Wait, if your spheres are tied to your followers perceptions, could you tell them you are the god of cheese, and if they start worshiping you as that on top of your previous stuff, could you become the god of cheese? or not. I don't know.

I don't have zealous followers? :/

Though I can understand why I haven't gotten any spheres. Amparos hasn't really interacted with the Chosen too much.

I suspect your followers would find a new god. Who worships CHEESE?

Depends. Things like that wouldn't really work well.
If you tell them to do something like that, expect negative consequences.

The Chosen are not necessarily zealously devoted to Amparos, but more to his 'gift'.

I might do a post from the POV of the Chosen Chieftain, who is basically just a puppet ruler with no actual power aside from commanding the Chosen armies in battle. Some war preparations-stuff, probably.

Speaking of that, Iituem, Karne, get to making those allies.

There, now the Northren have massive feral arctic wolves to aid them in combat.

Differentiating between them and the Wargaz should be hard now.

Maybe for an outside race. I bet Northren and Wargaz can tell right away. Smells wrong.

I see those Chosen as being less the zealous loyal worshiper types and more the mercenary power hungry types. The first of them were forced to accept the gifts or die and the Sea gods actions have thus far been fairly hostile to mortals (do what I say or suffer the consequences). Amphros is more likely to gain Fear than he is Zealous or Loyalty. Not that I think he'd get fear with so many other gods to contend with for that one.

I hope other sources of power play as much of a role in a gods abilities as do worshipers. Ssome of the gods will never have many direct worshipers. Neshara (when she is born) wouldn't want to rely on direct worship for her power, other sources would be more appropriate.

The Wargaz also look humanoid, but more feral and vile/vicious.

The first quality does not apply to those arctic wolves, while the second does not apply to Northren.

Yes, ofc. But guess who could be blamed if some wargaz decided to raid the country? :P

Precisely, the Northren created by the Winter Lord look more or less human. They have naturally white hair and grey eyes, and perhaps sharper facial features but they are really human in most respects, and should be quite intelligent and cunning by now.

The wolves are the same species the Northren were created from, but bound to obey. They are no, in any sense of the word, domesticated or tame. :)

That is a possibility yes, and would be in keeping with the Wargaz. I'm all for some deep enmity between the races.

Also the Northren don't know much about the world outside of their settlements, and I'd expect most people wouldn't know much about them. There will be some serious culture shock when they start moving around more.

The Northren and people from Dordrath know one another, but besides that..

Not much.
And even mostly traders/caravaneers know the Northren.
