been passed around, please tell.
It's the Cermak Memorial Society, a policlub based on protesting the
treatment the city of Chicago and environs have received by the UCAS.
Currently, its made up entirely of mundanes, to whom the idea of "insect
spirits" seems completely inane (and reeks of conspiracy: what *really*
happened in Chi-Town? The thought that the UCAS is behind some
mutagenic virus 'accidentally' released into Chicago is likely to crop
up, sooner or later.) Presently it seeks to deliver relief goods into
Chicago and
remove "hostages" out; again, it, like most of the public, is blissfully
unaware of the incredible dangers that might involve.
The policlub is founded and funded by John DiGreene, a political hack
from back in Governor Schultz' day. It's a chance for him to gain some
ground in the Seattle political arena; he's also got family in Chicago.
There are only a few other players in the policlub right now; DiGreene's
trying to flesh it out to cover all the demographic bases (he needs
serious help with the NAN and Elves...) The policlub should also help
to
reflect how various other nations feel toward the Chicago incident; I'd
imagine the CAS is chuckling to itself, while formally protesting the
release of a nuclear weapon.
If this has already been touched on, I'll relent and buy the Bug City
sourcebook (if/when I find it....) Otherwise, I'd appreciate a little
boosterism; I'm working on my own plotline touching on it. Comments,
critique and questions certainly welcome.
