• Jenny Firkins
• Allison King
• Phillipa Meraux
• Lou Pasterelli
• Peter Stemitz
• Merisel Valenzuela

Contact Introduces

Multiple contact options

Go talk to one of my other sources.

Single contact option

You should talk to Anton Sampson.

Level 30-34

• Jose Escalante

You should introduce yourself to Jose Escalante, an important business man who helps heroes fight criminals who impact business and commerce, such as the Council and the Devouring Earth. He works mostly with mutants and has access to Focus and Genetic Alteration Enhancements.

Jose is the kind of person that has kept Paragon City running, despite all the disasters we've faced. We can all learn a lot from him.

• Jenny Firkins

Jenny Firkins is an environmentally conscious scientist who has a personal stake in bringing down the Devouring Earth and Crey. She is very dedicated to her work with science heroes and has access to Invention and Genetic Alteration Enhancements.

Jenny cares very much about Paragon City, Character. I think you will find working with her a pleasure.

• Allison King

Allison King is psychic; She's quite adept at gathering information from people's minds. She has a great deal of knowledge about the Circle of Thorns and the Council. She works primarily with magic heroes, and has access to relic and focus enhancements.

Allison is kind, and caring. Take good care of her.

• Phillipa Meraux

I'd love for you to work with Phillipa Meraux, a former hero who now specializes in counter-terrorism. Go and see her if you want more information on the Rikti or Crey. She works primarily with natural heroes and has access to Gadget and Relic Enhancements.

Phillipa is very demanding, but her sources are top notch.

• Lou Pasterelli

You might want to go introduce yourself to Lou Pasterelli. His politics are more than a little radical and he's had some run-ins with the authorities, but he can be a great help against the Devouring Earth and Crey. He works primarily with science heroes and has access to Invention and Genetic Alteration Enhancements.

Lou is a firebrand, but he knows how to get things done!

• Peter Stemitz

Peter Stemitz is an interesting case. People say the soul of an ancient shaman dwells within him. Both souls speak through Peter's body, which can be a little disconcerting. He has a great deal of knowledge about the Circle of Thorns and the Council. He works primarily with magic heroes, and has access to Relics and Focus Enhancements.

Be warned, Peter and the shaman will both speak to you. Expect the shift in speech.

• Merisel Valenzuela

Merisel Valenzuela is dedicated to freedom, especial freedom of information. She has many details on the Devouring Earth and the Council. She's very dedicated to her work with mutants and has access to Focus and Genetic Alteration enhancements.

Good luck with Merisel, I think you will find her point of view refreshing.

Level 34-39

• Anton Sampson

If you are looking for someone who has information on Nemesis, you should speak to Anton Sampson. He is an expert in nanotechnology, and he loves working with technological heroes. Anton has access to Invention and Gadget Enhancements.

There have been some strange stories about Anton since he became obsessed with Nemesis, but he provides extremely detailed information.

Information

Media Watchdog

Neal Kendrick began his career as an investigator for the FCC. He was determined to take down big media corporations who were circumventing laws against media consolidation, but he wasn't prepared for the clout such corporations could wield. He discovered that some powerful CEOs were using blackmail to force local television stations to sell, but when he took his findings to his bosses, they refused to back up his efforts to arrest the criminals. So Neal quit and became a freelance media watchdog. He first started working with heroes about four years ago, when the Dawn Patrol asked him to look into some false allegations made against them by a tabloid television show. Since then he's worked closely with heroes, many of whom are happy to help him keep the big media outlets honest.

Prior to Introduction

You really should go speak with Active Contact.

Briefing

Character, you've got to rescue the O'Gaffney Law firm from the Circle of Thorns! Those mystics are over there right now, chanting up a storm. I think they're planning to sacrifice those lawyers. Please, help them!

Mission Acceptance

You know as well as I that the Circle's rituals are often brutal. We can't let such things happen to our citizens.

It's strange that they targeted that law firm. You should try to find out why the Circle is there.

Defeat Freakshow in Brickstown

Briefing

Brickstown's been having a problem with the Freakshow lately. Freaks are prowling around, no doubt looking over Zigursky penitenciary looking and thinking of all their fellow freaks incarcerated there. I'd like you to help them get a closer look at the Ziggurat. From the inside. The Freakshow's numbers need to be brought down before they try something.

Need text

Mission Objective(s)

• Need objective
  • Need objective

Debriefing

The Freakshow are going to be hanging around Brickstown for a while, Hero, but thanks to you a lot more of them will be doing so from the inside of the Ziggurat. Well done.

Go to Crey's Folly and defeat Nemesis

Briefing

You'd think that no one would ever want to go to the polluted wasteland of Crey's Folly, but it seems that the Nemesis Army has been working in the area. I don't know what their plans are, but they can't be up to any good. I'd like to ask you to impede whatever operations Nemesis forces are planning in Crey's Folly.

Mission Objective(s)

• • Defeat 35 Nemesis

Debriefing

You did very well fighting those Nemesis soldiers. Wether or not they are actually controlled by the real Nemesis, I think that the Nemesis army is counting on being able to intimidate heroes and villains alike with Nemesis' fearsome reputation. I'm glad to know that this generation of heroes will refuse to be intimidated.
