Mission:Division: Line - Stop the Rikti experiment and the battle on the street

Stop the Rikti experiment and the battle on the street

Briefing

There is a major disturbance occurring, Character. A large number of Rikti troops have taken control over several city blocks, and are preparing what appears to be a major dimensional experiment or mass transfer. Civil authorities were able to evacuate most civilians, but there are still people trapped in the area. This situation has been further complicated by verified reports of Rikti fighting other Rikti. An emergency of this nature supercedes the necessities of proper chain of command; I am thus taking the initiative and requesting your assistance to stop the Rikti battle on the streets and/or rescue the civilians and/or disrupt the Rikti's experiment.

There is little time before this situation will get out of hand. I would estimate that you have approximately 2 hours to stabilize the situation.

• Stop the Rikti experiment and the battle on the street

While other forces are preparing to counter-attack, it is important to either evacuate the remaining civilians, or to prevent the dimensional experiment the Rikti are performing by incapacitating their machines. You will need to take the light rail over to the site of the battle. It's been contained with an emergency force field, so that should make your job easier.

Unnecessary Solicitation

While other forces are preparing to counter-attack, it is important to either evacuate the remaining civilians, or to prevent the dimensional experiment the Rikti are performing by incapacitating their machines. Both objectives are important, but you only need to accomplish one or the other.

Hostages dialogue

Hostage: Looks like I picked the wrong day to go to the store!
Hostage: Thank you, Character. I'll go out to the relief station and help others.
Hostage: I heard Paragon City was exciting, Character, but I think I've had enough excitement for a while!
Civilian: I thought I was in trouble, Character, but then the Rikti started fighting each other and it all went crazy!

Division: Line

It all began when a strange Rikti dimensional experiment on the streets of the city turned into a pitched battle among the Rikti themselves! You went in to shut down the experiment and free civilians trapped between the warring sides. Though the situation was contained in the end, you were let wondering why Rikti would ever fight each other?

Debriefing

Thanks to your swift intervention, civilian casualties were low and we were able to determine that the Rikti were performing some sort of large-scale measurement. We were unable to determine what they were measuring.

I am disturbed that the forces brought to bear in what seems to have been an internecine struggle were powerful enough to challenge you. The Rikti way is one of monolithic harmony. What could cause such a schism among them?
