Bearly Legal?

[KingPhilipII]

Lmao I dont think I have ever recieved a message like this in game but apparently My nephew has turned into a polar bear.. I can either kill him.. "bear.6.undo." which reverses the transformation and the other two seem to be just questioining the fact he's a bear and doesnt explain what the results may be.. So I guess I will click on "what foul sorcerie is this" or whatever the option was which basically provides no result that I can see but I hope it provides an answer later on..

The bear is a commander of Mine btw.. So now I have a bear commanding My retinues.

i would just start playing Ironman, where you don't have to deal with knowing the in game mechanics. as a newbie, you can always drop the difficulty level of your game down one notch, knowing that ironman is one step harder than default.

I did this when i first learned to play this game.

since then, i have upped the difficulty to default and harder.

I have 960+ hours in this game.. I know how to play.. I simply stated I have never seen the bearly legal event.. especially any event having a bugged option such as bear.6.undo.

im more than happy to take time out of my life and enjoyment to help others better enjoy and understand this game. now if you'd like to put your cute little level 1 sword down, we cold start to adress your grievances.

or you could enjoy using this thread to get a 'real word' from the devs. either way.

I was curious about bears.. you said play ironman mode. Perhaps I am confused by what you persieve to be "helpful" but it was not. It was actually the oppposite of helpful from My perspective. So again, thank you, but its not needed after this point as I will no longer be able to see communications from you.

i'll never understand this. Am i supposed to be offended? should i be upset that some noob not only refused my answer, but also called me a troll and blocked me?

i dont get it.

whatever, duder. i hope you enjoy the game. its worth playing.

hey, just b/c im going to start text singing robin hood songs. i hope the OP gets them.

Robin hood and little john, walkin through the forest, laughing back and forth at what the other'n had to say.

I can't remember if Ive seen that event or not, but is it connected to lunacy or something like that? I know Emperor Gaius (Caligula) made his horse Consul so there is presidence for many of the things in game...

Erm your response had 0 to do with OPs statement

You can get supernatural events even in Ironman mode, unless you specifically undo them

Holy carp, it's so refreshing to be looking at CKII files again. Stellaris modding feels just wrong enough to be frustrating when you started on CKII. Anyway, here's the low-down. Don't continue reading if you want to avoid spoilers.



Here's how the Bear Event is triggered: There's a base 1-in-10,000 chance every year that the event "bear.7" is triggered, assuming that the Supernatural Events rule is turned on. It can also only happen for a feudal or patrician ruler (so it woun't trigger if you're nomad or tribal, I guess? Kind of weird that you can't get a Tribal bear, but whatever.)

That 1-in-10,000 chance is modified by your traits. The event is 10 times more likely to fire (per in-game year) if you're a Lunatic, 2 times as likely if you're Paranoid, and 1/5 as likely to fire if you're Trusting.

bear.7 selects one of your close family members at random who:
-Hasn't already been set as a Secret Bear
-Isn't a prisoner
-Is at your court
-Is an adult, and younger than 40
-Isn't Incapable (no turning into a bear when you've got a bad case of the Flu, I guess?)
-Is an AI

It then gives this character a hidden flag called "secret_bear," and the player gets a number of events about how that character is acting weird, culminating in the "Bearly Legal" event. You can either transform the character back to normal (bear.6.undo), let him go about his business, or (if you're a Cannibal, Lunatic or Hunter, you can kill the bear: if you use the option unlocked by the Hunter Trait, then you also get 100 Prestige.

The event chain ends here, so it's really up to you whether you want to turn him/her back, keep him/her as a bear, or hunt The Most Dangerous Game.

Nah, there are seperate events about that (Glitterhoof).
The bears are an ongoing joke in Paradox games not really related to it.

hmm well It was My cousin.. and he is now his own branch of My family it would seem as he no longer has the black blood drop of a bastard and his Smith family crest changed to that of a dog or something. He is the count of Jerusalem and has two children.. A son named Rawr and a daughter named Grrrowr. I could not find another bear for him to marry so, atm he only has human children.
