GUI showing information of the population.

Citizens are the very lifeblood of a settlement. They come in three races: the Cretonians, Dondorians and Cantors. With the guide of the player, they are responsible for performing all kinds of tasks and jobs to keep the settlement running and growing stronger. All citizens have pre-generated names, personalities, faces, traits, wants, needs and preferred climate. These wants and needs must be met and managed by the player, to keep everyone happy and working at maximum efficiency. Unhappy citizens may leave your settlement.

Each race is unique in what they excel at, and what they like and dislike. When looking at each citizen individually, the details greatly increase. Each citizen has a pre-generated name, traits and personality. At any time, the player can click on a citizen to see their status. At any time, the player can check the amount of fulfillment and expectations of an individual, collectively as a race or all of the citizens in a settlement combined. Choosing a certain climate for your settlement will bring more immigrants of a race that matches a climate they prefer.

A settlement's population comes in five separate type of citizens: subjects, retirees, recruits, nobles and slaves.
An individual citizen, however, comes if four types: standard subjects, slaves, prisoners and invaders. These four types can be differentiated by the color of the clothes they wear.

As the player's settlement expands and increases in quality, it will begin to see a rise in population through immigration. Note that population must be managed carefully, as if it's too low, there won't be enough people available to perform enough tasks and/or take employment, and if it's too high, the amount of food may not be enough to sustain everyone. Rising population will also increase standards and expectations of everyone.

Enemy citizens can attack the player's settlement at certain times. Citizens can be marked as a favorite, making them easier to track for the player.

Mechanics

Working

By default, all citizens will wander around and do odd jobs, unless they are given employment in a building. There must almost always be unemployed citizens to be free to do tasks such as build buildings, cut down trees or collect stone from rocks in the ground. If they are employed, they will always be working the job the player assigned them.

Regardless of what a person's job is, they will always take time off to fulfill their needs, such as sleeping, eating, maintaining their hygiene, drinking, using the bathroom, relaxing (if they can) and being near hearths. As mentioned before, the wants and needs differ between races, and each individual person.

Odd jobbers will aimlessly wander around, waiting for player-made commands and will fulfill them as soon as possible. Employed individuals will constantly maintain their job, always collecting and using resources, and/or making them if the job entails this. If there are no resources for someone to properly do their job, they will just stand around with nothing to do.

Battle

At some point, when your settlement is developed enough, you will begin to face raids. To prepare for this, a training ground must be built, and the magnitude of training for the citizens should also be properly managed. If citizens are tough enough, they should be able to fight off raids, or at least weaken them. When training, citizens will begin as recruits, then upgrade to capable soldiers. Equipping these soldiers with battlegear will greatly increase their combat performance.

Cretonians

Main article: Cretonians

Cretonians are the most peaceful of the three races, and excel at farming rather than more grueling work such as mining. They prefer warmer climates and areas with bodies of water. They are vegetarians and prefer wooden structures.

Dondorians

Main article: Dondorians

Dondorians are fundamentally the opposite of Cretonians, as they are adept at fighting and excel at refinery work and mining. They prefer colder climates and in terms of food, prefer meat and fish.

Cantors

Main article: Cantors

Cantors are the rarest and unique of the three races. Cantors are giants that are hard to recruit to your settlement and are hard to please. Cantors excel at almost all things in the game.

Garthimis

Main article: Garthimis

Garthimis are humanoid-insect hybrids, and can produce offspring the fastest of all the races. They do not care for the finer things in life, and do not take life nor death very seriously, making them excellent cannon fodder. Similar to Dondorians, they prefer meat and fish.
