The Deputy Assistant of Information is little more than a clerk who works at the [[Ministry of Information]]. Though on the extreme end of friendly, it's the Deputy's choice of cologne that makes him difficult to talk to for longer than a few minutes. Despite these flaws he appears to be someone that knows a little bit about everyone in Praetoria City.

:*{{green|Who is Matter-Man?}}


The Deputy Assistant of Information is a weasel of a man, but his shrewd intuition helped guide you in properly playing the hearts and minds of Praetoria's people to your favor. By seeking out a murderer at large, you proved your capabilities to the people of Praetoria. But when you placed the memorial rose at the base of the emperor's statue, to commemorate the life of the murderer's victim, you plucked the people's heart strings. For that you will be remembered most of all.
:Precisely! The public has never heard of Matter-Man. That is my specialty, {{Character}}, I will make certain that the people see the deeds you do, and when they do, you will be a household name.


For a moment there you thought that he might actually know what he was talking about, but it soon became obvious that the Deputy was only riding on the coat tails of others. When he referred you to Specialist Harrison concerning a fiasco with the Clockwork, you knew that Harrison was the man with the information. You assisted Harrison in thwarting a Resistance plot to reprogram the Clockwork at the City Maintenance Facility. Your brief partnership with the Deputy had come to an end, but not before he introduced you to a member of Marauder's Top Dogs, a man by the name of Warrant.

Shrewd Lessons

Every now and then you catch a wiff of Pardus, the cheap perfume worn by the Deputy Assistant of Information, and can't help but think back to the only thing he was useful for: teaching you a few

Shrewd Lessons.

The Deputy Assistant of Information is a weasel of a man, but his shrewd intuition helped guide you in properly playing the hearts and minds of Praetoria's people to your favor. By seeking out a murderer at large, you proved your capabilities to the people of Praetoria. But when you placed the memorial rose at the base of the emperor's statue, to commemorate the life of the murderer's victim, you plucked the people's heart strings. For that you will be remembered most of all.

For a moment there you thought that he might actually know what he was talking about, but it soon became obvious that the Deputy was only riding on the coat tails of others. When he referred you to Specialist Harrison concerning a fiasco with the Clockwork, you knew that Harrison was the man with the information. You assisted Harrison in thwarting a Resistance plot to reprogram the Clockwork at the City Maintenance Facility. Your brief partnership with the Deputy had come to an end, but not before he introduced you to a member of Marauder's Top Dogs, a man by the name of Warrant.

Part One: Hearts and Minds

Briefing

You and I, Character, we could make a real swell team. I could be your partner. No, wait, I have a better idea. I could be your manager.

See, I've got connections all over the city. I hear about everything going on in this city, and that means you will hear it too. Information is, after all, my specialty.

Take this, for example. A man named Paul Valus, he murdered a PPD officer, Douglas Cartwright. Cartwright was a real heroic type, just won a medal of honor from Emperor Cole himself. But I digress. Paul Valus walks right up to Cartwright in the middle of a crowded restaurant, right in front of his wife and kids and everyone and shoots him in the temple, killing him. The PPD didn't catch him and they've been searching for him ever since. If you were to bring in Paul Valus, you'd be a hero.

  • Take down Paul Valus

That's the spirit! See, you and I are going to be a great team. You win the hearts and minds of the people, and I'll manage your fans and get the information you need.

Oh, there I go prattling on and on again before it's prudent to do so.

So Valus disappears, everyone says down into the tunnels. But I know better. I have the right connections and they keep me well informed.

It turns out that Valus didn't go underground at all, he holed up with some Syndicate Go-gangers. You know the type, right? Color coded motorcycle leathers, sunglasses, automatic weapons. I know where they're hiding him, but the PPD are going to find him sooner than later. If you take him out first, you will win the people's minds. If you place a rose on Cole's statue in memory of Officer Cartwright, you will also win their hearts.

Take down Paul Valus

Unnecessary Solicitation

Valus is hiding out at this address. I know, it's a pharmaceutical company, but you have to trust me, the Syndicate are there. They're always where you never suspect.

Mission Objective(s)

File:Map P Tech 30 Layout 04 01.png
Map: P_Tech_30_Layout_04_01

The facility is clean and operational. How do a bunch of Syndicate Go-gangers and a known murderer hide out here without getting noticed? Someone's on somebody else's payroll.

  • Find Paul Valus
    • Take down Paul Valus

You brought swift justice to Paul Valus. Now all that remains is honoring the memory of Officer Cartwright and his surviving family by placing the rose at the foot of Emperor Cole's statue.

Enemies

Syndicate

Notable NPCs

Colorful motorcycle leathers can't hide Paul Valus from justice.


Paul Valus
Briefing

You here to take me in? I won't go alive...

  • I'm counting on that...

Then why hesitate? Just finish me off or I'll do it myself, heh.

  • Why'd you do it? Why'd you kill Cartwright?
He wasn't no hero. Cartwright deserved to die more than I do for killing him.
He took everything from me, my wife, my son...
  • Nice sob story, save your tears for the nether world.
Fight Paul Valus
  • Why? What'd they do? (A)
Nothing! They were innocent! PPD, Powers Division, you're all the same...
Cartwright was drunk on his power, we ran into him one night, just a minute after curfew... That's all it took. He blew out my knees with his power gauntlets and then had my family taken away as traitors. He left me there on the street to get picked up by a hospital unit...
  • What happened to your family?
Executed for treason... My wife and son were executed because that scumbag wanted to flaunt his power! I vowed revenge, and I got it.
I don't care what happens to me now, just that Cartwright's family knows why their father got taken from them: because my family got taken from me.
  • Alright, I've heard enough... (B)
Fight Paul Valus
  • I'll see if there's any truth to it. If there is, I'll make sure everyone knows.
...
  • Leave
  • Sounds like he got what he deserved.
He did. I spared his family because they were innocent... I want them to know why I did what I did. I want to be recognized as a good man before I die.
  • I'll see if there's any truth to it. If there is, I'll make sure everyone knows.
...
  • Leave
  • You're not a good man. You're a cop killer, and your sentence is death!
Fight Paul Valus
  • Got any last words?
Last words. Yeah, I do, actually...
Cartwright was no hero, he was worse than me. Killing him in front of his family like that may have been cold, but I didn't take his family from him like he did from me...
  • What'd they do?
This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (A)
  • Alright, I've heard enough...
This selection loops to another branch of this conversation which is already documented. (B)
  • Go ahead, finish yourself off then, save me the trouble.
...
  • Leave

You exit the Syndicate hideout just as PPD officers arrive and swarm past you into the building. In a few minutes they'll find Paul Valus along with your handiwork and word will spread. Now is the time to make your way to the statue of Emperor Cole. There you can honor Officer Cartwright and his family with a rose placed at the foot of mankind's savior.

Visit Emperor Cole's Statue

Unnecessary Solicitation

Remember, place the rose at the foot of Cole's statue, solemnly. Like you care.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Visit Emperor Cole's Statue

You placed the rose at the foot of Cole's Statue. Return to the Deputy Assistant of Information.

Debriefing

Magnificent. Truly splendid. That was the best press I've ever gotten for one of you Powers Division guys / girls.

TPN managed to get it on camera, and they just had an interview with Cartwright's family. His wife, she was in tears. I was very heartwarming. She blessed you for your compassion and sent her love to you as well. Precious, really.

We are going places, my friend. You and me... rising to the top... heh heh... hmmm... Just as soon as I can find our next piece of work. Just, wait there one minute. I need to make a call.

Oh, my phone. Of course. It would be quite silly of me not to be in constant contact with you, Character. After all, I am certain to have a veritable flood of valuable information coming my way anytime soon. Quite valuable.

Part Two: Cut out the Middleman

Briefing

Character. Very good news, very good. I just got off the phone with a contact of mine. One of many, I might add.

Ahem. His name is Harrison, he's a specialist working with M.I.C.I.R., the PPD crime lab. He's a good source of information, but I digress.

I need you to talk to Mr... or should I say... Specialist Harrison. It would appear that he has need of your wonderful talents in dealing with a fiasco involving the Clockwork.

It sounds terribly dangerous.

  • Help Specialist Harrison

Oh, wonderful. Harrison is waiting for you down by the Ministry of Information in the Magisterium. Harrison is a sharp fellow; He let me in on where Paul Valus was hiding out, after all, so I figured we could return the favor, don't you think?

Help Specialist Harrison

Unnecessary Solicitation

Specialist Harrison has the details on this clockwork fiasco he's talking about. Throw him a bone. He threw us one.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Speak with Specialist Harrison

Briefing

Thanks for talking to me, Character. I know you Powers Division guys / gals have a lot to do, what with the recent terrorist attacks and all, but I think this might be related.

I heard a report over the police band about a PPD engagement with some Clockwork that had apparently gone berserk.

If my suspicions are correct, this isn't a random occurence, but I need some evidence and a first hand account from you. I want you to go lend the PPD a hand and see what you can find.

Oh, and good job taking down Valus.

Check out the Clockwork Disturbance

Unnecessary Solicitation

Chatter on the dispatch says that the PPD have requested backup twice now. You'd better hurry over there before the fight's over.

Mission Objective(s)

File:Map P Tech 15 Layout 01 01.png
Map: P_Tech_15_Layout_01_01

The familiar sound of force gauntlets mixes with plasma blasts and screaming. That sounds like the PPD alright.

  • Check out the Clockwork Disturbance
    • Put down all the malfunctioning Clockwork.

You put down the haywire clockwork, but you'd better get the full story from Officer Welks.

Warrant Officer Welks

Enemies

Resistance Clockwork

Notable NPCS


Talk to Warrant Officer Welks

Unnecessary Solicitation

I heard Warrant Officer Welks was in that scrap. I don't know her personally, but I've heard good things about her. See what additional information you can find out from her.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Warrant Officer Welks

Debriefing

So, you came for some answers about that scuffle with those misbehaving Clockwork, huh? Well, we were kicking their metal teeth in alright before you arrived. Not that I'm not grateful.

Something strange, you ask?

You know, now that you mention it, yeah, I did notice something. They all looked like there had been some significant damage done to their head casings. I figured it was just from a previous run in with a PPD officer, or maybe beating up on each other, but now I'm thinking it was forced entry from someone else... maybe someone's been tampering with their heads?

Return to Specialist Harrison

Unnecessary Solicitation

None.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Return to Specialist Harrison

Briefing

Hey Character, what did you find out?

Tampering? Hey, wait a second. One of my buddies over at M.I.C.I.R. just got a hold of the haywire Clockwork, and they're studying it now. Let me give him a call.

Hey, Parson, yeah, it's Harrison. Hey, do those clockwork show any signs of forced entry?

They do? Well, Character thinks someone may have tampered with them...

What? A foreign chip? Fused to the motherboard?

Right... well, I have Character here right now, I'll tell him / her.

Alright, Parson says that there was a foreign chip installed on those Clockwork, and their navigational records suggest it happened back inside the City Maintenance Facility. I think you'll find our culprit there.

Check out the CMF

Unnecessary Solicitation

The navigational data in this clockwork indicates that it powered up with the new memory chip back at the City Maintenance Facility. Check it out.

Mission Objective(s)

File:Map P Tech 30 Layout 04 01.png
Map: P_Tech_30_Layout_04_01

Everything seemed perfectly fine until you ran into a Clockwork slamming its head against the wall. You deactivated it and moved into the facility for a closer look.

  • Check out the CMF
    • Find out who is responsible

You put an end to the haywire clockwork problem. Return to the Deputy Assistant of Information.

  • Resistance Sympathizer (Angry Citizens, Lieutenant)
This citizen is using their job inside the City Maintenance Facility to reprogram Clockwork for the Resistance.

Ambush! After attacking the Resistance Sympathizer, Resistance Clockwork will ambush your team.

You are startled, briefly, when you emerge from the CMF maintence door to find a TPN camera crew and reporter there ready to interview you. You answer a few questions until the PPD arrive and order the TPN crew off the premesis. Handing over the traitor, you find yourself free to return to the Deputy.

Debriefing

Grand job in thwarting that evil Resistance plot, Character. I made sure to inform one of my contacts over at TPN of your latest exploits, so I hope they managed to catch up to you.

I uh, hope you didn't mind having to do a little leg work. It seems that Harrison wasn't very forthcoming with the information this time around. But don't you worry, next time, I'll be on top of things...
