{{Version|1.0}}

A character refers to any person, historical or generated, that is represented personally in the game. Every single character is an individual, living entity that will act individually and has the potential to change history. Characters can be either Noble or Lowborn and Landed or Unlanded.
* '''Noble''' characters are members of a Dynasty.
* '''Lowborn''' characters are not members of a dynasty. If they are Landed with a Republic or Theocracy title, they will remain Lowborn. If they are Landed with any other title, they will become Noble and found a Dynasty.
* '''Landed''' characters own at least one Holding.
* '''Unlanded''' characters do not own any Holding.

== 年龄 ==
A character is considered a child if they are below 16 years and an adult once they reach 16 years. A character can die of old age after reaching 60 years. Each starting character will have a number of [[Lifestyle]] Perks unlocked based on their age.

== 领地 ==
The Domain is the collection of all Holdings a Ruler owns personally. Each Ruler has a '''Domain Limit''' that determines from how many Holdings can they collect Taxes and Levies. Once the Domain Limit is reached, newly controlled Holdings will not provide any Taxes and Levies.

== 性取向 ==
A character's Sexual Orientation determines towards characters of what gender will they gain Attraction Opinion and can form Lover relations with. It is decided when the character is around 10 years old and and cannot be changed. AI characters will never try to form a relation with characters that doesn't match their Sexual Orientation. Both the initial distribution of Sexual Orientation and the chance for children to gain a certain Sexual Orientation is determined by the Sexuality Distribution game rule.

If the child is played by a player there is a 20% chance that the player will get to pick the gender preference.

== 好感度 ==
Each character has an Opinion of every other character. The Opinion the player character holds influences the success rate of certain actions that target another character. The Opinion of AI characters also determines their behavior towards other characters.

If a character dies, their Primary Heir will temporarily inherit 25% of the positive Opinion with all characters who has positive opinion of them and 50% of the negative Opinion with all characters who has negative opinion of them.

=== 牵绊 ===
Attraction is an Opinion modifier that can only be held towards characters one's sexual preference allows. Male characters above 65 years and female character above 50 years are not affected by Attraction.

=== 关系 ===
When certain requirements are met two characters can have one of 3 types of relation, each one having 3 levels. Relations have a great impact on how two characters act towards each other.
* Childhood relations can only be held between two child character and might evolve into their corresponding adulthood relations when the characters reach adulthood
* Adulthood relations can be gained and lost as a result of events
* Lifelong relations can only be obtained towards characters with an existing adulthood relation and each character can have only one of each lifelong relation
