Hello boys and girls. This game never ceases to amaze me with the stories that play out when playing. But this case was special. I thought I would share the Story of the scariest NPC character I hve even met with you.Also note that I added some RP flare to the story to make it more enjoyable. But I assure you it happened and the story you are about to read is true.Enjoy and feel free to share your stories of NPC's that got so powerfull and out of control that they literally scared you.Chief Sarak of Ugra.I guess that is where our story begins.The father of three illegitimate sons born to the some unknown whore Chief Sarak fell in love with and vowed to keep secret from the Samoyed Tribe Settling in the County of Ugra in wetern Siberia.Samutu (the eldest) was executed in his father’s prison after plotting to kill his younger brother Pudak. The youngest of the three brothers was injured by an angry mob while he served his father by collecting taxes only to die later from the infected wound.Only one of those sons lived long enough to have children though. High Chief Pudak was able to unite enough lands to create a Duchy for the lost tribes of Samoyed followed by another…yes the star of the Samoyed tribe was rising fast.Of all the Sons of High Chief Pudak his least favorite was unfortunately his eldest and heir. Wayngachi or rather ‘that idiot’ as he was referred to by his father. Wayngachi was not the smartest nor the most wise when it came to finances. His talents in his father’s court where far outshined by his younger siblings. He had however carried his father’s lack of faith in his heart heavily and perhaps in his heart of hearts was determined to prove his heritage and blood to be true and pure.By the time High chief Wayngachi inherited his father’s lands though the legacy of the Sumoyed tribe was shattered when both Duchies created by High Chief Pudak were split between Wayngachi and his much more talented younger brother. His court and subjects have accused Chief Wayngachi of being a coward. (true he did everything below with the 'suspected coward' penalty).Determined and through sheer force and iron will Chief Wayngachi was not only able to reunite the shattered lands of the Samoyed tribe under his banner and bring both Duchies under his wing but add a Third Duchy to his titles. Despite the ridicule of all the naysayers in his court, Chief Wayngachi of the Samoyed tribe became King of Perm.Becoming a King is not as noble as one might think. King Wayngachi of Perm was no exception and had to spill blood of subjects and relatives alike to keep his Kingdom intact. While his brothers and sisters tried everything to tear the Kingdom apart to feed their own insatiable greed. King Waybgachi would look up to the sky at night’s wondering if his father could see him now. Wondering if his father would be proud of the golden crown he wore as King of Perm. Heavy must be the hand that rules.King Tolik inherited the Kingdom of Perm from King Wayngachi. A money wise and able king his vision was to build/improve his Kingdom. But alas his house and relatives had other ideas.King Tolik carried along the tradition handed down to him by his father the First King of Perm. trying hard to reform the Soumenosko religion his Father had little choice but to avoid tainting his family’s blood with the blood of the Tengri, Slavic and Norse. So much so that marriage within the House of Sarakid was limited to kin with rare exceptions.King Tolik carried on this tradition for the tenor of his long rule. This unfortunately led to infighting, betrayels, incest and rampant love/hate affairs within the House of Sarakid. A house of Vipers and Scorpions that never rested from tearing and shredding the Kingdom of Perm apart at every chance they got. The Kingdom of Perm was truly built and standing on a pit of the most venomous snakes and vipers. The Kingdom of Perm was sitting on the House of its ruler, The House of Sarakid,,,the house of vipers and snakes.In his older years King Tolik found himself alone, hated and most importantly; in constant threat of assassination from his own kin. He searched far and wide for someone to be loyal, someone that would keep everyone in his Kingdom at bay and allow him to rule and more importantly, allow him to stay alive.A saying as old as the tribe of Sumeyed. A saying passed on from generation to generation in the House of Sarakid. A saying that melted away from King Toriks mind at the sight of the young, petite and enchanting Yar.Yar was a young Mordvin girl only 16 when she was presented to King Tolid by the Cheiftess of the Tribes of Maris.Yar was the most beautiful and pure girl his eyes have ever seen in his 58 years. But more importantly Yar was trained from her childhood by the infamous spy master of the Tribes of Maris.So skilled was she in the dark arts that King Tolik knew that she was the answer to his prayers. He would keep her as his own concubine, allowing no other to touch her purest of pure beauty and elevating her from the life of a lonely lowborn orphan girl to the Life of the Kings Concubine and spy master.‘The Red Veil’ as she became known, Yar’s face was said to be so beautiful that King Tolik covered her face with a red veil so no one would be seduced by her beauty.The Red Veil was never more than two steps away from her Leige and legends grew around her as her voice was never heard in court. The house of Vipers that sat beneath the Royal Throne of the Kingdom of Perm was brought to its knees by a lowly 16 year old girl.was a saying that spread like wildfire throughout the Kingdom of Perm. It was also an omen of doom as it became an established truth that when the ‘Red Veil’ took two silent steps and Whispered into King Toliks ear…..someone was going to die.Yar, The King’s Concubine and Spy Master, The Kings ‘Red Veil’ subdued so many plots and threats that no two people throughout the kingdom of Perm were completely safe to whisper amongst themselves. The Red Veil made sure that any whispers throughout the kingdom were whispered into King Toliks ear every night. (She literally subdued easily more than 30 plots and counter killed killed more people than I could remember)As the years passed Yar’s power surpassed anyone in the Kingdom including the King himself. No Prince, no Duke and no Queen would fathom crossing the path of the Red Veil. The Red Veil became the power that kept the King of Perm alive. For all across the Kingdom it became fact that one simple whisper from her was enough to send ANYONE to the dungeons only to wake up the next morning to the sight of executioners Axe. She filled her Kings bed with moans and sigh's while filling the Kings dungeons with screams and tears.No one knows exactly how and when the Red Veil turned on her liege. All that is known is that she was loyal to King Tolik until the moment his Royal Carriage was showered with a storm of arrows. Why was never known.By the time King Torik’s Heir King Pavel ascended to the throne of the Kingdom of Perm. No one in the Kingdom of Perm including King Pavel himself doubted for one second that sitting on the thrown of the Kingdom meant sleeping on the bed of the Red Veil and keeping the Red Veil as Spy Master of the Kingdom of Perm. Her bed was meant only for the King of Perm, her whispers were the only thing keeping any King of Perm alive. The house of Vipers that was the royal blood line was by now so full of snakes and vipers that by having the Red Veil more than two steps away meant doom.And anyone that even seemed like a remote threat or aspiring replacement to the position of Spy Master seemed to magically die of some kind of disease or accident (I kid you not I could not replace her and jailing her was to risky as by this time her threat was so huge that even the chance of her running away to another court and plotting against me from there was enough to scare the living day lights out of me).King Pavel of Perm’s rule bestowed upon him the name King Pavel the wicked. It was not the wickedness of King Pavel though, by now the whole Kingdom of Perm was at the feet of a 23 year old Mordvin Girl. By now the Kingdom of perm truly belonged to the Red Veil.Deciding after five short and assasination and counter assasination filled years that King Pavel’s time has come the Red Veil was by now so potent a Spy Master that the chance to hear her reply to stop plotting against him was never reached.(I kid you not I was killed by her during the ‘she will reply to your request to stop backing the plot to kill you in 8 days’ window! In other words she didn’t even give me time to reply with a yes or no and her skill was so potent it took never more than a few days for her plot to succeed)King Milorad the Heir to the Kingdom of Perm was by now so terrified of the Red Veil that he had no choice but to make her his queen.(screw the prestige hit from marrying a lowborn at this point seeing her approval fall below 20 was enough to make me squirm. Maybe making her queen will keep her happy)Yar ‘The Red Veil’ graced three Kings in her bed and still only 27 years old she is the Only NPC I have ever seen in Crusader Kings that literally scares the shit out of me.She caused more grief and pain to my dynasty than any Kingdom could survive. The Kingdom of Perm was so weakened and fractured by her plotting and intrigue that by the time came to defend the kingdom from a foreign invasion I barely had a soldier left to defend the kingdom with. Alas even Yar could not save the Kingdom of Perm from an invading Army and the Title of King was lost from the house of Sarakid.This concubine turned Queen literally had the Whole Kingdom of Perm at her feet and literally held three Kings of the house of Surikid by the balls. Her plotting and scheming made no shortage of enemies for any King that by default not having her around was just as much a death wish as having her around was.Never had an NPC had so much power without an official title in any of my play throughs as she did. This girl is an absolute Praying Mantis chewing off the heads of three of my Kings and I dare not let her go as ruling in the Kingdom of Perm is now only done for as long as she desires.I hope you enjoyed my story and I will close it with a small picture of the Red Veil for you all to see. I really do not want to continue playing as since she became queen of Perm she has put away her red veil/shoal for a black shoal. I really don’t want to know what happens when she starts wearing black.Ladies and gentleman I present to you Yar, Concubine of three Kings, Queen of what was once the Kingdom of Perm AKA the Black (formely known as the Red) Veil.
