i have to disagree with kittenpillar here. we should not explain our plans to the alpha, his anger shows that he is a weak leader and needs to be replaced. we should begin this by destroying any possible future allies of the alpha. we should swim away, towards the group of gork!s and then turn around and fire a number of high explosive spines, maximum pressure, into the pile of eggs to destroy them

Now what a smart and decietful plan, I luuurve it. we can place ourselves as the kamira alpha, I'm sure that will give us political status :3

I agree with vidboi only we should switch to our offspring first.

i think we should stay as the sire personally, as this attack and controlling the rest of the kamira will require experience. we can bring our child up as our powerful ally

Can we switch to our offspring later?
If we can then defeat the alpha, destroy the eggs, bring up perfectione electra (latin for amber perfection) then later become her
Our specific name is imperium ignis (latin for commanding fire).
Whaddaya think :)

I would say heresy but I have to agree, When we lost control of him he became a stupid overglorified thingy, Applies to every char that you played but you cease to play after a while.

The alpha wrenched control from the previous alpha, and he from the alpha before him. The kamira who you were controlling, is several generations dead. Silverware is correct.
If you want to switch to your offspring later, you'll have to hatch a new one. It will have the same evolutions as the previous, plus what you choose if you choose, as now all new kamira eggs will have strings+hardening agent.
If you meant 'later', as in 'mid-round', not 'mid-life', sure. You were going to do that anyways.

Votes to remain sire: Das_hexer, kittenpillar
Votes to become offspring: Bad boy, vidboi
Result: Tie, until this round it was offspring majority, so you become offspring


You heft your egg, and head towards the group of Gork! you saw. You mutter (translated) "Rally behind me, kill alpha", turn towards the alpha, and launch several highly explosive spines at the alpha, shouting your challenge. The older Kamira certainly didn't stay Alpha because of his physical fitness, but definitely because of his experience and mental prowess. He manages to dodge several most all of your spines, and duck behind cover, using unbalanced pressure to curve his spines at you from behind the rocks. After a few moments inactivity, probably from not being able to comprehend your daring of bringing allies into the fight, the Gork! start to pump slime at the alpha, and facing a multi-front assault, the alpha quickly falls. Now his chamber is yours, and the eggs inside under your care. You feel both contempt towards the eggs, wanting to destroy them, and the natural Kamira instinct to protect them. Speaking of which, you can feel the egg you're carrying start to crack. You let go...

--------------------------------------------------

You are now a newly hatched Kamira, having broken out of the shell that protected you for what felt like too long. You can see your sire pushing the remains of another Kamira towards some bright orange Gork!, and feel reverence towards your sire, as your instinct tells you he is the current Alpha. To be the child of the alpha means nothing special, though, unless he changes how the Kamira chain of command works, though. You can see within his chambers several eggs within also starting to hatch, and your sire destroying others.
You notice you have some organs which he does not. You have a gland just underneath your mouth, which is capable of producing some sort of fluid that quickly becomes rock hard when you squeeze some out, and on your backside is a set of glands that produce fine strings. And the Kamira hatching and escaping from your sire's wrath, also appear to have the same glands and threads.
You also deduce that you have hatched in the central tunnel, and that the Gork! are now basking in the light of the Great Glow stone.

Wander around perfectione electra is a very curious kamira, say hello to the Gork! and have a chatter, show them our abilities and show off a little, but not in a stuck up way, in a subtle way.

You talk to some of the nearby Gork!. The one that appears to be this group's leader is busy talking with the Alpha, your sire, and so you talk with the others. They just helped your sire become the alpha, violently, apparently, and one mentions that the one you've guessed to be their temporary leader mentioned forcing the Kamira out of the Central Tunnel, which would probably be bad for both the Gork! and Kamira in the long run, since the Central Tunnel is where the Gork! and Kamira gather to go hunting, and is where the Alpha resides, and so it would hurt relations between the species, and since both protect each other from threats they cannot handle alone, his suggestion was horrifying.
Even with the Gork! now being able to make crystal armor. And when the Gork! mentions that, you take this as an opportunity to show it that you can create strings and coat them with your new hardening agent to create rods, even curved or looped ones, and use several of them to make a hard shell, too.
They seem impressed, that you can make more hardened stuff with less, but point out that your armor is good for a couple hard impacts, with large blunt objects, but that even tiny horns or teeth pass right through, and slime jets pass through much easier. Well. You're better, and you're worse.

Oh no! look at your rank!
Anyway, let us say the idea of a builder faction, and see if they agree, we could create a great shrine supported by hardened threads surrounding the glow stone with the crystal to amplify Its power.
Also, make a buff gork statue out of our hardening agent and put it near the crystal kamira :3

Mutiny? I think not. This heresy shall be purged with extreme prejudice, I vote we alert the higher ranked kamira broods of this corruption along with the gork broods.

Spoiler!
What about my rank...?

...

Oh, cool! I gots a custom rank!
You decide to create a shrine to the new found ability to create stuff, by both species.
You ask around for a moment, looking for Kamira and Gork! capable of creating higher quantities of building materials. You find that only the most recent generation of Kamira are capable of creating anything for building, period, and so the small group you gather is made much more of Gork! than your fellow Kamira.
But having gathered a "build team", you notice some of the Gork! also gathering a build team, but for a different purpose, and they want your help for their projects. While you want to make a shrine outside the nest, they want to make a refractive chandelier made with Gork! crystals, and hung with Kamiran coated threads, to make the Glow Stone work better, and then make a separate nest else where, moving out entirely.
But gathering each of your respective build teams has taken so long, and I actually rolled for this, that you don't have time to actually build anything this round. So, you get to decide whether to help the other group.

B Anarchist usually don't last long
C I still vote for hivemind

I say we group up with build teams and create engraved defense positions in the opening of our haven. Fortified bunkers amirite?
