I know this may be a rather sensitive topic, but since I have studied something about suicide, I thought I would add modifiers to the original event.
Suicide was even more dramatic in the Middle Ages. Unless it was motivated by honor or some other "legitimate" cause, the body would be abused and the estates might be confiscated. But it was quite uncommon among the nobility, who had other outlets.
1) The biggest question is: can I put several events after the type = random effect?
2) Balance. So, for a male courtier, unmarried, over 70, with low prestige (<-200), depressed, schizofrenic, ill, reckless, selfish and skeptical, the MTTH would end up with 0.125 at about 300 months. Conversely, a stressed married female ruler, wise, generous and zealous, and with high prestige (think Queen Elisabeth II
) would have a 6.5, or 15,500 months MTTH.
Does anyone know how to go from MTTH to probability, approximately? I don't know if these numbers are balanced; I'd like to have at least a good 25% probability for the first one and next to zero for the second.
Any help from experience modders would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
