Mission:Common - Save the lawyers from the Devouring Earth
Save the lawyers from the Devouring Earth
Briefing
A horde of Devouring Earth creatures was just spotted swarming the offices of Wolffe, Wolffe, & Wolffe, the law firm. It seems the Wolffes are arguing a big case on behalf of the logging industry, and the Devouring Earth wants them dead before they can make their closing remarks. Someone has to save those lawyers from the Devouring Earth.
The Wolffe firm has a long history of fighting environmental regulation. To be honest, I'm surprised something like this hasn't happened before.
Mission Objective(s)
A beautiful oak desk has been snapped in two, and the plush carpet has been ripped to pieces by furious claws
- Save firm from Devouring Earth
- 15 lawyers remaining
You defeated the Devoured and discovered that one of them had a strange mutation. After calling Jenny Firkins, you receive instructions to take the creature to Wilma Peterson, the waste disposal expert.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Lawyer x15 (NPC Hostage)
- Devoured (Devouring Earth Lesser Devoured)
 |
Devouring Earth mutant |
| One of the Devouring Earth creatures you defeated had strange mutations, the likes of which you have never seen before. A pair of gill-like slits runs up each side of the creature's neck, and a grossly swollen throat indicates the likely presence of new glandular material. |
|
Ambush!
After exiting the mission you will be ambushed by a single group of Devouring Earth creatures |
Mission Objective(s)
- Take mutant to Wilma Peterson
Briefing
You're right. In all my efforts cleaning up after the Devoured, I've never come across a mutation like this. Just give me a second to write up my findings. In fact, let's get Jenny Firkins on the phone right now and discuss the situation.
Character, Jenny Firkins says you've got to get over to the Pinckney & Sons Law Firm right away! I guess the Devouring Earth isn't through taking the law into its own hands.

Mutagenic spore analysis |
| According to Wilma Peterson's findings, these Devouring Earth creatures are able to release mutagenic spores from the gill-like slits in their throats. Borne on the air, these spores would be impossible to contain, and would likely transform hundreds of Paragon City citizens into minions of the Devouring Earth. |
Mission Objective(s)
Pinckney & Sons has come under public scrutiny more than once for their defense of polluting industries. It's no wonder the Devouring Earth are here
- Save firm from Devouring Earth
- 4 lawyers remaining
You defeated the Devouring Earth and rescued the lawyers.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Lawyer x4 (NPC Hostage)
- James Wolffe, Esq. (Devouring Earth Lesser Devoured)
Notes
- The mission cannot be completed until all enemies have been defeated.
Debriefing
So the Wolffes were turned into Devouring Earth creatures? A horrible fate. At least you were able to rescue the lawyers at Pinckney & Sons. If you ever get sued, you'll know who to turn to.
