"Hello, mortal! I am xfjnvsvdkjvn, the god of change! I heard that you're feeling a little bored, so I've come to add a little more spice to your life! Behold my magnificent powers!"
[Source of Random Effect Roll: 1d4: Metamorphica]
[Random Mutation Roll: 1d1000: 39: Crest]
[Type of Crest: 1d6: 6: Scales]
sfvnsvdvelgvn gives this guy a crest.

"There's more where that came from if you worship me! Future mutations will _probably be more beneficial than that one, of course."

Description of the crest mutation: "This mutant has a crest on top of its head, made of rigid flesh, bone, cartilage, feathers, horn, scales, or other material."

((I voted for asymmetric updates only because we should be able to talk and plan things with our followers before committing to a course of action.))

Whisper to the mortal: The sea gives, and the sea takes. Such is the tides of life. Yet worry not, I have seen your strife and come to aid you. Take several pearls from the nearby ocean and make them glow with my mana. Give them to the mother. Take these pearls back to your people and tell them what you've heard today. Have your people pray to me and I will return your village to prosperity.

Psst. You might need to tell her who/what you are. "A glowing ball of light" isn't much to go on.

Polaris
-1 mu: Divine Telepathy x1
"I-I, yes! If it means freedom for the others and myself, I'd be your faithful servant! Please, tell me what I can do!"
Polaris gained 1 Strong follower; +1 mu income gained.

Tyr Loknar
-2 mu: Divine Telepathy x2
"I've had enough of your lies. You've been nothing but a pest - a plague - on this castle as long as I can remember."
"I swear, brother! I'm simply telling the truth, and nothing more!"
"Enough is enough."
Tyr Loknar can sense an extreme outrage swell up in the king as he approaches his brother, unsheathing his sword.

Rouragan

The woman is taken aback by the gloating pearls approaching her. She looks up into the sky.
"The sea took my life and my son away. He can't come back. I want the best for my town, so I will tell them of you, but pearls don't return him."
Rouragan gained: 1 half-devoted Strong follower. +0.5 mu income gained.

Poll was of course to help me decide if asymmetrical updates were "fair". I was already leaning towards Assymetric, but I've decided now; talking and other small actions will qualify for minor updates between the actual updates. Most things won't change between updates other than the occasional gained follower.
And there will also be a limit of 1 minor update per person. As well as more consequences happening in the large updates. And don't worry if you don't want to try and min/max by always talking then doing an action: I'll ultimately try and keep the effects of minor and major updates balanced.

If you think it's unfair, please do PM me.

<Think of the slavers.  What can we do with the least effort to destabilize them?  Where are their weak points?  How do they keep you here?  Simply, think of everything you know of these slavers.  Knowledge is a power all its own, one which I am lacking in as of yet.

What is your name?>

Polaris is looking for least-effort ways to pit the slavers against themselves.

((I'd just like to point out that conversations are hard to do with just one update.))

[Chiefwaffles]

Polaris - Conversation
"My name is Elizabeth. But I really don't know much about the slavers..."
"They're just regular humans. I was taken as a slave two years ago; when my village was raided. As far as I know they just use us as labor for goods to sell."
She seems to realize that she's not actively working as she thinks, and takes a second to make herself appear busy.
"I really don't know much else; they have some kind of pub or tavern at the camp that the ones that aren't working meet at? I don't think I know anything else. I am sorry."
Fine.
New 100% final rules:
1.) Major update. Big things happen.
2.) Minor update. Conversation things happen, some small effects can happen.
3.) Conversation - Absolutely no effective changes until next actual update.

It's not complicated at all. I don't know what you're talking about. Major update is like a regular FG update. Minor updates are basically just conversation but with some possible effects. And conversation is standard RP-like conversation.

Oh my. . .

((Speaking to the brothers now))

To the king:
If you kill him, you'll never know for sure. . .

To the brother:
Stay calm. . . He only suspects you. . . He doesn't truly know. . .

[TheBiggerFish]

<It is not a failing, Elizabeth.

Do slaves work in the tavern?>

[Chiefwaffles]

Polaris - Conversation
"I think some slaves work there, but I don't believe enough slaves to fully man the tavern?"

Tyr Loknar - Conversation
((I deducted the divine telepathy cost because I saw that as equivalent to encouragement.))
-2 mu: Divine Telepathy x2

"What? What was that? Barith, what trickery is this?!"
"Whatever you're talking about, I haven't done it!"

"Whoever you are, can't you show yourself if you intend to help me? My brother is going to kill me!"
Italic speech = thought, by the way.

[Roboson]

Search out other members of the coastal village.

[S34N1C]

((Hmm, I seem to have worked my way into a corner. I was hoping to resolve this without actually picking a side, seeing as they are both within my realm of influence, but I suppose I should have known that this was inevitable))

I suppose action will be necessary. . .

Tyr reveals himself to the brothers as a vague humanoid figure made of dark purple smoke with reddish-purple eyes.


"Enough! I am Tyr, the Secretkeeper! I have lead you both to this, the Balance of secrets. You, the King who suspects his brother of bedding thine wife; and you, who has sinned and wishes to remain hidden! I am intrigued by the pair of you, and wish you to do as I ask. You," he beckons to the King,You will endeavor to uncover the secrets which threaten to endanger the people, and put an end to them. And you,he turns to the brother, you will search the land for forbidden knowledge, and hide it away, so that mankind can never find them again.


I must depart your presence now, for I grow weak. I would implore you, spread my teachings, so that I may regain my strength, and grant the faithful the boons they deserve. . .

[TheBiggerFish]

<I do not know the extent of my reach, Elizabeth.  I may be bound to you, or to here.  If the former, which I will test in a moment, I may need your help to get within the slavers' sanctum and disrupt them.  I will stay with you after I have tested this.  Please do not let on about me unless you are sure the other can be trusted, and sure you can trust your trust of them.  The time will come, but not yet.>

Polaris methodically tests their limits re:moving about, without spending any mana, and always keeping in mind Elizabeth's position to return to.

[Felissan]

Sorry about being inactive! I thought there were too many other guys for me to get in. I'll post a sheet/action once I read up.

EDIT:

Spoiler: Otigee (click to show/hide)

Name: Otigee

Calling: A beggar who saw a gemstone fall from the sky in front of him at night, and who wishes to get the most he possibly can out of it
