Trigger A creature succeeds (but doesn't critically succeed) at a Diplomacy check to make a Request of the mayor

Effect The triggering creature (or one of its allies) must attempt the check again within the next hour, this time against the mayor's Society DC. Society or a relevant Lore skill may be used for this check instead of Diplomacy.

The mayor is the political leader of a settlement. While not always an elected position, it usually involves devoting time to both civic and ceremonial functions and knowing the needs of their settlement.

Larger societies rely on those with the authority and the ability to interpret and enforce laws. Some carry out these duties fairly, but others are harsh and cruel, imposing severe punishments on anyone unable to pay for clemency.
