Crusader kings 2 But I have Zero Stats?? 0 Stat Man Challenge

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to effectively the opposite of our wonderful 100 Stat Man adventure! Presenting King Steve of Wales also known as 0 Stat Man.
He is just an ordinary bloke except all of his stats are set to 0 so realistically he is the worst possible ruler you can have in Crusader Kings 2 (CK2). So yes this one is going to be a huge challenge!

A brief nitpicky note: AposTATE = a heretic; a person who follows a religion other than your own AposTLE = generally considered a servant, a follower, or loyal faithful member. Basically, they're the opposite, so if you burn apostles, you burn the loyalist faithful. love the content spiff

Welsh naming schemes are rather simple. ap means of so for example Dave ap James means Dave of James, the child follows the fathers name, there's a tad bit more to it than that, but that's all you need to know. Also Welsh is a phonetic language. so if you learn the Welsh Alphabet then you can essentially pronounce any Welsh word you see.

Would a pacifist run be possible in this game? if so.. that could be fun to see. Also, this and 100 Stat man is great. Keep up the great entertainment.

[@Xelights]

You can "go tall" where you invest in upgrading your current land instead of conquering land. But you can't go full pacifist because there is always the threat of being attacked or rebelled against. I suppose you could immediately concede every war?

[@majormajorasic]

@@Xelights Technically you could go full pacifist since you can have 0% rebellion chance and get everyone to like you enough to not declare war onto you.

[@the_Kutonarch]

There's still adventurers and raiders that'll still need to be murdered to death, so no full pacifist run.

[@majormajorasic]

@@the_Kutonarch Just pay off whatever ransom they ask for, no need to fight them.

[@ZanathKariashi]

You can do a defensive wars only pacifist run (but just as a errata to that, Independence CB isn't allowed, even though it's technically a defensive war according to the game. You can use an independence faction request but if your liege refuses to accept it you have to immediately surrender). But a full pacifist run is basically impossible except as a Patrician, since eventually someone is gonna want your stuff and attack you over it and you not have a means of avoiding it, and a full pacifist would have to immediately surrender. However it's very possible to play as a pacifist to who avoids conflict except when forced upon them.

Spiffing, i'm tired of you making the same mistake over and over. I don't think you are doing it as a joke. The word you are looking for is "Apostate". You keep saying "Apostle" Apostle -a vigorous and pioneering advocate or supporter of a particular policy, idea, or cause. Apostate -a person who renounces a religious or political belief or principle. They are opposites.

To anyone who dares to try, the negative stat man challenge, accomplish something of note (I would recommend going for becoming an emperor) with a charachter like this; -Naive appeaser as education trait -Drunkard -Lunatic -Disfigured -One-handed -One-legged -Malnourished -Clubfooted -Harelip -Hunchback -Imbecile -Lisp -Dwarf -Ugly -Weak -Frail -Dull -Uncouth -Gluttonous -Slothful -Craven -Shy -Inbred -Blinded -Homosexual and/or left-handed (For the negative church opinion) -Kinslayer Give yourself the nahuatl culture (As it is a special culture that normally appears only with the aztec invasion, you will get the "foreigner" opinion penalization with every charachter except your children, if you manage to get those) -Set your character religion as hellenist, no leader starts with that religion except for a few greek courtiers that usually get converted to orthodox early on (This could be also aztec religion, but I put the hellenist one because it will be less useful, wich is kinda the point) -You may increase health or in the character builder to give yourself a better chance of not dying randomly at 20, so you can suffer for longer, you can also add diseases like leper or great pox at your liking to worsen your stats even more For extra difficulty, you can start as a count rather than a king/Duke, start as a tribal/nomad lord, or both, perhaps you would like 796 brittish isles, as they are both tribal and catholic (The catholics will hate you a bit more than the other religions, so it gives a bit of extra difficulty -You aren't allowed to increase stats other than health in the character builder, and you aren't allowed to get any trait outside of the list above except diseases or negative traits -Feel completely free to change the game rules as you like, you can disable the aztecs, mongols and central asian invasions, leave them at default, perhaps set them on random and have an early catastrophe to take advantage of... anyways, if you were able to accomplish anything, let me know
