Social Impact

Social Impact is a stat: A multiplier on how much other people are affected by this person's social interactions. Its minimum allowed value is 20%. Its default value is 100%.

Social impact affects the Opinion bonuses and maluses pawn interactions can create, as well as the outcome of three Rituals: the Leader's Leader Speech , the Moral Guide's Conversion Ritual , and the Praetor's (or higher) Throne Speech . Protective gear can be swapped for social gear before a ritual to improve the likelihood of a good outcome.

• It does NOT directly affect trade prices as that is instead dependent on Trade Price Improvement
• It does NOT directly affect prisoner recruitment beyond slightly hastening how quickly the prisoners like the warden, as recruitment is dependent on Negotiation Ability.
• It does NOT directly affect peace talks, as those are dependent on Negotiation Ability.
• It does NOT directly affect the Moral Guide's Convert ability, as that is dependent on Negotiation Ability ^[Verify].

A pawn with a high social impact will probably also score high in the other stats, as all four stats factor in a pawn's Social skill, Talking and Hearing capabilities. However, when looking for the best pawn to perform a given task it is best to check the relevant stat specifically, as there are some factors which only affect a single stat. For example, a top hat will not help with trade prices.
