A poster on the northern exterior wall of the Rock Bottom Inn reads:
Would you feel better knowing that someone elected by the citizens of Sanctuary rather than one appointed by a city official is personally auditing our city for corruption?
Have you ever felt that on small instances certain authorities have overstepped their boundaries or abused their power for personal gain?
Lets not forget the actions of our late sheriff.
Lets demand that we are allowed to appoint our own official who will from now on hear the complaints of the average citizen and investigate to be sure that acts of corruption do not go unnoticed again.
This first petition is to request that the council agree to allow us to have an election wherein mayor approved candidates campaign for us to decide which of them is most fit to confidentially see into the affairs of our authorities to make sure that corruption will not spread among our leaders again. This person should -not- be a member of any other official organization to ensure that he is a neutral auditor overseeing the security measures taking place.
This second petition is to request that the council should see to mandating tests on our officials for the state of Illithid mind control. It is known that some of these threats have occured in the past and to have them applied against our leaders could mean the disintegration of our government and way of life as we know it.
WHEREAS, a long history of corruption within the city Watch from beholder cults, to torture, to implication in slave rings has undermined confidence within the citizenry body to the ability of security agents to police their own,WHEREAS, the Mayor is entrusted with overseeing the people's security but has likewise historically lacked the ability to prevent corruption within security agencies and such agencies historically have policed their own bodies necessitating a loss of faith from citizens in their integrity,
WHEREAS, this democratic city puts its greatest trust in the personage of elected officials with an understanding that those with the least ties to any security agency are best in a position to neutrally oversee it,
DECREED, that the citizens undersigned request that the Mayor opens elections for an independent Auditor, whose election is confirmed only by Mayoral approval, who is charged with investigating citizen's allegations of corruption in addition to regular internal audits of records within security Agencies such as the Spellguard, Seekers, and Watch with the power to make recommendations to the Mayor who then may determine the implementation of corrective measures.
WHEREAS, Illthids are known to be a dangerous threat to our safety frequently implanting honest citizens with dangerous devices that control their actions and steal their free will,WHEREAS, our civilian bureaucracy both holds great power within the city and thereby pose a special risk should illithids implant these officials,
DECREED, the undersigned request that this city shall commence a program of regular searches for illithid implants and other potential forms of mind control utilizing highly efficient and powerful applications of divination magic.
