Well, with the Scretary of Agriculture freshly dead, it seems there is an opening for one. Just for fun, I thought it would be interesting to get 2-3 candidates for the position and do some voting. If this sounds fun to anyone else, then let's do it. Otherwise, I'm sure this thread will disappear.

Heh, that's a nice idea Uther. The problem is that there is no real storyline for Gladius. There's not a single known non-gladiator NPC, no government structure, and there are only a handful of reappearing locations inside or outside Gladius.

Once I find the time, I'll draw an overland map for Gladius and the world it is in. Perhaps we can then add some NPC persons too.

Ok, so who wants to become the new secretary of agriculture?

Ceres the Lord of Luck nominates Jindl of the High Forest because of his expertise regarding botanical plant growth, which would help greatly in the production of grain stocks, ale, etc.
Kaigan

Rayos too pledges his support for Jindl of the High Forest
King Uther

I nominate the Diviner Va'ria Theladrais, who with her amazing knowledge and ability could help improve the productiveness of Gladius crops 4-fold. With her extensive study and experience, there is no being in Gladius who could do better.

@Arty: Now please try to assassinate this secretary :D

Va'ria graciously accepts the nomination for the position of Secretary of Agriculture.

Sokai thinks that she is cute, so he votes for her too.

That sounds like a challenge to me.

Very well, I accept.

Show up at 9 PM GMT on Wednesday. And bring a change of underwear.

Besides, Nyte may be cocky, but he isnt stupid. If Jindl gets the position Nyte will take him out on his own terms, heh

Won the position? I haven't even accepted the nomination.

As for taking me out, how about this. Since you don't feel too confident on your own, how about you bring 3 of your friends from the EHTC and I'll bring 1 of my friends (Laph, I'm looking at you), and we'll have ourselves a little handicap match.

Don't worry, the nimbus will revive you. Although it won't clean your underpants so make sure you and your friends bring a change.

-JotHFDo you think your words scare me? I could take care of you myself if I wanted to. But right now I have other, more important matters to attend to, rather than dealing with the likes of you.
Oh, and underpants hamper movement, so I wont need to worry about soiling those

Master of Forrests and Wildlife, it'll be an honour for me to support you! We need to keep our woods clear of such individuals! :D

How do like the idea to fight in the Jindl-Park, it's still in the Nimbus, so no danger of losing a level.
Kaigan

05-18-05, 09:52 AM
Rayos pledges his support to Jindl, yet again.

I will watch this fight from the sidelines in case of treachery.

With that, Aeuluath, Coralias, and Eiletha all pledge their support for Jindl. :D
King Uther

05-18-05, 04:21 PM
There will be a major group fight, moderated by me in a separate thread. The stipulations provided by Jindl is a 2 on 4 match-up :

Good side:

Jindl of the High Forest
Laph Jeirehneen

Evil Side:

Ensidious Nyte
Baelin "Called Shadow"
Any 2 others, who will be determined soon.

This matchup will occur in the week of June 8. All parties involved make good preparation, for this fight will determine bragging rights until another match-up between good and evil occurs. Since the good side has a numbers diadvantage, Jindl Park. I will prepare a map in the coming weeks so everyone can get familiar with it, but I only ask a little roleplaying so there is a good reason for the fight.
Pittbull

"Grandmaster Jindl, I'll stay in park and observe it. I don't think there is a great danger of this evil group, but being cautious, might be not wrong."

Laph will stay in the Jindl-Park in his spare-time. He leaves it only for arena-fights.
Snommelp

05-22-05, 04:54 PM
Is voting over yet? If not, Gablim will be viting for his Enlightened sister, Va'ria. Gullible Cedric will also vote for Va'ria, but Don Quixote will be voting for Jindl, because Quixote is very strong in his opinions about a woman's job.
King Uther

05-24-05, 11:49 PM
The Election will last until pairings are rolled the two weeks after next. (Symbolizing the end of the election, followed by the 2 on 4 fight). Everyone vote please for a total consensus.

I can open a real poll if you like. Jindl and Varia only?

Fine with me. Although try to figure out a way where each PC gets to vote, as opposed to each player, since that is how this election seems to be handled.

Rin Szen sweeps into view from the background, daughter in tow, and addresses the council, patronizing her daughter in the process.

“I, Rin Szen,” her tone changes wickedly, “and my daughter Jin,” returning respectful, “wish to pledge our allegiance. However, I do not see a ballot box for which we can cast our stone...”

A Poll would be neat, however, it will be hard to keep a running tally. Perhaps we could start a poll on the first post of this thread, or start a new thread and let it begin there, where you can vote for each of your characters and the creator of the post updates it regularly:

Votes for JotHF:
Blank
Blank

Votes for Varia:
Blank
Blank

Each Character post could then include the name of the character and for whom they are voting.

I have been keeping a tally of the votes in one of my posts near the top of the page..
Zerone

05-25-05, 01:45 PM
After Arstimis motions in the direction of the ballot box Rin glides forward and addresses the council once more.

"These proceedings seem biased... biased in favor of Jindl of the High Forest." At this, Rin and her daughter walk to the ballot box. As they stand before the ballot box and two bowls stones - white stones representing Jindl and black stones representing Va'ria - Rin reaches out her slender hand and lavishly caresses the pile of white stones. She suddenly switches posture, grabs a black stone, casts it into the ballot box, and turns her back to Jin. Jin snatches a black stone, glares at her mother's back, and cast it into the ballot box. "It is done," replies Rin. "We pledge our allegiance to Va'ria Theladrais... for now."

Hisoka the Clown enters with a smile and leaves with a slight bow and a prat fall, spending only enough time inside to place a black stone in the ballot box. "My vote is for Va'ria, but to whomever may win, I wish you happiness within your new job"

Griff walks into the room at the exact right time to hear Jindi's taunting quip. Seeing as how two members of the E.H.T.C. are involved, and liking the idea of slaying an elf, Griff decides to cast his alleigence with Baelin and Nyte. "I shall join them then" Griff says throwing back his hood and staring up at the taller Jindi. "It has been to long since I have had the opportunity to practice new necromancy magic on an unconcious elven subject, this will be my golden opportunity" Griff grins evilly...

Looking to Nyte and Baelin and noting that neither of them sadly posesses much in the way of physical strength, he stares at Nyte and says, "May I suggest that our fourth and final ally be Trokk?" Grinning evilly, "That unwashed barbarian would round off my plans quite nicely" Looking up at Jindi once more, "You will remember this day that you spoke in folly!" Grinning he exits the room to make his way back to the E.H.T.C.

Not sure how my credits are right now, but I should have some before the 8th and i'd like to see how this all plays out first hand...;-)
Jindl

05-26-05, 11:22 AM
OOC: I thought it would be much more appropriate to include Va'ria in this fight, since she is the other candidate and the recent participant in a quest to frame JotHF.

So I would like to see Nyte included for his cocky remarks and Va'ria included for trying to fram JotHF. The remaining two positions can be filled with whatever expendable members of the EHTC that you see fit to include.

King Uther

06-22-05, 10:22 AM
Since it's going to be a separate thread fight, I'll start it up soon. They still have 1 more quest week. As for your opponents....I believe they look like this.

Ensidious Nyte
Baelin "Called Shadow"
Griff Mythral
Va'ria Theladrais

06-22-05, 10:25 AM
Good. That gives me 1 more week to craft :devil:

I regret not getting the fight done sooner, since the challenge for Jindl and Laph is growing every day since the level gap is being reduced.

A druid and pixie are in an excited discussion when another pixie floats into their presence, “I, Asmeroviel, pledge my allegiance to that of the High Forest, Jindl, with wishes to further he and the fellow pixie's, Laph Jeirehneen, cause in the forthcoming battle, should they desire my services…” After his brief statement, Asmeroviel removes his helm and bows deeply, awaiting reply.

Asmeroviel was not created until recently. If there is still time and room, he would like to join in this battle of good vs. evil if it will not cause too many problems or unfair ECL teams. Thanks for consideration,

Zerone
King Uther

06-22-05, 11:10 AM
Right now it looks like it will be Two ECL 8s vs 2 EL 6, 1 EL 5, and 1 EL 4. Having another pixie may unbalance the scale. But I am open to discussion. If all parties don't care, then I don't.

An elf, wearing a cheerful grin and dressed in fairly provocative clothing, followed by a shoadowy man in a hooded cloak, walked up to the ballot box and cast their votes.

We pledge pledge our votes to Va'ria.
Sindorin

06-22-05, 12:08 PM
Va'ria, a bit confused, says to an anonymous bystander "I was under the impression that the election was over already... hrm, oh well" She walks towards the exit of the room. Looking over to the massed amount of people staring and whispering, she thinks to herself It seems that Nyte's foolish taunting and bragging have gotten some attention... I expect they'll want me to burn as well... oh drat, and I just got this manicure...

Also, the Secretary of Defense position will be open in a week. Anyone who wants to be considered needs to say so, and we'll go from there.
