Is there any hidden tyranny modifier? Or can my ruler pick up tyranny when imprisoning his relatives if no warning messages were shown?
Here is my situation: I suddenly found out that my ruler has -40 tyranny opinion modifier on everyone.
This is weird since I'm role playing as a very peaceful and kind ruler, so I would never do anything that warns me about picking up tyranny. I also have no tyranny in my traits:
My only evil deed I can think of is imprisonment of mine 2 brothers who were excommunicated by my father. I am sure however that there was no warning message.
Any ideas? How can I get rid of this opinion modifier? My father was murdering people left and right, imprisoned 8 or 10 family members, but still did not have such an opinion malus.

40 tyranny is what you normally get for imprisoning someone without a reason. But excommunication counts as a valid reason and you would have been warned.
Have you executed any prisoners? Maybe ones from another realm? I've heard of a bug where tyranny that should be applied in another realm is instead applied in your own realm.
There is also the possibility you imprisoned a wrong person. That happened to me the other day. I got a message that so-and-so is plotting murder and I could imprison him, but I messed up and tried to imprison my spymaster instead.

Yes, I think I executed a couple of prisoners from Venice. It showed me warning about lower opinion of venetian nobility, but I'm positive there was no warning about tyranny. So it must be a bug then

One more small question.
My powerful vassal (King of Sicily) started a war with Venice for Bari, almost crushed them, took all holdings in Bari, but was then completely destroyed by big rebellion, which allowed Venice to take back some land (not Bari holdings though) and win a few battles. Since it was a stalemate, I offered to join his war and started to take venetian land and chase down their armies. However, warscore is declining, since for some reason game thinks that Venice still holds Bari!
I am pretty sure this is a bug. Any workaround?

How do I check warscore for a war I'm not involved in? Umayyad's are defending against a bunch of people and I'm waiting for it to be done so I can Usurp one of their titles (cannot usurp title when target is at war). So I'd just like to see how long of a wait I have.
nm - I found it in the Ledger.

Ok since I found that out - the Umayyad's are perplexingly holding steady vs. a ton of enemies. How can I help get that war over sooner? I can't "join war" with any of the people who are attacking the Umayyad's, and I can't declare war on my own since I'm in a truce. Any ideas would be great!
If you can DoW an ally of the Umayyads they'll be forced to join. Truces could be an issue with that plan too though.
Also, you can see war score of someone's current wars in their char screen as well, just mouse over the applicable war.

Oooookay, so I just had the Demon Spawn event pop for one of my bastard daughters. She's illegitimate via a courtier, part of her mother's dynasty, and nowhere near in line for the throne: the closest after my second legitimate kid is a nephew in Byzantium (and even if all my kids were legitimate, she's number seven). When the event popped, I took the option to show her to the church because I needed the piety; she's currently betrothed to the heir of one of my dukes.
I'm not interested in having to have a dynast reclaim Britannia from a demon spawn, so based on the above information, is it safe to leave her alive or should I have her killed?

I think you should try and play Demon Spawn. It's helluva ride, if you've haven't done so.
Yeah, except in order to do that, I'd need to legitimize her. Right now she's part of Mercia's House Iceling because I for some reason didn't get the event to select her legitimacy level (possibly because I took the "love her and leave her" option).
Guys how to have 2 version of CK 2? Cause it's quite annoying to rollback when playing other mods and when I try just to copy the folder of CK 2 the DLC won't activate when playing the different version from steam, example I copied the 2.5.2 version to another location then rollback to 2.4.5 on Steam after that I tried to launch CK 2 on the 2.5.2 version I can't click on the DLC tab.
Is it just me or is there no longer an observatory event chain for scholarship?
The events never fire for me.

Check under the Intrigue tab. Should be a decision to build the observatory.

It definitely is a bug. You shouldn't be able to join your vassal's wars at all. If the game let you, that is probably the root cause of the weirdness. Sadly, I can't think of any workaround.
Ok since I found that out - the Umayyad's are perplexingly holding steady vs. a ton of enemies. How can I help get that war over sooner? I can't "join war" with any of the people who are attacking the Umayyad's, and I can't declare war on my own since I'm in a truce. Any ideas would be great!
Does your council refuse to let you break the truce or are you worried about the penalties? Because if it's the latter, you may want to go ahead and break truce anyway. The opinion penalty with Muslims is largely irrelevant for a Christian and while you do lose half your prestige, you don't really need more than 2000, since that's enough to max out the prestige opinion bonus with feudal and republican characters. Any more than that has no effect. So if you have 4K or more prestige, you can generally afford to break truce with people of other religions.
Also note that truces are between characters, not between titles. If the Umayyad sultan dies or if you die yourself that will end the truce. You probably won't be able to get rulers from other religious groups assassinated (opinion penalty towards you will be too large), but the trick can work nicely if you ever have a truce with soemone of your own religion. And if you're lucky the Umayyad sultan might die in battle.
You could also try to form an alliance with whoever started the war against the Umayyads (or if they started it, the person they attacked) and hope you get automatically dragged into the fighting.
Demon spawns get evens where they have a random chance to kill older siblings, legitemate siblings (if the demon spawn is a bastard), brothers of any age (if the demon spawn is female), and siblings who are born in the purple (if the demon spawn isn't). If the even fires there is a 50% chance the sibling dies, a 25% chance they survive unharmed, and a 25% chance they become Infirm.
Demon spawn also get events that allow them to recover from Infirm, Incapable, Blind, Maimed, and Eunuch.
If you wish to do so you should be able to legitemize her by right clicking her portrait and selecting "Legitemize". This will upset your wife (-40 opinion), but should make her of your own dynasty and eligible for inheritance.
You essentially have two options:
1. Legitemize her and let her take the throne. And don't forget to break her betrothal.
2. Kill her and do it fast. Thanks to her high Intrigue she'll be difficult to plot against as well as difficult to imprison though, so good luck.
Personally I'd go for the first route because the demon spawn even is very rare and hard to get, so you might not get another opportunity to play as one anytime soon.
So here's the situation :
I'm currently played as Louis II Karling of Italy 867, snapping Sicily by doing invite and push claim thingy, and then going to conquer Bavaria to finally form the Italian Empire.
What's stupid of me is that I'm not patient enough to wait for Legalism level 3, change into Late Feudal Administration and then go for Primo from Agnatic Gavelkind, while still a King of Italy. I'm now old, stressed and chance of living the 10 years to change the succesion law in the Empire is literally slim. My only son, Karl have 4 kids, all GIRLS which frustate me, and worse, he is now depressed as his wife cheated on him and gave birth to baby boy with the Prince-Bishop of Trent
So I checked the inheritance, and found that King of East Francia is second in inheritance, followed by his 1,2 and his third sons, and then after that King of West Francia as the last pretender to the throne. Which means if my son died which is totally possible atm, he's close to become Kaiser of HRE.
I don't really worried about the inheritance as its still goes to the member of dynasty, but out of curiosity, how does the game determine who's going to inherit outside the direct descendant of the current ruler (son, daughter and grandsons) in Agnatic Gavelkind? Because King of East Francia was descended from my uncle, Ludwig (his grandson), and King of West Francia was descended from my cousin, Louis of Aquitane (his sons) which means he's direct blood to my other uncle too, Charles the Bald.
