Campaign Plotting! -
Ozymandias Dempsey - August 24, 2023
If you haven't heard, Oz is running for Minister. If you're curious,
here's a summary of his political stances.
I have a few needs...
— a
campaign manager. Requirements: male, generally politically aligned, with a high tolerance for Oz's bullshit. Alternatively, amused by this entire thing and happy to be the conductor of the Hot Mess Express for their own entertainment.
— Looking for
closed door conversation threads of all varieties! Whether they go well or go poorly, whether alliances are formed or bridges are burned, I am very much here for them all. Anyone in a position of authority (Ministry Dept/Division Heads, influential importers/exporters, ambassadors/liaisons, hospital leadership, the wives/eldest children of the above if they're not available, you get the idea) is fair game. Oz's goals broadly are to earn public endorsements, what you want in exchange is up to you!
— also desperately want people to take any of his current
open threads surrounding the campaign. If you like one of them but the date/place doesn't work for you just hit me up because it's probably flexible.
— I don't 100% know what Oz's political opinions are on a lot of issues (or what he's willing to express, anyway) so if you have a character who cares deeply about some niche issue and would want to press candidates for their opinions I am interesting in threading that and having his opinions decided IC!
I'm also interested in 1) dirt getting spread about Oz (true or not) and 2) things his family members have said being used against him, but we've got some time to get there xD

Hello, here are tete-a-tetes Oz is interested in having at some point during the campaign. I'm pinging relevant parties and I would like to know which of these categories you fall into:
— IC my character would accept an invitation like this & OOC I am interested in threading it;
— IC my character would accept; OOC I don't want a thread but we can chat about how it went and it can be referenced as having happened IC;
— IC my character would accept but OOC I don't have the bandwidth to even think about this so please pretend there was some good reason for it to have never happened;
— IC my character would REFUSE and OOC I'm interested in letters to that effect;
— IC my character would REFUSE and OOC I have no interest in a letter.
Justin Ross - private dinner somewhere (optionally with wives) where Oz tries to get your endorsement, probably in late September/early October.
A dinner with
Roman Crouch &
Charles Macmillan where Oz wants to hear the good/bad/ugly of how the office was run under Ross & tries to tactfully skirt the whole you're-both-running-or-helping-someone-run issue xD
Murdock Greyback - Atlantis gentleman's club? He wants your opinions on Maxime specifically, can be a casual interaction since we've talked about them being friends previously
Aldous Crouch is coming to the ballet as discussed >D
A small dinner party for the Hogwarts Heads of House, on a weekend sometime late in September so they can step away from school - Phineas +
Meserimus Valenduris,
Mason Skeeter,
Basil Foxwood, the NPC Head of Gryffindor (could swing a group thread here if there's any interest, or a 1-on-1 thread during the dinner party if there's interest, or nothing lol)
[If your character didn't make the list but they're in a position where they WANT a tete-a-tete I'm very amenable to those also <3]

IC, he would accept and I would love a thread. Though Roman knows a loooooot more about politics than I do so I'mma be winging this like I do everything else. xD

HELLO! I am going to be writing an article about Oz's platform in the next day or so.
If anyone wants to endorse him this would be a convenient time/place to do it so I can mention it in the article :] This is not me begging for endorsements, just a casual shout that if you want to endorse but don't want to write a whole article about it or w/e then let me know now and you won't have to. :]
