Description

Annoying Automaton

It's unclear why Nemesis chose to use this Jaeger automaton as a propaganda mouthpiece, rather than utilizing its combat potential. It's possible that Nemesis has begun to value psychological warfare as much as the conventional kind. Or, perhaps, this unit's weapon systems are malfunctioning, and he is simply making the best of a failed creation. However, the more that 'Heldenjaeger' (as this thing calls itself) speaks to you, the more you begin to suspect a more disturbing possibility: that this automaton decided to cheer on Nemesis publicly, in a show of loyalty to its master.

Content Not Purchased

Too Low Level

This Jaeger automaton appears to be moving erratically, and its speakers are blaring a brassy marching song reminiscent of Ride of the Valkyries. It doesn't seem to be taking a threatening stance, or brandishing weapons of any sort.

When you approach, the music modulates slightly. Instead of echoing German, the choir in the song begins to sing in heavily-accented English instead:

Not level 40, not level 40, too weak for our Lord to even subdue. Nemesis rising, Nemesis rising, fighting powers much greater than you!

Souvenir

Antikythera Fragment

When you handed the rest of the Antikythera to Positron for study, you elected to hold onto this small fragment. It serves as a reminder of the events that news organizations have already dubbed...

Brass Tuesday

The invasion began shortly after you left James Harvan's lab. Nemesis automatons, empowered by the energy stolen from Pandora's Box, descended upon City Hall in a bid to control the heart of Paragon City.

You and Positron planned out Paragon's defenses and moved to intercept the invaders, with some success. However, as time dragged on, more and more of Nemesis's forces were appearing in the city. It was clear something needed to be done to take the fight to Nemesis himself.

You returned to Harvan's lab with the Antikythera, hoping to find some way of using its connection to Pandora's Box against Nemesis. You discovered a way to use the device in his lab to 'empower' the Antikythera, enabling it to absorb any Pandora energy that wasn't otherwise contained.

Your efforts were just in time, as Nemesis's full-scale invasion had begun. He sent his greatest creation, the Nemesis Monstrosity, to bring Paragon's defenses to its knees. You made use of the Antikythera's new capabilities, and with each automaton you defeated, you gathered more of the power from Pandora's Box.

With your newfound strength, you faced down the Monstrosity, and destroyed it. However, upon doing so, a massive surge of power was absorbed by the Antikythera. It proved too much, and the Antikythera shattered, allowing all of the energy it had absorbed to dissipate. The mainstay of the Nemesis army, however, had been broken, and Paragon City was safe once again.
