I guess you heard of Operative Leonard Vargas, huh, kid? He's one of the rising stars of Arachnos.

He usually has an overwhelming supply of Mutant and Science Enhancements.

Information

Family Associate

Lorenz Ansaldo is an associate for the Family. He's a troubleshooter for their problems, outsourcing to freelance villains when necessary.

Some say Lorenz got where he did by taking care of certain unsavory tasks for the Family. Others say he'd be much more highly placed if it wasn't for his mouth getting him into trouble all the time. In any case, he gets the job with an easy smile, a nudge and a wink.

Initial Contact

Hey, I'm Lorenz Ansaldo. That's right THE Lorenz Ansaldo. I'm what you call a troubleshooter for the Family. The Family has a problem that they need solvin', they come to me, and I get what you'd call outside help. That'd be you. Capisce?

Find Information on Sea Witch

Briefing

Ay yo, we got a problem. You ever hear of this dame known as the Sea Witch? She's some kinda hero who patrols the waters of the Rogue Islands, lookin' to cause problems for us honest businessmen. She's been attackin' a few Family smuggling... er... shipping vessels including the Carpe Diem, and the Family wants to put her down for the count.

Trouble is, she's pretty hard to find. We been lookin' for her awhile, and the only thing we found is she sometimes works wit' a group called the Legacy Chain. You heard of 'em? They're these mystic nutcases who are out to bring order to chaos or some such. Whatever! We found where a bunch of these Legacy Chain goombas are hiding out, and we need a heavy to go in and interrogate their leader. With the proper, ahem, persuasion you should be able to find out more on this Sea Witch.

Mission Acceptance

Those Legacy Chain fellas got a lot of magic mumbo-jumbo backin' them up.

Mission Objective(s)

• Interrogate Legacy Chain leader
• Defeat leader and minions

Clue: Legacy Chain Interrogation

You interrogate the Legacy Chain leader about the Sea Witch. Arcanist Stigand reveals that the Sea Witch has a personal relationship with one of the leaders of the Scrapyarders named Iron Billy.

Debriefing

So, the Sea Witch has got a sweetie within the Scrapyarders, eh? Sounds like we got some bait for our hook...

Kidnap Iron Billy

Briefing

Nice work on interrogating that Legacy Chain leader! So the Sea Witch is all lovey-dovey with a Scrapyarder leader named Iron Billy, eh? I think it's time to bring things to a head. Rumor has it that Iron Billy was last seen in The Crush. Find and kidnap Iron Billy!

Mission Acceptance

Those miner scum are just a bunch of upstarts. Give 'em hell!

Mission Objective(s)

• Interrogate Scrapyarders
• Defeat 20 Scrapyarders

Mission Objective(s)

• Kidnap Iron Billy

Debriefing

Nice work! I'll put the word out on the street that we got Iron Billy. Then we jsut wait until the Sea Witch comes runnin'! Capisce?

Take Down Sea Witch

Briefing

Our plan for taking down the Sea Witch is going well. When you interrogated the Sea Witch's Legacy Chain allies you found out she had a sweetie among the Scrapyarders, a guy called Iron Billy. You managed to track down and kidnap him from his hideout in the Crush. Sure enough, the Sea Witch has come callin' and wants a final confrontation at the Carpe Diem, the wrecked ship off the Port Recluse docks.

It's time to finish this. Go to the Carpe Diem and take down the Sea Witch.

You might want to take some friend. She's a pretty touch broad and I hear she's REAL angry about you kidnappin' Iron Billy!

Mission Acceptance

We want some of our boys to soften 'em up for ya.

This dame has been a thorn in the Family's side for too long. End this.

Mission Objective(s)

• Take down the Sea Witch

Debriefing

You took down the Sea Witch? That's freakin' fantastic! The Family will be pleased!

Get Wormy from Longbow

Briefing

We need you to get rid of somethin' for us. We've got a piece of evidence we want gotten rid of, permanent-like. Problem is that Longbow is on to us, and has got our guy with the evidence trapped in a warehouse. Head over to the warehouse and get Wormy out of there!

Mission Acceptance

We can't have this evidence falling into the right hands. Capisce?

Mission Objective(s)

• Get Wormy out of warehouse

When you lead Wormy to the exit door, he says, "That does it! I'm through with this racket!" and throws down the body bag that he's been carrying.

Debriefing

You got him out? Nice work. I could never stand that smarmy little runt, but I guess he didn't give up the evidence to those Longbow jerks either.

Talk to Siren's Call Warzon Liaison

Briefing

You've heard of Siren's Call, haven't you? Frankly, it's a war zone right now. Lord Recluse is looking to push into Paragon City from there, and Paragon City is trying to push right back. It wouldn't do any harm to your reputation if you were to head over there and throw down for Arachnos. Why don't you go talk to the Warzon Liaison in Sharkhead Isle? I'm sure he could use your help.

Siren's Call is a PvP zone, where you may be killed by other players.

Mission Acceptance

The liaison can help you find the right contacts in Siren's Call.

Mission Objective(s)

• Talk to Warzone Liaison

Debriefing Arachnos Warzone Liaison

If you know anything about Siren's Call, you know that it's a bloodbath in there. Don't go in if you can't handle that. If you're tough enough, though, you can talk to Operative Massey. He's got the skinny on all sorts of missions that will help swing the battle in Arachnos' favor. Or you can talk to the Arbiter at the Arachnos base; he can tell you all about bounties.

Siren's Call is a PVP zone. If you enter, you may be killed by other players. Do not enter if you are not willing to risk this.

Debriefing

The takeover of Siren's Call is one of the crucial elements of Lord Recluse's plan. If you can make your name there, it'll make a big difference to your reputation with Arachnos.

Bust the Dockworkers Strike

Briefing

Alright, the Family has got some problems down at the docks. It seems those Scrapyarders have been riling up the dockworkers, causing all kinds of grief for the Family there. The Family would normally just bust a few heads to solve the problem, but they want to be a bit more discrete-like. I need you to go down to the docks and bust up the dockworker's strike.

Mission Acceptance

Don't leave any permanent marks, Capisce?

Mission Objective(s)

• Bust up the dockworker's strike

Badge

Completion of this mission earns a villain the Strikebreaker accomplishment badge.

Investigate Invisible Freakshow

Briefing

Ay yo, we got some problems at the docks. We got some Freakshow jackin' supply crates from the docks. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem the Family couldn't handle themselves, but there's somethin' different about these Freakshow. When we tried trailing them, they seemed to just disappear! That's right, we're dealin' with invisible Freakshow!

Now you know why we're lookin' for professional assistance. Track down and take out whoever is responsible for making these sneaky freaks!

Mission Acceptance

Nothin' worse than a Freakshow appearin' outta nowhere.

Mission Objective(s)

• Defeat doctor and assistants

Debriefing

You took down the Freakshow doctor that was makin' those sneaky Freaks? Beautiful. The Family owes you one!

Take out the Marcone Family Boss

Briefing

We got us some Family problems. Y'see, there's two major families that are controllin' the docks, the Marcone and Verandi families. The Verandi family has recently experienced an untimely death, and certain clues point to the Marcone family as the perpetrators. The Verandi want to give the Marcone a warning that they are not to be messed with.

Mission Acceptance

Let's show the Verandi that we need to keep things civil within the Family. Beat them down!
