PKs special titular lad grew up a wadh, coming out of his mothers tutlidge a brave content webweaver with 1800 prestige and a suprisingly firm grasp on hia vassal's manparts.
I figured the best ambition for him was either learning (to get at least some passive research) or martial (because whollycow -40% or greater malus to levies). I went for warmonger, and the game obliged by rolling an early cruel trait to justify my meta.
rampaging up sjivjords arsehole and down pomeranias, i slowly but surely gained land, followers, and martial skill. at his height, our drooling overlord commanded a respectible 13 martial and +4 personal combat skill.
the game tried to get me to duel a +6 personal combat high chief of mine because he was plotting to murder his wife. haha, no, lets not duel the demigod of war with an imbecile king with a male dynasty of him. tempted to because its a good story, but i like winning more.
Pisskop rejected his first wife, cancelling their bethrothal because the ward fucked her up mentally. got married to the daughter of a norseman, who produced 5 children despite hating my cruel imbecile murderer guts.
At age 55, I like to imagine pk read a book on Alexander, as per the event, and decided to invent the title emperor of awesome.
Giving finland to 3rd son and poland to second son, pks last act was to imprison Polandson and walk off to raid a temple, dying in combat.
.
Pk3 has a good martial education and quickly subjugated finland back into the empire. his job is to reform the faith and take the remnants of bohemia before the currently unified France gets rolling.
France is unified, avaria still exists and has a 5000 troop event stack that hung out at my border for the past 50 years, rus and ruthinia exist and are mad about me having a duchy or two, and i might conquer sweden+denmark as the path of least resistance, since I kneecapped sweden already.
For what its worth, I married a daughter into a perm chief, and he is now the king of perm. so enh? all in all a good king, though the nonresearch and poor income and reduced levies hurt me
