Doing so is befriending, will cost you two actions but right away and from this point on you can give it orders as if it was your own PC (essentially, you have 2 PCs ). You can befriend as many NPCs as you have levels. Note tamed beasts don't count towards this.
Note, C7 needs to move North into your hex for you to befriend him. So between him moving north and you using befriend, both of you will only have 2 actions. I think since we're even split I'll work on making a larger map that incorporates both hexes now. Both hexes are now staying in contact during off turns.

Yes, you now are in control of C7. My bad. I'll be sure to update that bit when I post the next update, which will be delayed till tomorrow because I have to make a whole new map that shows BOTH hexes at once.

Just waiting for C2 and C4 to post their actions HERE so I can update. Remember, you're gaining 3 Creeps this turn, so you'll need a lot of berries at the start of the turn if you plan to not have some of them go hungry again.

Okay, C8 is coming up and Lentrax has commanded him to do stuff. If possible, I'd like my creep (C4) to befriend him without interfering with the actions that are already given, so I can control him without having to give orders from next turn on.
C4: Befriend C8 (x2), pick berries, eat berries.

Ok, will update this soon, just making sure I have all my numbers right on who's eaten, who's just getting hungry, and who's been hungry. I'm going to be busy all weekend, so I will resume the game on Sunday.

Blegh Real Life. Sorry for the huge delay, stuff got a bit crazy. Here's the update you guys were supposed to get on Friday.
C1(HerbieRAI) Order C5, Order C6, Order C9, Order C8
C2(Lentrax) Harvest Berries x3, plant berry
C3 Gather berry, gather berry, gather berry, gather berry
C4(Taffimai) Befriend C8 (x2), pick berries, eat berries(Now full)
C5 Gather berry, eat(Now full), move North (2)
C6 Gather berry, eat(Now full), move North (2)
C7(Lamech) Chop wood, gather fruit, eat the fruit, gather fruit
C8 Gather berry, eat(Now full), move North (2)
C9 Tend bush, tend bush, tend bush, gather berry
Crude Axe grants +1 CDR, and allows chopping down trees for Wood, requires 1 action and 1 wood
Crude Club grants +1 CDR, Requires 1 action and 1 wood
Crude Spear grants +1 CDR and DNR, Requires 2 actions and 2 wood
Wooden Shield grants +2 Defence, Requires 2 actions and 2 wood
Watchtower Grants +2 Defence against ranged attacks, +1 Combat to ranged attacks, Automatically deals 1 damage to 1 invading stack, can hold 3 units. Counts as a shelter. Takes 2 actions to get in or out of. Units set on Guard inside a Tower can watch 1 adjacent hex and learn whats in it every turn. Costs 3 wood and 2 actions to construct.
The two bushes that have been tended for the past 4 turns no longer require tending. They will now always grow 2 berries at the start of each turn.
North Hex
4 Berries are collected, 1 are planted, 1 eaten. 2 Rations remain.
Base Camp
8 Berries are collected, 3 eaten, 2 from previous turn. 7 Rations remain.
1 Wood collected, 0 Wood used. 3 from previous turn. 4 Wood remains
Turn ends, 6 Rations are consumed. (By C1, C2, C3, C4, C7, and C9)
C10 spawns next to hut.
C4: Pick berries and take them with me (x2), climb tree (x2)
C8: Give commands to C5, give commands to C6, plant berry, tend bush
Lentrax, which commands do you want me to give to C5 and C6? Planting more berries and tending bushes, or something else? I want you to be able to concentrate on your doggie.
Edit: Croverus, in the actions list, C8 is noted full, but in the unit stats, he's still hungry. Can you tell me which is correct so I can make him eat if necessary?

Yeah, planting and tending bushes sounds good. An I think I only need a few more turns training him.
Also, is there any way to stop more creeps from popping, or at least slow down how many turns between pops? Unless everyone is okay with it, but soon we will probably have too many on our hands to tend to.

He filled up during the turn, then when the new turn began he didn't have rations lying around so now he's hungry. Remember, planting a berry uses up a berry that has been picked. Right now the North Hex has only 2 pick berry actions. And both those berries are staying with Taff. So the orders to plant berries can't even be done until more are gathered.
Edit: Please be sure all final orders are bolded. I will disregard unbolded orders. If you change orders, strike through the old orders and make a new post with the change.

Yes, I'm letting them stay hungry. There are enough berries not to make the situation worse, but not to get everyone full at the same time.

I'm a bit confused how there could have been no rations lying around when we currently have two rations, however, we need them this turn, so C8 can stay hungry. Just making sure my calculations work out with nobody getting worse this time.

Only rations in the same hex help.
Giving a couple of people a chance to try claiming some of our NPCs, I believe C5 and C6 are neither PCs or befriended NPCs, correct?

Correct.
I'm still confused about the rations: C8 ended his turn in our hex, the North one, and it currently has two rations stored, so why didn't he eat one? Please know that I'm not trying to be difficult - I really don't care about him being hungry, and as I said, we need that one ration for this turn, so I'm happy with things how they are - but I have the unpleasant feeling that there's something I'm missing here.

Okay, then. Next turn I'm scouting the hexes around us, then the one after that I'll move C4 and C8 to the most interesting hex next to us to solve the food problem. This hex really doesn't support six of us.

2 things to note. Since they are not friends of yours, you must use the Order action to make them do anything. C1 has been doing it most of the game till he decided to send them your way. Unless someone tells them to do anything, they will automatically guard, then eat rations at the start of the next turn if there are any available.
Edit: Never mind, I now see you have one of the Befriended NPCs giving them orders
Please finalize orders within the next couple hours. Update will be around noon.
