Voting Has Begun

Autumn 70, 572



This is a vital time for Puddleby. A formidable new tribe of t'rool'kin has been discovered to our southeast, Dar'shak interference has made ethereal disturbances commonplace, and our neglected little town lies in near shambles. The feast of T'ssrin draws near, and our joyous festivities are sure to be accompanied by their companion necromantic troubles. Perhaps most importantly of all, though, the time has come to cast your ballots for the office of Fen President.



It has been a long and difficult race, and a number of unexpected difficulties have marred a campaign trail that should by all rights have been straightforward and clean. We Largocrats have been bombarded by attacks from the Stylunk campaign, incompetence by the Kallisto campaign, and endless sunstones from Inu Teisei. We've stood strong against Stinkfist's threats and attempts at extortion, against the Dar'shak menace, and against the mire of disinformation spread by our foes.



Our time will come, but only if you make it. Cast your ballot for me today. Get your friends, your enemies, your clanmates, your library dwelling "cousins" to vote now, and I will ensure that tomorrow is better for all of us. Especially you.

Yours in good faith and in good taste,
--Largo

An Excellent Poster

Autumn 29, 572

Kisa has created a splendid pro-Largo poster, as you can see below. I love portraits of myself, and it's truly an honor to have one drawn by the marvelous Kisa. You can view the rest of her magnificent work here.



Thank you, Kisa!

Largo's Triumphant Return

Summer 54, 572



As some of you may well know, I've finally staged my return to Puddleby and have announced my candidacy for Fen President. My campaign is already well underway, and I would like to state on behalf of the Largocracy that we are delighted to be the ones to pull this fine town out of its slump. The administration preceding this election has proven itself simply shameful in a number of ways. You know and trust me. I've fought bravely against the Dar'shak, helped head a prosperous government with Manx, and done immeasurable good for the little penal colony that we call home. My character and accomplishments speak loudly. As your President, I will work my hardest to right the countless wrongs of the Odessian administration and give you the government that you deserve.



Of course, it's not just about the Presidency. Behind every good leader is a crack team of brilliant advisors. This is why I've already begun to amass my cabinet - an unparalleled team of trustworthy, competent experts. Afrit will head up the Department of Detha, Rakshasa my personal bodyguards, and Hunter will hold the prestigious "Fen Treasurer" position. Althea and Relkin, both of whom have already proven themselves to me time and time again, will reprise their respective roles as my campaign manager and running mate. Thorgal, the bold Zo Champion that you've come to know and trust has been selected to serve as Secretary of Pastries.



Naturally, this momentous campaign has received its share of press. I've been featured on Thoomcare a few times, and OWE news once. Hoggle, of the Sticklord News Network, has even crafted a stunning visionstone in my honor. I encourage you to read up on the campaign, and to keep in mind that the outcome of a Fen Election has never before dictated our fates so plainly. Vote prosperity. Vote fashion. Vote for a better tomorrow. Vote Largo.

Ever a humble servant to my public,
--Largo
