Video -- Press Conference (Back dated to the 8th)
[Unlike his previous videos on the network that had a far more personal touch, this time the video cuts in as if it's piggybacking off of feed from a local Native news station. After a moment he makes his way into the shot, sporting his stark black suit with a red tie and take his place at the podium amidst a series of camera flashes.]
Good evening Citizens of these United States, and my import compatriots. I'd like to start off this evening by announcing that I'm running for President.
[There's a moment of stunned silence as Revan taps a couple of cue cards on the podium, seeming to look up from his position with a passive look. As if on cue, as the comment registers, there's a sudden crescendo of gasps and even a few cries of disbelief.
To which Revan quickly raises his hands, chuckling.]
Joking! Just joking. ...It's far to early for that. [He offers a suggestive pique of his brow. And in response there's a polite, but definitely tense bout of laughter.]
But now that I have your attention, I'm here to make a few announcements regarding the well being of Maurtia Falls and my plans going forward. Real announcements.
The first is of a more personal nature. As some might be aware, aside from being the Ambassador of Maurtia Falls' Import population, I am also the owner of Malachor Industries, a company that is committed to providing the world with tailored import creations. Such as what I am about to show you now.
Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you: Bacta.
[From within his breast pocket he pulls out a small vial, containing a glowing blue liquid which the camera zooms in on closely.]
Bacta is a synthetic compound made from symbiotic bacteria that promotes rapid tissue regeneration in any host its introduced to. It's capable of healing most wounds at a fraction of the bodies normal healing rate. And soon I'll be putting it on the market. But before that, I need some volunteers to test the product before I make it available for public consumption.
There is virtually no risk involved. To all those interested, they will receive free treatments of Bacta for a week to see if there are any side effects. After that small quantities will be made available upon special order until I have a steady enough supply for the wider market.
[Putting the vial away, Revan comes to square himself back against the podium, as if bracing himself for his next announcement.]
As for my second and final announcement for today: As you are aware, it is the Ambassador's responsibility to hear the needs of his constituents and act towards their betterment. The Government as offered us a direct avenue to process these needs officially in the form of Bills. You may have heard some of the other great bills that have passed recently due to the dedication of our other Ambassadors and those that support them.
I too have submitted a bill to congress. It has been met with some criticism, and it was the topic of much consideration. But I have finally received word from our gracious hosts that we are permitted to move forward.
After sitting down with several imports and discussing matters of personal importance, I've quickly come to realize that there is a strong sentiment of hopelessness within our community. Each person spoke on how they felt helpless within their own city, like they had no real foundation from which to start a comfortable life. Some imports have tried in the past to provide some sense of aid and stability: offering funds or career counseling to help with the awkward transition that many imports face upon arriving here.
But do to the inherent ephemeral nature of the import existence, many of these services have gone the way of their creators, simply vanishing into obscurity. But with your help, I plan to create an import service station in Maurtia Falls, that will act as a nexus, a foundation for the import infrastructure for the days ahead. Here, these services can be brought together, made official in the eyes of the community. And should an import, whom has worked so hard to provide for their peers, port out, the service will remain behind for another enterprising import to pick up again.
I have also requested that this all be done without government oversight.
[There's a sudden murmur of hushed whispers from the crowd, but Revan continues, as if fully expecting it.]
Many have spoken out that they feel there is nothing of this world that they can truly call their own. I have stood my ground on this and won the right for imports to accept jurisdictional responsibility for these premises themselves, with all the benefits and repercussions inherent to such an arrangement.
With your help, we can take the imports from being castaways, lost in the multidimensional drift and become the community we all seek.
I'll be taking question from both those here and the ones watching. [He nods to the camera, as if signaling that should you wish to respond, he'll know.]
[ooc:There is a log for the testing of Bacta here and an ooc posting here! Sorry for the delay in getting this posted!]
