			There is a "stress" mechanic, by which Henri can get bonuses to any one action he himself takes. Stress points stay until removed. Henri can take three stress points before going into overstress. The first three stress points can be removed by doing something sufficiently relaxing or rewarding. Stress points can also be removed by Vedibere as a penalty to any one action. Overstress can only be removed by means of penalty. The system is described in more detail in [http://questionablequesting.com/index.php?topic=324.msg34001#msg34001 this post]. Major NPCs will have a similar mechanic.

The world in general has strong historic basis. Time is kept by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_hours#Daily_Cycle_of_services canonical hours].

The smallest currency is the Denir, followed by the Sou, and then by a Livre. A (historical) French livre has 20 sous, each of which has 12 deniers, making a livre worth 240 deniers. Five Livers is the price of a quality riding horse. Half of that (576 deniers) would buy an average-quality sword, a packhorse, or a cow.
