New symbols next to councilor names

[TheRealHoltzinator]

I’ve come back to this game after being away for bit, and when I am at the stage of selecting a target for a detain councilor mission there are two symbols next to the target councilors’ names in the drop down list. One is the faction symbol, so no confusion there. The other is a yellow triangle with a white line through it or in another case a magnify glass (which I know is investigation, but I need to know what it means when it shows up during target selection). Does anyone know why these symbols are there?

That mean - this councilor have dangerous traits and you should consider if you really want to assassinate him/her.

too bad martyr doesn't show that way/any way. It would also be good to have untouchable with red traiangle instead of yellow tbh

I would say - Untouchable shouldn't be marked as dangerous at all, while Martyr should scream about it.

Beloved also not completely no-no. At least while you have less then 10-20 atrocities.

Actually that ‘white line through’ is an exclamation mark if you look closely… lol, which means this enemy councilor bears a trait that will place a ‘mark’ on your assassin if anything less than a ‘critical success’ assassination attempt were carried out, being ‘marked’ will result in your said assassin councilor getting restlessly hunted by that faction. It is a line of event along which you were given several chances to shatter their retaliation attempt by choices that require relative resources to make just like in any other events, if you succeed the ‘marked’ trait will be removed permanently, if you fail……since I nipped their petty assassination plan in the bud by their third attempt, I don’t really have a clue what would happen if you screw it all but normally a successful retaliation wouldn’t end without some blood shed… :p
