Corvo infiltrates the Holger Square compound to eliminate High Overseer Campbell and rescue Captain Geoff Curnow. You can assassinate Campbell directly or neutralize him non-lethally by branding him with the Heretic's Brand in the interrogation room. Along the way, you can also rescue Martin from the stockade and search the compound for runes, bonecharms, and the secret Overseer vault.

Enemies

Overseer
Weak to Headshots; stealth takedowns

Wears metal masks that deflect frontal headshots; will hunt you down in groups.

Overseer with Music Box
Weak to Attacks from behind or at range while not playing

Plays an Oracular music box that disables Corvo's supernatural abilities in a radius around him.

Wolfhound
Weak to Ranged attacks; sleep darts

Has a high detection radius, can smell Corvo while hidden, and cannot be choked out non-lethally in close combat without sleep darts.

Tips

  • You can switch the poison glasses in Campbell's meeting room or smash both of them to force Campbell and Curnow down to the secret chamber, making an ambush or rescue much easier.
  • Upgrading Bend Time or Possession makes saving Captain Curnow significantly simpler, as Campbell will attempt to stab him in the back if neither drink is poisoned.
