Your Governing Party of Zormite, and a Decree.
 
My friends and Zyrians.

After a period of deliberation, the governing body of Zormite has been appointed. Your rulers and leaders are as follows.

Archon Matthew White, Ruler of the republic of Zormite, and her territories, defender of the Nation.

Delegate Zoogi Zerako
, leader of the institution, seer of all affairs concerning the commonwealth of Zormite.

Consul Fitzwilliam Vimes
, blood relative of the leading family of Zormite, figurehead and embodiment of the Royalty and Fealty of Zyrians everywhere.


And now for your military leaders, defenders of the Nation of Zormite.


Pater Vrael Loxeus
, leader and soldier of the Magical Forces, bringer of the wrath of the seas.

Zormitus Chaos White, and Zormitus Kargan Omarka, leaders of the Royal Naval forces of Zormite, swimmers of the land, and fear of the deeps.

Terrangus Ace Mythos, mighty warrior of Zormites Physical Forces, render of limbs, terror of the ground and air.


These will be your governing party.


Furthermore. I have re-evaluated any previously existing "blacklists" of Zormite, and repealed many of the people who have been so listed. I am a firm believer in peoples' ability to change, for the better, or worse. People who were previously blacklisted have been granted "second chances". That is, they will be treated just like everyone else until such time as they prove themselves worthy of such a blacklist.

Long live the Republic!

Sorry I was unclear, "Embodiment of the (now defunct) Royalty."

Kind of like Great Britain.

In any case, I will not hear any more complaints about anyone in the kingdom, which was something that tore the previous leader's rule to agony. The people in my nation have not done anything evil since they became Zormites. If they do, they will no longer be Zormites, bottom line. I am being perfectly reasonable. Thank you :)

Also Googi make sure I didn't spell anyone's names wrong.

Kind of like Great Britain in the sense that its monarchy is defunct, yet it has a parliament.

The definition of a republic isn't a powerless royalty, it's a nonexistant royalty.

Matthew White 02-06-2006 09:15 AM

The family still exists. Yet in this instance they have even less power than in Britain. None, in fact.

It is such a shame that stating "I am being perfectly reasonable." does not make it truth.

Someone in your kingdom will invariably cause some sort of trouble when you are not around. How do you intend to deal with this?

Like that, I presume.

Its merely a symbol to the British people.

Except that how much power they have is totally irrelevant to whether or not a government system is a republic.

What happened to Zormites having Z's in their names.. like Zoogi?

The leader of their monarchist republic (bwahha) should at least follow by these rules :-P

From what I've heard, people who's names begin with Z are born as Zormites and are of the fish race. People who are adopted into the Kingdom and are not fish have no reason to be required to change their name.

Matthew White 02-06-2006 10:05 PM

Okie is right about the fish names. If I was Zatthew Zhite or something, I would be a fish. I'm not, thus I'm not.

Also, to Lance, how will I not hear complaints? There are infinite ways to meet me. I have a work email, a home email, a school email, all of which are listed here, if they're not, I'll add them. I have the forums, I'm on graal all the time, I will soon have a Blackberry as well, for pete's sake I have a free work phone number if you're really desperate to contact me. I will hear complaints, and as Draenin says, I will deal with them harshly.

Finally, with reference to the monarchy. It is symbolic, only. In the same way that Canada is a market-socialist Republic of Provinces, NOT a constitutional Monarchy as some would argue, I will be ruling in that manner. Stephen is blood royalty, and is only symbolic of the way Zormite once was. When he croaks, his son/daughter will be, etc.

OasaTor_PK 02-06-2006 10:32 PM

How weird, no shots at me? Perhaps I have gained some respect as being such a powerful magician? Heh.

Except that Canada is a constitutional monarchy. If you're going to insist on advertising that Zormite is a republic in our tags, then at least make sure you know what a republic is first :\

GoZelda 02-06-2006 11:24 PM

So... are the fish people just gonna take this?

ChaosXxX 02-07-2006 12:14 AM

Oasa Your listed there.

OasaTor_PK 02-07-2006 01:55 AM

Mech, the leader of the army? Matthew, you disapoint me. Picking me was a tough decision, but MECH? MECH OF ALL PEOPLE..

Haha, I sent out for his death, and he got killed, gets mad and abuses his rights by removing the Pater. Again, good choice Matthew.

** He Re-added me. :]
Hes also sucking up now.

Well, I'm specifically referring to where you said:

So...how about you tell me?

Oppression of their kind, a human king (right after the FISH people freed Zormite), another change, no admission of their superiority over humans etc.

So Zormites are somehow obligated to be anti-human?

No, I always thought Zormites were supposed to think they're superior as a race to humans.

Matthew White 02-08-2006 09:17 PM

Maybe that was just you ;)

Obviously each individual character may or may not think that.
