Me? Nah. The extent of my social talent is being so bad at hiding my thoughts that anybody who reads my intentions is effected as if I had just aced an instill intimacy of trusting me.If you want to try and convince a very anti-Realm, anti-Dynast and pro-Solar populace to evacuate in the face of potential liberation, be my guest.
Fel would stand with her. While he hasn't the same ingrained hatred as Xandra, he is very much zealous of his families duty to much the same effect.Well, it would be just about as hard to convince Xandra to side with the Anathema and leave the Realm. She despises the Lunars, especially after one killed her uncle and father in front of her.
We could start by doing both. Building up our legion and going from House to House in to increase our support. Not only getting them to contribute to war against the anathema, but increasing our standing with them. By acting as a legion independent of the houses, we could maybe bypass some of the house rivalries, playing on their hatred for other Houses. As an independent group might be a better option for any house than any of those they despise to take over emergency leadership. Amd from there we seize power.Ditto Psychie and D. Rex . I need to add it to his sheet, but with a father having died to the Battle of Futile Blood, I'd see Manato more likely to join the Seventh Legion than join a Solar. Besides, why play DB's to be second fiddle to Solar NPCs? That sounds like it would defeat the point.
I've been thinking if we somehow make this work, we'd either start building our own Legion, building an independent nation, or vying for power on the home front to steer the ship on a course that's not the mouth of Oblivion.
That's largely what I was thinking as well, in terms of logic. Plus there's that Realm garrison at the orichalcum mine that Rykon wants to introduce.The city walls, siege weapons and the warstrider we have are all good force multipliers, so if we have the city watch along with a few thousand mercs, we could pull it off.
Do you worst, boss, I'm not scared of you. Half a dozen random exalts? Pttah! I spit at their feet! That is almost one for each of us.Also everyone, while I have gone on about this being somewhat of a no-win scenario for you, bear in mind that not all of the Exalts Kirito saw at the head of the army will necessarily be Solars. Also, Manato and Harun did plan to get in contact with a number of pro-Immaculate mercenary groups within the area, and the handbook does list a "mercenary army" as being a Size 4 battle group/several hundred strong, so two of those could easily form a Size 5 group (over a thousand). Depending on how things go, you may be able to get a few thousand more fighters on your side.
We can do that if we really want to commit to this fight, but in character I'm seeing Manato have doubts on whether he's ok with the group bleeding for Satori or house Ragara. "What's in it for us" while selfish, seems pretty valid given how outright hated and seemingly worthless the current administration is.
If not now, he'd ask the group in private after wards of what we want to make of Kandara's fate after the battle. Leaving Satori in power is pretty cruel at her current rate.
And here I was being nice and not asking Jaydude outright if I could play as Hazel as an npc celestial level sorceress and screw all of you over with the manic cat girl.You are a troublemaker, trying to make up PCs to mess with other PCs. Evil man.
I like that about you.

Just an idle thought... Given the high unwinnability factor of this campaign...
What are you plans if one of us dies, as just may happen? Do we write ourselves up a new Dynast come to give aid? Or maybe write up an anathema and fight against the remaining PCs just to mess with them, until we all fall and continue the rampage against the realm as the other side?
I'll do the fun thing of bringing in a character related to the deceased character and have them swear vengeanceI'll let you create new Dynast characters should your current one die.
Go for it.I'll do the fun thing of bringing in a character related to the deceased character and have them swear vengeance
