HONOR

INCREASE HONOR BY: Acting with restraint, showing courtesy, being merciful, keeping your word in the face of adversity, especting your lessers and superiors, winning duels, conducting yourself without subterfuge or skullduggery.
LOWER HONOR BY: Raiding and pillaging, showing disrespect to your lesser and superiors, taking the easy path to victory, dishonoring treaties and pacts, executing hostages, consorting with the Nanban or using Nanban technology.
