Part One: Party Crasher

Briefing

I've been working for weeks on this story, Character, but I hit a brick wall. Well, to be more precise, I ran into a bit of problem called The Destroyers.

Hold on, let me back up and bring you up to speed. Don't worry, I'm not recording you, that would get us both into more trouble than we can afford.

Ok, so, here it is. I've been trying to figure out who is supplying the Destroyers with their Fixadine and what their apparent beef is with Praetor White. As you can imagine it hasn't been very easy to interview these guys, I even had a few psychos take a swing or two at me, good thing my brother and I took boxing lessons a few years back. Whatever, that isn't important. What is important is that I need your help to get the last bit of my story from the Destroyers here in Imperial City. Do you think you could help me out?

  • Help Jennifer Flores with the Destroyers

Oh! That's so awesome! Thank you so much. You rock!

This is what I need you to do. Take this recorder device and question the Destroyers in Imperial City until you find out where they are getting their Fixadine from.

Once you figure that out, then comes the hard part. Bust into the Fixadine den and look for clues and question everyone you can. I have a theory that someone in the government may be supplying these guys, but to what end, I can't imagine.

Oh, I'm so happy you are willing to help me. Man, I was freaking out there for awhile. I wasn't sure if I'd find anyone.

Jessica gives you a small recorder to tape any confessions you might get out of the Destroyers.

Recording Device
Jessica Flores gave you this small recording device in order to capture the audio and video confessions of various Destroyers as you questioned them about their history and who was supplying them with Fixadine.
Find the Fixadine source

Unnecessary Solicitation

You can't just go up and ask a guy crushed out on Fixadine where he got his fix from. You're going to have to play rough with 'em first.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Find the Fixadine Source
    • Defeat 5 Destroyers

You learned the location of a Destroyers' Fixadine den here in Logos.

Enemies

Destroyers

Acid Black's Fixadine Den
The Destroyers you met on the street told you all about their big dog, Acid Black. Apparently he controls the flow of 'crush' to these maniacs. Smashing in his den will not only get some lowlifes off the street, but it'll give you the opportunity to ask Acid Black who he gets his supply from.
Search Acid Black's Fixadine Den

Unnecessary Solicitation

The longer you wait the more likely word is going to get back to the Destroyers that someone told you where the Fixadine den is.

Mission Objective(s)

Map: SKULLS_WAREHOUSE_RAVE

The music and lights mix with the heady smell of sweat and Fixadine in the air. There's absolutely no way you are walking in here without a fight.

  • Search Acid Black's Fixadine Den
    • Find Evidence
    • Defeat Acid Black

You took down Acid Black, one of the toughest Destroyers you have yet faced, and gathered some disturbing information.

Enemies

Destroyers

Notable NPCs

Acid Black is quite simply a psychopath. He rules over a large group of the Destroyers with one part iron fist, ten parts insanity. Don't let his moments of calm fool you, he is a complete maniac. A calculative and intelligent negotiator one minute, a car hurling berserker the next.
Acid Black's Fixadine Supplier
After soundly thrashing Acid Black he laughed when you asked who his supplier was and he had this to say.

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

Heh... Heh, heh. Oh, man, it's too good not to share just a little taste... Let's just say, Emperor Cole has no idea what his Praetors are up to...

Acid Black smiled as a memory surfaced. He then looked to you, eyes smiling and finished.

... Or what she is capable of.

His eyes widened with amusement as you pieced together two possibilities: Praetor Tilman or Praetor Duncan

Shipping Information
You found shipping information showing that this crate full of Fixadine was shipped from one of Neuron's labs in Neutropolis to Cole Memorial Hospital here in Imperial City. Obviously it never made it to its intended destination. Or did it?

Debriefing

Tell me you found something good. Oh, I can tell you found out something good.

Jessica reviews all of the recording you did in an almost catatonic state. When she's done it takes her awhile to say anything.

I... I can't believe this. This is AMAZING!

Unable to contain her joy she gives you a big hug and is all smiles.

Alright, I just have to do some last minute editing on my piece with these new facts, then I'm going to send a copy to TPN.

We're going to blow the doors right off their hinges, Character!

You're an inspiration to the Resistance, Character. Without your help, the injustices of this government might have gone unchecked. Thank you for validating my belief that I'm doing something right.

If we keep working together to stop the injustices in this world, we might be able to take our future back. Here is my number so that you can contact me at any time.
