The man's name is Transmuter. He was once a powerful mage who fought alongside Emperor Cole, but those days are far behind him now, far behind him. He is now in charge of the organization of Powers Division within Imperial City.

The Transmuter will be able to move your fame and power forward with your very own group of Powers Division. It should prove very interesting. Very interesting indeed.

Initial Contact

• Note: you may receive one of two Initial Contact briefings, depending on previous arcs completed and choices made.

Hello there, Character. Very interesting to meet you, very interesting. I've heard somewhat of your achievements here in Praetoria. Not as much as some others, but you've been up there. The fact that you've come to speak to me speaks volumes about your tastes, volumes.

My name is Mr. G, and I believe you and I have some very interesting matters to discuss, very interesting.

What sort of matters?

Matters of great importance, Character. A situation that I need your expert help with. Of course, I'm not a fool to believe you're in this just to help others. I am a man who is all about mutually assisting those who assist me. I have plenty of influence at my disposal within Praetoria, plenty of influence. I will make sure that you get whatever it is that you need; fame, power, glory, all or just one. I will help you, and you will help me - everyone benefits, Character, everyone. Think over my deal and get back to me when you are ready to make a move.

• I'm ready now, Mr. G

• Alright, I'll do that.

Mr. G: Alternate briefing for avid Loyalists

Ah, Character, I've heard a lot about you from Praetor White. He speaks very highly about your exploits, very highly.

• (If character chose Loyalist at the end of Jack Hammer's story arc):
  

Killing Jackhammer was no easy task, I imagine. But that's what makes you special amongst the powers here in Praetoria, very special.

My name is Mr. G, you may or may not have heard of me. I deal in very special matters here in Praetoria, very special. Which is why I wish to deal with you, Character. I can see you becoming a very big deal here in Praetoria, very big deal. Which is why I would propose that you and I work together.

What do you want to work together on?

Several projects of mine, all very important. But the most important is analyzing you, what you can do, and how to heighten your abilities even more. To do this, however, I'll need your help in some matters that need to be handled in an efficient matter, a most efficient matter.

A deal for a deal, as they say. A man in my position in Praetoria has many matters to deal with, many matters. Your help in these matters wouldn't just help me, however. They would go a long way towards increasing your own fame in Praetoria, a very long way. So if you are truly interested in this, speak to me again. I suggest thinking it over, I would hate for you to rush into matters. Things can get quite messy if someone rushes into an issue, quite messy.

Greeting

For Loyalists:

• Hello, Character. I'm quite certain you and I are going to work on something interesting, quite certain.

For members of the Resistance:

• I believe the path you've taken doesn't suit our goals, Character. Let's speak again if you've had a change of heart, yes, let us indeed speak again.

Part One: The Girl Called Baker

Very good to see you, Character, very good. I believe you and I have a great deal of work ahead of us. Before we begin, I would like to make a request. There is a woman by the name of Tami Baker. She is the capable secretary of Praetor Sinclair, very capable.

I would like you to deliver this package to her. It contains the details of your previous exploits here in Praetoria. Nothing too revealing, just enough to make you look good, very good. This is going to be given to Praetor Sinclair, personally. It will take some time for this to reach him, but I believe by that time you will have achieved enough power and fame that nothing else would be required to convince Praetor Sinclair of your stature.

Do you mind doing this small task for me, Character?

Take the Package.

Perfect.

Mr. G hands you a small package. It feels as if there are numerous stacks of paper in here, all filled with reports on your exploits.

Ms. Baker will expecting you, quite expecting you.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Have you met with Ms. Baker yet?

Mission Objective(s)

• Meet with Tami Baker

Tami baker

File:Contact Tami Baker.jpg

Tami Baker tells you some things about Eddie Polstra.

Hello! Tami Baker, at your service. What can I do for you today?
I'm Character. Mr. G said you were expecting me.
Oh! Yes, of course I was expecting you! Mr. G has told me ALL about you and the work you're doing, all about it! He's pretty confident that Mr. Sinclair will be blown away by all the work that you've done. Unfortunately, Mr. Sinclair is a very busy man; it will be some time until he receives these papers. But I'll make sure to get it to him right away!
If only he weren't pre-occupied with his own private matters and that of Powers Division, he could get to this sooner! All of Imperial is concerned about it, all of Imperial!
Who is this missing Powers Division?
His name's Eddie Polstra.
He was supposed to be our newest and best defense against those Resistance scum. But now he's just vanished - here one day, gone the next! Praetor Sinclair is trying to get an investigation going, but he's busy trying to run several other operations. We've heard rumors that someone is going around killing members of Powers Division, but Praetor Sinclair has ruled out that possibility for Eddie. It's an awful situation, just awful!
The people of the city are crying out for someone to save this poor member of Powers Division!
Eddie Polstra seems to have gotten in over his head. If Tami Baker's information is true, the people of Imperial City are concerned about Eddie's safety, including Praetor Sinclair. This could be the perfect time for you to swoop in and make a name for yourself in Imperial. Saving Eddie Polstra will open a lot of doors for you to gain more power and fame within Imperial; you might even be able to show up Praetor Sinclair! It would be best to speak with Mr. G and see what exactly he can do to help you with this assignment.
Thanks for the information, Tami. I'll be on my way.

Mission Objective(s)

• Talk to Mr. G

+++ Missing Information +++

Part Two: Among Monsters

I've used my resources to try to locate Mr. Polstra. It's been rather difficult pinning down his exact location, rather difficult. His speciality is being immune to Praetor Tilman's psychic powers. This allows him to stay completely 'off the grid', so to say. I have no doubt, however, that Mr. Polstra is out fighting for the safety of Praetoria, wherever he is. And you will look just as good when you rescue him, yes?

Enough with the idle chitchat though, enough with that. We don't have an exact location, but I do know of where he may have been last seen. Some of my sources within the Praetorian government say that he was last seen fighting off hordes of ghouls in the nearby tunnels. This would be the best place for you to check, Character.

Excellent. Alert the press that I'm beginning my search.

I've already done so, in the interest of keeping things flowing smoothly. While you are out searching, TPN will be running a piece detailing the beginnings of your search, and that you swear to leave no stone unturned until Eddie Polstra is rescued. I believe it will catch the attention of many people here within Imperial City, many people. When you have some more information on these matters, feel free to call me. I'll be waiting.

Unnecessary Solicitation

It's best that you get moving, Character. Time may or may not be of the essence.

Mission Objective(s)

The rotting stench of ghouls fills the air, even this far above the tunnels. Looks like you'll be going deep into their territory to find Eddie...

• Track Eddie's Last Location
  • Look for any evidence of Eddie Polstra's whereabouts
  • Move to the next part of the tunnels to find Eddie

The trail leading to Eddie Polstra continues on... you should contact Mr. G to see if he has any more information on this.

Enemies

Ghouls

Destroyers

Resistance

You've found something odd in one of the ghoul's collars.

Odd Beeping

After knocking out one of the ghouls, you heard an odd beep come from one of their collars. You picked it up and looked inside of it to see a a red light flashing in a pattern. The flashing stopped after a few moments, as if the source of the flash was turned off.

You took down one of the lead ghouls and found something interesting!

Eddie's Trail

You noticed that the large ghoul you defeated had several bullet wounds on its back; these were not made during your fight with it. Looking around the area, you can see similar marks around the walls. It seems Eddie was here for a brief amount of time. You'll have to keep moving forward to find him.

Part Three: Polstra's Crusade

Mission Objective(s)

• Call Mr. G for Information

Mr. G

Briefing

Character, good to see you're still alive. I didn't think the ghouls would best you, but you can never be too careful. What information do you have?

I'm on Eddie's trail, but I need some more help with his exact location.

Character, I've got the information you need, just the right information. My sources tell me Mr. Polstra's location should be in the tunnels nearby. Here are the rough coordinates. Do be careful, however. I've pooled together information from many of my own contacts, and it would appear that Eddie went through a group of Resistance.

By the way, TPN aired the initial report that you were looking for Eddie. They're looking to get another statement about your progress. What shall I divulge to those good reporters? We'll need something short for them to ponder on.

• Tell them I believe Eddie has been kidnapped by the Resistance.
• Tell them that I stopped a horde of ghouls from getting into Imperial City.

Ghouls? Interesting way to get the blood going, very interesting. I'll let TPN know of the threat that you stopped while looking for Eddie.

• Excellent. I'll be on my way.

• Tell them that I vow to start a campaign to make the tunnels safer for the people.

Mission Objective(s)

You can hear the slurred voices of the Resistance, yelling to find the 'red lolipop chomper-face'.

• Catch up with Eddie Polstra
  • Look for anything of interest (Optional)
  • Take out the Resistance guarding the front area
  • Track down Eddie Polstra

You'll have to figure out what exactly Eddie was talking about before you can move forward.

Enemies

Resistance

Notable NPCs

• Maelstrom

You've opened up a link to the Static and overheard some information!

Resistance Static

You're able to overhear some of the Resistance talking over the Static, though it takes a few minutes for you to translate what they're actually saying. It would appear there's a man here named Dark Watcher. The Resistance doesn't go into detail about who he is or what he wants, but they claim that he's here to, 'help swing the tide against Cole'.

Maelstrom

Briefing

You? Who are you? Wait... I've heard of you. Character.

What are you doing down here? They send you to 'save' me?

I sent myself. What are you doing down here?

The monster, Character! They're trying to invade us. I saw it myself. I'm not going to rest until I track it down. If it is what I think it is, then it could mean that great destruction is on the horizon for Praetoria. I'm not going to let that happen.

Calm down. What monster? What are you talking about?

Do you see my chest? This is a Maelstrom Device. It was made by the people back where I'm from and only where I'm from.

I was patrolling in the sewers, looking for these Resistance scum, when I came across this monster. It was at least the size of five ghouls, Character. And it had my Maelstrom Device attached to its chest! The beast and I fought, though it knew the tunnels better than I and got away. '

I can't rest until I find the monster, Character, it's the first sign of an invasion here, an invasion I have to stop!

Look, Eddie, we can figure this out. Just come back to the surface with me.

I'm not going anywhere, Character. I'm not going to rest until this monster, and the invasion, are stopped!

Eddie pushes a button, activating a teleporter!

... great.

Part Four: Your Own Personal Hero

Mission Objective(s)

• Call Mr. G about Eddie's encounter

Mr. G

Briefing

Character, interesting timing, very interesting. TPN just finished their report about your progress.

Were you able to find Eddie?

In a way. He's chasing some sort of monster.

A monster, you say? Interesting, very interesting.

I assume you spoke to him, yes? Did he say anything else?

(Explain to Mr. G what happened}

Hrm... this is all fascinating, Character. Just fascinating. I've heard some rumors about this Maelstrom Device. Give me a minute to call an informant of mine. His name is Anton. It can be a little... difficult to get in touch with him, so this could take a few moments. In the meantime, I shall get my secretary to get me more information about this monster.

(Wait for Mr. G's results)

I apologize for the wait, Character. Anton told me what I needed to know, though my secretary was less helpful. I regret to say that I do not know the identity of this monster Eddie spoke of. I do, however, have information regarding this Maelstrom Device.

It appears that it was manufactured by Neuron Technologies Unlimited; in other words, by Neuron. That's all the information I could currently retrieve, but it may be enough for us to move forward, yes, quite enough to move forward. I know of a lab here in Praetoria that has data files from Neuron Technologies Unlimited. I imagine you could find more information on the Maelstrom Device there. It would probably be quite simple to just walk in there and get the information.

While it would be simple to just walk in there and get the information on the device, there would be nothing really on your end to gain from it. No fame, no show of power, no publicity. It would almost be a waste of time. Unless you could get a group, say, the Resistance, to attack the lab you're going to. Why not? You'll be there anyway, you can easily swat the Resistance down while you're there. You'll get the information you need and look good to the people of Imperial City while doing it!

(Explain your plan of luring the Resistance to Mr. G)

Excellent idea, Character, truly excellent. This is why I enjoy working with you far more than that Reese. He did not have the wit that you do. Luring the Resistance to the lab will be an excellent way to take out one of their groups here in Imperial, while also improving your own reputation. I can get on that right away. By the time you arrive there, it should be properly embroiled in chaos, very properly.

Before you go, however... there is the matter of the reporters. They wish to know what your next move is.

• Tell them Eddie was brainwashed by the Resistance. I'm going to the labs to cure him.
• Inform the people that I defeated several Resistance leaders to find Eddie.

Always a good angle to bring up the Resistance leaders, always a good angle. I'll bring this to the press right away.

• Good, I'm off to the labs

• Tell them all the signs point to Eddie being dead, but I won't give up until I know for sure.

Mission Objective(s)

You walk into the labs to see them embroiled in chaos, just as planned. However, you see signs that this was done by...the Syndicate?

• 'Save the Day' at Neuron's lab
  • Access the lab's database.
  • Take down the Syndicate boss

You took down Michael Haworth and found information on the Maelstrom Device!

Enemies

Syndicate

• Micheal Haworth (Syndicate Suit)

Notable NPCs

• Warrant (Powers Division Top Dog, Ally)

Determined and dependable, Warrant rose from the ranks of the PPD and into the Powers Division. His custom armor is not only symbolic of his dedication to Praetoria, but it also packs quite a bit more punch than the gear issued to the police.

You defeated Michael Haworth and found some information about the corporation he's in.

Haworth and Holon Labs

You defeated Michael Haworth and found a card in his jacket. It identifies him as the CTO of Halon Labs, a corporation in Imperial City that deals with testing the areas around Praetoria for any signs of Devouring Earth spores.

You found details on the Maelstrom Device!

The Maelstrom device

ou scanned through the lab's database and found a document detailing work done on the Maelstrom Device. It appears that there were only two models made; both met unfortunate ends. The first was stolen from the labs after completion some time ago. The second was grafted onto a volunteer from the PPD, though it says that further experiments on melding the device with the agent went awry, causing the experiment to be cancelled. You're still left not knowing who exactly the monster is that Eddie Polstra is chasing, but at least you know now that it's not part of an invasion.

Part Five: The New Monster

Mission Objective(s)

• Call Mr. G regarding the Maelstrom Device

Mr. G

Briefing

Kerian, Imperial City is alive with talk of your exploits, simply alive. Some scientists from Neuron's lab have already gone to TPN to tell them of you saving the day. Were you able to find information regarding the Maelstrom Device?

I was. Eddie was wrong about an invasion, though I believe I learned something about his origin.

His origin? What do you mean?

The Maelstrom Device Eddie is wearing was stolen from the labs years ago.

Interesting... this is most interesting. I doubt very much that Eddie is aware that this technology is stolen, yes, I quite doubt it. This means that whoever grafted the device on him stole this device right beneath Neuron's nose...

What of the monster he is chasing? Were you able to get any information regarding that?

Very little. Something about a failed experiment with someone in the PPD

It seems Neuron has a secret to hide there, if the report does not explain the aftermath of the experiment. Regardless, this will be important information to present to Mr. Polstra. He believes this monster is part of an invasion, wherever he is from. If you can show him evidence that his device was originally made here in this city, he will come to his senses, hopefully.

I've been using some sources of mine to track his positioning, and I believe he is once more down in a den of ghouls in the tunnels. He must believe that is where his monster is. Here are the coordinates where you can find him.

We have to handle one last issue before you're off, one last issue: the report to give to TPN on your current progress.

• Tell them about the Syndicate and Holon labs
• Let them know that I paused my efforts with Eddie to save that lab from the Syndicate
• Tell them Warrant and I stormed the lab to protect Eddie and Praetoria from the Syndicate

Oh, you ran into Warrant? Interesting. I did not think you were one to 'share the spotlight' as it were, did not think that. I'll let TPN know of this latest event.

Those members of the Resistance who have chosen to go deep undercover should report these events to Calvin Scott before moving forward.

• Great, I'm off to retrieve Eddie.

Unsolicited Contact

If all goes according to plan, this will turn Eddie back over to us.

Mission Objective(s)

Bullet casings litter the ground. Time to find Eddie and become 'the people's hero' in Imperial City.

• Reveal the truth to Eddie Polstra
