Day 9 of the #RPGCampaignTour Challenge brings up a question that is answered haphazardly in my Gamma World campaign "This Is Not a Test", namely "Who's in charge here?"
Riverbend - The PCs hometown? There's some sort of council of elders who handles things. Justinian of the Restorationists is on it. Loman Strait, the incompetent militia leader, is allegedly on it too. But with all the planning some of the characters have done, and complaining by others, none of the De Facto Explorers have shown up for a meeting, or have actual power in town. This might need to be rectified once the group returns from their big quest for the winter.

Fair-Town - There is most certainly a Queen in Fair-Town, but most decision come down to the eight member Town Council, ranging from local farmers, captains of the town guard, community leaders, and even a two-time Queen's Joust champion. That's right De Facto Explorer member Lathar Bracken, a resident of Riverbend, won the seat on the council by winning the last joust. He's only showed up for one session, becoming the tie-breaking vote on a number of decision, most notably recognizing the Kirothian people and putting the leader of the Kirothians (and his ex-girlfriend) Elona on the council as well.

K.I.A. Academy - KIA is a huge complex, taking up a lot of land, but few truly recognize that above the base level are at least 14 levels... and 8 sublevels beneath. Even high ranking officials know little about what occurs above level 10, but it's assume a committee with people sharing titles like chancellor, provost, and directors share the responsibility of operations within and beyond the literal white tower and the top of KIA's main building.
Next: Day 10 - "What's the First Thing We Should Do?"
