"Friend or Foe" is the first iStory volume.

First mentioned: November 8, 2008
link

The first iStory volume was called "Friend or Foe" and was released during the first half of Season Three of Heroes.

Heroes Evolutions

Friend or Foe Characters
Anna
A teenager struggling to control her own horrific ability.

Marie Dunn
The young director of Primatech Executive Service (PES)'s Operations Division, who has made her reputation through a record of brilliant, ruthless efficiency in the field.

Carla Klaus
The head of Pinehearst's Risk Analysis & Response Unit (RARU), which is first on the scene when things go wrong. Her legendary temper is matched only by her ingenuity and determination.

Tim Pope
The new director of PES's Command Division. He has promised to replace any remaining weak links and restore PES to its former glory.

Ricardo Silva
An escaped Primatech prisoner with a beef against the Kill Squad. He has the ability to amp up another person's most primal aggressive instincts.

Aaron Taylor
The head of Pinehearst's Experimental Applications & Assessment Division (EAAD) oversees a vast network of shadowy research and development initiatives.

Priscilla Van Cleef
Pinehearst's kindly matron. She is the chair of Pinehearst's Strategic Human Initiatives Committee (SHIC) with a sphere of influence that extends far beyond the Pinehearst Research Group.

Jeremy Woo
The hard-driving, obsessive director of PES's Intelligence Division. He is feared and respected by his agents and contractors and even his superiors.

In this iStory volume, each user is able to begin a mission contract with either Pinehearst Research Group or Primatech Executive Services. Each week of story contains two chapters, a single chapter for both the Pinehearst and Primatech sides. Participants of this volume can play one side or the other or both. The missions are entirely text based with a button to choose an action at the bottom of each scene. Occasionally, related video segments to watch off the NBC site are included as part of the story. Interactive applications to reveal clues are also sometimes employed. If a person chooses the wrong action and dies or gets captured, that person is returned to the beginning of the story and can begin again. Although no registration is required to participate, an e-mail was sent out to current Evolutions players on October 31, 2008, informing them of the upcoming game:

Subject: New Chapter in Heroes Evolutions

December 8, 2008 Subject: Agents Named "Eric"

Hello, thank you for contacting the Primatech Executive Services Records Division. I'm afraid that your authorization level as a contractor only permits me to answer your questions with the following information:

No, there were no active Primatech Paper representatives named "Eric" in the area and during the time that you described.

Any additional requests will need to be made using Form 166-OE and submitted through your designated PES contract supervisor for authorization.

Thanks again and have a great day.

Ann

Notes

  • The first chapters of iStory "Friend or Foe" were released on Saturday, November 8, 2008.
  • In "Friend or Foe", there are two separate and sequential storylines for two different players: one storyline, Operation Bad Blood, is for a player that takes a contract with Pinehearst Research Group, and the other storyline, Operation Splinter, is for a player that takes a contract with Primatech Executive Services.
  • With the email sent out December 8, 2008, the sender was no longer wireless@samantha48616e61. The emails then came from donotreply.list.contractor@primatechpaper.com though changed December 18, 2008, to be coming from Pinehearst Research.
  • Operation Splinter shares the same final sixth chapter as Operation Bad Blood since the Pinehearst and Primatech contractors are working together. The last chapter is numbered as 106 (in the 100's like the other Operation Splinter chapters), but the player plays only as the Pinehearst contracted player.
