Initial Contact

The Seer standing before you is different than the others. She's lacking her mask. A glazed look is in her eyes but you can clearly see a bead of sweat rolling from her forehead down her cheek. She appears to be concentrating intensely on something.

And then suddenly she looks directly at you with wide, pleading eyes.

Seer 0001's Mask

You picked this mask up off the ground after defeating Seer 0001. Sometimes you think about it and then catch yourself imagining what the face of a nearby Seer looks like under her mask. Are her eyes open, or closed? Is she in a waking dream, or more like sleep walking? It reminds you of when you met Katie Douglas, a Seer who had awoken from a fifteen year dream and realized:

You Can't Go Home

When you first met the woman known as Seer 1381 she had removed her mask and was concentrating desperately just to remain conscious. The woman begged you to help release her from the Seer Network and directed you to the facility of her signal's origin. When you returned the woman was very confused at how old she was, and had no idea who or where she was. She kept rambling on and on about a lady in her dream.

With only her Seer numerical designation to work with, you agreed to search the PPD archives for information about her. You learned that the woman's name was Catherine Douglas, and she was thirty years old. She had been a Seer for the last fifteen years of her life. Of her family you could only find that her father, Henry Douglas, was listed as an inmate at the B.A.F. for the last fifteen years as well.

Catherine, or Katie as she prefered to be called, used her psychic powers to teleport you into the B.A.F. where you rescued her father and escaped in the nick of time. Reunited with her father, Katie learned that he had not seen nor heard from her mother these past fifteen years, but he had never given up hope.

Katie, it seemed, was becoming more and more cognizant of her psychic abilities, and after some thought she realized that her mother must also be in the Seer Network. Her powers of insight discovered that her mother's location had been known to her the entire time. The lady in her dream was her mother, and had helped her leave the Network. She had also given her a clue as to where she was being held and Katie again teleported you to the location, only this time she came with you.

But what Katie was not prepared for was that her mother did not call to her for help, instead she was trying to warn Katie away. This became apparent when Katie's mother, Seer 0001 attacked you both and had no recognition that Katie was her daughter. After defeating her, Katie received a final thought from her mother, explaining that her last act of self was to free her daughter from the Network so she could live life. Katie took the message to heart repeating her mother's words: Survival is not the same as living. With what precious time that is fated you I would see that you live free rather than survive caged.

Part One: I Dared To Dream

Please... I need your help...

This Seer has somehow removed her visor and you can tell she is spending a considerable amount of willpower to talk to you.

I have seen... The thoughts of others. You are a good person in their eyes... and so that is why I ask you... to help me. Character, please, I need you to help me.

Help Seer 1381

I'm, I'm trapped. But if I concentrate, as I am now, then I can see what's trapping me... it's some sort of signal, in my head.

No... it's nearby. Somewhere in Four Gables... underground, very clean. Past the guards, there are some big glass tubes with numbers on them. My number... it's 1... 3... 8... 1. Turn it off. Please, before... before it pulls me back in.

Those Loyalists who are truly loyal to the safety and peace of Praetoria would do well to speak with Provost Marchand about events that are happening.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Taking... every... bit... of my strength... Hurry!

Mission Objective(s)

The facility isn't heavily guarded. That means there's probably an alarm.

  • Release Seer 1381 from the Network
    • ** Release Seer 1381 from the Network, 2 Minutes Before PPD Arrive!
    • Find Mission Exit

You deactivated Seer 1381's stasis chamber, thus enabling her to finally free herself from the Seer Network.

Enemies

  • Clockwork
  • Praetorian Police

Debriefing

I... I'm old... How did I get so old?

This woman doesn't appear to be a year over thirty.

Where is she? Where is the woman who showed me the door? The door out of my dreams?

Character, I have touched the minds of so many people during my time as a Seer, but I could never get to really know them. I'm glad that we met, because I consider you to be my first, and best friend. If you ever want to talk just think of talking to me and I'll contact you telepathically. Pretty cool, huh?

Part Two: Half Life

Character... What... What year is it? I'm so confused, how long have I been in that horrible dream?

Answer her questions as best you can.

I... I'm thirty years old!?

But... No... I... Where's my family? Where's my dad!? Why didn't he come find me?

Character, please, help me find my family, somebody, anyone who knows who I am. I'm so scared.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Have you found out who I am, Character? Have you found out what happened to my parents?

Mission Objective(s)

Your arrival at the PPD Precinct is hardly even noticed, one officer even holds the door open for you as you enter.

  • Search PPD Archives
    • Search PPD Records

You discovered Seer 1381's real name, and the whereabouts of her father.

Enemies

  • Praetorian Police
  • Sergeant Collins (Praetorian Police, Lieutenant)

Debriefing That's right! Katie! Everyone called me Katie! It's been so long since someone said my name I forgot what it was... That's weird, huh?

So, you said you found out where my dad is?

Character, you've changed my life forever. For that, I can never repay you, but I will always be in your debt. If I can do anything to aid you, let me know and I'll do my best.

Part Three: Throw Away The Key

My father is in jail? Why? What did he do? What did I do!?

This is not FAIR! I didn't do anything wrong!

Why is this happening to me? I just want to see my dad.

Rescue Katie's dad

What? You can't do that... Can you?

You're gonna bust my dad out of jail?

For the first time you see Katie Douglas smile. She starts to cry and hides her face in embarrassment.

Thank you, Character. I bet I look pathetic... a thirty year old woman crying about her dad...

Briefing

I've been recalling a lot of the training they uploaded into me, and I'm pretty sure I can teleport you. I know, crazy, huh?

All I need is to know where I'm sending you and I should be able to just, I dunno, put you there in a blink of an eye.

Alright, trust me Character, ok? If you don't trust me I'm gonna know and then I'll get nervous and I might screw this up.

Alright, now, picture the BAF clearly in your mind and I'll teleport you there.

Do you have it? ...is that it? Are you ready?

Are you sure about this? You've NEVER done this before.

You wuss! Come on.

Don't be afraid, you'll be perfectly safe, I promise!

Alright, fine, let's do this (Enter Mission)


Mission Objective(s)

She did it! Katie teleported you directly into the BAF... Maybe she does know what she's doing.

  • Rescue Henry Douglas from the BAF
    • Escape with Henry Douglas!

You rescued Katie Douglas' father from the BAF. The PPD were closing in on you and Henry Douglas from all directions. You were starting to wonder if Katie really could teleport you back and then, you were standing in front of her. Henry immediately realized that the Seer standing before him was his daughter, Catherine, and the two had a tear filled reunion. They have a lot of catching up to do.

Enemies

  • Praetorian Police

Debriefing

Katie smiles at you and then grimaces, squeezing her eyes shut tight. She pushes her fingertips against the bridge of her nose and exhales sharply.

Ow! Ow ow ow! Massive headache...

Ok... I'm ok, it's over. Whew. That - was - intense.

I think the teleporting did it, man, I need to be really careful with my powers, that hurt bad.

Finale

Dad's ok, Character, but he said they took mom and me fifteen years ago and this is the first he's seen or heard from either of us since.

Character... I... I know where my mom is. At least, I think I do. I need you to help me find her.

Help Katie find her mom

While you were in the B.A.F. I was thinking, a lot. Remember that lady in my dream, Character? The one who opened the door for me to leave? And I was talking about her after you freed me?

That was her. That was my mom. I couldn't see her, but now I know for sure that it was her. And I think I know where she is.

Don't you see, Character? If I'm psychic, and my dad isn't, then that means my mom must be psychic. She's a Seer, like I am. Now I just need to find her.

Let's see, she was contacting me in my dream. She woke me up. She showed me the door out...

That's the key, Character, the door! When the door in my dream closed, she was on the other side! She wasn't showing me just the way out, she was showing me where she was!

I know where to find her!

Briefing

Ready to get teleported again?

Are you sure you're okay?

I'm fine now, I'm okay.

Alright, let's go (Enter Mission)


Mission Objective(s)

This facility is massive.

  • Help Katie find her mom
    • Find Katie's Mother

You learned that Katie Douglas' mother, Alice Douglas, was Seer 0001, the first Seer.

Enemies

  • Praetorian Police
  • Seer 0001 (Seers Elite Boss)

Notable NPCs

  • Katie Douglas (Seers Lieutenant, Ally)
Katie Douglas, aka Seer 1381, has broken free of the Seer Network. She is now on a race against time to save her family before time runs out for her.
V archetypeicon stalker.png Ambush! Seer 0001 will call numerous allies to her aid during combat, and will vanish while she does this.
Attack...
Withdraw...
Restrain subjects.

Debriefing

Character... It's ok. I'm alright.

My mom... she... she was already gone. She was gone a long time ago. I understand that now.

Her last act of love was to free me from the Network. But I misinterpreted it as a call for help. She didn't close that door in my dream to show me where she was, she did it to try and keep me away.

Katie grimaces and puts a hand to her forehead

Before she left she told me, 'Survival is not the same as living. With what precious time that is fated you I would see that you live free rather than survive caged.'
