How does childbirth fit into this? Also, any chance you could add in miscarriages (and buff fertility to conpensate?)?

I figured. I was commenting on someone else's argument. And it is a useful word. No qualms here.
Cool beans.
You should maybe also consider a couple extra events for flavor:
• Sponsoring a physician's work/patronage - Pay gold, get some prestige when and if the physician makes the next Great Medical Text. The chances would be higher if the physician is really smart, maybe could have character events for the physician himself.
• Translated texts - Characters with high learning and territory in the "Muslim world" (Southern Spain and the Middle East) get the opportunity to translate some ancient texts. No idea on game effect. Maybe even have it trigger at the physician's level for something like a successful Reconquista.
• Good and Bad Medical Trends - Some 'trend' picks up steam in your lands, some new technique, and maybe it's good, maybe it's bad, but it runs it's course for a few decades before the status quo takes over. Examples could be lots of use of nightshade or violas for pain (Regimina Santitatis, 1200s) or maybe a 'drop' in herbalism on account of a strong church moralism that medicine wouldn't cure pain but only remediation of sin would (De miseria humanae conditionis by Pope Innocent III, late 1200s). Result could be a minor regional increase/decrease in efficacy.
Eh, just spitballing. But there's a lot more opportunity than just disease events and find a doctor events (Not saying that's all you've done, btw.)

Dead characters don't really matter much, live ones do.
By the way, stillbirths are a part of the game, you just have to enable them in the defines. Stillbirth also doesn't actually create a kid, so thats nice.

Can we add some STDs to curb some of the characters using the seduction focus? Right now there isn't much of a health risk for that lifestyle besides Lover's Pox which does nothing. I want my horny vassals to learn the hard way, because shaking your fists at them when they try to bang your daughter isn't doing it for me

I've always wanted more flavor events in the game, and this fits the bill exactly!
Also props to the devs for adding in stuff about Muslim doctors and physicians.

If that's the theme, we might finally get more efficient ways to torture and punish people.
(hopefully without ruining performance *cough*byzantines*cough*)

Wait, you mean evaluating if you can castrate and/or blind everyone in the world isn't normal behaviour?

I wouldn't mind that. Especially when i capture Raiders. they're a pain in the butt to deal with; and getting Special Events to torture them, then execute would be great!

Soo, this means that the bubonic plague will now have more events and flavor to it? Right, RIGHT?!
Edit: Or diseases in general.

You're thinking of stillbirths. I mean ending the pregnancy before it ever gets that far along.
I hope this DLC will try to reflect the fact that in CK2's time period the muslim medical knowledge were superiour to European. Would be cool to see!
By the way, I looked up some bizzare medieval medicines. Here is how BBC History Extra describes how gout could have been treated:

Oh right aye that would make sense. Not long awake when I replied.
Maybe finally Maesters in AGOT mod won't be useless!
@Darkrenown Will there be some way to quarantine your country during Bubonic Plague, like Poland and Milan did historically?

My understanding from looking at the event text is that, while being lustful makes you easier to seduce, so do being kind and honest, and being deceitful makes you less likely to fall for words of love, though I think it makes you more likely to fall for lewd suggestions.
