Feature: A warrior's pride
You have the rank of being a Warrior. Peasants in any place smaller than a city will recognize your authority and influence, and they defer to you. You can invoke your status over people of a lower caste and requisition simple items and food. You can usually gain access to lodging at towns where humans are considered allies.
