Throne
This article relates to content added by Royalty (DLC). Please note that it will not be present without the DLC enabled. |
Thrones are a set of two buildings used by nobles in the Royalty DLC.
Both thrones share similar mechanics.
Throne rooms[edit]
Throne rooms are a key aspect of the title system. In order to receive a noble title from the empire at all, you must have a suitable throne room (even if a pawn is ascetic).
Title | Honor (total) | Throne Room Requirements | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Throne | Space | Impressiveness | Floor | Brazier | Column | Musical instrument | Drape | ||
Freeholder | 1 | – | – | – | – | – | – | – | – |
Yeoman | 6 (7) | ||||||||
Acolyte | 6 (13) | Meditation throne | 24 | all floored | 2 | ||||
Knight/Dame | 8 (21) | 30 | 60 | 2 | Harp / Harpsichord / Piano | ||||
Praetor | 10 (31) | 40 | 90 | 4 | |||||
Baron/Baroness | 14 (45) | Grand meditation throne | 60 | 120 | all fine floored | Harpsichord / Piano | 2 | ||
Count/Countess | 20 (65) | 80 | 160 | 6 | Piano | ||||
Duke/Duchess Consul Stellarch Emperor/Empress |
N/A |
Note: All braziers must be lit and the room must be roofed.
Multiple pawns can share a throne room, but each pawn requires their own throne. You can place dining tables and recreation items inside a throne room. However, workstations and Ideology ritual items cannot be placed in a throne room without undignifying it.
Once assigned a title, non-Ascetic pawns will receive −6 No throne or −6 Undiginified throne room if their throne room is lowered below their requirements.
Meditation[edit]
Both thrones are a Dignified meditation focus. Anyone with a royal title can be assigned to a throne, where they will meditate.
- Both thrones give a base of +15% psyfocus per day.
- If it is in a throne room that meets the pawns title requirements, its focus strength is improved by +8%.
- Focus strength is then further improved by the throne room's impressiveness:
Impressiveness Value | 0 | 30 | 60 | 100 | 170+ |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Description at Value | Awful | Mediocre | Slightly Impressive | Very Impressive | Unbelievably Impressive |
Strength Offset | -5% | +0% | +4% | +8% | +10% |

N.B. The room impressiveness descriptors only relate to descriptors the room will have at that specific value. The descriptors themselves do not control the value. A room with 50 room impressiveness will be listed "Slightly Impressive" but will not make the cut off for the 4% increase.
To reiterate: meditation thrones and grand meditation thrones give the exact same meditation focus. The only difference is that the grand throne meets more title requirements, and is more impressive as a building. Thrones have a maximum of +33% psyfocus / day, in an Unbelievably impressive room that meets throne requirements.
Seating[edit]
Regular meditation thrones are considered as seats for all intents and purposes. Grand meditation thrones can only be sat on when watching television or while meditating.
Comfort[edit]
All seating have a Comfort value. This is a measure of how high a pawn can refill their comfort meter while using the piece of furniture. A pawn sitting in a meditation throne with a higher comfort value can achieve a higher level. It does not affect the rate at which comfort increases, only the maximum level. Comfort levels over 100% have no additional effect. Comfort varies by quality but not material. Meditation thrones of the same quality level will all have the same comfort, regardless of what they're constructed from.
