Villagers are divided into three types; Villagers, Monastics and Combatants. Additionally, each type of villager can be promoted. Players can promote villagers through the Mandates tab once the Great Hall has been built. The cost of promotion varies according to villager type, and increases for each rank. Combatants can be promoted for free, but have other conditions tied to their promotions. Before a villager can be promoted their Needs must be satisfied.
Villagers are divided into three types; Villagers, Monastics and Combatants, and can be promoted to different ranks within these types. All villager types and ranks follow the same pattern of work and free-time periods. When the villager is on free time, they will spend their time visiting locations in the town where they can fill their Needs (e.g. Wells, Markets, Churches, Taverns, Houses). If they have filled all their Needs and are still on free time, they will return to their houses to relax until they go to work.

Villagers are the occupants of the civilization. As the village expands, more villagers will move in through immigration and can be assigned jobs in order to increase production and the variety of goods and resources available.

Overview

The village starts with 8 Serfs who will appear when the player places the Village Center. New villagers coming in via immigration are known as Newcomers until they are accepted by the player, at which point they immediately become Serfs.

Villagers are divided into different types, and have Needs that must be filled in order to maintain their happiness. These Needs vary according to villager type and rank.

Villagers are divided into three types; Villagers, Monastics and Combatants, and can be promoted to different ranks within these types. All villager types and ranks follow the same pattern of work and free-time periods. When the villager is on free time, they will spend their time visiting locations in the town where they can fill their Needs (e.g. Wells, Markets, Churches, Taverns, Houses). If they have filled all their Needs and are still on free time, they will return to their houses to relax until they go to work.

Promotions

Players promote villagers through the Mandates tab once the Great Hall has been built. The cost of promotion varies according to villager type, and increases for each rank. Before a villager can be promoted their Needs must be satisfied. When a villager is promoted, some Needs which were previously Additional will become Essential, and new Additional Needs will be added. Therefore, although players can promote villagers at will, it is important to prepare for the new Needs that will arise.

Villager types are promoted with a cost of Coins as indicated above.

Monastic types are promoted with a cost of Manuscripts as indicated above. Manuscripts are produced in the Scriptorium sub-building of the Monastery.

Combatants are free to promote. However, Militiamen can only be promoted to Soldiers once they have reached a certain strength level, which depends on their weapons and military experience from campaigns. The same is true of promoting Soldiers to Knights. Additionally, players can only promote 1 Knight for every 5 Soldiers in their army.

        Main Article: Monks

        Monks work and live in the Monastery, and can work in jobs there such as the Monastery Garden or Apiary. The tiers are Novice, Brother/Sister, and Prior/Prioress. Monks don't have a desire for luxury, but have their own requirements such as the Cloister in higher ranks.
