My overall account that I use for P2TM and even for international roleplaying! MNM is a mysterious and extremely dangerous dictatorship filled with supernatural oddities, demons, militarized soldiers everywhere, and a misanthropic nihilistic dictator who doesn't give a damn. It's basically if the SCP Foundation got mixed with 1984.

I mean idk if it'll cost Murphy anything, it's just that part of the appeal was that he's running a campaign based on morals. that disappears when he just shrugs off human rights abusers.

This is the biggest issue here. Being non-interventionist is one thing, acting so uncaring about human rights abuse is another.

Dayton is just going to let Murphy and Westra kill each other, she already made sure Westra can't move fully into a different lane.

That’s why Velez is too

I have been ordered only to attack if I hade to for Velez, Westra, and Spellman.

Obviously Westra was moving way too close to Dayton's lane so I had to do something.

I believe Dayton's reticence to attack Veléz (assuming Sarenium instructed Kelvi on this basis) is because Simone had told Dayton not to attack Veléz (just as I'm reasonably sure she told Veléz not to attack Dayton).

I could have slammed Velez on that if not for the instructions.
