West Witch

I have read through countless applications – some of which showed promising evil aptitude, some of which proved disappointing – and I have finally come to my decision.

My new campaign manager is Sarah T. Her connections and ideas have convinced me that she is the candidate who will help me ascend to the top of this mess you call the Democratic Process.

She will be aided by Andrew and Greg S., two men who I am confident will be the best right and left hands a campaign manager could ask for.

Now. It is time we begin brainstorming. Failure is not an option – this world is too chaotic and must be made to conform for simplicity’s sake. It falls to the hands of my campaign management team, who I’m certain would not enjoy seeing what I do should we lose.

So I was watching the news, and they said something about an “earthquake”. I didn’t know what that meant, so I looked it up. Turns out an earthquake is exactly what it sounds like. When everything breaks. Cities get torn down in minutes. Huge waves swamp entire towns. One happened in a place called Haiti not too long ago, another in Japan.

Who caused it? No one caused it. It just kind of happened. I have caused destruction like this – heck, I’ve caused destruction exactly like this before – but I’ve always done it with a purpose in mind. A goal. And there was a way that it all seemed to build up into…I don’t know. A story.

I don’t know where I fit into all of this. What is the point in being wicked if evil things happen without me lifting a finger? Maybe when I am Wizard, I will have the ability to channel this chaos more effectively. Now, it just all feels… wrong.

One thing’s for sure, I need to get this campaign underway. I will be selecting my manager soon.

So, I have decided to launch my own campaign for Wizard, though I need someone who is more familiar with this world to assist me. To that end, I placed an ad in several newspapers, calling for a “Campaign Manager.”

Today the first round of applications came in. A wide selection of minion candidates, many of which were interesting and warrant further review. I had to curse a few of them, however, for insolence or other forms of deception.
