Renown Mechanics

Renown is the total sum of Fame and Infamy and Reputation is also calculated from Fame and Infamy. The base Fame and Infamy of each character depends on the rank of the character’s house as well as various positive and negative modifiers. Those assets and flaws that work as modifiers on Fame and Infamy may also affect the amount of Fame and Infamy gained and lost through for example +rumors. Finally, Tier is also factored in.
