Blood of Valyria - A AGOT Submod

so this only effects the inbreeding and stuff and not the actual taming of dragons, i feel like your blood of valryia trait should directly correlate to your ability to claim a dragon or in game terms effect your dragon blood percentage. perhaps this is too complicated idk but it was the main reason they inbred in the first place.

Are there any plans updating this mod?

@Blackfish I agree sort of. Whilst there is traces of Valyrian blood within the free cities, it is only the Lyseni that are repeatedly mentioned to truly bear the resemblance and ancestry heralding the Valyrian empire. Specifically, more than anywhere else in Planetos, the blood of Valyria is strong even within the small folk of the Lyseni who espouse the atypical valyrian look (white/golden hair + purple eyes). The Volantene on the other hand, only have a small and specific sect that can trace purest and unbroken descent to the Valyrian empire however, the average Volantene does not posses that much in the same way it is notable within all the Lyseni. The Lyseni nobility are probably the only that can come close to the pure blooded Volantene; evidenced by Aegon IV's mistress who was the last daughter from an ancient (Valyria) but impoverished noble family.
James Aug 17 @ 8:06am 
@JimmyG1970 [CONT] The Velaryons themselves had intermarried/interbred with the noble populace's surrounding Driftmark prior to the Targaryens even setting up a colony in Dragonstone. They also never had pure dragon blood or pure valyrian blood because of that but remember they were laregly an inconsequential valyrian house in the grand scheme of the valyrian empire. Even the targaryens were ranked on the lower rung of the ladder of the forty dragon riding families that ruled the valyrian empire. Despite that, a member of House Targaryen has never failed to tame a dragon despite the danger the texts refers to. TLDR: The Targaryens stopped being pure dragon bloods the moment they married the Velaryons. The only "pure blood valryian" are the specific sect of the volatene who can trace unbroken descent to the freehold (soldiers and low nobles). Pure valyrian blood =/= dragon blood. Enjoy the mod, have fun, im just a nerd lol.
James Aug 17 @ 7:55am 
@JimmyG1970 That's my point. I understand this mod is for fun but there is no pure valyrian dragon blood. Nettles taming sheepstealer is strongly inferred to be as a consequence of the dragon's appetite coupled with the practices the Valyrian's used prior to delving into blood magic et al. After the doom, the Targaryen's ceased to be pure blooded the moment they interbred with the velaryons which was noted to be several times prior to the conquest and was evidenced by Aegon I's mother being a Velaryon whose own Velaryon parent was half a Targaryen also. Only the specifc sect of the volantene can trace unbroken and direct ancestry to the valyrian freehold and even then it isnt dragonblood its pure valyrian blood (soldiers and low nobles).
Blackfish Aug 1 @ 11:47am 
I have another question. Would spawning characthers with valyrian blood system break if i create a divergent culture from high valyrian?
Blackfish Jul 31 @ 3:45pm 
if someone else said it already im sorry but its a big lore accuracy issue for me

The Free Cities Each should have a degree of Valyrian Blood since they are continiously mentioned (especially Lyseni) to have Valyrian Blood still running strong in them. This normally wouldnt be a big issue but it significantly reduces the amount of Valyrian Blood with Targaryens,Velaryons and Celtigars.
something like (this could and should change)
Lyseni %60
Pentoshi%30
Tyroshi%30
Myrish%30

@Gorbish
If your mod modifies characters already present in the base version of the mod (usually Targaryens), then unfortunately no.

@HybridReaper

Hello,
Thank you for your comment.
My mod is compatible with LoV. However, I haven't added Valyrian blood traits to the characters because, in theory, all their descendants died during the Bookmark of Jaehaerys I (the end, I think). I didn't have the courage or time to create a submod for LoV ​​characters. That's why I gave players the ability to quickly add Valyrian blood traits. I'll probably patch it in when the "Dream of Valyria" update comes out so I can have everything at once.

Regarding the second question, there's no need to change their Valyrian blood percentage; culture is how they perceive themselves and are perceived, not their genes.

I hope I've answered your questions.

@linhp.pjm

Hello,
Thank you for your comment.
Which mod did you use to access Aegon's Conquest? If it was with the "AGOT Expansion: Aegon's Conquest" mod, I recommend deleting the character folder in the history folder (do the same for the AGOT Expansion: Aegon's Conquest FIX mod).

Do you have any mods that modify High Valyrians born before Aerys II? (Legacy of Valyria doesn't count.)

To add a trait to a character, you have two options:
-If you have enabled debug mode, or the game rule allows it, by clicking on Aegon and scrolling down, you have an interaction to add Valyrian blood traits.

-With debug mode, open the command, type "add_trait vi_100 *character id*." You can find a character's ID by hovering over it.

I'll look at the game files when I have time.
linhp.pjm Jul 10 @ 1:32pm 
Trying to play as Aegon the Conqueror and don't have the trait when spawned, but Orys does (he has 32/32). I tried to rearrange the mod orders, as well as made sure this is enabled in the game rules. I would try and debug it in console but don't know what input to use. Would appreciate any help! :)

HybridReaper Jul 9 @ 2:45pm 
Interested in testing this mod out, but it seems LoV doesn't work correctly with it. Starting as Aurion Varezys he doesn't start with any blood trait. Also I'm not sure if it's meant to work this way, but if you change house Celtigar for example to Westerosi Valyrian rather than the starting High Valyrian it doesn't change their respective blood trait.
JimmyG1970 Jun 26 @ 10:14pm 
Dummy me read a lower comment and figured out the 24 question. Duh!:steamhappy:
JimmyG1970 Jun 26 @ 10:12pm 
Wait Valyrians who inbred receive a penalty? That to me is messed up because it seems to come down heavy on science and less on magic and fantasy. Your mod does admirable job of trying to bring that gap with common sense.

Sorry to ask maybe obvious questions but if a pure V blood targaryen marries another pure V blood, do they get penalties? If they marry were to marry a person with more V blood than themselves? Say a half V blood marries a full V blood...is this result 24? I understand the why behind what you are doing and it's commendable. For me, it's akin to using real science to explain the Force in Star Wars (midichlorians). While it worked in some instances, it's now up in the air because apparently Sabine Wren can connect to the Force. That's explained away by two things, low midichlorian count and that everyone, no matter how many M's they have can connect to the Force with ummm...practice I guess.
JimmyG1970 Jun 26 @ 10:12pm 
Read the above comment first then this.

What this means for me I guess, is that it has to do with Valyrian Blood Magic and the nature of the Dragons themselves. Sheepstealer is tamed by Nettles with what Grand Maester Martin strongly infered was simple behavior modification. Feed me, I begin to like to you and become a dog. Or in the words of Sigmund Freud about penis envy and cigars, "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar".
James Jun 17 @ 6:33am 
I'm going to be an annoying nerd lol. In ASOAIF, it has only been the Volantene who are mentioned to STILL be of pure Valyrian blood. To be specific, they are governed by various pure blood Valyrian families that can trace their roots back to old Valyria (soldiers and low noblemen ala TWOIAF). The Targaryens stopped being pure blooded the moment they intermarried with the Velaryons, which is noted to have been done various times PRIOR to the conquest as is evidenced by Aegon I's mother (a velaryon) who in turn has a Targaryen parent herself. However, pure valyrian blood means stuff all in relation to taming a dragon as the Volatnese are not descended from Valyrian "dragonblood".
TLDR: The only pure blood Valyrian's are a specific sect of the Volantene. The Targaryens whilst not being pure blooded are still dragon blooded. Being a pure blooded Valyrian doesn't allow you to tame dragons, only dragon blood can.
ReoHays Jun 10 @ 9:51pm 
I just got out of the game and she was cheating. Also I moved the load order and now I see the Quarter-Man stat now and they have the blood at game start now. They didn't before. Thanks for the fast response. I just started over. It took many starts to get a decent Counsel and have a decent wife with my stats ok. But he was stuck on 7 military and 20 prowess every start, so I guess that is hard coded for him.

@ReoHays
Hi, I didn't quite understand your message. If Parent A has the 16/32 trait and the other has 32/32, the child will have 24/32.
If your queen has no traits, and you have the 16/32 trait, and your child has the 4/32 trait, she's probably cheating on you with someone who has the 8/32 trait.
I don't know if I answered your question, sorry.
ReoHays Jun 10 @ 5:53pm 
Question. Once you hit 16/32 your kids can never be 24/32? Say 100% and 16/32 have a child, why is the child 4/32? You skipped 8/32. Using the queen who never was "parents" She is pure and any one born after is 4/32? at least in my play through.

Between research, testing, also at one point I added traits (there were originally "only" 16 Valyrian blood traits) so I had to modify a large part of what I had already done. I would say 2-3 weeks (about 15-20% of the total time)

Could you turn the delete dragons rule into a seperate mod? I'd be interested in that but not in the rest.

This mod is broken for me. When I click on viserys my game crashes. Can someone please fix that issue.
baptoun  [author] May 30 @ 7:31pm 
@spencer2brown
Thank you so much for your comment!!

It's not currently planned at all.
The first reason is that Volantis, outside of the LoV mod, isn't in the game.
I don't think so for Lys. I'm not even sure Lys is "finished" in the game. Second, it would require a lot of work to add more files to manage.
Currently, my mod supports about 10 history files (1 file = 1 list of characters based on their region, e.g., the inhabitants of the Reach are in the same file), and as soon as CK3 GOT gets a few updates, I have to check each file and update it. And I don't want to add another file.

For now, I want to invest in other projects for my mod, like adding flavor to other things. I'm currently working on a "non-canon" project (which will be deactivated in the game rules). Or later add elements related to Valyrian culture itself.

Sorry about that :((
And thanks again for your comment!!
spencer2brown May 28 @ 8:04pm 
Have you thought about adding Valyrian blood traits to the Lyseni, Hartarlari, Tyroshi, and Volentene cultures? Maybe 18/32 and 12/32 depending on whether a character is noble or smallfolk for the Lyseni. 8/32 for all the Hartarlari and Tyroshi, and divide the Volentenes by class like the Lyseni. Maybe 16/32 for the Old Blood nobles to match the Essosi Valyrians, and 8/32 for minor Volentene nobles. I really enjoy your work and it brings a lot of flavor to the game. Thank you!
hedop May 27 @ 10:59am 
Ahh okay thank you for clarifying. Well there was a small hotfix today or yesterday I think and AGOT just had one out today as well. So that's why I was asking thank you for the clarification @baptoun
Ilijas May 27 @ 6:37am 
@hedop Is it intended for Celtigars, Scales and all others to be High Valyrian?
baptoun  [author] May 27 @ 4:30am 
@hedop
I don't know what fix you're talking about, but in any case my mod still works haha ​​:))
Generally, my mod remains compatible even after CK3 updates.
The only thing that could make it incompatible is if CK3 AGOT significantly modifies the game's story files (which manage historical characters), which is why I try to update it regularly :))
hedop May 27 @ 4:09am 
Does it still work or does it need an update aftter the last hotfix?
baptoun  [author] May 26 @ 10:32am

I think too
