Famous Leader [alternate start]

Your game must use either organizational influence (Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Ultimate Intrigue) or reputation and fame (Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Ultimate Campaign) to choose this alternate start.

You do not gain ranks in your associated skill from this sphere (although you must still spend ranks in the skill to improve the effects of talents). Instead, you gain fame or sway.

If your game uses reputation and fame, you gain 5 Fame (but no Prestige Points), to a maximum of 5 times your character level. You gain an additional 5 Fame for every talent you spend in the Faction sphere. Permanently losing Faction talents reduces your Fame by 5.

If your game uses organizational influence, your sway with your faction cannot fall below rank 1. Your minimum sway rises by 1 for every three talents you spend in the Faction sphere (not counting talents from sphere-specific drawbacks; maximum rank 4).

When you change the faction this sphere is linked to, you can transfer the fame and sway from one faction to the other.

Start-Up

Your faction is either still trying to get established or has had its resources stretched terribly thin due to some hardship. Your faction has half the normal maximum of gold pieces for their resource budgets, and you must select (or possess) the (supply) package to gain this drawback.

Due to your repeated support, you gain an additional authorization you can call upon with your faction.
