'This is How She Dies' (40-50)

The signal on your radio goes in and out for a moment and then you hear the following:

'She's been causing too many problems, that Overdrive. I want her whacked, got it? The Family will pay big. Do the job and get your money. Or maybe even a place in our cozy little family. Just make sure you drop a tulip next to her so we know it was you, got it? She's currently investigating one of our warehouses in the Rogue Isles.'

This is exactly the kind of lead you've been looking for. The Family is so far beneath you any reward they could offer would be laughable. However, the opportunity to go face to face with a real hero--this Overdrive--gets your blood pumping. The look on Overdrive's face as you crush her beneath your boot will be reward enough.

The Family doesn't have much that interests you, however you definitely see an opportunity here. You could let Overdrive know that the Family is gunning for her, you could always use more contacts in Paragon City should you need someone to watch your back.

Villain Acceptance

Briefing

It's hard to pass up a situation like this. Overdrive is practically being given to you thanks to the Family tipping you off that she was in the Rogue Isles. There's the small matter of dealing with her bodyguards, but you figure a warmup is in order before taking on Overdrive.

  • Take out Overdrive!

Overdrive is currently investigating an abandoned office for Family activity with a lasrge group of Longbow. Now's your chance to swoop in and take her out.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Overdrive is investigating an abandoned office nearby. Now's your chance! Get in there and take out Overdrive.

Mission Objective(s)

You can hear the echoes of voices from deep within the warehouse.You hear a woman arguing with someone else.

You took down both Overdrive and Desdemona. It was a hero two for one sale!

Enemies

Debriefing

That was unexpected! You managed to not only take out Overdive, but Desdemona as well. When word gets around, the Rogue Isles will fear your name even more than usual.

Rogue Acceptance

Briefing

The Family wants Overdrive killed. They themselves would have a heck of a time doing that, though; she's no joke. They'll likely hire mercenaries and other villains--like yourself--to do so. Your hope is that by warning her you might earn a favor that you'll be able to call in.

  • Warn Overdrive!

The Family has a lot of resources to throw at their problems. It would be out of the question to expect other big hitters there. You're hoping she's grateful enough to owe you a favor.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Overdrive has to be warned of the Family's plot to kill her.

Mission Objective(s)

You fear it might be too late. You overhear Arachnos troops patrolling the place. They must have overheard the Family message as well!

  • Warn Overdrive
    • Recruit Desdemona (Optional)
    • Find Overdrive
    • Lead Overdrive to safety
    • Deal with Mangle

You rescued Overdrive and now she owes you a favor.

Clue
Desdemona's Warning

Desdemona tells you that she's been working with Overdrive and Longbow to investigate a Family crime spree that began in Paragon City. They found themselves in the Rogue Isles, stepped on some toes, and now Arachnos and the Family are actively hunting them down.

Debriefing

You managed to wade through the mess that was created when the call went out to kill Overdrive. You managed to save her life, which is something you'll bring up if she ever tries to take you to the slammer.

Surely that's something those do-gooders will keep in mind, right?
