Sorry, kiddo, but this is the cool kids' table. Not saying you're not cool, but hey, you know how it is.

Under Level 10

Looks like we're movin' on up, you know, like those President guys. Or something like that. That was totally way before my time, you know? What I do know is that we're going to need some time to set up our new base. Swing by and talk to me when you're Level 10, and we can check out the new digs.

Under Level 15

I... I need some time to unwind, kiddo. That mission in Galaxy took more out of me than I thought it would. Look, why don't you come back later... say, when you're Level 15ish. Just give me some time.

Description

Wandering around the nation for several years after being discharged from the military, acting as a hired gun to whoever would hire her.

After some time, she got over her disillusionment and remembered why she joined the military to begin with and began fighting for 'what was right'.

Working together with Proton, they fought together to bring justice to Paragon City. Adding Dillo and Flambeaux to the mix, Twinshot is always on the lookout for a fresh face who wants to make a difference.

Story Arc

The Shining Stars - A New Day Dawning (levels 5-9)

Souvenir

Manticore's arrow

You kept this arrow, engraved with the letter 'S', to remember your experiences with a ragtag group of heroes called...

The Shining Stars - A New Day Dawning

You were invited to join with a group of up-and-coming heroes that call themselves the Shining Stars. After Twinshot introduced you to Proton, Flambeaux, and Dillo, everyone was surprised by an unexpected guest, Grym. Having prevented an inexplicable ambush by Arachnos agents, the Shining Stars counted two new members to the group.

Twinshot then directed you to a friend of hers, Miss Liberty. After pointing out that trainers were for novice and experienced heroes alike, Miss Liberty sent you via the city tram to speak with Blue Steel in Kings Row. You did your part in helping Paragon City by assisting him in the arrest of a group of thugs calling themselves The Skulls.

Later, the Shining Star's makeshift hangout was attacked by Arachnos agents. Fortunately, several of your friends were already at home when the assault came. Working together, you were able to fend off the attacks of the servants of Lord Recluse.

All of your friends then hit the streets of Paragon City in hopes of locating the source of the Arachnos attacks. Working together, the Shining Stars were able to track down where they were coming from. After putting all the clues together, you believed that the Arachnos agents were mistakenly targeting you and your friends. Their true target was Manticore, one of the greatest defenders of Paragon City!

After rushing to Manticore's mansion on the outskirts of the city, it appeared to be too late! Arachnos agents had already broken into his home and claimed to have kidnapped him. After fighting your way down to his secret lair beneath the mansion, you would learn that this was all nothing more than a test put together by Manticore himself! Due to your help, the Shining Stars have been 'adopted' by Manticore and can now consider themselves to be a full-fledged supergroup!

Introductions Are In Order

Briefing

Hey there, kid. The name's Twinshot, but you can just call me Twinshot. Your name has been floating around out there for a bit now and I'm hearing good things. I figure that maybe you might want to hang out at the cool kid's table. So I'm gonna go head over to where me and my buddies are hanging out and let them all know you're coming on over. Sound good?

Yeah, I'll hang out with you guys.

Mission Acceptance

Cool, cool. So here's the addy where you can find us and the door code to get in. Stop by whenever and I'll introduce you to all the rest.


Mission Objective(s)

This sounds like the place Twinshot told you to show up at. Find the Intercom Terminal to let Twinshot know you're here.

  • Meet the Gang!
    • Use the Security Intercom Terminal

    • Talk to Proton
    • Talk to Flambeaux
    • Find and talk to Dillo

Debriefing

Thanks for stopping by. Everyone seemed to like your style, so they wanted me to ask you if you wanted to join up with our team. You know, friends and all that stuff. How's that sound, kiddo?

Ongoing Training

Briefing

Hey there, kiddo. So I was thinking... You held your own pretty well with those Arachnos guys storming the place last time, right? But you could always use a couple of pointers here and there. Now I could show you a thing or two, but I'm not really a good teacher. However, I know someone who I could put you in touch with. Interested?

Sure. Where do I find him?

You can find HER outside City Hall. The name's Ms. Liberty. You may have already met her before, but the gal's pretty busy helping people out so you may not have had a real chance to get to know her. You let her know that you're a friend of Twinshot and she'll likely take some time out to chat with you.


Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Ms. Liberty
    • Fort Trident

Mission Objective(s)

  • Ride the Monorail from Atlas Park to Kings Row.
    • Use your map to find the Monorail Station
    • Talk to Blue Steel
    • Defeat Skulls in Kings row!
      • Defeat 10 Skulls

You managed to get a few more Skulls off the streets and made the city that much safer.


Enemies

You've arrived at the Atlas Park monorail station. Now use the tram to travel to Kings Row and talk with Blue Steel at the police station.


Debriefing

You're back, kiddo. I'm hoping Liberty and Steel managed to drive a few of those pointers home in that thick noggin of yours.

Hahaha... I'm joshing with you. Remember, though. Whenever you feel you need to up your powers a bit more, always hit a trainer. Even if you have to ride from one end of the city to the other, it's worth it. Get in touch with me in a while, kid. I might have something else in store for you.

A Spider Infestation

Briefing

How's it going, kiddo. I was thinking we could patrol the city, you know, doing our civic duty and all that hero-ey goodness. But seriously though, doing our part to help stamp out crime will go a long way towards helping the city's future. And I for one like the idea of having a bright and shiny new future, you know? Also, while we're patrolling, I'd like to ask your feelings about that Grym character. Him showing up when he did was a bit coincidental, don't you think? I mean it's one thing to --

Twinshot touches the earpiece she's wearing and pauses for a moment.

Heads up, kiddo. Proton is sending out a distress call. Says he needs our help ASAP.

Distress call? What can we do to help him?

Twinshot gestures to you that she's listening to the message.

Oh that's not good...

Twinshot hands move to her pistols faster than your eye can follow, finishing with a flourishing twirl.

Bad news, kiddo. Looks like Arachnos decided to come back for Round Two. From his message, it sound like it's not just a scouting team, either. What in the heck are they doing all the way over here... and why?

We can figure that out later. For now, we're passing on the patrolling. Instead, you're going in through the front while I'm taking out any perimeter defenses they've set up. I'll meet you inside.


Mission Objective(s)

From the minor blast marks, it would seem Arachnos used expertly localized explosives to blow open the door. Now is when you think it might have been a better idea for Twinshot to have joined you.

  • Help Defend the Shining Stars' Base
    • Use the Security System Console

Notable NPC's

  • Arachnos Invasion Unit (Arachnos) (Boss)


Security System Console

This console is linked to the security system that Proton recently put in place due to the Arachnos intruders gaining entry so easily the last time you were here. It would seem that it was installed a little too late.

WARNING: INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALERT! CONTACT ALL SHINING STARS.

There are several live camera feeds currently being displayed on the console's screen.

The Shining Stars - Big Leagues (levels 10-14)

Souvenir

Inert Meteor Fragment

Proton assures you that despite the incandescent glow, this fragment of the Shivan meteor is completely harmless. You keep it around to remind yourself of when you and your friends were reaching new heights...

The Shining Stars - Big Leagues

After 'rescuing' Manticore, the Shining Stars were provided with a brand new base of operations. You went to the new location to visit Proton, only to find Skulls breaking into his lab! You cleared out the Skulls and helped Proton complete his research, but much of his equipment had been stolen or destroyed.

Proton suspected foul play, so you, Grym, and Dillo all began to investigate the source of the breakin. After some searching and a visit to Steel Canyon University, you discovered that the Clockwork had been buying up all of Proton's stolen lab equipment!

Twinshot sent you and Flambeaux into a Clockwork warehouse, where Proton's equipment had been stashed. You didn't manage to recover all of the stolen parts, but you managed to acquire the Field Stabilizers, which would be necessary for Proton's project in Galaxy City.

In preparation for your entry into the now-destroyed Galaxy City, you went back to Manticore's Mansion and underwent a series of combat training exercises. Twinshot encountered a dangerous glitch in the system, but the two of you made it out in one piece.

When it finally came time to begin the Galaxy City mission, the Shining Stars sprang into action. All six of you worked together to place Proton's stabilizers, but you encountered an odd encounter between Twinshot... and Maelstrom. Maelstrom sent odd robots to attack you, which eventually drew the ire of Manticore.

Manticore pulled you aside, and informed you that one of the Shining Stars had summoned the Praetorians! Aware that a traitor is amongst you, you begin to see your friends in a new light...

The Shining Stars - With Friends Like These (levels 15-19)

Souvenir

The Shining Stars - With Friends Like These

What Manticore told you changed the way you saw your teammates. What seemed like an otherwise innocent band of rag-tag heroes has gained a more sinister element. You resolved to continue working within the Shining Stars, all the while investigating which of your teammates could have betrayed Paragon, and your trust.

After the encounter with the Praetorian Clockwork, Twinshot sent you and Grym to train against some hyper-powered Hellions. When you returned, you learned that Twinshot had discovered numerous interdimensional disturbances that could represent the Praetorians at work.

You investigated one warehouse that was filled with Praetorian Clockwork, and managed to save the hide of a fledgling hero, No Mind, in the process. While you were there, you found some clues that could tie citizens of Paragon to the Praetorians' appearances.

Twinshot asked you to investigate the items you found, which ended up taking you all across Steel Canyon. After speaking with Serge and Detective Martins to no avail, you discovered that an employee at Cooke's Electronics sold illegal hardware, capable of sending and receiving signals across dimensions! You immediately brought this info back to Twinshot for further investigation.

Twinshot and Proton agreed that the info you uncovered could lead to the Praetorian plot. They sent you to Manticore's Mansion to use his network database, hoping you could uncover more about the illicit sale. While you were researching, however, you stumbled onto a file detailing information about your teammates - including a file that connects Twinshot to Praetoria! As you were leaving the mansion, Praetorian Clockwork ported in and ambushed you, and you were forced to fight your way out.

Convinced that Twinshot had set you up, you spoke with Grym and planned your final confrontation. However, when you entered the Shining Stars base to confront Twinshot, it was already under attack! You fought your way through the Clockwork attackers, only to discover that Proton had been building a massive Rift Portal inside your base! His Praetorian allies - whom he believed to be from a future version of Primal Earth - attacked you and your team. You fought them off, and convinced Proton to seek treatment.

In the end, you managed to uncover and stop the Praetorian plot against Paragon City. Unfortunately, the Shining Stars have disbanded, and you have all gone your separate ways.

Perhaps one day you'll reunite with your friends, and the Shining Stars will save the day once again. At this point, not even Proton can tell you what the future holds.
