The Opinions on National Leaders (OOC)

Chronosia

We've each encountered characters within the gestalt reality that is NS, characters whom we might love or loathe. Those that stand out, become part of our own plots and interactions, we draw our opinions of them and integrate them into our IC responses to them.

Here, now, you are being given a chance to speak as you would of them. The proud warriors, the gallant leaders, the heinous villains, all are nothing without the opinion, fear and love of their peers. How would your chosen be viewed by those of another nation? How would good view evil, or how would others view those who claim to hold their own views?

Here, you may find out. All I ask is that opinions be of an IC nature, a character within your nation speaking of someone elses. Plus it makes good if you ever want to have quotes to throw around ;) :)

Well, its an OOC idea, as no one is actually RPing. And theres also alot of discussion, but the quotes will be as though IC ^^

So ultimately it works.

The thoughts of Prime Minister Sir Phillip J. Sinclair regarding the leader of Skgorria:

Damn it, that Skgorrian leader scares me. Between his imposing physique, hordes of Nazi henchman, and desire to purge every single "inferior" race from the planet, they make me want to soil my pants. Better go change them.

"For supporting them verbally. They attacked me for nothing more than the fact I expressed my verbal support for the CA. Not even financial support, not military support. They attacked me for nothing more than that.
They forced me into war, invaded my hometown, and will never shut up about their damn imperialist influences. I have no goals other than to solve the Muslim problem and make my country wealthy. That is why I have stayed out of the lives of my people. That is why I let my people live their lives, free from the restrictions of your typical thug.
But they, those Hatarian bastards, wish to rule the world. They wish to oppress us, to make the world their slaves. And it is for that reason that I will do anything to oppose the bastards of Hataria- even ally myself with Communists and Muslims."

on Corporate control and their CEOs:

" This world has much to offer those who are willing to put forth the effort and take what tey desire. For one person can rally a nation for a cause, so can one man rally his employees to produce weapon that can kill on massive scales and allow their Glorious CEO to take what he desires. And fro what he takes he makes more, and takes more then he got before. Like a domino effect nation after nation fall to us. We corporations strive well to our peak and the pathetic people who command them faulter and fall. Leaving them open to have mass refunds of Ammunition that the people bought with the lives of their brave yet stupid warriors as the corporation moved through their lands. We are the True Corporation. No others will stand as long, and soon everyone will feel the Bloodsoaked metal heel of the SF's Jackboot. Soon all will hear them as they march through your cities and take what I desire!"

Emperor Micah I on the Prime Minister, Crown Prince, and Prince:

"He seems like an okay chap, yet I must remain vigilant. I've taken a lot of power from him. If I die, then Houghton will become Emperor. And that would spell death for many. He is an incompetant little fool, and Parliament would be wise to make Starrus Crown Prince. Ah, Starrus. So much better the Houghton. He was born with all of the skills of Prime Minister Bellcrest, and all of the formality of myself."

“How much ammo do you have left?” he called.

“I am disbanding the OZ organization,” said Treize. “And as of tomorrow, at about this time, I will be crowned Emperor Treize Kushrenada I.”

“Impossible!” shouted General Nai’dine, outraged. The OZ officers began yelling at Treize, hardly noticing as white armored figures entered the room behind them.

“Gentlemen I can understand your feelings, however I have decided that you are no longer of use to me. I thank you for your cooperation,” said Treize.

The OZ offices finally heard the shambling footsteps behind them and turned to see a squad of white armored stormtroopers standing there with their blaster rifles leveled and ready for use. None of them made a sound.

“Sergeant, escort these men from the room please,” ordered Treize. “See to it that they are taken care of.”

“Yes my lord,” said the stormtrooper sergeant. He motioned with his rifle and his men pushed the OZ officers out of their seats. General Nai’dine was speechless as they hustled him from his chair.

“You can’t do this!” called one officer. “We fought for you!”

“And now your services are no longer needed,” replied Treize.

"Now, I've had personal experiance at being a military dictator and met plenty of other autocratic rulers, more than a few of whom had the supernatural to play with, but de Drakan will never become just one among many. That's the thing, he's playing an entirely differant game. Other epic plans have pawns. Remiel makes pawns out of epic plans. He outthinks the rest of the human race to such a great extent that he can no longer be considered part of it.

"And the fact that he could strangle you to death with your own entrails without moving is pretty impressive."

-Schnapsemarschall Otto Morlock on Remiel de Drakan-

"Daniel Masaki is one of those people who, you know, like the ones you meet in school, you'd hate his guts if he wasn't such a likable guy. Of course he's very nieve. It's practically impossible to even talk to someone like him, who think good and evil actually exist."

On Remiel de Drakan:

"What do I have to say about my beloved Warmaster? Now here is a true leader of power (no offense master). I have heard of his remarkable tale of how he made his painful recovery of returning from the dead. A tale which I truly admire his faith in Chaos. Quite the heart warming man really. He's not as bad as many of his enemies think he is once you get past the possible threat of him killing you on site if he's having a bad mood," Aelikes paused for a few moments.

On Daniel Masaki:
"Masaki," the Kirtir Dark Lord spat, "has been a troublesome nuisance for the Huntarians ever since my apprentice was sent to the Coredian Chonoskimmer project some years ago to assassinate Doctor Wignum. I find his presence quite annoying, and any mention of him posses threat to my mental stability. His ability to recreate clones of himself has gotten quite annoying on the Galacitc Empire's side of things, and I look forward to ending his spree in person," The image of Aelikes glared for a few moments

"I have one thing to say about him though: He IS quite the warrior. He has anger, and hate. It would be interesting to see what would become of him should he follow his true destiny," Aelikes paused for a few moments, stood up again, and fixed his robes making them straight.

"Now that the recording is done, lets go forth with our assassination plans on Daniel Masaki. Lieutenant, please send a message to the Dark Council of the meeting to take place soon at 08..."

"Uh sir... We're still recording. See the little red light over here? Once it goes off..." A mistake. Aelikes stared in space, for a few moments while the Lieutenant rambled on. The Lieutenant realizes the Dark Lord's gaze and gulps.

"If it's still recording Lieutenant..." Aelikes picked up a sacrificial knife (http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a172/Huntaer/Knife.jpg) which he held in a case on his desk, "then perhaps a recording of your incompetence is in order," at that, the knife was sent behind the recording camera. *Insert lout thump and painful moaning*" Focus goes in circles, zooms out of focus for a few moments, and eventually falls towards the floor briefly catching a glimpse of Aelikes stabbing the boy repeatedly. Camera lands on the ground, focusing into a bloodied Lieutenants face. A set of black boots walked by followed by a black cape. Static occurs on screen and fades to black.

"Such Filth, daring to exist. I've watched for countless eons behind the scenes, as they rail against cycles of Violence and hatred, only to go on to perpetuate those same cycles of Violence and hatred themselves. Opressing their opressors, claiming to have the high Moral right to do so, when in fact niether of them are any better than the other to begin with. Then there's the wishes. Wishing this person would just go away, wishing that person had never bothered them. Know it or not, like it or not, they all come crying to me to fix their problems. Yet why should I, when they themselves are guilty of the same things they profess to hate, to be better than? All are Guilty of Existing. I will stop it, and destroy them all, Every man, woman, and child, every God, Goddess, and Godlet, all of it, and only when the worlds are bathed in the flames of purest hatred, will they come to understand why they must be destroyed, even as I destroy them in the process. Geheh, Cry as they might, try as they will, none of them understand. Not even The Omnisource itself can stop me, its the guiltiest one of all, Guilty of forcing me to exist against my will." Kajeenith, on everyone, and everything that exists, fuming pure hatred, without real logic or reason.

^_______^ Thanks! If I had RPed with you, I'd make a comment, but I haven't gotten around to it sadly. Now on to some quotaciousness. Let's see if I can dust off my FT characters some.

------------------------

"Tsu'chin.... I've always wondered just how much you knew about that first meeting. How many of my tests and double blinds you could simply see through. How much of my thoughts were made instantly apparent to you. I even wonder how much you knew about what those damn fools were cooking up in Tar'en. You know, there was so much that we could have accomplished between our nations, if the Eshirian Sovereignty hadn't fallen. And so much was accomplished, only to be torn down by that abomination and my little war.

But at the end of the day, I can look in the mirror and honestly say that I have only one question. Did you make it through? Of the trillions that died, were you one of the survivors? I will probably never know. But the mere hope is enough."
-Excerpt from the Diary of John Archer, ex-No Endorse Minister of Foreign Affairs, reprinted with permission from BioNet, Inc. (Cookie to anyone besides Huntaer who understands this one :P)

------------------------

"Lord Remiel.... where to begin? There is nothing to say but this: if you ever get the chance to read this, you twisted creature, know that I have never met anyone who I respect more. You have defied logic and rent the minds of the greatest of men into nothing. Damn you and all you represent, but always fear you."

Lastly, some MT Amner action:

"There are men, and then there is that Questarian King Richard VI. He is a gentleman and a scholar, but one of the most womanizing creatures I've ever encountered. I can only hope that I am given the pleasure of going with him to do what they call 'bar-hopping' on at least one occasion. Anything less would simply be indecorous."
