Wvaske: Create the disposition tracker — council standing plus the new goodwill record for communities

Create the disposition tracker — council standing plus the new goodwill record for communities

New page

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Council Disposition Tracker}}
= Council Disposition Tracker =
How the coalition — and the countryside — regard [[Deez Nuts]]. The upper table tracks the war council's member realms. The lower one tracks '''goodwill''': the ordinary places that have reason to think well of the company, and the ones that do not.

''For what each faction wants and offers, see the [[Faction Support Tracker]]. For per-character ranks and boons, the [[Renown Tracker]]. For the council itself, [[Council of Waterdeep]].''

== Council members & realms ==
The dispositions [[Leosin Erlanthar]] briefed the party on before the [[Council of Waterdeep]], updated as they shift.

{| class="wikitable sortable" style="width:100%;"
! style="width:18%;" | Member
! style="width:16%;" | Disposition
! style="width:33%;" | Position & priorities
! style="width:33%;" | What the party has done
|-
| '''[[Waterdeep]]''' — [[Lady Dalla Silmerhelm]]
| Ally
| Aligned with the coalition; knew of [[Maccath the Crimson]].
| Acted on her Maccath lead.
|-
| '''[[Neverwinter]]''' — [[Lord Dagult Neverember]]
| Believer / pragmatist
| Presided over the Council and deputized the party.
| Earned the deputization.
|-
| '''[[Baldur's Gate]] / [[Flaming Fist]]''' — [[Marshal Ulder Ravenguard]]
| Believer / pragmatist
| Defends the [[Bronze Blades]] (his agents); backs the giant alliance. Granted the company [[Nuts Deep]].
| Friction over the Bronze Blades, then rescued them; holds and defended the fort he granted them.
|-
| '''[[Mithral Hall]] dwarves''' — [[Ambassador Conrad Brawn]]
| Skeptic — to win over
| Distrusts the giant alliance (old dwarf–giant enmity).
| The giant alliance remains a sore point with him.
|-
| '''[[Misty Forest]] elves''' — [[King Melendrak]]
| Skeptic — to win over
| Doubts the Cult can truly summon [[Tiamat]].
| Not yet decisively convinced.
|-
| '''[[Silverymoon]]''' — [[Taern Thunderspells Hornblade]]
| Conditional
| Wants all intelligence on summoning and resurrection magic.
| Reported the [[Draakhorn]], the resurrections of Rath Modar & Rezmir, and Red Wizard involvement.
|}

== Goodwill ==
Councils are won with victories. Villages are won with roofs.

'''Goodwill''' records how ordinary communities regard the company — earned by what was done for them, and spent on the things only locals can give. It is tracked separately from council standing because it behaves differently: it is slower to build, far harder to fake, and it does not care what a lord thinks.

=== The scale ===
{| class="wikitable" style="width:75%;"
! Standing !! What it means
|-
| '''Devoted''' || The place considers itself to owe the company. Doors open, and stay open.
|-
| '''Warm''' || Welcome, fed, and helped. Strangers asking after the company get nothing.
|-
| '''Neutral''' || Known of, not known. Ordinary custom, ordinary prices.
|-
| '''Wary''' || Something happened here. Cooperation is grudging and watched.
|-
| '''Hostile''' || The company is not safe here, and neither is anyone associated with them.
|}

=== What goodwill is good for ===
* '''Shelter and supply''' — lodging, food, horses, hands, at fair cost or none.
* '''Word freely given''' — what passed through, who asked after whom, what the strangers looked like.
* '''Cover for associates''' — see below.
* '''Warning''' — a warm village sends word when someone comes asking. A devoted one sends word before they finish asking.
* '''Resistance to agitation''' — a place that trusts the company is markedly harder for the [[Cult of the Dragon]] to turn against it.

=== Associates ===
Goodwill extends beyond the six of them. It covers the company's '''associates''': every faction cell — [[The Nightingales]], [[The Anvil]], [[Talonfall]] — and the [[Squires of Deez Nuts|squires]]. A village that trusts Deez Nuts will house a Nightingale without asking her business, walk a Talon to the right trailhead, and forget it saw either.

This makes goodwill the one resource that quietly improves every other cell's reach.

=== The record ===
{| class="wikitable sortable" style="width:100%;"
! style="width:22%;" | Place
! style="width:14%;" | Standing
! style="width:64%;" | Why
|-
| '''[[Luskan]]'''
| Devoted
| The company broke the blood-red coin curse and cured the city (S51).
|-
| '''[[Elturel]]'''
| Devoted
| Saved a secret supply caravan and destroyed the force pursuing it at the [[Session 53 - The Battle of Nuts Deep (2026-08-09)|Battle of Nuts Deep]] (S53). The city is sending craftsmen and supplies in thanks.
|-
| '''[[Greenest]]'''
| Warm
| [[Xanphina]] met Langdedrosa Cyanwrath in single combat before the whole town (S18).
|-

|-
| '''The [[Svirfneblin]] of the deep'''
