Last Man Standing

Merit Rewards: This activity awards 9 Reward Merits.

Souvenir: Bowler Hat


This is a bowler hat worn by Pitbull, the top Enforcer for the Marcone Family in Port Oakes. It's a reminder of a story you like to call:

Last Man Standing

You're not sure what Emil Marcone originally wanted you to do because you walked in on an ambush by the Verandi family. You managed to fight through the Family thugs and get to Emil, who swore that the Verandi family will pay for their attack.

Emil Marcone decided to retaliate by getting you to kidnap Vanessa Verandi, the daughter of Guido Verandi, head of the Verandi family in Port Oakes.

Emil Marcone had passed word that he had a reward for you at a warehouse, but it ended up being an ambush by Family there. You managed to fight through them and find a note from Emil Marcone to his lieutenant giving the order to take you out.

The Verandi and Marcone families had both decided to take you out. You decided to force a truce by capturing the heads of the Family to show that you can't be messed with. You found out where Guido Verandi makes his rounds and captured him, then did the same with Emil Marcone.

In the end, Guido Verandi and Emil Marcone agreed to call a truce, but their lieutenants had seized power. By taking down both Bloody Vicious and Pitbull you showed you were tougher than any Family in Port Oakes.


Talk with Emil Marcone

Briefing

Okay, here's the deal. The head of the Marcone family here in Port Oakes wants to talk with you about doing a bit of work for them. Head over to their office to meet up with him.

Holy smokes! The Verandi family attacked the Marcone family? There's gonna be hell to pay!

Kidnap Vanessa Verandi

Briefing

The Marcone family is really enraged by this attack by the Verandi family, and is looking for a bit of payback. Since you did a good job busting Verandi heads in that last battle, Emil Marcone wants you to help him get his revenge. You heard of Vanessa Verandi? She's the daughter of Guido 'The Mooch' Verandi, head of the Verandi family. She's coming in on a ship from the mainland right now. Emil wants you to kidnap Vanessa Verandi to show the Verandi family that the Marcone family means business.

You do this one and you'll get in good with the Marcone family.

Briefing

Emil Marcone is pleased with the work you've done for him. He says he's got your payment in a warehouse at this address. Head to the warehouse to retrieve your reward.

Emil will make sure you get what you deserve. Maybe you can pass on some of the reward to your old pal Billie Heck?

The door to the warehouse is freshly painted with a Hellion gang tag. Looks like the Hellions decided this warehouse would make a good hideout!

Notes

  • You may ignore all the Hellions if you want, you don't need to fight them at all.

Crumpled letter
This is a crumpled letter in a crate. It is from Emil Marcone, telling one of his lieutenants to deal with you!
Ambush! Get Character!

This mission is all about defeating the 3 waves of ambushers that will spawn after you get the crumpled letter from the crate. Unfortunately it is possible that an ambusher might get stuck in the map geometry (I had one get stuck on a ramp) and require you to go out and find him to complete the mission.

Debriefing

They tried to ice ya? Oh man, this ain't good. It looks like the Marcone family want to dispose of their tool, and the Verandi family want to take you out for kidnapping Vanessa. This ain't good for me either, y'know. I have a rep I'm trying to build here!

Capture Guido 'The Mooch' Verandi

Briefing

You interested in ending this whole Family vendetta against you? I got some info for ya then. Guido 'The Mooch' Verandi is making collections around Port Oakes, and I know his route. If you capture Guido, maybe I can set up a meeting of minds between you and Emil Marcone.

Keep in mind Guido Verandi got where he is by playing hardball. You might want to take some backup with you.

Guido Verandi

Mission Acceptance

Rough 'em up a bit, will ya? It'll show the Family you mean business.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Guido Verandi still has his men after ya. Capture him and we'll see if we can beat some sense into him.

Mission Objective(s)

You hear loud threats being made in the distance as Guido makes his 'collections'.

  • Capture Guido 'The Mooch' Verandi

You captured Guido 'The Mooch' Verandi.

Whoa, you got Guido! This'll stop the Verandi family from attacking.

Capture Emil Marcone

Briefing

You got Guido Verandi, but now you gotta get Emil Marcone. Marcone's a tough customer, but if you wanna get the Family off your back, you gotta sit him and Guido down and force a truce. Emil often likes to hang out at one of the local casinos he runs called the Hook & Anchor. Head over there and capture Emil Marcone!

Like Guido Verandi, Emil Marcone is a tough customer. Consider that a warning.

Hook & Anchor casino

Capturing Emil should take the Marcone family off your back and force a truce.

Take down Bloody Vicious and Pitbull

Briefing

Okay, it sounds like Guido Verandi and Emil Marcone are willing to make a truce with you. But we got other problems. When Guido and Emil disappeared, a couple of their lieutenants took over! The only way this is going to end is if you take down both Bloody Vicious and Pitbull.

They ain't no pushovers. You'd better bring some heavies with ya!

Mission Acceptance

You do this and it'll show 'em that you can't be messed with!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Debriefing

That was amazing! You sure showed 'em that Character and Billie Heck can't be messed with!

Give 'em Hellion!

Merit Rewards: This activity awards 8 Reward Merits.

Souvenir: Pentagram medallion

This is a pentagram medallion worn by 3K Kelvin, a power Hellions gang leader. This is a souvenir from a story you like to call:

Give'em Hellion!

Billie Heck said that Hellions had stolen some crates of goods from a Family warehouse, and that it's a good opportunity to gain favor with the Family. You proceeded to take out the entire Hellion hideout, only to discover there were no actual Family goods anywhere.

Billie came clean and admitted that the Hellions were after him for stealing a magical artifact from them. Billie decided to make a deal with you: take out the Hellion bosses and he'd give you the artifact he stole. After assaulting the main Hellion base, you discovered that the Hellions had called upon the help of one of their heavies known as 3K Kelvin, who was en route to Port Oakes. Billie was unwilling to give up the artifact until 3K Kelvin was taken down.

You proceeded to the base that 3K Kelvin had taken over, and managed to overcome him and his crew. In the end, Billie made good on his deal, giving you the promised magical artifact.

Defeat all Hellions

Briefing

You heard of the Hellions? I'm sure you've seen 'em around Port Oakes. Anyway, they stole a bunch of crates of goods from the Family, and the Family wants payback. This would be a great way to gain favour with the Family and maybe get more jobs from them. I managed to find out where the Hellions were hiding out. Head to the Hellions base where they're hiding the goods, and take them out!

Mission Acceptance

Don't leave any of them standing! Take out everyone in that Hellion base!

Unnecessary Solicitation

What are you waitin' for? Those Hellions are still out there!

Mission Objective(s)

You kick up dust from the floor as you enter this run-down warehouse.

Missing Crates
Despite the fact that the Hellions supposedly stole a bunch of goods from the Family, the crates are nowhere to be found.

Debriefing

You cleared 'em out? Excellent! They won't be bothering me... er... the Family again.

Defeat all villains in office

Briefing

Okay, so those Hellions didn't steal anything from the Family. Yah, I know I played ya, but I had no choice! Y'see, they been sendin' guys after me since I left them - yeah, I was a Hellion. I managed to steal the magical artifact from 'em, and I thought that it was my ticket into the big time. I still ain't struck it big yet, and the Hellions are still after me!

Tell ya what... to make up for it, I'll make ya a deal. If you help me take out the Hellion bosses that are after me, I'll give you the artifact I stole. We got a deal?

Mission Acceptance

You help me take out these guys, and the artifact is yours!

Unnecessary Solicitation

C'mon! If those Hellion bosses get me, you can kiss your reward goodbye!

The Hellion's Threat
As you take down the last of the Hellions, the leader screams at you 'You're goin' down, you hear me! We sent for 3K Kelvin, and he's going to burn you but good!'

Debriefing

Alright, you took out these Hellion leaders, but 3K Kelvin is coming from Paragon City! I'm not giving you the artifact until you take him out as well!

Defeat 3K Kelvin and guards

Briefing

It looks like the Hellions are still ticked about that artifact I stole. And sending you in to beat down the leaders didn't do much to mend the situation. They've sent 3K Kelvin after me; he's the toughest customer I ever met when I was working for the Hellions! I'm scared, Character. Real scared.

If you take out 3K Kelvin, I'll give you the magical artifact that I have! I'll warn you now that 3K Kelvin is one tough customer, so you might wanna look for some muscle to back you up.

3K Kelvin's warehouse

Mission Acceptance

It sounds like 3K Kelvin and his gang took over a warehouse in Port Oakes. You take him out and the artifact is yours.

Unnecessary Solicitation

C'mon! Take out 3K Kelvin before he starts hunting for me! Mission Objective(s)

This warehouse has recently been overrun by a Hellions gang.

  • Defeat 3K Kelvin and guards

Debriefing

Thanks for helping me out, Character.

Take this artifact. I'm glad to be rid of it! Don't know why there's such a huge fuss about it anyway...

Temporary Power

Upon returning to Billie at the end of the mission you will receive the Summoning Amulet temporary power:

Summoning Amulet Summon Imp
This is a gold amulet with various mystic symbols etched in silver. After saving his life from his former Hellion allies, Billie gives you this amulet that was the cause of all the contention. It allows you to summon a Fire Imp for a short duration. This may be done five times before the magic is exhausted.

Billie Heck does not have any regular missions out of his Story Arcs.
