Chapter 5: Mind
Megalomania
Over a period of (5 + d100) months, the
character experiences a recurrent and intensely inflated
self-impression in 1 respect. Commonly called
a character who suffers a delusion of grandeur, a
megalomaniac believes they are superior to every
character met. This causes significant distress or
impairment in social, occupational, or other important
areas of functioning.
Whenever a character is afflicted with megalomania,
they will believe they are superior to others
in whatever is most important or enjoyable to
them. For some, this may be a sub-ability, for others
it will be how well they perform a given skill, and
for others it will be their aptitude in an occupation.
The Aedile must determine the specific respect.
Megalomania differs from Narcissistic Personality
Disorder because megalomaniacs believe they are
superior in what is important or enjoyable, while
narcissistic characters believe they are more important.
