A new repeatable contact...

I don't know if something like this has been suggested before, but here it is.

Repeatable contact: The Hamidon! (I know, I know, don't hit me)

He would be reached through the contact menu, and it's been proven that you can speak with the Hamidon (One of his missions has you talking to him through one of his mitos)

In all seriousness, even with all his insanity and evil, he has a goal that heroes can get behind on some level, protecting the earth. I think it'd be nice if heroes could work with a villain, someone completely evil, for what THEY deem is the greater good. Hamidon would lower devouring earth attacks as long as you assisted him.

Hero missions would be you destroying crey industries that are polluting, and other things like that. Obviously bad people who are causing problems for the earth, and for humanity.

Villain missions would be more attacking auto factories, hair-spray companies, that kind of thing, reveling in the destruction in return for a reward from the Hamidon.

(You could just make these a choice as opposed to hero and villain)

Rewards could include merits, of course. I was also thinking a badge that, when activated, worked like an ambrosia and an essence of the earth, or gave you a recipe to the make them.

So, thoughts? Comments? Concerns? Feel free to be honest with me, yer not gonna hurt my feelings if you don't like the idea.

Edit: I completely spaced on WHY he would bother with you. You would have him added after a defeat in a Hami raided, or if that's not feasible, when you got the "Heart of the Hamidon" badge, or equivalent", with him saying he respected your power.

No, some of the earlier lore about him was that Hamidon was specifically attacking things that were "bad for the environment".

He may well want to kill everyone, but after a Hamidon raid, I liked the idea that the situation in praetoria would mirror the one in primal, with the heroes having the upper hand, and while we can't kill him, Hamidon realizing what we can do decides to have him start "Dealing"
