Town Meeting

Town Meeting



Town Meeting


With the recent events that have transpired in regards to Young Bill's plan to starve out the Forest Talkers — the eco-terrorist group that has been hounding him and leaving macabre scenes all over the Lakeside area, Interlopers have called a town meeting to discuss what to do on this.

Rather than playing out the Town Meeting, like with the Darkwalker's second attack, consider this post an OOC post of that meeting, for players to share their character's thoughts and feelings on the situation — along with the best approach in regards to Young Bill's proposal.

Players are free to thread out scenes from the Town Meeting in their own event toplevels/open posts if they wish to do so — but this is more of a quick catchall on character's thoughts that's more accessible to everyone — and players can have their characters +1 ideas they agree with!

Please fill out the following form.



EDIT: THERE IS A POLL FOR INTERLOPERS TO VOTE ON

Player Name / Contact: Basil, [plurk.com profile] woodrift
Character Name: Shiro Ashiya
Character Journal: [personal profile] khatsudoom

Character Thoughts/Ideas:

Ashiya is new here and still trying to get his bearings, but a few key thoughts --

1. Taking goods from the caches is a dumb move because it'll serve to make the Forest Talkers both Hungry and Angry. Desperate people do desperate things, and both the mutilated bodies in the forest and the fact that they've attacked people in town clearly show that they're very likely to react with violence.

2. Ashiya is on Team Kidnap and Interrogate. He's willing to help but he just doesn't know enough yet to do much to assist. Someone with a ton of charisma and knowledge would have to take point on this.

3. Using the caches as a point to negotiate over is actually a really good idea if the abduction plot fails.


4. Mostly.... He's here to help how he can, which might not be very much at the moment.

Kidnapping will also make them angry, but hopefully not hungry…

Ideally it'll be just One Person that they'll return when they're done...

If the Talkers had taken Ruby and Wynonna hostage I don't think letting them go after would have made interlopers want to kill them less…

True... But the plan shouldn't be hitting the hostage in kind.

Instead, let's give them a hit meal to... Loosen their tongue.

She's not sure it's a good idea but bribing them with food is at least a novel plan.
