Tristan Caine is a contact in Skyway City. He offers missions to level 5–15 characters, and the story arc The Vahzilok Pollutant Plot to level 10–15 heroes and vigilantes.
Progression[edit | edit source]
Henry Peter Wong or Samuel Pierce may introduce Tristan Caine to level 9–15 heroes and vigilantes. Detective Martins, Detective Rogers, Detective Sluggitt, Detective Westbrush, or other level 5–14 contacts in Steel Canyon or Skyway City may also introduce Tristan Caine to level 9–15 characters who do not have Jill Pastor or Kyle Peck as a contact.
Tristan Caine sells the eight standard small inspirations to characters who have him as a contact.
Characters can call him after reaching the relationship of colleague/crony at 10 CXP, then speaking to him.
He may introduce other level 5–14 contacts in Steel Canyon or Skyway City, or Mercedes Sheldon (Pocket D), to level 1–15 characters, after reaching the relationship of colleague/crony at 10 CXP.
He introduces Colleen Saramago, Jake Montoya, Maggie Greene, or Wyatt Anderson to level 15–19 heroes and vigilantes who have none of the four as a contact already, after reaching the relationship of confidant at 60 CXP. Alternatively, regardless of relationship, he introduces a higher level contact in the Jonathan St. John Smythe–Crimson chain to level 16–50 heroes and vigilantes who have no contacts higher than Tristan Caine in that chain.
Missions[edit | edit source]
Tristan Caine offers three missions to level 5–15 characters. He is also one of multiple contacts who offer the security chief missions for Kings Row, Perez Park, Steel Canyon, Boomtown, and Skyway City, but a character can complete each security chief mission only once.

He offers the long story arc The Vahzilok Pollutant Plot to level 10–15 heroes and vigilantes who do not already have five long story arcs or ten total story arcs active. Once characters have this story arc, they can complete it as heroes or vigilantes at any level. The arc's missions have a maximum level of 15, so characters above level 15 may need to adjust notoriety levels to get normal rewards. Completing the arc awards 35 reward merits.
The arc is also available as an Ouroboros flashback to heroes and vigilantes who are level 16–50 or who have already completed it. It is listed under guardian (level 15–19), number 0.05.
