How do you all feel about the ability to earn titles in EoE?
This would be as recognition for landing somewhere between 1-10 in global events per house. Just another way to -
customize your character.
show devotion to your house.
show the amount of work that has been put into a specific event.
Just a thought. I'm sure it's been discussed with the Dev team.
Obviously these titles could be interchanged once earned and would be event specific.
(For example: Hollow The Exile , Hollow The Swift, Holllow The Collector, ect. ect.)

In that game, I might start as a count in Ireland, spend a generation uniting the tribes there before declaring myself High King of Ireland. And thus I become known as Finji the Wise.
Then a few generations later, I have control of all of Ireland and Scotland, and decide to install my dimwitted, clubfooted little brother "Tim Thewizard" as King of Scotland and thus become known as Finji IV the Kind.
Then a generation later when TheWizard has sown dissent all throughout my realm, slept with my wife, assassinated my heir, and declared and won a war of independence... I become known as Finji V the Fool.
Then finally, when my great great grandson Rufio subdues TheWizards wretched branch of the family, reclaims the Scottish crown, and successfully invades and conquers England, I become known as Rufio the Conqueror.
I really like that game. But, more importantly, I like that the nicknames are earned by things you do or thrust upon you by your sworn enemies *shakes fists* @TheWizard...
@Finjinimo, does that fist shaking mean we're now sworn enemies via example narrative? /ducks
I do like the titles thing-- think it adds some flavor to your play that wouldn't otherwise be there. Typically, games give out achievements for these types of things, but our narrative system lends itself toward style of play being how you are "seen." What if you're a sad sack nonstop losing player?

There are lots of fun ways you could take that, especially if all of the most successful nicknames sound really pretentious. Like they do in real life.
So loser nicknames might become a badge of honour, like "the stubborn".

to add on to Finji tile :
: master escapee : one who withdraw from PVP the most
: Elusive Snake : one who evade the most hits....
: Hulk : amazing HP...
And keep those title ideas coming!

I always thought the % boost was a little broken with the fact that it further separated the best from the rest. However, the idea behind titles adds to the role playing element. Thinking about it now, it could also be another incentive to stay with a specific house. You would be stripped of said titles if you abandon your house. Just a thought.
