King's Council Election

[Zezimus 1523]

 

As you make your way past the dwarven notice board, you see a large scroll, upon it scribed a long list of dwarven names and the positions they are running for. With an electoral statement accompanying each of them, some have clearly had more effort put into than others. Besides the notice board rests a raven feathered quill and a small pot of ink, as well as a large list of ballot papers. At the bottom of the scroll, written in bold letters are the words. "The election will end in three elven days. Place your votes while you can!"

Yemekar's Pick

 

Rehki Irongut (bov61)

"I feel that I can lead the commoners and boost production."

 

Bael Tunnelsmasher (Bipolar_Juice)

"Becos' ah am."

 

Darain Grandaxe (MrBamPow)

"I have great ideas that will help organize the coordination and management of jobs to increase our economy. Since I have been Lord Marshall before and 2nd command of the Legion many times I have experience for organization and leadership."

Grand Merchant 

 

Skath Grandaxe (zortjr)

 

Dun Irongut (blackhawk77g)

"I have done much in my short life. I have studied the history of our culture, I have fought for our forefathers, and I have poured the lifeblood of the Dwarven nation, ale, for it's citizens and for those far and wide. I have traded shrewdly throughout my life and participated in many financial endeavors, earning myself a rather nice fortune. I believe this more than qualifies me for the position. If I were elected... There are three things that I would use my power for: The construction of a underground road system and a government subsidiary operating for the kingdom, so that we may expand into the reaches of our ancestral home and live within the deeps and mountains that are our birthright; An organization of a national currency (or the use of a hard money system involving direct trade value for smelted ores, so metal bars could be used to trade within our national economy much quicker), which would allow for quick exchanges between others nations and ours; and finally attempt begin the construction of organized trade stores and camps that will occupy other lands in the name of earning wealth for the kingdom."

 

Murog (jakesimonson)

"Cuz ah am."

 

Moruk Frostbeard (Payed_Legend)

"I feel that I am more than fit for this position, reason being I have been known to be one of the wealthiest Dwarf out there along with Gorum, and at one point had over 700k minas. I have used many different strategies  to exponentially increase mina production and owned about six businesses in which I looked to gain maximum profit. At the time the wealth was used for personal and clan use, but now I am seeking to use my experience to help the nation and represent them as their Grand Merchant."

 

Kardel Irongut (Ziko99)

"Since ah was a beardlin', ah wus guud at makin' muneh. Durin' mah lun' loife, ah've operated many shups an' udder establis'ments. Durin' mah years uv loife, ah 'ave learned 'ow ta socialize an' 'ow ta make da must coin wif da least effurt, an' da biggest prufit wif minimal spendin'. Ah may nae be a guld'and, bot ah be jost sa guud as un en makin' minas, if maybeh bettah. Ah 'ave made maneh small touns flouris' wif mah buisness skills, an' nou dat ah am capable uv 'andlin' sumetin moch larger. Ah 'ave served da Dwarven Natien en toimes uv war, an' at toimes uv ecunomic deppresiens, an' nou 'ow ta prevent da ecunumeh frum failin'. Boi maneh, ah 'ave been tuld dat ah be woise, an' dese w'ere nut jost uppiniens uv un group uv people, but uv maneh different uns. Dat be da reasen woi ah t'ink ah'm fit fer dis jub."

Master Engineer

 

Dominic Irongut (doom6153)

"I've been it since the position was created."

 

Theyrn Grandaxe (Whoba)

"I feel that Theryn is this right person for this job because he has large amounts of experiences in the field of engineering."

 

Nalro Grayhammer (TheNander)

"I believe that I am more than qualified for the position. Unlike other applicants I have references and experience to back it up. I have been taught by Oghren and the Head Architect of Kaz. I have experience in the position and was also the first Dwarf to be titled Master Engineer. If references and proof of experience are needed don't hesitate to ask."

 

Kalen Forseth (501warhead)

"In my past I have lived in positions that allowed me some forms of creative freedom with what I wanted to do. Under this, I became an engineer.  I, in my past, have become a master in this field, and the forerunner in it. I am an accomplished shipwright, being the sole designer and creator of King Syrio's Beard, the infamous ship. I have mastered mathematics, and designed whole cities using it, Alras was built under my formulas. I am, as most engineers are, a master of redstone, creating vaults, and circuits with over 23 different inputs and 12 different outputs. As a siege engineer I excel, I am the sole original creator of the infamous device the world dubbed "Cannons", Jed Goldrush was my apprentice. My former title was Royal Engineer of Alras, Head and founder of the A.E.G., the Alrasian Engineers Guild, which has notable names such as Jed Goldrush and Raeg have presided. My stance is that I, having the experience I have, would be a great asset to the nation of Kal'Urguan, more so than previous holders of the title 'Master Engineer'."

[Miquill 188]

*Horrun comes by the paper and chuckles, he looks around before taking the quill and adding his name to the ballet of Grand Merchant, he then comes of with a masterful lie and writes down a statement.*

 

Horrun Uruk-Geblüt

 

"Before settling in the Dwarven Hold with all of you, I once traveled the lands with my father selling merchandise. I picked up many skillful traits on how to make money, and how to use money wisely. I will not let you all down if you give me this position."

"Me ideas are better t'en Darain's!"

 

Bael waits impatiently for yet another Yemekar's Pick who will do absolutely nothing.

 

[[ Why do the orcs all vote for me :\ ]]
