Great job and im looking forward to see what your going to do with the Yi-Tish. Hey, so yi ti wise I'm kinda stuck for ideas atm - the Boy Too Bold By Half, the Sea Green Emperor who conquered Leng, the Yellow Sorceror of Carcosa and the Yellow Emperor who married a valryrian and kept a dragon at his court should all get a bloodline but aside from that I'm stumped on what to do for the region - I know vanilla CK2 has Chinese imperialism bloodlines but I've never played that Far East so don't have much experience to draw on - I'd be really glad for any suggestions for bloodlines and bloodline related stuff - thinking about it I might be able to do something similar to the raventree and oakenseat with the great pearl palenquin of the God-Emperor of the Dawn - have a holder building in Yin then make a mystic emperor travel to ancient ruins to gain the knowledge to restore it and forge a bloodline in the process? Really short of ideas tbh, would appreciate any input you have Hey, I would be glade to help if i can. I do love history and its obvious of the Yi-Ti relations with China and the various dynasty's. I'll put a report together and send it to you via Message.

I'm having a problem with all the Coat of Arms of everyone being scrambled in 1.5.3, any solutions? I have the same issue, I just updated to 1.9 and when I updated this mod all the flags are mixed up. When I click on a Clash of Kings it shows the High garden flag for King of the North title, I'm only running the base mod and this submod. Edit: I also noticed robb stark had a drop of dragon blood. Is he supposed to have that?

Is he supposed to have that? I can't seem to duplicate the COA glitch, I'd recommend a clean install of MB to make sure there are no old files mucking things up As for Robb having a drop of dragon blood I traced it back because I found it weird too - as it turns out (at least for the mod) the Starks have some targaryen descent: Willam Stark, the Lord of Winterfell who died fighting Raymund Redbeard and Ned's great grandfather, was married to Melantha Blackwood who is descended from Bloody Ben Blackwood, the Boy Lord of Raventree during the Dance, who (in the mod at least - I don't think this is book canon) married Ellyn Baratheon daughter of Lord Borros Baratheon, who was obviously descended from the Targaryens through Orys and the Velaryons that the Baratheons had married in early generations

Ok I've been doing some thinking about YiTi after angryfarmer sent me his excellent suggestions I'm thinking of making both the Pearl Palanquin and the Bloodstone restorable triggering bloodlines if created, plus I've got ideas for bloodlines for most of the recorded dynasties, But I've also had an idea for new dynasties that become God Emperors of YiTi, essentially if you hold the title of YiTi but don't have an imperial bloodline you get an event which lets you choose from 8-9 bloodline types (they will be weighted based on traits for the ai so that it chooses an appropriate seeming bloodline, not a random one). I'm trying to make the dynasties more than just basic +2 martial etc so I'm trying to make the bloodlines use trait gain to feel unique, kinda like choosing doctrines in a pagan reformation I want the bloodlines to offer pros and cons, unique mechanics and really shape how an imperial house acts - to use an example of what I want them to be like the canon Pearl White/Eunuch Emperor bloodline will offer a +2 stewardship and a -10% build rate and a +5% tax rate, BUT upon ascending to the throne emperors with this bloodline will have to castrate themselves (or face huge opinion penalties with all vassals), and a similar "benevolent eunuch bloodline" will be one of the options a new imperial family can choose, if anyone has suggestions for other bloodline options that would fit YiTi please post them

I would recommend not having that penalty kick in if the emperor does not have a child, or a few of them actually, as well as being an adult.

Tbf that is what the lore says the pearl white emperors did - there would be other bloodlines available that didn't have that penalty, plus I think it could actually make for quite a fun playthrough by adding a fun spin on family management

Is it possible that we’ll get more earnable bloodlines like what we get for rebuilding Harrenhal?
I always felt as if it was a bit of a missed opportunity that the base mod doesn’t grant an earnable bloodline for slaying a dragon while on foot. It seems like it’s supposed to be a legendary deed that people will talk about for generations, but only give prestige for that one guy.

It seems like it’s supposed to be a legendary deed that people will talk about for generations, but only give prestige for that one guy. So currently you can earn bloodlines for rebuilding Harrenhal, regrowing the Raventree, regrowing the Oakenseat, having 3+ skinchanging animals, and becoming Nights King, the next update will add bloodlines for restoring the Pearl Palanquin of YiTi or the Bloodstone of the Bloostone Emperor and fix the bug that prevents the bloodline for winning the War of the Dawn. I might look into dragonslayer bloodlines but it'd have to be heavily caveated - they couldn't be locked in the Dragonpit, they couldn't be wounded or maimed, and they'd have to have a high martial score. I quite like the rebuilding bloodlines as creatable ones as say dragonslaying is essentially luck but rebuilding a sacred item or something is a long term quest that you can work towards, but I'm definitely for more creatable bloodlines where they make sense

Hmm yeah, I guess that makes sense.
Maybe one for having slain multiple dragons? Becomes less of a luck based thing if that’s the case.

OK first preview for the 1.6 update: Bloodlines of YiTiAmongst other things the next update will add bloodlines for YiTi. This will include historical bloodlines for the more notable emperors from WOIAF, but as the Azure emperors rule YiTi for the whole of the main mod, the vast majority of the bloodlines will be extinct. To add variety to the bloodlines I have therefore drawn up an event chain that will fire if a new dynasty gains the Golden Empire of YiTi which enables them to choose from 9 different bloodlines to decree what style of rule they will purse. The event will also fire for the Azure Emperor on initialisation just to make the bloodlines easier to play. There are a range of different bloodlines and each offers different mechanics to represent the style of rule the Emperors of that dynasty seek to pursue. The AI will also be able to use this feature and will choose a bloodline based on the traits of the founder, additionally one of the Bloodlines ("Scion of the Plains") will only be available if a character is graphically or culturally Jogos Nhai. Here is the event chain that allows you to choose a bloodline: I have also fully coded the events for the unique features of the first three of the bloodlines:

The Scourge of the PlainsThis is an anti-nomad, martial themed bloodline, inspired by the Boy Too Bold By Half, and represent an oath that the dynasty will protect and secure the northern frontier of the Empire, driving back the Jogos Nhai nomads. It gives a few different martial boosts, including a cavalry bonus to represent plains warfare, an opinion boost with YiTish characters and a massive opinion penalty with Jogos Nhai characters, and it substantially reduces the cost of colonisation wars and colonisation, to represent that the administration of the empire is focused on pacifying the plains, the bloodline founder also gets one of 4 unique nicknames. The AI weighting of the war has also been adjusted so that characters with this bloodline will really want to carry out this kind of war, so if you're a Jogos Nhai player and the Emperor has this bloodline they will be attacking you the minute they have enough funds.

The Benevolent Eunuch EmperorsThis is a stewardship focused bloodline, inspired by the nine Eunuch Emperors of the Pearl White dynasty, and represents an oath that upon ascending to the throne members of the dynasty will castrate themselves to devote themselves entirely to the empire. It gives stewardship, tax rate, and build time bonuses and an opinion boost with YiTish characters, but shortly after a new bloodline member gains the title of the Empire of YiTi they will have an event fire where they will have the option to be castrated. If they agree to be castrated they will be unable to father heirs, but they will gain a new trait of the "Eunuch Emperor" which provides opinion, stewardship, and diplomacy boosts, and a nickname, if they choose to refuse castration they will receive a different trait of the "False Eunuch Emperor" that makes all YiTish characters despise them for failing to fulfil their duties which will probably lead to immediate rebellions unless the Emperor agrees to change his mind when the event fires again, whereupon you will lose the "False Eunuch Emperor" trait and become popular again.
