Gaining
a Knighthood and determining the specific order
If a PC
receives three Renown points in one adventure (With one point for Patriotic
Service and one point for Military or Heroism), then that PC is eligible for
knighthood. PCs must roll their Social Level modified by the number of Renown
points over three on a D6 to confirm the knighting. (The GM can omit this roll in
cases of unquestionable acts or duties such as personally saving a member of
the Royal family).
All PCs
initial knight is at the lowest level for the order appropriate to where they
were knighted. However, for each +1 PC made confirmation roll by, bumps the
rank by one. PCs with SL6 the initial knighting is automatic with each subsequent
knighting failing only on a roll of six. Example: PC is on Mars and gains four
Renown points and is SL4 with a die roll of two equals a +3 difference. Thus PC
is knighted as a Companion in the Order of the Indian Empire. The three ranks
of the Imperial Order of the Crown Colonies being ranked below the Order of the
Indian Empire.
