Find the Council defector (34-35)

Briefing

I arranged a meeting with Kevin Jones, a kid who got caught up in the Council and who's trying to get himself out. He's late. Hours late. Character, I'm getting worried that his superiors may have found out that he's planning to defect. Can you find the Council defector for me? If the Council found out he intended to meet me, there's no telling what they might do to him.

Mission Acceptance

I'd like you to raid a base where he used to be stationed and look for him there. Thank you, Character. I'm the one who convinced Kevin to come forward with information about the Council. If anything happens to him, I'll feel responsible.

Find Council defector

Unnecessary Solicitation

Have you found Kevin yet? The Council are onto him, I know it!

Mission Objective(s)

The alert at this small base has not been triggered, but there is a tension in the men you see. Something has them all on edge, and it isn't your presence.

  • Find Council defector
    • 2 clues to find

Though you didn't find the defector, you did find some clues at the Council base. After calling in to your contact, you receive instructions to hit the streets and look for a Council soldier who can help you find the lab where the defector was taken.

Enemies

Council

Notable NPCs

  • None

You found a note.

Clue
Council note

You found this note on a desk in a Council base. It reads:

'If he has been talking to the heroes, there's only one thing to do: make him one of the War Wolves. That will give any other malcontents something to think about, and there'll be no place for him but with us.'

Ambush! Upon exiting the mission, there will be an ambush by the Council.

Interrogate Council soldiers

Unnecessary Solicitation

I need you to get back on the streets. One of these Council jokers knows where that lab is, I'm sure of it.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Interrogate Council soldiers
    • Defeat 30 Council

You defeated the Council and learned some valuable information.

Enemies

Council
Clue
Council interrogations

After interrogating several Council soldiers, you learned the exact location of the lab where the grotesque War Wolves are created.

Rescue Council defector

Unnecessary Solicitation

Please hurry, Character. If the Council turns Kevin into a War Wolf, I'll never forgive myself.

Mission Objective(s)

It's hard to believe a normal human man can be turned into something as strange and repulsive as the War Wolves.

  • Rescue Council defector
    • Find the defector

You rescued Kevin Jones, the Council defector.

Enemies

Council

Notable NPCs

You found some interesting files.

Clue
The War Wolves

These files detail some information on the War Wolves. The creatures are created by fusing a fragment of a dying Nictus with a human being. Sometimes the process results in a powerful Galaxy soldier, but when the Nictus fragment has decayed substantially, the result is a War Wolf. According to some notes in the back of the file, transformation into a War Wolf has become a popular punishment for the most intractable Council soldiers. The transformed man is left without the reason or wherewithal to rebel, and other potential rebels are quickly cowed.

Debriefing

I won't forget this, Character. You did a good thing for a man who's ready to turn his life around. With the information Kevin's provided, we're ready to move on several key Council installations. It looks like this could be a big break in our ongoing struggle against this menace.
