For example, let's say Velho owns a business where the highest skill he has is ''Scourge'' at master (4) and the second highest is ''Malediction'' at expert (2); his Enterprise is therefore worth 6.
 
He would add the above value onto his SP multiplier as follows:
 
Base:
:5 (Scourge / Master)
:6 '''Enterprise'''
Multipliers:
:100 - Base
:0 - Active Prior Seasons
:40 - 2x mastered skill
:60 - 6x expert skills
 
Total:
:11*200 = 2200 SP
 
===Enterprise Development===
Over time, a PC may choose to further develop an Enterprise. A Duty such as an Enterprise may have up to 1000 XP invested into it, and the scale of that Duty may be optionally expanded every 250 XP.
 
'''Duty Types:'''
:*'''Small:''' 0 XP
::A 'small' Enterprise is something like a small, family owned business with only one establishment.
:*'''Local:''' 250 XP
::A 'local' Enterprise would have either one medium to large sized establishment or a handful of small ones.
:*'''Regional:''' 500 XP
::A 'regional' Enterprise can have up to a handful of medium to large establishments or more if each is smaller smattered across a region of the map.
:*'''National:''' 750 XP
::A 'national' Enterprise has enough establishments of any size to span a whole nation.
:*'''World:''' 1000 XP
::A 'world' Enterprise is so grand that it may have establishments open across different jurisdictions.
 
Further, every 50 XP invested adds 15 to a PC's SP multiplier and every 200 XP awards a [[formation|Formation Merit]].
 
To track this, please add a line on your Skills Sheet/Table where you will record the amount of XP invested. In order for said XP to be reflected in one's SP multiplier, a PC must first thread out the development of their business in writing and then have it canonized. As an example, let's say Velho has invested 50/1000 XP into his business and had the development canonized.
 
His SP formula would now look like this:
 
Base:
:5 (Scourge / Master)
:6 '''Enterprise'''
Multipliers:
:100 - Base
:0 - Active Prior Seasons
:40 - 2x mastered skill
:60 - 6x expert skills
:15 - '''Enterprise Multiplier'''


Total:
See [[Enterprise]] for details.
