Mission Rankings

PARADIGM ranks missions on a D to S system to signify the urgency and scale of the mission. The descriptions of the rankings are as follows.

D Rank Missions: Missions of a standard cleanup/containment nature. The danger is localized, the threat is of a relatively small scale, and the mission can be handled by roughly any agent worth their salt, albeit some might need help.
Payment: 1,000 dollars. (100,000 ¥)

C Rank Missions: Missions which are of a more serious threat level, actually requiring a bit more than standard action, which can have farther reaching consequences, such as affecting an entire city or area. The dangers involved in this type of mission can vary by the number or the nature of the threat, and are to be taken seriously by all but the strongest of agents.
Payment: 5,000 dollars. (500,000 ¥)

B Rank Missions: More serious missions, the kind which can have far-reaching consequences. Often a precursor to something larger and PARADIGM is taking preventative measures, or something of a small-scale disaster. Powerful single targets or organized groups qualify as B Rank missions, and agents are advised to come prepared for the worst.
Payment: 10,000 dollars. (1,000,000 ¥)

A Rank Missions: Missions of this rank are of a deadly serious nature. An entire country or region is at risk, the danger is widespread or immediate, and things have to be handled decisively and with high risk. Incredibly powerful single opponents with dangerously organized groups or armies might be involved, or actual natural disasters on a country-wide scale. All agents are ordered to proceed with caution, and to end this ASAP.
Payment: 25,000 dollars. (2,500,000 ¥)

S Rank Missions: Missions for the strongest and most qualified of agents. S Rank missions are of a planetary scale, and the threats are numerous, widespread and incredibly dangerous both on a personal and organizational scale. Several high-ranking agents are required for these kinds of missions, and the urgency is directly proportionate to how widespread the danger is. These might be time and resource consuming missions, and all agents are ordered to be ready to be involved for an extended amount of time.
Payment: 50,000 dollars. (5,000,000 ¥)

SS and SSS Rank Missions: Missions of an S rank which are on a scale yet unseen. Possibly galactic or universal scale. Expect the apocalypse if a mission of this rank is ever attempted, and all agents are to participate. Note: Any mission which gains the SS rank means it was an S Rank that was not accomplished, so the dangers are doubled or tripled, at least, and all agents are to take up arms and participate.
Payment: 100,000 to 500,000 dollars. (10,000,000 to 50,000,000 ¥)

Once making it one of the final rooms of the aqueduct they had found a Scylla, who upon closer inspection was actually Helen Aulin, Cassandra's mother.

She cried for help and release from this form, but before the shock of what happened here washed away a new person approached, dragging along Cassandra's now dead father as well as David's who was oddly floating after her. Any attempts of attack on her were met with Samuel flung into the damage. Being told to release the pair,Astrid watched in amusement as Samuel struggled, trying to shoot Astrid, but with a small chant the gun was turned back on himself, where he placed it against his head and pulled the trigger. Not only had this enraged David into attacking her but also Helen was sent into a blind rage, but when there attacks met Astrid she simply vanished, it was later found out she was in possession of a Stop watch.

The Fight with the former Aulin indued, and ended with her monstrous form for the most part destroyed. David, slumping next to his fathers body, had begun to mourn.

After some discussion with her, they found out that is under the servitude of a demon known as The Forgotten One, and that she was promised to that her mind could be fixed if she ran about and did tasks for it.

Distracted by Prae's conversation, Astrid was almost apprehended, her watch had be destroyed in one fell swoop by The Major and David, and she had been knocked to the floor, losing grip of the Ice Brand, at which point she pulled out a strange Library Card and then vanished from sight...Once they returned to Cassandra they informed her of the news, David and Raph offered her temporary shelter at the Inn.

Zero was visibly upset, as was his entourage, about this, and required the agents to bring back his Sword before the other Zero retrieved it, the Knightmare Frame Shinkirou.

The Agents traveled to the United States of Japan alongside one of Asgard's Commanding Officers, Char Aznable, as they needed a Sleipnir to travel with the machine. Once there, they drove through the mostly destroyed Tokyo and witnessed an assembly led by the new Shinsengumi, ranting against the Empress. Agent Hokage hid among his countrymen to discover what this was about while agents Saotome and Aku noticed a blonde man and a girl, both contrasting with their Japanese compatriots. Trying to investigate got them noticed, however, and they drove away to the island where the Sword was supposedly located, Kamine Island.

Renting a boat, agent Moreno noticed that they were being followed, while Kamen gave updates of what was going on in Tokyo. The group made their way into the island, and once there, found a cave with a sealed door where the machine was most likely hidden. After cracking a hole in the door, a man calling himself Zero made his appearance, offering them an escape without harm if they would simply let him pass. Agents refused, and Zero pointed a finger at them like a gun... and then they got shot. From out of nowhere, troops appeared, and started shooting the agents. Aku and Jaden Beleren managed to take them down, but then from outside a voice rang out, and the dead rose.

Agent Ishigami countered the risen enemies with his own spiritual attacks, which dealt with them more definitely. Meanwhile, Zero used what is assumed to be an illusory power to counter most attacks on his person and redirect them.

Not wanting to listen to reason, the group had no choice but to try to detain her. Trying to simply overpower her, Letty used BIO on the girl's soul gem, corrupting and effectively killing her on accident. Stunned by the result of his attack, Letty froze, overcome with guilt. Everyone else carried on to try to reach the girl causing the disturbances in time and space, Umeko. But... before they reached her, a monsterous witch formed in the air, Walpurgis Nacht, and it immediately went on the offensive, starting to destroy the city.

The senshi began praying in their crystal, the Ginzuishou, asking for assistance, as Kouhei, Nikolai, Luca and Saber went to attack Walpurgis Nacht. In a retaliatory attack, the witch blasted at the group with it's most powerful attack. Unfortunately for Aimi, she was caught in the full blast and lost her arm, going into shock and collapsing on the spot. When all seemed hopeless, Sailor Saturn appeared out of nowhere and healed Aimi's wound, but not restoring her arm. Shortly afterwards, Toki faded away. Was she really there? Did the Ginzuishou work? One may never know.

When it seemed the witch was all but undefeatable, able to take all the attacks thrown at her, Gilgamesh showed up out of nowhere and used Gate of Babylon to subdue the witch. Saber's appearance seems to have caught his attention and he threatened to kill her master in order to take ownership of her. Letty, in no condition to fight back, remained in active during this encounter. Saber remarked on Gilgamesh's honor, causing the man to leave in disdain.

Now that the witch was gone, everything in the area seemed to be returning to normal. Umeko, panicking, attempted to flee and even take her own life, but was talked into surrendering by Nikolai. Shortly afterwards, Homuro showed up and thanked everyone for putting a stop to the rogue mages, saying they can return home to treat their wounded. Off in the distance... a small white animal watched everything that transpired in utmost curiousity.

The agents accepted the mission and continued through the woods to the east, towards The Red Fort. Agent Izumi and Dark helped take out one of the sentry guards while Prae took out another with her freeze gun. The agents then continued inside the fort and tried to sneak past a room of drinking weasels, ferrets, and rats. They were almost successful until Dark's familiar, Wizu, became scared and alerted the vermin. After taking care of them and chasing them off with Agent Jaden's magic and Maggie's fog powers.. they proceeded towards a courtyard.

In the courtyard there stood a large rat wearing a Demonic Mail that Jean recognized, a ferret wearing a helmet that provided magic sight, and a weasel with strength-boosting bracers. Prae kept the weasel subdued, while Jaden and Mireya focused on the ferret. The other agents fought the rat and with their combined efforts they were able to destroy the items. Behind the fallen foes, there stood a treasure chest with two other magical items: A persona card, and a magic wand that seemed to be responding to Prae. The agents then returned to Redwall, explaining their victory and then returning home.

[show details]

She told them of the recent appearance of a castle that had not been there for over 1000 years, which agent Loki confirmed. The group set out to investigate what the castle was doing there, and found only one guard house there, the Anti-Soul Mysteries Lab, and as such they ventured inside.

Once inside, the agents were assault by zombies, and learned of alchemy and necromancy practiced in the lab. Attacked in a storage room by skeletons, agents had to fight their way through narrow spaces to dispose of the animated remains, and once past them, were confronted by a vampire. After wounding agent Belmont, the vampire was talked out of his assault by agent Farenheights, who was a previous acquaintance.

The vampire was also there to kill the master of the castle. Once they joined forces, the vampire took them to a painting, which came to life as the mythical Cerberus, forcing the agents to confront the monster. Once they managed to defeat it, the vampire and agent Farenheights said they would unseal the gate to the main castle, called the Pagoda of the Misty Moon, and he told Belmont to deal with the vampire master for him.

Once in the Pagoda, the agents dispatched guards, then were immediately attacked by Walter Bernhard, the vampire master of the Pagoda, and one of the oldest vampires in the world, slain over 1000 years ago by the Belmont clan. He and his succubus ally attacked the agents, leading into an all out battle between them. Bernhard did not act very wounded to any attack save Belmont's Vampire killer, and the Succubus managed to trick many agents with illusions, as well as splitting into three. Agent Morris figured out how to weaken the succubus, which allowed agents Isabelle and Loki to take her down. When agent Belmont used the Holy Cross, however, the vampire fled the scene and left his minion to die. Agents then left, leaving one unexplored door in the guard house.

[show details]

The two girls then briefed the problem to the agents in song and explained that the Neo-Remnant had access to a demon orb that was making them sing and exhausting them. The Neo-Remnant was also located outside of the city so the Guardians of the school could not use their powers to attack. Hazumi explained that with the power of song, they would be able to turn the tables and defeat the Neo-Remnant at his own game. Hime then took the agents with her Pink Bus to the city limits where an auditorium stood (She didn't even play her music this time). The agents rushed inside and right away came face to face with three masked goons and started a sing off. Agent Aimi Utada was given a pill from Hime that allowed her to be able to sing again and with Shiro, Kamen, and Prae Shinra's rapping/singing combos.. they goons were knocked out. The agents continued into the stage room and came face to face with the Neo-Remnant, Boy Poison.

At first, Agent Kaoru and Jach's attacks seemed to be working pretty well against Boy Poison (songs would open his chest to expose his demon stone and making him vulnerable), but then the villain used a backlash of his demon stone power to debilitate a few of the agents. Agent Ian then used a strong performance with his guitar to bring the agents morale and health back up. A grand combo finish was performed with all the agents along with musical accompaniment from Agent Kai on the drums and kunai shots from Suzume.. and Boy Poison was defeated. Agent Mireya rooted for them back at the Epoch.. and soon the agents returned back to the school and went home.

Telling them the rumours placed him in a city in the South, agents took a carriage and two bikes to ride there, where the road was fraught with marauders.

[show details]

Making it to South City, formerly known as Hong Kong, the agents encountered some of the Holy Nanto Army's troops, abusing their prisoners, and encountered two of the Nanto Shitennou, Wu Tang and Sinatra. Almost disabling Wu Tang until the latter saved him, and told them of Kenshiro's predicament, as a prisoner of the Holy Nanto Army, due to their hostages. The group decided to go save the hostages while agent Hokage offered to go keep an eye on what they were doing to Kenshiro.

Once they got to the hostages, agents began fighting one of the Shitennou, Nirvana, who was a master of Nanto Suichou Ken. Avoiding and fighting off attacks from many of them, he was finally defeated by agents Hibiki and Saotome in a three part high powered attack, while agents Ryosuke and Apple saved the hostages. Agents Uchiha and Kakita, meanwhile, defeated Nirvana's prison guards. After the encounter, however, a man took over Hokage's comm and said he would throw him to the Nanto Sei Ken practitioners. Which he did.

The group made it to the center of the city, seeing Hokage and Kenshiro bleeding and in bad sorts, with Ozzy and the man called Odio were watching the spectacle. A fight broke out, and after a few moments, agent Uchiha stunned and agent Aku released his guardian, the Broken Heart, and both defeated Nirvana and purified his soul through his fist, making him turn on Ozzy for his manipulations. Meanwhile, Kenshiro woke up, and asked if the hostages were clear. When agent Saotome Izumi acquiesed, Kenshiro freed himself and took on every single Nanto Sei Ken practitioner there, leaving the PARADIGM agents to fight the Shitennou.

Aku's dragon almost managed to eat Ozzy, the self-styled Holy Emperor, and Sinatra was impaled by agent Uchiha's sword, but both were saved, by unknown reasons. They were deafted, however, by Saotome Izumi's All Creation, while agents Kiske and Saotome Ryosuke defeated Wu Tang, leaving Odio fighting Kenshiro, Saotome Izumi, Hokage, Apple and Tyler. Due to Tyler's arrogance, Odio tortured him, bypassing all agents' defenses and protections until a lucky hit by Kenshiro and a triple technique by the Saotomes and Kenshiro cleared out the skies, revealing the sun, and chasing away Odio. After this, Kenshiro thanked the agents, before walking off, as more justice was needed in the world.

[show details]

It turns out that on Ruri's lands there is a summer resort with people being reported missing. Ruri believed it was something supernatural as this had happened before, however, her usual agent had been sent to another organization and she was told that PARADIGM could help her. Her butler, Winfield, gave the agents paperwork and everything they needed to get settled at the resort along with the coordinates to get there (it was faster to just take the Epoch). Once the agents arrived on the beach, Agent Belle went to check the wilderness part of the island and agent Seijou sent his servant Rider to also explore that region. Mireya and Aku checked out the resort itself as the rest of the agents stayed on the beach.

Eventually the agents on the beach were surprised by a strange green-haired man who called himself Doctor West. He explained that his beloved gynoid, Elsa, had gone missing. He provided them with a GPS to locate her though at the time it was not functional. He also ranted like a nutcase, asking for permission to use Leben, Mireya, and Tonic as bait (the other agents said no) and then Doctor West retreated to the resort just as Belle and Rider returned. Belle's body was affected by some sort of gas coming from the wilderness part of the island and all of the agents decided to regroup and explore that area with caution.

As the agents went through the wilderness they came upon a broken down looking temple with many magical glyphs that prevented scrying capabilities. Agents then pressed on inside of the temple and one of the seals triggered, letting lose a fish-man-like monster. The monster attacked Mireya, Belle, and Jaden but with combined efforts, the monster was killed. The remains of the monster then triggered strong pheromone-like effects on a few of the agents, like Jach, Mireya, Belle, and Tonic.. but they were able to get a hold of themselves and press on into the temple.

Deep inside of the temple the group witnessed monstrosities.. many drugged women were being taken advantage of by the Deep Ones (the fish-men) and a man was sitting on a throne at the top of an altar, witnessing the entire thing. The agents then engaged against the Deep Ones with a 'distraction' from Belle.. and were being careful not to spill the Deep Ones' blood. The man fled and warned the agents that he had gained enough power to be able to summon a Hydra. Agent Faustlin was able to locate and take Elsa away from the altar and Tonic was able to grab another one of the girls.. and just when the Hydra was about to be summoned, a combined effort from Jaden, Seijou, Nikolai and Ian cracked the glyph and prevented the monster from coming into their world.

Agents then returned back to the beach with the girls (Elsa helped knock them out).. and then the agents returned to Ruri and ultimately went back to the Inn to let the pheromones wear off.

• Synopsis: Called to Arkham Asylum by Commissioner James Gordon, the Agents appeared inside the entrance hall of an incredibly secure and well maintained Asylum for the Criminally Insane.

[show details]

Meeting the staff, the commissioner, and Batman and Robin, the agents were briefed on the situation. Poison Ivy, Mister Freeze and the Scarecrow were running a riot in the Asylum, and the presence of Exobyte suppression technology made the heroes dangerously understaffed. Following Batman's directions, he was accompanied by agent Hokage, and let the agents organized themselves while he looked into the breakout.

Agents moved into the East Wing to fight Mister Freeze, where harsh weather conditions made the fighting difficult, and Freeze's men, especially the giant called Cold Cut, made it hard for them to reach him before he shut down all power to the Asylum. Mr. Freeze himself was quite the challenge, with his climate controlled, strength enhancing suit and cold-generating weapons, as well as the presence of Freeze's combat robots, called Therminators. Agent Lucy re-activated the furnaces and generators in the machinery room while the other agents took on and disabled the Therminators and Freeze, who ran away by spraying the room with liquid nitrogen.

Making their way back to the main hall, agents were told that Batman and Hokage were going to meet them in the Atrium area, taken over by Poison Ivy, while they finished their investigation. Agents met up with the newcomer, agent Leben, and ventured into the west wing treatment area, rapidly encountering a mass hallucination of the Scarecrow, which was in fact one of his agents, attempting to infect them with the fear gas. The agents fought their way past Scarecrow's men, and met many patients in suicidal or catatonic states, due to the fear effects on them. Fighting their way past the inmates and occasional hired thugs, some agents began to experience more personal hallucinations and terrors, until they confronted the Scarecrow, who treated them like a therapy group. Due to agent Apple's immunity to the toxin, however, she was able to locate him amidst the gas, which let the agents defeat him. However, the Scarecrow managed to run away.

After an odd message from agent Hokage and lack of communication from Batman, the agents deduced that they might be under Ivy's thrall, as mind-control is one of her abilities, and were joined by agent Jackal, while agent Ishigami had to take a slight break to recompose himself and let the antidote work it's way in every agent's system, to counter the fear toxin. Aside from an encounter with an animated tree due to agent Kiske's distraction, the agents were able to sneak past into the Atrium, while agent Uchiha left her clone behind to attack the plants with fire. Poison Ivy attempted to kill the agents, but the attack on the plants broke her spirit, which let them subdue her, and bring her back out.

Following the last GPS tracking of Batman's suit, Robin told the agents where Batman and Hokage were most likely held, and fighting their way past crazed inmates and Mr. Freeze's strongest men, they made it to a room where both were being held. With agents Jackal and Kiske attacking Mr. Freeze and Scarecrow, agents Leben and Uchiha went to their allies, rescued them and injected them with the antidotes to both Ivy and Scarecrow's poisons. Upon being freed, they joined the fray, and with short time and through numbers, the agents and the Batman took down the fleeing Scarecrow and disarmed Mr. Freeze. It was then revealed that the one being the breakout was the director of the Asylum, Jeremiah Arkham.

Batman made an offer to the agents, preferring to grant them technology to assist them than paying money for doing the right thing, and let them onto the Tech Wing of the Watchtower, where they met with Nightwing and Batgirl, and were offered a specialized suit with the motif of Batman, which could be customized to their preferences. Agents then went back home, to deal with the after effects of the mission and rest.

[show details]

The group arrived on a cliff overlooking a valley with a farming village in it. General Iroh and a woman from the village, Qi Shan, were both there to welcome PARADIGM and to fill them in on what was going on. Element Benders had come into town, essentially taking it over. Anyone from the town who resisted were placed into makeshift cells behind the Saloon.

The agents made their way into the village, which seemed abandoned, save for one guy, named Kui, who was leaning against the entrance to the General Store. He told them to leave, or face the wrath of Tri-Force (the name the bandits gave themselves,) but the agents refused, so he called in for backup. Three men walked out for the General Store and joined him. To prove his point, Kui used his Earthbending to launch Shiro away, but Apple grabbed him in time. That was enough to start the fight. Shiro, Izumi, and Kai worked together to kick, punch, and water deluge Kui to the ground, while the others were easily taken out by the agents. Motonari had a little difficulty trying to down a particularly agile bandit, but the well timed arrival of Ryosuke helped put an end to the bandit. After the four were taken down, a desperate Kui tried to bargain with the agents, telling them where the Tri-Force leaders were. He remained bound with his colleagues. Kamuro left behind one of his Earth Golems to watch over them as they moved on.

The agents started walking through the village, and when they were in the center, with the Saloon just up ahead, several screams pierced the air. A lone figure walked onto the Saloon porch, and declared that if the agents came any closer, the hostages would be dead. After some quick thinking and deliberation, the agents split up their abilities, and saved the villagers from their captures. Apple used roots to subdue an unarmed fighter man. Shiro used his speed and agility to sneak into one of those homes to get the drop on a Waterbender threatening children. Motonari used his blades to cripple the arm of a Firebender. Kai rushed into a home whose bandit captor ended up sharing dinner with his hostages. And Kaleido Ruby ended up using her Kaleid Liner to shoot a knife wielding bandit, but not before taking a throwing knife to the leg.

Once all the hostages were rescued, the real showdown began. The man on the porch, another Earthbender, raised a large wall of earth between the heroes and the Saloon.. and once it dropped again, there were three men standing there. The Earthbender called himself Long Hueng. His new companions were Renko, a Firebender, and Manska, a Waterbender. However, before the showdown could begin, it turned out that Qi Shan had alerted more than the United Forces of the incident, as the Earth Kingdom's Army showed up to help take care of the bandits, and cart them off to prison. No one was injured, and the Agents got to go home unscathed.

• Synopsis: Agents found themselves in front of the prestigious Hellfire Club located in New York City. Agents were greeted at the door by security but then given clearance to meet with Sebastian Shaw, the proprietor.

[show details]

Shaw explained that a truck manufacturing facility in New York was apparently illegally producing Sentinels and may be linked to terrorist attacks against mutants. Shaw said that it would implicate mutants if he asked for help from the people who were available to him from New York and it would be cleaner if PARADIGM was involved instead. The agents also agreed to do extra reconnaissance to get proof that the facility was doing their illegal manufacturing. Shaw's secretary, Ava H. Doe, then arrived with information on the facility including a map (that didn't include the underground parts) as well as Epoch coordinates. Agents then left and used the Epoch to go to the facility.

Agents then were able to get past the guards and break into the facility. Agent Fakir was able to reprogram the cameras as well as tap into the guards radio frequency to make sure that their path was clear. Agent Daichi transformed into Dark and was able to open the locks to help everyone get inside. After a surprise from a guard, agents were able to successfully knock him out and then continue to the shipping area, where a hidden elevator lead the agents to where the sentinels were being produced. Agent Takeo scouted ahead and made sure things were clear. Leben hooked into one of the terminals to start gaining information on the company and disabling the security systems. Fakir and Dark went to the R&D area to see if they could get more implicating info. The other agents went into the production area to destroy the sentinels made. Agent Venus successfully rewired the assembly line so that they line would take apart the ready made sentinels.

While things seemed to be going smoothly, it seemed like one of the Sentinels was already activated and had its own programming. It attacked the agents in the production room. Agent Prae Shinra transformed into Kaleido Ruby and fought the sentinel along with Dominic Lalance. With a combined effort from all the agents, they were able to break off chunks of it's armor (including making it replace its eyes from Dark's feather attack).. and then the security systems were triggered by Fakir, completely annihilating the sentinel. The agents then regrouped and left the facility and dropped off the information to Shaw back at the club.

Shaw was very impressed with the thoroughness of PARADIGM and said he looked forward to working with them again in the future. The agents then returned back to the Inn.

[show details]

Akio explained to them that there were missing students and rumors of an old dormitory being haunted. Agent Tatsuya had been previously contacted and warned that in fact a Horror had taken residence inside of that dormitory. Once the agents were pointed into the right direction, they proceeded towards the haunted building. A few agents were able to spot someone with blonde hair running through the hallways on the second floor. Agent Loki, Samhain, and Tatsuya were also feeling a supernatural anomaly on the thirteenth floor of the dorm. As the group proceeded up the stairs they heard a scream and rushed upstairs in time to find the blonde haired girl being pinned to the floor by a delusional boy.

The boy was then separated from the girl and agent Maggie was able to help convince the boy to leave the dorm instead of exacting revenge on the blonde haired girl whom he was blaming for 'eating Kaori'. The blonde haired girl was chased into the shadows and emerged in her true horror form -- dealing painful blows to many of the agents and incapacitating agent Setsuna. With combined efforts from agent Haruka and agent Mori Motonari, the horrors' armor cracked badly and was eventually killed with a finishing move from Maggie's Tarot Champion and Tatsuya's Golden Fang Garo form. The horror's blood tainted many of the agents weapons but was mostly absorbed by agent Nikolai's weapon, Durandal.

Once the horror was dead, the agents proceeded towards the anomaly on the thirteenth floor and found a Yin Gate being opened by the presence of a Jewelry Box inside the girls' bathroom. Agent Loki and Agent Samhain were able to get a glimpse of what tempted the blonde haired girl into accepting the horrors presence and Tatsuya destroyed the Yin Gate. The Agents then returned to the observatory and then went home. Agent Tatsuya also took the agents to see his watchdog, Bayou, in order to purify their weapons from the Horror's blood.

They meet with Commission Reed who briefs the trio on the blob. It came from one of the subway stations, and although it is not obliterating anything outright, it does crush anything in its path. The group go to the blob's location, and discover, partially through Takeo Masaki's experiments, that it grows when it is met with any sort of mass, although it is difficult to slow down.

After a while of chasing it and conjecture, the group decide to entrap the blob in a giant hole or crater. However, by the time Shiro was able to locate a suitable locale, the blob was 4 stories tall, and the width of an entire street, sidewalks and all. After some back and forth between Takeo, Shiro, and Aaron Weber, Takeo decides to become a living guinea pig, and dives into the monster itself to see what he can learn about it. Before he is squished to death, he teleports out. That triggered something within the blob, and shortly thereafter, it exploded, leaving smelly, fleshy chunks in a four block radius of where it was. The chunks soon began to dissolve.

Where the blob blew up, Shiro found a medical bracelet, with the words "Subject 23SD" written on it. Takeo took the bracelet back to the Inn to study, and appraised Commissioner Reed of what was going on. Commissioner Reed will do some follow-up based on Takeo's recommendations and will follow through via communication if anything comes up.

The Epoch smelled like an anime convention for a few days afterward.

• Synopsis: A pair of boys from the 'burbs need help finding their lost pet platypus. However, they're not the only ones looking for him!

[show details]

PARADIGM agents landed in an idyllic suburban backyard only to find two young boys expecting them. After a brief rundown of the situation, the boys had to go shopping with their mother, and left the search for their pet platypus, Perry, in PARADIGM's paws. Upon investigating the back yard, Agent Shiro discovered an odd knot in a tree. When pressed, the knot opened up, revealing a chute. When the agents took the chute, they found themselves in an underground secret lair, whereupon they learned from a giant face in the monitor that Perry has another identity- Agent P.

After learning about Agent P's nemesis- Dr. Doofenshmirtz, the agents set out to his location, a high-rise building in downtown Danville. After Shiro and Riki buzzed him on the intercom, they were allowed in and made their way up to Dr. Doofenshmirtz's lair. Thinking they were a bunch of carpet cleaners, he let them in, and told them how he built inventions, but couldn't unleash them yet because his nemesis, Agent Perry the Platypus, hadn't arrived. So, he decided that, instead of waiting for Agent Perry he was going to bring the monotreme to him using an invention designed to teleport all platypii in the tri-state area to him. Any platypii who weren't Perry would then be hit with yet another invention which would turn them into dolls.

The plan backfired though, as the invention designed to summon Perry the Platypus brought every single platypus in the tri-state area.. except for Agent Perry! Frustrated, Dr. Doofenshmirtz pulled out his doll-inator and almost began shooting the platypii, when a NEW platypus burst through the wall. Dr. Doofenshmirtz was bewildered at first, but when the platypus put on a fedora, he recognized him to be Agent Perry! After yelling at Agent P for being late, he tried to run over to his first invention, a machine that would turn objects into spaghetti... but tripped, and fell as Tatsuya intercepted him using cat-like reflexes and stabbed the spaghetti-inator, forcing it to shut down.

During the battle, Dr. Doofenshmirtz's robot assistant, Norm, came out, offering muffins. Apple, Kouhei, and all other agents partook of the treats.

A battle between Agent Perry and Dr. Doofenshmirtz began, where Agent Perry was the obvious winner. Not wanting to be without options, Dr. Doofenshmirtz looked for his doll-inator, which fell during the initial surprise of Agent P's entrance. However, Agent Setsuna had picked it up since then, and with a look from Agent P, crushed the device in her hand. With the combined effort of Seijimi Tatsuya and Perry, the invention that summoned the monotremes was also destroyed, sending the platypii (again, except Agent P) back to their original locations. This caused a chain reaction, leading to the explosion of the spaghetti-inator, which caused spaghetti to start raining down in Doofenshmirtz's apartment. Agent P used that moment to take his exit and leave. PARADIGM agents followed suit.

Back at the suburban home where the agents first arrived, they ran into the entire family of the contact, and were pleased to announce that they had located the missing pet.

All Agents received a fedora for acting as representatives of the O.W.C.A.

Cassy called in the Agents to deal with a sudden problem in Wygol. It had been over run with Lycan! So after finding out that the villagers where already safe and secure in buildings, they ventured into the town where they would have short scraps with the beast. Not to long after they'd confront the 'Pack Alpha'. David Morris noted that the beast as acting strange, and suggested they quickly subdue the beast. during the fight they found out it was the sword controlling the monster, and quickly removed it from it's grasp. The Beast started to change and turned into a man, or at least what looked like a man, but was really a lycan.

Adrian, The Lycan explained what happened that he picked up some cursed sword and blacked out, not remembering what happened. In short he and a band of treasure hunters ventured into the vaults of 'The Castle' in search of some quick money, they got more then they bargained for. The Agents then decided to help out Adrian and locate his other friends that went into the ruins with him. after crawling though the corridors and hallways of the castle, they managed to find most of them, but the 2 other Lycans were missing. Adrian, from this point, started going about getting his unconscious friends out of the building while the agents ventured forth, to find a strange room with a very large seal in it, they also encounter 2 demons Slogra and Gaibon, which they deftly dealt with, though took a number of injuries themselves.

Cassandra informed the agents that this was infact a seal that leads to the Prison of Eternal Punishment, The place where The Forgotten One is held. She said she is going to research this seal to find out what exactly is going on.

Agents got a briefing on the location of a lab that supposedly belonged to Orochimaru. After getting coordinates and taking the Epoch there, they arrived in a desert, near a large hole in the ground. Moving into the underground lab, they found the remains of several bodies as well as tanks, which appeared large enough to house human-sized creatures. Agents started to examine these items when a sudden downpour of water came down onto them, attempting to trap and drown them in the bottom of the labs. Acting quickly, the agents made their way out of the labs, and out into a hallway, where they were greeted with a volley of wind attacks from an unknown source, with a woman's voice.

• Synopsis: PARADIGM agents were contacted to help deal with a development project that was being assaulted by Werewolves.

[show details]

The agents met Jack, who told them about the situation. A company was trying to build in the Black Forest, but they had been disturbing the local Werewolves. These creatures, who Jack was associated with the Wolf Pack back in World War II (making him quite old..), were expanded upon as being part of the Blood Tribe by agent Loki, a group of Werewolves which worked with Dracula, sharing his desire to remove humans from the planet. With this intel, the group set out into the forest, ready to try to negotiate with, or fight the Werewolves.

The group rapidly encountered some spirit wards, which were dispelled by agent Morris, after being identified as such by agent Farenheights. The agents then moved on, to a rather gruesome scene. Several men and security guards had been eviscerated and strung up as a warning, their organs used as decoration by the Blood Tribe. Agent Farenheights animated the corpses, and asked them where the Lycanthropes were. The 'man' responded they were most likely where the odd energy source they were investigating was. After putting them back to rest, the group moved on.

This is where they were surrounded by Werewolves, the animalistic, crazed kind, which were not listening to agents Loki or Farenheights. As the group prepared to fight, a man appeared, calling himself Gregor, a member of the Blood Tribe. He explained to them, due to agent Farenheights' relation to Dracula, that he was intending to remove the blight of humanity from the planet. When the rest of the group objected, he ordered the other Lycanthropes to destroy the agents. After a short but fierce battle, the group disposed of the werewolves, which was made easier by agents Belmont and Morris' silver weapons.

After tracking down Gregor to the source of the energy, and finding several women in captivity and with child, the agents readied to fight him, except he summoned a Chaos Crawler, a small manifestation of the Chaos which keeps Dracula coming back to life. The creature was causing ripples and horrors in reality by its mere existence, and causing several of the agents attacks against it to backfire somehow, as well as interfere with their perceptions of reality and the situation. A hard fight with the creature, however, left the agents triumphant, with only a few wounds, and no deaths. The group reported back to Jack and returned home.

Charles explained that he was the manager for the famous band Dethklok and they were signed up to do a charity gameshow to raise funds and awareness for childhood illiteracy. The problem was that the band was getting threats by a group who were calling themselves the Super League of Badguys aka SLoBs. The SLoBs were preparing to humiliate the band on live television, thereby ruining their popularity and sending the worlds economy in turmoil since the band is one of the leading economic forces in the planet. Charles main concern though was the fact that the band members were pretty bad with trivia... and definitely required help. PARADIGM was known for having the most gifted people so after pulling some strings he asked for them to be able to aid the band members on the show.

Agents were then given a chance to meet the band members and were stratified into different groups.. then everyone was taken to the television studio and put on stage. Nathan Explosion was teamed with Hikari Kouda and Prae Shinra, Toki Wartooth was teamed with Dominic Lalance and Isabelle, Skwisgaar Skwigelf was teamed with Faustlin Fontaine and Suzumura Riki, William Murderface was teamed with Jach Swiftblade and Ian, and Pickles was teamed with Saejima Tatsuya and Takeo Masaki. Miyabi was recruited to be one of the stage bunnies. After a battle of wits, PARADIGM was successfully able to help Dethklok answer their questions to the point where they won a game.. they were all awarded golden guitar trophies and then allowed to go back home.

[show details]

The group landed in a suburban down that was suffering from a massive heat wave. Comissioner Reed greeted them and gave them the basic information.

When the group caught up with it, they noticed it was giant sphere of energy, radiated red/orange heat, and a solid core no larger than the size of a brick. It was emitting large amount of heat, hot enough to melt the asphalt of the ground it was hovering over. Fakir and Shiro tried to ice shoot it, which didn't work. Then they crossed the streams with Izumi's help. Takeo came in, was informed of the situation, and tried to get close to the fire ball to find out what was going on, but results were inconclusive. He instead froze a kiddie pool and dropped it on top of the fireball, which trapped it, though it was covered in ice for a while. The fireball eventually came out, but it was spent, crashing to the ground shortly afterwards.

Jared and Motonari helped clean up afterwards.

The core of the fireball looks to be some sort of petrified heart. Takeo got permission from Commissioner Reed to take it back and research it.

[show details]

Persephone then guided the agents towards an elaborate painting in one of the back rooms.. Nikolai was able to identify it as one of Felicity's works.. and it appeared to be a painting of Silent Hill. Persephone then opened a portal/gateway to enter the painting and dispel whatever negative energy was inside of it. Once inside the painting, Agents were able to discern that they weren't alone.. Loki was catching the scents of others, Tatsuya and Riki's madougu were picking up supernatural readings. Eventually the agents stumbled onto the entrance of a place called Lakeview Amusement Park and proceeded inside where they found many Spider-Hosts wandering around. A few of the agents caught the attention of the Spider-Hosts and began a gruesome battle.. which ended with the agents escaping and making their way into a House of Mirrors.

In the House of Mirrors, the scenery began to bleed into the Otherside.. which seemed to be a dimension or a pathway to hell. There were buzz-like sounds of insects through the walls and many scary-looking creatures in cages around them. A few hands broke out through the mirrors and tried to grab Prae Shinra and Setsuna Mikagami. Nikolai and Loki helped slash the arms off of Prae.. and Jaden Beleren and Tatsuya tried to slash the arms off of Setsuna, the hands on Prae were completely lobbed off.. however the hands on Setsuna's didn't cut through with Tatsuya's blade.. and a loud scream echoed throughout the area. Setsuna was freed and then the agents came face to face with some of the old Silent Hill monsters, the Sugar Daddies. As they went outside, a huge trap made by Janos was sprung that caught many of the agents off guard.. and Setsuna was taken in the confusion by a speedy figure.

The agents pursued the trail after Setsuna and eventually came across Cutie and Gregor with an unconscious Setsuna. After facing off with the rest of Gregor's pack (which included Talbot).. Nikolai was put under a thrall by Gregor and attacked Raphael Belmont. Gregor was forced to retreat as the presence of a yin gate was unveiled. Horrors slipped out and quickly attacked everyone (including Gregor's pack). The agents were able to defeat the horrors and promptly everyone was ejected from the painting. Gregor and his troop were gone and everyone went back to the Inn to recuperate.

[show details]

The Agents were assisted by B.P.R.D. agent Josef and they ventured off into the subway tunnels that lead them to the Actual crypt of the Genma. When they arrived they heard the sound of gunshots and went to investigate finding the dead body of a Genma demon. After investigating the body they were encountered by 4 large demons who were easily defeated by the agents. After the fight they came to the suspicion that they were not alone here, this conclusion was solidified by a trip-wire trap laid in a hallway for the agents to fall into. The Agents avoided this trap and made it to the main area of the crypt where they evaded a horde of zombies before fighting a monstrous two-headed demon dog. After a very long and bloody fight they secured the head and left the crypt.

Once they made it outside they were surrounded by a large group of armed soldiers and their leader who asked for the head they just recently acquired. The Agents refused and even with a threat of blowing up the city they attacked the leader of the soldiers, who turned into a cloud of mist and avoided every attack sent his way. During the proceding gunfight, Agent Josef was taken captive and was forced to hand over the demon's head. The leader of the opposing army attempted to shoot Agent Josef but the bullet was intercepted by Prae Shinra which initiated another gunfight which resulted in several wounded agents and the loss of the demon's head they worked hard to obtain. Agent Nikolai reported the results of the mission to the B.P.R.D. and the loss of Agent Josef. Sadly, the mission was recorded as a failure, however the secured Genma tomb was enough to allow the agents to collect their reward for their hard work.

[show details]

The bad guy was inside a bank just near where the group had landed. Jach Swiftblade used his oculars to find the guy and gave a description that indicated his energy was biological. The group went into the bank. The bank was empty, but damaged pretty badly by blunt force. Leben used her psychometric abilities against one of the damaged areas, and immediately felt what the guy was feeling- which is a lot of confusion, fear, and panic. The group agreed that it would be best to actively pursue him, so they followed him downstairs.

Shiro mentioned a bug that eats brains, and freaked out Leben, especially since there were bugs in the stairwell.

When they descended the stairs and entered the large underground vault chambers, they found a man inside an energy construct, with a hammer formed from said construct, bashing up the place. Initial attempts to get his attention failed, but when Jach froze his hammer, the guy suddenly was focusing on him.. and the rest.. pointing guns at them! He calmed down suddenly though, and Jach started to try to talk to him. However, he suddenly went mad again and starting shooting randomly and ran off. After he calmed down, Jach and the others went to look for him, and found him standing still in the center of one room.. his energy now yellow. When Jach and Shiro went to speak with him, though, the guy snapped, forming a baseball bat and swinging it around. Daichi/Dark threw some magical feathers on the ground which were intended to contain the energy construct. Whether or not it was the feather... The energy did fade.. but as the last of it faded, the man began to choke. Despite the team's best efforts... the man died.

Shiro found a medical bracelet on the man. "Subject: 235452"
