Political Capital
Most activities in the game generate political capital for the groups your PC
is part of in a particular borough. If you are in multiple groups you may have a
choice of which group to give the capital to, or in some cases it will be distributed
amongst them.
Generating political capital in a borough is how groups take them over to earn
favor.
Methods for gaining political capital are:
Contributing items taken from/butchered from hostile NPCs found in the mists
or in big game hunts. The value of these items increases exponentially with the
power of the creature, so a creature which is twice as powerful will be worth
four times as much.
