=== Reputation Loss ===
<div class=hatnote>In Tanyth, reputation is your greatest asset, but it is also your most fragile. Once lost, it may never be recovered.</div>

In Tanyth, reputation is everything. It defines your value, your opportunities, and your place within the city's ever-changing web of power.

'''Poor decisions, failed contracts, broken promises, betrayal,''' or other actions may result in a loss of Personal Reputation.

If a character's Personal Reputation is reduced to '''0''', they have fallen into obscurity. Their name carries little weight and they have lost the influence they once possessed.

If a character's Personal Reputation is ever reduced below '''0''', the character is considered '''permanently lost'''. Whether they fled the city in disgrace, were quietly eliminated by their enemies, or simply vanished without a trace, their story comes to an end.

This is treated as a '''permanent character death'''. The player loses:

* All XP associated with that character.
* All Copper, Treasures, and Items owned by that character.
* All Company memberships, influence, and standing.

A new character must then be created to continue playing.
