I just want to put some feelers out to see what kind of things people are wanting / expecting from a PC-led council. We've had a social event (again, my apologies to those who couldn't make it due to timezones), and there is at least one "gather a party to go to X to check it out" style not-even-really-a-quest-or-event event in the works too.
But what do you folks want? More ways to interact with the Council? Are there ways you feel the council can be made to feel more relevant? I don't think that anyone wants a situation where a bunch of RL work is done for no reason.
IC wants and needs can of course be PMed or spoken about IC, this is more a question to players.
I have a few ideas but unfortunately, theyre kinda build team heavy so may not be so good but i'll throw it out there in case it gives others ideas. The council to me could be responsible for(gives self uppercut) collecting taxes off locals to fund local works, (sewers block and shit monsters come out, need to fix pipes or something lol) or trying to restore caravans, civil works, i dunno, stuff like that. Research and development into a telepad to mirros? Like I said, build heavy and the team is probably reading this and sharpening their knives lol but might spark some ideas, *shrugs* I may be way off here, but bouncing around ideas in my opinion is always great for creativity.
This is good stuff. Spit-balling is what I'm after. Anything that the council players can latch onto OR that could give The Team ideas. Doesn't have to be fully fleshed out or realised.

Ideas for inspiration: Formation training, training a group of adventurers to work together as a team and keep in formation for battles! Flea market day, everyone brings some stuff they found to a market day where we all try to hock wares to each other. Yoga classes! Tai Chi day, Tea party day! Plant a tree day! Group gardening! Everyone grabs coffee or an ale together at Darcy's and just hangs out day! History classes on the current threats we face day? Exploration to new areas day! Here are a few ideas, i'll bring more to the table later maybe?
Given that we're having a new election at the moment, I'd like to invite people to again put any thoughts here for what you'd like to see from the council. Especially if it doesn't require DM or Build support.
