So.... this is possible.

 

[cardgame]

That's absolutely fantastic

 

[Arakhor]

Why in all that is holy is there a horse character in the Charlemagne start?

 

[Maniacal]

You get it with the lunatic trait I think.

 

[Quintillus]

That's pretty awesome. Made all the more so by the puns.

 

[Double A]

You get it with the lunatic trait I think.

To elaborate, there's a lunatic event where you hire your horse, Glitterhoof, as chancellor. It used to result in you just firing your chancellor but now you get a 0/0/0/0/0 courtier. It's easily the best event in the game.

It's easily the best event in the game.

What about the Spawn of Satan event chain?

 

[Double A]

Keshi > Satan.

Is the dark blue down in Wales and Cornwall part of Pictland?

 

[Ailedhoo]

The Pics have those parts, yes. As for my English holdings; you can thank the marriages the Kingdom of Bavaria conducted.

Recently went on the crusade; though I, then Charles VII, claimed much of Jerusalem with my HRE death-stacks it was the Doge of Venice who gained the Kingdom of Jerusalem; I have a large merchant republic vessel now.

Being a suspected demon spawn certainly fits with the pattern of deceased siblings.

 

[Ailedhoo]

Spoiler before HRE :

Spoiler HRE formed :

It took plenty of time but the Grand Prince of Ireland became (through force) Grand Prince of Francia and thus came to found the Holy Roman Empire!

 

[cardgame]

An HRE that isn't the slightest bit German? How perverse.

 

[Ailedhoo]

Bonus points: the Germans, thanks to having been founded under the French, are now ruled by French monarchs.

I think she only killed the two younger boys. The eldest son got killed in a battle and the girl died of sicklyness.

 

[Arakhor]

I thought that the red skull indicated a known murder victim.

 

[Double A]

The tooltip says who killed them, and clicking it brings up the killer's page. It works for murders, deaths in battle, duels, sacrifices, and executions.

 

[Arakhor]

Ah, so the killer is known, but not necessarily as the murderer? It's been a while since I played CK2.
