Pure-blooded

[Dimwit Donald (very high IQ)]

I took the trait in the character creator, but none of my children *ever* inherit it. Am I missing something? It's supposed to be inherited...

[Hydra_360ci]

umm... idk... I don't use character creation.
All I see on wiki is this...

Don't judge me... if you know a better way to cultivate positive inheritable traits, just let me know...

Actually, I just save scummed the ♥♥♥♥ out of a child birth and it turns out it is actually inheritable, but extremely rare (maybe 1/10 or less). Don't know what the odds are when both parents have the trait.

i think if only one parent has it, it is a very low chance for inheritance. your chance of getting it should increase if both parents have it

[Hydra_360ci]

Wiki Says:
15% chance for single parent and 75% for both.

I *do* have the "strong blood" dynasty bonus, though. But I guess it doesn't actually count as congenital but something else...

Strong Blood doesn't guarantee trait inherito, it just boosts the chance. If you have Strong Blood and both parents have it, you should have a pretty much guaranteed chance of the kid getting it

Best way to get it is via Character creation with Pure Blood, pick Intrigue and Seduction, take on an army of Lovers and marry one of the children with pure blood as well to increase the chances of the child Inheriting it.

In game:
I think Pure Blooded is a dominant inherited trait, Meaning if both biological parents have it, then 75% chance any offspring will have it. This way you can marry close relatives together with reduced risk of producing inbred traits.

How to get it:
a). Either you got to endure inbreeding long enough for the trait to appear spontaneously
OR
b) Find the trait outside your family (ideally twice) and breed it in. Hard to find though.

Yeah, thanks for helping me out with this. I discovered the wiki myself by now. As it turns out, chances are good when both parents have it (75%), poor when only one has it, and laughable when neither have it and they are just closely related (something around 2% ?).

So... My best bet right now is to continue breeding with that one child that actually received the trait. A few generations down the road and we will be the ULTIMATE MASTER RACE!!!!

edit: If you care to know, I took pure blood, strength 1, intelligence 1 and beauty 3 so I can stay below 400 and immediately get the strong blood dynasty "perk". This run will be all about the master race...
Also took "Messalianism", lol. I had no idea there were christian folks so liberal at the time.

I'd keep a sharp look out for it in the find spouse lists though.

Socotra starts as Nestorium? which can be flipped to that, the issue is the Caliphate above you....
One area you can have a bit of a head start in the Island just below Greece, you can get Religious protection for Fealty and try to get the laws to non revocable over the first Rulers span.

What? No, I just started (early start) in the southern half of sardinia and took Norse & Messalianism. It's one of the sects that doesn't exist from the start otherwise. Norse being the adventuring cosmopolitans that they are, it even feels kinda "lore-friendly". Messalianists are cool with sibling marriage, homosexuality, beastiality, total gender equality... I'm conquering northern africa right now, bringing the world unrestricted love and equality, lol.

"Pure-Blooded" is the opposite of the "Inbred" trait.
Both can only appear on characters whose parents are sharing common ancestors.

The variables and developer explanation can be found in

/common/defines/00_defines.txt


You can also read the article here

https://ck3.paradoxwikis.com/Family_(relation)#Inbreeding

(the section just above the article also shows the inherit chance for pure-blooded if already present on either parents)



Note that most characters don't have enough shared ancestors at game start, so the explanation in the wiki doesn't necessarily apply.

For example if you start the game with a Ruler Designer character who doesn't have recorded ancestors (like 99.9% of the existing characters), his children will only share 2 common ancestors. The game takes up to 4 generations of ancestors into account, so it takes a while for this to kick in. Example:

Parents (2)

Parents (2) + Grandparents (4) = 6

Parents (2) + Grandparents (4) + Great-Grandparents (8) = 14

Parents (2) + Grandparents (4) + Great-Grandparents (8) + GGG Parents (16) = 30



IIRC - the effects from the "Strengthen Bloodline" modifer and the "Blood" Dynasty Legacy are additive in all the formulas. Probably except the +400% chance for new positive traits...

it might just be that your wife is seeing another guy, don't know what else to tell you

It requires inbreeding. For example a brother and sister have a kid and it will have it. Think about it... "Pure"-blooded. I remember in the in-game description it said something like it too.
