Hello. At first, big kudos for the mod. Playing as a Ramsay. Kingdom of the North won war for the independence against the Iron Throne, cause the Boltons, unlike the weak Starks, have the guts to do it. Will be nice to get traditional claims on the North, ie. Roose/Ramsay bloodline if they manage to make the North de jure independent or something. Thanks glad to hear you're enjoying it. So traditional claim bloodlines are vanilla - I haven't added any new ones, but if you hold a kingdom tier title for 7 generations you will create a new bloodline with traditional claims, so essentially this already exists. |

Ahh alright then, something like that i wanted. Does it count for lesser titles too(like High Lordship of Winterfell or Dreadfort)? |

I think it just applies to k_north or e_north in this situation - the code is necessarily rather complex but thats my interpretation upon looking at it - but as I say not really sure, traditional claims are a base game feature  |

The Blood of the Sorceror EmperorsThis is a mysticism themed bloodline, inspired by the the twenty-second scarlet emperor Lo the Terrible/Lo Longspoon, who was a sorceror and ate the brains of his captives, and represents the decision by the dynasty to draw upon dark magical powers. It gives a few different effects, with a +2 boost to Intrigue, a +10% to plot defence, and a chance to gain mystic as a trait, characters will also be able to use the macabre banquet execution, additionally the bloodline founder also gets one of 4 unique nicknames and a unique "Long Spoon" artifact that boosts plot power by 10%. However, this comes at cost - characters with this bloodline will tend to become cannibals and cruel and there will be a -15 general opinion, also the longspoon carries a -5 general opinion. Once a character with this bloodline has become emperor they also get a unique mechanic to draw upon: This takes the form of a diplomacy interaction that allows you to consume the brain of prisoners killing them. If you decide to do this you will obviously become a cannibal and you may also become paranoid or a lunatic, however, it offers powerful magical powers as you absorb their knowledge/life force. You are presented with 4 options once you have eaten a brain: 1. Increase your intrigue by 1 up to a limit of 25 2. Increase your learning by 1 3. Uncover a plot against you 4. Cure yourself of any wound, illness, deformity etc. I also plan in a later update to add an interaction that lets characters with this bloodline who hold the Longspoon use it to intimidate vassals/courtiers by creeping them out with it. Choosing the bloodline
The Bloodline - will tweak the desc a bit to get rid of overlap

Blood of the Scion of the PlainsThis is a martial themed bloodline, inspired by the Yuan dynasty in Imperial China, and represents an imperial house of Jogos Nhai origin. It is normally unavailable as an option, unless a character is graphically or culturally Jogos Nhai - therefore the only ways to get it are to either start as a Jogos Nhai and somehow become emperor or start as YiTish and marry a Jogos Nhai or foster your heir to one then use the heir to become Emperor and pick this bloodline. It gives a few different boosts, with a +2 boost to Martial, a +5 to Combat Skill (martial heritage), and a boost of 10% to morale defence, a +15 opinion with Jogos Nhai characters, and additionally the bloodline founder also gets one of 4 unique nicknames. However, this comes at a cost of a -5 opinion to YiTish characters who object to having a foreign ruler who is on such good terms with ancient enemies. There are also two unique features associated with the bloodline: The first is similar the Living God Emperor and Peasant Emperor Bloodlines, and lets you recruit an army of Jogos Nhai at the cost of prestige during times of war via decision. The army is archers, light cavalry, and horse archers with a small number of heavy cavalry and is 3,500 strong, is non reinforcing, and will disband at the end of the war. The second allows the Emperor with this bloodline to build unique buildings in their capital. These buildings are essentially small Jogos Nhai settlements and enable you to raise archers, light cavalry and zorse archers, however, they are unpopular with the locals and increase revolt risk slightly I do eventually want to add a third unique feature that lets you pay Jogos Nhai to colonise a county of theirs, settling it - kind of an inverse of the Scourge of the Plains Bloodline - letting you pacify the plains by trade and diplomacy not by war and extermination, but considering the difficulty in even getting the bloodline in the first place its not a priority right now, especially with colonisation mechanic being as complicated as they are. Choosing the Bloodline - I changed the gfx of the emperor to Jogos Nhai:

I'm working on a skinchanger society (more a loose gathering like we saw in the varamyr chapter than anything too formal) and the rank 4 power will let you track to tame exotic animals (hrakkar, lion, whale etc) and so I was wondering if anyone reckons they can do a decent mammoth (its gonna be a fun one - lots of martial and morale offense - just need to hope you can pursuade the giants not to kill you whilst you're taming it) also I'm thinking of a unicorn as well? Remember in the books they're one horned goats so nothing too "horsey" |

would Shadowcat be included? i'm kinda Fascinated with Shadowcats .-. Well any skinchanger can join the society including shadowcats, I'm not currently considering shadowcats as one of the "legendary animals" you can obtain at level 4 - I'm thinking of the ones that are basically unobtainable via other means, so mammoth, hrakkar, lion, a unicorn (if I decide to go for it) are all unobtainable via any other means - the quest will take at least a few months and can kill you if you're not careful, so the reward being a shadowcat just feels a bit mundane for the risk and cost of it all. What I will say is, in order to qualify for the level 4 quest of seeking out rare animals to tame you have to have the Blood of the Great Warg or Blood of the Winged Wolf already, so there is a reasonable chance you have a shadowcat already by this point. In terms of other animals that can be gained, both the level 2 quest where you learn from a level 3 society member and the level 3 event where you meditate on the old gods can if you get super lucky give you a new animal companion, but these are quite low tier animals - dogs, cats, crows, sometimes an eagle, and one super super rare permutation where if you are meditating and focusing on channelling animal fury into your fighting for the level 3 quest you can get a brown bear if you don't have one (don't expect this to happen very much at all - its basically the same chance as an alchemist discovering fire creatures) |
