Self assassination?

[bogieman]

I checked through the diplomacy and mission text files there is a faction mission called Regicide. The mission is to assassinate the faction leader. I have received this mission once while playing. In that case it was to assassinate the faction leader of an allied faction. There is also a council of nobles mission to assassinate a general. There is a line in that mission commented out:

; character_type named_character

I would think that you could add another mission and set the conditions so you don't get some dip as an heir.

They're not character of your same faction though. You simply cannot kill characters of your faction unless you write a script using console commands.

It's a shame, It seems fitting for a faction to kill off the less able members of it's family. Oh well.
