As Public Relations and one without any huge disfigurement Tepkk is of course often called upon to pose for Propoganda Recruitment posters! Its often incredibly awkward for him to then put up the posters around Rata Sum after they are printed as they have his big face on it.

Will be happy to answer questions about Tepkk, the Inquest, or even small responses as Tepkk in the comments to other residents of Tyria! This will hopefully be a semi ongoing series as writing as Tepkk and his family has been a good bi daily exercise.

Entry #2
Damage control OR When it hits the fan.

Hello again recording device, its dinner time again. And that means its time for me to talk to an empty room. Again.

Parents haven't really been here at all these past few years. They live and work at INQ HQ here and get shuffled around to other main cities to work in recruitment there. And Kizz is at a place I 'wasn't qualified' to know about. Great stuff. Love it. Love this company sometimes not telling me whats happening with my sister after Mouth told me to go rescue her. Glitching...UGH.

Ok I'm back, took a walk around the college triangle loop and now I'm back. I would like to clarify for the records that Director Vexxis is a wonderful Asura and a fine Director and my former mention of him is entirely in good fun. We have fun in the Inquest and nicknames are a great show of it. Also to clarify I do understand why its proper for a PR not to know about all sections of our operations but I will admit that while Family tends to take a back seat to the...family you find in the Inquest I would like to know where my sister is only because she was recently rescued and I was part of the rescue team.

Ok that should do it.

Today I will talk about one of our most commonly preformed functions. Assuring the public that they are safe and everything is normal. For any number of reasons really. Perhaps a Golem got out of control. There was a spillage of chemicals. The Risen puppies escape again. Maybe even the branded crystals got given out as jewelry. Again.

These are things that Directors and Managers do call us for as while they may not like us sticking our noses into their inter Krewe relations they do understand we are trained to deal with the none Inquest public. Even none Asura. And often they have their hands full dealing with the fallout of whatever happened themselves anyway. You, though who knows who this you may be as this is supposedly just for me, have likely seen myself or other PR agents with earpieces on while we are on the clock. These not only record our day for quality assurances in our work but also connect us to the INQKontroller of the section we are currently running. So for example when I begin my day I connect to the Kontroller of Rata Sum. Remember we Care. Its often just an AI informing of us developments and events which is good as it means her robotic voice means everything is fine. But when we hear a real, often panicked voice, come into our ears we all know its time to move. We move around our assigned location and city in a very carefully constructed pattern that means three of us can reach any location quickly. Teamwork and all that.

First we are told of the severity so we can begin to gather tools. We have five levels of risk; Face, hands, chest, golem, and feet. I've never once seen feet thankfully.

Face - We will be heading there just to stand away from the incident and kindly ask people to move along and direct them to Inquest HQ for a full report of this incident. Often these are just a golem falling over or a crate breaking in transit that had safe items in it. Just daily stuff.

Hands - We will be taking a more active roll in clean up. Perhaps the crate was carrying something secretive or a prototype. This are the situations where we need the item moved from the public eye as fast as possible so we assist in moving it - then return to face.

Chest - This means a belligerent party is involved. That will wish to get to the incidents location. We will be there to act as a chest wall to keep them from getting there. Perhaps another Krewes Golem was damaged or perhaps even a personal injury. Thankfully because there are always more than one PR at an incident location one of us will begin tending to any injuries as the other two work on keeping the parties separate. We don't want the incident to escalate.

Golem - The worst I've seen so far it means that not only are we on route but golems are as well. This often means something dangerous to the public has happened and we need to get there immediately to keep people away. The Golems will deal with the clean up but we need to keep the public safe. From my personal experience a prototype small reactor was what got me called for Golem. It was being moved from its lab to a demonstration location and the golem that was carrying it was fried by the reactor and fell forward. Breaking the casing and spreading toxic waste and fumes into the air. I carry a simple breathing mask ever since that incident as I was hacking for two weeks after it. Thank you Inquest medicine. But you've probably noticed that we tend to do the same thing even though the levels are different. But its mainly to warn us what to expect. So we can prepare.

Feet - This is different though and its a situation everyone is likely aware of. It means run. Run away from the location. Warn everyone, raise all alarms, and run. Direct people ahead of you if you can but you have to get out of there or you will very likely die. The most famous recorded incident of this was Thaumanova. I hope I never get informed of a Feet situation.

Then we are told the location which is simple enough. Feet often doesn't tell a location as its one itself. Just to make sure we know where to go. Once we have been informed of these two things we key our earpeice and inform the Kontroller and the Asura or individual that called for help that we received and who we are. Then that we are on route. This was they are calmed knowing that we are coming to help. And also so the Kontroller can report that we are actually doing our job and get it recorded in the books.

I think I got a little carried away with that as my take out I picked up on my walk now looks less than hot. So I'll heat that up again in this...empty room and then probably sleep. End recording.
