Chosen and You
Know Your Enemies
Chosen are large rat like humanoids. They are usually easily recognizable by the fact that they are giant rats whom are capable of walking on their hind legs. They have rock solid skin that can only be pierced by certain types of metal and magically enhanced weapons.
Be aware that Chosen have a tendency to carry many different forms of throw able weapons. The most common of these weapons are incendry powder, caltrops and choking powder. All of which have the capability to inflict some serious injuries upon their victims.
The Encounter
So you find yourself running into some Chosen. What do you do? Do you risk fighting or do you flee and report it to the local authorities. This all depends on the situation, how well equipped you are and how skilled you are in combat.
If there are several of them and you are just one or two, its best you retreat unless you are very competent and have effective weaponry/spells to deal with the threat. If for a moment you feel you cannot handle them, fleeing is most definitely the best option.
But remember NEVER leave a band of chosen in Upper or Lower Sanctuary without reporting it.
Combating Chosen
What makes a Chosen a dangerous foe is its resistant to harm skin. Sometimes it can seem almost impossible to harm them. However you will find that the use of weapons made of silver regardless of size can cause serious harm to such creatures.
So should you have any good silverware you never use, perhaps you ought to consider having it melted down for the creation of a dagger, an axe or some other form of weaponry in order to keep your loved ones safe.
Alternatively keeping a trinket for blessing a weapon or enhancing it with magical abilities is also very effective against such creatures but the effect is temporary unlike that of silver.
Laws
As of yet I have seen no laws to protect you decent folk from the vile chosen or any other form of Lycanthropy. Leaving them alone for so long is what caused them to attack us not so long ago. I urge you citizens to demand from your future councilors a plan of action concerning this great threat.
Are we going to leave them alone and only fight them when they bother us like those before us? Are we going to allow them to destroy the families of our future generations with yet another attack when they finally find an excuse to strike again?
Urge the council to take some real action against these chosen, instate laws regarding consorting with such creatures, urge the council to take arms against such creatures. As far as I know the chosen are only combated when they are an imminent threat.
The Vote
When you’re deciding who to vote for, think about your children, your friends and/or your family here in Sanctuary. Do you want to lose them to yet another attack coordinated with the chosen? Or do you want to feel safe in the knowledge that in a small way you contributed to help keep them safe from this menace.
I urge you the voter to make sure your candidate has a clear plan of action to deal with the chosen menace.
