Description:
AGOT – More Personality Depth

A submod for A Game of Thrones.

CK3’s personality traits never tell you how much of a trait someone has. A "Wrathful" kind aunt and a "Wrathful" Mountain that Rides share the same icon and the same opinion penalty. This mod fixes that — every personality trait now has three levels (Mild, Normal, Intense) that scale a character’s reputation, behavior, and how Westeros reacts to them.

THIS IS A STANDALONE VERSION OF THE MOD, you don’t need the vanilla version in your playset.

Vanilla version available here


Three Levels Per Trait

The 36 vanilla personality traits AND the 3 AGOT-added traits (Authoritative, Rude, Inquisitive) all get graded display names:

  • Wrathful → Quick-Tempered / Wrathful / Furious
  • Authoritative → Commanding / Authoritative / Domineering
  • Cruel → Cruel / Sadistic / Sociopathic
  • Inquisitive → Curious-Minded / Inquisitive / Probing
  • Total: 39 leveled traits.

Each level also has its own narrative description shown on the character sheet, in the style of a Westerosi maester’s chronicle. A Quick-Tempered lord has "a sharp tongue and a sharper memory." A Furious one’s "rage is the stuff of whispered legend."


Opinion Overhaul

The biggest mechanical change: opinion modifiers scale per level. A Mild trait barely registers at court, while an Intense one shapes every interaction.

Example — Authoritative’s opinion of liege:

  • Commanding (L1): -15
  • Authoritative (L2): -30
  • Domineering (L3): -45

A Domineering Frey can plausibly start a vassal revolt all on his own; a Commanding one merely earns side-eyes at small council.


Childhood-Locked Design

A character’s level on each trait is decided when the trait is acquired (mostly during childhood). Influences include culture (e.g. ironborn ethos rewarding wrath), faith (Faith of the Seven virtues vs sins, R’hllor-specific values, Old Gods, etc.), guardian and parent traits, the "Influence Ward’s Personality" interaction (BP2), and the wet nurse’s active task.

A wrathful boy raised in an ironborn pirate court is far likelier to grow into a Furious sea reaver than the same boy raised by a learned Septa.


Adult Progression — Signature Events

Levels can rise during adulthood through dramatic life events:

  • Combat — winning shifts Brave up; losing shifts Craven up
  • Title gain — accumulating titles shifts Ambitious up
  • Faith conversion — repeated conversions shift Cynical up
  • Successful murder schemes — shift Deceitful and Callous up
  • Stress coping — Irritable / Drunkard / Flagellant events reinforce Wrathful / Gluttonous / Zealous
  • Pilgrimage success — shifts Zealous up

When a shift fires, the character can embrace the change or resist it (medium stress, but the change still happens). The AI weighs the choice based on context and self-awareness.


AI Archetype Tightening

The "Economic Archetype" tooltip line (Warlike / Cautious / Builder / Pious Builder) now requires Normal-level (L2+) traits to count toward the categorization. A Quick-Tempered lord with one Aspiring streak isn’t suddenly a Warlike Conqueror — that label is reserved for the Furious and the Driven.


Required & Recommended Mods

Required:

Recommended (synergizes well — load this submod after them):

  • aGoT: Mayham — provides the AGOT balance baseline this submod’s opinion magnitudes are tuned around. Without it, opinion modifiers still scale per level but some culture-specific bonuses go inert.


Compatibility

  • Overrides common/traits/00_traits.txt and 00_agot_traits.txt (39 personality traits)
  • Overrides common/court_positions/tasks/00_wet_nurse_tasks.txt
  • Overrides common/scripted_effects/00_pilgrimage_effects.txt
  • Overrides 4 AI personality scripted_triggers
  • Overrides gui/window_character.gui and gui/shared/cooltip.gui
  • Overrides events/dlc/bp2/bp2_character_interaction_events.txt

Incompatible with other mods that rework personality traits or override the same AGOT files.
