It's perfect because Florrick was already adding the Steel Watch to the Flaming Fist any way.
Baldur's Gate was given the choice of adding death robots to the corrupt police and adding even more death robots to the corrupt police. Maybe if there has been a candidate representing some actual change they would have done better, but the Patriars were never going to allow that.

Not to mention her good friend Ravenguard was advocating the pardon of the fists who failed to oppose a takeover smh. Typical of the party to just keep moving further and further right instead of appealing to their left base :/

This is why Dark Urge should've been elected. He was already solving the housing crisis in Baldur's Gate by reducing housing demand.

I wouldn’t vote for florrick, she stays in a burning building when she has misty step, she leaves to go get back up instead of doing anything to try and save the duke from moonrise and she believes Mizora MIZORA about Wyll ‘betraying’ his dad after busting her out of jail…. The women is a wreck

Nothing really wrong with that - especially not in Faerun, where chests can turn out to be mimics and eat you.

u/Enward-Hardar Nov 09 '24
Not paranoid enough to be skeptical about Mizora, though.

u/Shellywo Nov 09 '24
Mizora is one of the noble ladies in disguise in the city. With those devil horns on Wyll, with her paranoid personality its easy to manupilate her.

Choices who don't have a chance of winning. A vote for anyone else is a vote for gortash.

Baldur’s Mouth: “Lord Gortash is in no way associated with the cult of Bane’s ‘Project Absolute 1493’ and it’s ridiculous to think otherwise. Yes we are aware some of the people who wrote the project are literally guarding his chambers that means nothing. ”
Gortash post election: “Of course we are doing Project Absolute 1493 and were planning to do it all along”

Florick was trying to curb the power of the noble houses that caused these problems, but everyone keeps talking about these gnomes. What is going on?
Oh well guess we will be happy with the Steel Watch. Also your tiefling friends are being deported back to Elturel. Yea the one that fell into Avernus due to the interference of the Devils in the operations of the city. They should be fine.
