Worldwide Omni-Tek Broadcast on the CoT rally

[Jacob Stroud]

After a regularly scheduled commercial break, your vidscreen shifts to a simple image that states "OMNI-TEK", underneath which is written in smaller print "Special Announcement".


Serious Announcer: We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you a special announcement courtesy of Omni-Administrative Services Subdepartment K62.


The 4-note Omni theme sound plays in the background, and the screen shifts to a handsome Opifex man in his mid-thirties. He is smartly dressed in a black Omni-Tek executive's suit. Every detail of his appearance is immaculate, with not a speck of dust on his suit or a strand of hair out of place. He has very serious and reserved demeanor, and speaks with a clear and confident voice:


Good evening, all loyal citizens of Omni-Tek, and friends across Rubi-Ka. My name is Jacob Stroud of Omni-Administrative Services. I am broadcasting this message from the Omni Headquarters building in the heart of Omni-1. I would like to thank Omni-Tek, Omni-InternOps, and Omni-Reform department 28C for the opportunity to speak with you tonight.

For many years we have heard stories, rumors, and gossip regarding the views and ideologies held by the people known collectively as the Clans, our somewhat violent and unpredictable neighbors to the north. Some of these tales have been related by wheedling Clan diplomats and councelors before the ICC and interstellar audience. Other, more reliable information has been provided by accounts from highly professional Omni-Pol and Omni-InternOps employees.

This latter information usually cannot be made available directly to the public, for the safety of the employees who collect this information as well as your own, and is generally relayed to the public thanks to the untiring efforts of the Omni-Tek Press Corp.

Tonight however, we bring to you a very special event. On the evening of March 28, 29478, the Rimor Chamber of the Clans' "Council of Truth" held a rally in order to shore up their political support among their clan allies. This was done with the alleged intention of trying to restore Omni-2 from the damage they inflicted upon it many years ago. Thanks to the immense courage of several fine members of Omni-InternOps, we are able to present to you an unprecedented audio recording of this rally, so that you may hear with your own ears the open, true voice of the Clans in an unbiased format.


The Administrator's already serious expression becomes even more grave...


Be warned, what you are about to hear may shock, offend, and even frighten you, and may not be appropriate for all viewers. We strongly advise that children and the elderly leave the room. Regardless of what you are about to hear, you need not be frightened; Omni-Tek will protect you, no matter what.

Without any further ado, we present to you the Council of Truth's Omni-2 political rally...


The picture changes to a still shot of a painting of Omni-2 under attack by Clan armies. The audio recording plays in the background:

XX:41: Seraph shouts: So basically, what happens when you join the council - you are just a member of it, or, you need to reform your clan and so on - do explain the details!

XX:06: Runlovnfreak shouts: I want a TOlite in my apartment!

The painting of Omni-2 is once again replaced with the image of Administrator Stroud, looking as serious as ever.


You have just heard a typical rally of the Clans. The man who spoke on behalf of the Council of Truth, Elder Sallust of the Pilgrims Clan, has done as Henry Radiman before him: fired up a large crowd with promises of action that are left unfulfilled. The uneducated clansmen, angry at the poor leadership which has given them a life of poverty, strife, and unfulfilled promises, have foolishly turned their anger against peaceful and well-meaning Omni-Tek citizens, people like you and me, instead of where it rightfully belongs. The clan leaders falsely accuse Omni-Tek of using "propaganda", while it is they who bluster out empty platitudes. Omni-Tek makes good on the promises we deliver to our citizens.


Cut to montage of very heroic looking Omni soldiers, cue dramatically building Omni-Tek anthem


When we say that "Omni-Tek Protects", we speak of the courageous men and women of Omni-Pol, Omni-Armed Forces, Omni-InternOps, and dedicated Omni special forces units who risk their lives every day fighting against those who would endanger you or your family. The treacherous villains who threatened to attack our Omni homes, members of a terrorist clan who call themselves Nightmare's Echo, are being hunted down as I speak to you right now.

Our brave forces will stand firm against Nightmare's Echo, they will stand firm against the Dust Brigade, they will stand firm against the Sentinals, they will stand firm against terrorists and bandits of all stripes until Rubi-Ka is at peace once more!


Cut back to the Administrator


Thank you, loyal Omni citizens, and goodnight.


Cut back to station bumper


Serious Annnouncer: This has been a special presentation from Omni-Administrative Services Subdepartment K62. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.


The 4-note Omni theme sound plays again, and the station returns to normal

(writing under the guise of my RK2 Omni alt)

Katelin turned her comm off and decided to watch some TV. Boring shows as usual. Katelin's mind drifted a bit while staring vacantly at the screen. The previous day had seen her at Reets again. It was an unusual eve becuase people actualy showed up. Katelin was rather suprised at that other patrons had shown.

They were all Clan women, none of whom smelled too bad. They must be a little more self-respecting. Katelin was pleasent to them, and they to her. It actually turned into an interesting conversation after they found out she was a priestess to Buffy. Having not spoken much of her Goddess to anyone in so long, Katelin was happy to share her religious beliefs. Although they were somewhat skeptic, they were polite. Katelin gave each a statue of Buffy in hopes they may want to ask more questions and eventually follow the faith.

Shortly after presenting the statues, the Clanners departed. One of Katelins friends showed up at Reets, they chatted for a bit, left Reets and went to her friend's place. It was getting late so after chi-chating a bit, Katelin went home.

Focusing back on the TV, she watched a special announcment come on the air. Nearly dropping her drink, Katelin watched. "I know that man!" It was the same man that had interviewd her about some special jobs for Omni-Admin. "Girl, what have you gotten yourself into!", she thought. Well, she wanted advancement. This looked the way to get it.....

Public memorandum on OT broadcasts of the CoT rallies.
From the Office of Sallust:


Hmm, Omni-Reform produces quality propaganda still I see.

The truth is highly edited to serve the corporate profit, erm, purpose.

Perhaps a challenge is in order. I will invite you jacob stroud to our next public rally, provided that you submit yourself before your peer journalists who will also be invited to make sure a less manipulated piece of propaganda is available for you. I hope a group of reporters wouldn't make you nervous?

The clans are fair, and I should probably thank you for showing the need to have more reporters present.

[Darkkmercy]

*watchs TV sees program*
Well thats just crap the last people hunting Nightmare Echos are right here *points to a bunch of omni pol guards bodies behind him* if you mess with a clanner you mess with them all.

Hmm I wonder where that notum bomb I made went *TV screen goes blank and words technical difficulties comes on screen* hmm wierd coencidence my com registers it just detonated, hmm
*Darkkmercys com rings* Hello?

*grid mailer*Hello yes Mr Darkkmercy we would like to report a error in our shipping it apears a omni adventurer in dog form lost control in the grid and decided to fetch you package and burry it somewhere in omni we are very sorry for any inconveience to you and will attempt to retrieve it soon.
*Darkkmercy* Ohh ok no problem don't worry about it was nothing important there no need to waste your time on it.
We wouldn't want you to waste your time on this *turns com off*

*Darkkmercy Laughs turns off tv sets a vial of cleaning nanos on the ground by omni bodies activates them and walks off*
Hope they saved recently........

[Killchain]

*looks at the screen for roughly 3 seconds, remembers Old Eath America's biased media and hidden agendas, and promptly turns it off.*

[kudayne]

Well the bombs are going to start. I can see from this latest broadcast what the much vaunted CoT is going to be. A tool for the various clanns that can afford it a say into wich terrorist target they will blow up. Funny how they got all this energy to bomb poor omni tech citzens who are jus going about there busness but dont have the time or money to rebuld there own cities. It is a verry sad day for us all I only hope the corp can get this thing destroied before some poor omni tech citzen(like me) is killd in a terrorist attack.

Funny though if this was a meeting of omni unit leaders an various orgs. we would have the neutrals an clan jumping all over them saing opresion but when the clan calls for bombing of busness ditricts an even individual stores the neutral faction is strangly quiet...is this just an oversight....I think not.

[Sallust]

Ah, bombing Omni-Tek are we now?

I suppose Omni-Tek is going to offer as much proof of this allegation as they did about the trumped up charges about the old CoT being connected to the Dust Brigade?

Pathetic. I expect better lies from the experienced departments of Omni-Tek Reform.

[Xhairs]

Maybe that´s because cudayne is not from Omni Reform Sallust. She is from the Order of the Dark Tempest.

Honestly, Mr. Reineman! I believe what Ms. Clasen was referring to were comments made by clan members heard during the audio recording. To quote:

XX:50: Soulcam shouts: lets set a bomb off in rome
XX:50: Stormransack shouts: BOMB ROME
XX:51: Soulcam shouts: Blow up rome blue basic shop
XX:52: Runlovnfreak shouts: why cant we just blow up all the omni stuff..


And et cetera. Words from the mouths of your own fellow clansmen, not "propaganda" cooked up by some secret think tank. It is a fortunate irony that these "action-oriented" clansmen were all talk or else countless innocent lives could have been endangered.

I don't believe that the Council of Truth would condone such activities directly, but we must be practical: the Council simply doesn't have the necessary resources or political clout to establish effective security in the northlands, especially with the current balance of power being what it is.
