Voice of the People



  • Chea supports the voice a little, mostly Marty as well.

    (occasionally she remarks it's efficient, it supports the city as well).

    3rd: Mike of Peltarch 12,1% (51 votes)

    EDIT: Voting percentage 85%



  • _City hall is busy as the officials begin to calculate the votes. The results are predicted to come out one voting district at a time, in the following order:

    Barony of Tillershill
    Civic District
    Commerce District
    Docks District
    None of the above ((Reserving this for PC votes))

    Meanwhile, many workers around the city are on a sickleave. It could be hangover from Mike's beverages, though._



  • _People line up to drink the free beer. As the hours pass on, mild chaos brews in the city. There are fights brewing up here and there, with guards hard-pressed to manage them all.

    Some people are turned down at the voting booths, as they are too drunk to walk, let alone vote. Others simply don't care to go there, instead soaking up the free ale like a sponge.

    Whoever comes out as a winner here, it's certain that the voting percentage will be low._



  • _Immediately before the voting occurs, shouts can be heard in the streets.

    "MIKE'S GIVIN' OUT FREE ALE."

    "FREE ALE?"

    At fifteen locations spread throughout Peltarch, with the Docks receiving a larger proportion than the other districts, distribution stands are set up, stocked to the brim with ale - and not swill, but the strong, quality stuff - enough for every man and woman to go to the polls plastered out of their minds, if they remember to go. And if they remember to go, it is likely they'll remember who to thank for their condition, for the Hoarsgate Seafarers distributing the ale (who are sober and consequently well-compensated) inform every citizen that, "The drink's on the house, courtesy of Mike!"

    "That's Mike, delivering on promises before he's even won, haha!"

    Another team of five Seafarers roves the city, a mobile distribution center of strong ale and praise for Mike of Peltarch._

  • Council of Moradin

    Gnarl hears the herald, while resting from all his mining and blacksmithing.

    He decides that he might as well vote for himself, seeing as how if he doesn't, why should anyone else. So, he signs his ballot voting for himself. Still wondering what is to become of all this.

    Haela be praised



  • The herald of Peltarch announces that the voting is finally starting.

    ((If you have a peltarchian PC, send me a PM on who you wish to vote for with them. Maximum of 2 PCs from a single player can partake in the vote.

    The PC votes will constitute 30% of the total votes given, rest are NPC votes based on the campaigns.

    You will have until the end of this week to send me your votes.))



  • ((okay, since I'm back now.. the campaigning time ends at the end of this week/month. Next week I will ask for people to send me their votes, as well as calculate the NPC votes.))



  • ((I'm extending the campaigning time till the end of the week (Sun 27th.) After that, I'll post the instructions for voting.))



  • The commoners whisper around confusedly - first day of the campaigning has passed, yet not a single public appearance has been held. For those commoners that still remember the senatorial elections, it comes as a huge surprise.



  • The application time is done, and here are the people campaigning for the position:

    Gnarl Horst, First Knight of the Forsworn
    Mike of Peltarch, Unemployed
    Martouscha Leaffall, Former Senator
    Mystic, A Beautiful Sorceress

    ((This is how it'll work - you'll have two weeks to do your campaign. What this mostly means is posting in the threads I created for you with whatever actions you do. If I catch you IG, I'll run something related for you as well - but the forums are the main tool for this.

    Have fun, and may the best liar.. erm.. politician win!))


  • Council of Moradin

    Gnarl awakes and hears about the King and his wanting to be closer to the people of Peltarch. Considering the group of the Forsworn has dwindled to just himself one other, he has found time on his hands. Now, taking up mining occupies him mostly, but he feels, perhaps he has something to contribute, what with his experiences and connections.

    So, he puts forward his name into consideration. He would see the Voice of the People heard "Loud and Clear"

    Gnarl Horst, First Knight of the Forsworn,(also awarded the title of General ) and member of the Council of Moradin

    Played by Gatlord



  • ((Yes, yes they did <.<

    I will post one or two NPC applicants also, later this week.. too sick to think or Narf right now.))


  • Legion

    @41fd574f29=Wywernywin:

    … Just so we're clear, the Voice of the People has similar powers, although slightly less, than a senator used to.

    // Wait … what!? Senators had powers!?



  • ((Last call, I'm going to make a campaign thread for each person in the morning (couple hours from now). Just so we're clear, the Voice of the People has similar powers, although slightly less, than a senator used to.))



  • ((Reminder that the application time closes in couple of days. So far no one has PMed me. If there's no one applying, I'll have to have NPC have the position. I'd rather have a PC in the king's council for obvious reasons.))
