While this wasn't the first time posters were plastered over the city. A masked form thought civic duty was in order so posters were plastered over city hall and the surrounding blocks.

A few hours later the same hooded figure plastered more posters around city hall and surrounding blocks.

Radio transmissions interrupt broadcasts throughout the city.

"Hola! Ni Hao! Konichiwa! Pip pip ol' chap or however those brits say hello while sipping tea on the streets. It is I, Jesse, the greatest Archmage to grace Twilight Isle and the leader of the People's Republic of RhyDin!

Eye'm more than proud to announce mine running in the Governor race! Are you tired of the normal and mundane"

Are you one of the downtrodden" Are you those who hide in the night, afraid some goody-goody is going to gang up on you with twenty of his friends for a zerg rush in the middle of the market place since they can't one vee one you like a real woman and/or man or a-sexual being who has no gender identity"!

Are you tired of being persecuted JUST for being different' and by different, I mean undead or I guess a vampire...and demons too. And I guess those non-supermodel looking people...I swear, everyone in this city is a supermodel. Ahem, Well vote for me!

I will make sure YOUR rights go above EVERYONE ELSES. It is time for the flesh bags and heroes to feel what it is like to be the hated! THIS IS CHANGE! THIS IS EQUALITY!

...Okay, not really equality for them, but equality for us...Either way, IT'S JUSTICE!

By the way...Mark, if you are listening to this. Could you put me down for twelve thousand on Harris" I know the challenge is over already but I'm wondering if I can weasel my way into easy money.

ANYWAY! VOTE FOR ME! EQUALITY!"

Many ghouls, goblins, and other creatures that bump in the night begin making their rounds in the city. They moan, groan, and probably break a few bones while slapping up different posters all over the place.

Ready to show how EQUAL you can be? Bring your kids, bring your spouse, bring your girlfriends uncle twice removed! Bring the whole extended family! Patty's Pleasure Parlor and their trained staff of Succubi will be more than willing to poke you with something nice, red, and QUITE hot.

Show your pals how stylish you are with the new EQUALITY brand! Wear it with pride as you vote for Jesse, your future governor who truly fights for your FREEDOMS!

Billy even let us take a picture of his!

Billy was so happy about the brand that he was quoted saying, "Lady, are you really going to suck out my soul if we go all the way' Or are you one of those weird chi-sucking succubus-chicks?"

Good going, Billy! Keep fighting the good fight! FOR EQUALITY!

Pamphlets and flyers were circulating throughout the city, being rather annoying to people that had cars or horses or any temporarily placed mode of transport that could have something crammed into it.

Are you tired of Governors doing things that "make sense financially' or "adhere to a higher moral code" of some sort'

SO AM I

This pretty-okay city was founded on...Actually, I have no idea what principles this place was founded on, but I'm pretty sure they've all been thoroughly subverted by this point. REGARDLESS, I'm here to tell you that if you're tired of the same old or same new or just plain don't care about what those in high positions of government do, I'm your candidate!

Some people might be thinking "Well Skid, you're an irresponsible monster who'll probably just sit back and throw that title around to see if it'll get you free stuff!" and you're only half-right, you nay-saying scum! While I'm definitely going to throw that title around like a sack of bricks (which'll probably get boring after a week) I'm also actually going to do stuff with all the tax money those citizens that aren't jerks pay!

"But Skid," you ask, "What could a horrible monster possibly want to do with tax dollars aside from throwing them at Jewell and Peaches during Fists nights in the Outback?"

Well I'll tell you if you shut up for a minute, obnoxious little voice in my head!

I'm going to reform Rhy'din's orphanage system and the City Watch, and MAYBE those two things will be related to one another! But why would I give all the secrets away now? That's half the fun and, as a politician, transparency is my single greatest foe!

I'm going to revamp the city's municipal services and appoint liaisons to each of the city's Baronies to have them more efficiently DO WHAT I WANT THEM TO. That's right, Sword-nerds, I know your fancy terms and the places you're in charge of! TREMBLE AT THE SCOPE OF MY SHALLOW BUT BROAD TOPICAL KNOWLEDGE, VOTERS.

I'm going to appoint a council of people that I haven't had any prior discussion with to run all the stupid, boring parts of the city that I don't care about because even if I don't feel like caring about you, I can get someone else to do it for me!

Most importantly, and least importantly, pancake dinners will be mandatory in one random city district every second Wednesday of the month. Noncompliance will be punishable! By death!

Posters accompanied the flurry of these pamphlets.

The being heard posters weren't enough. A few days later several posters of the candidates were plastered all over the city. Shield from any camera, the identity of the culprit remains a mystery.

Seeing two more candidates, there were additional posters left around town for the newest candidates.

No one saw the one putting up the posters leaving the mystery as to who and why they were being posted.

Posters started floating around. How he'd convinced him, nobody knew; but the offer had been made.
