Art, Psychics & You
This strange advertising catchphrase is suddenly everywhere. You become curious.
The advertisement is for an avant-garde exhibition of the death masks of famed artists. The masks themselves are interesting from an artistic perspective, but part of the allure is the deep psychic impressions of creativity stored within the masks. The pitch is that merely being next to these masks will make anyone a better artist.
While you are checking up on it, you imagine the Carnival of Shadows will definitely attempt to steal these masks for their own purposes as they both represent psychic power and high culture.
The masks are currently being stored awaiting the exhibit. The Carnival must not be allowed to take them.
But you've learned the masks can be incredibly dangerous under certain circumstances. If the Carnies then tried to absorb their psychic impressions, they could wind up hurting themselves on a much deeper level.
 HEROdeath mask collection. |
 VIGILANTE |
Hero Acceptance
Briefing
The death mask collection is tempting bait for the Carnival, but they mustn't be allowed to get their hands on it. The heist is probably already in progress at the storage location for the masks. If you know the Carnies, they're not going to be stopped by whatever security has been arranged.
You have to get there and put a stop to the heist by taking our their ringleader and securing the death masks.
- Stop the Carnival from stealing the death mask collection.
The masks must not be taken. Stop the Carnival.
Mission Objective(s)
The alarms are ringing and the security guards unconscious. The Carnival is already here.
- Stop the Mask Heist!
- 3 Death mask displays to secure, Take down the heist's ringleader
You've stopped the Carnival's death mask heist.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Flambeaux (Rogues Gallery Boss)
- Mistress Reline (Carnival of Shadows Dark Ring Mistress) (Boss)
 |
Death Mask Collection |
| This assortment of the death masks of famed artists is still quite creepy, but safe now. |
|
Ambush! Flambeaux will ambush after collecting the last death mask. Despite her dialogue, she spawns alone. |
Debriefing
You've saved the priceless death masks from being absorbed into the Carnival's collection.
Vigilante Acceptance
Briefing
You've learned the death masks are incredibly psychically potent but inherently unstable. Even the slightest nudge can twist them from being foci of creativity and joy into wellsprings of disorder and insanity. The resulting mind 'viruses' are incredibly dangerous to psychics. The stronger the basic impressions, the more devastating the virus. If you can focus negative thoughts into the masks beforehand, the Carnival will have one heck of a headache when they try to use them. You could cripple a lot of their psychics before they catch on.
But this means they'll have to actually steal the masks, at least temporarily.
- Plant a psychic trap in the masks so they backfire on the Carnival.
The masks are stored in a nearby warehouse. All you need to do is focus negative thoughts into the masks to cause the backlash when the Carnival tries to use them.
You concentrate for a moment on negative thoughts.
|
Negative Impressions |
| These negative feelings conjured from your own imagination will taint the death masks' psychic impressions. The masks will magnify the impressions a million-fold when the Carnies absorb them. |
Mission Objective(s)
Sounds like the Carnival have already started looking for the masks. Won't they be surprised when they find them.
- Booby trap the Mask Collection!
- 4 death masks to booby trap, Defeat Mistress Reline
You let the rest of the Carnival escape with the booby-trapped death masks.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Mistress Reline (Carnival of Shadows Illusionist) (Boss)
Debriefing
You delivered a debilitating mind virus into the Carnival's elite, but at the cost of a priceless art collection. This will definitely set the Carnival of Shadows back for a while.
