Ok, so I'm playing the XL mod. I'm the Byzantines, the year is 1217, I've conquered all of the Balkans, Crimea, Asia Minor, Antioch, Tripoli, and that's about it. Now I want to make things harder for myself. I want to start a civil war to overthrow the Komnenian dynasty, but I don't want to lose all the 7-9 star generals I've built up. I have 240,000 florins in the treasury. How can I most effectively lower the loyalty of all these generals without killing them?

Also I have another somewhat related question. What kinds of negative traits can a king get? I've seen my kings get the Steward and Builder traits but never anything negative. If I could give them some negative traits without badly damaging my empire, that would be cool because then I could lower my general's loyalties all-around the board.
