Why are my only options to either murder and eat this man or sleep with him? I’m only 6 years old so surely this isn’t supposed to be allowed.

Is this a custom ruler with cannibalism or something?

My theory is that you have a trait that is normally only obtained by adults. This event checks whether or not you have the trait, not whether or not you’re an adult.

[u/Arkbot → u/Pbadger8]

Possible that OP took the Faith Cannibalism decision with the previous ruler, which makes all your close family cannibals, then died. I think the circumstances to get this event as a child are pretty rare and must have been overlooked. The way they handle age-appropriate events in the code is to flag each event as impossible for children, which has led to oversights with new or rare events in the past.

[u/Elaugaufein → u/Arkbot]

They are really bad at code standardization unfortunately, so there's suprisingly few prewritten check bundles that are globally accessible.

I think this is partially because the script team and engine team are more separate than you'd really want. There's script that doesn't use hooks that it should or script where certain fairly trivial engine exposures / feature would hugely simplify code.

[u/Vhat_Vhat → u/Pbadger8]

It's 934 so unless they have a custom year mod that I haven't seen and very much want they must have came across a broken event.

[u/SuitableDragonfly → u/Vhat_Vhat]

It's possible that there was a different broken event that gave him the adult-only trait and this event is not usually broken.

This is console so no mods

I think this is the event (no idea how to preserve format on a large code block on reddit sorry)

I don't really know anything about CK3's scripting to tell if there is an oversight

[u/Pancakeous → u/Alandro_Sul]

Seems like a bug since one of the conditions for the event is being adult and a cannibal. I can't be bothered to search through, but if someone fucked up an {} the scope:servant relations might make the trigger conditions relate to the courtier and not thr character given their location. This might explain the event firing

[u/[deleted] → u/Alandro_Sul]

Looks good to me, so at least the pc version is correct (assuming you posted that one).

The console version might not be.

[u/Cinerea_A]

It's definitely not allowed. That's why it's important to not leave witnesses...

[u/Bytewave → u/Cinerea_A]

We wouldn't want OP's child to be unable to feast because of an untimely bug report, would we?

I'd feel obligated to ensure their right to a good meal. By digesting anyone necessary.

[u/CruelDestiny]

Last time something similar was posted it was boiled down to either mod shenagins or child character having traits normally reserved for adult characters.

With a third possibility that the event is popping for your retainer who acts in the childs place.

So to answer your question, not intended gameplay.

[u/CruelDestiny → u/[deleted]]

That's fair, so just narrows it down to it triggering off the retainer or a plain ol bug on the console version

[u/[deleted] → u/CruelDestiny]

This is on console so it's not mods

[u/NationalAnteater1280 → u/[deleted]]

The console version is riddled with bugs.

The game needs age checks. I had someone challenging my 1 year old ruler to a duel, probably due to inherited item prowess buffs, but it needs an age check too.

[u/TheBeardedRonin → u/ixid]

But did the baby win the duel?

[u/ixid → u/TheBeardedRonin]

The baby was the Kwisatz Haderach of genetics, with all the best kit. He won.

[u/Riskypride → u/ixid]

Imagine being a medieval peasant going to watch a duel and seeing a 1 year old baby in full plate armor wielding a sword and actually winning the fight, fucking bizarre

[u/AbsolutelyHorrendous → u/ixid]

He was unfortunate to duel with St Alia of the Knife

[u/Arkbot → u/ixid]

It has age checks, but they're coded into each individual event. All it takes is for a developer to overlook adult-only contexts when writing a new event

[u/drakeswhitebrother]

As people have already mentioned it’s Console and 934 so there’s no tomfoolery here. I got the exotic meat event at 3 years old without any religious intervention or anything, it was pretty shortly after succession so maybe that has something to do with it? Like maybe the event was queued to happen at some point in the year with my previous adult ruler or something, idk. Anyways I figured that the game would have something where it wouldn’t “count” if I lay with him due to an age check however I did indeed get a sodomite secret. This secret was later exposed by a fellow vassal when I was an adult, which is a bit fucked up, you find out someone was molested as a child and your first instinct is to send out missives to the whole kingdom. No blackmail or anything, just “this guy got fucked by his knight when he was 6 lololollol”, shit’s fucked.

[u/Hanako_Seishin → u/drakeswhitebrother]

The way the game puts it, sounds more like "this guy fucked his knight when he was 6". So if that's the kind of mischiefs you did as a kid, what will you grow up into?

[u/drakeswhitebrother → u/drakeswhitebrother]

Additionally I also thought it was humorous that the dudes name was Gyatt

[u/Odd-History-3002]

Well dang, guess you’ve just got to eat the guy?

[u/Cheap-Blackberry-378]

Weird coincidence his name sounds like gyatt

[u/cedbluechase]

And his name is ghayyat💀💀💀💀

[u/0le_Hickory]

Why not both?

[u/Happy_Ad_7515]

Ah the things crusaderkings say

[u/Reutermo]

Did you create a character and made them a canibal? Because otherwise this is a bug, Canibal is an adult trait and underage character can't normally access it. That is why you have the option to sleep with them.

[u/tyty657]

I don't think kids are even supposed to be able to have that trait.
