Amanda Vines
Overview
Amanda Vines is a captive in need of rescue. She has a faction of WSPDR News, and usually has slightly less hit points than a Lieutenant of the same level, which probably means she's usually a Boss-class captive, with the correspondant amount of Hit Points. She has no attacks at all. In all of her appearances, Amanda has to be rescued and escorted to the mission exit. You'll be ambushed by several waves of captors on your way out. She works for the WSPDR News.
Villains can find her:
- On the Recover Amanda Vines and find out what she's learned mission from Marshal Brass as an NPC and an Hostage.
- On the Find out what's wrong with the Power Transfer System for Marshal Brass mission from Marshal Brass as an NPC and an Hostage.
- On the Save Amanda Vines mission from Television as an NPC and an Hostage.
Information
Amanda Vines is the star reporter of WSPDR news. Her investigative abilities have been a thorn in Lord Recluse's side for years, but her popularity has made disposing of her problematic. One of these days she's going to finally push an investigation too far, but until then she's going to keep searching for the truth.

It will be much better after we've..."changed your mind". Hah-hah-hah!
