Magical Girl Quest - The Fire That Burns

Here's my first thoughts, though I am concerned about Sabina if we end up out of the way and anting to be left alone. She has some issues around fighting, and I think she'd become extremely antsy if we tried to keep her from it.

Honestly not sure where we ought to pick our base.
Really want Cerys to be a little bit more personable as a faction leader.

The first three votes should be self evident in purpose. My reason for picking the transporter and the informant though, should be clear here, I want to be able to know when shit starts going down elsewhere in the world, and to be able to intervene if we decide it's necessary.

Ok, so an explanation for my plan. I picked China because it is mostly out of the way of both major factions and does not have a government which will allow us to get set up. It also allows us to create our own power base so we do not have to rely completely on anyone else for guidance/protection. While we do not know Chinese, Daiyu and Cuifen do and we can have them teach us.

I do not really care about faction names, but I think Una will pick something suitable.

I picked the healer because of two reasons. 1. She honestly seems the most useful and indispensable of all of the potential magical girl candidates. We can handle most of what the other girls can give us, with difficulty but we can do it. We can set up a base, fly to where we are needed without the transporter, find basic information about the area or other groups, and the wildcard is not really a safe pick regardless. However, we cannot regrow lost limbs and our regeneration has limits to what it can do as shown when we attacked the Clocktower base. Before now, if we lost a limb Gaia could just magic up a solution or Karen could fix it for us but now we, or any other member of our party, would be crippled for a significant and unacceptable period of time. If we have the healer, we do not have to worry about most injuries short of death and can rejoin the fight very quickly. 2. I have wanted to help them since their interlude, and this may be the only chance we get at it. They seem nice, and clearly care about the people they are protecting.

I went with the informant because we already know too little about everything, and trying to figure out the situation in China while it is on fire is going to be incredibly difficult. If we can figure out what is going on around us we can properly plan out what to do without making things worse. This will make everything easier and allow us to hopefully secure ourselves or head off conflicts before they reach us.

[X] Plan: America with the Healer and Informant

Ok, quick question to everyone jumping to go back to the forest. Why do you want to do that? What are you planning to do once you get there? Like, beyond "It's Forest bro!!!", what is your reasoning for why America, one of the centers of the Counter Force's power, would make a good place to start our faction?

Nobody has actually given a reason for why they are voting for it yet.

In my case- I feel like what Cerys wants, assuming that hasn't gone topsy turvy due to Gaia+shenanigans that happened, is peace and quiet to develop her powers and watch over Una, and the rest of our little group also wants that.
That, crossed with this quest having something of a problem with voter competence (all the really slick voters got yoinked out the pool) means I'm kind of leery of trying to do anything major-I don't trust we can really handle all that much, basically.

I don't think that going to the forest will give you the peace and quiet that you think it will. Plus, I doubt that the people that we are picking up, especially the healer based on her personality from the interlude, would be willing or satisfied to just sit around in the forest all day. Living in America has its own set of challenges, (the armies that the Light is sending out, the Counter Force in America, and maybe the Clocktower if Canada hasn't already been crushed by the US) which I also doubt the player's competency in handling. In China at least, a sword to the face is an acceptable solution to many problems. Not so much in America.

[X] Plan Avalon

I'm not super married to any plan, but Bakery subgoal is fine with me.

Honestly I'm not picky except one thing- I ain't voting for any plan that goes back to the states. It ain't forest bros fault by any means but I have absolutely 0 desire to go anywhere near that shitshow. Europe is similarly on shakey grounds with me atm.

If we want to screw with Rukia go somewhere weird and off the wall we could go hide out in the middle of fuckoff nowhere Africa or South America if we really wanted to hide that badly.

I'm updating this to include the Informant over the Transporter, as that seems more useful.
