I just started Book 3 yesterday and while checking what Military and Realm points I had, I discovered Rage Points. I have not, sadly, found any explanation for what Rage Points do within the context of the game. I don't know whether I should be trying to acquire more, or lose more, or why. I looked through all of the topics but haven't seen it listed, so I was hoping there was a resource I could be directed to that explains Rage Points. Thanks.
For general background info on the game, I'd recommend checking out the awesome Wiki. It's largely fan-maintained, but they've done a great job on it .https://loveofmagic.fandom.com/wiki/Love_of_Magic_Wiki
Rage points grow and decline through Book 3 (and NG+), they correspond to his 'base-line' Rage (he's got anger issues at this point). It manifests a couple of different ways; in combat that is your starting rage bonus. Some story elements also read different if you have very high or low Rage points (some enemies can be scared into submission, while other entities will refuse to deal with you). Reducing rage happens either naturally through story or by spending some quality time with your Chosen.
Thank you SO much! I swear I searched the fandom, I guess I conspired to miss it somehow.
Speaking as an American who studied at University of Edinburgh as a young man, I immediately fell in love with Book 1. But I have become so immersed in the story so far, and in the characters and their interactions, the combat sequences... I think Love of Magic has become my all-time favorite. So thank you, both for the reply and for developing a game I simply adore.

Glad you're enjoying it :)
