Crusader Kings 3 Education Traits
Crusader Kings 3 education traits are the skills your character can have at various game stages. Some are inherited, while others are gained as you grow up. Your educational traits can increase your character’s overall strength when they reach adulthood. Other traits are acquired through events and battles. There are also congenital traits that are inherited from your parents. The chances of your character inheriting a trait will increase with inbreeding, and some traits will show up at birth.
In Crusader Kings 3, you can assign someone to watch your child’s education. You can also make them a guardian. The guardian can be your own child or someone else. If you choose a guardian, the children will become wards of that character. You’ll also receive an opinion bonus if they are your guardian.
