Leader ideologies

Characters have their own ideologies. When a character leads an interest group, this ideology adds to, and may override, that interest group's default stances. When characters are created, they can receive a random ideology or a preset ideology. Preset ideologies ignore the requirements and weights.

The chance for an ideology to be selected is equal to its weight divided by the total weight of all valid ideologies.
