Level 20-24
Have you ever read any of Jim Bell's articles in the paper? He's a great reporter who's been doing a lot of articles on the Tsoo and the Warriors. Jim has access to Training Enhancements.
Jim is outspoken and opinionated, but he is extremely well informed.
There's a wise old man named Dr. Cheng who knows just about everything there is to know about the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. He has access to Training Enhancements.
Dr. Cheng is very wise, Hero. Pay close attention to his words.
I'd love for you to meet Polly Cooper. She's a coordinator for the Civil Air Patrol, and she knows a lot about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Polly has access to Training Enhancements.
Miss Cooper is very skilled at her job and should prove to be a valuable asset to you.
I know a guy named Kevin Cordell who runs a small security consulting business. He's heard about you and would like to talk sometime about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Kevin used to be a hero, and he still has access to Training Enhancements.
Kevin is not easily impressed, but I think you will do just fine with him, Character.
I'd like you to meet Oswald Cuthbert. He's a probation officer and thus has a lot of contact with the sordid side of Paragon City. He often uses heroes like you to help him out with the Sky Raiders and the Council. Oswald can get you Training Enhancements.
Good choice, Character, and good hunting
Do you ever read Dennis Ewell's columns? He's quite a writer, and he told me he'd like your help taking out the Tsoo and the Warriors. Dennis has access to Training Enhancements.
Dennis isn't convinced that the heroes of Paragon City are much better than the villains, but he is coming around.
Wil Eziquerra is an excellent reporter who specialized in stories on the Sky Raiders and the Council. His sources usually keep him stocked up with Training Enhancements.
Wil is going to be a great resource for you, Character.
I have to admit that Georgia Fields doesn't have the best reputation. No one really knows how she gets her information, but she's an excellent source on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. She is usually able to get her hands on training enhancements.
If you are careful, Georgia can be of great assistance to you.
There's an amazing guy named Tyler French who runs a youth sports program; it keeps troubled teens off the streets. He hears a lot and likes to help heroes out, especially with the Tsoo and the Warriors. Tyler has access to Training Enhancements.
Tyler is really great for the kids, Character. Help him out however you can.
I've been asked to introduce you to Lt. Gosford from the Paragon City Police Department. He runs a special unit that is focused on bringing down the Sky Raiders and the Council. Gosford's connections within the department give him access to Training Enhancements.
Gosford is used to working with heroes. You will get along fine.
My friend Justin Greene has asked to see you. He's a coordinator for his local community watch group. He used to be a hero, so he knows how to help you clean up groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. Justin has access to Training Enhancements.
I think Justin will like you a great deal, Character.
If you can gain his confidence, Oliver Haak is a rich source of information on the occult. Don't be put off by his demeanor, Character, I know that you will impress him. He can really help you out against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Oliver has access to Training Enhancements.
Your actions will speak for you with Oliver.
I'd like you to go see my friend Piper Irving. She's an anthropologist working here in the city. She knows a ton about the obscure beliefs of the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. Piper knows where to get Training Enhancements.
I am sure you will find Piper quite knowledgeable.
Detective Rondel Jackson is a great guy to talk to if you want the police perspective on groups like the Sky Raiders and the Council. He's also the one to talk to if you need Training Enhancements.
Detective Jackson is a hardworking straight-shooter. He won't steer you wrong.
I have no doubt you will enjoy working with Professor Keller
Although he is a bit eccentric, Joseph Keller has a great deal of knowledge. He can greatly aid anyone who wishes to go up against the Banished Pantheon or the Circle of Thorns. Professor Keller has access to Training Enhancements.
If you ever have a computer problem or want a lead on some computer related crime, you should talk to Justine Kelly. She's a whiz at technical stuff and a bit of an online hero in her own right. Lately she has been focusing her attention on the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Justine has access to Training Enhancements.
Justine is a very skilled young lady.
The INS has a woman named Amanda Loomis who works well with heroes. She is trying to keep the Tsoo situation from turning any uglier than it already has, and she also has a deep interest in the Warriors. Amanda should be able to get you Training Enhancements.
Amanda likes to use metaphors, but she understands the realities of Paragon City all too well.
If you are looking for a partner to help you take down the Banished Pantheon, Andrea Mitchell would be a great choice. She is very dedicated and her connections are top notch. She also has a lot of interest in the Circle of Thorns. Andrea has access to Training Enhancements.
I have a good feeling about you and Andrea.
Melanie Peebles has the power to see things through her dreams. Her most recent dreams have been about the Sky Raiders and the Lost. Melanie has access to Training Enhancements.
Do not dismiss Melanie's guidance lightly.
I know a rather interesting fellow named Hinckley Rasmussen. He works as a researcher for the Midnight Squad and takes an interest in helping heroes like you fight the Tsoo and the Warriors. Hinckley has access to Training Enhancements.
He is a bit eccentric, but Hinckley knows his stuff.
Cain Royce is strongly committed to his crusade against the Banished Pantheon and the Circle of Thorns. You would do well to have him as an ally. Cain can get you Training Enhancements.
Paragon City's evil-doers will soon feel the weight of this choice.
I'd like you to meet Lt. Manuel Ruiz from the Gang Unit. He specializes in running undercover operations, and he's always looking for trustworthy individuals to help him out with the Tsoo and the Warriors. The department supplies Lt. Ruiz with Training Enhancements.
Lt. Ruiz has put a lot of gangers away himself; he can help you do the same.
I think you should talk to John Strobel from the Citizen Defense Coalition. It's a group of ex-military and law enforcement officers that helps heroes like you from time to time. Right now their attention is focused on the Sky Raiders and the Council. John has a few sources that can get him Training Enhancements.
John is very patriotic and somewhat idealistic, but he's got a keen eye for trouble.
I've been asked to keep this very quiet, but someone from the CIA wants to meet you. Her name is Kirsten Woods and she knows quite a bit about the Sky Raiders. She also thinks there may be more to the Lost than meets the eye. As a CIA operative, Agent Woods has access to Training Enhancements.
Keep a low profile when you are working with Kirsten.
Level 25-29
You should go see Collin Larson. He's a cybernetics expert and a real friend to heroes everywhere. He knows a great deal about the Freakshow and the Family. He also has Training Enhancements.
Collin is well suited to work with a hero like you, Character.
There's a scientist named Marvin Weintraub who's quite the expert on advanced technologies, the Freakshow, and the Family. He also has training enhancements.
Marvin has done as much to help the heroes of Paragon City as anyone in the world.
Information
Weapons Proliferation Expert
The rapid and rampant spread of high-powered weaponry throughout Paragon City is a cause of some concern to government and civic groups alike. Jake Kim is one of the world's foremost experts on weapons proliferation, and he recently came to Paragon City to study the phenomenon up close. With so many criminal and paramilitary groups using high-powered weaponry, it is surprisingly easy for deadly weapons to fall into the wrong hands. Jake does what he can to advise both law enforcement officials and heroes about the best ways to combat this growing menace. He provides valuable information about possible arms proliferation sites and works closely with the defense industry to improve their internal security systems. He has already been credited with keeping hundreds of powerful weapons off the street, and as his network of contacts and helpful heroes grows he is becoming even more effective.

Mission Objective(s)
- Assist the Security Chief
Here's some information on the area. We've been having a lot of trouble with the Family, especially in Crey Cove and Bell Point. I really need you to lend a hand.
This is where many brave heroes defended the city against an invading space armada back in the 50's. Paragon City renamed the area Independence Port, in honor of the heroes who died in that epic battle. You'll see the big statue of Cassiopeia by the bridge; she was one of the famous heroes who died in that fight. It's a shame that organized crime runs the docks nowadays. The Family pulls all the strings here, despite the best efforts of law enforcement.
