Who freak are the Barstark and Harstark Are They Cadet Branch of Stark?

Yes, came with More Bloodlines Submod, so non-canon. They both are very minor and are actively trying to die out. I'm keeping my eye on them for now, just in case.

While I'm polishing some things in the Lys-Myr-Tyrosh Chapter, I might as well show you one of my favourite AI shenanigans from this game.

The Westerlands: Minor Events: The Boars Most Fierce
The Boars Most Fierce
Speaking of the Westerlands at the end of the 350s, one simply cannot ignore the boars of Crakehall.Their current patriarch, Lord Rollam the White Boar, supposedly takes his colours from his mysterious mother, a Lyseni his father met on his years-long sabbatical to Lys that he undertook after the death of his first proper Lannister wife.
White Boar’s older sister, lady Mylana, took after her father not only in colour, but in her approach to marriage as well.
She was briefly married to a proper Ser Bertram of House Brax, late Lord Robert of Hornvale’s second son (and the Queen of Trader Town’s nephew, but more on her later). Lady Mylana bore Ser Bertram a son, bid her husband farewell as he went on to play knight in The Maiden’s Men sellsword company, arranged his funeral mere seven years later and promptly ran away with a mad sellsword captain who also died shortly after. Lady Mylana then married her late second husband’s master-at-arms and bore that man four other sons.
After a certain recent development in the sellsword company in question, Lady Mylana’s youngest son was sent to Crakehall for safekeeping. He was then married to his kin and sent to the Casterly Rock to be tutored by his half-aunt.
The recent development of course being a total takeover of the company by the Crakehall family.
Lady Mylena’s second son Quenton is the current captain of the company. He is also married to his kinswoman like his youngest brother.
In order to consolidate his power and strengthen his position, Captain Quenton surrounded himself with his loyal brothers.
Ser Richard, the third son, is serving as his right hand man. He is married to Idara, daughter of one late captain of the hedgeknight company.
Lady Mylena’s fourth son Gwayne recently came back from his voyage to the fledgling colonies in the Valyrian peninsula and brought along a pretty silverhead by the name of Bhaenyra.
Even the eldest one is with the company now. He too is a boar in all but name and it is widely known that he was most eager to leave the court of his hated Brax cousin.
His daughter Edrina closed the circle when she married her close kinsman Antario, White Boar’s son and heir.

The Vale of Arryn: Minor Events in the Vale: In the Red Fort Strong as Stone
In the Red Fort Strong as Stone
The noble Lord Horton of Redfort died in his bed in the year 302AC at the age of four-and-sixty.
His only daughter, lady Ursula, was married to Ser Nestor of House Royce, commander of the Gates of the Moon until her death at the age of two-and-fifty. Ser Nestor never remarried, whether because of his devotion to his late wife or due to his rumoured lack of interest in women in general (although the pair did manage to have four healthy children together, a fact that heavily contradicts that particular gossip).
Lord Horton’s youngest son, Ser Mychel, was married twice. His first wife, lady Marsella of House Waynwood, died in delirium, her brain literally rotten away. Ser Mychel then married a very young widow, lady Eldera of House Blunt, whose first husband died at the age of just six-and-ten. Lady Eldera was forced to abandon her infant lordling son, but after Ser Mychel’s death she came right back and does not leave her son’s side ever since.
Ser Mychel’s youngest daughter, lady Teora, was married to Ser Uther of House Donniger, master of Clifston castle, until his death in the year 349AC at the age of seven-and-forty. She never remarried and is still in mourning.
Ser Mychel’s older daughter, lady Theona, unfortunately met her end at the executioner’s block. Her husband, Ser Kennard of House Grafton, recently brought himself a new, very young wife from Lorath. The girl appears to be utterly insane, but it would seem that it does not bother Ser Kennard in the slightest.
Ser Mychel’s only son Horton was married to lady Tarina of House Doggett until his death from a brothel disease. Lady Tarina did not remarry and remains at the Redfort.
The pair’s children are also rather unfortunate. The daughter Sylana was born a simpleton and despite her kind and friendly nature remains unmarried, although she still dreams about her “future” husband. Ser Jorence, the son, married quite late to a lowborn woman twice him younger only to lose her to a tumour just a couple of years into their marriage. Ser Jorence is still in mourning.
Lord Horton’s third son, Ser Jon, defied his father’s wishes and married a lowborn woman. The pair retreated to the castle of Daynsfort in hopes to be out of sight and out of mind. But it was not meant to be. After Lord Horton’s death his much less noble son accused lady Barba of conspiracy and burned her at the stake. Ser Jon never remarried, but two years after his wife’s execution he defied his family once more when he brought home a base-born son and a Crown signed petition declaring the boy his legitimate heir.
The son, Ser Leowyn, was definitely his father’s blood as he went the exact same road and married a lowborn.
His and lady Parena’s only son, Ser Benedict, is the current heir apparent to the castle of Daynsfort. He is married to lady Karella Stone, a bastard of House Bywater.
Ser Jon’s daughters by his unfortunate wife went very different roads.
Lady Gwenna, the younger, married Lord Elwood of House Meadows, Lord of Grassy Vale, as his second wife and the mother of his only son and successor.
Lady Isabel, the older, married Ser Eustace, a lowborn knight and ran away with him to Lorath where he died from a tumour. She never remarried and is currently residing at the court of Lady Minelna of Lorath.
The pair’s only daughter that survived to adulthood died at the age of just twenty years. Her lorathi bastard-born husband remarried to another bastard-born from Lorath.
Lord Horton’s second son, Ser Creighton, married a woman ten years his senior and already a widow with four kids from her previous marriage. They relocated to the castle of Daynsquarry, their wedding gift. Lady Mariya of House Darry managed to bear her husband a daughter before Ser Creighton’s untimely death.
Lady Elyra, the daughter, was married to ser Arys, a lowborn knight. They both were taken by the same ravenous illness.
Their younger daughter, Lady Allyne, was married to Lord Parmen of Ruthermont as his second wife and died just a year after him despite their very impressive age gap. It is unclear whether her madness was caused by his demise or by a shameful illness she was rumoured to have had contracted.
Oddly enough, her older sister, Lady Marsella, is married to Lord Waltyr, Lord Parmen’s son from his first marriage. She is also a second wife.
Lady Elyra’s son, Ser Arnel, succeeded his grandsire as master of Daynsquarry. He is married to lady Fiona of House Waynwood. Unfortunately their marriage remains childless.
After noble Lord Horton’s death his firstborn son Lord Jasper succeeded him as the Lord of Redfort. He was married to Lady Alyssa of House Royce. She never remarried after his death in the year 329AC and finally followed her beloved husband in the year 349AC, twenty lonely years after his death.
Their oldest daughter is on her third husband at the moment. Her first one died young, second was taken in his prime, and her third one has a reputation of a kinslayer for the unfortunate death of his kinsman at the tourney.
The middle daughter, Lady Arwen, was married to the gallant Lord Yohn of House Royce, Lord of Runestone. After his own unfortunate death in a duel Lady Arwen did not remarry and came back to her childhood home of Redfort.
The youngest daughter, Lady Mena, is married to Lord Jon of House Lynderly, Lord of Snakewood.
Lord Jasper’s only son is the current Lord Harrold of Redfort. He is married to Lady Sanora of House Donniger who came into this marriage a widow with two sons. Lady Sanora tries to hide from the family drama and spends her days in a haze of strong spirits.
The pairs only daughter, lady Jessamyn, was also very keen on leaving and is happily married to Ser Bennifer of House Tully, an expected successor to the command of the Bloody Gate.
The drama in question stirs from the middle of the family. Ser Quarl, the second son, is technically married to Lady Shierle of House Drox from the Westerlands. But while the westerwoman lives in the Vale, Ser Quarl ran away all the way to the West and now serves at the court of Lord Symond of Ashemark.
The reason is named Arlon Stone, son of Lady Shierle and an unknown father. The boy’s time of birth left little room for doubt that he was not Ser Quarl’s as he was away from home for over a year hunting a mountain clans’ raiding party (or rather accompanying the knights that actually did the hunting and trying to stay out of their way due to his failing physique). Although Lady Shierle never named the father of her bastard, Ser Quarl is adamant that it is his own father, Lord Harrold. He also strongly suspects that the other two children born in their marriage are also not his, although he does not have any proof of that and they are considered his legitimate progeny.
Ser Gawen the heir, a kind and honourable soul, tried to reconcile his family, but to no avail. He now tires to distance himself from the whole ordeal, spending most of his time with his wife, Lady Demerei of House Arryn, acting as her willpower in her attempt at a diet.

I love your attention to detail, one of the reasons I love this mod is the vast amount of stories it creates, look forward to the next one.

Totally agree, the way this game and especially this mod makes for an endless supply of adventure and drama is unparalleled. I think that's the main reason I'm hooked on the game for so many years and still play it extensively.
I've seen you mentioning the images in a comment to your AAR. With minor families there will be mostly just screens and less of those extra pictures unfortunately, but I am planning on returning to my other AAR that's in a hiatus, and there I will be using A LOT of pictures, I already have a substantial stack of them just waiting their moment.

The Vale of Arryn: Minor Events in the Vale: The Roof is on Fire
The Roof is on Fire
The imperious Lord Gerold of House Grafton, Lord of Gulltown, died in the year 326AC at the age of two-and-sixty.
His older daughter, lady Rylene, was married to Ser Donnel of House Waynwood. After her untimely death at the age of one-and-thirty, Ser Donned remarried. His second wife is now his widow.
Lord Gerold’s younger daughter, lady Zhoe, was married to Ser Eon of House Hunter, master of Hunter’s Point castle, until his death at the age of thirty. She then eloped with a captain of the sellsword company, a man of a fearsome reputation as a cannibal. Although those allegations are vastly exaggerated and Captain Garth never actually ate any human despite his enormous appetite. Curiously enough, all those gargantuan amounts of food were never able to actually show themselves on Captain Garth’s body as it remained frail throughout his life. Captain Garth was deeply affected by the slander and died in great sadness at the age of one-and-sixty. His beloved wife, lady Zhoe, followed him a year later.
Lord Gerold’s youngest son, soft-hearted Ser Gyles, became a hopeless drunkard after the mysterious death of his first wife, lady Merra of House Lynderly, despite the fact that they were almost incompatible together. He eventually remarried to an equally honourable lady Yorena, but the damage was already done and his addiction to the bottle took him to the grave. His widow mourned him for three years and finally wasted away in great sorrow.
Lady Yolanda, Ser Gyles’ daughter by his first wife, is married to Ser Kermit of House Vance, a man she has absolutely nothing in common with. He eventually ran away from her (and her disease) and is serving with the Second Sons.
Ser Gyles’ younger daughter, lady Alynne, is technically married to Ser Hoster of House Ryger, but Ser Hoster was driven away from his own home by his own brother, Lord Roger, and is currently serving at the court of Lord of Moreland. Lord Roger then proceeded to father a son by his brother’s wife and promptly shunned her from his company thereafter. The boy, Merrett, is promised to become a consort to young lady Arwaya of House Pemford, the current heir of Rushmoor, and resides with her future wife's court.
Lord Gerold’s middle son, Ser Edric, was married to lady Nella of House Wythers until his death from a tumour at the age of eight-and-thirty. Lady Nella never remarried and is still in mourning.
The pair only son, Ser Edmind, is his father’s spitting image. He is married to lady Wynafrey of House Mallister, daughter of the late Black Lady Minisa of the Seagard. The marriage is still childless.
Lord Gerold’s firstborn son Randyll succeeded him as Lord of Gulltown. He became known as Lord Randyll the Munificent for his charitable and honourable nature. Lord Randyll was married thrice. His first wife, Lady Cercei of House Waynwood. She unfortunately let herself be seduced by a lowborn knight, contracted a brothel disease and died at the age of eight-and-twenty when both her mind and her body finally gave up. Lord Randyll’s second wife was already twice a widow herself. She died peacefully in her sleep at the age of six-and-fifty. Lord Randyll’s last wife and widow is Lady Alora Stone, a bastard-born daughter of a Night’s Watch brother from House Follard.
Lord Randyll’s only daughter, lady Kerelle, is married to Ser Hugo of House Blackwood, heir to the Muddy Hall castle.
Lord Randyll’s youngest son Rodrik is married to lady Ermesande Stone, a bastard of House Waxley.
Lord Randyll’s third son, Ser Gerold, was first married to lady Sharra of House Melcolm, the mother of his two children. Rather simple woman, she did not recognise the telltale signs of a doomed dog and went to pet it, an act of kindness that cost her her life. Ser Gerold's second wife is Lady Syrella of House Bracken. They do not have any kids yet.
Ser Gerold’s daughter, Lady Jennis, is married to a fresh prince of Andalos, newly-emerged Kind Baelor’s second son. The pair resides in the rapidly-growing new colony of Ghoyan Drohe on the border between the new kingdom of Andalos and the principality of Pentos.
Ser Gerold’s son Waltyr is married much more humbly, to lady Jorelle of the northern House Locke. A simple man much like his mother, he is also suffering from an inflammation of his brain and is rarely seen in a sensible state of mind. Fortunately he is timid and kind-hearted so his fits are never violent, but rather just very sad.
Lord Randyll’s second son, Ser Kennard, was first married to lady Theona of House Redford, but after her execution he rather quickly remarried to a very young lorathi girl he met in the Gulltown port. She claims descent from an Archon of Lorath, but she is also utterly insane, and Ser Kennard does not really seem that interested in her family or personality anyway.
Both of his daughters are married into prominent houses in the Riverlands.
Ser Kennard’s only son Randyll was unfortunately killed by his own kinsman in a duel for honour. His wife, princess Sarya of Andalos, went back to her homeland and became a septa like her grandmother.
The pair’s daughter, Lady Janyce, is married to Ser Morton of House Shett, Lord of Gull Tower.
Her brother, Ser Gerold, is married to lady Karella of House Saul.
The current Lord of Gulltown is Lord Creighton the Mystic. He is married to Lady Elyra of House Arryn (of the Gulltown branch).
Their oldest daughter, lady Ronella, was married to Lord Humfrey of House Melcolm, Lord of Old Anchor, until her death at the age of just eight-and-twenty. Lord Humfrey remarried to lady Yorena, who looks uncomfortably similar to his previous wife. He also has a bastard born in between his marriages.
Lord Creighton’s second daughter, lady Lanalla, is married to Ser Damon of House Royce, the most promising second son of Ser Nestor Royce, Lord Commander of The Gates of the Moon.
Lord Creighton’s third daughter, lady Janyce, is married to Ser Jon of House Mudd.
Lord Creighton’s youngest son, Ser Jaime, is married to lady Cassana of House Warfield.
His brother, Ser Adrian, master of Gull Hall, was married to lady Deana of House Shett (of Gulltown branch), mistress of Gulltown Keep. After Ser Adrian’s mysterious death at the age of just eight-and-twenty, poor lady Deana had unfortunately lost her mind in grieving for her husband and does not really understand or recognise who she is dealing with and is easily being led to believe that her husband is with her at the moment, a confusion that led to the birth of her bastard daughter Rhea.
The pair’s only child, Ser Waymar, succeeded his father as the master of Gull Hall. He also stands to inherit his mother castle. Ser Waymar is married to a beautiful silver-haired daughter of a mayor of Hull, a town on the Driftmark island.
Ser Lewyn is the current heir of Gulltown. He is married to Lady Qyrene of House Royce.
Their oldest son Benedict is recently married to another Lady Qyrene, this one from House Arryn, daughter of Lord Malador of The Vale and Lady Myriame of The North.

Despite the Vale supposedly being at ''peace'' it doesnt look that way with the amount of unfortunate deaths in the area, could rename this chapter ''a series of unfortunae events.''

The saddest thing is that it's actually consistent throughout the realm. It would seem that the long period of stability is rather boring so noble lords and ladies took the matter into their own hands and started to "entertain" themselves with murder, tourneys and family dramas.
There faster way discover all Robert bastard create those houses you made for them.

I just opened the Characters tab and searched with "realm" and "adult: no" parameters for kids with Baratheon looks and usually strong and/or tall traits and then took them as wards until event triggered. But I had to use the console twice because it did actually bug out for me as is warned about on the More Bloodlines forum thread
(The event for uncovering them works, but not perfectly and doesn't always trigger - if you want it to fire for a particular character console "more_bloodlines.800 <charid>" for the relevant character, they all have the Baratheon gfx so you should be able to spot them - they are dotted around the seven kingdoms)

I've found a way to speed the prep stage up to take no more than hour and a half, and things been rather quite and steady at both my school and my work, so I might be able to put up posts a little bit faster for some time. So here come The Sisters!
