□ For the trait gain system some bloodlines will fire automatically once a year to give all the bloodline bearers the trait - now all Mormonts, Crakehalls, Umbers get strong, all Umbers get tall, and all courtesans are fair, I might tweak this. I've implemented system that gives certain bloodlines events that gain certain traits associated with their house (so certain houses tend towards bravery, others will get strong, others will get mystic and sadistic bloodlines - Boltons, Maegor, Gregor clegane - get torturer etc), I've added some new animal companions as part of the trait gain system, so if you’re a descendant of the Marsh Kings you could get your very own Lizard Lion! Other animal gains I have introduced are Bears for the Mormonts, Crows for the Blackwoods (and the subsidiary Black Aly and Bloodraven Bloodlines), Lions for the Baneforts, Cranes for house Crane, Vultures for the Blackmonts, wolves and direwolves for the Starks, bats for certain Harrenhal bloodlines etc. I have also left the existing bloodlines claims intact but removed all other bonuses, to make the vanilla bloodlines essentially claims bloodlines and my new bloodlines effect bloodlines. I have tried to make sure that these bloodline benefits give an edge but don’t break the balance. The benefits to the bloodline are now more than just an opinion and prestige boost, giving a range of benefits from morale boosts, to diplomacy boosts. So I made this mod which currently adds over 400 new bloodlines, some of these are secondary bloodlines for the main houses – yes this does mean that say the Starks and Gardeners start off with 4 bloodlines, but the thing is they aren’t a normal house, they are the embodiment of an entire region – their prestige should match. I get that the devs did this to limit bloat for bloodlines and to prevent certain houses from being OP, but it is a little lore breaking when murdering a few dozen people in a lifetime gets you the same recognition as say the 8,000 year rule of the Starks, Lannisters or Durrandons. Vanilla AGOT is brilliant and the devs have done an amazing job on it, but the number of historical bloodlines is rather limited when all is said and done.
