Greetings & Salutations,

To the members of the United Sanction Society, I come to you with an urgent matter. I would like for turn your attention to our next task at hand..


Introducing The Shadow Shard ~ :http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/PresidentSK/Shadow%20Shard/Zulu.jpg

I would like for all of you to aid me in the rescue attempt of this man - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/PresidentSK/Shadow%20Shard/No-Show.jpg

His name is Dr. Theodore "Ted" Johnson a.k.a No-Show, the reason why he is so important to me, is that he was helping me in finding a cure to my skin 'condition'. In the photos shown in his broadcast, you will see that my original skin complexion has returned to me...

However, the solution was only temporary and the ingredients needed for the antidote lie within the realm of the Shadow Shard. So the both of us set out in order to capture more scales of from the Soldiers of Rularuu (http://paragonwiki.com/Image:Natterling1.jpg).

The zone is both a treacherous and beautiful place..

There are numerous Portal Corp Soldiers that use the grounds to conduct training units..

After I got my barrings, the 'good' doctor and myself began to go to work on what we came there for..

But, after quite sometime we both were separated from one another and I could no longer see Dr. No-Show in the distance behind me..

I searched high and low for him to no avail..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/PresidentSK/Shadow%20Shard/Chauv2.jpg

I decided to head back to the entrance organize a search party to find him..

Upon leaving the zone, I met with Dr. Quarterfield - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/PresidentSK/Shadow%20Shard/Quarterfield.jpg

He gave me a brief rundown of the location

Quarterfield: The Shadow Shard is an alternate dimension permanently linked to by Portal Corporation. It is called the Shadow Shard because among its inhabitants are many that appear as shadows of familiar enemies from the rest of the game.

The Shard is a world of islands and rocks floating in a strange-colored sky. Humans from the main CoX dimension have begun to explore the zone, and have set up bases of varying sizes across the shard.

The shard is made up of four different zones. Firebase Zulu, Cascade Archipelago, The Chantry, and The Storm Palace. All are hazard or trial zones. Minimum level to enter the first zone of the shard is level 40, and the deeper zones have progressively higher minima.

Enemies across the Shard include natives like the Shadow Shard Reflections, Soldiers of Rularuu, Storm Elementals, and visitors from the human dimension such as the Circle of Thorns, Crey and Nemesis.

Several Task Forces are organized out of the Shard, and missions may be run from several contacts in the zone, including one or two contacts who will give unlimited missions to high level heroes.

Several villain missions have the villains visit instanced maps of parts of the shard.

He also promised to help me find the doctor upon my return..

I told him that the USS would bring him back, where ever he is..

So let's get on the case, USS!
