Part I: Quality of Mercy
A Beacon Beckons
We've just received a distress call from a ship called the Damsel, and you're the closest thing to aid available right now. Get out there and save some lives. Prove to me you're not just another murderous liar with a god complex.
Mission and Space type: Courier, Deadspace.
Distance: 3 jumps.
Completion: Approach the Damsel, complete the mission and accept the next one remotely, go to the next Agent.
It seems Concord was faster to respond, but your backup was definitely appreciated. There were a handful of survivors picked up. They've been taken to various care facilities in the area – wherever vacancies could be found.
Tip: There are no Hostiles at the location, so you could use a Shuttle, but since the next mission Agent is in another location and involves combat, it is best to bring your ship to avoid going back for it.
Agent Inquiry
No one fired on the Damsel. Something must have happened inside the ship. We'd like you to track those survivors down. Concord is the first logical step. I've gotten in touch with Condord Agent Tevis Jak, who may have information for you. Go see if you can find a piece of this puzzle.
Objective: Report to Agent Tevis Jak in Tar.
Distance: 2 jumps.
Of Interest
A bunch of pirates have been scavenging the explosion site. Go and take them out for me. It shouldn't be too much trouble for a Capsuleer, and you might even find some extra information.
My sensors are picking up a strange bit of tech that just dropped in that can. Open the can, take the item, and bring it to me.
Mission and Space type: Encounter, Deadspace.
Distance: 1 jump.
Blitz: Kill the first spawn of Hostiles, loot the Datacore and bring it back to the agent.
Retrieving Red
Okay, I found your first guy, but it looks like he's shipped out already. He's down in the crew manifest as "Red". I'm giving you coordinates to intercept the convoy now. You should be able to catch them before they get too far.
Go quick, though: I'm worried that they don't have enough security to deal with the number of 'rats - sorry, pirates - where they're headed. They might need your help.
Objective: Kill the first spawn, loot the "Red" and bring it back to the agent.
Mission and Space type: Encounter, Deadspace.
Dead, is he? Figures. I'll keep the investigation open, but unless something changes there's little Concord can do.
Alerting Alitura
Just got a message from Sister Alitura. I sent her that weird datacore you found at the site. She says they weren't able to decipher it. Pity.
Still, she's very interested in consulting with you. So go do what she wishes. The Sisters are good people.
Objective: Report to Sister Alitura As requested.
Distance 3 jumps.
Jet-Canning a Janitor
We have another crew member located. The ship's janitor, Nebben Centrien, is stationed at a small outpost. We hope he'll have a lead on where some of the other personnel are recuperating.
In light of what happened to Red, I'd like you to bring him back here once you've found him - for his own safety, you understand.
Objective: Engage hostiles and retrieve the Janitor from his shuttle.
Mission and Space type: Encounter, Deadspace.
Faction: Serpentis
3x Frigate (Coreli Spy/ Agent)
4x Frigate (Coreli Scout/ Initiate)
Yeah, I know where Aubrei (the ship's cook) was headed, but I'll need a terminal to give you the coordinates. A terminal in a safe station. I'm not stupid.
Give me a moment to input Nebben's data. He's already providing us with good information.
Chivvying a Chef
We got the information from Nebben, but there's a problem.
It appears Aubrei Azil, the ship's cook, has shipped out as well. There's no way they would all get reassignments so soon after an incident like this. They're being shuffled through the system so we don't find them. And then there're the drones...
You need to find Aubrei. If we follow this long enough, we might discover who doesn't want the truth uncovered.
Objective: Find and retrieve Chef Aubrei Azil and bring him to Sister Alitura.
Mission and Space type: Encounter, Deadspace.
Faction: Rogue Drones
Hey, could you give me a hand, here? The damn things took out my propulsion; I'm dead in the water!
2x Rogue Drone Frigate (Infestor Alvi)
4x Rogue Drone Frigate (Infestor/ Splintor Alvi)
Rogue drones? Hmm. Well bring Azil back here and we'll see what we can do for hiura.
Delivering a Doctor
We've located the doctor from the wrecked ship. Unfortunately, we've located her by way of a ransom demand. We want this doctor alive, so we're going to pay it. I'll put the money in your hangar when you accept this mission.
I need you to take the ransom to the designated drop location. They're to drop off the doctor as soon as you drop off the money. Be prepared for a double-cross, just in case.
Objective: Deliver A Lot of Money ransom to the drop location to have Doctor Luija Elban released.
Mission and Space type: Encounter, Deadspace.
Faction: Serpentis
That worked out well. I wonder how much cash we can get if we kill you and keep the doctor?
Engage the enemy to force them to release the Hostage.
2- 3x Frigate (Coreli Agent)
2- 4x Frigate (Coreli Agent/ Spy)
Engineering a Rescue
We've gone a long way, but we've found the key survivor. Her name is Tahaki Karin. She was the engineer on the main ship from the ruined fleet, and she's signed on to the crew of the Heartbreak. She may be the only one who knows what really happened.
You know the drill by now: Get out there and get her before someone else does. I'm fairly certain there'll be someone there to shoot at you.
Objective: Rescue Engineer Tahaki Karin from her ship, The Heartbreak.
Mission and Space type: Encounter, Deadspace.
Faction: Rogue Drones
Get me out of here! This thing might explode any second now!
Looting the Engineer triggers an Hostile spawn.
4x Rogue Drone Frigate (Infester/ Splinter Alvi)
2- 4x Rogue Drone Frigate (Decimator Alvi)
Excellent. Karin is being transported to a more secure Sisters of EVE location for a full debriefing with our people. Don't worry, we'll keep Concord well informed of our progress.
Blitz: Loot the Engineer from the container, return to Sister Alitura.
Going Gallente
Remember the strange datacore you found? We've determined that it must have been made by rogue drones of some kind. I'm sending you to Gallente space, where I've contacted someone who can help you continue this investigation. Her name is Delphine Xarasier, an agent for CreoDron and the daughter of their chief researcher. We've tapped out our other leads for now, which leaves us in need of more information on drones, and she can certainly give you that.
Ojective: Report to Agent Delphine Xarasier in Harerget.
Distance: 8 jumps.
