Re: Idea's to Keep Utasa around

So what are some other things we can do while we are waiting for things to get going in other areas. Utasa Hang outs? maybe group training? not sure what else to look at.

A possible flyer for a possible event the Utasa could throw wrote:Are you worried about the infested? Afraid they'll attack your home like they have so many other settlements lately? Want to learn to defend yourself and your loved ones from the resen threat? Join the Utasa in a training and (optional) field exercise this Citisday!
The Utasa is a branch of the Tse Gaiyan dedicated to fighting off the resent threat and keeping infested out of your homes and cities. To start, these elite anti-infested soldiers will offer combat training to any who desire to show the infested they won't go down without a fight. After the training session, any who wish to will be taken out on a field exercise, bringing the fight to the infested directly. The combat will start on the outskirts of Tarueka, where the risk of serious injury is extremely minimal. For those who wish to go further, the group will later make their way into the infested town itself, where the danger is higher.
Suggestions for those joining the Utasa on the field exercise:
- Wear some kind of facemask covering the nose and mouth. Nobody knows for sure if they're immune. Lessen the possibility of inhaling airborn spores!
- Gird yourself in protective gear, at the very least about the torso. Even a complete novice can move around relativley unhindered in light leather armor. Protective gear can be the difference between life and death.
- Eat some emberberries before and after the field exercise. While by no means a cure, and only suspected to be an aid to keeping one's mind clear of outside influence, it doesn't hurt to take every potential preventative measure against possible infestation.
- Know that you join AT YOUR OWN RISK. Injuries will be tended to the best of the abilities of those present, but safety is in no way guaranteed. While unlikely, if you show signs of infestation, the Utasa will need to detain you indefinitely.
I like the idea of the separatist group, the "inner circle". Most of the Utasa work with the Udemi, but then there are the "others" who the Udemi don't even know about and only few Utasa do. Trying to seperate the Udemi and the Utasa entirely I think is a bad idea.Sleilax wrote:I think the concept of what a spy organization is way more complex than just sneaking around and spying. I definitely think there should be open Utasa who work publicly towards the end goals of Utasa while there is covert agents who do stuff that the Utasa wouldn't want to be caught doing. That's key here. The only reason you would have spies is if you were doing stuff you wouldn't want others to know about. That's why there must be separation from the Udemi. IC we would justify it by it being for the good of the Tse Gaiyan and the detriment of the resen. It goes so far as I'm sure many Udemi would be opposed to what the Utasa do but that's why they are separate and not just one group. There is so much potential for the Utasa in Clok beyond sneaking around. I would elaborate but hmm maybe I'll just send it to Vinz.
The FBI and CIA also don't share the same headquarters. What you're talking about in a way already exists, I don't know or much care what Utasa are doing beyond helping fight resen, I don't think other Udemi know much more than I about what the Utasa are doing.Sleilax wrote:No I don't mean they should be separated from the same place. It's sort of like the FBI and the CIA, they both work for the US government and they both have similar goals but they don't communicate much on what each are doing internally.
