[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 2388920, member: 63"] Okay. My plan is coming together. Step 0 - Determine why I want to rule the world. And I want to rule the world because I want to purge non-human magic-users from Terra, destroy those who have been supporting them, and make the world free for human determinitivism. It is important to make sure the sympathetic fools in charge of some nations don't try to negotiate with magic-users. Step 1 - Research the connection between Terra and Gaia. Ultimately I want to trap the Bureau on Gaia while I do enact my plan. Step 2 - Train proteges. Having discovered that certain people are responsible for the connection of Terra and Gaia, I recruit these people, or train their replacements. Step 3 - Become respectable. Volunteer services for the Bureau, but make it clear it's not because I like their agenda; I just don't like magic-users. That way they know I'm a little shady, but trust me enough to not cross any lines because I'm too honorable. Step 4 - Eliminate those people responsible for the connection between the two worlds. This is the hardest step, requiring extremely careful planning and manipulation of enemies of enemies. Step 5 - Once the two worlds are drifting, get my loyal allies who control the rest of the connection to prepare to turn it off. Incite numerous conflicts on Gaia, drawing Bureau resources off Terra. Then have allies sever the connection. Step 6 - Keep tabs on remaining Bureau agents on Terra. Eliminate them or their support structure, if possible. Meanwhile, have my proteges ingratiate themselves into government and politics. Over the course of a few months, they'll achieve close friendships with world leaders. Step 7+ - Ultimately someone will try to muck this up. Must plan contingencies at this point. Also must plan for how I will consolidate power of all these nations, then reveal the existence of magic as a world-wide danger. [/QUOTE]
