Mission:Max - The Face of the PPD

The Face of the PPD

Mission Acceptance

Good to see your morals as a hero won't get in the way of this. I should warn you about one last thing, Character.

Blue Steel sometimes patrols the area. Ever since the incident in Galaxy City, security around the prison has been upgraded tenfold. Even someone like you is going to have a hard time fighting Blue Steel alone. You might want to bring some pals along, should he show up.

We'll have a helicopter waiting on the roof of the Zig. Once you get Director 11, book it to the roof and we'll get him out of there.

Unnecessary Solicitation

The helicopter is waiting, Character. We're on a timetable, here.

PPD Awakened: Let's just hope it's worth the risk.

Hyper Advanced Heracles: Intruder detected. Character, classified as a hero. Reporting violation to authorities.

Director 11 Dialogue

Director 11: I wasn't expecting this. I assume Max was involved somehow and that the Knives of Vengeance have gotten out of hand. Let's go.

Ambush! After freeing Director 11, you will be ambushed by up to five groups of Paragon Police.
PPD Awakened: There's a breach, we can't let Director 11 escape!

50% Health:

Blue Steel: I represent the law in Paragon, Character! Maybe YOU don't care for it, but I do!

25% Health:

Blue Steel: I don't care if you're Incarnate powered, I will NOT BACK DOWN!

Upon Defeat:

Blue Steel: Urgh... how could this... happen...?

Debriefing

Great work, Character. Director 11 is safe and sound and already has a plan set for attacking the base.

He also mentioned wanting to get some vengeance on those Praetorians, but he's assured us that operation will come afterwards. Hey, at least we're not going after you, right? Not that we would any time soon, given your display of power back there.

• Let's discuss what's left.
