Mission:Madeleine Casey - Save the office workers from the Carnival
Save the office workers from the Carnival (40-45)
Briefing
I just got a call from the Buchman-Blackman office complex over in Founders' Falls. The Carnival of Shadows has invaded, and they're up to more than their usual parlor tricks. They've set up explosives! Somebody's got to get over there and defuse the situation. Are you up for the job, Character? You only have 75 minutes to stop the bombing. One more thing: the Carnival may be using an interconnected network of bombs. So I'd bring a couple of friends if I were you.
Mission Acceptance
I'll let them know you're on the way.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Have you stopped the Carnival from terrorizing those office workers yet?
Mission Objective(s)
You hear a voice remark, 'Now this! This is going to be art!'
- Defeat all clowns in office (Timed, 75 minutes)
- 5 workers left, 3 bombs left
Failure: The Carnival has done significant damage to the Buchman-Blackman office complex.
Success: You rescued the office workers from the Carnival of Shadows.
Despite what the mission objective text says, the requirement to activate objectives simultaneously was removed in Issue 25 allowing this task to be completed solo.

Debriefing
Failure: The good news is, everyone got out alive. The bad news is, they'll all be looking for new jobs. The building is gone, bombed into smithereens! The Carnival claims it's some sort of artistic statement, but personally, I think it's just appalling.
Success: Ugh. The Carnival wanted to kill those people, all in the name of art? Pretty gross. I wonder what kind of statement they planned to make? Probably one about the precious brevity of life, or something. Whoa. If I'm starting to think like the Carnival, maybe I've been in this business too long.
