"You seem willing to poison, explode and burn our own country, rather than allow the Trolls to have it, Advisor Kilakan. A sound strategy when fighting in enemy lands, but not one to employ in our own!" (Advisor Kilakan, -1 support, -1 favor)
"Humble Farmer Nirur Torir, you are forgiven for your foolishness, being but a lowly farmer. Trolls are in fact, cunning and dangerous opponents and would not fall for such a simple ruse."
"Advisor Ochita, despite your previous foolishness, this idea shows merit. Magic and subterfuge work where simple steel may fail." (Ochita, +1 favor)
"I have heard enough-Talarion is my new head advisor! He will bear the responsibilty of all the decisions I make. Or, we make. Together. You know."
For the new Meeting Room, he decides on Advisor Kilakans war table-the King is very fond of maps-and Advisor Talarions marble throne. Head Advisor Talarion is given credit for the idea, and told to procure the items in question. (Kilkan +2 favor) (Talarion +4 favor)
"Advisor Shootandrun, your skills at seamanship seem sufficent. Have you knowledge in naval combat and merchanteering?"
"BnR0cK, your strange style of dress and manner of speaking do not tell me who you are. What land do you exactly hail from? We have need of a new jester...as you can see. Tell me your a bard. I would *love* to have a bard."
Rumblebumblings-on-windywaters is rebelling? Didn't we put down rebellion last year? Who was responsible for that?
"Advisor hubris_incalculable, I am glad to see you safe, anyway."
He hears someone squaking about military strategy, and responds
"Advisors Furtuka! I order you to retake my town, while sparing as many lives as possible! You will control one army, and if thou proves thyself, perhaps you will gain the position."
He motions for Cartographer Kinsen to approach. "I do have a job for you-the land of the Polar Trolls to our North needs to be mapped. This might take a few years, but can I trust you to lead the expedition?"
He notices the spellcasters are ready.
"Necromancer, let fly your terrible magic!" (effect=3)
The Necromancer sways and chants, but she loses her concentration when the mage whispers
"Amateur"The corpse of the Jester is still, but then it trembles and stands, swaying slightly. The King wishes he were more...animated. Advisor Furtuka earns an ominous glare. (Furtuka, -1 Favor)
"Now, Magician, bind his spirit!" (effect=4)
The magican seems more prepared, and he claps his hands once. There is an intake of air, as the Jester spirit is forced back into his zombie form. This pleases the King, greatly-the zombie seems to be moving faster now, and he credits Advisor Taricus for implementing the plan. (Taricus +2 Favor)
Advisosr Taricus recieves a smile and a nod from the King. "If you could have it, what position would you desire, Advisor Taricus? I am eager to hear your opinion"
Advisor Kilkan was currently being considered for Head Advisor, with suggestions from other advisors, and has made a token gesture, but he was not heard. His way of defending from invading Trolls was not well recieved. (+0 support)
Advisor Talarion is also currently being considered for Head Advisor, with suggestions from other advisors, and has made both a humble gesture, and suggested a new meeting room, impressing the King greatly. He has been given the job. (+3 support)
Advisor Shadenight is currently being considered for Military Leader, but has yet to offer tale of his military prowess
Advisor Furtuka is currently being considered for Military Leader, but has yet to retake the rebelling town
Advisor Taricus is currently being considered for Interior Minister
Advisor Digitual Hellhound is being considered for Head Diplomat
Advisor Shootandrun is being considered for Naval Leader, and has offered a good resume (+1 support)
Humble Farmer Nirur Torir is being considered for Head of Agriculture, but is not a noble, and will likely need to be sponsored by a royal advisor. (-2 support)
Cartographer Kinsen is being considered for a suicide mission to the lands of the Man Eating Polar Trolls, and has not disagreed (+1 support)

Choosing a Head Advisor
The King wants new throne though, and a large table, for the planning room. (describe them in detail)
Put down the rebellion in Rumblebumblings-on-windywaters with minimal loss of life
----------------------------------
Good ideas get you favor, ideas that work give you favor, suggesting good ideas first that work out give you the most.
If your suggestions fail, or otherwise don't produce, favor goes down.
Roleplaying wise, I'm much more likely to listen to someone with a higher level of favor.
Starting off, I'll roll 1d6 for every person that expresses interest in a cabinet position.
