Mission briefing

Our sources have caught wind of the situation, <Character>, though I'm glad you contacted us. We won't go public with this information yet, as that would be against our ethics as journalists. However, we will aid you in uncovering information on the missing child. Senator Ardanne has not always been kind to the media, but there's no reason to hold a grudge against him in a time like this. We've been keeping tabs on the Pator 6 for a while now. They're mostly low-level criminals, but their name has been popping up a lot recently, especially in relation to kidnapping cases. I haven't seen them do anything this high profile, though. Our first course of action is to see if we can plant a bug in a known Pator 6 hangout. Hodts Ergre, one of our more experienced investigative reporters, managed to acquire an access code to this place. We'd like you to place a covert recording device in their hideout. Hodts will open the gate, and you'll sneak in and plant the goods. This is a stealth operation, so it would probably be best if you fly something inconspicuous. I'm not saying you should go out there completely defenseless; as you know there are more pirates around here than just the Pator 6. You can take any ship you want, but I highly recommend a frigate-sized vessel. A battleship will definitely tip them off that you‘re up to no good.

This mission can spawn in a lowsec or highsec system, you might want to just bring a shuttle to the agent. Don't forget to put Covert Recording Device in your cargohold before undocking. At the warp-in point Hodts Ergre (friendly) will let you though the acceleration gate. No faction standing losses from ship kills.

1st room

Hodts Ergre is attacked and his 'Destabilizer Datacore' passkey is taken by some fleeing Pator 6 ships. The room has two acceleration gates, one of which is unlocked after rats are dead. Go through the unlocked gate.

Defenders

		WD	EWAR	L
	5 x Frigate Pator 6 Comrade
	1 x Acceleration Gate A
	1 x Acceleration Gate B

2nd room A

The second room contains an acceleration gate back to the first room. Grab the 'Destabilizer Datacore' passkey (0.1 m3) from the container that spawns next to one of the frigate wrecks and return to the first room through the acceleration gate.

After you return to the first room use the other acceleration gate that was locked. With the passkey it will let you into the third room. The passkey is consumed on use.

Defenders
