Level 20-24
Have you ever read any of Jim Bell's articles in the paper? He's a great reporter who's been doing a lot of articles on the Tsoo and the Warriors. Jim has access to Training Enhancements.
Jim is outspoken and opinionated, but he is extremely well informed.
There's a wise old man named Dr. Cheng who knows just about everything there is to know about the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. He has access to Training Enhancements.
Dr. Cheng is very wise, Hero. Pay close attention to his words.
I'd love for you to meet Polly Cooper. She's a coordinator for the Civil Air Patrol, and she knows a lot about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Polly has access to Training Enhancements.
Miss Cooper is very skilled at her job and should prove to be a valuable asset to you.
I know a guy named Kevin Cordell who runs a small security consulting business. He's heard about you and would like to talk sometime about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Kevin used to be a hero, and he still has access to Training Enhancements.
Kevin is not easily impressed, but I think you will do just fine with him, Character.
I'd like you to meet Oswald Cuthbert. He's a probation officer and thus has a lot of contact with the sordid side of Paragon City. He often uses heroes like you to help him out with the Sky Raiders and the Council. Oswald can get you Training Enhancements.
Good choice, Character, and good hunting
Do you ever read Dennis Ewell's columns? He's quite a writer, and he told me he'd like your help taking out the Tsoo and the Warriors. Dennis has access to Training Enhancements.
Dennis isn't convinced that the heroes of Paragon City are much better than the villains, but he is coming around.
Wil Eziquerra is an excellent reporter who specialized in stories on the Sky Raiders and the Council. His sources usually keep him stocked up with Training Enhancements.
Wil is going to be a great resource for you, Character.
I have to admit that Georgia Fields doesn't have the best reputation. No one really knows how she gets her information, but she's an excellent source on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. She is usually able to get her hands on training enhancements.
If you are careful, Georgia can be of great assistance to you.
There's an amazing guy named Tyler French who runs a youth sports program; it keeps troubled teens off the streets. He hears a lot and likes to help heroes out, especially with the Tsoo and the Warriors. Tyler has access to Training Enhancements.
Tyler is really great for the kids, Character. Help him out however you can.
I've been asked to introduce you to Lt. Gosford from the Paragon City Police Department. He runs a special unit that is focused on bringing down the Sky Raiders and the Council. Gosford's connections within the department give him access to Training Enhancements.
Gosford is used to working with heroes. You will get along fine.
My friend Justin Greene has asked to see you. He's a coordinator for his local community watch group. He used to be a hero, so he knows how to help you clean up groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. Justin has access to Training Enhancements.
I think Justin will like you a great deal, Character.
If you can gain his confidence, Oliver Haak is a rich source of information on the occult. Don't be put off by his demeanor, Character, I know that you will impress him. He can really help you out against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Oliver has access to Training Enhancements.
Your actions will speak for you with Oliver.
I'd like you to go see my friend Piper Irving. She's an anthropologist working here in the city. She knows a ton about the obscure beliefs of the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Piper knows where to get Training Enhancements.
I am sure you will find Piper quite knowledgeable.
Detective Rondel Jackson is a great guy to talk to if you want the police perspective on groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. He's also the one to talk to if you need Training Enhancements.
Detective Jackson is a hardworking straight-shooter. He won't steer you wrong.
I have no doubt you will enjoy working with Professor Keller
Although he is a bit eccentric, Joseph Keller has a great deal of knowledge. He can greatly aid anyone who wishes to go up against the Banished Pantheon or the Circle of Thorns. Professor Keller has access to Training Enhancements.
If you ever have a computer problem or want a lead on some computer related crime, you should talk to Justine Kelly. She's a whiz at technical stuff and a bit of an online hero in her own right. Lately she has been focusing her attention on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Justine has access to Training Enhancements.
Justine is a very skilled young lady.
The INS has a woman named Amanda Loomis who works well with heroes. She is trying to keep the Tsoo situation from turning any uglier than it already has, and she also has a deep interest in the Warriors. Amanda should be able to get you Training Enhancements.
Amanda likes to use metaphors, but she understands the realities of Paragon City all too well.
If you are looking for a partner to help you take down the Banished Pantheon, Andrea Mitchell would be a great choice. She is very dedicated and her connections are top notch. She also has a lot of interest in the Circle of Thorns. Andrea has access to Training Enhancements.
I have a good feeling about you and Andrea.
Melanie Peebles has the power to see things through her dreams. Her most recent dreams have been about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Melanie has access to Training Enhancements.
Do not dismiss Melanie's guidance lightly.
I know a rather interesting fellow named Hinckley Rasmussen. He works as a researcher for the Midnight Squad and takes an interest in helping heroes like you fight the Tsoo and the Warriors. Hinckley has access to Training Enhancements.
He is a bit eccentric, but Hinckley knows his stuff.
Cain Royce is strongly committed to his crusade against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. You would do well to have him as an ally. Cain can get you Training Enhancements.
Paragon City's evil-doers will soon feel the weight of this choice.
I'd like you to meet Lt. Manuel Ruiz from the Gang Unit. He specializes in running undercover operations, and he's always looking for trustworthy individuals to help him out with the Tsoo and the Warriors. The department supplies Lt. Ruiz with Training Enhancements.
Lt. Ruiz has put a lot of gangers away himself; he can help you do the same.
I think you should talk to John Strobel from the Citizen Defense Coalition. It's a group of ex-military and law enforcement officers that helps heroes like you from time to time. Right now their attention is focused on the Sky Raiders and the Council. John has a few sources that can get him Training Enhancements.
John is very patriotic and somewhat idealistic, but he's got a keen eye for trouble.
I've been asked to keep this very quiet, but someone from the CIA wants to meet you. Her name is Kirsten Woods and she knows quite a bit about the Sky Raiders. She also thinks there may be more to the Lost than meets the eye. As a CIA operative, Agent Woods has access to Training Enhancements.
Keep a low profile when you are working with Kirsten.
Level 25-29
You should go see Collin Larson. He's a cybernetics expert and a real friend to heroes everywhere. He knows a great deal about the Freakshow and the Family. He also has Training Enhancements.
Collin is well suited to work with a hero like you, Character.
There's a scientist named Marvin Weintraub who's quite the expert on advanced technologies, the Freakshow, and the Family. He also has training enhancements.
Marvin has done as much to help the heroes of Paragon City as anyone in the world.
Information
Electronics Purveyor
With their experimental armor and high tech weapons, heroes are always in need of some special electronic part that's impossible to find. Andrew Fiore makes it his job to find those parts. He deals with all mannor of sources, some of them a little less than honest. As a result, he hears a great many interesting things, and he's more than happy to pass on tips to his hero clients. He's proud to do his part to put criminals behind bards, and he'll occasionally give out more than just information if he thinks a greased palm may get the job done. He's especially fervent when it comes to villains that directly impact his business, such as the thieving Freakshow.

Missions
Assist the Security Chief in Independence Port (24)
Briefing
Time to take a bite out of crime, Character. The Security Chief in Indy Port wants some help with those scumbags from the Family. Go lend him a hand.
Mission Acceptance
If you get a chance take a look at the Statue of Wavelength near the water. She was a speedster who fell in the Rikti War.
Assist the Security Chief
Unnecessary Solicitation
Help out the Security Chief with those Family goons.
Mission Objective(s)
- Assist the Security Chief
Here's some information on the area. We've been having a lot of trouble with the Family, especially in Crey Cove and Bell Point. I really need you to lend a hand.
This is where many brave heroes defended the city against an invading space armada back in the 50's. Paragon City renamed the area Independence Port, in honor of the heroes who died in that epic battle. You'll see the big statue of Cassiopeia by the bridge; she was one of the famous heroes who died in that fight. It's a shame that organized crime runs the docks nowadays. The Family pulls all the strings here, despite the best efforts of law enforcement.
Keep peace in Independence Port
Unnecessary Solicitation
Deal with the Family for the Security Chief.
Mission Objective(s)
- Keep peace in Independence Port
- Defeat 20 Family
You have defeated 25 Family thugs.
Enemies
Debriefing
Nice job helping clean up a historic zone, Character! Mission:Common - Intro Assist the Talos Island Security Chief
Deliver package to Stephanie Peebles
Briefing
Have you ever been over to Striga Isle, Character? There's a woman there named Stephanie Peebles who needs our help. She's got all she can do trying to hold Port Noble together against the onslaught of the Council. Will you take this package over to Stephanie? I'd appreciate it if you didn't look inside. Oh, you might want to take some friends. It can get pretty dicey over there.
Mission Acceptance
The Council has managed to entrench itself on Striga Isle but good. If you can give Stephanie any assistance against them, I'm sure she'll be grateful. Of course, I hope you won't forget about your old friends here in Paragon City. We'll always be grateful for your help, too.
Here's the package. It's for Stephanie's eyes only.
This package, intended for Stephanie Peebles, has a strange scent. Try as you might, you can't quite place it.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Stephanie's waiting for that package.
Mission Objective(s)
- Go see Stephanie Peebles
Thanks for the package, Character; I'm grateful. So, what do you think of Port Noble? Doesn't look like much, maybe? Well, it's my home. I've been doing what I can to kick those Council goons out, but I need more help. I'd appreciate it if you could stick around.
Otherwise, you can keep following leads from your other contacts. I'll always be here, and I'll always be grateful for assistance.
There is no debriefing from your original contact for this mission and no experience is given for it. Additionally, the mission will drop off your mission list automatically and you are not required to return to your contact to remove it. This is because it is intended to be an introduction to the contact Stephanie Peebles, and the Striga Isle arcs by extension.
Go to Independence Port and show the Family they don't own the docks (22-25)
Briefing
It seems Independence Port is at the center of the Family's Superadine ring. I want to bust that ring wide open! Get over to Independence Port and show the Family that they don't run the docks.
Mission Acceptance
Bell Point and Patriot Wharf are hotbeds for drug runners. You might want to start in one of those areas.
Unnecessary Solicitation
The Family is still moving drugs through Independence Port. I want it stopped, Character.
Mission Objective(s)
- Fight Family in Independence Port
- Defeat 20 Family
You have discouraged the Family from selling drugs in Independence Port.
Enemies
Debriefing
The Family is at the very heart of the Superadine trade. If we can stop them, we may win Paragon City's war on drugs.
Go to Independence Port and stop the Family protests (22-25)
Briefing
I guess you've heard that a Family captain, Johnnie Two Shoes, is being tried tomorrow for murder and conspiracy? Well, I can assure you the thugs over in Independence Port are aware of it! They've been protesting by wreaking havoc on city property. Someone's got to get over to Independence Port and stop the Family protests. Can you do it?
Mission Acceptance
Tempers are particularly high in Wave Landing and Crey Cove. I recommend starting in one of those neighborhoods.
Unnecessary Solicitation
The Family is still protesting the trial of Johnnie Two Shoes. Somebody has to stop it before the destruction gets out of hand.
Mission Objective(s)
- Fight Family in Independence Port
- Defeat 20 Family
You have discouraged the Family from protesting the trial of Johnnie Two Shoes.
Enemies
Debriefing
The Family hates to see one of their men put in jail. Thanks for keeping them from taking it out on the city, Character.
Head off the Freaks' violence (20-24)
Briefing
There are rumors around that the Freakshow is planning something in Talos Island to protest the capture of Upstart, one of their faction leaders. So far, they don't seem to have any plans, but if the number of Freaks reaches a critical mass, they won't need a plan to set the whole zone on fire. It would be a good thing if you could head off the Freaks' violence. I've heard that a lot of them are congregating near New Thebes and Argo Highway, but you can probably find Freakshow all over.
Mission Acceptance
As I mentioned, the Freaks don't seem to have a plan, yet, so there's still time. A few public defeats by heroes such as yourself should cool them down.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I'm still worried that the Freaks may try something big in Talos Island. Get over there, Character.
Mission Objective(s)
- Defeat Freakshow in Talos Island
- Defeat 20 Freakshow
You have prevented an outbreak of violence from the Freakshow.
Enemies
Debriefing
You've reminded the Freakshow that the city's protectors are watching. The people of Paragon City owe you again. Mission:Common - Infiltrate the Freakshow and recover the stolen Chameleon Suit
Investigate the warehouse and destroy any Superadine you find (22-25)
Briefing
We have an opportunity to strike a powerful blow against the Family, but you'll have to act quickly. We have traced a significant portion of their Superadine operation through a warehouse in Independence Port. I need you to investigate that warehouse and destroy any Superadine you find. We think they may be aware of our surveillance. You only have 75 minutes to investigate the warehouse.
Mission Acceptance
This could be big, Character. We've been trying for years to get evidence on the Family's drug dealing.
Unnecessary Solicitation
We need to know if the Family is really moving Superadine out of that warehouse. If we miss this opportunity, we will regret it.
Mission Objective(s)
An acrid chemical smell pervades this area.
- Investigate Family warehouse (Timed, 75 minutes)
- 4 Drugs, 2 Labs, 5 Chemicals, Evidence
You have destroyed the Family's Superadine lab.
Enemies
You found records of the Family's connection to this warehouse.
These files prove conclusively that the Superadine lab you destroyed was owned and operated by ranking Family members. This evidence, along with your testimony, should be enough to put these evildoers in jail.
Debriefing
That was a Herculean effort, Character. Shutting down that warehouse will put a huge dent in the Family's Superadine operation.
Make it clear that the Freaks don't belong anywhere near the reactor (22-24)
Briefing
The Terra Volta reactor powers the force fields that keep the civilized parts of the city safe, so it's become quite a target for extermist groups like the Freakshow. I need you to get over to Terra Volta and make it clear that the Freaks don't belong anywhere near that reactor. Reactor technicians have reported seeing Freakshow near the Challenger Technology Complex and the Raysun Petroleum facility. Maybe you should start in one of those areas.
Mission Acceptance
Terra Volta's pretty scary these days. I'd recommend taking some allies with you.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Terra Volta is on the brink of chaos, Character. The city is depending on you.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Freakshow in Terra Volta
- Defeat 20 Freakshow
You have discouraged the Freakshow from meddling with the reactor.
Enemies
Debriefing
It's heroes like you who keep Terra Volta running. You've done good work today, Character.
See Dark Astoria Security Chief
Briefing
I need you to report to the Security Chief for Dark Astoria and help fight the Banished Pantheon. He didn't give me any details, but he sounded swamped.
Dark Astoria can get under your skin if you let it. Just focus on the job at hand.
Mission Objective(s)
- Assist the Dark Astoria Security Chief
The Pantheon is causing a lot of trouble around here, especially in Romero Heights and Raimi Arcade. Take this briefing and get out there.
The maps say 'Astoria', but this place has always been 'Dark Astoria' to the people of Paragon City. The cemetery up there dates back to the prehistoric era, and there's sort of a spooky quality to it. Of course, very few people go in there anymore—not since the dead started crawling out of the ground! We're pretty sure it's the Banished Pantheon behind it all. They've got the magic to do it. You get rid of a few zombies, more come back. Even worse, there's a giant zombie in there. That's why the authorities have abandoned the place. Heroes should go in there only in small teams.
Mission Objective(s)
- Keep the peace in Dark Astoria
- Defeat 20 Banished Pantheon
+++ Missing Information +++
Enemies
Debriefing
You seem to have come through that all right. You have nerves of steel.
See Siren's Call Liaison
Briefing
I don't know if you realized this, but as we speak, Paragon City is under assault. Over in Siren's Call, Lord Recluse and his men are making every effort to get themselves a foothold. If we let them manage it, we'll be in serious trouble. I'd appreciate it if you'd go speak with the Longbow Warzone Liaison over in Steel Canyon. She could use the help of heroes like you.
Siren's Call is a PVP zone, where you may be killed by other players.
Mission Acceptance
The Warzone Liaison can help you get the right contacts in Siren's Call.
Unnecessary Solicitation
The Warzone Liaison wants to speak to you about Siren's Call.
Mission Objective(s)
- Talk to Warzone Liaison
If you're ready to take on a real challenge, you can be a big help to Longbow here in Siren's Call. We have to push Arachnos out. If you're willling, you can talk to Agent Brinson. He's got a number of missions that will swing the battle in Longbow's favor. Or you can talk to the Security Chief at the Longbow Base; he can tell you all about bounties.
Siren's Call is a PVP zone. If you enter, you may be killed by other players. Do not enter if you are not willing to risk this.
Debriefing
I hope the Warzone Liaison gave you the info you need to help out in Siren's Call. It would be a shame to lose that zone to Arachnos.
Show the Family that extortion isn't welcome (22-24)
Briefing
I've been hearing a lot of complaints about the Family lately. It seems those thugs think they can bully any business owner in town. I want you to hit the streets and show the Family that extortion isn't welcome in this town.
Mission Acceptance
The Family has controlled the businesses in Independence Port for some time. I'd suggest starting your sweep around there.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I'm still hearing reports of high pressure tactics from the Family. I need you to show them the error of their ways.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Family menace
- Defeat 20 Family
You have discouraged the Family from bullying the business owners of Paragon City.
Enemies
Debriefing
The Family may think they run things in this town, but they are sorely mistaken. Thanks for making that clear.
Stop the destruction (20-25)
Briefing
I just got a call from the Paragon City Museum of Art and Antiquities. It seems the Freakshow just stormed into one of their storage warehouses, and they're busting up everything in sight. I need you to get over there and stop them from destroying those items. Can you do it?
The Freaks have been there for a while, so I don't expect you to save everything inside. But if you can't save at least one important item, we'll have to consider this mission a failure.
Mission Acceptance
I don't know what the Freakshow's aim is here. Proceed with caution.
Unnecessary Solicitation
That museum warehouse is still under attack by the Freakshow.
Mission Objective(s)
You hear a voice yell out, 'When was the Ming Dynasty, anyway?'
- Defeat all Freaks, save any item
- 3 items in jeopardy
You have saved some of the art from the Freakshow.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Display Case x3
Debriefing
You saved a lot of important items from the Freakshow, Character. You should be proud. As for the Freakshow's aim, well, I guess they didn't have one, apart from rampant destruction. That's how the Freaks entertain themselves. It's too bad it's the rest of society that pays the price.
Stop the Tsoo attacks on the Family (22-25)
Briefing
I hear the Tsoo are planning to attack a couple of key Family front business today. I need you to get over to Independence Port and stop the Tsoo attacks on the Family. We can't let innocent people get caught up in this gang war.
Mission Acceptance
Just don't expect the Family to be grateful for your intervention.
Bust gang leaders, their crews (1st Warehouse)
Unnecessary Solicitation
You're needed at those offices, Character.
Mission Objective(s)
The lock has been forced, and the door hangs dizzily on one hinge.
- Bust gang leaders, their crews
- Locate the office manager, 4 bombs to disarm
You defeated the Tsoo and the Family.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Office manager (Non-Escort Hostage)
When you rescued the office manager, he told you:
'Until today, I tought this was a legitimate business. Obviously, I couldn't have been more wrong! If you want me to testify, it's the least I can do!'
Bust gang leaders, their crews (2nd Warehouse)
Unnecessary Solicitation
Get to that second office and defuse the situation.
Mission Objective(s)
You hear a spray of bullets ricochet off the walls.
- Bust gang leaders, their crews
- 4 bombs to disarm
You defeated the Family and the Tsoo.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Guotin (Tsoo Fire Dagger)
- Two Faced Leo (The Family Underboss)
Debriefing
That office manager you rescued is going to testify, that means a lot of Family bosses put in jail. Outstanding work, Character. Just outstanding!
Take the fight back to the Freakshow (20-24)
Briefing
Every faction of the Freakshow follows the word of one man, the leader they call Dreck. Dreck's latest edict is for the Freakshow to take every possible opportunity to defeat the city's heroes and prove that they have the power to rule the city. The city's heroes will just have to take the fight right back to them. I've heard that the Freaks are particularly active in Talos Island and Independence Port, but they'll most likely confront you anywhere you go.
Mission Acceptance
The Freakshow can be tenacious, but I think you've got what it takes to beat them.
Unnecessary Solicitation
I'm not sure the Freakshow have gotten your message yet. Maybe you should take down a couple more.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Freakshow menace
- Defeat 20 Freakshow
You have discouraged the Freaks from challenging heroes.
Enemies
Debriefing
I understand that Dreck has stepped back from his latest edict to the Freakshow. He hasn't mentioned you by name, but I think he was a little alarmed by the way you stepped up to the challenge.
