Fame points are awarded when characters have attained offices, performed certain actions, or achieved certain statuses. Each Fame point is unique, and will be given only once for each condition fulfilled. Trying to trigger the events with another character will not grant you repeated Fame, as it is a family attribute.

Many Fame points are also granted after a short delay or on the turns. For example, if you get appointed as a region lord but step down immediately, chances are that you will not get the Fame for holding that position. While the majority of the Fame points have been discovered, there are still a few that remain unknown, as Tom wishes to leave it that way.

This page outlines all of the known information so far regarding Fame points. The speculation page on the possible, yet to be discovered Fame points is referred to as Lemon Fame.

Hints

Since many players enjoy speculating about the unknown Fame points, here are some hints, directly from Tom himself:

  • Only one Fame point has not yet been collected - all other Fame points have been earned by at least one, usually many. This undiscovered Fame point can be earned in battle.
  • There is Fame in religion.
  • There is Fame for exceptional skill(s).
  • There is a trader-specific Fame point.
  • There is a Fame point that can be gained in the infiltrator career (technically also in others, though Tom doubts anyone but an infiltrator could really pull it off). It's not based on Honour, though. [14]
  • Some of the recently added Fame is easier for non-addicts to achieve, so some of the lower families will get Fame, too. [15]
