Information

Physician and Genetics Researcher at Cole Memorial Hospital

Doctor Arvin is a well known physician within Nova Praetoria. Despite his older age, he has kept up with all of the up and coming doctors in his field. Some of his co-workers whisper that he has been working on secret experiments in his spare time, though none know what exactly he is up to.

Doctor Arvin is also known to be somewhat of a historian in his spare time, keeping an impressive collection of historical books within his home.

Prior to Introduction

I'm sorry, but I don't take walk-up appointments. Even though I am a physician, you'll still need to book an appointment with my receptionist. If we start breaking even the smallest rules, where would we be as a society?

Initial Contact

Character, good to meet you. My name is James Arvin. As you may have guessed from my attire, I am a doctor of some repute here in Nova Praetoria.

I would love to have a casual conversation with you, but I'm afraid there is business to attend to.

You are aware of the Destroyers, yes? They are a symptom of a disease spreading within Praetoria, one that I would see cured. Have you heard of it? Fixadine? It eats away at those who cling to it, turning them into monsters. I, however, would see these monsters freed from their chains.

You have a plan to go about this?

That I do. Many have tried to cure those addicted to Fixadine with little success. The main problem, you see, is that their bodies require Fixadine to survive - once they've become addicted, of course. It isn't a simple matter of willpower to get over the addiction. Without Fixadine, the bodily functions of those who are addicted will slowly shut down one by one, until they eventually die.

I, however, have come up with a method that will allow their bodies to sustain themselves without Fixadine. It is a long process, however, and must be done on a case by case basis.

My research was proceeding along nicely until my patient, who I have dubbed Subject Zero, escaped from my care. This is where I need your assistance, Character.

Find Subject Zero, sounds easy enough. How did he escape?

Skips to end of conversation.

Why not ask the PPD for help?

The PPD... don't exactly know what I'm doing. They too, are another symptom of a disease spreading in Praetoria, one that does not have to do with Fixadine.

I must keep my work a secret from them, for now. Once the cure is created, I can come forward with what I know and what I've done. There may be anger at my... activities, but my cure will easily make up for that.

Alright, do you have any idea where Subject Zero might be?

Skips to end of conversation.

How did Subject Zero get away?

It was my fault, really. He was craving Fixadine for far too long. I was hoping I could create the cure before Subject Zero went into withdrawals... but time was not on my side. He easily broke out of my laboratory and is now somewhere within the city, looking for more of the drug.

Alright, do you have any idea where Subject Zero might be?

I have some leads. Shall we get started?

Yes, let's figure this out.

Skips to intro to first mission.

Give me a moment.

Greeting

Immunization Prescription

Dr. Arvin wrote up this prescription for you to receive various immunization shots, despite your super abilities and resistance to such things.

It reminds you of an experience you call...

Fixing Fixadine

It began when you met a doctor named John Arvin, who was looking for help in creating a cure for Fixadine. He told you that he was close to finding a cure for Fixadine but that his main test subject, dubbed 'Subject Zero', had escaped from his lab. You took off into the tunnels beneath Nova to search for Subject Zero.

You saved a homeless woman from the Ghouls. In return, the woman told you of a homeless man in the tunnels who could help you with your search. You spoke to the man, who revealed Subject Zero's real name was Louis and that he was Dr. Arvin's nephew. The homeless man informed you that Louis went to catch up with a group of Destroyers topside.

You hurried to the warehouse where the Destroyers were. The place was full of fire and smoke, but Subject Zero was not in the warehouse. You found out that Subject Zero was part of a rampage in South Aetna!

You hurried to South Aetna and stopped the rampage, while also saving Subject Zero from the Destroyers and the PPD. With him in Dr. Arvin's care, it's only a matter of time until a cure is created for the Fixadine...

Part One: The Underbelly

Briefing

Hello again, Character. I've managed to track down a possible location for Subject Zero. I regret to inform you that he was last seen going into the underground tunnels of Praetoria.

I know that Subject Zero has a few contacts down there, specifically in the homeless that dwell within those dreadful areas. I believe it is with those homeless that you will be able to find the location of our Subject Zero. Are you up for going down into the diseased depths of this city to bring back our cure?

When you say it like -that-, how could I not be?

Excellent.

I would be careful of running into the Ghouls while you're down there. If you hurry, you may be able to catch Subject Zero before he wanders too deep into the city's abyss. Oh, and Character?

Make sure all of your immunization shots are current before you go down there.

Unnecessary Solicitation

If you need some shots before you go down there, I'll be able to help.

Mission Objective(s)

You follow a series of winding corridors before you end up here. You're deep beneath Nova now - and going deeper.

• Find Subject Zero
  • Save any stranded Loyalists (Optional)
  • Find anyone who can locate Subject Zero
    • Find the exit deeper into the tunnels

You push through the tunnels to speak with another homeless man regarding the location of Subject Zero.

Lost Citizen dialogue

Before combat:

Aaaahhh!! W-what are you things?!

Combat start:

Please! Help! Over here!

Rescued:

Thank goodness you arrived.

I ran down here after a Destroyer attacked me...

If it wasn't for you, I'd be dead!

The man you rescued told you about one of the Destroyers.

The Big Red Bomb

You rescued a Loyalist citizen from the ghouls within the tunnels. He told you that he was running from a large Destroyer, who was nicknamed 'Red Bomb'. Rumor has it that if you're captured by Red Bomb, he'll either tear you in half or inject you with so much Fixadine that you won't even remember your own name.

Ghoul Dialogue

Before combat:

Hunter: Claw... pain... constant pain...

Combat start:

Hunter: Free from pain!

A Ghoul's Fate

One of the ghouls you defeated within the tunnels let out a somewhat sensible sentence before collapsing to the ground.

Manslayer: Graaaagh! FEAST!

Combat start:

Homeless Woman: What? Someone from Powers Division?

Down here?

Rescued:

Homeless Woman: Huh? You're looking for some Destroyer?

Can't say I can help you, but there's a guy down in the tunnels who can.

Just keep going forward and you'll wind up near his place, can't miss him.

The woman you rescued informed you of someone who can help with your search.

The Destroyer Expert

After you saved the homeless woman from ghouls, she told you about a man who lived within the tunnels. Rumor has it that he was an ex-Destroyer. He knows a lot about what goes on with the Destroyers, including where Subject Zero may be.

Part Two: Chasing the Crush

Mission Objective(s)

• Speak with the Homeless Man

Homeless Man

Briefing

Eh? What do you want? Can't you see you're intruding on my home here?!

I'm here to find out about a Destroyer that passed through here.

A Destroyer?

You mean Louis? Shame that he got on the Fixadine. I always told him not to get on the stuff.

But does he listen to me? Of course not! Now he's always hopped up on Fixadine, attacking random people. Last I heard, he threw a car at a building and killed a group of college students. None of that woulda happened if he just listened to me. He didn't even listen to that stuck up uncle of his, what's his name... Arvin... or something.

What're you lookin' to him about?

I'm trying to track him down, to find a cure for Fixadine.

Wha? What's Louis gotta do with it?

He's the key to finding the cure. I need to know where he went.

Wait, Arvin is his Uncle?

Yeah, Arvin is his uncle. Took good care of him too, till Louis went on the crush.

Me, I never wanted in on the stuff, s'why they kicked me outta the Destroyers, I guess.

Not surprised that Arvin doesn't talk a lot about Louis and him being related. It'd look bad for a doctor in his standing to be associated with some sorta Destroyer like Louis, eh?

(dialog choice missing)

Alright, whatever. I talked to Louis a while ago, he was killing for a 'crush'. That's what they call a shot of Fixadine. This time here is the only time when you could talk to him without getting your face smashed in, see?

So, I told him about some Destroyers that ran out through the tunnels, led by some guy called Smash Bro. They're up in one of the warehouses in Nova now. You wanna find Louis, you can go see him there.

That all you want from me?

Thanks for the information, I'll be going now.

Completes dialog

What do you know of the past, before this place was Praetoria?

Before? You're interested in before?

This place, this country, was called America. And you know who it belonged to? The people! Not to some stuck-up super-powered suit. They say up top that the world before Cole was terrible. But I say we're livin' in a time that our forefathers would've hated! No freedom, no choice! What you do is what Cole and his little group let you do. S'why I'm down here in the tunnels. It may not be nice, but at least I got myself some choice down here.

You, you should remember what I'm sayin' here! We're comin' to a time when people don't remember how things were, forgetting what the past was, just believin' what Cole tells 'em! But I won't forget! I won't forget the life I had, back when this land had a different name.

Thanks for the information, I'll be going now.

Uncle Arvin

The homeless man within Nova's underground tunnels informed you that Subject Zero's real name was Louis - Louis Arvin. Dr. Arvin is Louis' uncle, though the homeless man believes Arvin is ashamed of being associated with Louis. This could be why Arvin never bothered to inform you of their relation.

A Land Called America

You spoke with the homeless man beneath the tunnels about what Praetoria used to be, before Emperor Cole came into power. He went into a small rant about the land of 'America' and about how it was 'far greater' than what Cole's regime has currently created, despite the various facts flying around about the problems that the country previously had.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Good to see you're not feeling ill, Character. Do you think you can get to that warehouse before Subject Zero gets away?

Mission Objective(s)

Smoke fills the warehouse as you step inside of it. The Destroyers have made their mark here already - hopefully Subject Zero is still somewhere within.

• Enter the Destroyer Gathering
  • Defeat Smash Man to find Subject Zero's location

You discovered the location of Subject Zero - he's at a rampage in South Aetna! You need to get this information to Doctor Arvin as soon as you can!

Destroyer Dialogue

Before combat:

Destroyer 1: You dealing alright? About that couple that you killed?

Destroyer 2: Casualties of war, that's all they were. Wrong place, wrong time. They can blame those Resistance punks who were getting in our way.

Combat start:

Destroyer 2: Got some more excitement, huh?! Let's DO THIS!

---

Before combat:

Destroyer 1: What's the strategy for pushing back into the Magisterium?

Destroyer 2: Rendevouz with the boys over near South Aetna.

We made our push once, we can get further again.

Combat start:

Destroyer 1: Yeah? YEAH?! COME GET SOME!

Destroyer 2: Training time... killing time!

Before combat:

Destroyer 1: Louis was pathetic, he barely survived the fight against our weakest crusher.

Destroyer 2: Does it matter? Maybe he'll kill someone Praetor White cares about, get us some more attention.

Combat start:

Destroyer 1: Time to die!

Destroyer 2: Looking for a fight? YOU LOOKING FOR A FIGHT?! YOU GOT ONE!

CALL IN EVERYBODY!

Louis the Lobster

After defeating a group of Destroyers, you found out about Subject Zero's past in the Destroyers. He had the nickname 'Louis the Lobber' because his 'specialty' was throwing objects at people. During one raid, he grabbed a broken lampost and slammed it into a car, causing it to blow up and kill the passengers inside. During another incident, he was seen throwing civilians out of high-rise buildings, laughing with his eyes mad from Fixadine.

Ambush! After defeating the above mobs, a two minute counter starts, after which four waves of Destroyers will ambush you, each with their own lines: Time to tear some supers apart!

Yeah! Time to shred!

'Gonna make this real serious now!

This punk's death'll get me into Red Bomb's horde for sure!

Smash Man Dialogue

Before combat: Wonder how far that kid thinks he's gonna get. Maybe he'll link up with that group attacking Aetna. Combat start: Someone wants a fight, huh? I'm down for a fight... I'm... ALWAYS... down... for a FIGHT!

You defeated Smash Man and learned the location of Subject Zero.

Rampage in Aetna

Smash Man calmed down off of his Fixadine rush after you defeated him. In his last moments of conscious, he told you that the man you're looking for probably hooked up with another horde of Destroyers who found a way into South Aetna.

Before passing out, Smash Man grunted that the Destroyers will, 'never rest until we get back what's ours from you Powers Division scum.'

Part Three: Crushing Hard

Doctor Arvin

Briefing

Character, were you able to find Subject Zero?

...

...

A rampage in South Aetna?! If something isn't done, we could lose Subject Zero - and our cure - forever to the PPD! Quick, Character, I know of a way that you can slip in there to disarm the situation and get Subject Zero before the PPD do!

Those Loyalists who are truly loyal to safety and peace of Praetoria would do well to speak with Provost Marchand about events that are happening - before going to stop this rampage.

Alright, let's get started. (Begin Mission)

Give me a minute, Arvin.

Exits dialog

Hold on Arvin, you never mentioned you were Subject Zero's Uncle.

What?

... yes, I'm related to Subject Zero, Character. Why do you ask?

No reason, let's get going. (Begin mission)

Why didn't you mention this? Are you ashamed of him?

Ashamed?

No, not at all, Character. I care about my nephew, very much. Which is why I must keep my distance from our... connection. As a doctor, I must remain professional and disconnected from my patients. If I have an emotional investment... then mistakes can be made during the procedure.

I must ensure that Subject Zero is just that to me - another patient to work on. No connection, no face, just a means to an end.

I hope you can understand that, Character. Now, please, you must hurry to South Aetna!

I'm on it. (Begin mission)

Contacting Provost Marchand

Provost Marchand

Briefing

Subject Zero? What are you talking about?

(Explain the situation.)

So, Arvin is working on a cure for Fixadine?

Very interesting. Praetor White might not like that for various reasons, but I believe that anything that helps keep the peace is good for Praetoria.

For now, I'd say work together with Arvin. We'll have our own men ready. However, you should be warned that if other Praetors find out, they may send their own squad of PPD to handle the situation.

Some would see this cure as an opportunity, and will try to take as much credit as possible. Those would be the people who don't care about the fate of Praetoria, unlike you and I.

Alright, Marchand. I'll head to stop that rampage.

Business As Usual

You spoke with Marchand about events surrounding Dr. Arvin. Given the current situation in South Aetna, Marchand implored that you play along with Arvin for now and focus on getting the Destroyers out of South Aetna.

Mission Objective(s)

The Destroyers are tearing up South Aetna. With the PPD nowhere to be found, it's up to you to stop them - and get Subject Zero!

• Retrieve Subject Zero in South Aetna!
  • Retrieve Subject Zero

You've fought off the Destroyers and recovered Subject Zero before the PPD could arrive!

Bad Man: We're not gonna let you pull away Skinny Lou!

Debriefing

Character, this is terrific! Subject Zero, back in our custody! Now I can move forward with finding a cure.

You and I, however, are not done yet. Far from it. I'll need your help in finding the last components for the cure before I can properly administer it to Subject Zero.

Souvenir

Destroyer blood vial

You have this leftover vial from containing the blood of a powerful Destroyer. It reminds you of an experience you call...

Rage Quit

Dr. Arvin was close to finding a cure for Fixadine; with Subject Zero back in his care, all he needed was a vial of blood from a powerful Destroyer. You fought and defeated the Red Bomb, taking a sample of blood from him in the process.

When you returned to Arvin, he informed you that his lab had been raided by the PPD and that he was kicked out. Luckily, he had managed to hide Subject Zero. You and Arvin snuck back into his lab, where Arvin was able to craft the cure for Subject Zero, allowing his body to survive without Fixadine. Alarms began to go off, a sign that the PPD were on their way to the lab.

You were then faced with a choice. Dr. Arvin wanted Subject Zero to go free, to live his own life. But Subject Zero had committed many crimes against Praetoria. Was it right to allow him to go free, when those he hurt would never get that choice? It was a difficult decision, but one that you had to make on your own.

Part One: The Red Bomb

Briefing

Subject Zero is doing just fine within my lab. I was able to sneak him in without anyone noticing - in the dead of night, of course.

While you were out chasing Zero, I was wrapping up loose ends in my research. I need one final chemical to complete the cure - I only just now realized it.

I need a blood sample from someone who has been on Fixadine for an extremely long time. This is so I have another sample to compare Subject Zero's with - two extremes, you see. One blood sample of a normal person, myself, and another sample of someone completely far gone. Of course, something like this would have to be done by, well, someone like you. Do you happen to know where you might find a specimen that fits this criteria?

During your chase after Subject Zero, you remember the Destroyers mentioning 'The Red Bomb', a powerful Destroyer whom they all look up to and respect. If there's one Destroyer that could fit for Dr. Arvin's experiment, it's him.

There is one. He calls himself The Red Bomb.

The Red Bomb?

Why, Subject Zero just mentioned that man's name! He was trying to lash at me, saying he was going to prove himself so that he could join the Red Bomb's raid on a nearby office building today. I hadn't thought anything of it - I believed Red Bomb was just a regular Destroyer, so I informed the PPD of what was going to happen.

But if he's the Destroyer we need, then you need to hurry to that building to get his blood, before the PPD bring him in!

Unnecessary Solicitation

I'll do what I can to hold off the PPD from getting there, but you need to hurry!

Mission Objective(s)

The sound of destruction echoes in the halls of this office building. There's little time left before either the building collapses, or the PPD arrive!

• Extract Red Bomb's Blood
  • Re-activate emergency systems to douse some fires (Optional)
  • Extract Fixadine from the Red Bomb

You've retrieved the blood that Dr. Arvin needs, now to get back to him so he can perform the experiment!

Red Bomb dialogue

Before combat: Yeah! This is what it's all about! 'Praetor White' thinks he can ignore us?!
Combat start: So we got a Powers Division guy here, huh?! I'll rip you to pieces!
At 50% health: You can put out the fires, but you ain't gonna put out this guy! I'm gonna beat you down and go STRAIGHT to the TOP!
At 25% health: I've been waitin' a long time for this! They won't know what hit 'em!
On defeat: Haaaaah.... maybe... maybe you got me... but I'm not... gonna just... roll over and die...!

Ambush! At 50% health, a wave of 3 PPD will come as allies (this may be linked to putting out the fires via the emergency systems).

PPD Trooper: We've got a member of Powers Division under fire, sending in backup.
Red Bomb: Got some of your BOYS to back you up huh!? I'll just have to FIGHT A LITTLE HARDER!

Fixadine Blood

You were able to retrieve the Fixadine Blood from the Red Bomb. It's a good thing Arvin gave you a specific vial to put it in - the minute the blood was poured in, the vial increased substantially in temperature! This is definitely no ordinary blood sample.

Debriefing

Character, thank you. I... wish I could say things are going well, but they're not.

The PPD have found out about my experiments and... have forbidden me from entering my lab. Luckily I was able to get Subject Zero out before they raided the place - only thanks to the quick work of my secretary.

I'm not too surprised that this happened - often when trying to cure a disease, the symptoms of it will work together to fight against the cure. It's a good thing that I've got just what I need to fight back against this; your help.

Finale: My Nephew, the Monster

Briefing

This is it, Character, everything we've worked for has come down to this one moment. I say we, as I've come to trust you as a valuable friend. Not an assistant, mind you, a friend.

The PPD have my lab guarded, but I know of a time when their guard will be lowered. Tunnel Rat will create a distraction for us. That is when you and I can sneak in with Subject Zero.

Once we're inside, I can administer the final step in the cure for Fixadine.

Are you ready, Character?

Let's do this, Arvin.

Excellent. Wait for the appointed time, then head into the my lab. It's located a bit from the hospital itself, due to some of the odd research I've done. I'll be right behind you. And Character, thank you. For everything.

Those Loyalists who are truly loyal to the safety and peace of Praetoria would do well to speak with Provost Marchand about the recent turn of events.

Unnecessary Solicitation

We shouldn't be seen talking at the moment, Character, given that we're about to perform some less than legal activities.

Contacting Provost Marchand

Provost Marchand

Briefing

Character, I assume you're working with Arvin on curing Subject Zero? I apologize for the intrusion of the PPD, they were sent in by the Deputy Assistant of Information.

The piece of slime was looking to boost his own reputation by claiming he was the one to come up with the cure.

Arvin is going to cure Subject Zero. What then?

I imagine given Arvin's relationship to Subject Zero, he will want to use the Resistance to get him out of Praetoria.

We can either sit back and let it happen, or move in to stop him.

I can tell you now that the Deputy's men are waiting to storm the lab at a moment's notice. If Arvin goes in there and performs any experiments, they'll know.

What you do is your choice, Character. Depending on how... far you want to take this.

How far I want to take this?

Yes. Have you heard of the Crusaders?

They are the insane members of the Resistance, the ones that I believe Calvin Scott is a part of. Most of them don't care about politics or the government. They just want to see our fair city burn. It's very difficult to track them and find out what they're doing - the group is just too unpredictable.

However, to have a mole inside of the Crusaders... it would be a great help to Praetoria. But there are many dangers involved.

What are the dangers?

You'll have to perform acts that are vile and horrifying, harm people you may care about, even kill innocent civilians. All in order to keep your cover within the Crusaders.

Also, no one in the PPD would know that you were doing this. If you were to be captured in the act... no one within our organization would rescue you, not even myself. You would be going into the lair of the beast - and only I would know that you are doing it to save our city.

If you wish to do this, to go further, then you should aid Arvin in any way that you can.

If not, then bring Subject Zero and Arvin in. We'll work on the cure and give them their proper sentence.

Good luck, Character. Whatever you choose to do, we will continue to work together - either against the Wardens, or against the Crusaders.

Thanks, Marchand.

Two Paths

You spoke with Marchand regarding the situation with Arvin. Marchand offered you a proposal - arrest Arvin and continue your spy work within the Wardens, or help Arvin and go even deeper undercover into the Crusaders. The choice, as Marchand said, is up to you.

Mission Objective(s)

Dr. Arvin's lab is devoid of life, the PPD following Tunnel Rat's distraction. Now is the perfect time to get in here and take care of matters.

• Cure Subject Zero
  • Get into the Facility

'Everything we've worked for has come down to this one moment...'

Dr. Arvin:

Quickly, Character, we must get the subject inside of the container. We have no time to lose!

(Some time later...)

Dr. Arvin:

Character, this is incredible!

Subject Zero... Louis... he is completely cured of Fixadine!

He can go on to live a normal life... no more cravings... no more rage!

I can get my nephew to members of the Resistance right away.

They will get him out of Praetoria so he can start his life over!

Players are presented with a moral choice:

• Release Subject Zero. Help Help Subject Zero escape Praetoria.
  • Aid the Resistance. Dr. Arvin plans to release Subject Zero into the hands of the Resistance, who will help him flee the government of Praetoria. You'll need to ensure that no harm comes to Arvin or Zero in that time!

• Apprehend Subject Zero. Arrest Subject Zero for his crimes.
  • Aid the Loyalists. Subject Zero is cured, but that doesn't pardon him from his past crimes. Murder, destruction... even if he isn't a Fixadine addict, he still needs to answer for his crimes.
