Guardian Debates! Live TV and action if you're in attendance!
[ Everyone's TVs will flicker on and to the Genessia News Channel for a Live Special Report. The Show Host pops out from beneath the podium, a cool tenor voice coming straight from him as he addresses the camera. ]
Well heeeeello there everyone! We interrupt your day for a very special report! It's your favorite host with news about the City Guardian Election, live, despite the weather folks! It turns out electronics don't work so well in the freezing cold, so we've had to move our Guardian's debate to warmer pastures! Thank you to our sponsor, Hot Diggity! Toast your houses so warm this winter you'll think you're bread. Though let's hope a little chill won't freeze out any of the candidates, ha ha ha! Or should I say ho ho ho?
[ There's a brief pause before he swivels to a second camera and the camera view zooms in on his face as if he didn't just make the lamest news pun. ]
We are broadcasting live from right here in Genessia City. Many folks are in attendance, including our very own GCPD who are here to monitor and keep the peace. Let's begin the live debate-slash-Q&A you've all been waiting for. Here's how it works: You all come up with questions to ask each of the Guardians, and each Guardian will have the opportunity to answer it to help you decide which of your candidates is the right one for your city. You can submit your questions via text to the CPU and it will beam them to our stage, or if you're here in the audience, head on up to the podium and ask in person! Now to introduce our candidates.
Attleton puts the A+ in Guardianship, but will it be return Guardian Cassian Andor? Or will Chara or Cecil Palmer talk up a storm in the citizen's hearts?
Everglade as always returns with two beautiful ladies, the gorgeous and charitable returning Guardian Grell Sutcliff and a new gem, Emerald Sustrai! Who will shine harder in this debate?!
Fayren keeps its tradition of having the largest number of candidates with four all-stars! Welcome Alexstrasza, Qubine, Winter Schnee, and current acting Guardian Mavis Vermillion! A goddess, a dragon, an ice queen, and a fairy-esque guild-leader. What a variety!
Nova City's coming in hot! Check it out, Mercury Black and Garrus Vakarian trying to stay in office with a dual ticket! Current Deputy Guardian Grievous saying: It's my turn, boys! And a newcomer from a new corner, Gale Reinhard, ready to rock Nova City all night long!
Let's not forget the heart of our cities, the hostess with the mostest, Genessia City! It's the mayor-punching expert, X-Ray and our long-term favorite returning Guardian David Haller!
Let's get started folks! Get out of the showers and into the town hall for this live debate, starting in 30 minutes! You've still got time to pop in, let's go, and don't forget to cast your votes this Tuesday, December 26th at the polls!
{ OOC NOTE: Anyone can reply to this post with a question they want to ask the potential City Guardians. Each City Guardian candidate is tasked with answering any question on this post. No candidate is required to, but lack of participation may affect public opinion of the candidate! Lack of any activity during the election season will disqualify your candidate, however.
On December 26th, the polls will officially go up and each character will be afforded one vote for each city. So if you play 5 characters, you will need to submit 5 IC vote choices; if you only play 1, then only that character will vote. This means you as the player are voting on your character's behalf because it's going to be in the OOC comm just so that we can include instructions. There will be further information at that time as well as a link to a "booklet" with candidate information. For now though, the debate is here! }

You asked for a demonstration did you not? You said I should have more than just words, yet I should have offered more words? The fact that I've not been in this place long and have no such acts to list yet completely aside from the point.
If I acted out of turn, I apologize, I am still learning about this place and its customs.

You are the one who chose to willfully interpret 'acts of service' as 'public demonstration.' I made no such request.
[Winter steps forward and grips the back of the chair she abandoned.]
You also expect me to believe that no one in your world is flammable, and that none of them would flinch if you suddenly opened your mouth and exhaled flames in their face.
[Either she's a fool to think Winter would swallow a story like that, or she comes from a world of fools.]

[What inane path of logic is that?!]
The communicator places the date of your arrival at November 27th. Not less than two weeks later, you see fit to nominate yourself the guardian of a realm you do not know or understand, and now you claim that you love this realm and its people...because it is your nature.
Anyone who approached me with such a claim would be highly suspect, and I am hardly unique in holding such a view. I suggest that until you have had ample time to prove your love to those people by serving them and protecting them, the role of Guardian would only inspire suspicion and mistrust. By all appearances, it will more closely resemble a quick grab for power than any sincere expression of care and devotion.

Perhaps you are right. This is nothing if not a learning experience. Win or lose, I will have a better understanding of this place. But, I believe it is their place to decide, not ours.
