Question World with core of fluctuating mass, phenotypic differentiation during gestation?
I'm creating a fantasy planet with an interior that has a god phasing in and out of our dimension, adding to and taking away mass in mysterious fashion while keeping everything but the influence of gravity stable, including air pressure.
