In play
Honest: diplomacy rises by 2, intrigue falls by 4, courtly vassal opinion rises by 5, opinion of honest characters rises by 10, and opinion of characters with an opposite trait falls by 10. Honest opens the court and closes the scheme list. Courtly vassals and other honest characters approve. Deceitful is the opposite.
How to get Honest
- Gain: Honest is offered in childhood events beside Deceitful and Humble, or Arbitrary and Impatient. An Honest guardian and the Equitable tradition raise the odds. If your adult heir has Deceitful, the Family focus event A Flaw of Character lets you coach them out of it and gives them Honest instead. If your faith counts Deceitful as a sin, the pilgrimage event with a local guru and the Mendicant Mystics tradition event A Mystic's Wrath can swap it for Honest.
- Remove or lose: Honest is only lost if your faith counts it as a sin and an event flips it to Deceitful.
