Missions
Agree to form a task force
Briefing
Hi! I guess you know by now that we sorceresses have been fighting with the Red Caps for a long time. A long, long time. Ever since they came to our settlement in Roanoke, back in 1588. That was shortly after the Fir Bolg came to our lands. They were running away from their enemies in Ireland, the Tuatha de Dannan. We formed a cautious friendship, but we had no idea that the Red Caps had followed them all the way across the sea!
They trapped us here, killed all the men, and watched our suffering for the last four hundred years! And we finally found a way to get rid of them!
But if you really think the spell we're going to use may hurt other magic life, you might be able to convince our leader to change her plans. Of course, it won't be easy. My elders have had several centuries to harden their hearts against outsiders.
If you can defeat our leader, Mary MacComber, we'll listen to what you have to say. Otherwise, we'll go ahead with our plan.
Mary will really test you. I think she'll surprise you quite a bit.
If you can survive long enough, you'll show Mary you're a force to be reckoned with. If you manage to survive the entire ordeal, we'll have something special for you.
Mission Objective(s)
You feel a wise presence watching over you as you step into the spirit realm.
- Defeat Mary MacComber (10 times)
You defeated Mary MacComber for good!
Primary Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Mary MacComber (Cabal Arch Villain)
Trust doesn't come easily to Mary MacComber, the leader of the Cabal. She's been in Croatoa too long. Still, your reputation precedes you, and she is willing to listen. If you can impress her in combat, that is.
Badge
You have impressed Mary MacComber, leader of the Cabal, by defeating her ten times. Though some members of the Cabal may still fear you, others will work as your allies.
Costume Part
Upon gaining the Ten Times the Victor Badge, the Witches Hat costume part will be unlocked.

Free Amy from the Red Caps
Briefing
You've earned Mary's trust, and now there's a task she'd like your help with. One of our most powerful sorceresses has been captured by the Red Caps. Her name's Amy. If you could free Amy from the Red Caps, it would go a long way toward improving your reputation with the Cabal.
Amy's one of my favorite Aunts. Please take good care of her.
Mission Objective(s)
The moment you step into the Red Caps' den, you know you're being watched.
- Free Amy from the Red Caps
You freed Amy.
Primary Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Amy Jonsson (Hostage, Ally)
When you rescued Amy from the Red Caps, she told you:
'Thank you, kind heroes. The Red Caps have held me captive for many months. They have been practicing some spell on me, to drain my strength, and I have just barely managed to hold on. I suspect they have darker plans in mind. To cause suffering is more than enough motive for these creatures, but they often have long term goals.
Debriefing
Thank you so, so much! If I lost my aunt Amy, I just don't know what I'd do! You're really proving yourself a friend to the Cabal. Listen, I don't mean to be rude, but could you leave me alone for a little while? I'm feeling pretty tired.
You are the best heroes I've ever seen!
Get rid of the Red Caps
Briefing
According to Amy, the Red Caps are trying something really nasty. I don't know what it is yet, but I was just told that they've invaded my house! If you could get down there and get rid of the Red Caps for me, I'd sure appreciate it. And maybe you'll learn something while you're there.
I hope you hurry back. I've been feeling real tired lately, and I just can't take the stress.
Mission Objective(s)
This underground den smells of cinnamon and cloves.
- Defeat all Red Caps
You removed the Red Caps from Katie's home, but learned something terrible.
Primary Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Wormtail (Fiend)
When you defeated Wormtail, he smirked:
'It's the end for your witchy friends! Katie is ours! When we have her soul, Cabal lose everything. All hope, all happiness! We take their last child!'
Debriefing
So that's why I've been so tired lately? The Red Caps are sucking out my soul? That's terrible! And not just for me. I am the very last of the Cabal. If something happens to me, well, it'll take all hope away from my friends and aunties. There's no telling what they'll do if the Red Caps succeed.
Free Katie's soul
Briefing
Listen closely, because I don't have much strength left. I believe the Red Caps have taken almost all of my soul. And I need you to free it. Go to the Grim Vale, where the Red Caps have battled my people all these centuries. I am certain that my soul is trapped there, in the spirit realm. My people will help you in your quest, but I believe only you have the strength to set me free.
Thank you. I'll try to hang on.
Mission Objective(s)
A thunderous growl echoes across the vale
- Free Katie's soul
You saved Katie's soul from the Red Caps!
Primary Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Mona (Hostage, Ally, Sorceress of the Winds)
- Katie's Spirit (Hostage, Ally, Hero)
Katie's spirit has been trapped here by the spiteful Red Caps. As the youngest of their number, Katie represents the Cabal's hope for the future. If her spirit remains trapped here, they are likely to turn away from all goodness and light in the world.
Temporary Power:
Upon completing this mission, you will earn Amy's Ward temporary power.
Summon Amy Jonsson
This small amulet, given to you by the young witch Katie, will allow you to summon the astral projection of Amy Jonsson five times. You may only manifest one projection of Amy at a time. If you try to summon a second while the first is still active, the amulet will fail and lose a charge.
Badge
Upon completing this mission, you will earn the Cabalist Badge.
Debriefing
Thank you. You've brought hope back to my people. There will always be some who do not trust you, but I will always be in your debt. I hope someday we will find a way to be free of the Red Caps forever. Until then, at least I know that there are people in the world who can balance the Red Caps' cruelty with unflinching virtue.
I'm not the only believer, either. Amy wants to help you in your future travels. She's asked me to teach you a spell that will allow you to summon her five times. I hope she can help to protect you from the demons that always haunt the paths of the righteous.
Notes Previously, players could do this Task Force, and by skipping the first mission, and choose the Rare Recipe end reward, which gets a nice Recipe in less than 30 minutes. This has been put a stop to by Issue 10, where now you have to defeat Mary macomber all 10 times to proceed.
