Stronghold Prison is one of Champions Online's five man lairs. It is in these group dungeons that players will find challenge from their enemies and cooperation from their teammates.

Cryptic Community Reps Rekhan, Stormshade, DBT, and Daeke dive right into Stronghold Prison and share with fans what they found.

Stronghold Prison is the location where Menton, the infamous psionic, has been kept for many years. Somehow, he managed to escape his cell and take control of the guards and prisoners within the Prison. It was our job to get inside, rescue Captain Miller, and defeat Menton once and for all. To aid us were members of the SPARC team, a group of guards with mental shields to prevent Menton from controlling them. As we entered the prison, we were greeted by Mitchellson, one of the SPARC team. She explained to us that we’d need to make our way through the prison, closing cell doors and defeating prisoners that had gotten loose in order to reach Captain Miller, and then we’d be able to make our way to the deepest part of the Prison to find Menton.

Along the way, we’d run past these big ugly machines that seemed to be broken. Mitchellson explained that these were mental suppressors, and that normally they’d be up, which would prevent the psionics from using their powers against the guards. We had some spare parts with us to fix the machines, and doing so would break any nearby mind-controlled guards out of their stupors to join our side again. Unfortunately, we only had a few spare parts, and we figured it’d be best to save them until the end, because who knew what Menton had planned for us?
