'''Titles''' are a mechanic introduced in the [[Royalty]] DLC, representing power and prestige from the [[Empire]].
+
{{rewrite}}
−
{{TOCright}}
 
−
== Summary ==
 
−
Titles are obtained by spending '''Honor''', the currency of the Royalty system. Honor is offered as a [[quest]] reward, or can be purchased from Royal Tribute Collector caravans in exchange for either [[gold]] or [[prisoners]].
 
  
−
Titles come with demands. From the title of Acolyte onwards, the title holder will start to demand certain apparel, a proper throne room, and more prestigious bedrooms. There are also limits on [[recreation]]. Empire guests and colonists with certain [[traits]] will be ''conceited'' and have more demands. In exchange, the empire will grant increasing levels of [[Psycasts|Psylink]], and give you access to [[#Permits|Permits]].
+
Titles are a new mechanic in the [[Royalty]] DLC. They allow the bearer to trade with and call help from the [[Empire]], but in exchange the bearer has an increasing number of demands to maintain their mood.
  
−
Titles are retained if you become [[goodwill|hostile]] to the [[empire|empire faction]], though using permits is disabled until relations are restored. Titles can be renounced at the pawn's Bio screen.
+
== Mechanics ==
 +
Titles increase in level, starting at Freeholder, increasing to Yeoman, Knight / Dame, Praetor, Baron / Baroness, and Count / Countess. Further ranks include Duke / Duchess, Consul, Stellarch, and Emperor / Empress, but these are not achievable by colonists during standard gameplay. Starting at Acolyte, the title holder will start to demand certain apparel, rooms, and furniture, and may begin to refuse to do particular types of work if the pawn has certain traits. These are listed in the table below.  
  
−
'''Special Traits:'''
+
Titles are granted upon reaching a certain threshold of [[Honor]]. Upon leveling up, you will receive a quest to accept a Bestowing Ceremony. Upon accepting the quest and performing the ceremony, your pawn will also gain levels of their [[Psylink]]. All titles, starting at Yeoman, allow an increasing level of psycast.  
−
*[[Ascetic]]s do not have royal demands, overriding the clothing and bedroom needs entirely. They'll need a throne in an enclosed room, but do not care if throne requirements are unmet. However, their throne room's Impressiveness will affect their mood, positively or negatively. Note that Ascetics will need to meet throne requirements to get their title, and that the [[Psycasts#Dignified|meditation effectiveness]] of the throne remains improved by meeting the title requirements.
 
−
*Pawns with the [[Nudist]] and [[Cannibal (Trait)|Cannibal]] traits prefer being nude or eating human meat over their title requirements.
 
−
*[[Slaves]]{{IdeologyIcon}} can be given Honor, and will rank up as usual, with the same clothing and room requirements. However, they are unable to use permits, and slavery overrides conceited pawns' inability to work. There is a bug where slaves in a [[caravan]] can use their permits.{{Check Tag|Check for 1.4}}
 
  
−
=== Conceited pawns ===
+
All titles, starting at Acolyte, desire clothes fit for their station - royal clothing, eltex apparel or prestige armor. Titles of this and higher level also require other specific apparel choices that are listed below. Titles of Acolyte and above also require a throne room, and have minimum requirements for bedrooms. These requirements include a minimum number of tiles of room area, and in many cases, a minimum impressiveness. All throne rooms require 2 braziers which must be lit. All bedrooms require at least a [[double bed]]. All throne and bed rooms must be fully floored i.e. no dirt or rough stone. Note that a [[Circadian half-cycler]] does not negate the desire for a bedroom, even though it negates the need for it.
−
{{Stub|section=1|reason=What happens when you disable Abrasive with the Kind gene on pawns who are only Conceited because of the Abrasive trait}}
 
−
Pawns that are guests from, or are recruited from, the [[Empire]] faction, and those with the [[Greedy]], [[Jealous]], or [[Abrasive]] traits, are Conceited and will have greater royal demands. They will refuse to do work of certain types, and will only eat certain types of food.{{Check Tag|Clarification needed|Will they ever eat low-class food by themselves (e.g. if nothing else AND/OR if starving)? Will they eat it if the player orders? Will they eat it if fed given it as a prisoner? Will they eat it if fed it as a patient?}} Conceited nobles that eat food not in their allowed list will receive {{Thought|desc=That meal was below my station. My title's formal requirements should always be respected.|label=Ate low-class food|value=-8|duration=1}}. Note that [[hemogen pack]]s{{BiotechIcon}} count as food for this purpose, even when being consumed for [[hemogen]]{{BiotechIcon}} and not [[saturation]].
 
  
−
Barons or Counts (and higher) will replace their regular [[Mood#Expectation moodlets|expectation moodlets]] with a {{--|6}} and {{--|12}} penalty, respectively.
+
Additionally [[Titles#Conceited_vs_Non_Conceited|Conceited]] nobles will refuse to do more types of work as they increase in rank. Non-conceited pawns do not refuse to do any type of work.  
  
−
The game will show a popup warning if you attempt to give a conceited pawn royal honor.
+
Some titles come with recreation limits. These, and other limits, generally remain and grow from rank to rank, such that a Baron has all the limits placed on a Praetor, and more.
  
−
===Honor===
+
Starting at Acolyte, Nobles gain the ability to call in [[Permits]], with additional, more powerful abilities being made available at Praetor and Baron. These abilities can be used for free, but trigger a cooldown before they can be used freely again.  
−
Honor is a direct reward for empire [[quest]]s that gives access to the empire's titles. Selling gold, prisoners, or  [[slave]]s{{IdeologyIcon}} to a [[royal tribute collector]] also gives Honor. The pawn that does the selling gets the honor.
 
−
[[Skills#Social|Social]] skill or other social factors do not affect honor gain, but the pawn has to be [[Incapable|capable]] of Social in order to initiate trade.
 
  
−
*Selling [[prisoner]]s or slaves gives 3 honor per pawn. They must be able to walk while being sold, but no other qualities matter. This gives the regular penalties for selling humans.
+
Couples containing one or more nobles can still share a bedroom. Additionally, any number of nobles can share a throne room, however they need individual thrones and the title's usual requirements must still be met.
−
**It is possible to use the [[Psycasts#Pain block|pain block]] psycast to temporarily make a pawn mobile, then rescue the now-Empire pawn for a [[goodwill]] boost.
 
−
*[[Gold]] gives 0.015 point of Honor per gold item, rounded down. Therefore, the amount of gold per honor:

== Bestowing ceremony ==
+
=== Conceited vs Non Conceited ===
−
{{see also|Quests#.3CPAWN_NAME.3E.27s_.3CNEW_TITLE.3E_Ceremony{{!}}Quests}}
+
Titled pawns with the Greedy, Jealous, or Abrasive traits become Conceited after gaining Titles, and refuse to do certain types of work as they rise up the ranks.
−
The lowest title, Freeholder, is automatically 'purchased' as soon as a pawn earns his first point of Honor. Any further titles must be obtained through the bestowing ceremony.
+
Titled pawns without those traits can continue to do all types of work they used to be able to even after gaining higher titles.
  
−
A colonist with enough honor for a new title can accept the received quest to invoke the [[Empire#Bestower|bestower]], a ceremonial priest-like figure who arrives by [[shuttle]] with a retinue of guards. To accept the quest, the pawn to be bestowed must have a throne room that meets the requirements, even if they themselves do not care about it. There is no room requirement for Freeholder and Yeoman ranks. The bestowing ceremony will be performed in the throne room assigned to the pawn to be bestowed upon. If the throne room no longer meets requirements, or is unassigned from the pawn, then the quest will fail and the bestower will return home. If no such room is available, the bestower will instead attempt to find a [[party spot]] and failing that pick a social gathering spot.{{Check Tag|Confirm Social Spot|Party spot is right, needs more testing to verify whether they target social gathering spots}} The ceremony itself gives the psylink upgrade and title. The bestower carries 2 [[psylink neuroformer]]s; if you wish, you may [[down]], arrest, or kill the bestower to steal them. Bestowers will leave if they are exposed to dense{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Define: Dense}} [[tox gas]] or [[rot stink]].
+
=== Effects of other Traits===
 +
In addition to other the Conceited mechanics, several other [[traits]] also affect the needs of nobles.  
  
−
If the quest fails for any reason except promotion to a higher rank, it will reoccur after a period of time.{{Check Tag|How long}}
+
[[Traits|Ascetic]] bedroom and food requirements override title requirements, and thus Ascetics still prefer an awful bedroom and raw or simple food. They also do not need to wear noble apparels. Moreover, Throne Room requirements (braziers, drapes, instruments, size, flooring) do not need to be satisfied.  They do still need a throne room to satisfy their need for Authority (No authority results in a -18 moodlet), and based on the [[Room_stats#Impressiveness|Impressiveness]] of the room they may get a negative moodlet (-6 for awful, -2 for dull (with the moodlet "mediocre throne room", possibly a bug)) if the room is less than Mediocre.  In practice, this means that an Ascetic Count/Countess (or any title) may be kept happy with raw food, a 1x2 awful bedroom, and a 3x3 smooth stone throne room with a normal throne and a light source.  Do also note that having a throne room that meets or exceeds the requirements and is sufficiently impressive can result in a positive moodlet, which may be useful but is a very expensive way to get a mood bonus.  
  
−
If you receive enough honor to qualify for a higher title, then the lower title's bestowing ceremony will be skipped entirely. Note that this can result in lost opportunities to gain honor from the skipped ceremonies, but you will still receive all of the missed psycasts that you would have gotten if you hadn't skipped the lower titles.
+
[[Traits|Cannibal]] Nobles can eat human meat without penalty, and gain the normal positive moodlets from doing so. It is currently unknown if Simple Meals with Human Meat are allowed.  
  
−
The ceremony is considered a [[ritual]] and its outcome affects colonist mood. It can also grant extra honor based on ritual quality, up to a maximum of 3 honor at >90% quality. Quality is determined by participant count and room impressiveness. This is independent from the actual outcome.
+
[[Traits|Nudists]] are not exempt from the need to wear Noble-specific clothing, and still take the penalty from wearing any clothes at all. This results in a Nudist Noble always having a negative moodlet of some kind.

=== Inheritance ===
+
A colonist with enough honor for a new title can accept the received quest to invoke the [[Empire#Pawns|bestower]], a ceremonial priest-like figure who arrives by [[shuttle]] with a retinue of guards. He goes to the colonist's throne room, confirming that it satisfies the title requirements, and does the bestowing ceremony there. The ceremony itself gives the psylink upgrade and title. You can also betray the bestower to steal psylink neuroformers if you wish.
−
Titles from Acolyte onwards are able to be inherited. Heirs are automatically assigned, with additional weight towards spouses. They can be changed from a [[comms console]]; in order for heirs to actually change, you must complete a monument [[quest]]. Failure to complete the quest in time gives a [[goodwill]] penalty and causes no change.
 
  
−
When a noble dies, the heir will automatically gain the Freeholder title, if they didn't already have honor. They must begin a bestowing ceremony to obtain their proper rank. Should the noble be [[Resurrector mech serum|resurrected]], the title is lost, even if the bestowing ceremony hasn't begun yet.
+
=== Inheritance and Renouncing ===
 +
Heirs are automatically assigned with additional weight to spouses. Can be changed by using a [[Comms console]] and performing a ritual.
 +
Should a noble die and be [[Resurrector mech serum|resurrected]], the heir keeps the title.
 +
Titles can be renounced.

''Initiate a speech from the throne. '''<PAWN NAME>''' will go to '''<PAWN POSSESSIVE>''' throne and call all colonists to listen to a speech there. If all goes well, listeners will feel inspired, and gain respect for '''<PAWN NAME>'''. If it goes poorly, the speech will do social damage. The outcome depends on '''<PAWN NAME>''''s social abilities.'' - In-Game Description
 +
At Praetor rank, Nobles gain the ability to give speeches. This ability is manually trigged by the player. These speeches have a cool down, require an assigned throne, and cannot happen while another gathering is happening. Speeches last 4 hours. Like weddings and parties, undrafted pawns will attempt to attend. Pawns must attend to gain the benefits or detriments of the speech.
  
−
*'''Freeholder (1 honor):''' The Imperial title of freeholder is used by the Empire to signifies a fully-respected individual. Most Imperial citizens earn it while young through volunteer work or military service. The title is also offered to outsiders who act with honor in the eyes of the Empire.
+
A speech grants attendees a [[Mood#Gatherings|moodlet]] and changes the listener's opinion of the speaker, both proportional to the success of the speech. A "Terrible Speech" will grant a -12 negative mood to attendees and a -30 opinion of the speaker. An "Uninspiring Speech" will grant a -4 negative mood to attendees and a -15 opinion of the speaker. An "Encouraging Speech" will grant a +4 positive mood and a +20 opinion of the speaker. An "Inspirational Speech" grants a +8 to mood and a massive +40 opinion of the speaker. In addition, each listener of an Inspiring Speech has a 5% chance of getting an [[inspiration]].
−
*'''Yeoman (7 honor):''' The Imperial title of yeoman is held by those who serve a noble lord in an important, specific way. While it is not a noble title, it does give the holder the right to use low-level psychic abilities. This title is often held by senior soldiers, warskiff pilots, spies, advisors, diplomats, intrusion operatives, and other key individuals. Many important people spend their entire lives as yeomen, seeking success outside the strictures of nobility.
 
−
*'''Acolyte (13 honor):''' The title of acolyte is the first title of noble duty, an encompasses a wide range of practical positions. Some acolytes are purely students, learning to lead troops, manage societies, or use psycasts in specialized schools. Others come from wealthy families and might own city buildings or farm complexes. During wartime, an acolyte might lead a platoon of troops, captain a small frigate, or serve their lord as an advisor. Their low rank within the nobility makes them paradoxically less useful as diplomats than yeomen. Sending a low-ranked acolyte to a negotiation can itself be seen as an insult, whereas a non-noble yeoman negotiator is seen only as the mouthpiece of his lord.
 
−
*'''Knight/Dame (21 honor):''' The title of knight is held by nobles who have largely passed their training, but who have not ascended to higher leadership roles. Many knights never advance further, and spend their lives as respected managers, advisors, or warriors. Most knights have some wealth, but a few remain quite poor while others may be very rich. In peacetime, a knight may manage a factory complex, commercial district, or small farming region. In war, some knights lead troop companies and assault squadrons, while psychic-focused knights engage in espionage, sabotage, and battlefield psychic combat.
 
−
*'''Praetor (31 honor):''' The title of praetor is a bridge between the service-oriented lower titles below and the power-holding nobility above. During peacetime, a praetor will usually manage a city district, asteroid sector, or agricultural region. During war, they take authority over the smallest combat units that fight independently - terrestrial troop cohorts, or space-borne destroyers or combat groups.
 
−
*'''Baron/Baroness (45 honor):''' The title of baron is the lowest of the middle nobility. While lower titles focus on personal service at war or commerce under a lord, barons hold title as semi-independent rulers. Each baron is subordinate to his liege lord, but his obligations are mostly in supplying wealth and troops, and not in personal service. In the Empire, a baron will typically own a city sector, mining colony, or similar outfit. At wartime, a baron may captain a capital ship in name, or control a regiment of troops.
 
−
*'''Count/Countess (65 honor):''' The title of count is the middle rank of middle nobility. In peacetime, counts hold title to a city or colony, and might have a small personal fleet, possibly including capital ships.
 
  
−
===Unobtainable===
+
The cooldown between uses of the speech ability varies by rank. At Praetor rank this cooldown is {{ticks|1200000}} or 20 in-game days.  At Baron rank this cooldown is {{ticks|900000}} or 15 in-game days. At Count rank this cooldown is {{ticks|600000}} or 10 in-game days. While Nobles above the rank of Count are not generally available to the player, if one is gained by for example by recruiting an [[Empire]] prisoner, then they will have the same cooldown as the Count.
  
−
These titles cannot be obtained without the use of mods.
+
While the speech success chance is proportional to the [[Skills#Social|Social skill]] of the speaker, the exact relationship is unknown.
 +
Similarly, it is known that the [[Social Impact]] stat also improves chances, but the exact relationship is once again unknown. Despite this, it is known that it provides a significant improvement, which give the headwear all speech-giving nobles ask for have a practical use. Prestige helmets are still highly recommended, but swapping to a [[top hat]] just the length of the speech is a good idea.
  
−
*'''Duke/Duchess:''' The Imperial title of duke is the highest of the middle nobility. In the Empire, dukes control provinces, mega-cities, or moons. At war, a duke can field a division-level force, or a fleet with capital ships and dozens of support craft.
+
=== Decrees ===  
−
*'''Consul:''' The Imperial title of consul is a lower level of high nobility. In the Empire, consuls control planets. At war, a consul can usually field an army-sized force of multiple divisions, supported by several fleets. Some command from a super-capital ship or control space-based megastructures. (Note: Consul is only obtainable if Stellarch is converted to your colony as a colonist.)
+
Issue quests with no reward, increasingly negative moodlet if unfulfilled, positive moodlet +6 if fulfilled.
−
*'''Stellarch:''' The Imperial title of stellarch represents dominion over an entire star system. In the Empire, since interstellar travel times are years long, stellarchs rule their systems with a great degree of independence. They each swear fealty to the Emperor, but since the Emperor may be many light-years away, a stellarch may go years or decades without interacting with him.
+
Dying, being kidnapped, or renouncing a title ends any current decrees as of 1.1.2579.
−
*'''Emperor/Empress:''' The Imperial title of emperor indicates sovereign dominion over the entire Empire, all its peoples, planets, and fleets. All other lords swear fealty to a high lord, while the Emperor swears fealty to no one. However, even the Emperor depends on the support of lower nobles to remain in power. The emperor is never seen in the normal game.

==Requirements==
 
−
For a full list of requirements per title, see [[#Table of Requirements]].
 
−
 
 
−
=== Thrones and Bedrooms ===
 
−
Titles of Acolyte and above require a throne room and separate bedrooms. Both rooms must be fully [[floor]]ed, and higher ranks will require all fine floors. Couples can share a bedroom, regardless of nobility. Any number of nobles can share a throne room, though they need individual thrones. A [[Circadian half-cycler]] does not negate the desire for a bedroom, though pawns won't sleep in it.
 
−
 
 
−
As the titles increase in honor, so does the minimum requirement. Greater titles have an increasing minimum # of floor tiles, Impressiveness, and require specific furniture.
 
−
 
 
−
For the purposes of the throne room requirement, they cannot have beds, workstations, ritual buildings from [[Ideology]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, or any building under the [[Biotech]] {{BiotechIcon}} tab. However, they can function as Impressive recreation and dining rooms, giving your entire colony a mood buff. The [[meditation throne]] itself also functions as a chair, but the [[grand meditation throne]] can only be used for meditation and [[television]] watching.
 
−
 
 
−
[[Ascetic]] pawns do not have to meet bedroom requirements at all. They won't care if their throne doesn't meet requirements. However, they must have a suitable throne room to actually receive their title, and they will have reduced [[psyfocus]] from a throne if requirements aren't met.
 
−
 
 
−
=== Clothing requirements ===
 
−
Nobles of a rank that desire clothing will experience a {{--|4}} "''Want <TITLE>-specific apparel''" [[thought]] to their mood if any of their requirements are not met. For ranks that require a specific [[quality]], a separate stacking a {{--|4}} "''Want <TITLE>-quality apparel''" thought is applied if the items worn are not of the required quality.
 
−
 
 
−
Clothing requires that a noble is ''covered'' in suitable apparel, i.e. that all body parts have an associated apparel. For example, Counts (and below) can suffice with a [[cape]] and any suitable headgear, or the combination of headgear and [[formal shirt]], [[formal vest]] / [[corset]], and [[prestige robe]].
 
−
 
 
−
The [[Nudist]] trait{{Check Tag|Precept?|Do the nudist precepts override this requirement as well?}} overrides the clothing requirement, and Ascetic pawns ignore it.
 
−
 
 
−
===Food requirements===
 
−
Conceited nobles will refuse to eat certain foods, with fewer items being acceptable as the ranks increase. In general, all conceited nobles can eat [[lavish meal]]s, [[milk]], and other delicacies like [[insect jelly]] and [[chocolate]]. Ranks lower than Baron can eat [[fine meal]]s normally. If a noble is starving, then they will eat the meal at a {{--|7}} mood penalty. Non-conceited nobles have no such restrictions.
 
−
 
 
−
Conceited [[Cannibal (Trait)|Cannibal]] nobles can eat [[human meat]] without penalty, and gain the normal positive moodlets from doing so. However, they still refuse to eat improper meals that include human meat, and when eating said meals, they will ''not'' get the benefit from the Cannibal trait. [[Sanguophages]] {{BiotechIcon}} and other Hemogenic nobles can bloodfeed, but can't consume [[hemogen pack]]s.
 
−
 
 
−
===Work restrictions===
 
−
Conceited nobles will refuse to do certain work types; the restriction increases with each title. Conceited pawns up to Count will continue to do Doctor, Warden, Art, and Research work, but higher ranks can't do anything outside of combat. Non-conceited nobles have no such restrictions, as are nobles who are [[slaves|enslaved]]{{IdeologyIcon}}.
 
−
 
 
−
==Perks==
 
−
===Psylink===
 
−
{{Main|Psycasts}}
 
−
Every title, from Yeoman onward, grant an increase of 1 [[Psycasts#Psylink|Psylink]] level. If a pawn already matches their title's respective level (from [[psylink neuroformer]]s or [[anima tree]] linking), then no new levels will be given.
 
−
 
 
−
The bestower will implant a [[psylink neuroformer]] during the noble's bestowing ceremony, but they come with two. It is possible to arrest the bestower for an extra level, but this makes the empire faction hostile to you. If they are [[downed]] for other reasons (like [[heatstroke]]), you will still lose [[goodwill]].
 
  
 
=== Permits ===
 
=== Permits ===
−
Nobles that have reached Acolyte or higher will gain access to '''Permits'''. One permit is awarded for every title from Acolyte onwards, for a maximum of five permits for Counts/Countesses. Higher titles will give access to stronger permits. These can include item drops, immediate support, or even direct bombardments. Permits have a cooldown; if used during it, there is an Honor cost. A pawn can't demote themselves to use a permit again.
+
At certain levels nobles gain permits. You choose which royal permits you want to come with that title. There are more permits to choose from than before. Some permits require minimum titles before they can be chosen. This lets you customize your nobles somewhat. Permits generally cannot be used during their Cooldown, however [[Honor]] can be paid to use the permit again during the cooldown. It is unknown to this wiki if this can cause demotions or if you are just prevented from spending the permit if you do not have sufficient spare honor.  
−
 
 
−
Once picked, permits stay with your pawn, and can't be freely changed. You can return all permits and re-assign them again; this costs 8 honor ''and'' the costs of any permit currenlty in cooldown. New permits won't have a cooldown, as the cost has been paid.
 
−
 
 
−
You can't use permits if the [[empire]] faction is hostile from you. [[Slave|Enslaved]]{{IdeologyIcon}} nobles and guests from the [[Empire]] are also unable to use permits. If an NPC noble is captured, they will come with randomly assigned permits.
 
  
−
Permits are lost when titles are, such as upon revocation and death, inheritance, and resurrection.
+
NPC nobles will generate with a random number of permits appropriate to their rank.

{{Quote|Initiate a speech from the throne. '''<PAWN NAME>''' will go to '''<PAWN POSSESSIVE>''' throne and call all colonists to listen to a speech there. If all goes well, listeners will feel inspired, and gain respect for '''<PAWN NAME>'''. If it goes poorly, the speech will do social damage. The outcome depends on '''<PAWN NAME>''''s social abilities.|In-Game Description}}
+
*'''Freeholder:''' The Imperial title of freeholder is used by the Empire to signifies a fully-respected individual. Most Imperial citizens earn it while young through volunteer work or military service. The title is also offered to outsiders who act with honor in the eyes of the Empire.
 +
*'''Yeoman:''' The Imperial title of yeoman is held by those who serve a noble lord in an important, specific way. While it is not a noble title, it does give the holder the right to use low-level psychic abilities. This title is often held by senior soldiers, warskiff pilots, spies, advisors, diplomats, intrusion operatives, and other key individuals. Many important people spend their entire lives as yeomen, seeking success outside the strictures of nobility.
 +
*'''Acolyte:''' The title of acolyte is the first title of noble duty, an encompasses a wide range of practical positions. Some acolytes are purely students, learning to lead troops, manage societies, or use psycasts in specialized schools. Others come from wealthy families and might own city buildings or farm complexes. During wartime, an acolyte might lead a platoon of troops, captain a small frigate, or serve their lord as an advisor. Their low rank within the nobility makes them paradoxically less useful as diplomats than yeomen. Sending a low-ranked acolyte to a negotiation can itself be seen as an insult, whereas a non-noble yeoman negotiator is seen only as the mouthpiece of his lord.
 +
*'''Knight/Dame:''' The title of knight is held by nobles who have largely passed their training, but who have not ascended to higher leadership roles. Many knights never advance further, and spend their lives as respected managers, advisors, or warriors. Most knights have some wealth, but a few remain quite poor while others may be very rich. In peacetime, a knight may manage a factory complex, commercial district, or small farming region. In war, some knights lead troop companies and assault squadrons, while psychic-focused knights engage in espionage, sabotage, and battlefield psychic combat.
 +
*'''Praetor:''' The title of praetor is a bridge between the service-oriented lower titles below and the power-holding nobility above. During peacetime, a praetor will usually manage a city district, asteroid sector, or agricultural region. During war, they take authority over the smallest combat units that fight independently - terrestrial troop cohorts, or space-borne destroyers or combat groups.
 +
*'''Baron/Baroness:''' The title of baron is the lowest of the middle nobility. While lower titles focus on personal service at war or commerce under a lord, barons hold title as semi-independent rulers. Each baron is subordinate to his liege lord, but his obligations are mostly in supplying wealth and troops, and not in personal service. In the Empire, a baron will typically own a city sector, mining colony, or similar outfit. At wartime, a baron may captain a capital ship in name, or control a regiment of troops.
 +
*'''Count/Countess:''' The title of count is the middle rank of middle nobility. In peacetime, counts hold title to a city or colony, and might have a small personal fleet, possibly including capital ships.
 +
*'''Duke/Duchess:''' The Imperial title of duke is the highest of the middle nobility. In the Empire, dukes control provinces, mega-cities, or moons. At war, a duke can field a division-level force, or a fleet with capital ships and dozens of support craft.
 +
*'''Consul:''' The Imperial title of consul is a lower level of high nobility. In the Empire, consuls control planets. At war, a consul can usually field an army-sized force of multiple divisions, supported by several fleets. Some command from a super-capital ship or control space-based megastructures.
 +
*'''Stellarch:''' The Imperial title of stellarch represents dominion over an entire star system. In the Empire, since interstellar travel times are years long, stellarchs rule their systems with a great degree of independence. They each swear fealty to the Emperor, but since the Emperor may be many light-years away, a stellarch may go years or decades without interacting with him.
 +
*'''Emperor/Empress:''' The Imperial title of emperor indicates sovereign dominion over the entire Empire, all its peoples, planets, and fleets. All other lords swear fealty to a high lord, while the Emperor swears fealty to no one. However, even the Emperor depends on the support of lower nobles to remain in power.

−
{{Main|Decree}}
 
−
Nobles will sometimes issue quests with no reward except for a positive moodlet of +6 to the noble when fulfilled under ?? conditions. The noble that issued the decree  will experience an increasingly negative moodlet if the quest remains unfulfilled, starting at -?? and increasing by ?? after ??. Conversely, they will experience a positive moodlet of +6 if fulfilled. Decrees demand things such as producing, harvesting, or killing a certain amount of things.
 
−
Dying, being kidnapped, or renouncing a title ends any current decrees as of 1.1.2579.

−
The royal favor icon is reminiscent of the head of the [[eltex staff]] carried by the [[Empire#Pawns|Bestower]]. This is fitting, since the bestower grants the received titles to the pawn.
 
−
If the map is polluted enough,{{Check Tag|How polluted?}} the bestower will come with a gas mask instead of their usual headgear.
