Mission:The Superadine Ring - Part Three: Marked For Death
Part Three: Marked For Death
Briefing
Her name is Emily Rodriguez. According to her relatives, she didn't show up to work today.
I talked to Emily's cousin and he said that he's certain the Skulls kidnapped her. Says the cops won't do anything about a missing person's case for 24-hours unless there is evidence of wrong doing, and they just don't have any evidence.
I told him that you could help.
- Where do we start looking?
There's a beat cop who works the Gish by the name of Vic Johansson. He knows the Gish like the back of his hand. Tell him I sent you and he'll drop everything to help you find Emily.
The Skulls are ruthless killers, I... I don't know how long Emily has...
Talk to Vic Johansson
Unnecessary Solicitation
Vic's a good guy, Character, you can trust him to do the right thing.
Mission Objective(s)
- Talk to Vic Johansson
Ambush! A short time after accepting the mission, a group of Skulls will ambush.
Hey, there's the cape who took down Jones, get 'em!
Hey, not too close, ok? You hero types are all good in my book, but I don't need another reason for these Skulls gang bangers to be eyeing me for some sort of initiation kill or badge of honor. I got a wife and kids...
- Stockwell told me you were one of the good cops, was she wrong?
Shauna sent you?
She's like a little sister to me...
Alright, yeah, I'm your man. What's the situation?
- (Fill Vic in on the situation)
Hmmm, that's bad, but I think I know what The Skulls are planning, Character.
Word from the street is that the Skulls have got some sort of indoctrination ceremony that's going down tonight. But we've got neither the clues nor the manpower necessary to go hunting for it.
Vic puts a hand to his badge and traces the star. He looks down, apparently unaware that he was doing it and looks up at you, his eyes steeled.
Emily can't wait for us to get better information. My shift is about over. We'll hit the streets and find her together.
- Thanks, Johansson. Let's get moving. (Enter Mission)
According to Vic Johansson, the Skulls are looking to perform one of their Black Wakes sometime this evening. He suspects that Emily Rodriguez is being taken there as a sacrifice by the Skulls.
If Vic is right, Emily won't have much longer to live after midnight when the Skulls perform their grisly ceremony, murder her, and then have their new recruits get buried in a shallow grave with her body until morning. If that happens, the next person to see Emily's face will be seeing it worn by a Skull grave digger.
Find Emily Rodriguez
- Chernobog: Misery. Finish things here without me.
- Chernobog: The shipment arrived early, I must go.
- Misery: Yes, Chernobog... but...
- Chernobog: What is matter?
- Misery: As a Lord of Death you alone can choose the first death to begin tonight's ceremony.
- Chernobog: Kill the girl first. Show new recruits what happens if they talk to wrong people.
- Misery: My pleasure...

Debriefing
Oh, thank the stars that Emily is alive and well. I heard Juan Jimenez got himself mixed up in this as well. I guess in hindsight that's a good thing. It turns out he got a picture of the Skulls' leader and pocketed his memory card before they trashed his camera.
Juan sent me a copy of the picture and trust me, this is big news...
