Also rebelling is a tool used to increasing your Authority :crown: and Stability :dove:?

If not, what benefits it has exactly?

Coronation (Prologue)

Chancellor: Your Majesty, I’ve scheduled your coronation to take place in a week’s time.
Eliza: Shouldn’t I be giving orders now?
Chancellor: Of course, but to delay any longer would make the nobles… restless. And when nobles get restless, they take their daggers and look for the nearest back.
Eliza: Very well then, what must I do?
Chancellor: As is tradition, the Council will decide what happens during your coronation.
Monarch: What!? But it’s my coronation!
Chancellor: This isn’t an absolute monarchy, Your Majesty. Everything has to be run through a Council vote, even this. Shall we call the nobles in?

Vote: How should the coronation take place?

A: Host a lavish parade with jugglers and fountains of wine. (-1000 Treasury, +Stability)
Votes: Jake,
B: Force the commoners to swear a blood oath! (+Authority, -Stability)
Votes: Jane
C: Throw the Queen into the river. (+Stability, -Authority)
Votes: Kiiruma, Squirrel, Icet, Marshal, Hazard, catbae, Litten
D: Proceed with a religious ceremony that honors the Ninth God. (+Faith)

Please either ping me with your vote or reply to this message to vote. Ideally both.

#105

its an alternative, but risky win condition

#106

rebellion is for when your schemes aren’t working out too hot; Defiance lets you rebel if its higher than Authority and Stabiility (not combined)
so if you have a high enough defiance and you rebel, you gain an alternative win condition, but your scheme is paused while you do

What benefits does Faith :classical_building: bring?

#108

its just like any other stat

#109

it may influence events, and such, but still

#110

and some Schemes may require Faith
particularly the Counts and Grandees

#111

I wonder if it’s significant or the equivalent of LUK :four_leaf_clover: in a DnD inspired RP

#112

ehhh kinda
but not really
faith is, in my experience, the least influenced-by-events stat

#113

Time to disregard it I guess

you are literally a grandee half of your schemes require it

#115

I was under the impression that it wouldn’t be THAT significant

#116

the Counts typically want lower faith, which is good because they start with 4 faith
the Grandees typically want higher faith, which is good because they start with 7 faith

#117

oh no usually only one stage of your scheme will require it but

#118

Basically if my schemes are going wrong. Faith might be the problem!

perhaps
depends on the scheme

#120

the third stage of schemes are funny lore-wise because it’s supposed to be the hardest stage and then lore-wise its things like
“for what sin should we exocommunicate the Queen”
