From The Onion:

City planning commissioner Errol Criclow, who was dismissed by LaMere at a Planning And Zoning Commission hearing last Thursday as “subhuman,” said that he feared that LaMere’s power would eventually corrupt him and his city. According to Criclow, during a private consultation with local community leaders, LaMere became infuriated with timid suggestions that his amulet be used to create more green spaces. In a blinding torrent of thunder and light, LaMere violently rezoned Rochester’s west side with a maze of warehouses and parking garages. The act left LaMere himself dazed and shaken.
