Rich People Are Dumb (20-29)

Villain Morality Mission

During your exploits, you've heard rumors of the former head of a guild of assassins, Mitsumoto Hagashi, changing his ways for the better of the public. He is now a well known and beloved figure in Paragon, despite his shady past.

You find an article on the internet detailing what exactly he'll be doing next...

Mitsumoto Hagashi — Land Developer
COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY FOR RIKTI SHELTER
Former criminal Mitsumoto Hagashi will be present today for a commencement ceremony in Boomtown. He is funding the construction of a shelter for those people who have lost their homes in the last Rikti War, as well as funding the PPD's continued effort towards making Boomtown safe for the public.
The ceremony will be held later today and is expected to be a huge success. If all goes well, the shelter will be constructed within the year, with more to come.
This effort will be a large step towards the reconstruction in Boomtown, an issue that has plagued the city for the past few years.

Boomtown is a known avenue for various villains and what not to get in and out of Paragon City - not to mention the location of several 5th Column training camps. If it were to be revitalized, it could spell trouble for all those with operations within the city.

As well... Hagashi is valued highly amongst the people of Paragon - meaning if he were to be captured, the city would pay top dollar to have him back.

...If you feel like they deserve to have him back, that is.

WARNING: This is a Morality Mission. Completing this mission will change your alignment to Villain. Becoming a Villain means you will be unable to travel to Paragon City. Any ties to the heroic world will be lost.

  • Interrupt the ceremony and kidnap Hagashi

WARNING: This is a Morality Mission. Completing this mission will maintain your current alignment of Villain, removing any progress you may have made on any other alignments.
Are you sure you want to do this?

Silent and Deadly
  • Yes, give Hagashi the 'christening' he deserves.

It'll be a simple matter of getting into Boomtown - it isn't exactly the most secure area within Paragon City. Afterwards it'll be another matter getting to Higashi. From what you've heard, the PPD will be out in force to fight off any potential attacks from the 5th Column.

You'll have to weaken the PPD's forces in the area first before you can get Higashi out.

At that point, it'll be as simple as making your demands and then collecting the money that they will bring.

Of course...if the powers that be in Paragon try anything, you'll have to ... show them the consequences of double-crossing you.

  • Kidnap and ransom off Mitsumoto Hagashi!

You'll have to make your way into Boomtown quickly before the ceremony is over and done with - hurry!

Unnecessary Solicitation

After this, you'll either be rolling in a large amount of money, or be feared by the people of Paragon. Both are suitable to your interests.

Mission Objective(s)

You step out of the truck to hear the sounds of the PPD walking around. Time to get to work.

  • Hold Mitsumoto Hagashi hostage!
    • Destroy the PPD's Supplies!
    • Destroy the remote generator powering the local police drones!
    • Destroy the PPD's emergency supply cache!
    • Defeat any incoming PPD
    • Kidnap the Land Developer and force him to make a ransom message.

    • Defeat Silent Blade

The bombs are all set - now to get far away enough before they go off!

We weren't prepared for this!

Mission Exit

As you entered the truck to leave Boomtown, the tunnels around you shook from the explosion.

Papers around Paragon proclaimed that you were responsible for the explosion - and the loss of Hagashi's life. The people of Paragon mourn his loss, while the authorities have put out multiple warrants for your arrest.

It's too bad that Longbow just had to send in Silent Blade to play the part of the hero - her dear father might still be alive today if she had just followed your plan.
