In the times of elections, it's especially important to have all the facts straight before making your vote. In the interests of citizens being able to make educated decisions on who to vote for this election, the Watch provides this information about one of the council Candidates: Proclaimed Noble Dungal Toboerski.
In the beginning of this recent crisis, Dungal Toboerski was seen in the streets of Lower alongside the watch, slaying citizens indiscriminately. Dozens were slain, for ultimately no purpose other than that they stood in the way. No attempt was made by Dungal Toboerski to stop the slaughter, even if he were to claim having brooked no agression against those citizens, why did he not attempt to stop it? Is inaction not just as much murder as action? Ask yourself this question before you enter the polling booths. Dungal Toboerski is as much to blame for deaths of citizens in Lower as any other.
On the subject of Inaction: Candidate Dungal Toboerski took it upon himself to have a new set of gates constructed for the city after their destruction in the goblin attacks on the city. It took an entire month, and yet, no gates were ever constructed or set in place, despite his claims of contracting an artisan to construct them. Three ###### -Months is scratched out- Tendays, it took Dungal Toboerski to hire a team to construct the gates. A single private of the Watch, in turn, seeing this, had the gates rebuilt, and reinstalled, in the matter of three days. Had the drow attacked the city in those three months, the city would have surely fallen, and all of us once slaves, would be slaves again. Had Dungal Toboerski cared for the people of the city, and their safety, would he not see that the city is adequately protected as soon as possible? No, Dungal Toboerski instead spent three months of time wasted due to a prejudice against the duergar who have provided Sanctuary valuable aid for 150 years.
On the subject of incompetence: It's often an indication of the employer, the manner of men he hires. Just recently, the Knights of Toboerski were seen in the Town Hall, championing the cause of Candidate Dungal Toboerski. Not by preaching at the Podium, as they should, but rather by creating an intimidating presence at the election booths. Voters like you were forced to submit their votes under duress, fearful of the Knights of Toboerski. The swift action of the Mayor's appointed officials saw to it that this was ceased, and yet a Knight of Toboerski still saw fit to circumvent the law of the city. Refusing to leave the polling areas, he was arrested for Serious Crimes by the Watch.
In the Watch House, he continued to disrespect the law of the city making lewd, hateful, and sexist comments at the arresting officer, for doing her job. Are these the sorts of men Dungal Toboerski hires? Is this the standard of honor he holds? Is it okay for his knights to be criminals as long as they proceed to disrespect law enforcement officials and women.
Is this the sort of man you want on the City Council? Think twice before you enter the voting booth at Town Hall to vote for Dungal Toboerski.
I do not pretend to be a better man than anyone. In the same vein, I do not believe any noble to be a better man than me, as The Toboerskis and their knights, and all other nobles would have you believe. I am as guilty as any other of wrong doings, but I do not attempt to gain such power as a seat on the Council for myself.
