Template:Souvenir Page from Schwartzwald's notebook

Go to the office and save the reporters from the Freakshow

Briefing

I just got word that the Freakshow are tearing up the office of a webzine called Hypertypes that follows Paragon City's super-powered scene. Can you go to that office and save those reporters from the Freakshow?

Hypertypes reports on the activities of all super-powered individuals, both heroes and villains alike. Perhaps they found out something the Freakshow doesn't want in the public eye.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Defeat all Freaks in office
    • 3 reporters left, Seek clues

Clue
Body of Mike Schwartzwald

You arrived too lat to save Mike Schwartzwald, the investigative reporter, from the Freakshow. In his hand was a crumpled piece of paper bearing the name 'Joe Baker.'

Clue
Schwartzwald's files

These computer files contain hundreds of pages of research, suppositions, clippings, and interviews. They all seem centered around the Freakshow, but aren't in any kind of organized pattern that you can see. After flipping through a calendar, you notice several recent meetings with a man named Joe Baker.

It's a shame you weren't able to save that Schwartzwald fellow; it sounds like he was the Freakshow's primary target. At least you were able to recover his files. Most of these notes do seem to be about the Freakshow, though I'm afraid they'd only make sense to Schwartzwald himself. Maybe he got to close to something. There are several references to meetings with a man named Joe Baker; maybe he can tell us more about the Freakshow's attack.

Meet with Joe Baker

Briefing

I'm determined that the Freakshow will go down for the murder of that reporter, Mike Schwartzwald. I've located the Joe Baker mentioned in Schwartzwald's files. Turns out Mr. Baker is a mid-level manager at Crey Industries. I managed to contact him, and he agreed to meet with you. He sounded really nervous. I'd recommend that you be read for just about anything.

Maybe Mr. Baker knows what Schwartzwald was investigating. That information could tell us why the Freakshow killed him.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Meet Joe Baker

You've spoken with Joe Baker, and learned some interesting information.

Clue
Joe's story

After you rescued him from the Freakshow, Joe Baker told you:

'Look, I'm never going to say any of this in court, I know Crey too well for that. But I will tell you what I can.

I work for Crey Industries. We were losing sales to a competitor, and they were family owned and wouldn't sell their business to us. So I was ordered to go to a meeting for 'Radical Acquisitions Strategies'. Imagine what I thought when I walked into a room full of Freakshow! They were asking those maniacs to attack our competitor, like it was something they did all the time.

The Freak's leader, this huge maniac called Dreck, he was barely listening. Looked like he was gonna start tearing the place up and see how fast we could run. And then I recognized him. This Dreck, he'd changed, but it was Daniel Watson. We'd worked together. At Crey.

Talk to the ZikZak Man

Briefing

The Freakshow have started fighting among themselves. It looks like Freaks who are loyal to Dreck are making hits against those loyal to Bile the Technophile. that's not so unusual, but it made me go back to Schwartzwald's notes, and I found something. Turns out that most of Schwartzwald's mystery informants were Freaks in Bile's faction. Could it be that Dreck has identified them as a threat? I need you to investigate this strange Freakshow strife.

Ok, I've identified a Freak called the ZikZak man who runs a group of techno-anarchists. He was one of Schwartzwald's contacts, and he's ocme under fire from Dreck loyalists. I'd like you to talk to him.
