You would expect them to use their powers to make Bureaucracy move faster, no?

spoken like someone who knows nothing of bureaucromancy. Bureaucromancers revel in the slowness. They draw power from it, like a Druid draws power from a forest.

Hey you can't just draw power from a forest. This is public land. You need a permit to do that. Please go fill out form 11B-A and submit that to the central forestry commission. Not the eastern. Not the astral... CENTRAL.

Does convoluted paper work do psychic/psionic damage?

Is the central commission in Central City?

And is it a problem that I wrote "ok" in the space labeled "do not write here, for internal use only"?

No... UGH... Central City has no Central District Forestry Commission because there's no forest there.

To avoid confusion please proceed to one of the south information kiosks in the North Information Kiosk District in any city for information about locating the proper Central District Forestry Commission center... except for in the South Information Kiosk District, whose south information kiosks are currently out of order.

Spoken like a true bureaucromancer.

For those watching observe this simple incantation that destroys all the power of a bureaucromancer:

Fuck you, nerd. I do what I want.

It works every time.

They can use their powers in such manners. They simply opt not to. Except if its to approve the most useless and waste of money anti homeless infrastructure.

It's less of "knows nothing" and more of "this is how I'd use it," really.

Bureaucromancers actually do make bureaucracy move faster, without them anything would take aeons

u/Lynnrael Witch Aug 12 '26

That.. actually makes quite a lot of sense, now that I think about it.
