Information: Council and Militia
-
So… we've been breathing new life into Jiyyd's administration, allowing as well for more player involvement in and around the day-to-day issues of Jiyyd.
The militia is just about done now, Council is as well getting more involvement again as new threats are starting to surface to the town, and will likely start to undergo changes in the nearby future. To keep in shape with this increased involvement, we've opened up a new forum for Militia/Council access. Players that are either on the militia or have a standing vote on the Council will be given access to this forum, so if you can't see it, PM me.
The forum is located under Narfell Organizations: Jiyyd Town Staff.
Of course, Jiyyd is not Peltarch. It's still a law-abiding, peaceful farming community, where a Council of speakers from the town each have right to speak and vote on town affairs. Most of these speakers, atleast the NPC's, are just common people like every one else, with their own views on how things should be. They're not corrupt senators trying to hoard the most wealth they can get, they want to keep their town like it is: Jiyyd.
This means as well that they listen to, or think on things that big politicians probably wouldn't wouldn't care about. First of all, they listen to the best source of information readily available: rumors. They hear other citizens talk behind a pot of ale, or in their shops, and they start milling their own thoughts.
In other words… this can be as much fun or as much trouble as anyone makes it. I'm expecting involvement from the PC's that have a voting right on the Council, but not only from them. In the end, where perhaps not all actually have the power to do something about it, it's a Commonwealth: everyone has the right to speak, as long as they are a citizen of the town.
And that's what the forums here are for.
