Who do you want to be in Crusader Kings II?

NEW YORK, March 30th, 2011 – The past is littered with the names of fallen monarchs, mad kings and usurped rulers. Ignominy is their legacy. Now is the time to create history’s greatest ruler in your own image as Paradox Interactive have today announced a brand new DLC for their hit strategy game Crusader Kings II allowing you to create and customize the most loved or most feared king or queen the world has ever known!

Who do you want to be today in Crusader Kings II? It is the question that every player faces; still finding that perfect character to play is always the challenge. You may have found the perfect place but well the man who has it just isn’t quite right. A stat is a little too low, that trait is a little annoying, he could really do with an heir, the less said about the nose the better, and why does he have such a stupid name?
With the new Crusader Kings II: Ruler Designer DLC all these are in your hands. Customize your character your way. Tweak and change any aspect of the character or even create an all new character and dynasty to play with. Create your portrait, change the name and dynasty and even customize your coat of arms. Change traits and stats at will and decide the size of the immediate family. The game that lets you choose your goals will now let you choose your character.

Crusader Kings II: Ruler Designer DLC will be released on the 17th of April to a suggested retail price of 4,99 USD. The strategy/RPG Crusader Kings II is available via all major distribution platforms and selected retails outlets with a suggested retail price of $39.99.

To be honest, I'm far more curious about what the 1.5 patch (which we were told would release with the first DLC) will contain. Customizing a ruler doesn't interest me, but if the de facto borders finally become de jure after a period of time, I'll be happy.

Isnt there a DD about it in another topic?
 
4,99 USD = 4,99 euro's? That's how Pdox usually handles dollar-euro differences so will this be different this time around?
 
Just saw the trailer. Can we please add CK1 music in CK2? Thanks.

Go to your CKI music folder and copy all the music to your CKII music folder.
This can be done for any music. ( .mp3 , .ogg is all I know that works, but most others probably do also )

Back on topic: This looks like an amazing tool to have, especially for those who don't like having to dig through the files to create their character. The video makes it look impressively streamlined.

As an aside, do you need to add those tracks to the CK2 songs.txt file?

Back to the subject of DLC, I've definitely waned to have something like this Editor. For one, it'll shut up all of us nitpicky historian types who critique little details.

BTW, when are we getting those music DLCs?
 
Figures this would be announced right after I went and created my own character manually. However, I'll be buying it for the graphical customization for portraits and CoAs. Can't wait.
 
You guys should add provinces to the mix too. Let us use this DLC to edit specific provinces (holding names, buildings, starting technologies, etc) at the start of the game too.
 
If I use this DLC to turn the King of Leon into King Spongebob of House Squarepants, does the rest of the Jimena dynasty become renamed/join House Squarepants or does it break the dynastic links and turn the King of Leon into a entirely 'new' character?
