Changing character culture
So, I've been playing for quite a while now on this character and only just realised how big a deal your character culture is. I am getting -3 loyalty because I chose the only decent culture bonus left (Battania) while wanting to be a Sturgian lord. Got a settlement and the loyalty is horrendous. is there any way to change my culture? I really don't want to get rid of the character just because of this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mechanic...

Sorry, but I don't quite understand where to find the mod. Which mod list? Is it on steam somewhere or nexus or moddb? It does sound like what I'm looking for though.

Alright, thanks to the both of you! I really didn't look forward to having to redo everything I did to get to this point haha.

In case anybody else is looking: it's called the 'character manager'.

Certainly is, first link I posted is to its mod page on nexus mods! Happy gaming! P.s loyalty debuff is completely manageable, some planning can help.

I post same culture governor, build up security structure and choose festivities as daily activity. Never had an issue.

That's what I do, too. Most recently, my character, a Sturgian, was awarded an Empire town. I quickly married my older brother to a nice Imperial girl and set her up as governor. Then I started building security, throwing festivals and building fairgrounds, and the loyalty is slowly recovering.

But that all takes work, and why do all that work when you can slam in a mod?

Yep, mods work to :)

I noticed the loyalty drift mechanic can be a ♥♥♥♥♥ if you don't keep on eye on it.

I mean, I started at 24 loyalty when I got the settlement and it was going down even with a same culture governor... By the time I could've built anything it might've just up and revolted lol.

If you're Batannian culture but joined Sturgia you should be pushing for war with Battania and trying to get their towns for yourself. It's possible to be the wrong culture and own a town, but it's much easier if you only accept fiefs of your own culture. Of course that means deciding what you want for yourself before you ever create your character and joining that cultures enemies (unless you go Imperial).

Yeah, well, I used the serve as soldier mod and got 20000 rep with Sturgia and got Tyal as reward. I'm not sure if you can trade settlements for each other? I think there's some kind of perk for that, but that's probably max lvl trading or something, aka that's not happening any time soon. Even changing my culture with the editor hasn't actually taken away the penalty though, sadly. I'm no sure whether it just needs to 'update' or something, but I guess I'll find out if I ever get another settlement.

Can't help you there. I don't use mods, so i don't know which ones actually work right currently. The perk you're thinking about for trading fiefs is under the trade skill, but getting your trade high enough to use it is rough without using cheats.

Yeah, saw it's the end perk, aka 'No way in hell are you getting that high without being either bored out of your mind or cheating'... They really need to make the leveling a bit more interesting...

So I used the Character Manager to change my culture, but all my towns STILL have the -3 loyalty modifier. Is there anyway of getting rid of that modifier?

No clue, I remember having the same thing happen to me. Have you received/taken another settlement since then? Might be that it just doesn't update and you need to trade/lose and regain the settlement.
