    Default Trait Suggestions

    I didn't know where to put this so I created a new thread. Apologies if there was a more appropriate thread.

    I have been thinking about the "Subject of Rumours" trait. The trait appears when a man's wife is casual with other men.

    At present, this only has the effect of -1 influence. I think this should have a couple other effects though too. I think it should increase the fertility of the wife by +1, but with a 50% chance that the son will have the "not like his father trait." Furthermore, there should be a "Father was the subject of Rumours" trait which lowers influence. Lastly, it should be possible for him to "have a son" after he's dead, but if this occurs the son is born with the "Illegitimate son" which has influence -3.

    Note - I entitled the thread broadly so that others with trait suggestions could offer them here, too.

    This particular bit is impossible, as the engine will only check for births if both the man and woman is alive. The rest seems like a good idea though.

    Which was not unknown. Roman men with the cognomen Postumus are children born after their father died.

    I've always wanted to see some sort of Nudist trait for the Celts.
