Introductions

Contact Introduces

Your reputation in Paragon City has grown. The people have come to respect you and many good citizens are seeking your help. Go see Detective Rogers to be introduced to a new Contact.

Multiple contact options

There are a couple people I know want to meet you.

Single contact option

I've got someone I'd like you to meet.

Level 15-19

• Cho Ge

I know this guy, his name's Cho Ge. He's a little shady. He even used to be a gangster, but these days he's working for the good guys. He knows everything about the Tsoo and the Council. Cho Ge hangs out in Skyway City nowadays.

As long as you watch your step with Cho Ge, you will benefit from his knowledge

• Kong Bao

There's a Hmong businessman named Kong Bao who's a real leader in his community. You should talk to him. I'm sure you'd find him quite helpful, especially when it comes to the Tsoo and the Circle of Thorns. Mr. Kong has strong ties to Skyway City.

You will be helping a great man, Character.

• Dr. Ann-Marie Engles

Dr. Ann-Marie Engles is a real expert in the field of cybernetics. She is fascinated with the technical aspect of the Vahzilok and the social impact of the Outcasts. Dr. Engles has set up shop in Skyway City.

You'll learn a lot from Dr. Engles; she's always happy to lend heroes a hand.

• Colleen Saramago

Do you have any contacts with Hero Corps yet? Even if you do, you should really talk to Colleen Saramago. I think she'd be happy to give you some assignments dealing with the Clockwork and the Trolls. Hero Corps has stationed Colleen in Steel Canyon.

Hero Corps has a very good information network.

Level 20-24

• Barry Gosford

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.

• Andrea Mitchell

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.

• Amanda Loomis

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.

Information

Police Liaison

Detective Rogers is a 30 year veteran on the force, whose experience has helped numerous heroes.

Wrong Detective

You're Character, right? Now wait, I heard about this from HQ. Hold on, you're supposed to be working with Martins, right? Sorry for that mix-up.

Too Low Level

Look, I know you want to help, but I need to know you can take care of yourself first. Come back when you're certified for security level 5 at least, okay?

Initial Contact

I've been a cop for a long time, Character, and experience has taught me to appreciate when someone offers to help. Once you've done some things and we've gotten to know you, we'll be sure to contact you if a real emergency comes up.

Now that you've gotten a Police Radio, you can start scanning Police chatter to hear about the crimes as they're committed in your current zone. You can then act on a report by selecting it from the Police Radio, listed under your Contacts.

Greeting

• We got a situation, Character.
• Hey, Hero. You here to help?

Too Busy

You gotta slow down there, Character. You got enough to do right now. Finish some other things first, alright?

No More Missions

We've got things under control right now, but keep your ear open and listen to the police band.

Missions

Protect Kings Row bank

While listening for the latest signs of trouble, you hear a call asking for heroes to speak with Contact directly. Something big is happening.

Briefing

A villain from the Rogue Isles has shown up in Kings Row, intent on robbing the bank with an army of Skulls. We need heroes to go to Kings Row and protect the bank from that villain! The robbers have probably made their way to the bank by now, so you should make your way there immediately. You probably have about 5 minutes or less before they make their escape.

This is a Safeguard mission. Once you prevent the heist, you will have 15 minutes to explore the area and potentially earn extra rewards before the P.P.D. lock down the area. You can earn extra time by defeating vandals and completing side missions.

Mission Acceptance

The villain has enlisted the help of the Skulls to do the job. They must be stopped as well. Other villains have heard about the heist, too, and are trying to take advantage of the situation. Most notable, the Clockwork.

Periodically, vandals will arrive to destroy parts of the city. You will see a message when they arrive, and their locations will be displayed in your minimap.

Mission Refusal

What?! I understand, Character. You no doubt have some very important things to do. We'll do our best to stop them, but it doesn't look good.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Go protect Kings Row!

Mission Objective(s)

You run over to Kings Row as fast as you can. While the Skulls are trying to take out the bank vault, the Clockwork are taking advantage of the situation by taking over the streets. You'll have to keep an eye out for the vandals causing mayhem while corralling the Clockwork in the process.

• Protect Kings Row bank

You saved Kings Row!

Protect Skyway City bank

While listening for the latest signs of trouble, you hear a call asking for heroes to speak with Contact directly. Something big is happening.

Briefing

We've just learned that a villain from the Rogue Isles is going to attack Skyway City, intent on robbing the bank and causing mayhem! To make matters worse, the Lost are somehow connected to this, and have been swarming into the zone. Paragon City needs her heroes to get over to Skyway City and protect the city and the bank from that villain. The robbers have already struck, so you should head over there quick. You probably have about 5 minutes or less before they make their escape.

This is a Safeguard mission. Once you prevent the heist, you will have 15 minutes to explore the area and potentially earn extra rewards before the P.P.D. lock down the area. You can earn extra time by defeating vandals and completing side missions.

Mission Acceptance

We know the Lost are central to what's happening, but we've also learned that the Trolls are going to hit the streets in force to take advantage of the chaos. Your main objective is still to stop the Lost and the villain before they ruin the city and get into the bank, but stopping other villains from causing trouble would also be a great help.

Periodically, vandals will arrive to destroy parts of the city. You will see a message when they arrive, and their locations will be displayed in your minimap.

Mission Refusal

What?! I understand, Character. You no doubt have some very important things to do. We'll do our best to stop them, but it doesn't look good.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Go protect Skyway City!

Mission Objective(s)

This isn't going to be easy. The Trolls have alerted the Lost to your presence and are planning to stop you from interfering in the bank robbery. The Lost are roaming around causing mayhem and preparing themselves for the attack on the bank vault.
