Interesting Fecund

Hello y'all. As far as the positive congenital traits in CK3 go, it seems like the fecund trait isn't that sought after or overly desirable. It near always takes a backseat to the beauty, intellect, and physique trait lines.

To me, it just seems like it doesn't really pose interesting enough benefits to players to use. I suppose if you're trying to have as many kids as possible, or perhaps are rapidly approaching your death/infertility without a viable heir, it has some value. However, some people view more kids as a downside due to partition inheritance. Also more often than not, you're not planning the eugenics of your offspring around the idea of a end-of-life succession crisis.

So, all this considered, I thought I'd try to spice this trait up to make it more desirable and interesting to interact with.

I have done this through the addition of inheritance chance modifiers to the trait, and the rest of the vanilla stats of the trait remain. These modifiers are as follows:

+15% chance of inheriting random positive congenital traits
+15% chance of inheriting random negative congenital traits
+15% chance of reinforcing congenital traits

I hope that this makes the fecund trait more appealing to you, and that you enjoy using it from now on. Thank you.
