Why are mayors getting married and having children?

[DukeDayve]

Makes no sense. Their children don't even inherit the city when they die, so it's just clogging up the game with pointless characters and slowing it down. Unless I'm missing something?

Perhaps this is a question you should ask on the main CK2 forums?

This doesn't happen in CK2, it happens in CK2+.

I would like to know this as well. Having so many lowborn pagan priests and mayors having kids makes the game chug way earlier than it does in vanilla

I like it.

I like it generally when i need someone to take over a baron or a lot of land i look at heirs to city that way i get a free guy without prestige or piety lost and not have to worry about making a republic

I think you're wrong about that. Just checked a vanilla save, in fact. There's nothing in the mod which marries off mayors--whatever happens is just as in vanilla.

Realism? also yeah I think I saw that in vanilla too

Because mayors are human beings and don't take vows of chastity.
