How do the relationships work?

Relationships with companions (and, in case of the main character, with factions) can be found in the character sheet screen (the icon depicting a head or "C" key). Then, you have to open "Reputations" tab.

The picture above shows reputation of a main character. Here, you can learn about relationships with factions and companions. Your every choice has impact on them - dialog options, ways of solving quests or your attitude towards a member of a faction.

Below companions you can find another set of icons - Dispositions. They are divided into: Stoic, Deceptive, Rational, Passionate, Honest, Diplomatic, Cruel, Clever, Benevolent and Aggressive. The indicator next to an icon informs you how a given Disposition's development. For example, Diplomatic can be increased by alleviating situations during confrontations. They shape the character of your hero and they have impact on how your companions see you - each one of them values different behaviors (you can learn more about that by reading their descriptions).

You can notice changes in relationships during dialogs. During them you can also read descriptions of their emotions - sometimes, you can notice an icon which corresponds to a character's Disposition (you can read about them in a character's description).

This is how "Reputations" bar looks like for the rest of your party. Here, you can see their relationships with other members of the group and their set of Dispositions - which behaviors they value and which aren't tolerated.
