Characters and Cretins - Unique character traits, finally you care about your generals

Description
This mod grants each character except historic generals one of 6 normal and 6 "disordered" personalities. Each personality has a cluster of 7 affects which are significant enough to influence player choice about generalship and governorship throughout the campaign. Sometime after turning 55 characters will become less zealous and slightly better (or less bad!) at managing provinces.

Intended to be played with a 4 turn per year mod

The personalities are:
Melancholic, Sanguine, Phlegmatic, Choleric, Philosophic, Virtuous, Obsessive, Narcissistic, Dependent, Borderline, Histrionic and Sociopath.

Each personality gets a cluster of effects across unit morale, movement speed, upkeep cost, public order, culture, tax income, authority, zeal, cunning and gravitas (each personality only gets 7 effects for balance and comprehensibility)

I will Update now, this looks like it will be a blast- I just hope it'll work with other mods that don't affect characters

Updated for Patch 17 (finally). Negative characteristics are more strongly negative now as I was finding during the campaign that experience was cancelling out all the disadvantages of a given trait

Thanks, just ran a "stress test" and it all seems to be working fine

None to report from me.

Any bug reports like unusual freezes on AI turns?

Try it along with a mod called Optimates and Populares. That mod gets rid of the families (which arent represented well anyway) and replaces them with the aforementioned 2 political parties.
