These are the objects that may be found in the Police Radio band's retrieval missions. Some are relevant to the storyline and provide clues. Many others have Ingame References or Easter Eggs.
Many of them are also present in the Rogue Isles Protector missions. Notice the descriptions are different for a same object.
Legends say that if you find all 7 of the Dragoon Balls, it will summon a mighty mystical cavalryman who can grant you a wish. But this is only one of them, so it's really not that useful.
This densely packed computer core could be used as the AI for a very advanced robot. Some even think that a human consciousness could be updated into one.
It's here, and still deactivated. This bomb uses a strange Rikti power source in an out-of-control reaction to produce an immense amount of damage. Good thing you got to it.
The Rikti used some kind of telepathy to communicate with their semi-organic technology. Before the Rikti War was over, human scientists were trying to learn how this worked, so that they could copy it or jam it.
It's an odd crystal with a thin violet line running through the middle. You have no idea how to read it, but there's a large "spike", like on a heart monitor, a few millimeters to the right. Does that mean some major event is coming soon?
These files contain accounts of truly extraordinary events. And in a world where superhumans fly through the sky, that's saying something. Entire departments in government agencies filled with top men work on this kind of thing. With the knowledge in here, someone unscrupulous could have caused a great deal of trouble.
Formula 13 was one of the last of the Cold War attempts to create a super-trooper serum that could turn normal people into superhuman soldiers. It never worked right, but stolen data from the program helped in the creation of Superadyne.
These are cells from one of the giant monsters the late hero Talos fought back in the 1960s. No one has been able to unlock their genetic secrets and control the effect of the experiments since, but science continues to try.
This ancient staff doesn't seem to have any real mystic power, but you never can tell with these things. Best to get it out of evil's hands and to the proper authorities.
This alloy of Nonsuchium and Yeahritium is an extraordinary material. It's a good thing that you were able to get it away from the bad guys.
The cultural and historical importance of these silver coins recovered from the bottom of the sea far outweigh their monetary value. But some would say that their magical value is greater still.
These prototype artificial intelligences are dangerous foir their ability to be molded. In the wrong hands, they could become free-roaming cyber terrorists, or worse. But thanks to you, they have a chance to become productive members of the electronic world.
Mot was the Carthaginian god of death and sterility, before the city of Carthage was destroyed by ancient Rome. For some reason, mystically oriented villains seem attracted to Mot's few remaining artifacts.
It's said once every hundred years the genie Serafina casts her old veil aside to find a new one. Many unscrupulous sorcerers would do anything to get their hands on it in the hope they could use it against the benevolent genie.
These are blueprints for a spaceship, first designed back in the 1970s. It was designed to reach the moon, but you have to wonder what a group of villains would want to get to the moon for?
The all-purpose virus is a cyber-somatic virus, a computer virus with the illogical ability to infect both computers and humans. This sample has been deactivated, but it could be used to create another outbreak.
Hmm. It's red and it's a ruby and it makes you feel weak when you hold it. This is definitely one for MAGI. Heck, maybe it's a good thing if a villain steals this from the vault!
The Blue Oyster is a giant sapphire. Rumors say it can be used to summon a giant monster from the depths, or contact elder beings called "The Invisible Ones". Whatever it's supposed to do, it's best that the bad guys don't have it anymore.
This is supposed to the holy text of an alien religion from the future, but no one's been able to decipher it. Legends say no one will be able to interpret it properly until the year 2260.
This vicious looking mummified claw looks like it came from a demon or worse. Legends say that you need a truly wicked heart to use it, so it's a good thing that you recovered it.
This old crown supposedly came from an old cult in the Rogue Isles. Whatever strange energies it possesses, it's important that you get it out of the bad guys' hands.
The blade feels heavy in your hand. Visions of demons and ancient ziggurats dance in your mind. You feel a dark and malevolent presence creeping into your mind, urging you to put the blade to your throat. You have to fight with all of your will just to put the thing down, bu the images won't fade until is sealed away.
This strange dagger has been sought for years by Nepalese monks, who want it returned as a holy artifact. It's supposed to have the power to slay demons, when wielded by the right person.
This painting is done completely in gold leaf, and supposedly shows an island in the ocean that once had a portal to another world.
This isn't so much a hand, as a big elaborately decorated box. The thing doesen't seem to respond to anything, like it's just waiting for its true owner to return.
This is disgusting. It looks like some kind of naked pygmy with blue skin and green hair and eyes and smells like rotten eggs. You're pretty sure it's culturally relevant somehow, to someone.
From the more exotic areas where information technology and beverage engineering overlap comes the Liquid Computer. By utilizing laminar fluid flow and self-assembling nanotech scaffolds, this liquid can perform more calculations that a supercomputer, all in a 2-liter bottle. And it's caffeine free!
It's said this man-shaped root screams when torn from the earth. This one was already been picked, so it's not so bad.
It may look like a high-tech egg-beater, but this thing is supposed to be able to radically alter people's thought processes. No one's even gotten it to work right, but the threat of it alone has caused trouble to this city in the past.
Dr. Don Gee was a famous mystic of the 1600s who supposedly died during a mysterious sea voyage. These notes, written in cipher, supposedly detail the mystic rituals he used to secure his fortunes at the cost of others.
This is an Oberation Oscillthruster! And they'd thrown it away like a piece of trash. Those villains must not have had any idea what this was. You'd better get this back, and quickly.
The Over-Taking MicroChip Remote Controller, model E, is a self-propelled robot capable of intercepting a vehicle and over-riding its internal guidance systems. They're very dangerous in the wrong hands, but excellent for handling out of control vehicles.
This unique weapon was created by a Japanese scientist to combat aquatic giant monsters. Its hideous effects caused it to be banned by UN treaty.
The Phased Linear Oscillation Transducer is a miraculous device, capable of producing such a variety of effects that many find it simply unbelievable. However, overusing a P.L.O.T. device can have serious consequences, and the more egregious uses can strain the very fabric of reality. P.L.O.T devices have fallen out of favor overall, but many a young and reckless pioneer has picked up a well-used P.L.O.T. device and run with it.
It's a painting of Lee Towers in Paragon City, but it seems alive. Clouds move, people walk about, heroes fly by, and even the time changes. Rumor is you can use the painting to get inside, but no one knows how to do it.
Wow. That is one big claw. You'd hate to imagine the bird this sucker came from.
This scroll was penned by those who believe that life here began "out there", in the depths of space. It talks about the lost colonies of humanity that are supposed to live among the stars.
These strange marked rocks come from India. They glow in a warm light when you bring them close together.
This tiny sliver of crystal must be it. It's a small shard of one of the Crystals of Serafina, magic gems owned by the famous genie. You can feel it pulsing with a warm and friendly eldritch energy, almost like it's happy you rescued it.
Urns, pots and a couple of bronze weapons. While they don't have much overt mystical power, a properly trained and prepared wizard could use them for some very dangerous purposes.
Not to be confused with the illegal street drug Superadyne, the Superadigm Seed is a relic of a long-lost alien race known as the Keer-B that was brought to Earth by the Kheldians. It's an artificially constructed pocket universe where the seeds of super-powers and heroism were sown, and then allowed to develop. Its inhabitants fight for justice against the forces of evil, never knowing than their entire cosmos can fit in someone's pocket. It's thought that if the seed could be planted outside the boundaries of the universe, it could grow to a new universe of its own. In the meantime, numerous rogues have tried to get their hands on it.
The tachyon wave motion prototype is a test model of a new engine design that could theoretically propel a space ship faster that the speed of light. Of course, it could also be turned into a dangerous weapon in the wrong hands.
The old leather-bound book contains numerous spells and incarnations, but nothing that makes sense. Maybe its time hasn't come yet.
The Ultrascope! was designed to see things otherwise impossible to view, such as strange energy fields and even the far reaches of space and time.
This strange gem seems to reflect back the eyes of everyone who's ever looked into it. It's said that a properly trained mystic could use it to see what all of those other eyes have seen.
Baron Zoria was already a notorious occult villain around the turn of the century when he began to investigate the legends of the lost city of Oranbega. Whatever he found, he re-emerged at the head of a new cult known as the Circle of Thorns. Some say whatever dire secrets he found changed him forever. He used to use wands like this all the time in his occult crimes, and many seek his old cast-offs to improve their own powers.
