In play
Heresiarch: martial rises by 2, learning rises by 2, prowess rises by 2, same faith opinion rises by 10, influence rises by 0.75 a month, and advantage against coreligionists rises by 5. Heresiarch changes advantage against coreligionists (+5). That row is the one to plan around.
How to get Heresiarch
- Gain: Lead a heresy. When a faith's fervor falls below 40, heresies can break out and the founder of the new heretical Rite becomes a Heresiarch. When a Rite is declared heretical, its head becomes a Heresiarch as well. Some story events also grant it.
- Remove or lose: Converting to another faith removes it. With By God Alone, a Heresiarch who asks to be received back after their Rite is declared heretical loses Heresiarch and becomes a Herald.
Heresy outbreaks are a free 1.20 feature; the chance rises as fervor drops further.
