Citizens & Traits
Every citizen is a tracked person with four inherited traits: Intellect, Vigor, Charisma, and Cunning. They breed forward across generations.
Every citizen is a real person the game keeps track of, with a name, a bloodline, and four traits. Your dynasty is the sum of these people and the choices you make about who they become and who they raise.
The four traits
Each trait runs from weak to exceptional and drives a different path.
| Trait | What it powers |
|---|---|
| Intellect | Knowledge, discovery, and scholarship. |
| Vigor | Food, strength, survival, and long life. |
| Charisma | Wealth, trade, and influence. |
| Cunning | Defense, negotiation, and the odds in a crisis. |
Legendary citizens
Once in a while a citizen grows exceptional in a trait and becomes Legendary. They get an epithet, a marked portrait, and an outsized effect on your civilization. A legendary birth is the kind of thing you remember a run for, and chasing them is half the fun.
Aging and lineage
Citizens age. Adults live two or three generations, then become elders, then die. Nothing lasts except what they leave behind. That is why who has children matters more than any single citizen. Your dynasty is bred forward one generation at a time.
