Anyone else run into this? I am playing as Arabia currently. I was granted a Merchant of Venice instead of a standard great merchant. It even can purchase and puppet a CS (even though the dialog says it will put it under the command of Venice). Venice is not an AI player in this game either. I had completed the Patronage track and a CS granted it to me. I went back before it happened with the Autosave, but couldn't replicate; the next time it gave me an Author instead.
