0 Inquiry You do not know me, however, I have been informed that you are in a position to help me. I wish to avoid divulging details of my predicament electronically, and wonder whether you can meet with me at your earliest convenience. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Follow up Further to our discussion last night, I find your terms agreeable. I will need a couple of days to raise the money. While I am doing so, I trust you will be looking into my story, and we shall be able to conclude our deal shortly. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Confirmed I am available to meet with you at Petrinska Kavarna in Prague at the time and date you prescribed. I will bring the funds as required. ± ± Thank you. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Good luck in Arulco Just wanted to say that my thoughts are with you. Best of luck. Remember to seek out Miguel and deliver my letter to him. I'm sure you'll find him invaluable. ± Enrico ± 0 Great news I was happy to hear Miguel Cordona is alive and you have made contact with him. Please tell him I have never forgotten what he did for me and that I would have returned sooner had I the money or the means to do so. ± ± Thank you for keeping me abreast of the operation. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 RE: Progress From what I understand, it seems you have established a foothold in my country. It is a start, a commendable one, considering who you are up against and how long she has had to fortify her position. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Keep up the Good Work Your message was most encouraging. I am finally beginning to accept that this cause is not hopeless. Do not misinterpret what I mean. I have always believed in you, otherwise I would not given you everything I owned. However, after all these years, it is hard to believe that Arulco may be freed. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 The Final Push I could not have received better news. I urge you to push forward and resist the temptation to celebrate prematurely. Until Deidranna is removed from power, no man can rest. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 RE: Setback I trust you will recover from this setback. The news, though distressing, I hope will only serve to strengthen your resolve. Deidranna is a formidable opponent, of that, I am well-aware. Do not despair. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Bad News Do not allow your confidence to waiver. The situation is temporary. It was only a matter of time before Deidranna's forces made the necessary adjustments. ± ± I have faith in you and your team. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Most Troubling I must say, it is hard to believe such a beast exists. However, if they do, I have no doubt that Deidranna is somehow behind them. I trust our arrangement includes their removal from the country as well. ± I wish you luck locating the source of these beasts. ± ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Concerned I understand that the operation is not an easy one. Your lack of progress, however, causes me grave concern. I hope the situation is only temporary, and your team will be taking the offensive shortly. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Getting Worried You must understand that the needs of my people are urgent. Their suffering immeasurable. For every day that passes under her rule more innocent lives are lost. I beg you to consider a more aggressive course of action. ± Thanking you in advance, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 EXTREMELY IMPORTANT I am growing impatient. Had I known you were this cautious I would have hired someone else. Your lack of initiative is unacceptable. I regret that my poor judgment has once again caused my people to suffer. ± A terribly disappointed, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Organizing your team I have learned that you have begun training the people of Arulco in fighting back the army. ± This is a very important step. To help you organize your (hopefully expanding) forces, I've set up a small website. There you can look through your militia's records. I hope this will be useful to you. ± Yours Truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Your first steps in handling delicate information It has come to my attention that you have obtained information that might help you to strike against my estranged wife in indirect fashion. I hope you will continue to do so. ± There are several ways for you to profit from this development. In order to better identify important targets, you might find the services of RIS (they made your initial Recon Report) worthwhile. ± I have also contacted a group willing to... trade... any information you provide them for classified equipment. You can find an associate of theirs in San Mona. Be careful though, the black market is none to be trifled with. ± Be careful, my friend. ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 1 We Know What You're Thinking ² ³ *** KNOW YOUR CHARACTER *** ³ ³ Can You Be Your Own Worst Enemy? ³ ³ How Can You Best Use Your Talents? ³ ² ³ FIND OUT WHO YOU REALLY ARE AT ... ³ ² ³ I.M.P. ³ ³ Institute for Mercenary Profiling ³ ³ http://www.I.M.P.com ³ At IMP, we know the mercenary trade.

And you're to bring an extra 25 per cent to cover my aggravation. ± If you don't, my men will track you down and kill you as though you were partridge. Just so we're clear; I had no trouble finding you now, and they'll have no trouble finding you later. ± Waiting for your prompt visit, ± ± Kingpin ± 48 Job Opportunity My associates have informed me that you are beginning to make quite an impression as of lately. Perhaps we can be of mutual assistance. ± I am embarrassed to say that I have recently been the victim of a theft. Something quite valuable to me has been stolen. I am - for the moment - not sure who pulled the strings behind this one, but I soon will be. As you can imagine, I cannot let this stand. ± To get to the point: two siblings - Angel and Maria DaSilva - are trying to leave the country. They are likely hiding out in some farm in northern Arulco. I want them dead. You have one week. ± I am offering a significant reward to whoever cleans up this problem for me. As we do not yet have an exclusive business relation, I also made this offer to other interest groups. Let me know if you are interested. ± Regards, ± ± Kingpin ± 48 Well done I am impressed. You carried out the job as I wanted. I've released the promised funds to you. ± This could be the beginning of a mutually beneficial cooperation. ± Regards, ± ± Kingpin ± 48 Failure It seems my initial assessment of your abilities was wrong. You had ample time to give me what I wanted, yet you failed. ± Thankfully, someone more capable than you finished the job. ± Disappointed, ± ± Kingpin ± 48 Failure It seems my initial assessment of your abilities was wrong. You had ample time to give me what I wanted, yet you failed. ± My contacts inform me that other parties on the same job ran into some... obstacles. I hope for your sake you had nothing to do with it. ± Disappointed, ± ± Kingpin. ± 49 Well Hello There It's me. John Kulba from Cleveland, Ohio. Just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for everything you've done. ± ± Can't tell you how happy I am to be back in the United States of America. A country with enough sense to never even have had a woman run for President. ± I sent those guns I promised you off the other day. Sent them Express courier, so they should be in Drassen by now. Be careful with them. I made some modifications to those puppies - give ya a real bang for the buck. You'll want to make sure both your feet are firmly planted. ± Anyway, you find yourself anywhere near the Gateway to the Great Lakes, you pop on in for a visit. I'll show you around. ± ± Thanks again, ± John Kulba ± 49 Well, It's embarrassing It's me. John Kulba from Cleveland, Ohio. Thanks for giving me chance to fulfill my dream. Unfortunately, there's a small problem. ± ± I was just flying to Arulco to help you out, when I fell asleep on the plane, and missed the connecting flight. ± Now I'm stuck in Tracona. I'll try to get to you as soon as possible, but it might take some time. I barely even managed to send this message, there's like a single laptop device with working network transmitter in an entire country. ± ± See ya soon, ± John Kulba ± 49 Almost there It's me. John Kulba from Cleveland, Ohio. Looks like we've got another delay. ± ± I hired a helicopter pilot to fly me over the border to Arulco. But that punk crash-landed us in the middle of a goddamn nowhere! Never should've trust a damn hippie. ± Good thing I didn't break my computer device during crash, so I can send you this message. Gotta figure out another mean of transportation. ± ± See ya soon, ± John Kulba ± 49 So close It's me. John Kulba from Cleveland, Ohio. ± ± OK, so this time I hired a guide to get me to Arulco on foot. Next thing I know, we're surrounded by a pack of overgrown kitties, and that punk just makes a run for it, leaving me behind. Me, an American citizen, left as a cat treat! ± Had to spend half a day on a tree before they were gone. I think this time I'll just get back to city and wait for the next direct flight. No need to worry. By the way, Arulco is spelled "Arulco" in Traconian too, right? ± ± See ya soon, ± John Kulba ± 50 A.I.M. - Notification of Death As a valued client of A.I.M., an organization concerned with your ability to plan your future combat needs, we must inform you of an unexpected departure from our personnel. ± It is with regret that we announce $MERCNAME$ died in action, bravely, while serving on assignment in the Philippines. ± We hope this news poses no unnecessary hardships for you, and wish to remind you of A.I.M.'s vast and diverse selection of mercenaries. ± We trust we will continue to meet your needs and we look forward to doing business with you. ± ± Hans Yorgan ± Director of Personnel ± 50 Refund Applied to Account This will confirm the transfer of $AMOUN$ to your account, representing a full refund of medical deposit for $MERCNAME$. ± Hans Yorgan ± Director of A.I.M.

Personnel ± 51 An exciting offer We at Kerberus Inc. offer a wide range of security personnel training and employ a significant number of trained security professionals. It has come to our attention that, in light of recent events, you might be needing to considerably expand your law enforcement forces. ± Should that be the case, we would gladly be of service to you. Feel free to visit our website at http://www.kerberus.com for more information. ± ± Regards, ± Stan Duke, Chairman ± 52 Thank you (again) Thank you, oh thank you again, my friend! We don't know how he learned, but Kingpin must have sent bounty hunters after us. They almost had us, but then disappeared. ± Perhaps you kept them occupied, perhaps it was sheer luck (I believe the former). We've finally left the country and are now in a safer place. ± May you be successful in your struggle. ± Angel & Maria DaSilva ± 0 Help!!! I am sorry, but once again I must beg for your services. Arulco has come under a new threat. Yesterday, Tixa was destroyed by a missile attack. It was most fortunate that the prison is not being used, and only a few people were injured. ± Hours later, I received a call from the Ricci Mining and Exploration Corporation. They are the company that depleted Arulco's mines for the benefit of Deidranna. They are a company famous for depleting the resources of most of the countries in this part of the world. ± They are also known for corruption, manipulating local politics, and hiring mercenaries to protect their operations. This time, it seems, they have set up a base in Tracona, the country directly north of Arulco. It would be easy for them to do. Tracona is run by its military. ± I have a contact in the country who has confirmed that a missile facility was built. Ricci Mining wants immediate access to Arulco's mines or they will begin to destroy other towns. They promise it will rain missiles unless they are allowed back into my country. ± I have no army, and my people are tired and weary of war. I do not want a conflict with Tracona, but the missiles facility must be destroyed. This threat against my country must be removed, and I can think of no better person for the job than you. ± I have made arrangements to transport a team of up to six mercenaries into the country by helicopter. An amount, which I believe should cover your fees, has been deposited in the same bank account as usual. I will stay in contact. ± Best of luck, my friend. ± ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Inquiry I have not heard from the pilot, Capt. Jerry Melo. I hope everything is all right. I expected him to be back by now, but still no word. Please advise. ± ± Enrico Chivaldori 0 Still No Word I have not heard from you since you left Arulco and the pilot has not yet returned. Please advise. Have you landed in Tracona? The fate of my country is in your hands. I must know of your progress. There are some who believe you have fled with our money. ± I have assured them that this is not the case, yet I am still very troubled by this lack of news. ± ± I hope everything is all right. ± Enrico Chivaldori 0 I have heard the Good News. Word has come from Omerta that you are in Tracona and have met Manuel. He is a good man. He has devoted his life, even abandoning his family, for the people of Arulco. Yet, I am still concerned. Why you have not contacted me since your arrival. Are you facing more resistance than anticipated? ± I have also learned that Manuel is aiding you with your mission. I do not know how much help he will be, however his loyalty is without question and his determination has made him a hero to our country. He is a man you can place your faith in. ± I will end this letter by saying that I am happy that you are indeed in Tracona, and once again on your way to liberating my people from those that wish us harm. ± ± Good Luck. ± Enrico Chivaldori 0 Concerned. It is true that I do not know when an attack will be launched on my country, yet I worry with each hour that passes that we are getting closer to total destruction. I beg you to end this threat quickly. ± ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 Urgent The Ricci Company is becoming more threatening. They know you are in the country, and blame Arulco for your visit. You must move quicker. I fear they will launch the missiles soon to teach us, and other neighboring countries, a terrible lesson. ± I know it is not easy, but you must find a way to bring this matter to an end. ± ± I beg of you, ± Enrico Chivaldori 0 Now I Understand I received your mail. I am sorry for the problems the pilot caused you. I realize no communication to the outside must have made things difficult. He was the only pilot I could find quickly. He was not from Arulco. He was not cheap, either. And, he still has not been seen by anyone. ± I trust this letter finds you safe and in control of your fate. ± ± Yours truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori 0 Now I Understand I received your mail. I am sorry for the problems the pilot caused you. I realize no communication to the outside must have made things difficult. He was the only pilot I could find quickly. He was not from Arulco. He was not cheap, either. And, he still has not been seen by anyone. ± I wish to compensate you for the extra difficulties you have faced because of his incompetence. I have made another deposit in your account. I hope it is sufficient. At least your team suffered no casualties in the crash. ± I trust this letter finds you safe and in control of your fate. ± ± Yours truly, ± Enrico Chivaldori 0 Pilot Found I do not know how this will make you feel, but a pair of eyeglasses similar to the ones the pilot wore were found in a bloodcat den. They were found next to a pile of bones and a small quantity of narcotics. ± ± Enrico Chivaldori ± 0 CONGRATULATIONS Once again, the country of Arulco, my country, owes its survival to you. You have proven time and again that your experience and commitment can make a difference to those unable to defend themselves.
