[@BlueAjah] that's fine, if we need him to do town stuff we'll either tell you exactly what needs to happen or we'll take him over for a post, whichever you prefer. 

This is what Snarl had to say about how to play the mayor.

The Mayor is a retired hero. Think of him as Santa claus mixed with a lumberjack and a viking- with a little dash of Socrates. The mayor, for all his brawn, knows how to lead his people. Never play him as simply the man with muscle- he has a brain too.

Glad you liked the flower idea, Violet actually came up with it. ^.^
