We could be king, Clara the Queen, Matthias as law enforcement. We need to figure out how John and the tiger are getting out. Or is John the tiger?

[King Zultan]

Darn people wanting to ruin things by becoming The Commie Lord.

[Ultimuh]

Not trying to ruin anything. Just offering an interesting direction this could go in.

[King Zultan]

I was talking about the wanting to become communist, if we decide to become king I think we should do the whole dictatorship where you ether embrace our friendship or die.

[Anonylemon]

So fun fact.
In DF, when a person becomes a necromancer, they automatically gain a personality shift that increases their ANXIETY_PROPENSITY and decreases their TRUST.  Presumably, this makes them better at pulling off villainous subterfuge and taking over positions of power.
All kobolds naturally have high ANXIETY_PROPENSITY and low TRUST.  (Also high ACTIVITY_LEVEL and GREED.)
This means that, logically, kobolds SHOULD be the ultimate villains and should easily rise to positions of power, and the only thing that stops them from doing so is their inability to speak.
Actually according to my experiments with talking kobolds this does not happen, and I have been unable to figure out what effects, if any, these personality traits have on the behavior of necromancers in worldgen.  But it sounds like it should be true, so let's pretend it is.

Let's gain the King's trust, demonstrating our powers to him but also swearing loyalty, thereby becoming his right-hand man dwarf kobold. That will put us in the perfect position to manipulate him toward our own ends, and seems easier than convincing the entire dwarven civilization to accept a kobold as their ruler.

Take all of my +1's

+1 Cancel previous plans

+1, but lets see what our comrades think of doing so first?

+1, my vote may change based off of what our companions think

I don’t really want koboi to become an evil king but chances are we’ll be a temporary good king until the rebels can vote a new king into power. Perhaps we can use our Kobold King powers to help a Kea elsewhere.

[Ultimuh]

Perhaps we can use our Kobold King powers to help a Kea elsewhere.

Remember the last time we encountered a Kea? That didn't exactly turn out well, not for the Kea.

And what's another word for friends, especially companions in an adventure? Comrades!
It all works out.

[Dunamisdeos]

The friendship kobold should not become an evil villian king, or any kind of despot thereof.

My vote is cast :3

[Ultimuh]

Ah well.. It was an interesting idea while it lasted.

[IndigoFenix]

I didn't mean actually becoming king.
I was thinking more like a vizier or advisor to the current king, who may or may not be evil.

[MadMonkey]

We should dodge roll into the arena and make a huge dramatic return in front of the populace, proclaim ourselves as some kind of incredible resurrected demigod figure returned from death via the power of the gods, and then denounce the corrupt, unworthy king in favor of the chosen resistance. Be sure to use our incredible gift at speech giving!

Maybe killing the king isn't the best option. Would you take the thrown for yourself? A kobold ruling the dwarves with the power of blood?



No! You are a champion of friendship!

You modify your toga and repurpose the band as a belt!



What should you say in your speech

[King Zultan]

FUCK YOU I'M KING NOW!

SING THE FUN SONG!

[coop]

Sing:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire dwarven race

[Naturegirl1999]

FUCK YOU I'M KING NOW!

SING THE FUN SONG!

F is for friends who do stuff together, U is for you (pint at the king) and me, N is for no more battles, so that less people die

[Superdorf]

Sure, do the "Fun Song"-- but don't sing it. Shout it. Let its words ring out strong and clear, resounding through the stands of this subterranean Colosseum!

Having done this, declare ourself and our purpose here.
