Titles are a mechanic introduced in the Royalty DLC, representing power and prestige from the Empire.

Summary

Titles are obtained from gaining 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 Psylink, and give you access to Permits.

Titles are retained if you become hostile to the empire faction, though permits are lost until relations are restored. Titles can be renounced at the pawn's Bio screen.

Special Traits:

  • Ascetics 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 mediation effectiveness of the throne remains improved by meeting the title requirements.
  • Nudist and Cannibal pawns prefer being nude or eating human meat over their title requirements.
  • SlavesContent added by the Ideology DLC 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 for 1.4]

Conceited pawns

Guests from the empire faction, and colonists 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. Barons or Counts (and higher) will replace their regular expectation moodlets with a -6 and -12 penalty, respectively.

The game will show a popup warning if you attempt to give a conceited pawn royal honor.

Honor

Honor is a direct reward for empire quests that gives access to the empire's titles. Selling gold or prisoners (but not when actually enslavedContent added by the Ideology DLC) to a Royal Tribute Collector also gives Honor. The pawn that does the selling gets the honor. Social skill or other social factors do not affect honor gain.

  • Selling prisoners 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.
    • It is possible to use the pain block psycast to temporarialy make a pawn motile, 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:
Gold Spent Honor Equiv. Market Value
Gold 67 1 670
Gold 134 2 1340
Gold 200 3 2000

Bestowing Ceremony

A colonist with enough honor for a new title can accept the received quest to invoke the 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. The bestower carries 2 psylink neuroformers; if you wish, you may arrest or kill the bestower to steal them. Bestowers will leave if they are exposed to dense[Detail needed] tox gas or rot stink.

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.

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.

Ritual Quality 0% 30% 60% 90%
Honor Gained 0 1 2 3

Inheritance

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 resurrected, the title is lost, even if the bestowing ceremony hasn't begun yet.

Titles

For a full list of titles and their requirements, see #Table of Requirements.

  • 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.
  • 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

  • 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. 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 floored, 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 IdeologyContent added by the Ideology DLC, or any building under the Biotech Content added by the Biotech DLC 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 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 meals, milk, and other delicacies like insect jelly and chocolate. Ranks lower than Baron can eat fine meals normally. Non-conceited nobles have no such restrictions.

Conceited 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. Sanguophages Content added by the Biotech DLC and other Hemogenic nobles can Blood feed, but can't consume hemogen packs.

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 enslavedContent added by the Ideology DLC.

Perks

Psylink

Every title, from Yeoman onward, grant an increase of 1 Psylink level. If a pawn already matches their title's respective level (from psylink neuroformers 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

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.

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. EnslavedContent added by the Ideology DLC 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.

Speeches

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 triggered by the player. These speeches have a cool down, require an assigned throne, and cannot happen while another gathering is happening. Speeches last 10,000 ticks (2.78 mins) or 4 in-game hours.

A speech grants attendees a 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. Each listener has a 5% chance of getting an inspiration.

Both Social skill and Social Impact can greatly improve success, but the exact relationship is unknown. Wear top hats, coronets, and other royal items that increase social impact.

The cooldown between uses of the speech ability varies by rank. At Praetor rank this cooldown is 1,200,000 ticks (333.33 mins) or 20 in-game days. At Baron rank this cooldown is 900,000 ticks (250 mins) or 15 in-game days. At Count rank or higher, this cooldown is 600,000 ticks (166.67 mins) or 10 in-game days.

Trading

A rank of Knight/Dame is required to trade with an empire faction base or trade caravan.

A rank of Baron/Baroness or higher is required to trade with the empire's trade ships.

Decrees

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.

Trivia

The royal favor icon is reminiscent of the head of the eltex staff carried by the Bestower. This is fitting, since the bestower grants the received titles to the pawn.
