Brimstone's Office/Episode 3

*This page is an archive or all the lore elements present or updated in Brimstone's Office during Episode 3. For more information about the office itself, see its page*

Brimstone's Office is an area in the Range, that contains many important lore elements that are periodically updated every Patch. An archive of all these updates added during Episode 3 has been made here.

## Bulletin Board

The Office has a bulletin board, which is regularly updated with new content based on the current projects of the PROTOCOL and relevant events in the story. It was originally placed in the front corner of Brimstone's Office, but was later moved upstairs.

The Board in Patch 3.10The Board in Patch 3.12

### Patch 3.09

The Bulletin Board does not have anything on it as of now. It remains completely blank.

### Patch 3.10

A map of α-Earth has been added onto the board, upon which the locations of all in-game maps have been pinned. Each pin has a small image of it's respective map, along with a shortened version of their names. Fracture is the only map which doesn't have this, instead being represented through a sticky note with a rough and simplified diagram of the LRC scrawled on.

An 'α' symbol is present on the top-right corner of the map (affirming that it is a map of Alpha Earth), and the PROTOCOL's logo is present on the bottom-left.

### Patch 3.12

Not much has changed for most of the Board. A schematic of a teleportal has been attached over North America, along with a 'CAUTION' sign on a sticky note, in reference to Killjoy's attempts to build a functioning portal (see the Emails and Voicemails of the pervious patches for more information). The Fracture pin now has an actual image, instead of a sticky note.

## Voicemails

Brimstone's phone is an interactable present in the office, that plays voicemails sent by the Agents to Brimstone when interacted with. Like the Bulletin Board, the voicemails are periodically updated every patch.

### Patch 3.09 Voicemail

  **Killjoy**
Hallo, Brim! Uh, sorry about the power outage last night, it wont happen again... uh, probably. It's this Everett-Linde portal. It's going fine, I - I think it's going fine, but finding a viable energy source is proving... problematic. Standard electrical currents just won't work. But, you know what could help? More lab funding. *[Laughs]* Now, I know what you're thinking... *[Imitation of Brimstone's voice]* "Killjoy! Are you exploiting the urgent nature of this very fine mission to weasel MORE money out of the quarterly budget?!". The answer is *yes*. But seriously, this portal won't power itself. Thank you!

This Voicemail from Killjoy was our first hint that the VALORANT PROTOCOL was trying to establish a means of going to Ω-Earth. Previously, the power of traversing the Earths was available only to Ω-Earth, because of their greater technological advancement. In the voicemail, Killjoy says that she is working on building a teleportal that can achieve this (which ties into the Email on Brimstone's Laptop visible during this time, see below), but is running into problems finding a "viable energy source".

### Patch 3.10 Voicemail

  **Chamber**
Monsieur Brimstone! I must say again how wise it is that you have embraced our partnership. Trust me, I understand your reluctance - I am new, unknown - and it is unfortunate that we found each other in such unpleasant circumstances. But, we will get to know each-other. Look into me if you must, I am an open book. In the end, we want the same thing, non? And I'm in the unique position to deliver it. There is only benefit. You will not be disappointed.

This Voicemail from Chamber was added in Patch 3.10, the same patch in which he was officially added to the game. It serves as an introduction to Chamber as a character for the community. In the voicemail, Chamber thanks Brimstone for accepting their 'partnership', and goes on to talk about how both parties stand to benefit from it. This voicemail goes in tandem with the Email added in the same patch (see below), describing Chamber's classy and open façade while implying nature of someone with their own ulterior motives beneath.

### Patch 3.12 Voicemails

  **Chamber**
Bonjour, Brimstone! I have sent you my intelligence for *numero* [number] 19. The file is quite comprehensive... Kingdom keeps *far* too much data on it's employees. As you see, her abilities are uniquely suited to help with the... *Special Project*. She is a perfect fit, I think. Unfortunately, I cannot reach out to her directly, there is a past... *misunderstanding*... that may make her less receptive. But, as a fellow K-SEC veteran, I'm sure she'll meet with you! Appeal to her sense of service, she gets that from her family. This is exciting, non? Good progress!

  **Killjoy**
Brim, hey... it's me. Sorry, I... *[sighs]* I keep thinking about Everett-Linde. They were light years ahead of us with their LRC Program... it was sublime. The data on Radianite exposure, the biome acceleration... *[heavy breathing, sighs]* even in its failure, it can teach us so much. And yet, seeing the husk of the facility... it's the people... all those people... *[voice shaking]* Brim, they weren't even soldiers, they were *scientists!* They didn't have a - a chance to - *[audible crying]* Sorry. I - I have to go. Call me back, please.

The first Voicemail, sent by Chamber, is one of the many teasers for Neon. Chamber gives Brimstone a suggestion for a new recruit into the VALORANT PROTOCOL in the form of the young Filipina. Chamber implies that he got the information from Kingdom and goes on to provide some information on her: Her abilities can help Killjoy power the α-Ω Bridge, she has history with Chamber, she was a former K-SEC employee, and a sense of duty and service runs through her family. This also confirms the pre-existing theory that Brimstone is a K-SEC veteran.

The second Voicemail, sent by Killjoy, shows her in a heartbroken state, talking about the Everett-Linde disaster. She gets increasingly agitated as the recording goes on, until she finally breaks down into tears at the end, and the voicemail cuts. It is implied in this voicemail that all those present at the Everett-Linde facility when the Chambers shot down the LRC died - except, of course, Rúben Pontes and Oran McEneff, who we know miraculously survived and escaped to Omega Earth.

## Emails

As with Brimstone's phone, one can also interact with Brimstone's Laptop to reveal an Email sent to or from Brimstone by one of the Agents, which is also updated in each Patch.

### Patch 3.09 Email

This Email from Viper is a further hint that the VALORANT PROTOCOL is trying to establish a bridge between the two Earths, going in tandem with the Voicemail sent by Killjoy in the same patch.

This email goes further into the specifics of the bridge, describing how Killjoy is trying to reverse-engineer the portals present at Everett-Linde. While these long-range portals are *somewhat* similar in design to the short-range ones that are seen on both the Range and Bind, they are far more complex, and will take a lot more effort to create. As of now, Killjoy has hit a roadblock.

### Patch 3.10 Email

This email from Cypher, once more, goes in tandem with the Voicemail sent by Chamber in the same patch, this time with the goal of developing Chamber's character further.

This Email is sent after Brimstone assumedly asks Cypher to do a background check on Chamber. Amazingly, even Cypher was unable to find any incriminating evidence on the Frenchman, despite his legendary skill at uncovering secrets that people want hidden. However, Cypher does retain his suspicion of Chamber and his motives, and advises Brimstone against working with him.

This takes place after Chamber handed over the long-range Teleportal schematics over to the VP. Killjoy confirmed that the schematics were accurate, and would continue her work on the portal with their help.

### Patch 3.12 Email

This Email from Sage is in response to one sent to her by Brimstone (which remains unseen). It is assumed to be after Brim receives Chamber's file on Neon, and is considering her as the newest recruit to the VP.

Brimstone and Sage consider a specialized training program to help Radiants best utilize their power. Sage notes how Reyna, with her immense pride as a Radiant, would want to head this program. Sage dismisses this, as suggests herself as an alternative.
