"My election as President of the World Council would see the beginning of an era of economic boom. Not just for one, but for all branches of industry!"
—Skylar Banes when voting on the World Council


Skylar Banes is the brilliant (as told by Rufus Thorne) lead director and chair of the board of directors of the Tycoon Organization, Global Trust. The Player can vote for her as president of the World Council.

The Tycoons' most efficient transport road, Banes Avenue, and one of the world's most prestigious schools, Banes Elite University, are named after her. On the official Soundtrack of the game, there's a track named "Skylar's Masterplan".

Activities[]

Skylar Banes

Director Banes, as seen in the Global Trust's introduction video

She appears in the game when the player begins to construct the Tycoon Monument (similar to Seamus Green).

After the monument is completed, she will give the player quests like the other NPCs. As a reward, she will sometimes give very powerful items to the player. Failing her quests does however not incur an influence penalty, since she does not have an influence bar or any diplomacy screen at all.

She will sometimes also send a Container Ship into the sector to trade at your warehouses.

"Family? I mean really! Do you think my position leaves me any time for a personal life? A husband… children? I never had any illusions where that was concerned."
