Historical figures in Ara: History Untold that don’t appear as Leaders are instead represented as Paragons. Paragons are valuable citizens within your nation who excel in a certain Profession. Paragons are acquired automatically as your Nation’s population grows, and your playstyle will influence who is more likely to appear. A militarily focused nation is likely to have more Strategists appear, while another that’s prioritizing technological advancement can expect Scientists to come knocking.
Paragons can be assigned as Advisers, Generals, or Artisans to provide you with unique benefits. The benefits provided in each of these roles are dependent on the Paragon’s Profession. For instance, Marcus Licinius Crassus is an Entrepreneur, and if assigned to an Army as a General will remove its Upkeep cost, but as an Adviser he instead would make your Trade Routes more profitable. Meanwhile, if Emily Dickinson, a Writer, is used as an Artisan she’ll make Book Masterpieces at an astounding rate. Assigned to an Army, her tales of your soldiers’ battles instead directly increase your Nation’s Prestige.
Every week, we'll be revealing a new Paragon from Ara: History Untold, and share a little bit about the benefits they can provide your Nation, so stay tuned for this Friday's first Paragon reveal!
