Bastards in bannerlord

[Dildozer]

I was wondering if bastards would be a thing in bannerlord? Maybe you can bone another lords wife and create bastards? Or have a bastard of your own that can cloud succession? Bastards in history have caused many problems for dynastic rulers what do you all think?

Well it depends on who you bone, If you bone a black chick then you get a different color/colxr bastard than if you bone a white chick. It's all genetics dude take a biology class.

Oh snap, someone didn't get the memo regarding the new paradigm. Sociology > biology.

Genetics and biology are both inherently racist principles instituted by the white supremacist patriarchy. All humans are 100% alike!

Well i am sure that there are bastards playing bannerlord as anyone born out of wed lock is considered a bastard and we all know that with the erosion of traditional family units there are more bastards than ever.

I want to talk about the impact that bastards can have on the SP sandbox game.

There was a bastard character in warband
Prince Valdym the Bastard, claimant to the throne of the Kingdom of Vaegirs.

So it better be a thing in Bannerlord unless they are making a worse game.

Actually now that dynasties are a thing if your legitimate son inherit your throne a bastard could challenge his claim. This could may be provide a hit to the right to rule and may be relations to other lords. Would've been nice

Or may be as a new lord/king he could purge his father's bastards.

Don't see it coming to the game though. Too late now.

According to the blogs, if you die early in the game you will spawn in a new body, so you must have family somewhere. Might be the bastard son of some bar maid Papa met many years ago. You could become the bastard your looking for.

You either live as a bannerlord and father bastards or you die early enough to see yourself becoming the bastard.

I like this idea, imagine you will make some lord mad, but he will capture your castle and kill your family+ player die. it will not be GAME OVER, but player continue in game and will have first quest like bastard: Make claims on his dead father cityes/castles etc... so there is hope player can continue + get old possessions, but with drawback... like low stats/level/random skill, etc... ( there is plenty of backgrouds to pick from like classic new game menus )

I like this idea too. A wild night after a tournament and suddely you have to care about one kid more in the future.

[An Easy Target]

To be honest, this seems like it could be a pretty impressive feature.

I think I remember there being dedicated family trees for Lords in this game. With all the changes from Bannerlord, I wonder if this would also include for Claimants? If any characters would happen to already be "bastard children", I'd imagine at least one Claimant to mostly likely be such.
