Stellaris Dev Diary #299 - Civics, Origins, and Traditions

If you mean this guy I'm also intrigued. He must be one of the renowned leaders given he has unique art. I'm guessing a synth of some kind. Maybe even Gray given that the old special leaders have been rolled into this update?

Will Democratic Crusaders personality now be tied to having Crusader Spirit civic?

No, but they will have higher chance to get it

Eladrin, in the Dev Diary stream "Talking Galactic Paragons" from last week, Statecraft had an additional Finisher effect: Technology Gained: Galactic Administration. Was that stream build part of a previous build, or is it part of the current plan?

Assuming Galactic Administration is still the third civic unlock tech, that would have some pretty significant early game strategy implications for the value of unity/tradition rushing.

Everything you saw in the stream is how it will be on the release Sorry for the confusion here!

Devs, it would be really cool if you could confirm if new Civics which get modded in will be able to have their own custom Council Position come with them, complete with the special rules and bespoke names.

I presume this will be possible, but confirmation of it would be awesome!

Well, you need to mod in the council position, but it is fairly easy to do.
Every civic will look for a council position, and if the council position is scripted in the proper file - then it will work like any other civic/position in the game.
