Side Story Poll - June 2020!
🕑 Added 2020-06-29 06:35:38 +0000 UTCAnd here we are again! Again...how the months pass. Well, my regular vacation each month might decrease the amount of chapters, so these polls actually matter more. Maybe I should look into that...take longer breaks, but more sporadically?
That's for the future. For now--here is the poll. The theme is--2nd-in-commands. The people behind the power. The competent folk we don't know about. I hope you vote hard--but perhaps check the glossary or wiki to know who you're voting for! This is a trivia test. Were you prepared? Did you take notes? Vote away!

I had to choose Salii. I love the Pomle chapters and the idea's presented by them. Not to be mistaken though, I'm ready to read absolutely any of those chapters!
Big Stick Stew
I still dont know who most of these people are and the wiki didnt really help
Patrick Sheehy
alarric, because I have a hunch hes actually controlled by the necromancer
Smaug
Alrric for sure, gimme more drakelore.
Curtis anthony Moerike
The good ship IlvrissXErin will never stop sailing ✊😤
Delana Bosworth
I think pirateaba should consider switching to ranked voting. Too many good choices.
Plot
Why is Nsiia on this list even?! Defeated empress is now 2nd in command of her captor?!
Alan McBrayer
She doesn't really count as a side character though.
Gabe Canada
Neat. Its solo voting now
SabreToothTortseshell
Doesn't lyonnette count as a person behind the throne?
Chargcake
I don't remember who half of these characters are
Imran
She's the Empress of the baest nation who didn't want to fight or ally with Flos, so everyone else attacked her.
Stinner
Came to comments to be reminded of who these characters were and was not disappointed!
Tom Prouty
I want to see the reaction to Erin’s ring going off. Because, would it not inform all of the wall lords?
Ian Ballard
Alaric. Drake inter and intra-city politics are touched on throughout the story but how the non-Pallassian Drakes perceive the Antinium changes and how that flavors the secret crusade against the Necromancer should be fascinating.
Durzo
Salii. Anything Pomle related is just badass. I still want to go back and reread the fighting scene where the leader singlehandedly whopped the asses of multiple high-level wannabes.
Compendium
None of this is more interesting than the high level empress who lost their class. Want to see that perspective.
Pluto
Prost would have an update on goblins and witches.... Really there are no losers here. It's awesome that Pomle is the viewpoint I actually care about the least right now considering how inherently interesting they are.
DThornz
Perhaps this could be like one of the last polls and the top 2 get chapters? This way majority gets what they want.
Pluto
The empress of beasts! I completely forgot about her. That would be a really good perspective to see. Takhatres also would be interesting because he's basically the only connection to the Empire of Sands we really have. Tyrion is someone I wish we had more insights to as well... hrng.
Boredwayfarer
You're a hero. Too bad pirate limits the vote this time
Maximilian Zauner
On the scale huh, well done! True, Pomle would be great as well, but then...probably every one of the characters in the poll would have me jump around in glee.
Joseph
Here's a breakdown for people who don't want to look these names up. Alrric is Ilvriss' 2nd, Takahatres is the garuda in KoDs 7, Jericha is the mage for Terion Veltress, Prost is the Emperors steward, Salii is the Secretary of Polme(choose this one!!!), and Nsiia was the Empress of beasts.
DThornz
I'm all for Alrric. After last chapter I want to see how much he knows about Erin and how damage control works for him Haha.
J03MAN
The thumb is clearly on the scale for ilvress' second in command with the recent ring tease. Which is too bad because i would really like to see how salii the secretary organizes the anarchy of pomle's martial artists and refugees.
Pluto
Who's Nsiia? Is that the blacksmith or the ex noble in the Quarass's entourage? The name seems very Chandrarian. Well, I already voted for Alrric because I've been wanting to check in on Salazar for a while now.
Diego Jimenez
...Does Nsiia really count as a second-in-command? I'm pretty sure she's a HVP for the Golem nation. And used to be an [Empress]. Then again, I guess she might be in a special situation there, given that the two leaders had a strange dynamic going on between them.
DThornz
In case anyone wants a reminder: Alaric ~ Illvriss's Gnoll [Administrator] Takahatres ~ One of Flos's Seven, a Garuda Jericho ~ Human [Mage] and Lord Tyrion's aide Prost ~ Emperor Laken's [Steward] Salie ~ Drake [Secretary] of Pomle's Strongest, Orjin Nsiia ~ Empress of Tiqr , controls beasts. (Not sure if this option counts, not really a 2nd in command)
Jason Duel
I think Salii... I just love the idea of a [Secretary] going into the desert to do some hard core training always tickled me. Also, Pomle is awesome. But it will probably be Alrric. lol
J03MAN
Pomle's institutional anarchy fascinates me. I'll be very happy if we get to see Salii's story!
Vic Coleman
Nothing to do with Flos.
Joshua Case
I would love a Nsiia chapter, I really wanna know what's happening with her right now!
J03MAN
Alrric (wall lord ilvress gnoll retainer/steward) Jericha (lord tyrion's aid) Prost (emporer laken's steward) Salii (pomle oasis' secretary)
Maximilian Zauner
I'm so down for an Ilvriss-related chapter...the ring wet my appetite sooo hard x)
Geir Bergh
Cant remember either og these..
Tom Prouty
Let the bet character win
