Beggars require Fish, Cider, Companionship and Faith. The Alms house can then be used to remove Beggars from the streets, as long as their Needs are fulfilled. While on the street, they also increase the chance of Sickness and Plague within your Settlement. Beggars will not approach Oriental Settlements.Īccepting the Beggars will place them on the streets of your Settlement, where they cost Gold coins and reduce the Happiness of your Inhabitants. You then have the option of either accepting or rejecting them.
Instead, Beggars will approach your island on a Coffin ship once your Occidental Settlement reaches the 'Small Town' Status. They don't move in by building an Alms house. Beggars are unique in the way they move in to a Settlement. The Alms house is an Occidental Residence building that houses up to 500 Beggars.
