Denmark Wants Muscles This Friday

You find a piece of paper with these odd words on it. Reading it over, you discover the following...

This phrase seems to be code to indicate one of the Family's large-scale 'drug sales' going on. Investigating further, you find out that this particular one is happening today in a nearby warehouse. The Family supplies all sorts of enhancing drugs there - excelsior, dyne, even base steroids, which would seem tame compared to dyne or excelsior. Anyone who is interested in any of those drugs are sure to be at this 'convention', looking to score the latest hit or to get enough of a supply to sell on the streets - with the Family approval, of course.

The Family always seem to be at the forefront of the drug industry within Paragon City. However, with this information, you'll be able to storm the convention and catch all of the drug dealers right in the act - putting them all out of business, including the major members of the Family.

Although... You could also stalk one of the Family underbosses leaving the convention - they'll be bringing the money made from this convention to be stored with the rest of their cash. The Family can always replace the goons they lose at a convention, but this will hit them where it really hurts - their wallets, even if it means letting the dealers in that convention get away.

Hero Acceptance

Briefing

All of the Family's main buyers will be gathered at this convention - this would be the perfect time to round them all up and bring them in. However you're aware that this place will be heavily guarded - both by the Family and whoever else might be there to purchase their goods. Not that it matters, really - since you'll make sure everyone there is taken down.

Take down the Family Drug Convention!

You head off towards the location of the drug convention. You're going to show the Family that their drugs aren't welcome in this city - along with all of the people who do business with them.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You'll have to make sure to bring enough evidence so no one gets off on any loopholes.

Mission Objective(s)

There were several cars parked outside of the warehouse - however, they all seemed to belong to...Crey? Is Crey Industries trying to get in on the Family's turf?

• Break up the Drug Convention!
  • 2 Drug Shipments to destroy!, Defeat Antonino Marcone!

You took down all of the drug dealers and stopped the Family's drug trade!

Stalwart's Regret

You defeated the former boxer, Stalwart, who shared his regrets with you afterwards...

Do you know what it's like, Character? To focus all of your life on one thing only to find out that you're just 'not good enough' anymore? I couldn't even save those pitiable Scrapyarders from the Cage Consortium...I couldn't save any of them! If I was just stronger...maybe I could have.

But I can't... I've reached my peak. I can't... I thought if I just had some more dyne... some more of the steroids... that I could push myself harder. It wasn't for me, Character - it was so that I could protect the others.

Take me in, but I warn you. Those bars won't stop me from getting back out. Nothing will stop me from doing what's right - not even my own health.

Stalwart dialogue

Before combat:

Stalwart: Listen... just don't tell anyone I was here, all right? This is supposed to be quick and easy...

Combat start:

Stalwart: Character! Not you... not you of all people. I can't just let you go, now that you've seen me here. I'm sorry!

At 75% Life:

Stalwart: You don't understand, Character! I need this to keep going!

At 50% Life:

Stalwart: Everyone else is in their prime, but me... I'm fading. I need something to keep myself moving!

Stalwart: Just... just walk away and we can call this even, Character!

Defeated:

Stalwart: I used to be... the best... back in my time...

Crey dialogue

Vigilant: It's surprising that the boxer is here - I wouldn't figure him for a druggie.

Patrol Guard: Character! This won't be good for business.

---

Antonino Marcone dialogue

Before combat:

Antonino Marcone: Boys, I ain't gonna lie. I got a feeling we're in trouble here. If it's one of them heroes, we gotta take 'em down real quick. Can't let them boys in Crey know what's going on here!

Combat start:

Antonino Marcone: I knew my feelin' was right! You're in over your head, Character! WAY over your head! Call for reinforcements!

At 50% Life:

Antonino Marcone: I'll be out, Character... you'll never keep me locked up!

Ambush! Crey will ambush the player when Antonio Marcone's health reaches 75%.

Crey Ambusher dialogue

Field Agent: Character is on the premises. Take them down and continue the convention on schedule.

Debriefing

The Paragon Police should be arriving to deal with everyone you took care of in that warehouse. It seems Antonino Marcone's influence within Crey was very widespread - enough to get other members of Crey to approve of the drug deal. You'll have to keep an eye out for this in the future.

Vigilante Acceptance

Briefing

Who exactly gets away at this drug convention doesn't matter to you - they can sell all the drugs they want, but they'll be in for a surprise when they find out that their main dealer has been hit - and hard. You're going to stalk out the warehouse location, wait for any of the higher ups in the Family to leave, then follow them to wherever they're keeping their money.

Destroy the Family's main source of income!

You wait outside of the warehouse until you see something that catches you off guard - a higher up within Crey Corporation leaving the warehouse with several escorts, all of them putting large briefcases full of money into the back of a truck.

Something isn't right here...you begin to track the truck down, following it to a nearby Crey warehouse.

Unnecessary Solicitation

What is Crey doing in the Family business?

Mission Objective(s)

The warehouse is quiet - the man who brought in the money dropped it off somewhere deep inside of here.

• Investigate the...Crey Warehouse?
  • 'Question' the Crey Security!
  • Find the Crey Agent in charge!
  • Destroy Crey's money!!

You destroyed Antonino Marcone's main source within Crey - looks like he'll have a tough time peddling his goods now.

Crey Security conversation

Crey Security

Speaking with Crey Security

The Crey Security guard is speaking on a cellphone - his eyes widen as you come into view, reaching for a button to alarm the base to your presence.

• (Disarm the guard and quesion him)

You disarm the guard and throw him to the ground. He lets out a groan of pain.

Ugh! L-let me go! What do you want with me?!

• Tell me everything about what's going on here - now!

O-okay! Antonino Marcone, he's with Crey! He convinced all of us we'd get paid big time if we helped out the Family with their drug trade! Look, the other members of Crey don't know about this, I swear! And I'm not even a g-guard! I'm just an intern here! You gotta let me go!

With that information gleaned, you knock out the man, kicking him to the side.

• The Family through Crey. That's enough for me to move forward.

• Push that button and it'll be the last thing you ever do

The guard freezes in place, staring at you in fear. His hand shakes before he drops the trigger for the alarm.

W-what do you want from me? Just tell me whatever it is! I don't want to get hurt!

• What is Crey doing in the drug trade?!

It was all Antonino Marcone's idea! He... he joined up with Crey, I don't know HOW he got in! But he's in! And he said if we worked with him we'd see our paychecks get real big! Listen, I'm just doing this for the money, I'm really not trying to hurt anyone, I swear! You gotta believe me!

• Why should I believe you're any better than the people here?

The guard runs up to you, pleading.

I'm just an intern! They told me if I helped out the Marcones with their drug trade that I'd make a lot of money! I didn't want to hurt anyone, I just wanted to get some more money, that's all, I swear!

• You disgust me. (Knock out the man)

The guard collapses at your feet.

• That's that. Time to investigate this place...

• (Leap forward and knock out the guard)

You knock out the security guard, though you were unable to use him for any information regarding what's further on in this warehouse..

• Might as well keep moving forward.

Agent Meyers dialogue

Before combat:

Agent Meyers: Did Antonino get back yet? We need to make sure he's kept in his place - those Marcones tend to get a little too uppity for their own good.

Combat start:

Agent Meyers: Character?! How did you get here?!

Debriefing

You destroyed all the money that Crey and the Marcones made from the transactions, along with Antonino Marcone's allies within Crey. He'll be left without any resources now to peddle his wares - and he'll know that it was your doing. You can just imagine the fearful look on his face now.
