A rep could be positive or negative and affect things like Diplomacy, Intimidate and Bluff (Think about it; Batman has a heck of a rep in the criminal underworld. Even if he were barely standing after a fight with the Joker, he could probably still scare off a couple muggers). Negative reps have the bonus of potentially hurting opponents' morale (you're just that scary!); whereas positive reps may improve your allies' morale:Fezzik: "Inigo, there's more than 30 men." Inigo: "What's the difference? We have him!" (points to Westley's corpse)I know those are combat-related, but it could translate into RP situations, too. Cost of goods in town. Folks avoiding you v. asking for help. Heck, how about some adventurer FANBOYS? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Following the positive Rep PC around town, asking questions; "So, is that the sword you used to kill all those ogres? Is it?! Is it?! That is SO COOL! Is it true you beheaded 4 of 'em in one swing?" etc.You could also have the local toughs challenge the players in town (like gunfighters) to fights or contests. Wizards & Sorcerers could have inopportune challenges to mageduels. Some yahoo popping up when they're busy, trying to make a name for themselves. The trick here is the feats would carry a price. Usually a Feat is more of a straight benefit. Just a thought.</blockquote>
