==Affects of Status==

In a complain that uses these rules, status has these effects. 

'''Leadership'''

When using these status rules, Leadership Value is determined as follows:
Status, -2 if character has a familiar, special mount, or animal companion.

'''Interaction'''

If two characters are different in status by more than 5 points the lower in status will be reluctant to approach, attack, or make public statements about the higher status character (except as defined in the Leadership feat). Doing so requires a Will Save (DC 20+Status Difference). If such a Will save is failed, the character may make no more such attempts for 24 hours. 

'''Skill Modifiers'''

If two interacting characters are different in status by more than 5 points the higher in status will gain +4 bonus to Intimidate checks and a +2 bonus to Diplomacy checks. The lower in status will gain a +3 insight bonus to Bluff and Sense Motive Checks.

'''Protégés''' 

A character with a status of at least 5 may have a number of protégés in a community equal to her Charisma bonus. The same character may be a protégé in more than one community. Changing protégés in a community requires an hour spent interacting with the locals in that community. Protégés have increased status, as listed below.

'''Income'''

Once a character has spent 30 consecutive days in a community, each subsequent day the character remains, she accrues (status-5) * (status-5) * (status-5) silver pieces per day, just for being considered important to the community.
