1. A princesse should be able to inherit the throne of your country if no sons are available, and if she is marrieid to a general of your faction her husband should inherit the throne, and you live on in the absence of sons.
2. You know how all the princess did in MTW 1 was either offer alliance, offer marriage to another faction, or make your generals more loyal?
You may also remember when occassionally in RTW a general had a good or bad wife as a virtue/vice (Good wife increases influence, bad one reduces it)?
Well I would like to see the princesse gain the ability to offer adultery in order to gain leverage for an alliance/ceasefire/agreement/bribe etc, either offering herself as a bribe (But you still have her. You could just offer the adultery to a nuetral/enemy king/prince (won't work with diplomats, they are not high ranking enough), it does nothing apart from makeing it a secret vice in both of them. Now naturally the princesse can now blackmail the prince or king she just went to bed with into accepting your terms!
Now the princesse also gets vices and virtues as these things go along. A princesse who can seduce plenty of princes gets seductive traits (Increases the chances for success in temporarily offering herself for her country), they also get easy traits the more they seduce (lessens their likeliness to be accepted into a marriage with another faction).
Naturally the higher her seductive traits the worse a wife virtue her husband will get so beware of giving her in marriage to your greatest general/highest acumen governor, since if you have used her enough he will get the "rumors", "cuckold wife", "Wife has no shame" etc etc etc traits.
However if you keep a princesse is innocent the general who marries her gets the "Wife beyond reproach" trait which unlike the others greatly helps his influence, and possibly acumen.
On top of the marriage penalties if you make your princesse a cuckold, remember she may one day be in line for a throne under my princesse upgrade suggestions and you don't want a woman who has a character trait of "Might as well work in a brothel" to be the Queen.
So how do you like the idea of the princesse as a super diplomat who uses her feminine charms, and also be in line for the throne of your country should there be no men available.
