In play
Forgiving: diplomacy rises by 2, intrigue falls by 2, learning rises by 1, prisoner opinion rises by 15, minority vassal opinion rises by 15, opinion of forgiving characters rises by 10, and opinion of characters with an opposite trait falls by 10. Forgiving helps with prisoners and minority vassals. Intrigue is the skill it spends. Vengeful is the opposite.
How to get Forgiving
- Gain: Forgiving appears in childhood events beside Wrathful and Fickle, or Trusting and Patient. A Forgiving guardian raises the odds. If your adult heir has Vengeful, the Family focus event A Flaw of Character lets you coach them out of it and gives them Forgiving instead. If your faith counts Vengeful as a sin, the pilgrimage event with a local guru and the Mendicant Mystics tradition event A Mystic's Wrath can swap it for Forgiving.
- Remove or lose: Prison stress (Mental Break: A Grasp on Power) can replace Forgiving with Vengeful.
