I'd like to extend a warm welcome to those of you I was not able to talk to on the Observation Deck. I'm sure your sudden awakening here must have been... unpleasant, to say the least. But there are things that you all need to know -- things that will no doubt be even less pleasant to hear.

But you do deserve to hear them. Therefore, I invite you all to the location provided, where I will be holding a meeting tomorrow afternoon. I'll be happy to answer any questions you have at that time.

In the meantime, please accept my condolences. I know it cannot be easy to hear that your world has been lost.

[Coordinates included in the message. Meeting post will OOCly go up tomorrow evening. Until then, welcome newbies, and happy tagging!]

I've completed the initial stages of introducing several different fish species into the Kohaku River. As they are now in a relatively stable state populationwise, please feel free to fish them. Within reason, of course.

Additionally, if you'd like to assist me with caring for them or monitoring their movements and behaviors, let me know. Suggestions for additional fish species are also welcome.

[ATTN: Command, but everyone on the ship can read this]

For those of you who are not yet familiar with me, my name is Gerald Tarrant, and I am the most recent addition to the ship’s civilian Council. I have also been working with Farseer Ildraniath on the continuing problem of the Daligig. Before you turn off your communication screens: I have an important message that I believe concerns all of you.

First, I have a proposal to get rid of the Daligig presence on the ship. Second, if all goes well, we may even end up with the ability to decide where we want to take the ship, rather than having the Daligig decide for us.

I hope I have your attention. But for those of you who value brevity over completeness, feel free to skip to the part where I say we should all work together to stage an all-out rebellion against the Daligig and we need to communicate to do it.

Greetings to all of you, and my thanks for your vote. This afternoon, you may find me on the banks of the Kohaku River in the City. However, as promised, I will shortly be making rounds to speak with the crew. If there's anything you wish to request of me, please let me know. I will do my utmost to faithfully represent your interests.

-Gerald Tarrant.

Since our erstwhile leaders haven't yet seen fit to grace with us with a plan or any form of communication, I'm going to be doing this myself. Jaime? We're going to need your ability to block out Stacy's little probes.

I believe we can meet in Central Park in the city without fear of being overheard or of retaliation.

Should that fail, I'm sure we can find somewhere else to organize. If any of you are still interested in getting control of this ship, I'd like to meet and organize - in person, with copious notes - so we can begin detailing the resources we have at our disposal and what we might be able to do in the future. This is not going to be some brutish smash-and-grab operation wherein we get together and then storm off like some sort of angry mon-keigh mob.

I'll notify those of you interested via comms when we have this meeting.

My name is Gerald Tarrant, and I address to you today with my intent to run for a seat on the ship's civilian Council. For those of you unfamiliar with me, I am what my world termed an adept -- although you might be more familiar with the term ‘sorcerer’. I’m not overly fond of the term myself, since it implies that what I do is based on some kind of nebulous mystical force.

I am also over a thousand years old, just to get that out of the way.

( Election spiel here )

To be plain: I do not care where you come from. I do not care whether you are a soldier or an ordinary citizen. I do not care if you are a child or an immortal. Nor will I take into account whether I find you personally disagreeable. If you have an idea, something that can give us an upper hand in this war, something that will keep us all alive long enough to reunite with our loved ones, I will listen. Moreover, I will not content myself with waiting for you to come to me with your concerns -- I will come to you. I will ask for advice. For suggestions. For information on what I can do on your behalf.

That is my personal guarantee, sworn on my own honor. And I do not make promises I don’t intend to keep.

I want to revive the lines of communication between the Council and the rest of the crew. Because it’s not just our family and friends that are at stake in this war – it’s our survival. It's the survival of countless worlds, countless people. And I intend to do everything in my power to ensure that we all make it out of this in one piece.

If you have any questions for me, I would be happy to answer them.

Gerald Tarrant,
Neocount of Merentha,
Knight of the Realm,
Premier of the Order of the Golden Flame.]

TL;DR Tarrant is running for Council, on the basis of:
* His governance of Merentha County on his homeworld of Erna, particularly the port town of Merentha. (He may mention additional achievements if asked.)
* Reopening the lines of communication between the Council and the crew, restoring trust
* Ideas for improvements to security and defense aboard the ship
* Promises to take a proactive role in keeping the crew informed of his actions, as well as just going out and grabbing opinions from the crew
* Promises to listen to crew opinions/complaints/suggestions based on their merit vs. based on whether or not he likes you
* Devoting all his resources to the survival of the crew

Hello, friends!

I am Starfire, and I am a member of our Welcoming Committee. I apologize for my extended absence, but I have been in the company of GLaDOS. There was no cake, but that is all right! I have missed our wonderful slop from the mess hall!

Now that I have returned, I wish to get to know my friends and crewmates! I thought that we could begin by answering a question about ourselves.

Is there one ability, place, or experience that brings you joy? What brings that powerful happiness?

For me, it is battle! My people honor our strength and accomplishments, for this is what creates our resilience. I have forged my closest friendships in war against a common enemy, and I hope to repeat this feat here.

Greetings all.

I am Celena Vantari, head of the Infrastructure subdivision of Engineering, a subdivision that focuses on the construction, maintenance and repair of the ships infrastructure. As all of you know, due to recent events, a great amount of damage has been done to both the infrastructure of the city and other areas of the ship. It is now more than ever that we are needed to assist in repairing the damage that has been done.

If you wish to assist in the reconstruction, you needn't have prior construction knowledge, merely a will to assist, all are welcome to join the subdivision, no matter your skill set.

In addition to the ongoing repairs, there is great potential for new infrastructure to be built from the ruins of the old. One such project that has been put forth in the past is the construction of specifically built safe houses that could be utilized by the crew during times of crisis in addition to any existing safe zones.

I welcome as well any ideas as to the possibility of other infrastructure projects that could be conducted.

On a somewhat separate note, I and Rhiow have made something of a breakthrough in the workings of my Gateway devices, one that would allow a network of stable gateways to be constructed. We hope to work and organise such a gateway system with other transport infrastructure, such as Ronnae's suggested teleport system to make travel and transport of supplies and goods throughout the ship much more efficient.

At the current moment I have gathered sufficient supplies and equipment to manufacture and construct a fair number of these gateways.

Any who wish to assist in the construction of gates, or wish to know more about them, you are welcome to contact me.

To the crew at large:

My name is Tarrant and I was awakened during the most recent pod release. One of my personal specialties is performing what many of you would no doubt term 'magic'.

In light of what I've learned about the continued appearance of threats posed to the safety of the ship and its crew, I've decided to make it a little project of mine to reinforce some of the strongholds the crew has traditionally retreated to during times of emergency. I have already begun constructing some Workings around the Vatican that I think will be quite useful in the event of another attack.

You can thank me later.
