D
More than one unlucky individual has met his end in this area of the 'Cargo Maze.' The Family is known for luring their victims into this area before 'icing' them. It's easy enough for them to get away with it, as not many heroes wander around this area.  +
You have defeated 50 zombies, the walking flesh of the recently dead.  +
This dead tree within St. Martial is said to be haunted by the ghost of a man who tried to chop it down. People say that if you look closely, you can see glimpses of the man's skeleton, waiting to be released from his torture...  +
The final resting place of the Seed of Hamidon radiates a chill that permeates even Night Ward. In spite of this you take comfort in knowing that Night Ward is beyond Hamidon's reach. But to those denizens unfamiliar with the events leading to the fall of First Ward, this skull-shaped husk is an object of superstition and trepidation. It seems that even in death the Seed continues to spread its influence.  +
When the Devouring Earth struck First Ward the attack came suddenly and without warning. Thousands lost their lives on that terrible day. Though they knew they would likely never return to First Ward, the survivors laid the victims to rest in the Mercyview Cemetery believing the dead would wish to be close to the city they helped build. The survivors believed too that one day they would return and reclaim First Ward in the name of the fallen.  +
Behold! Before you lies the glory of Mot. In this place its true body lies exposed; a vast expanse of reconstituting flesh and yawning maws, feasting on life so it can be resuscitated as it perpetually dies and rots anew. Mot's capacity for consumption does not yet equal its appetites, for much of the body is desiccated by centuries of imprisonment or is still bound in ways both arcane and metaphysical. The many mouths that scar its horrid form are, as of yet, still stifled and immature compared to their glory in antiquity. Only one has fully extended to its full voraciousness, but that one is enough to drag all of Dark Astoria into crushing oblivion.  +
Visiting alien dimensions, as the briefing told you, can be a disorienting experience. In the Shadow Shard the rules of physics operate differently, where masses measuring in the megatonnes float unsupported in the open air. From this vantage you can get a clear picture of the massive size of the island Firebase Zulu sits upon, and see that truly it floats unaided in the alien air. The mind reels at the reality of it, and as the briefing warned it is best if one not contemplate this fact too deeply.  +
You spend your free time spreading Arachnos propaganda to better manipulate and placate the masses of the Rogue Isles earning you the Demagogue Day Job. Logging out in the Arachnos Building in Marconeville will earn you an Infamy bonus, upon each mission completion, for a short time.  +, While you're no longer interested in spreading Arachnos lies, there don't seem to be many opportunities in a similar vein here in Paragon City.  +
At last you have arrived. Every challenge faced you have cast down with blood and sweat, never once succumbing to despair or defeat. The Shadow Shard has tested you countless times and each time you have triumphed. No mind games or violations to your person could prevent you from reaching this point and now you stand at the pinnacle of the Chantry, the lord of this realm in spirit, if not in actuality.  +
You have traveled back in time to the Roman era. Here is the origins of all you have come to understand as heroic and villainous.  +
Valkyrie proved herself to Positron by battling the Clockwork King on this spot. Although she did not succeed in defeating him, he was severely damaged and Clockwork activity came to a halt for several weeks afterwards.  +
Twos are wild, but not as wild as you!  +
You have spent a great deal of time working with the military at Firebase Zulu earning the Dimensional Explorer Day Job. Logging out in the Shadow Shard will earn you a Jetpack power, when you log back in, for a short time.  +, Firebase Zulu has classified you as A.W.O.L., but they wouldn't welcome you if you showed up, either.  +
You have tread upon the soil of a parallel dimension and now are ready to expand your horizons. From this point, portals link Firebase Zulu to other operational bases scattered throughout the Shadow Shard. Each minute you spend here places you among a tiny fraction of the human race who have not only left the world of their birth, but breathed the air of an alien world. You are a rare breed, a privileged traveler, a Dimensional Sojourner.  +
Platinum Lake is a popular spot for people in Paragon to sit back and relax. There has been a long legal battle for Chris Jenkins to take down the billboard that he put up there, many saying it spoils the view. Jenkins has won every single case and states that he only has it up to serve the people when the heroes of Paragon 'aren't doing their jobs.'  +
This is where enemies of the State vanish forever. These lost souls have been brought here from the PPD Headquarters for summary execution without review or recourse.  +
Whether intended or not, the structure in front of you looks like a 1980s novelty toy that has seen better days.  +
Your life as a hero takes up so much of your time. Hours day and night patrolling the streets of Paragon City, casting down one villain after the next in your quest for glory and influence. Can nothing else in life command such devotion? The words of loved ones drowned out by the clamor of explosions and blasts of energy, the invitations of friends forgotten the moment a new crisis arises, competing interests shelved in preference for an assault upon just one more arch-villain's stronghold. Before you know it life has passed you by and moved on without you. Your loved ones have kindled romances with another. Your friends have crossed you off of their invite lists. Do you even remember what it was like before you became a hero?  +
This old dock used to be the most popular make-out spot in Paragon City. Today, however, it is more a place of violence than love.  +
Praetoria's water is heavily filtered and sanitized here at the Water Treatment Plant, removing the contaminants of the outside world. Resistance propaganda says Cole adds something back at the same time. Most people just shrug and purchase copious amounts of Enriche to be on the safe side, not believing the Resistance claim that it is the same exact thing as the tap water.  +
