SP - Quests Plot-quest to claim the throne

Users who are viewing this thread

Issue: To become the ruler of an existing faction is tiresome. When the current ruler dies, you MIGHT be elected...

So here I suggest a "Player-cheat!" for once!

Solution: Player can start a quest to claim the throne for him/herself! The quest requires social and military power, skillfull characcter and player and useull NPC's!
I could propose "Civil War" but others have tried and at the moment it would be a far too huge change to even grasp and affect all areas of the game so this quest would simply change leaderclan to player -clan if successfull.

When requirements are met, you can start this semi-main quest from the clan page.

Requirements:
  • Vassal
  • At least 5 other vassal clans(>=7 clans in the faction in total)
  • Clan tier 4
  • Character with good values in Cunning or Vigor/Control
Stage 1: Get support. 3 other clans must support your task.
You can talk with clanmembers to learn what you need to do get their support.
Potential things they might require are
  • Certain relation
  • A marriage(Any marriage ends up in their favour - your member moves to them!)
  • A bribe
  • .... etc
Stage 2: Forge the claim needed. This is where companions comes into the picture. This takes Cunning and Intelligence. Selected companion(s) are sent away to deal with it. 1 or more. The more the faster. But they will work for a while, at least a year or so or up to 4 years if they lack proper skill. They will ask for your help, that slows down progress if you don't comply(Speak to X within 30 days, Deliver 10 silk/jewelry to X in Sargot....). in the meanwhile you will loose relation with other clans not supporting you in stage 1.

Stage 3: You have claim. You have the strenght. Now wou just need to do it! Here you need the player and chrachter skill. Choose how you will strip the ruler their crown, Vigor or Cunning. Vigor is simply a duel like with banditlairs but you face the best warrior in the rulerclan followed by the ruler in a sequence. Cunning is a "Prisonbreak" but you instead break in to where the ruler is and takes him prisoner. ETC?

Success: Stage 3 completed.
Concequence: The ruler submitts, you are the ruler of the faction. The previous ruler´s clan becomes a vassal. You loose 150 relation with prevoius ruler clan

Failure: Your charachter dies while quest is active.
Concequence: The heir can restart the quest but all progress is lost.
