Editing Genius The Transgression/Chapter Two: Character Creation (section)

====Number:====
Number determines how many loyal minions a genius has. The exact number might fluctuate due to 
casualties, abandonment, or new recruits, but the general benefits remain the same except under egregious circumstances.

Having many beholden reduces the time taken to build a wonder. See below. This cannot reduce the time taken for a non-kitbashed Wonder to less than one day.

Having more beholden allows more attempts at dirty work. See Prowess, below, for more information on that mechanic.

Coupled with the Assembly Line Merit, having many beholden allows you to produce many identical wonders at the same time. The genius still benefits from the time reduction, meaning that many beholden can build wonders from an Assembly Line so fast only the most powerful geniuses have spare Mania to bind to all of them. A genius with three dots in beholden Number and at least three dots in the Assembly Line Merit, for example, could build up to eight identical wonders at once, with the same roll, and building all eight wonders would take half the time it would take a similar genius without those Merits to build a single such wonder.
