Information
Praetor
Being the daughter of a famous and universally loved super heroine never sat well with Praetor Duncan. She rebelled from a very early age and when she hit puberty and her powers kicked in she decided enough was enough. After killing her mother, the infamous Miss Liberty, she started making a name for herself. She is now a respected Praetor, although there are some who believe she does not deserve such a high title.

Initial Contact
Well well, if it isn't Character. You can imagine that I wasn't surprised when I heard you were here in Dark Astoria. After all, you're the talk of the Primal Earth town, aren't you? Mr / Mrs big bad Incarnate, acting like the savior of the world with your new powers. Today, you and I are talking in order to deal with this little problem that these Primal people have, which is Diabolique.
In case you're unaware, I don't know how you wouldn't know, I am Praetor Duncan, of Praetoria. Now, let's get down to business, shall we?
- What do you know about Diabolique?
Diabolique is an evil ghost that doesn't belong in the world of the living. After she gained her freedom in First Ward, she must've fled our dimension to come to this one.
My guess is that she wasn't too sure what she was looking for when she arrived, but she sensed the power of this Mot growing stronger. Diabolique is somehow working together with Mot now... that part I have no idea about. I do know that her presence here is responsible for the Talons of Vengeance showing up. They've been tracking her down for who knows how long.
From what myself and the Olympian have looked into, it seems that the Talons recruited the Knives to purge this world of so-called 'injustice'. I guess those harpies had their eye off of Primal Earth for far too long and realized there was a lot of work to do!
- Do you know where to find Diabolique?
If Night Ward is completed
Well well, if it isn't Character. You can imagine that I wasn't surprised when I heard you were here in Dark Astoria. You and I have quite the history together, don't we? Mm, there was that time at the bottom of Cole's tower... you gave me quite the 'thrashing', didn't you?
But, that's neither here nor there. Today, you and I are talking in order to deal with this little problem that these Primal people have, which is Diabolique.
- You must be out of your mind if you think I'd work with you, Duncan.
- Do you think I'm Tilman, Character. Now, she is someone who is, or rather was, out of her mind, don't you agree?
- No, I'm just manipulative and diabolical, but in this case, I'm willing to put that aside for that greater good nonsense. 'Emperor' Cole has ordered me to come down here with an Olympian and track down Diabolique. Of course, he said it's because of White's failure to keep Diabolique's amulet safe. Haha!
- The whole thing doesn't really matter, anyway. Praetoria's days are numbered. Battle Maiden's gone, no one knows what happened to Neuron and Bobcat, Siege and Nightstar are old news, Marauder's gone into self-exile, Anti-Matter wandered off, and Praetor Tilman's dead. There's not a lot of us left, but stupid Cole still thinks it's his responsibility to save this world from Diabolique. Can you believe it?
- I should've known she'd resurface after recovering her talisman.
- Yes, well, I didn't imagine she'd skip off to Primal Earth after getting her talisman back. I was really hoping she'd continue making a scene in First Ward; that way I could've seen Cole rip her little ghostly head off her flimsy ghostly body and watched her ectoplasm ooze out.
- I guess she was smarter than I took her for, running away to Primal earth. Though if she was smart, she would've gone to a place where Cole wasn't currently invading.
- Let's just skip the bantering, Duncan. What do you know about Diabolique? (loops to above)
- What do you know about Diabolique's presence here? (loops to above)
Greeting
I thought Praetoria had a lot of problems. People on Primal Earth seem to know how to really screw things up.
Too Busy
Character, a girl really hates it when someone tries to ask them for something when they're already way too busy with other things.

Souvenir
Diabolique's Taunts
You remember Diabolique's taunts against you, claiming she was better than you, that you could never stop her. She continued her words right up until she was devoured by Mot. The ordeal with her made you wonder...
To What End for Power
You previously destroyed the Knives of Vengeance, easing the rate at which Mot's power was advancing. You ended up working with Praetor Duncan after discovering Diabolique was somehow involved with Mot and the Banished Pantheon.
In your search for Diabolique, you discovered that the Circle of Thorns had actually fought Mot once before, back in the time of Cimerora. You also found out that Diabolique intended to somehow use the power of Mot for her own gain, seeking to gain power beyond that which she ever had.
You were also reunited with Scirocco, who had returned to help finish the fight against Mot. In the end, Diabolique's power was not enough to stop you. In her final moments, she cursed you before being absorbed by Mot, who was assumedly displeased with Diabolique's actions.
You met with Ajax, who told you that if you were going to stand a chance against Mot, you would have to travel back to Cimerora, back to the time where the Circle of Thorns first fought Mot.

Praetor Duncan's Personal Story
With Diabolique destroyed, Praetor Duncan decided to make her way back to Praetoria. However, her trip was rudely interrupted by the power of Mot, who flung her back into the depths of the city.
Praetor Duncan confronted the sins of her past, all of them revealing all the wrong and diabolical acts she has done. Duncan, however, was not bothered by all of these words. She was bothered, however, when she encountered Diabolique, who was now transformed by the power of Mot. Before she could defend herself, Diabolique used the power of Mot to absorb Praetor Duncan, claiming that there were plans in store for her... Template:Mission:Praetor Duncan - One Loose End
