"No you may not Sebastian! You have neglected this government long enough and we have turned to worship Voidus and our ruler!" The DA man shouts from the pulpit. "Also the DA doesn't want anything to do with him, and Mac is declining to make a public appearance as of yet. Something about science taking up his time."

Mack returned to the court with Laonin in tow. "Your majesty, I was wondering if we would be allowed to have a meeting for a traders union in the alleycity here? Would that be alright with you?" With that said he waited for everyone to show up. @Ark1002 @Steel Inquisitive @Darth Woodrack @Karnatheon @Dr. Dapper

"No problem. The nice thing about the Dor, is that with enough knowledge you can create a post scarcity society." Mack reached down to touch the ground to activate the Aon, teleportating them to newcago.

"I can get us there quickly, and anyone else who needs a ride. I'm choosing that place because the craftsmen complex isn't well structured toward biggish meetings, and I can't very well ask someone else to host a meeting I'm putting together." Mack called over an assistant and gave him a message to deliver to @Dr. Dapper, @Darth Woodrack @Ark1002 @Steel Inquisitive telling them to meet him in Newcago for the meeting. "Follow me." Mack walked out into the hall to get to the tia room. This would be able to take them to Newcago instantaneously. "You ready? Anyone you want to bring with you?" @Karnatheon

Mack clapped his hands together, beaming. "Great! Now I think we should have a meeting with all the projected members of the union to start planning. I think that Newcago is a good place to hold it, what do you think?" @Karnatheon

The DA man, still standing in the front, said "See? This is why you all need a theocracy!"

"Guilds was a poor choice of words, I meant the smaller companies. Guilds imply resources, I just need talent. As of now, I have dusk and the citadel on board, Alleyzon, the Arts Haven, and hopefully Trident manufacturing. I don't intend to help the city, I intend to transform it. With the Craftsmens abilities in Dor programming we can make this city actually decent to live in. We can add electricity, running water, all sorts of amenities. Art's haven can help make the city actually beautiful. Trident can manufacture things, and mass produce it. Alleyzon can help with communication and shipping, and Dusk can provide natural materials. I've heard that you guys are working on fixing the city. Both physically and spiritually. Helping out the locals. That's good, and an important step. The Alleycity should belong to the people, but the new government doesn't look like it will help with that. I'm not going to lie to you, I fully intend to keep a firm control on the things we create. I am happy to put you in charge of them, but I will always be watching to make sure that the other guilds don't get their hands on it. The infrastructure that we put in place can easily be abused once people begin to rely on it. So in that sense, yes. We will probably bump heads with the government if they try to seize control. But it is for the people. You were the last person I was going to reach out too. You are a leader among the people. You were the first person to try to make a change. For that, I commend you. Do you want a place in this?" @Karnatheon

I like the Alleyverse focus of it, but I have to doc at least one point because it doesn't mention the DA as the best guild. Also, we aren't *technically* supposed to have spoiler tags in out signatures. Its against the rules, so I have to doc at least one point for that. But I love the simple readable nature. All in all, about 8.5/10.

So now he's at the 160 point mark, with 80 for the investiture, and 80 for the increased speed and stuff. I definitely think that the stupidity is a fun weakness, and should count for something. The spikes also count, but I'm not sure how much they could count for. I'm working on redoing a few parts of the index and will try to get back to you all on that. It really comes down to @Lord Meeker's opinion.

Maq looks to the side, having heard that someone was claiming that the DA wanted some Walker fellow dead. That just wasn't true! "Take me over toward that fight," He whispered to Mackc. They made their way over to where a fight was starting, and Maq sized up the man claiming to be from the DA. Facing Makc, he mouthed the words, "three times the strength and speed. F steel and pewter." He then turned to the crowd. "As a member of the DA I would like to say that we do not want to kill this Walker fellow! We could really care less about him honestly. We only have active death warrants out for Sudiov. That's about it. Thank you for your time." Makc didn't hear Maq's announcement, but he was watching the fighters with his finger on his revolver. The gun was loaded, and ready to fire. If things broke out, he would shoot the attacker first, then toss a rioting grenade toward him rioting all of his emotions. With 7 or 8 spikes in him he wouldn't be able to stand.

I am Mac still.

Also, two things about this character, the first: Does he have a steel linchpin spike? If not, you might want to add them. Not having a steel linchpin spike can be lethal when you have 4 or more spikes. Also, quick questions about his backstory, where on scadrial did he learn to use hemalurgy? Was he inducted into the Steel inquisition? If so what time and why is he no longer an inquisitor. If he wasn't, then how did he learn hemalurgy? Because during Era 2 harmony was suppressing knowledge of hemalurgy. Also, you can't steal multiple traits from the same person, no matter how similar they are. Like someone couldn't steal my loyalty to both Voidus, and the DA, they would have to choose one or the other. He would need to steal the investiture of the steel and pewter ferrings, and steal the the physical strength and speed from other people. Next, what's his Epic weakness? Finally, I would consider adding some more weaknesses, because F-steel and F-pewter add up to about 90 points, plus the shardblade is about 120. The Epic power will give it more points, and the extra strength and speed should count for something. @Voidus what would you rank Darkhold's power to be at?

The issue with characters dying from old age is that that never will affect us in the RP. All that means is that if they last for a few eras, eventually they won't be able to be RP'ed

The clerk grinned, "Of course, right this way." He walked over to a door and opened it up, leading to a descending staircase. "Despite the humble storefront, we have quite the complex underground. The Union project is above my paygrade, so I am going to take you to a conference room where I can get the boss to meet with you," He opened a door to a small room with a table in it. "Wait here please, he will be a minute." The man walked out. About 5 minutes later he returned with an elantrian in black and gold robes. "Hello Mr. Kungli, you came here to talk about the Traders Union? I was actually just about to try to find you.," Mack took a seat then continued talking, "The traders union would be a group of guilds allied together for greater political power, but also to help the people of the city. I have little to no faith in a government that consists of the people who caused the problems that they neglected to fix for about 18 years. I am endeavoring to get the major companies together to try and improve the city. While this is certainly a big project, we can definitely accomplish it. I heard that you and your people are trying to fix up parts of the city as well, would you be interested in joining the project?" @Karnatheon

Mack felt his wrist buzz, he was needed at the base. “I will take my leave now. I’m needed elsewhere.” with that he tapped a Tia taking him to he base.

That person happened to be a clerk sitting at the front desk. “Hello there!” He asked with a smile on his face, “How can we help you?”

Mack stood up. “My queen, these were the people I was talking to you about earlier. Where you decided that it would be better to retain our soviergnity instead of joining them.”

Mack walked over to Patrick and shook his hand. “Welcome to the court!” Turning to the queen, he asked, “your majesty, this reminds me of a question I had earlier. Are there different ranks in the court? Different roles for the nobles? And do we each own a section of land?”

The Mc’s stopped before they got too close to the fight. Between the three of them they had one fighter. “We can talk to Devann/hellbent after” Maq muttered.

Maq stood up from the strange lady as a new man walked into the clearing. This guy was really weird holy moly. Maq leaned over to Makck, “take me to the new guy” Makck checked with Makc, who just shrugged. They lifted him up and began making their way over to the new blond man. Hopefully he wouldn’t be scared off by them.

"What? No!" Mac said, exhausted, "I am well enough to learn. Voidus, I need to learn this. Sudiov is hurting the DA. We can barely leave our own territory! I need to learn this." He tried to summon some passion into his voice, but he still only felt the void. "I need to figure this out." He tried to stand up but couldn't muster the effort. "At least tell me what's wrong with me? I need to know that much." Again he tried to stand up, but failed. He opened his mouth to talk, but was confused when he found that he didn't want to. He focused his attention on trying to talk and barely squeezed out "Somethings wrong." In the back of his mind, he realized that Voidus was right. Whatever this was, he wouldn't be able to learn. He could barely function right now. It's like he had lost the will to talk. He whispered, "You're right. I need to recover."

Warning, bean has been known to attack me .

I can take a more specific role as cookie chef if needed.

Could I sign up as a baker? I promise that I won't kill beantheboy12, or any customers.

Lots and lots of handwavium.
