High Valyrian Courtiers

[blackninja9939]

Does anybody here (such as the venerable Ols who seems to have experimented extensively!) understand the education 'heritage' focus limitations?

It means the child can adopt the educator's culture and/or religion in the mod it is limited so that a child cannot convert to or from westerosi/essosi/high valyrian or any of the mythical creature type cultures either

Thanks for taking the time to answer! I can understand the limit for mythical creature cultures why is there a limit for westerosi/essosi Valyrian though?

Because you do not suddenly become and old and pretty much dead culture, the westerosi and essoi ones are just watered down versions of high valyrian culture but based on location. However, they still have that original high valyrian blood very thinly running through them.

Ah so in game terms when anyone is 'Valyrian' that implies descent from other Valyrians rather than simply being culturally Valyrian? That would explain why a few centuries of Targs on the Iron Throne didn't culturally convert half of Westeros, thanks for the clarification.

Yeah pretty much, mainly because the white hair and purple eyes are a couple of the genetic feature that makes them stand out compared to normal people. The only exception we have to this rule is when we convert lowborns to westerosi or essoi valyrian so they remain at the court of their high valyrian liege without being culled like the rest of them and that is then covneiantly excused with oh they must be some bastard of a bastard of some third cousin of some other bastard etc lol
