# Princes of Darkness, "Night Court", Version 1.5.0, Change Log, February 8, 2022

Royal Court Integration:

- 121 Artifacts from the World of Darkness, Dark Ages Vampire and Vampire the Masquerade.
A list of all 121 artifacts available in the mod today at the
Princes of Darkness Mod Wiki: Artifacts :
https://github.com/PrincesOfDarknessMod/POD-for-CK3-Wiki/wiki/Artifacts

- Darker Courts: All royal court scenes adapted to a night time look:
- no sunlight
- extensive use of chandeliers, fireplaces, candelabras and floor lamps.
- Shadows intensified.

- Primogen Court Positions. A member of each clan can be appointed to the position of Primogen.
What constitutes aptitude varies by clan. A poor or terrible Primogen gives a malus, while
good and excellent primogen provide bonuses. Clans expect to have a Primogen, and will be displeased
if they do not have one. Each 5 years, a mood of the clan event will proc to give a
ruler where they stand in regards to clans and their representation.

- Ancient Cultures: Enochian, Punic, Old Egyptian and Coptic. Each of these cultures have languages.
Ghemalish is also an available language. Canon characters and Royal Courts will have such cultures and
languages as appropriate.

- Great Persons and their Inspirations
The Great Persons system has been reworked : If no player is eligible for a Great Person spawn, it's
now much more likely that a powerful, higher tier, AI will grab them, instead of a random one. If a
player is eligible for a Great Person spawn, but refuses it, the Great Person will end up embraced by
a nearby AI ruler instead of wandering off. If the player acquires a Great Person, there is now a
risk that a competitor will interfere, making the player having to deal with them. The Great Person
wiki page has been reformatted, now showing Great Persons per region and dates of spawn,
allowing for a better view of who will be available and when in your campaigns. Many great person
characters will spawn with an inspiration to create an artifact.

- Special Toreador Decision: Dazzling Grandeur
- Independent Ruler with Kingdom or Empire title
- All your available primogen court positions filled with primogen of at least good aptitude
- court Grandeur level of 10 (or 150000 prestige if you do not have the Royal Court DLC).
