Rust, Brite Raider, and Peabody are the brainwashed characters you'll need to talk to for this quest. Starting dialogue with them will snap them out of their stupor.

The next set of weekly Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 quests are here, and Doom is causing a ruckus across the world by brainwashing characters - and it's your job to go and snap them out of it.

How to wake up brainwashed characters

You just need to initiate dialogue with a brainwashed character and cycle through all the lines to wake them up from being brainwashed. Rust, Brite Raider, and Peabody are the three in need of your help.

They'll say something positive about Doom at first, and then the next line will start with them realising they've been tricked.

You'll get a Shield Potion from each of the three characters you need to speak to, followed by 20,000 XP when you finish the task. 

How to find brainwashed characters

brainwashed characters locations in Fortnite

All of the brainwashed characters are located around the southern parts of the map, and I've marked each location on the map above.

Peabody can be found north-west of Redline Rig, at a small set of houses with a wooden walkway above them. He'll be on this walkway.

Brite Raider is on a small piece of land jutting out of the bottom of the map, between the south of Brutal Beachhead and Redline Rig. She'll be sat in a chair near a tree or on the balcony nearby.

Finally, Rust is at a house on the western road between Sandy Steppes and The Raft. He'll be walking around the edges of the building when you find him.
