Introduction
Fulcrum story characters are always on the map, but they can only be clicked on when you’re formally on the Fulcrum Story level itself. When you see a figure when you’re playing a story case, make a note of their tick and location so you can come back laterAUTHOR’S NOTE: This is a WIP. I will circle back and give written out instructions to their locations after I find all of them.
For some general tips:
- Just as the main levels taught you, you can estimate where the target is heading from their last tick. If you see someone walking southwest, that’s the first place you should look
- Many of the people we’re looking for are moving around, changing their poses, and, rarely, changing their appearance. If you’re really struggling to find someone, it might be because they’re facing away from the camera or they’ve changed outfits
- Most of these stories are pop culture references and the source material is a hint as to what the figure does. For example, Johnny Weak, from the Information Era, is a John Wick reference, and John Wick is famously fond of dogs, so it follows that he’s following a dog around the map
- Many of the figures have an entourage following them. For example, Jasper in the Information Age is being chased by a security guard. Due to this, if you can’t find the main figure but you see the person following them, search the area around them first
- As you may have noticed, when you first head to a level for a story case, it’s very chaotic, as the various crimes are being played out, and becomes more simple as you solve them. Due to this, If you’re really struggling to find anyone, I would recommend playing some cases to simplify the map.
- A handful of characters cannot be found until you get the Parallax ability to see hidden scenes from assimilating Rage
