than ever! Paragon City and it's 'heroes' will once again fear the name Arachnos! Problem is, we have to keep this off the books for now, or else certain... individuals... in Arachnos will try to put a stop to it.
- If the pay is good, and the bad guys end up winning, I am all-in.
Just what I like to hear.
Back in the day, there was an Assassin known as Red Widow. She and Lord Recluse were quite the item, but from what I hear she was killed during a fight between Lord Recluse and Statesman.
My sources tell me that they have seen a future where Arachnos can rise to unprecedented power and that future begins with resurrecting Red Widow. But first we have a couple of things needed to perform the ritual needed to bring her back. Fortunately, the Circle of Thorns has a copy of the ritual we need in one of their libraries I've been keeping tabs on.
In addition, we need you to get the following items: the Amber Widow, three ancient obols, and 'a dying breath.' Go and see Virgil Tarikoss in Cap au Diable about the obols, Mr. Bocor in Port Oakes about the Amber Spider, and you can probably find a 'dying breath' while you are in Oranbega.
Obtain an obol from Virgil Tarikoss
Unnecessary Solicitation
You should see Virgil Tarikoss in Cap au Diable about getting an obol, whatever that is supposed to be.
Mission Objective(s)
- Obtain an obol from Virgil Tarikoss (in Cap au Diable)
Ah, I've heard of your exploits, Character. What can I help you with?
- Tell me about obols.
- Obols? In magic they are commonly used in rituals that involve death and the afterlife, as Charon the ferryman to the underworld, would take an obol as payment to ferry a soul to the afterlife.
- What is an obol?
- An obol, or obolus, is a name for an ancient Greek coin.
- I need an obol.
- You need an obol? Planning on dying sometime soon I assume? I can help you out, but tell me, exactly what are you planning on doing with said item?
- I need an obol for a resurrection ritual.
- Good unknown / Madam, a single obol is used to pay Charon to take you TO the afterlife. If you want the trip to be a 'round-trip' I would suggest procuring multiples. How many souls are you planning on resurrecting?
- One
- I see, then you would need two obols, one to send Charon across the river Styx and one to bring him back with the soul in question in tow. Is the soul expecting to be brought back?
- No.
- I don't believe so.
- Then might I suggest a part of you take the trip as well, and for that you will need a third obol.
- Two
- Figured out you need to convince the subject to come back to the land of the living, did you? You'll need to send part of yourself in the ritual, and for that you'll need a third coin to ensure you make the return trip as well.
- Then I will need three obols.
- Excellent! Here you go, three obols. This should do well to bring back your friend, as long as they are willing to be brought back. A few souls prefer the afterlife to what they had here on Earth.
- Thank you.
These ancient Greek obols, or coins, are what is used to pay the boatman Charon to carry your soul across the river Styx to the afterlife. Three of them should buy passage to the underworld and then a return trip for you and a... guest.
Obtain the Amber Widow from Mr. Bocor
Unnecessary Solicitation
Go and see Mr. Bocor. They have the Amber Widow, and may be willing to part with it.
Mission Objective(s)
- Obtain the Amber Widow from Mr. Bocor (in Port Oakes)
The Amber Widow, yes? Yes, this particular piece is over one million years old.
It is amazing, wouldn't you say? An innocent black widow spider, minding its business crawling across the surface of a tree, perhaps to find a new home to spin her web, when she finds herself stuck in the sticky sap. She's engulfed over the next day or so, trapped in a state that is neither alive nor dead. As the sap hardened, it fossilized, only to be uncovered a million years later by an archaeologist and acquired by me. I assume, Character that your intentions for this are for personal gain? Yes? Then remember who gave this to you, no questions asked.
This black widow spider was trapped in amber nearly a million years ago. It is perfectly preserved in a state between life and death. It is the perfect catalyst for the resurrection of the woman known as the Red Widow
Gather the final ingredients
Unnecessary Solicitation
You need to get the last two ingredients.
Mission Objective(s)
Oranbega, the ancient city that Paragon City was built on top of. In here the final pieces of the ritual lie.
- Gather the final ingredients
- Find a Dying Breath
- Locate the Ritual
- Defeat the Librarian
With the breath and ritual in hand, you are ready to move on to the next step.
There is a seemingly empty bottle, sealed with wax, labeled 'Final breath of Charles Brant, May 1st, 1997'
One of the most powerful reagents in a resurrection spell is the final breath of a sentient being. Often faked, and incredibly difficult to mass-produce, this ingredient alone holds the key to bringing someone back from the dead.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- The Librarian (Circle of Thorns The Librarian)
Complicated and incomplete, this ritual seems to be 80% strict adherence, and 20% improvisation. You deduce that the proper way to perform the ritual starts with the placement of a single obol into a magic circle. From here things get sketchy. Some sort of catalyst is needed for you to successfully use the Amber Widow, something to give it purpose. Charon's return trip must then be paid for in obols. Finally the Dying Breath must make it's way into the circle to hopefully interact with the deceased. Then, and only then, will the ritual be complete.
Debriefing
Perfect. With these ingredients we can pull this off. I am glad you decided to help, Character.
The Widow in Red: Part Two
Briefing
Excellent, Character! With these gathered materials we should be able to bring Red Widow back to life. We have divined that the location of her death would be the best place to bring her back to life. I've dispatched mystics to set up the magic circle you will need to complete the ritual. Just let me know when you are ready.
- I just hope this plan works out.
You and me both. I know it's for the best for the future of the Rogue Isles. You have the ritual, but I understand the exactness of it is... vague. You're probably going to have to improvise a bit. One thing I can assure you though, is use the Dying Breath as the last thing, and only if everything else seems like it is working up to that point. Getting another one of those may prove to be... difficult.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Again, I thank you for doing this. Everything is for the glory of Arachnos.
Mission Objective(s)
Mystics have established a magic circle deep within the cave.
- Resurrect Red Widow
- Complete the ritual
Red Widow has been resurrected, but she seems to want to KILL Lord Recluse instead of reunite with him!
This is the magic circle that Arbiter Hawk had set up for you. This is where you will perform the ritual to bring Red Widow back to life. Performing the ritual wrong could have negative circumstances, but the ritual is incomplete and you will be forced to improvise. How do you want to begin?
- Start with the Amber Widow
- You place the Amber Widow within the circle, and nothing happens. No magic sparks, no gut instinct, just... nothing. Obviously this is not the way to start the ritual.
- Start with the dying breath
- As you contemplate opening the bottle containing a dying man's last breath, Arbiter Hawk's words ring in your memory: 'One thing I can assure you though, is use the Dying Breath as the last thing, and only if everything else seems like it is working up to that point.' You think better of it and try something else.
- Start with the obols
- You hold three obols in your hand. You can place one, two or all of them into the magic circle. What do you do?
- Place two obols in the circle.
- You gather two obols and place them into the circle. Your gut kicks in with that sensation you get when you overpay for something.
- Place the third obol in the circle as well.
- All three obols are placed within the circle. You have the overwhelming sensation that you are being ripped off.
- Place all three obols in the circle.
- All three obols are placed within the circle. You have the overwhelming sensation that you are being ripped off.
- Place one obol in the circle.
- The magic circle flares to life. The runes take on an otherworldly glow. You sense the boatman, Charon, awaiting a soul, a soul that has been paid for.
- Place the Amber Widow into the circle.
- You place the Amber Widow into the circle. You have an uncomfortable feeling that Charon is confused. He was looking for a living soul to ferry across the river Styx.
- Uncork the bottle containing the dying breath.
- As you contemplate opening the bottle containing a dying man's last breath, Arbiter Hawk's words ring in your memory: 'One thing I can assure you though, is use the Dying Breath as the last thing, and only if everything else seems like it is working up to that point.' You think better of it and try something else.
- Let's start improvising.
- You've fought enough magic slinging enemies in your time, you should be able to fake this, right? Some ideas pop into your head: using magic incantations you've overheard in the past, cutting yourself and bleeding into the magic circle, dance around the circle, chanting a magical mantra, or light some incense and see what happens.
- Start muttering some magic incantations
- You raise your hands into the air and begin chanting magical words you have overheard in the past. Suddenly you find yourself wracked with pain! It doesn't seem to subside when you stop chanting either! The glow of the circle dies out. You'll likely need to restart the ritual to progress.
- Restart the Ritual
- Dance around the circle, chanting
- You begin to dance around the circle, chanting a mantra you've heard used in the past.
- Suddenly you find yourself wracked with pain! It doesn't seem to subside when you stop chanting either! The glow of the circle dies out. You'll likely need to restart the ritual to progress.
- Restart the Ritual
- Light some incense
- You ignite a match and light some incense, other than adding a particular odor to the air, nothing magical happens. It seems you didn't mess anything up though, so you decide to try something else.
- Cut yourself and bleed into the circle
- Your blood hits the ground within the circle and seeps into the soil as if it were a sponge. Only a dark stain remains where your blood once pooled. The magic circle grows in intensity. Charon seems pleased and the ritual seems to move forward.
- Let's continue to improvise.
- That worked well, maybe you should continue down that path?
- Start muttering some magic incantations
- You raise your hands into the air and begin chanting magical words you have overheard in the past. Suddenly you find yourself wracked with pain! It doesn't seem to subside when you stop chanting either! The glow of the circle dies out. You'll likely need to restart the ritual to progress.
- Restart the Ritual
- Dance around the circle, chanting
- You begin to dance around the circle, chanting a mantra you've heard used in the past.
- Suddenly you find yourself wracked with pain! It doesn't seem to subside when you stop chanting either! The glow of the circle dies out. You'll likely need to restart the ritual to progress.
- Restart the Ritual
- Light some incense
- You ignite a match and light some incense, other than adding a particular odor to the air, nothing magical happens. It seems you didn't mess anything up though, so you decide to try something else.
- Maybe I should stop improvising, this is getting nowhere
- Place the Amber Widow into the circle.
- You place the Amber Widow onto the dark patch left by your blood. The fossilized sap seems to shimmer and begin to return to a liquid state, but still holds its shape. The Widow inside seems to be struggling to be freed.
- Place one more obol onto the circle.
- You place down the obol. You get the sense that Charon is confused. The magic circle begins to fade. Quickly: what do you do?
- Place the last obol onto the circle!
- With both obols in the circle you see the image of Red Widow begin to materialize. She seems to be gasping for air and none is coming. This is likely the last part of the ritual, what do you do?
- Time for some more improvisation!
- Uncork the bottle containing the dying breath.
- The cold of the air in the cave condenses the breath as it is released. The image of Red Widow stands before you, taking in a deep breath. As it does, she solidifies into a living, breathing, human being again.
Botching the ritual awards the Botched Ritual! temporary power.

Debriefing
I'm glad Red Widow didn't just kill you when she came back. Perhaps she was thankful for you bringing her back?
The Widow in Red: Part Three
Briefing
I have to apologize about that last mission, Character. I suspected it might happen, she might come back with vile hatred in her heart other than love, but it was a risk I was willing to take.
This does present a problem though. Arbiter Daos has issued a death warrant on Red Widow, so she cannot assassinate Lord Recluse. However since you used your own blood to bring her back, your mortal coil and hers are tied together for the time being. The blood-bond isn't going to fade any time in the immediate future. If Arbiter Daos succeeds at re-killing Red Widow, you're going to die as well.
- Me? I'm going to die?
Yeeaah, sorry about that. However if you can soothe Red Widow's emotions before that can happen then the blood-bond can fade over time and Daos will call off his contract. I talked with DJ Zero earlier and he think he has a plan that just might work, and has offered his help in this matter. I suggest you go talk to him and find out what he has planned.
Talk to DJ Zero in Pocket D
Unnecessary Solicitation
You should talk to DJ Zero. He's the man with the plan.
Mission Objective(s)
- Talk to DJ Zero in Pocket D
I see you've gotten yourself into quite a pickle. Resurrecting Red Widow in the way that you did bonded your life-force to hers. What made you think using your own blood was a good idea?
- Nothing else was working.
- Seemed like an obvious choice.
- I don't want to talk about it.
- Hmm, there had to be another way, but that is the past, let's talk about how we solve your current predicament. With Arbiter Daos putting a contract out on her, every cold-blooded assassin in the Rogue Isles will be hunting for her head. And if she dies, you die, for the time being anyway.
- So I heard.
- I do know a way to perhaps stack the odds more in your favor... have you ever heard of Cupid?
- Enlighten me.
- Cupid. At least that's what the Romans called him. Son of Venus and Mars. Has a bow that fires arrows that make you fall in love.
- Wait. What was that last part?
- Exactly. Cupid's bow, and especially his arrows. Get hit with that and fall madly in love with the next person you see. Now, get Red Widow into a room with Lord Recluse, fire this bow and BAM. Instant love connection, you don't even need to be back in two and two. That should mellow her out right then and there, rekindle that spark that was lost, and hopefully accomplish what you set out to do in the first place, reunite her with Lord Recluse.
- Where can I find Cupid?
- That... isn't relevant. Cupid is LONG since retired, but his bow and an arrow are in the hands of private collectors.
- Who? Who has these items?
- Vanessa DeVore, the leader of the Carnival of Shadows, is currently in possession of the only known 'Arrow of Love'. Apparently they scratch themselves with it, using it as an aphrodisiac in some of their wilder parties. And the bow needed to fire such a special missile is in the possession of one Julianne Thompson, who your world knows as the person running around under the guise of 'Countess Crey'.
- Julianne Thompson?
- Oh, you haven't learned that yet? Forget I said anything. It's hard to keep track of what is still secret in your dimension and what everyone knows.
- So I just need to get the arrow from the Carnival and the bow from Crey, got it.
- You're likely going to have to take these objects against their owners' wills.
- Got it, thanks.
- So I just need to get the arrow from the Carnival and the bow from Crey, got it.

- You're likely going to have to take these objects against their owners' wills.
- Got it, thanks.
- What do you mean 'for the time being'?
- Well blood magic is finicky. That kind of magic would be completely useless if the side effects were permanent in nature. No one would ever use it! The bound life-forces is only temporary, and should wear off in a couple weeks. Unfortunately you don't have weeks. Someone, or more likely a group of someones, will kill Red Widow long before that side effect wears off. Killing you in the process.
- Great, but what can we do NOW?
- I do know a way to perhaps stack the odds more in your favor... have you ever heard of Cupid?

Briefing
I see DJ Zero had you steal Cupid's bow and an Arrow of Love. Who knew he had such a nefarious heart, that Zero? Well with those items in your possession, you should be able to shoot her and get her to fall in love with Recluse before Arbiter Daos' men assassinate her... and you by proxy.
{{orange|The Cupid's Bow power will be given to you at the start of this mission.
Sorry for getting you into this, hopefully the outcome can make it up to you.
- Yeah, I am pretty peeved about the whole 'she dies, you die' thing.
Yes, it might take a couple weeks but the blood bond between you two will fade, but right now it's still going strong and you'll die if she dies, so you had better hurry and shoot her with that arrow while you both are still breathing.

Well, Lord Recluse has been reunited with his lost love. Time will tell if this truly does bring about a new era of supremacy for Arachnos.
You were instrumental in the resurrection of Red Widow, Lord Recluse's love from long ago. Only time will tell if this calms Recluse down or drives him to new heights of villainy.
