I was perusing through the traits as I was designing my ruler, and I came across traits that are named after the major Houses in the series. Does anyone know the purpose of those traits and how it affects the game if chosen for my ruler?

Choosing one of those traits will fire an event a few days after game start making you one of those Houses. Picking the House Stark trait will turn you into a Stark.

edit: I'm really curious as to what happens if you pick every trait :p

I think I did it once with, like, House Stark and House Targaryen to see what would happen. It just popped up with one, changing me to that family, and then it popped up with the second and changed it to that one, making the first one redundant :p

To clarify further, it will give you the proper name and coat of arms, and if your house has any special properties/events, it will give you those as well. For instance, Targyarens and Blackfyres have the "divine blood" modifier that lets them be all incesty (and gives them the chance to go mad because of it), various houses can get strong claims to reclaim their traditional homelands (e.g. the Baratheons can get a claim on the Stormlands if it's held by a non-Baratheon), you can get a CB to reclaim your ancestral sword if it's held by someone else, etc.

If you just used the Ruler Designer to give yourself the dynasty name Targyaren or Stark, you wouldn't get any of that.
 
Actually I'm glad the conversation is mentioning this at the moment. I tried making someone from House Blackfyre using Ruler Designer and the trait for Blackfyre, and this was during the time of Eddard and Robert etc, but I seem to remember it crashed whenever I started the game, and I tried this three or four times. I don't know if the game just doesn't like a dead family suddenly being alive again, but it would be really cool.
 
I think the latest patch just isn't working well with the mod at the moment. Games have been crashing when I started a game as well.

Its been working perfectly fine for me. Well apart from the Septon thing I mentioned earlier, but since I had a succession I now have one.
 
Don't mind me. Not a Bear.

Is this something I can download somewhere? Please say yes.
 
It's already in the mod. Just need to enable the "Not a Bear" trait for Ruler Designer.
 
Still having trouble with paying the iron price for valyrian steel swords (but I am have an AMAZING time playing as an Ironborn bastard of Harren the Black)... Whenever I invade Winterfell I do get a pop-up saying I have taken Ice, but it NEVER appears in my traits and stays with the Starks. Is this just a bug, or am I doing something wrong? :/
 
Hey loving the mod and have being for a while but I've noticed with the current mod my children always seem to end up with poor traits ie incompetent commander or naive appeaser even if there guardians are skilled commander or charismatic negotiator. Has anybody else noticed this or is it just me?

Learning stat affects the outcome of an education trait, not the guardian.
 
As part of the Parley at Storm's End
Stannis offered Renly the chance to be his heir until he had a son. This to me suggests that should change Dragonstone, and the Iron Throne (if he wins) law to Agnatic succession and then upon either Stannis' death it should change back to Agnatic-Cognatic.
Just suggesting that if you guys have time to do it that would be great as it would just further that alternative.

Entirely +1.

Though, if Renly died first (and either was childless or had only daughter), it could result in... Aegon auto-inheriting? I don't know.

I don't know what exactly stopped you from using "Employ new courtier" functionality for employing holy man ;P and then making him your court septon. It's just you didn't have anyone eligible, as you didn't have any barony level sept or septon on court. 'Employ new courtier' decision let you invite one.
