Introduction
A bonus to your Seasonal Wage is given for a number of reasons. These are detailed below. Please note that any added bonus should be applied for with your Seasonal Wage, in the same application.
Higher Education
If you have a completed Higher Education Qualification you may apply the following to your Seasonal Wage.
- Letter = +1wp a Season
- Certificate = +2wp a Season
- Diploma = +3wp a Season
- Charter = +4wp a Season
- Licentiate = +5wp a Season.
These bonuses are NOT cumulative. If you have a Charter, you have +4 TOTAL, not +4 +3 +2 +1, and you always have +4, until you graduate to +5 for the Licentiate.
So, if your Seasonal Wage was 16wp/Season and you had a Charter, you would add +4wp to your wage for that Season. 16 + 4 = 20wp for that Season.
The next season, your Seasonal Wage would be 17wp/Season. If you still had a Charter, you would still add +4wp to your wage for that
Season. 17 + 4 = 21wp for that Season.
The next season after that, your Seasonal Wage would be 18wp/Season. If you had graduated to Licentiate, you would add +5wp to your
wage for that Season. 18 + 5 = 23wp for that Season.
Language Bonus
In order to promote and encourage long-term involvement in a city that a PC is invested in, a PC may opt into a "Loyalty Bonus" for the primary language of their city. If the PC remains in the city for one Cycle, they may take the primary language of that city up to the level of "Broken" for FREE. If they remain in the city for one Arc, they may take the primary language of that city up to "Conversational" for FREE.
This is explained as the PC picking up colloquialisms and other tidbits of the language in their everyday dealings in the city. The more time they spend in the city around the languages, the more they would recognize the intricacies of the language they are commonly around.
Additionally, a PC who is FLUENT in the primary language of their city may add a bonus to their wage IN THAT CITY. So if the PC is fluent in Ith'ession and works in Etzos, any Wealth Threads completed in that area would be subject to the bonus. However, if the same PC moves to Rhakros, the bonus is lost, and the PC would have to learn Xanevic to regain the bonus in Rhakros. This can be explained by the employers of the city looking more favourably upon those who speak the native language of their area.
Located below is a list of the CURRENTLY OPEN CITIES, their primary languages, and whether or not they qualify for this bonus. This list will be updated when / if cities are opened or closed.
| City | Language | Loyalty Bonus |
|---|---|---|
| Rynmere | Common | No |
| Viden | Common | No |
| Blackbrine | Rakahi | Yes |
| Scalvoris | Scalveen | Yes |
| Yaralon | Common (Yari) | Yes |
| Athart | Lorien (Avriel), Dehasin (Slaves) | Yes |
| Etzos | Ith'ession | Yes |
| Ivorian | Common | No |
| Rharne | Common | No |

| Desnind | Xanthea | Yes |
| Quacia | Vahanic | Yes |
If you are fluent in the language spoken in your city, you may apply the following to your Seasonal Wage.
- +1wp a Season
This bonus is NOT cumulative. Each Season that you are in the city, you get +1wp to your wage for that Season.
So, if your Seasonal Wage was 7wp/Season and you were fluent in your city, you would add +1wp to your wage for that Season. 7 + 1 = 8wp for that Season.
The next season, your Seasonal Wage would be 8wp/Season. Because you are still fluent in your city, you would add +1wp to your wage for that Season. 8 + 1 = 9wp for that Season.
The next season after that, your Seasonal Wage would be 9wp/Season. If you moved cities and were not fluent in the new city's
language, you would not get a bonus. 9 + 0 = 9wp for that Season.
Other Bonuses
There may be other bonuses that you can apply to your Seasonal Wage, but which are applied differently than the ones on this page. See Renown for an example of one such bonus.
