'''Nerva Archipelago''' is one of the city zones in City of Villains. One of the biggest zones villainside, Nerva Archipelago consists of a few large neighborhoods placed far apart. ''Crimson Cove'' is a series of smaller islands within the archipelago at the south end of the zone. ''Agincourt'' in the center-east boasts a large [[Longbow]] invasion force; ''Primeva'' to the northeast of ''Agincourt'' is a large, contested island, where many different enemy factions battle for control. Further northeast is ''Thorn Isle'', where the [[Thorn Tree]] grows, [[Circle of Thorns]] flock, and magic gathers in strange ways.


Nerva Archipelago is one of the city zones in City of Villains.
The trainer for Nerva Archipelago is [[Arbiter Frederick]], and the [[Broker]]s are both in ''Crimson Cove'', [[Stella the Mouth]] in the southwest and [[Winston the Gent]] in the northeast.

Those of an occult nature claim that Nerva Archipelago was a long-term stopover for the [[Mu]] in ages
past. They built numerous structures on the island called Primeva to aid them in their magical rituals,
then set out to destroy the [[Oranbega]]ns in what is now [[Paragon City]]. Things didn’t go exactly as planned,
and the Mu were wiped out by their foes’ demonic hordes.


=== Trainers ===
With the Mu outpost destroyed, their structures and portals fell into disrepair and were eventually
covered over by the verdant forest, where they have lain undisturbed for thousands of years. One or two
of the old ruins were found by pirates, but the inhospitable terrain and the vicious things rumored to lurk
within kept most at bay.


* Arbiter Frederick
The outer islands have seen more habitation, and eventually they grew into Crimson Cove, a
“protectorate” on the outskirts of U.S. territorial waters. The town is heavily occupied by Heroes
and Project [[Longbow]], but since it is outside the [[Rogue Isles]], [[Lord Recluse]] and his agents have quietly
made it known that independent operators who ply their trade there will be looked on favorably.

Overview

Nerva Archipelago is one of the city zones in City of Villains. One of the biggest zones villainside, Nerva Archipelago consists of a few large neighborhoods placed far apart. Crimson Cove is a series of smaller islands within the archipelago at the south end of the zone. Agincourt in the center-east boasts a large Longbow invasion force; Primeva to the northeast of Agincourt is a large, contested island, where many different enemy factions battle for control. Further northeast is Thorn Isle, where the Thorn Tree grows, Circle of Thorns flock, and magic gathers in strange ways.

The trainer for Nerva Archipelago is Arbiter Frederick, and the Brokers are both in Crimson Cove, Stella the Mouth in the southwest and Winston the Gent in the northeast.

Plaques

Badge

Arrhh, matey! You be a mighty scholar o' piracy!

Day Jobs

Badge

Your study of the Mission Architect system has earned you the Architect Day Job. Logging out in the Mission Architect will earn you 2 bonus Mission Architect Tickets, when you log back in, each time you complete a mission for a short time.

Arachnos is more likely to pound you into dust than let you near one of their fliers. And your license is no good in Paragon City, it seems.
