Introductions[]

Contact Introduced By[]

  • None (Desdemona is a broker for the Cap Au Diable zone.)

New Contact(s)[]

I'd like to introduce you to Dr. Dmitri Krylov. He was a metahuman researcher in the Soviet Union before it collapsed. He came to the Rogue Isles in order to continue his work. Some of his connections can still get him Technology and Science Enhancements.

He's a brilliant researcher with flexible morals. All in all, a valuable contact.

Have you met Dr. Shelly Percey? Technically, she's not a real doc, since she got kicked out of medical school for, shall we say, unorthodox techniques. But she's been using that title since she's been here. She's deeply interested in super powers, both natural and artificially created. She can give you some good tips on the Goldbrickers. She's got a lot of connections in the medical community, which get her Mutation and Science Enhancements.

Shelly's a bit strange. Scary, even. Sometimes I think her thirst for knowledge has made her a little insane.

Have you met Peter Themari yet? Well, you should count yourself lucky. Themari's the nastiest old soul Cap au Diable has ever known; even being in his presence is a little sickening. Still, he knows a lot. He could give a boost to your career. And he can get his hands on Mutant and Magic Enhancements, if that's what you need.

If you're interested in the arcane arts, you should really speak with Ashley McKnight. It's in her blood... literally. Her father is a member of a group called The Midnight Squad. She's been doing some work with him and the group for awhile now. Who knows what trouble she's getting into.

Information[]

Broker

Desdemona is without a doubt Cap au Diable's snappiest dresser. She has more 'Best Dressed' awards than she has diamonds, and that's saying something. Those diamonds are how she got her nickname. When the light shines on her, she 'glints'.

Missions[]

Rob Kings Row bank[]

Briefing

Ready to cause some mayhem in Paragon City? Go to Kings Row and hit one of the banks there. Once you hit Kings Row you'll have 15 minutes to rob the bank and escape.

This is a Mayhem Mission. You can earn extra time by destroying property and creating diversions away from the bank itself.

Each type of item rewards a single time bonus after you destroy a certain amount of that item. For each person on your team, you will need to destroy more of that particular item to get the time bonus.

Two random side missions can be found on this map. Keys (found by defeating certain enemies) are needed to unlock these side missions. Each completed side mission also rewards a time bonus.

Every character that is at least level 10 receives a special temporary power the first time they successfully complete this mission.

Expect some resistance from Longbow. They've been monitoring the activities of villains in the Rogue Isles for quite some time.
