New Contact(s)

• Hinckley Rasmussen

I know a rather interesting fellow named Hinckley Rasmussen. He works as a researcher for the Midnight Squad and takes an interest in helping heroes like you fight the Tsoo and the Warriors. Hinckley has access to Training Enhancements.

He is a bit eccentric, but Hinckley knows his stuff.

• Kirsten Woods

I've been asked to keep this very quiet, but someone from the CIA wants to meet you. Her name is Kirsten Woods and she knows quite a bit about the Sky Raiders. She also thinks there may be more to the Lost than meets the eye. As a CIA operative, Agent Woods has access to Training Enhancements.

Keep a low profile when you are working with Kirsten.

• Laura Brunetti

Laura Brunetti could be a useful contact to you, Character. Her supernatural library is unmached, and she is an expert on the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. She has Training Enhancements.

Laura has a keen mind and loves to get to the bottom of things. I'm certain you will find work with her enlightening.

Information

Anthropologist

Piper Irving recently graduated from Paragon University with a PhD in Anthropology. Unlike many of her classmates, she decided to stay in the city to continue her research. Her particular area of focus is the city's religion-based criminal organizations. After a few near-death experiences, she has learned that it's much better to work with heroes than on her own. She is often consulted because of her expertise on the belief systems and practices of groups like the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. She's very enthusiastic about her work and is always looking for new help with her research.

Find Suzanne Trent (20-23)

Briefing

In the wake of the Rikti War, there's been a resurgence of all kinds of mysticism. This has helped in some cases, even providing the city with new hope. But it has also caused a great deal of trouble. One new cult calls itself the Banished Pantheon. They have some sort of dark power; they can animate the dead and call spirits from beyond the grave! A reporter named Suzanne Trent was investigating them, but now she's gone missing. Please find Suzanne Trent as soon as possible.

Banished Pantheon are in these caves!

Mission Acceptance

The creatures we have seen the most frequently have been dubbed Husks; they seem to be made from the animated bodies of the dead.

Unnecessary Solicitation

I am really counting on you to return Suzanne Trent to us safely.

Mission Objective(s)

Somewhere below, a woman's terrified screams echo in the darkness.

Suzanne Trent

Upon Rescue: Take this! It's the idol of one of their gods!

Spirit of Pain (Ventiir/A'Taar)

Before Combat: Lughebu says to send the woman's soul to them. They shall consume her and all that she knows.
Combat Start: More intruders! More food for our masters!

Notes

• The name of the hostage varies. Possible names are Edith Frasier, Marion Ford and Suzanne Trent.
• Even though the name of the hostage can change, the name in the description of the temporary power received will be Suzanne Trent.

Temporary Power:

When you rescue Suzanne Trent, she will give you the Idol of Lughebu temporary power.

Idol of Lughebu

Melee, Moderate Damage, Negative, Self +Hit Points, Foe -Accuracy

When you rescued Suzanne Trent, she gave you this idol she found in the Pantheon's lair. While carrying it, you have the ability to drain the life from nearby foes, increasing your own Hit Points. The idol must be returned to the MAGI vault within 3 real days.

Suzanne Trent's Story

When you rescued Suzanne Trent, she said:

'I've seen a lot of horrible things since I started this investigation. This Banished Pantheon cult, they're inhuman! They worship some kind of lost god-like beings, horrible prehistoric entities that feed on pain. Their chief god is Lughebu, who demands that they learn about all beings of power. Here, take this idol I discovered. I have a feeling there's some sort of dark magic about it.

Debriefing

According to Suzanne Trent, the Banished Pantheon is investigating all beings of power. I must say, that phrase has an ominous ring to it. Depending on the definition, it could include heroes like yourself. Template:Mission Common Recover idols from the Banished Pantheon

Hit the streets and defeat a few Pantheon cultists (20-24)

Briefing

The Banished Pantheon have been spreading their dark forces over the city. People are afraid, and I understand why. I need a hero to hit the streets and defeat a few Pantheon cultists. They've been seen often on Talos Island, and I've heard that they still mill around the Dark Astoria Hazard Gate. I would not go in there at your current power, though. Evil has taken root there.

Mission Acceptance

Thanks for taking this on, Character. Be careful. The Pantheon is a powerful adversary.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Those Pantheon cultists are still roaming the streets. I need you to take care of that.

Mission Objective(s)

• Combat Banished Pantheon menace
  • Defeat 20 Banished Pantheon

You have decreased the number of Banished Pantheon cultists roaming the streets.

Enemies

Banished Pantheon

Debriefing

The Pantheon cultists have grown fearsomely strong, Character. It's good that we have brave people like you who can fight them.
