Something I would like to see in one of the first patches is a change in the UI that shows us character portraits when plots are involved. Unless I go around memorizing the names of everyone in the realm its often hard to tell who is being target or can be targeted by a certain plot. Its simple if its your liege lord or your wife, but oftentimes it gets very confusing, especially when different people have similar names.

When my spymaster alerts me that he has discovered a plot to kill someone, the message shows the character icon for my spymaster, and the plotter in question, so you can easily see who you're talking about. What's missing is the portrait of the person who is being targeted. Are they important? Do I want to stop the plot, or would it be nice to have them dead?

We need an easier way to view plot targets without having to search for the name.

The Intrigue menu has a tab for all known plots in it's bottom half, which shows the target.

But yes, I agree, it would be very practical for the target to be in the message as well.

That helps for found plots, but much more importantly I'd like portraits for the possible plots that we can choose.

Cosigning this petition. Who the seven hells is Ida von Cham and *why* do I want to plot against her 9 times out of ten?
