I mean at some point given 2020.

If we want more Wolfists and classic conservatives, I'd gladly app as one but only after I know what's gonna happen with Brooky.

I think we need more progressive Dems and Wolfists.

Not an OP but...

First off, that's probably the most sexually attractive character model so far ngl

Secondly, Michigan isn't exactly the most libertarian state.

Thirdly, Vohoffsky would like to meet with Governor Collins once he's accepted.


I live in Michigan and like almost every person in the rural and suburban area is libertarian.

Areas are aberrations. The Libertarian Party did...average iirc. I mean, it's like being a black Democrat Senator relying on only minority votes in Alabama. You can't win with your bloc when there's a much bigger, dominant bloc. It could work, though.

We have waaaay too many progressive Dems. More moderate Dems, more traditional conservative and Wolfist Republicans.

Long story short: Your character that you applied is on the levels of being a "hot-shot".

Quote of the Week: "A NEW STORY ON WRITING THREAD FOR HALLOWEEN!! MYSTERY MINE AVAILABLE NOW!"

RPs I do
- How do you do fellow kids? You want to see something violent? - Artemis: Deimos Trafficking League (Horror/Mature)
- Descend into the forgotten tourist traps of Florida on this transgressive RP! - The Community (Mature/Black Comedy/Slice-of-Life)

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 guess that's fair. Tbf though GOP candidates in MI have always been unpopular, whether they got elected or not.

Congressman could work, if you fixed the bio a bit. Put him a libertarian area and you'll have yourself a working character that can work with the Liberty Front!

Also, imo, we've got enough Republican Governors, like there's a Republican in North Carolina, and a Dem in Florida, there shouldn't be anymore swapping around of states. This character could just as easily be modulated to fit as the Republican of Indiana or Ohio.

I don't live stateside, I genuinely wanna know what's wrong w Gretchen, my wine-mumma trope is a litmus test for any female character I write.

Wait till I write a Republican Congresswoman from Kansas who owns a winery.

A Republican Governor of Iowa, South Carolina and the one in NH are all figures I'm surprised haven't been created.
