Your Personal Blog

Alignment Mission

You find a cellphone that has a link to a website on it in a text message. Clicking on the link, you're brought to a website entitled 'Character's Personal Blog'.

...

You look to see what's on your supposed personal blog...

Dear Bloggers <3,

Character here, and I'm EXCITED to be posting to you all today! :) You know that whole deal I've got going on now where I'm wandering around Paragon City? Guess what! :O It's all a giant scam! >:) I'm actually planning on blowing the WHOLE city up! <:O That's right! I've got it all planned out and everything! It's going to be the best time ever.^_^ I really hope some heroes who can't fight back try to stop me, 'cause they're going to LOVE dealing with all the Freakshow that I've got helping me out! <_< I'll even give out the location of the caves where I'm planning everything!

Bloggers, if you're reading this, you'll see that I am the only one who really can make a scene here in Paragon City! You'll be seeing me on the news soon, ta ta!

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Character

... seriously? Seriously? Someone is trying to impersonate you? You don't know who this might be, but you do know this is going to look real bad if this person isn't stopped. The time this was posted was a few hours ago, meaning there's a good chance either this plan was stopped, or some gullible heroes went to try to stop it and failed. Regardless, it might be a serious problem if you just leave this be.

HERO: Stop the person blogging as you!

Whoever is posing as you in this blog post is going to be in a world of hurt once you find them. Aside from endangering the lives of hapless heroes in Paragon, they're trying to ruin your very reputation with that blog! As if you would ever use that many <3's to end a letter! Time to show this person that you're none too happy with this current situation.

• Stop the mysterious blogger's reign of terror

The cavern that this blogger is located in shouldn't be too far away. You'll have to rescue whatever heroes have already been captured before confronting this person who has been posing on you in the internet.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You'll have to get moving before they try to make any more blog posts in your name.

Mission Objective(s)

You can hear the sound of the Freakshow laughing up ahead. It looks like they've managed to capture a few heroes.

• Stop the Blogger's Reign of Terror
  • 3 heroes to rescue
  • Defeat the Blogger

You saved all the heroes and discovered the identity of the mysterious blogger: Flambeaux!

LeoKnight dialogue

Before Combat:

Metal Swiper: Oooo, we're real scared! Let's just gut this pig and get it over with.

LeoKnight: You're going to regret crossing me when I get back up!

Combat Start:

Metal Swiper: We'll kill Character too!

LeoKnight: Character?! I don't need your help!

Once Freed:

LeoKnight: Hmph. This doesn't mean I trust you, Character.

Snow Maiden dialogue

Before Combat:

Juicer Freak: We're gonna enjoy slicin' ya up, we're gonna earn some respect back for the Freakshow!

Snow Maiden: Get away from me!

Combat Start:

Juicer Freak: It's the real Character! Kill 'em and sort the body parts later!

Snow Maiden: Character! I should've known it wasn't you behind all of this!

Once Freed:

Snow Maiden: Thank you, Character. I... apologize for thinking you would want to blow up Paragon City.

Strongheart dialogue

Before Combat:

Stunner Freak: You wanna call me a fool one more time? I ain't got any orders to keep you alive, heart boy.

Strongheart: You're all fools to believe you're going to win!

Combat Start:

Stunner Freak: Looks like we got ourselves a wannabe hero in the area!

Strongheart: It's Character...?

Once Freed:

Strongheart: Thank you for everything, Character. I should have never believed it was you behind the blog post.

Freakshow dialog

Juicer Freak: We're gonna start us some sorta cleansing soon, yeah?
Stunner Freak: Yeah, orders from Dreck. He's getting tired of people thinking the Freaks are a bunch of fools.

Flambeaux dialog

Flambeaux: Ugh! How hard is it to just finish off some heroes?! Why do we have to draw it out, I'm going to post ALL about this on the blog!
Flambeaux: Character?! Oooohh, I'm gonna blog ALL about killing you on your own blog! Hearts!

Debriefing

You've personally put an end to Flambeaux's reign of terror against your reputation in Paragon City and in the blogosphere. Those heroes you rescued will make sure that no one tries to come after you for the fake plans to blow up Paragon. Besides, where's the money in blowing up an entire city filled with precious items?
