I dislike coffee.
So I'll just be sitting in the corner eyeing everyone else sadly.

I'm a Mormon so I'll just have some nice green tea (the kind that doesn't have the normal caffeine of tea).

How can you live without caffeine?! It is the wellspring of energy and power!

Well, I'm not one to speak about caffeine really. I barely ever drink coffee, and I quit drinking coke a month or two ago (banzai to me for beating my addiction!) so I don't have a very high intake of caffeine. ;D

Would you object to another player? Name: The Light Beckons (Referred to as The Light by it's followers, as the Order by others, and Those Idealistic Idiots by detractors)
Form of Government: Democratic Theocracy
Territory: Brazil, Venezuela, Columbia
History: The Light Beckons was formed in 1828, as revolution swept Argentina. The Order's leaders were originally exiles from all over the world, who met in the city of Rio De Janerio in the may of that year. This unpreceedented confrence resulted in the forming of the "Code", a set of revolutionary morals that act as the founding charter of the Order. They lay down principles of universal equality, respect for human life, a set of basic human rights, and democracy. It also stipulates the need for an organisation made up of entlightened people to educate humanity as a whole about the tenets of the Code. This organisation (later to become The Light Beckons) was to guide the entire world into a new era of tolerance. The movement has spread like wildfire, grabbing hold of the public imagination worldwide. In 1836, when Crown Prince Desari Travili inherited the throne of Brazil, he handed power over to The Light, to public jubilation. Later that year, the king of Columbia bowed to the demands of his palace guard, and followed suit. In 1838, a revolution in Venezuela with the stated objective of handing power over to The Light. When this revolution was brutally crushed by royalist troops, Santos Lerva (Speaker for the council) called a massive vote. Overwhelmingly, the citizens of The Light voted to ride to the rescue of the rebels. The first volunteers army crossed the border in november 1838, and crushed the last royalist resistance in the july of the next year.
Strengths:
-High Morale: The Light is treated with a devotion approaching fanaticism by it's followers, partially due to it's mastery of propaganda. -Widespread: The Order is everywhere.. It's followers can be found across the entire world. -Technologically advanced Military: The Sword (The elite military wing of the Order) are superbly well-equipped.
Weaknesses:
-Low civil tech level: The Light's followers are almost entirely uneducated, and the lands that The Order controls are still just about medieval in tech level. -Small Army: The Sword is tiny, espesially when compared to the size of the Order's population. While the Order could theretically call upon massive numbers of volunteers, equipment shortages make this impossible.
VIPs: -Desaro Travili: Desaro was the last of the line of Travili monarchs, handing power over to The Light in 1836. Recently, he has been elected governor of brazil, where he has gained international acclaim for his prowess at governance. -Santos Lerva: Santos is the current speaker for the council. This position means that she operates as the public face of The Light Beckons.
