Backstories for Vanilla Expanded Factions

Woah, I can't wait to try this cool scenario included with Vanilla Expanded Factions - Medieval! I can roleplay an exiled Lord and his noble knights. Wait... Why are they all tribals? This sucks! And those knights from the invading faction?! They're tribals too?!

Many, if not most, wont be aware that Vanilla Factions Expanded Medieval actually has some custom medieval backstories, which sadly no-one will see, due to them requiring a "no-longer available on Steam, and broken if you get it on GitHub" mod called [RF] Editable Backstories and Names 1.1 to be active, for the patches to apply and the backstories available. Finding and activating the mod gives you wacky adult backstories, such as game developer and intergalactic pilot (hence the broken part). Additionally, there's several fitting backstories already in Rimworld that would be great for the Medieval Faction features, but go unused due to how the mod was coded (for justifiable reasons)

This mod takes the medieval themed backstories from Rimworld, the custom ones from VFE Medieval, and the wonderful ones made by RainbeauFlambe for the long-dead EBN mod, and makes them apply to the Medieval Scenario and Faction from VFE Medieval.

It also sets, hopefully, some vanilla backstories to spawn for the medieval faction

You NEED to use Vanilla Factions Expanded - Medieval for this to work. I want to add/restrict backstories for the other VFE mods too, so that they can be more fun to play. please leave some suggestions below. Eventually I will update it so you can run it without requiring VFE:Medieval, when I add stuff for the other factions.

Doesn't work for you? Post a comment and I'll try to help. I'm not an experienced modder...

Q: Does this require HumanoidAlienRaces?
A: No. Vanilla Rimworld now lets you add your own backstories

Q: Chewy, this seems like other people's work you've just repackaged. What gives bro?
A: I guess you're right, however since RainbeauFlambe's mod is long dead and doesnt work, I've taken what I've needed and included it here, with credit! The Vanilla Faction Expanded - Medieval backstories are straight up unavailable, plus this mod needs it to work anyway, so I figure it's fine?

Seriously tho, I will take this mod down if it shouldn't actually be up.

Q: Wtf, this does the same thing as x mod...
A: Please let me know so I can subscribe to that, I looked around but couldn't find anything

Q: Wow, you're great Chewy! I am creator of x mod, can I implement your mod in to mine?!
A: Maybe? Let me know what your mod is first...

Q: Will you add backstories for Vikings faction and Settlers faction? And other factions?
A: I am planning to, yes. Let me know any suggestions you may have!

Q: Wow, the thumbnail is ugly and sucks!
A: Yeah it took me 2 minutes to make lol. If you can make a new, nice one, please help!

Thanks!
