| - You found this piece of cybernetic steel on a Freakshow gangster. Outfitted with many small gears and outlets, this metal is perfect for constructing implants.
- So you're here to learn about Hero 1? I remember him well. When the first Rikti attacks came, Hero 1 took me into the most devastated neighborhoods so that I could aid the wounded. I've never been more scared in my life. But Hero 1? He never flinched. He made it possible for me to save a lot of lives back then. You should go talk to Suzanne Bernhard now. I know she's eager to talk to you.
- You collected this pink goo from the Devouring Earth creatures you defeated. According to Professor Smythe, the goo is filled with adrenaline.
- Excellent, excellent. And in record time! I'll just pop these into the lab, and in no time at all, I'll have a brand new Smythe 032 ready for you. What's a Smythe 032? Well, I'm glad to see you're interested. It uses the hydraulic system of your heart to pump a tightly controlled adrenaline stream through your body. Quite safe, I assure you. The patent is pending even as we speak. I'll send it over the the City Representative when it's ready.
- You took this plasma cannon charger from a Rikti soldier you defeated. It hums with controlled energy.
- To tell you the truth, I've been carrying around a lot of guilt about not being able to accompany Omega Team on their last journey. See, Hero 1 wasn't just my teammate, he was also my best friend. He saved my life more than once, and when I lost my powers, he helped me find a new purpose in helping our community. He told me I could still be a hero, and in the end, I guess I kind of believe him.
If you really want a cape, I think you should go on down to the Hero 1 memorial. It's nothing fancy; he wouldn't have liked that. But before Hero 1 and Omega Team left this world, they put together a time capsule. They knew they wouldn't be coming back. It's just a few things: letters to their children, old high school photos, things to help people remember who they were. The city hasn't opened it yet because, well, people don't like to admit that Omega Team is never going to make it back here. The plan is to open it on the seventh anniversary of the heroes' sacrifice.
- Ah! So glad you could make it! My new method of enhancing your powers involves a lot of work, a few ingredients, and just a bit of cold fusion. It's really quite fascinating. If you will help me by providing the ingredients, I can do the rest.
First I'll need a piece of cybernetic steel. I'd be surprised if you couldn't find such a thing on the Freakshow. I'll also need a particular part from a Rikti plasma weapon. Lastly, there's a strange gelatinous goo that often coats the Devouring Earth creatures. It's heavily infused with adrenaline and enzymes, and it's proved critical to this project. I'm sure you can find all three groups in Crey's Folly.
- When I first met Hero 1, I was working as a beat cop, trying to keep a few city blocks clean and safe. No one helped me more than he. Hero 1 helped me crack down on the gangsters. There was no lead he couldn't follow. But he always made sure that the people he busted got fair treatment from the police, and the best counsel the city could supply. I respected that. You should talk to Justin Greene now. He used to be one of Hero 1's teammates; he may know more about him than anyone.
