Voting plan Tran, but also indicate to individual inquisitors that we would be willing to hand over the Staff if we could find it. Haha no loving way. On the other hand, if we are found guilty DeVeris becomes Lord-Sire. And well, it's already apparent that he has trouble resisting the lure of artifact corruption [proof], whereas we can easily resist such things. We don't need to prove our innocence. We need to prove to our judges that it's in their best interests that we be found not guilty. Outrail fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Mar 1, 2015 |

Since we're proposing courses of action I'd like us to sound out the Ocularians Radicals that disagree with Siadwell and his way of doing things will be just as good for us as Puritans in this case.

What we want is something more proactive, something that fits out needs. Let me tell you the good word about the Phaenonites! Originally an offshoot of the Xanthites, the Phaenonites believe in a mastery of the warp and the fate of mankind through technology. Why limit ourselves to what we can and can't use or research when all those warnings about research and the dangers of advancing technology are just mere superstition? The Phaenonites believe that the future of Mankind lies with man and immortal machine, joined together to rule the cosmos. Why bother with just using Xenos, Chaos/Daemon or ancient Human technology when you can join them all and bind them to your will? Besides, we're already half way there. We're a Tech Priest of Mars but we can understand the importance of AI and we carry an Eldar Shuriken pistol because technology is just a tool.

...Out of curiosity, since we're supposed to have a tribunal by =][=... Why not get The Dwarf on the tribunal? He seems to be amused by us, and that should count for something. Further, if we're interested in helping him for helping us, this is a good way to say, "The Inquisition is what matters, and the Inquisitors are cracking at the seams." Also, it seems like a thing that Mrs. Ohone Konichev would do, being the snarky one and all. Feels weird to be married. ~ Hi guys! Long time no see. And @MyDad, I was interested to see that you found my essay a few days ago! Out of curiosity, how did you come across it?

Yeah, until we've solidified our power base, we really shouldn't be dabbling in radicalism any more than necessary. Playing nice with the Puritans now will allow us to dip our toes in Radicalism at our leisure.

Remember the factions aren't political parties, we don't pick one and fill a form to join them, they're just rough categorizations of what our usual approach to more controversial issues is like. We can, and should, work together with as many people as we can, and can express sympathies for people's ideals without publicly signing up for their newsletter.

So what if they're declared traitors and are hunted and killed on sight by the Inquisition and the Mechanicum? Sure these guys are insane, evil and hated by other radicals but we just need to keep our membership really, really secret. Besides those guys just don't understand us. Sometimes you need to sacrifice a world or two to ensure that your daemon bound xenos death ray works at full capacity. Humanity will thank us for it in the future when we bind every soul to the machine and rule the galaxy with order and a metal fist. They'll probably even dedicate a statue or two to us. Really, it's for the greater good. The Greater Good. These guys put the rad in radical. Don't you want to join all the really, really cool kids in their super exclusive club?

The Puritans are pretty much the only guys who will wear their philosophy on their sleeves. Radicalism, no matter how well intentioned will get you a bad reputation at best and outright hunted down at worst. I think its one of those things where you either get willingly recruited into or had no idea you were involved in until people started hunting you down for heresy. Out of all the radicalist factions, the Xanthites are probably the most open and justifiable since a lot of the things they do are an extension of existing Imperial policy. The Imperium already relies heavily on psykers(witches), Navigators (mutant/witches) and Machine Spirits and servitors (AI and robots) so exempting more useful people or ideas from purging is a logical step. The best way forward for us is to really just hold your beliefs close to yourself and try not to upset anyone.

Okay, so I have a court plan. Loosely inspired by Papal Conclaves. Supreme Judge: Aestaban Gant Secondary: Tetriary: Candidates: Puritans Gustava Maineri (Amalthanism) Anatolli Maruseva (Monodominant) Edourd (Thorian) Radicals Lothar Orlosky (Xeno Hybris) Jazmine Mammano (Istvaan) Lynwood (Recongregationist) Three Judge Tribunal (Troika) Claimant vs Claimant Prosecutor: Siadwell Defendant: You 13 Available Votes. Six are needed to be a Judge Amalthanism (vote unknown) Lien Ibdah Gaius Caligula Monodominant (vote unknown) Janelle Calex Kati Costanzi Thorian (vote unknown) France Demetris Tiberius Davide Ocularian (vote unknown) Deiad Herrion Patience Modrak Xeno hybris (vote unknown) Czevak Morn Pamelia Lueker Xanthite (will choose whoever Siadwell wants) Adonai McLatchy Libius Severus Abajian Recongregationist (Lynwood) Lynwood Loel fucked around with this message at 09:29 on Mar 1, 2015 |

We probably want Puritans on the bench, they don't like Siadwell and any Radical things we've done pale compare to him (as far as they know). But we want to quietly reach out to everyone, feel them out, see where they are regarding this. Also, before we go to Lynwood acting too interested, we should quietly inquire as to whether that's a honeypot for people interested in doing things the 'wrong way' and not a proper way to get into the Recongregationists.

Okay so I think the best thing to do from here regarding the trial is to first pick which two judges we want (might need to learn more about them first), and then start trying to sway the vote the way we want. I think the best strategy will be to make sure one of the judges will be a Puritan who will favor us, and then try to get a Radical judge who is also likely to favor us (or at least isn't inclined to disfavor us). I'd like to get two Puritans who want to burn Siadwell on the spot, but we are pretty unlikely to get it. Now that isn't to say we shouldn't push for that as hard as we can, just that one Puritan and one Radical who likes/doesn't hate us is what we bare minimum want. We should also learn everything we can about the Supreme Judge, obviously. Every moment we don't spend politiking I'd like Ohone to spend learning everything from the Database that she can, like a good little Tech-Priest.
