OLD AGE
Sick of having 70 year old men and women running around as if they were healthy, energetic 20 year olds? Tired of having a series of kings live to the age of 80 as if they had modern healthcare and sanitation? Wondering why your 99 year old marshal is beating the crap out of boys old enough to be his great-great-grandsons?
Worry no more!
This mini-mod, which is part of my mod-in-development, VIET, ensures that older characters suffer from their advanced age. Characters over the age of 50 have an increasingly high chance of getting a new modifier which reduces their health, as well as their martial and intrigue ability (although it slightly raises their learning skill). Pretty much every character will get this modifier by their late 60s, but most will get it sometime in their late 50s to their early 60s. Certain traits will make the event fire sooner, others will make it fire a bit later (but virtually almost every character will get the event by the time they're 70 or so).
Ultimately, with reduced health, old characters will die off more quickly like they should, and you no longer have to worry about these crazy super-powered old folks.

To install, simply unzip the contents into your mod folder. This mod should be compatible with virtually every other CKII mod out there (a reason why I did this as a modifier and not a trait - adding it as a trait may cause some mild compatibility issues). Yes, it will work even complete overhauls or even other mods that add in other old age traits or modifiers (although I don't know why you'd play both of the mods at the same time then... but yes, you can do that if you really want!)
If any modders wish to use this in their mods, credit would be appreciated.
(As a side note, some of you may be wondering why I didn't make this a trait, like in some other mods: I figured that having old age as a modifier was less messier, and had the less potential for problems, than having it as a trait.)
