TOWN COUNCILLOR POOKIA HEEL TURN THREAD

I NEED TO MAKE THIS THREAD WHERE YOU ALL HELP ME WIN i will ask questions soon this is mostly a placeholder

http://forums.play.net/forums/GemStone%20IV/Cities,%20Towns,%20and%20Outposts/Wehnimer's%20Landing/view/15366

i filled out the questionare in character and sent it i dont know if you want to see it, im embarassed. here it is

1. What does Wehnimer’s Landing mean to you?

its my home! ive been blowing up the tower by zoning out during picking since i was a CHILD. i keep trying to like, go check out other places to hunt and maybe live. rivers rest came close but theres nothing like the hustle and bustle of the landing. i keep weird hours so most other places id try to live are DEAD when im alive. the landing never is!

everyone from all over really does show up there at one point or another. like you HAVE to pass through the landing at some point in your life, you cant say that for any other town really. i like being a part of that. i like feeling like im part of an essential organism

oh also the violence is ridiculous i love gore

2. What do you feel you can bring to Wehnimer’s Landing, if serving on the town council?

well i mean if i can convince a town of bloodthirtsty racists not to kill a bloodthirsty slaver i can probably help people get along with their neighbors a little bit!

im newer in town, my perspective can be a little bit ‘outsider’ at times because of this, but i think that brings freshness. im like a delicious fruit on a dancers hat

3. What are the goals you would like to accomplish for Wehnimer’s Landing? How would you do this?

LESS MEEETINGS! MORE ACTION! or maybe moving town forward meetings along in a more official way. like actually organizing who talks when and making people raise their hands and talk in order so i can follow it. having minutes before meetings, having summaries for people who cant stay the whole time.

4. Describe your connection to Wehnimer’s Landing, your history with the town and its people, and why this makes you the best choice for councilor?

i guess i answered a lot of this in question one, but i havent talked about being in the militia! i dont have a lot of interest in the oil between the gears in how the militia runs, but im 100 percent on board for defending the town. i love teaching youngers how to run a ballista and see their eyes light up as a mook gets GNARLY IMPALED on a bolt. i dont act on a personal agenda in the militia cuz theres no room to have one. its just me, my ropes, my logs, and my ballista. pure moods

the appeal of voting for me/me running is im definitely an everyman. my intentions are pure in wanting to make the town better and safer and that people feel heard. if peopel want to complain about the town council i want to talk to those people and know what the town council isnt doing right. pookias offiice wont even have a LOCK

5. Do you belong to any organizations, inside or outside of Wehnimer’s Landing?

drakes vanguard
rogue guild master
voln master
zelia #1 fan
bulwark of the knucklehead brigade
member of silvergate inn


please throw mideval election slogans at me or give me ideas for attention whoring. its a popularity contest and im good at those, but im bad at knowing anything about The Time

i would recommend starting with a documentary about some Merlin dude, Artus and some roundtable stuff…

… though if I am honest, at one or two points i felt like they were stretching it a bit, but what do I know, haven’t been alive back then! :older_man:

Anyway, if you want to cover your bases, better claim allegiance to Quintessa?
If I’d have properly learned latin vocab, i would be able to produce some snappy slogan that’s better than

Optimus Prime in Colosseum est.

or

Morituri te Salutat, Quintessa!

… so idk, ymmv and maybe … just … ignore this post … :twinklestar:

you can’t use any language other than english in character so i can’t use those phrases but I CAN read the link you sent me

they’re also doing con things. i heard theres going to be a jimmy buffet themed line dancing lesson. i was told that that means the theme is ‘be drunk’

candidates arent announced til the 14th so i just get to sit around twiddling my thumbs for 10 days spreading rumors about some knucklehead running for mayor or something

they’re too small and their toes and balls of the feet stick out over the edge of the sandals when they wear them, so they’ll get the barefoot experience anyways

the way you described this made me imagine a foot rapidly expanding and consuming a sandal like the end of akira

That’s like if you want to push the limits of a no shirt, no shoes, no service sign. Vestigial shoes.

tank top and extremely “brief” sandals. Daisy dukes as well for good measure. Just go full “technically there, but not quite” clothing items.

would people be interested in a stream where i like, actually explain the mechanics of gemstone or at least answer peoples questions? i have all this hyper specific knowledge in my head that i would like to vomit upon you all

i know i did the auction stream but like, literally nothing happened besides a chat room bidding on items that i barely understood. this would be like, hunting/picking boxes/maybe people talking to me (i barely ever talk to people but people come up to me all the time i cant control this one) basically

You tap a tawdry twig-toggled tote tassled with pink-tinted titan toes, which is in your right hand.
