你的总督们都因酗酒而瘫痪了？你受够了让愚蠢的白痴领导你的军队了吗？为什么所有好的红衣主教职位都落到了其他讨厌的国家手里？本指南将为你揭示特质与触发条件的隐秘世界！ 什么是特质与触发条件 特质是影响家族成员的特征，其效果有正面也有负面。要收集正面特质，避开负面特质。 特质由触发条件产生。你可以影响其中一些触发条件，这将在本指南中详细说明。 举个例子：“酒鬼”特质的触发条件是家族成员待在有妓院建筑的定居点。如果你不想要这个特质，就避开建造妓院。 触发条件大多符合逻辑且易于理解。我建议根据家族成员的能力（特性）来选择，并在战场上的将领和城镇中的总督之间进行专业化分工。特性会影响角色的能力，如指挥、骑士精神、忠诚度、权威和虔诚。此外，特性还会带来额外的属性，例如增加贸易收入。

It determines how often rebels arise and how easily family members with little loyalty desert. Also, the general with the highest authority is always the faction heir. With this in mind you can plan and manipulate your sucsession politics. For all other generals authority ist hidden and replaced by Loyalty. It determines how easily family members can rebel or be bribed Authority -It's best to leave the fighting and conquering to the general you want as your prince and your king .

This gives “Content General” - Losing battles or staying in distant settlements or castles without stone walls is bad for loyalty. This gives “Discountend general” - loyalty will increase, if your Faction leader and the general have both at least 3 Chivilliary. However, it decreases loyality if the faction leader has 3 dread and the general has 3 chivilliary. Loyalty is also reduced when a Chivilliarous general kills prisoners or exterminates a settlement - an excommunicated king destroys the loyalty of family members with high piety - Marriage to a princess gives +3 loyalty Economic traits Traits 4 taxes & Law - Always keep taxes as high as possible. This will generate “Good Administrator” Low taxes and high public order on the other hand produce “bad administrators.” So taxes should always be as high as possible. - If the taxes are at the highest level possible, the public order is at "blue face" and a building is completed there is a 75% chance of getting the "Good Taxemen" trait - If your treasury is negative, you have a 4% chance of getting the useful traits like "Cheapskate & Miserly" - Uprisings and rebellions in settlements have a 50% chance of traits like "Rabbleroucer, Disciplinarian, harsh justice & Authoritarian".

But be careful, these buildings also create the “expensive taste” trait. This is bad for tax revenue. Bad traits and how to avoid them - Never be in a settlement with a building of the brothel chain. This creates bad traits like "Drink", "Arse", "gambler" & "girls" - There is also an extremely low chance of these negative traits if your family member is idle in settlements or at a sea Voyage. However, the probability is less than 1% and the risk has to be accepted. -Never have more than 50k in the treasury and avoid settlements with a bank or the merchant quarter.

As a result, biological children become jealous and develop negative traits. - Assassination attempts create "paranoia". avoid enemy assassins. - Avoide staying in regions with more than 15% heretric religion. This will generate the negative "Pagan magician" retinue - Witches can curse you. Avoid that. Family & princess management It is important to note, that many negative traits like "ugly", "inbred", "insane" or "perverted" will be inherited by children of the affected character. Meanwhile, many positive traits like "handsome" or "fertile" can also be passed on to descendants. You should also note, that the number of offsprings is limited by the total number of living family members. So, bad family members will clog up your famiy tree and prevent the good ones from breeding. At the same time they will pass down their bad traits to their offsprings. It is therefore important to kill characters with bad traits and thus keep your family tree "clean" from spoilation. It is also important to note, that marriage with an princess with less than 3 levels of charme or negative traits like "ugly" or "infertile" will also negatively affect your offsprings and vice versa. So acepte for marriage with your faction heir only good quality princesses with at least 3 levels of charme. Her sons and daughters will inherit her good traits. - Staying in a settlement with a Birmastan or baths will cause the useful "Hale and Hearthy" trait. This improves health and the chances of having offsprings. Verry usefull 4 characters with gootd traits that should get many offsprings Breeding good princesses First it is important to know, that ony your king and the heir can "produce" new princesses. Secondly, the quality of new princesses is determined by traits of her father. To sum it up, "handsome" or "intelligent" fathers will produce "handsome" or "charming" princesses. Also, Kings and heirs with high chivalry or low authoriity produce good princesses That is why you should choose your heir allways after criteria like "handsome", "fertile" or "intelligent". If you found such a qualified man, let him crusade and become your faction heir through this crusading work. - Your princesses will also profit from sucsessfull diplomatic negotiations. - If a princess is comming of age and your tresaury is negative or at least less than 10k high, she will get the usefull "natural beauty" trait. - If a princess is comming of age and her father has the "aestetic" trait, she will get usefull cosmetics - getting to old or staying faraway from her home country will decrease her charme Traits 4 agents General Statements - Coresponding guilds will give newly recruited Agents positive traits like "member of x guild" - Higher level recruiting buildings will give newly created Agents positive traits. To give an example, a recruited priest will benefit from an high level abbey, a spy will benefit from an high level inn building. - Traits are created through actions. Like assassinations, negotiations, bribery, traiding or denunciations Priests - They benefit from high rates of religious conversion to your religion in a province, this will geneate "Purifier" or "Missionary". To maximise this effect, take a bunch of priests and move them all at the same time to a province with foreign religion or high level of heresy. But be carefull, if you fail to get any religious change in that province, you will generate the negative"WaveringFaith" trait. Merchants & Diplomats - Both types of agents generate good traits at their creation, if there is less than 70% of your religion at the site of creation. - Being createt or staying far away from your capitol generates good traits. So, create them at best at your crusading target. - Merchants get the "monopolist" trait, if a Region has more than 1 slot of the same ressource and your merchants occupy all of these ressource slots via traiding - Merchants benefit, when there is at the site of creation a town hall or better, or an alchemists lab or better.
