Thinking is hard, and I think I've already laid my reasons for why Flynn (And I) would choose these very fine ladies!
But in all seriousness, I don't see any bad picks in this, might not be the most optimal that said. I just vibe with the idea, is all!

Note: By sheer coincidence, this is only one advisor (Portio instead of Xiao Yun) away from Plan Agriculture, Event Mitigation, and No Assassinations.
I don't believe we're allowed to have more than one advisor per post. The conflicts in who has authority over what would likely become...problematic within each sphere.
Also, you're setting us up to not be able to pay our advisors after only two moths, which is pretty bad.
Wait nvm, I'm wrong. Pillow does mention slots.

Actually, the current winning plan is a Celestial Wizard rather than an Amber one. Still, the point does stand as she's the only other human Imperial. Gus is, at least, an Imperial Ogre, though. Heck, she's a veteran of the Imperial Military.
Fair, still if we had not made wizard a position or if we had chosen not to take a wizard colonial elves would have been the single largest voting block on the Council... Do you think Ulthuan suspects some kind of secret Asrai plan?
I know Raps isn't Asrai, but they do not.
We are well beneath Ulthuan's notice.Fair, still if we had not made wizard a position or if we had chosen not to take a wizard colonial elves would have been the single largest voting block on the Council... Do you think Ulthuan suspects some kind of secret Asrai plan?
I know Raps isn't Asrai, but they do not.
There might be an individual Asur who keeps an eye on expeditions to Lustria who will raise an eyebrow at the unusually multicultural leadership but that is about it.
Eh... I do not think the Phoenix King knows who we are or anything, but I think that someone in official power will notice, not because the humans are important, but because they have the ability to piss off the Slann.
If Ulthuan, the naval superpower of the planet, objected to Empire expeditions going to Lustria then there would be no expeditions getting to Lustria.
Ulthuan does not care if an army of Lizardmen has to raid Aldorf to get their sacred plaques back.

Doin' a few rolls for mysterious purposes.

Well, those are high rolls, so hopefully that's a good thing.

Never entirely sure what I'm doing
Yes-yes, very good-great thing.
Sidesnippet: Barrels.
"Y'see that barrel?"
"Wot?"
"Was that barrel always on the ship?"
"Woh..? I mean... Prolly? Sorta thing that's on ships, barrels."
"It's just, I thought that used to be on the dock, that barrel."
"Well maybe they loaded it."
"In the last ten minutes?"
"Just one barrel, innit? Nothin' strenuous. Anyhow, soddin'... Leave it. Shift changes in two ticks"
"Should we report it?"
"You want to spend a soddin' hour doing the paperwork? You'd Look like a bluddy lunatic anyhow, 'I saw a barrel on the ship'."
"It's just... C'mon... Barrels don't mo-"
"If you mention that morr-damned barrel one more time I'm gonna swot you with my billy, see if don't."

Huh, wonder why we got a sidesnippet about a barrel being on a ship. That's a perfectly ordinary place for barrels to be on, as addressed in the sidesnippet itself. Probably just Pillowsperky's eager to write something, not something that'll be relevant later on or anything.
I was eager to write something!
Perfectly ordinary barrel snippet, y'know? Just something to use my fingers for.
It was either this or a possibly-mature bunch of snippets showing the reactions of your chosen Colonist Groups.

A barrel would be a good place to stowaway.
No-no, I am confident-certain that this was an ordinary update-message about a perfectly normal barrel of definitely dead-inert stuff-matter in a barrel, as opposed to manlings or Skaven or any other living-breathing thing, perish the thought!
They care enough to check the ships for tablets.
My current mental debate is how fucking weird to go with your potential adventurers. They're far less 'story effecting', being basically semi-disposable mini-heroes, so honestly it's freeing to consider making one that's just obviously a Goblin who has painted himself cream-brown.

Maybe there could be a sliding scale of "weirdness" based on choices we make or a roll or something, where if we get a high value it becomes the WHF equivalent of Wild Wasteland from Fallout.
