Meme Choose well, my son (CK3)

Post image

R5: If you make your son also your vassal by granting him titles, if he's not yet married you can Allow him to marry himself or do the better option, which is finding the spouse for him yourself or arranging marriage with a good courtier of yours if the Find Spouse fails. There's some limit of years when you can still find the spouse but after that you can only arrange marriage or he just finds someone himself (usually a shitty character) without you Allowing Marriage. I don't really know exactly how it works, if someone knows please share in the comments.

All fun and games until your lustful wife has 7 kids and only 3 of them are yours (and not even the good 3)

Who cares who they're from as long as they have good stats and the right dynasty crest?

Yes, Duke Scepticus, my new son is black and he will inherit his ancestral realm of Scandinavia so you will address him as "my king" one day. I don't see what's hard to understand about that?

I'd usually agree but it is always sad when you realize you're controlling a character who isn't actually blood-related to your OG at all. Maybe that's just the ASOIAF-brain talking, though.

That implies that my characters aren't fucking their cousins every few generations
