Traits gained by Defeating a Legendary Lord (Norsca, Bretonnia)

I frequently see questions concerning which Traits can be gained from beating Legendary Lords as Norsca and Bretonnia (the only ones implemented so far (13.8.2017). So I thought I share what I found out so far. This is the first Guide I'm creating and english is not my native language so I'm sorry if this entire thing ends up looking rather crude.

Introduction

As Norsca, Wintertooth, Bretonnia, Bordeleaux and Carcasonne you can get traits for defeating Legendary Lords.

As of the today (18.10.2017) the guide is complete to many people who helped me gather the informaton, you can find them in the coments of the guide.

if no traits will be altered then you can get them as every Lord in Warhammer II Mortal Empires as of the 26.10.2017 if that will be the case I will do a complete guide in Warhammer II with all factions.

Still looks ugly but no clue how to change that easily.

FAQ

Why didn't my Lord get a trait for defeating xyz ?

So there are two things which have to be true, to be eligble for a trait for defeating a Legendary Lord.

1. Defeat a Legendary Lord, of which you don't have the Trait yet on the Lord which is leading the attack
   
2. Don't already have 15 Traits on the Lord which is leading the attack

Do you have to kill them with your lord?
No, defeat only, wounding is not nescessary

Can you get them in autocombat?
Yes

If I defeat several LL at the same time do I get multiple traits?
Good question, I think yes I did so once but I'm not sure if I remeber correctly I'm about 90% sure it works. of course your Lord still has to have less that 15 Traits to get them though.

If I support my Lord with an second army, and that Lord doesn't have the Trait yet Does he get it aswell ?
No, only the leading Lord gets the Trait by the rules outlined above

that sucks
that's not a question; but yes it does

Is 15 Traits the Limit for Traits
no, but it seems to be the limit for getting LL traits. In one of my vanilla campaigns my Wulfrik had 19 Traits of which only 1 was from defeating an LL and another one was his starting Trait

Annotation 1

It seems if you attack any Lord who would get reinforcment from a Legendary Lord but you block him with Lighning strike you still get the Trait for defeating the legendary Lord. I assume this is a bug and will be resolved (17.8.2017)

@Vasar oh, well no I don't think there is a guide to that yet, but I can make one if there is interest in it.

[Vasar]

@Azrael, it's not the subject that I wanted :)
I'd like to know about multilevel traits like severity [not sure it should be written that way because I play with Russian localization :) ].

Is there any information about lord dynamic traits (not the random ones) in Total War: Warhammer 2?

[Grimstock]

Funny some of the quotes for the traits goes

[Azrael]

@harleyquinrazer nice with that we have finally everything

Doomslayer: The Everchosen may rise and rise again, but he will forever be consigned to oblivion!

Pride Assassin: Pride comes before a fall. Always.

Kholek Suneater - Stormblight

Grombrindal: Beardhammer

This time the tables have been turned on the last Dawi redoubt, but he'll be back to avenge himself - be certain of that!

I tested Ghorst's poison with Throgg. It seems that it removes frostbite, Throgg's poison brought swordsmen's speed to 25 while my Ice Troll's frostbite brought another group of swordsmen to 17. They do not stack but instead overrides the other.
