News Anchor Bob Costa Rica: "Ah good days candidates. If you are standing here on this stage then you have either gained enough notoriety, bribed enough people, or blackmailed enough voters to get here. Either way, you have earned in the full capacity of the word, enough power to have made it to this stage today. I'm Bob Costa Rica, and together with my co-host, Dillarald Clumpton, I am in charge of reporting the events of the election to be Supreme Dictator for Life 2016. To start the night off, let me introduce our current convicts... I mean candidates.
First up we have Nix the Everchosen. I don't know if he's religious or was just raised by animals but in any case, should he be elected we will all be forced to walk around like he does. Of course, it won't be too bad since no matter who wins we'll be dead soon enough.
Next we have Gothang Wup the Gloriously Spiteful. He supports bringing back various methods of torch-our but don't worry, by the time this election is over you'll be brainwashed so much that you'll enjoy every minute of it. If you don't you will naturally needed to be re-educated.
Moving on along we have Sikhateri the Everburning. Known for his fiery rhetoric, Sikhateri finds that the best solution to solve life problems is to burn it with fire. Indeed, Sikhateri is best known for his advocation for, and I quote, "Disco Inferno".
In case flames aren't your forte, we have an ok candidate to fit your needs. Next up we have Brain the Okayish. He advocates making things kinda work out as long as it isn't a complete failure. He is probably the most optimistic of the candidates we have here.
Appealing to the Dwarven electorate we have Aphindwarf The Bearded. Apjindwarf has proposed a controversial but promising bill to increase research on the most noble part of the dwarven body, the beard. This is a hairy subject but depending how this goes we will probably see some close shaves.
Last and probably not least, we have LERIN THE TYRANT! I've been told by him to say that he is the absolutely bestest and biglyest candidate and if I say anything different today that I will be the first person disappeared when his regime takes over.
That concludes my introduction of all the candidates. Now we take a 5 minute commercial break while you candidates start talking to each other.
[5 Minutes Later]Welcome back to the opening ceremonies of the campaign to elect the Supreme Dictcampaignator for life. I'm Bob Costa Rica and now its time for me to tell you how this election works.
To start all of you start with 0 electoral votes. Your goal is to reach 271 electoral votes. There are several ways you can gain electoral votes.
To start, if you successfully assassinate a candidate (or depending on the roles his staff) you get some of his electoral votes. However, this is risky as if you lose, he steals some of your electoral votes due to public outrage.
A similar process happens within debates between candidates except that the loser doesn't end up dead most of the time.
On your turn you can also campaign. While campaigning it is highly recommended to write a speech or even just a small statement to stand in for a stop on your campaign. As Bob Costa Rica I have full authority to give you bonuses, whether it be a bonus to rolls or an improved campaigning power. You can even get permanent bonuses to your main stats if you make a good enough speech.
Last but not least you can dig dirt up on your opponents. If you take this action then you must state which candidate you think had a scandal. based on the die roll scandals can emerge that can effect either only that candidate, only yourself, or if you crit succeed, multiple other candidates. If you roll a 5 on 1d10, both you and the candidate you mention get scandalized. If a scandal emerges about a candidate, they will lose electoral votes based on a die roll. (Minimum votes = 0)
To Conclude, let me give you 1 last peace of advice, It takes 271 votes to win but only 1 dagger to lose.
