A trickster can be modeled plenty of ways. After all, Air magic uses illusion to conjure up Phantasmal Warriors and Mirror Images. You'd maybe give them Glamour to indicate their face-changing abilities. Etc., etc.

And a spider god doesn't have to be -big-, per se. There's nothing that says a god has to tower over everyone and there are examples of gods taking on very normal mortal frames. I just think, given the amount of spider worship that goes on in Machaka, that they should maybe have, you know, a spider to worship. ;-)

Too late. Mod in progress. Currently:

Hunter Spider main form, Black Sorcerer alt. form. Pretender cost: 50, pathcost: 30, starting dominion 3.

Stealth, in one or both forms. Possibly Assassination, but probably not. Spy in stealthy form, more for information than for unrest-inducing abilities.

Needs more majicks.

Let's discuss this further, elsewhere.

I just noticed something very, very, very cool. Jotunheim Skratti. They are Skinshifters. They are shapechangers. Don't believe me?

Frej here had a Blood random. In Skratti form, he has W2B3. In Werewolf form, considerably less. Frej also happens to be much older than most Skrattis, but this doens't hamper him in his stronger forms.

And yes, that is a plural. Here, a stealthy form for a sneaky sorcerer! They can freely change shape between all of them, no less!

Oh, man. That's great, I can't wait to fiddle around with them.

Here's some UI stuff. Some of it I just discovered myself.

And a comparison. Also, notice the gems, season and your pretender's name in the top-right portion of the screen. The reason for the name? Click on it to instantly go to your pretender! You get to the province where he is, and he starts as selected. Actually, I'll take another pic to show you some of the other options and replace this one.
....

There! Now, notice the arrows? They are of different colors. Ygg has grey arrow, because he's sneaking. The name of my pretender, Brage, is red because I had my mouse over it. I had just clicked on it. Brage was automatically selected.
My scout from the first turn is in the third neighbouring land province. The scout icon is a triangle with an eye inside it.

And a third one! No pressing I anymore! Actually, that whole command has been removed from map view. Terrain is now visible straight from the screen, and so are the defenders. The unit icon shown on the map view is the one most numerous in that province. Lion Tribe Arhcers' icons aren't shown, because there aren't enough of them. I'm not sure how many units of the second type have to be there for them to appear in map view, but it's more than most independents have on default settings.
