Imbecilic
I keep getting the Imbecilic trait on governors, it says it's from lack of Scribes or Libraries, but I have one province with a lvl 2 Scribes. Does every province need a Scribe or Library to help them from not becoming Imbecilic?

From my experience you need it in every province, but this special trait triggers relatively rarely. I usually get it 2-3 times in a whole campaign...

Ok well I kept getting it enough to build a Scribes to lvl 2 and then noticed that didn't help much. I would think Scribes and Libraries should at least reach to adjacent provinces to reduce the chance for this trait significantly. Building one in every province doesn't seem feasible

You are correct. This should be, however, offset by the fact that this perk should trigger relatively rarely.

It's not rare for me I feel like such an imbecile I've had even more since the last message I posted

1 or 2 of my governors also gain that trait when im playing as Circenn. It kinda seems like if you dont have any Scribes or Library in the province will trigger the trait.

Im having this problem as well, I wish someone would make a "no negative traits mod" like the one made for rome 2. This is just plain CA dickery right here

Have you tried moving the character to a province with library or scribe to remove the trait?

On the other hand why bother? It's only -1 command and governance. It's actually completely ignorable, like most negative traits.

It seems to me that it isn't only from lack of those buildings, but also in combo with bad stuff happening in that governor's province.

If you keep having rebels spawn in provinces, food shortages, money shortages, etc. then more negative traits come in than if things were running well.

I think all that other stuff is in the green, although the trait isn't crippling I've been looking at the mod editor DAVE to see if I can get the scribes and libraries to extend to adjacent provinces, then a few strategic placements should cover the kingdom.

But I need help I don't know what I'm doing, I found the table "trait_triggers" which contains "vik_trigger_governor_shameful_stupid" which has the conditions:

context:character():has_region() and char_is_governor(context:character()) and context:character():turns_in_own_regions() >10 and not

(context:character():region():building_exists("vik_library_1") or
context:character():region():building_exists("vik_library_2") or
etc etc etc...

So if I can add a new context that has region_adjacent but I'm not sure if that option exists I need to see a list of contexts that are available.
