This is a tiny mod to More Bloodlines that resurrects a few bloodlines and tries to keep others from dying out.
It adds bastard children and other minor history tweaks which are plausible but non-canon. It also adds an optional decision on Aegon VI to reveal an alternative heritage--this can be done as a targeted decision, you don't have to be playing Aegon.
Last are a few decisions to keep bloodlines or dynasties alive. You can flip marriages to matrilineal in a specific case of a woman with a bloodline married to a non-ruler (or a lower-ranked ruler) who does not have a bloodline—this can't be used on important families (because bloodlines) but can be a lifesaver when someone's last daughter marries a nobody. You can also seek legitimization of orphaned bastards.
Use them as last resorts (by right-clicking the target's portrait) to keep something from vanishing. AIs won't use this decision on their own.
v0.4 download: s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=03438495238235517364
Depends on AGOT 2.1 and More Bloodlines 2.1, compatible with everything (only new files).
Changelog:
Happy to take proposals to add more descendants or make minor tweaks that improve the survivability of the endangered bloodlines, as long as the tweaks are subtle enough to be ignored if someone isn't looking for them. I am a huge fan of the More Bloodlines mod, so hope that this helps keep all the awesome new bloodlines active and around in your games.

Bonus: Trimmed down mod if you just want the Aegon decision: s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=02836442603839033979

Changelog:
0.4
- Baela and Rhaena of Pentos have female descendants, in Pentos.
- A great-granddaughter of Elaena the Prudent is married into the Masseys.
- Samantha Tarly has a female Rainhill descendant.
- Sabitha Vipren "of the Twins" has some descendants among the Freys and Paeges.
- Johanna Westerling has a female Piper descendant.
- You can matrilinealize a marriage when both members are the same dynasty (the only effect of this is to preserve the wife's bloodlines).
0.3
- Four new bastards: Alyn Qoherys, Roger Reyne (son of Roland), Hendry Harroway, Quent Hightower (son of the White Bull).
- Tulysa, mother of the Blackmont cousins, descends from the Blackfyre-era Daenerys. This preserves Daenerys & Larra Rogare's bloodlines
- Declaring Blackfyre heritage should keep a dynamic coat-of-arms and keep any bloodlines not possessed by Rhaegar Targaryen.
0.2
- The "Obtain Legitimisation" decision for your children can now be used on any orphaned bastards (no parents to protest).
- Black Alys now has some northman descendants: Mormonts, Wells, and Lightfoot.
- Bastard for Arthur Dayne, bastard lines for the Greyirons and Harren the Black.
- Bloodraven & Bittersteel descendants are trueborn but disinherited, so the dynasty name sticks without disrupting inheritance.
- Gregor Clegane now has a trueborn son.
- Tormund Giantsbane's daughter has been sent to Skagos to protect her from the White Walkers.
0.1
- Bloodraven has a bastard son before he abandoned the wall, now in Sealshore.
- Bittersteel has a bastard grandson, serving in the Golden Company.
- Shiera Seastar has a great-granddaughter, same name, in Lys.
- Mors Westford is on the wall, but he now has a bastard brother back home.
- Renly Baratheon left behind a bastard in the Reach, specifically in Tumbleton (it's a big stretch)
- Wynafrei Whent is past childbearing age, but lives with her brother Oswell's bastard.
- Duncan the Tall left behind a bastard in Kings Landing.
- Lucimore the Liar claims heritage from ancient river kings, the Justmans.
- The posthumous son of Robb Stark has been disinherited and is being raised by Jeyne as a Westerling.
- Walter Frey's Blackwood wife was descended from Black Alys, a few Freys and Braxes carry her blood.
- Rodrik the Reader, still a widower, now has a couple of daughters to continue the line.
- To continue the Balon Greyjoy line, Asha begins AFFC pregnant with bastard twins, unknown father.
- Bellegere Otherys is a marriageable ex-concubine from ACOK onwards.
- One of Tormund Giantsbane's sons now starts the game working for Jon Snow - Tormund often gets White Walkered.
- Aegon can be revealed as the grandson of Maelys Blackfyre. The event blocks awarding titles to Golden Company mercs, so wait until that happens.
- Baela and Rhaena of Pentos have female descendants, in Pentos.
