Might want to check out that weapons group at some point. There is a chance that when you “overthrow” Rastin they may perceive you as weak and that it would be the perfect time to attempt to seize power before you are settled. Even though really you already have control and could likely crush them it’s probably a good idea to curb as much civil unrest as possible so your ascension to power appears to go smoothly.

You'll need a look that you know people will follow.
One that speaks of dashingness and daring!
You really only have one choice.

Arcanitech - Go there. Let us see if Ignometics is still around. They were nice to us the last time we met.

Bleeding Hearts - Sounds emo. Your call, boss.

Church of Life - Sounds good. Let us take a look.

Experientialists - Avoid. Hippies are weird.

FurReality - NO! Just ... just no.

Men's Club - Nope.

Neotis Weaponry Association - Ehh.

Nihilism Tech - Go there. Remi is an interesting person.

Retirement Association - We are not elderly or to be more precise. You are not. So no.

Sorcerer's Guild - Learning is always good.

Technotics - As a mechatronic I have to say that this sounds like a good place to start.

The Secluded - An entire block? Sounds powerful. Visit.

Transcendants - No.

hrm, Definitely want to avoid the unsafe ones if we can. Although being dangerous can help us once we are in.

Nihilism would probably be the least suspicious and easiest choice.

However we could learn a lot from the Aracantech and the Sorcerer's guild.

... man I'm totally split here.

Arcanitech seems the most powerful; that's probably who we want to get appointed through.

The Sorceror's guild could be a good choice as well, and Vresch recommended we go there to become apprised on the thaumic situation.

I also confess a sort of morbid curiosity in FurReality. If magic has allowed them to have biological body mods, we might be able to get a new eye - one which is not vulnerable to Vresch's manipulations.

The Secluded may have some minor boons that could be useful. I doubt it'd be anything to important though.

We've already talked to Remi, and Nihilism Tech has nothing much to offer us (besides a possible romantic option, which won't really be lost if we choose to go elsewhere for now and for our backing.)

It would probably be best if we visit the Neotis Weaponry Association at some point to arm ourselves, but that should probably wait until Vresch gives us some Luxury Tickets so we can actually buy stuff. Otherwise, I don't anticipate it being too useful.

Also, Coralina, your hair looks pretty like it is~

>>38268

>Thaumic

A Thaum is the basic unit of magical strength. It has been universally established as the amount of magic needed to create one small white pigeon or three normal-sized billiard balls.

Thus, discussing something "thaumic" means something magical. Thank you and good night.

Options not listed are inconsequential.

I like your hair as is, Coralina! Although, you looked pretty good with that hairclip before.
Maybe we could just get it cleaned up a little, and then find a nice head accessory to add some colour? Something like another hairclip, or a ribbon, or some forehead goggles or something.

Alternatively...

The ninhilists seem like the easiest choice. but it wouldnt hurt to visit a few of them

>>38250
Well, previous bearers of the Orb have had consistantly fair dealing with Ignometrics.

Might as well check there first.

Arcanitech - Might be a good candidate for support.

Bleeding Hearts - Sounds too wishy-washy. Get on their good side, but not a support candidate.

Church of Life - Another to get on their good side of. Not sure if support candidate or not.

Experientialists - Sounds slightly hedonistic. Be careful. Perhaps get on their good side.

FurReality - ... If this is what I think it is, you might need to watch your back for either more 'feral' sorts, or more amourous sorts. If you get on their good side, though, they'd probably stick with you. Not really your main support, though.

Men's Club - Title says it all. They probably won't listen to you because you are the little girl.

Neotis Weaponry Association - Get on these guy's good side. Perhaps drop 'plans' to make weapon carrying more acceptable. ...but be careful, as suggested.

Nihilism Tech - Remi Visit~! :3 Might get on their good side. Potentially support candidate.

Retirement Association - While you aren't elderly, perhaps if you go and show them some respect, they'd support you. ...but not a backing candidate.

Sorcerer's Guild - This one has promise, considering you're a summoner. Logically, it'd make sense to come from here. Or, you could get their support easily. Get on good terms to learn more magic stuff.

Technotics - Always handy to be friends with research-oriented people. They might be a good one for support.

The Secluded - I'm sure getting Rastin out of power would make them feel more safe. Visit these guys. Get on their good side. Probably not good for main backing

Transcendants - Maybe visit, but follow advice and don't touch anything. Probably not for us, but it'd be good to get on their good side.

I'd reccommend Arcanitech or the Sorcerer's guild for main backing, but getting on as many groups' good sides as you can is probably a good strategy. Only one that might be actively hostile is the Men's Club.

The Furries and the Transhumanists are natural allies, but they've clearly had a falling out since they're separate. I vote we visit them both and combine them into a human enhancement biotech pan-faction. This will give us a rationale for our sudden rise to power, in addition to perhaps giving us "technology" (in the form of biological enhancements and the like) that Vresch cannot manipulate. We would like a new eye, wouldn't we? As well as a base of power we can some day use against Vresch himself.

There is, I grant, the possibility that Vresch can control absolutely everything created by human hands, metal, flesh, or otherwise. In that case, it might be best to go with factions who are trying to become something other than human...

My meager attempt.

Coraline, your hair looked nice. I don't think you should change it.

I say visit the Sorcerer's Guild and the Secluded. They're the lest tech-oriented, and the group furthest from Vresch's reach in theory.

>>38419
Yeah, no need to change it. It's cute.

Regarding backing:

>Arcanitech
Has potential.

>Bleeding Hearts
No good. These guys are the least likely to stage any kind of worthwhile uprising against Rastin, so it wouldn't make much sense.

>Church of Life
I'd be hesitant to associate yourself with any kind of religious organization, personally. Tend to get messy later on.

>Experientialists
The description makes these guys sound rather disorganized.

>FurReality
...

>Men's Club
Unless there's something you're hiding from us, Coralina, this ones a no-go.

>Neotis Weaponry Association
I'm not really sure about this one. Instinct says no.

>Nihilism Tech
It might be nice to check this place out since you have some friends in the establishment, but remember: The goal is to have you REPLACE the leader of the organization.

>Retirement Association
Ahaha!

>Sorcerer's Guild
This is a good one. At least check it out, because this will give you access to what you need to know about magic. In addition, if you want to keep your abilities a secret from the larger population, then these guys are going to be the most likely to recognize that seal over your eye.

>Technotics
Check them out. You don't hecessarily want their backing, but its good to know what they're up to.

>The Secluded
Find out what their about, but do not use them as backing.

>Transcendants
What is this I don't even-

Basically, you're going to want to know what Arcanitech and Technotics are up to, your WANT the resources of the Sorceror's guild, and Nihilism Tech will also be a good one to visit since you already know the head.

>No good. These guys are the least likely to stage any kind of worthwhile uprising against Rastin, so it wouldn't make much sense.
They seem the MOST likely to oppose Rastin to me.

>>38505
Pacifists don't stage successful armed uprisings against tyrannical super-dictators.

>>38551
I thought we were more going for peaceful transfer of power.

I reckon Ignometics is probably a good bet to start out. We know that about 16 years ago they were actively researching magical healing, and they got to analyse Hope's power a little; this means they have a good chance of being able to help us right off the bat with our eye. We might be able to pay our way by allowing analysis of the Orb, and even better we might get some clarification both about what that orange has done to us and by extension the crystal Hope is locked in.

Besides, I want to see how Jay is doing. He seemed like a nice bloke last time.

>>38551
Nobody said they were pacifists. If they're really trying to live up to their ideals they'd be planning to murder Rastin in some fashion or another.

Why does the name Seras Nightsun ring bells for me?

>>38551

>>38341
I actually really like this one.

>>38609
Because you know more about their ideals than "spread peace and harmony," amirite? The very concept of peace doesn't lend itself to violent uprisings, so either they're pacifists, and thus useless, or hypocrites, and thus unstable and hard to take seriously. Kinda like Greenpeace.

>>38561
Behind the scenes, yeah. But I don't really understand what the point of all this would be if publicly Rastin just went out and said "Well, it was fun lording over all of you with my unstoppable army of robots and techno-fuckery. Now I know you all probably hate my guts, what with the whole ruining the global economy and slaughtering anyone who didn't accept my rule, but please try to give a warm welcome to miss Coralina, to whom I will be bestowing my rule."

It just seems disingenuous if a horrible dictator just passes his rule off during the prime of his life. THen again, if a peaceful public transfer of power is indeed what we're going for, then excuse my error. I misunderstood. I had thought the goal was to have no connections between Rastin's rule and Coralina's.

>>38412
Use THIS as your look right now, and through the uprising-

>>38414
-and THIS as your Queen of the World look. You may want to practice the basics of CQC with this look, though.

>>38896
Or maybe they're just practical. Sometimes, the best way to spread peace is to make war on the warmakers. It's not always possible to reach an agreement; some people just don't care enough to be reasoned with.
