Villagers can be obtained at regular intervals, with a choice between two groups. Additional villagers can also be obtained by completing Orders.

== Overview ==


Each villager has a Resolve stat. If it reaches above a certain threshold it will generate Resolve. If it falls to 0 the villager will leave, increasing the queen's Impatience.

Villagers are the inhabitants of Viceroy settlements. The number and species of villagers you are going to have at the start of your settlement are determined by the [[Caravan]] you pick on the [[World Map]]. [[Newcomers]] come to your settlement at regular intervals (every 10 minutes by default). Additional villagers can also be obtained by completing [[Orders]] or [[Glade Events]]. There are also [[Cornerstones]] like [[Surprise Child]] that reward villagers every time their conditions are fulfilled.


== Resolve ==
== Resolve ==
Resolve is the main indicator of the villagers’ well-being. It’s represented by a number between 0 and 50, and is calculated for each species based on its Base Resolve and all positive and negative effects influencing it. If it drops to 0 the villager will try to leave the settlement. To increase Resolve, you have to satisfy your villagers’ needs - by giving them complex food (like Jerky, Pie, etc.), clothing (Coats), or access to services (like a Tavern serving Ale). Resolve growth is gradual and takes different amounts of time for each species.


To see the exact Resolve change, open the species panel using the arrow key next to the species’ portrait and hover over the numbers shown next to the species name. There you will find the Current Resolve and Target Resolve. Current Resolve reflects the Resolve a given species currently has, and Target Resolve is the sum of all effects – in other words, the value that the Current Resolve will eventually reach over time. Raising Resolve to an exceptionally high level (indicated by the blue line on the Resolve Bar) will generate Reputation Points passively. However, this won't last indefinitely, as villagers will get used to their standard of living after each point acquired, and the blue line on the Resolve bar will move further up.

Each villager has a [[Resolve]] stat. Resolve is the main indicator of the villagers’ well-being. Please see [[Resolve]] for more information as it is a complication subject.

Each villager is part of one of 4 species, which determines their stats:
 
* '''Base Resolve''' is the villager's Resolve when there are no positive or negative effects affecting them.
Each villager is a member of one of 5 species. In any given settlement you are going to have only 3 species, and they are determined when you embark (not when the villager joins your settlement).
* '''Break Interval''' is the period of time before the villager will take a break at the Hearth.

=== Resolve stats ===
 
Each species has the following stats describing their Resolve:
 
; Base Resolve : The species's [[Resolve]] without any positive or negative effects.
; Resilience : How fast the species' Resolve drops. A species with high Resilience loses Resolve about 4 times slower than low Resilience species.
; Demand : Also called '''Resolve Threshold,''' how much Resolve a species needs before they start generating [[Reputation]] for their viceroy.
; Decadence : How much their '''Demand''' rises after they earn their viceroy a Reputation Point through their own high Resolve.
; Hunger Tolerance : The maximum amount of [[Hunger]] a villager can withstand before dying.
; Break Interval : The minimum amount of time before a villager will take a [[break]] at a [[Hearth]].

Overview

Villagers gathered at the Hearth

Villagers are the inhabitants of Viceroy settlements. The number and species of villagers you are going to have at the start of your settlement are determined by the Caravan you pick on the World Map. Newcomers come to your settlement at regular intervals (every 10 minutes by default). Additional villagers can also be obtained by completing Orders or Glade Events. There are also Cornerstones like Surprise Child that reward villagers every time their conditions are fulfilled.

Resolve

Harpy Icon showing Resolve change

Each villager has a Resolve stat. Resolve is the main indicator of the villagers’ well-being. Please see Resolve for more information as it is a complication subject.

Species

Each villager is a member of one of 5 species. In any given settlement you are going to have only 3 species, and they are determined when you embark (not when the villager joins your settlement).

Foxes Foxes 5 low 15 5 3 2:00


Specializations

Comfort Specialization
Grants villagers +5 to their individual Resolve when working in that specialization.

Needs

Main articles: Housing Need, Complex Food Need, Clothing Need, Services Needs

Each species has the following needs:

Shelter Need
Also called Basic Housing, every villager needs to have a roof of some kind over their head. Every species has a Icon Need Shelter.png Shelter Need. This is omitted from the following table.
Housing Need
Also called Species-specific Housing, their need for the comforts of home unique to their species.

Workers

Villagers can be assigned to Hearths, Camps, Farms, Mines, production buildings, Service buildings, Geyser Pumps, Warehouses, Blight Posts, and Glade Events. Once assigned, villagers will immediately begin performing their work, unless they were on a break or travelling to the nearest Hearth to take a break, in which case they finish their break first before starting with their job. All unassigned villagers count as builders.

When villagers die, an alert appears telling you what job the villager had. You can click on the alert to show their workplace.

Name of Job Building
"Blight fighter" Blight Post
"Craftsman" Makeshift Post
"Druid" Druid's Hut
"Farmer" Farms
"Firekeeper" Hearths

"Hauler" Warehouses
"Scout" Glade Events
"Woodcutter" Woodcutters' Camp
"Miner" Mine
"Worker" Either generically, or the alert may specify "Greenhouse Worker" identifying that the worker was in the Greenhouse.

Caravans

Main article: Embarking

Caravan menu

The caravan you pick before Embarking, along with the Embarkation points you spend, are going to determine the species and number of your starting villagers, as well as your starting resources. You only have 2 caravans available in the caravan menu when starting out. In order to unlock the third one, you have to acquire Pioneers’ Gate level 5 upgrade.

Only 1 or 2 of the starting species can be known before you start a settlement, never all 3. All 3 species are set in stone upon Embarkation - there is no way to affect what species your settlement is going to have after Embarkation.

Before World Events increase or decrease the number of starting villagers, every caravan has 6-8 villagers and a 50% chance for 2 additional villagers.
