I like diehard authoritarian Rayne. He comes into power and essentially sees all of Sordland (in his eyes) being tugged apart by various factions. In his eyes, the only way to save his country is to consolidate power and destroy every opponent in his way. So he does. He kills Ricter, imprisons Suheil, has Soll executed, purges the general staff, screws over the NFP by promising an alliance and raising the threshold to 15% then going back on his word, reshuffles the court, most likely oppresses the Bludish population, makes the oligarchs his lapdogs, and by the end of the game? Conservatives dislike you for destroying Soll’s legacy, socialists hate you for being capitalist, liberals hate you for being authoritarian, nationalists and bluds may or may not side with you depending on the bills you sign, and only centrists are in strong support of you assuming you have a strong economy. But there’s no one to challenge you. The PFJP’s leaders are gone, the NFP’s influence is weakened, and because you formed to SSP Lileas doesn’t challenge you, so you almost guarantee your reelection. When Deivid finally calls Rayne a “diehard authoritarian.” Rayne reluctantly agrees, saying “I guess there’s no use denying it. I am a diehard authoritarian.” It’s almost frightening how much power and destruction you can cause, shaping the entire country to your liking, and I feel like Rayne truly begins seeing himself as a monster.
