Rikti Artifact Rumors (40-50)

You hear some interesting rumors regarding a deactivated Rikti Artifact.

You've heard from a reliable source (who knows what'll happen if he's lying) that a deactivated Rikti Artifact was discovered in the sewers beneath Peregrine Island in Paragon City. Some serious havoc could be caused with this device. According to your informant it is a device that the Rikti lost during the first Rikti War. This ancient piece of technology is said to be able to greatly enhance the wearer's psychic powers, and if activated it will alert the Rikti to its presence. This gives you some interesting ideas.

You could activate it cause the Rikti to go crazy searching for it. This would likely cause mayhem in Peregrine Island as the Rikti raid the area searching for their Artifact.

Alternatively you could wait for someone else to activate it and use the distraction to reveal the Rikti raid leader's base and steal any valuables not bolted down.

Villain Acceptance

Briefing

This should be pretty straightforward. Take the sub to Paragon City, sneak into the sewers, locate the artifact that your contact told you about and get out of there. This Rikti Artifact will cause the Rikti to go berserk while trying to find this artifact. This will cause untold damage as well as serving as a great distraction.

  • Activate the Rikti Artifact to cause mayhem.

As if causing destruction in Paragon City isn't incentive enough, this could also create a distraction that will allow you to carry out other plans unnoticed for a short time. You head off towards the sub that will take you to Paragon City.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Somewhere in Peregrine Island there's a Rikti artifact just waiting to be activated. All you have to do is get to Paragon City.

Mission Objective(s)

You can hear the sirens of police drones and the muffled sounds of voices speaking over a communicator. Deeper in the sewer tunnels you can hear a heated argument.

  • Activate Rikti Artifact
    • Activate the Rikti Artifact
    • Defeat investigation team leaders

You activated the Rikti Artifact causing the Rikti to assault Peregrine Island.

Enemies

Paragon Police Department
Longbow

Notable NPCs

  • Officer Deegan (Longbow Officer)
  • Enforcer Bennet (PPD Enforcer)

Ambush! Activating the Rikti Artifact will trigger five waves of Rikti ambushes.

Debriefing

Your distraction worked as intended. As soon as the artifact was activated Rikti started pouring into the area and causing mayhem. The heroes in the area won't know what hit them.

Rogue Acceptance

Briefing

The plan is simple. Spread some rumors about the Rikti Artifact, hitch a ride to Paragon City on a sub, wait for someone to activate it and wait for the mayhem to ensure. Then, you're free to hit up that Rikti base and procure not one, but hopefully several Rikti Artifacts.

  • Wait for the Artifact to be activated, then go loot the Rikti base.

You've spread the rumors. Any time now someone should try to activate the artifact. It's time to set off to Paragon City and raid that Rikti base. You head off to catch a ride to Paragon City. You can almost smell the cash you'll make after you sell those Rikti devices.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Somewhere in Peregrine Island is a Rikti base loaded with goodies... all with your name on them. You just need to get to the submarine and head over there.


Mission Objective(s)

This odd hum of alien technology buzzes in your ear. Normally, it would be irritating, but today it sounds like money.

  • Loot the Rikti Base
    • 5 Rikti Artifacts to steal
    • Defeat Rikti Base Defender to Escape

You looted the Rikti base

Clue
Rikti Medicine

This crate contains Rikti medical supplies. Who knows what they'd do to a human? Maybe cure cancer, perhaps give you cancer, or maybe cause you to grow an extra limb. Doesn't matter to you, as long as someone's willing to pay you a boatload of cash for them.

Clue
The Motherlode

Now, this is what you're talking about! A crate loaded to the brim with small, unrecognizable gadgets that look expensive and have half a dozen flashing lights on them. These will likely sell for a small fortune.

Clue
Rikti Cooking Tools

You stumble upon what appears to be Rikti cooking devices. You sift through a number of items that catch your interest, one that catches your eye is something that appear to be an alien egg beater, but with way too many extra attachments.


Debriefing

What a haul! You knew someone would go after that Rikti Artifact, which gave you the perfect opportunity to see where the Rikti raiders were coming from. That lead you this Rikti base, which you picked clean.
