I'm in the process of putting the finishing touches on the character sheets, so expect to see them soon. While I'm working on that, though, I thought it would be a good idea to let you see some of the stats and variables that you'll be seeing in the game. For example, every character has a financial state and a reputation, and their scales work like this:

• Finances: (bankrupt!, deep in debt, begging, poor, getting by, secure, rich, wealthy, legendary!)
• Reputation: (despised!, reviled, dishonored, indifferent, respected, honored, revered!)

Your character's access to money and resources may, of course, change over the course of the game. And their popularity will almost certainly wax and wane.

The nation as a whole has some stats as well:

The National Army…

• Loyalty to: the Revolution (strong, wavering, none)
• Morale: (Spirited, Steadfast, Moderate, Shaken, Broken)
• Material: (Well-supplied, Adequate, Low, Poor, Desperate)
• Attributes: (list of additional adjectives describing it)

National treasury: (bankrupt!, deep in debt, begging, poor, getting by, secure, rich, wealthy, legendary!)

The National Assembly…

• Political Balance: Balanced (0) or X faction is in power
• Currently debating: …
• Major political factions: …

These will change too, and there will be an announcement once per cycle updating you on where the nation is as a whole.
