In this article we show how socio-psychological status theories can be formalized and used to control the expressive and communicative behavior of intelligent
virtual agents. We describe Exstasis, a model that computes the status and action tendencies for all actors in a situation based on their status characteristics and behavior patterns. As a configurable software component Exstasis can be integrated in existing systems to extend the social capabilities of the virtual characters.
