New Contact(s)[]
There's an engineer named Kip Cantorum who knows a lot about illegal technology. You should go see him; he might have some good leads for you on the Vahzilok zombies. Kip's business is in Galaxy City.
Kip should be able to help you.
There's a detective who you should meet. Rachel Torres knows all about the happenings on the streets, and can probably give you good leads on the Lost. She can be located in Galaxy City.
Detective Torres is tough and efficient; you might learn a thing or two from her.
You ever been to one of Samuel Pierce's parties? He's an event promoter, and he knows how to put on a good time. He also has a nose for trouble. You should meet him, see if he'll give you a tip on the Vahzilok. Mr. Pierce is promoting a new movie over in Kings Row.
Samuel is somewhat cavalier, but he wants the city cleaned up very badly.
Vic Johansson's good police. He'll steer you towards some interesting opportunities involving the Lost, and help smooth things over with law enforcement. His beat is Kings Row.
Vic is good people. You will enjoy working with him.
There's an EMT named Paco Sanchez who'd like to meet you. He's not only great at his job, but he also works well with heroes, tipping them off whenever he sees something interesting going on with the Hellions and the Circle of Thorns. Paco can be found in Galaxy City.
Paco primarily cares about saving lives.
There's a gun dealer named Carla Brunelli who would like to meet you. She's a very responsible, proactive woman who's helped a number of heroes in her time. She is deeply troubled by the Clockwork. Their presence in Skyway City means that she can usually be found there.
Carla is tough but fair.
There's a talented young lawyer named Athena Currie who you should talk to. She's a big community activist and has had some serious run-ins with the Clockwork. Miss Currie practices law in Steel Canyon.
Athena can really use the help of a hero like you.
Information[]
Mechanic and Inventor
Paula Dempsey moved to Paragon City as a child, when her parents were killed by an invading space armada in the late 60's. She grew up with her grandfather, a famous mechanic who did a lot more than just fix cars. Paula's grandfather maintained the fabulous weapons and equipment used by a hero named Gauge Steele, and Paula grew up hearing stories of their adventures. With a role model like that, there was never any question as to where her career path lay. Today, she not only fixes things, she invents them. She's got a wealth of contacts and has been an excellent resource for new heroes for over a decade.

There is trouble in Steel Canyon. Get your assignment from the Security Chief.
You will probably be dealing with the Outcasts, so be ready for anything.

- Talk to Security Chief in Steel Canyon
| Briefing
Here is some info on the area. I need you to get out on the streets and contain the Outcasts. They can usually be found in Blyde Square or the Cooper District. |
 |
Steel Canyon briefing |
| Steel Canyon is the financial district of Paragon City. Many national banks, insurance companies, and investment firms have their headquarters in this zone. In fact, so much money flows through Steel Canyon, Paragon City ranks among America's richest cities. Success has spurred the construction of so many skyscrapers that the place looks like a canyon made of concrete, glass and metal. The zone isn't without its dangers, though. The Outcasts have claimed the area as their own, and they've recruited a lot of kids with mutant powers related to the elements. That's what the Outcasts love best—beating down their enemies with the power of the elements. |
Mission Objective(s)
- Keep peace in Steel Canyon
- Defeat 10 Outcasts
You have defeated 10 Outcasts.

Debriefing
Well done; those Outcasts are a powerful bunch. It seems the number of mutants in the city is increasing rapidly.
Discourage the Clockwork scavenging in Kings Row[]
Briefing
This Clockwork scavenging is becoming a real problem in Kings Row. Those little metal menaces are taking street lamps, sewer grates, and everything else they can get their mitts on. I need you to discourage the Clockwork scavenging in Kings Row. Otherwise, that whole zone is going to turn into a death trap!
Royal Refinery and Freedom Plaza are particularly overrun, but I'm sure any neighborhood in the zone would welcome your assistance.
Mission Objective(s)
- Combat Clockwork in Kings Row
- Defeat 10 Clockwork
You have discouraged the Clockwork from scavenging in Kings Row.
Debriefing
Kings Row is a lot safer now, thanks to you.
Go to Castenada Export locate any clues you can and shut down the Clockwork plot[]
Briefing
We've got reports of some Clockwork down at the old abandoned Castenada Export warehouse complex. Sources say they're using it as a staging area for a massive attack against the city. We've never heard of the Clockwork trying anything this bold! It's absolutely imperative that you go to Castenada Export and shut down the Clockwork plot!
I hear there's a large robot inside called Clanger. Watch out for it while you are hunting for information.
Mission Objective(s)
This warehouse once belonged to a highly successful company, but there is no evidence of its former glory.
- Defeat Clanger and its guards
- Find evidence of plot
You defeated the Clockwork and found the diary of the Clockwork King.
|
Diary of the Clockwork King |
| This diary is filled with the frenzied ramblings of the Clockwork King. In one section he writes:
'This hero reminds me so much of the vigilante who destroyed my body and left me to this metal shell. I must eliminate this new threat.' |
Notes
- The name of the warehouse can vary. Possibilities include APS Warehousing, Castenada Export, and Jovian Storage.
- The name of the boss can vary. Possibilities include Cables, Clanger, Clockwise, Mecha, and Piston.
Notable NPCs

Debriefing
So, the Clockwork were planning nothing more than your demise! I'm sorry I sent you into a trap, but this diary may well be worth the risk. It should give us valuable new insights into the Clockwork King's madness. I must admit I always wondered why he had transplanted his brain into a Clockwork robot. Now I know. It's no wonder that he hates heroes so much, if it was one of them who consigned him to that fate. It's a sad thing, really. With his brilliant engineering skills, the Clockwork King could have been a hero in his own right.
