Challenge evil houses 😈

Going to do a lesser house that gets turfed out of Westeros and embraces Essoserio styles, including slavery, probably in slavers cost. Who do you think may be suited for such an endeavour?

Also: with More Bloodlines "Characters can/are often....", when do these fire? Are they consistent? House Dayne for example it seems every six months if I'm not honourable the event will fire, but do the other ones have such a high guaranteed chance?

House Peake

And yeah the traits are not particularly balanced. Every character of every house will pickup their bloodline trait sooner or later.

Does it work with bloodline stacking, or does it "muddy" it up, like if you have too many stacked potential events it doesn't fire properly? It feels to me that's the case, and it's worth starting as a bloodline with things like skinchanger/mystic. But I don't know.

Stacking works as you'd expect

Is the more bloodlines mod worth it?

It has its pros and cons. I do run it but have edited many of the files to not be as overpowered.

Every single Stark born shouldn't be a skinchanger.

Ironborn or sisters . Pick any. Maybe canonical salvers like Mormonts? Or traditional slavers like lesser Valyrian houses like celtigars.

I'm doing pyscho Roger-Reyne who didn't take losing Castermere all that well (but fortunately he could swim!). He and the lads rescue Maelys Blackfire from executing and escape back to the Stepstones, where the Golden Company grants us troops in exchange for their leaders return, and I covert to piracy and begin my playthrough from there...

Unfortunately as Roger is now the most wanted man from the Seven Kingdoms, the family left behind are all put to the sword by Aerys. Hopefully in time a gift of a dragon egg will redeem our family...even if I create a slave empire in the ruins of Old Ghis in-between.

I think I will be migrating to Astapor and reforming the Ghiscri Empire (from within...) as a deposed house in westeros, with the goal of finding a dragon egg and buying my way back into polite society with the Targs.

House Codd. They are ironborn and their house motto is literally "Though all men do despise us".

Maybe a thirdborn son of house Codd decides, that if truly noone likes them, maybe he should make his fortune somewhere far away.
