You can choose a character’s sex, sexual orientation, religion (from any faith that’s present in CK3), culture, and of course customise their appearance, none of which has any gameplay benefits or consequences. More like this: Check out our CK3 faith guide Creating custom heraldry is, sadly, one of the sacrificed features from the CK2 version – the devs had to put it to one side in order to make sure the core features would be ready in time.
The realm and rank is decided by who you choose to replace, and while the title itself can’t be renamed you can randomise the realm flag, as well as that of your own dynastic heraldry. When it comes to designing your own character, it’s pretty straightforward. Further to that, he didn’t have any claims or any specific negative modifiers that would indicate he ever was King of France.Ībout the only immediate impact I could detect from inserting a custom character into the shoes of an historical contemporary was that your vassals will carry an additional short reign penalty, but it warrants further testing. His dynasty and familial connections were all intact, he was simply no longer king. After starting the game and doing some digging, I found that Phillipe was still in the game, just as a landless character bumming around the French countryside. There doesn’t seem to be any limit on how many characters you replace via this feature, and it’s worth noting that once you’ve replaced a character, you can’t undo it without exiting to the main menu and starting again.Īs an interesting aside, during some light testing I decided to replace Phillipe as King of France with a throw-away custom design. From there, you can choose anyone who is coded into the game at the start of that period, and then you can replace them with a character of your own design. For science, you understand.įiring up the custom designer is pretty simple – simply pick a start date, and then enter the expanded character select view. We were given some early access to the new tool, and decided to have a play around with it. The new feature largely has the same functionality, although there have been a few changes and some omissions required in order to get it out sooner rather than later. Unlike last time – when it was a paid piece of DLC – the ruler designer’s latest incarnation is included in the free 1.2 patch which will release today. Creating a customised ruler was something Paradox rolled out pretty quickly after the launch of Crusader Kings II, and the studio is wasting no time putting the same functionality into its latest grand strategy magnum opus, Crusader Kings III.
