Base Chance

There are many factors involved in calculating the player's chances at succeeding with a proposition:

• (INT+CHARISMA+Manipulate)/3.
• Power Value.
• Influence.
• Accumulated Palace Rating.
• Senate ranking.
• Difficulty adjustment.
• Dissidence.
• Hygiene and apperance.
• Quest boosters. - this can be achieved by completing Aria Bianchi's "New World Order" quest, giving the player a +10 chance.
• Bribes and additional Influence spent. - the player can spend $75,000 in bribes or/and 10,000 Influence to further boost their chance of success by 15 each.

Honorary Titles Appointment

If the player has chosen to help Aria Bianchi in accomplishing her goal of overthrowing Chancellor Mordecai Adler, they will be granted the ability to choose one of the three honorary titles Aria prepared for them.

Honorary Marshal

The player enjoys the same benefits as the Marshal of Ikaanos, Erza Waylen, but without the responsibility and twelve-hour shifts, seven days a week.
Effects:

• Ammo Pack trait (MC): This trait costs the republic a random amount of cash (up to $2,000) per day for The Republic and becomes inactive if The Republic's Control falls below 10 or if The Republic's cash is less than $5,000,000.
• +100 Influence/day.

State Academist

The player is appointed an honorary professor of The Academy and enjoys a great boost to daily lecture income thanks to their fame.
Effects:

• +400/day in lecture incomes.
• +50 Influence/day.

Above The Law

The player is exempted from paying taxes and receives a shady (but completely safe!) Retainer income directly from The Republic treasury.
Effects:

• Tax is reduced to $0.
• Retainer: +$100/day.

Notes

• The player can only carry one active title at the same time.
• When clearing a title, the Ikaanian bureaucracy subjects the player to a five day cooldown before they are able to select a new one.
• Many titles may weaken The Republic's finances. Having no title automatically provides a +3 Affection boost (up to Soulmate) for Aria Bianchi.
