Okay, we'll start with John the Blind:

Code:
462610 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Johann[/COLOR]" #John the Blind
	dynasty=61
	martial=8
	diplomacy=5
	intrigue=8
	stewardship=7
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="brave"
	add_trait="chaste"
	add_trait="gregarious"
	add_trait="tough_soldier"
	father=462611
	mother=462620
	1296.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]8.10[/COLOR] = {
		birth="1296.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]8.10[/COLOR]"
	}
	1310.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]9[/COLOR].2 = {
		add_spouse=462855
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1335.1.9[/COLOR] = {
		add_spouse=455657
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1337.1.1 = {
		give_nickname = nick_the_blind
		add_trait="maimed"
		add_trait="crusader"
	}[/COLOR]
	1346.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]8.26[/COLOR] = {
		death="1346.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]8.26[/COLOR]"
	}
}

EDIT: In 1.08 the 'blinded' trait was added to this character, so that's fine. Keep it.

A general issue with John's family is that they have Bohemian names but German culture. This may cause trouble with regnal numbers not linking properly, so I'd suggest giving them German names for consistency's sake.

Wikipedia states that 'John lost his eyesight at age 39 or 40 from ophthalmia in 1336, while crusading in Lithuania. A treatment by the famous physician Guy de Chauliac had no positive effects' so 1337 seems like it would be fine.

The main problem here is that John's nickname and 'maimed' trait will never come into play because they're set to happen in 1339, but the last start date is of course 1337. Ideally he should be blind (see this thread) but as Paradox have gone with 'maimed' then I'll use that here. I've also given him the 'crusader' trait because he was blinded during one of the Baltic Crusades, which he took part in.

Next, his children:

Code:
462600 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Jutte[/COLOR]"
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]# AKA: Bonne[/COLOR]
	female=yes
	dynasty=61
	martial=5
	diplomacy=6
	intrigue=4
	stewardship=4
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="honest"
	add_trait="envious"
	add_trait="ill"
	add_trait="underhanded_rogue"
	father=462610
	mother=462855
	1315.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]5.20[/COLOR] = {
		birth="1315.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]5.20[/COLOR]"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1349.9.11[/COLOR] = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1349.9.11[/COLOR]"
	}
}

She is married to the future John II of France in 1332, which is correct.

Code:
462612 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Margarete[/COLOR]"
	female=yes
	dynasty=61
	martial=6
	diplomacy=8
	intrigue=8
	stewardship=8
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="flamboyant_schemer"
	father=462610
	mother=462855
	1313.1.9 = {
		birth="1313.1.9"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1341[/COLOR].1.9 = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1341[/COLOR].1.9"
	}
}

She is married to the future Henry XIV of Bavaria in 1329, which is correct.

Code:
462614 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Wenzel[/COLOR]"
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]# AKA: Karl[/COLOR]
	dynasty=61
	martial=7
	diplomacy=9
	intrigue=9
	stewardship=9
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="proud"
	add_trait="duelist"
	add_trait="temperate"
	add_trait="just"
	add_trait="grey_eminence"
	father=462610
	mother=462855
	1316.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]5.14[/COLOR] = {
		birth="1316.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]5.14[/COLOR]"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1328[/COLOR].1.2 = {
		add_spouse = 455537
	}
	1378.11.29 = {
		death="1378.11.29"
	}
}

Charles was born with a Bohemian name -- Wenceslaus (Wenzel) -- and didn't adopt his regnal name Charles (Karl) until he became Emperor.

For some reason, Charles' daughter with Blanche of Valois is Frankish and of her dynasty. She ought to be German and a de Luxembourg:

Code:
455538 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Margarete[/COLOR]"
	female=yes
	dynasty=[COLOR="#FF8C00"]61[/COLOR]
	martial=5
	diplomacy=6
	intrigue=5
	stewardship=6
	religion="catholic"
	culture="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]german[/COLOR]"
	father=462614
	mother=455537
	1335.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]5.24[/COLOR] = {
		birth="1335.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]5.24[/COLOR]"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1349.9.2[/COLOR] = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1349.9.2[/COLOR]"
	}
}

Code:
462616 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Johann Heinrich[/COLOR]"
	dynasty=61
	martial=7
	diplomacy=7
	intrigue=7
	stewardship=6
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="thrifty_clerk"
	father=462610
	mother=462855
	1322.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]2.12[/COLOR] = {
		birth="1322.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]2.12[/COLOR]"
	}
	1330.[COLOR="#FF8C00"]9.16[/COLOR] = {
		add_spouse=462710
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1375.11.12[/COLOR] = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1375.11.12[/COLOR]"
	}
}

John's second son, John Henry of Moravia.

Code:
462617 = {
	name="Anna"
	female=yes
	dynasty=61
	martial=8
	diplomacy=6
	intrigue=4
	stewardship=4
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="thrifty_clerk"
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]add_trait="twin"[/COLOR]
	father=462610
	mother=462855
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1323.3.27[/COLOR] = {
		birth="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1323.3.27[/COLOR]"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1338.9.3[/COLOR] = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1338.9.3[/COLOR]"
	}
}

Code:
462618 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Elisabeth[/COLOR]"
	female=yes
	dynasty=61
	martial=8
	diplomacy=6
	intrigue=8
	stewardship=8
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="cynical"
	add_trait="thrifty_clerk"
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]add_trait="twin"[/COLOR]
	father=462610
	mother=462855
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1323.3.27[/COLOR] = {
		birth="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1323.3.27[/COLOR]"
	}
	13[COLOR="#FF8C00"]24[/COLOR].1.2 = {
		death="13[COLOR="#FF8C00"]24[/COLOR].1.2"
	}
}

Anne and Elizabeth were twins. Elizabeth died as an infant; Anne went on to marry Otto the Merry but both died before any children were born.

Code:
462035 = {
	name="Otto"
	dynasty=51
	martial=5
	diplomacy=5
	intrigue=4
	stewardship=4
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="ill"
	add_trait="diligent"
	add_trait="tough_soldier"
	father=462023
	mother=462713
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1301.7.23[/COLOR] = {
		birth="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1301.7.23[/COLOR]"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1325.5.15[/COLOR] = {
		add_spouse=462036
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1335.2.16 = {
		give_nickname = nick_the_merry
		add_spouse=462617
	}[/COLOR]
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1339.2.17[/COLOR] = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1339.2.17[/COLOR]"
	}
}

Finally, this character exists:

Code:
462619 = {
	name="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]Nikolaus[/COLOR]"
	dynasty=61
	martial=6
	diplomacy=4
	intrigue=8
	stewardship=8
	religion="catholic"
	culture="german"
	add_trait="bastard"
	add_trait="thrifty_clerk"
	father=462610
	[COLOR="#FF0000"]mother=455657[/COLOR]
	132[COLOR="#FF8C00"]2[/COLOR].1.2 = {
		birth="132[COLOR="#FF8C00"]2[/COLOR].1.2"
	}
	[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1358.7.30[/COLOR] = {
		death="[COLOR="#FF8C00"]1358.7.30[/COLOR]"
	}
}

The name would suggest he represents John's youngest legitimate son, Wenceslaus of Bohemia. He wasn't born until February 1337, however, and seems to be a bastard. I think that means he's probably been mixed up with John's older illegitimate son, Nicholas of Luxembourg. In that case, I think it's best to edit him as I have above so as to represent that person.

Aren't I good to you, Paradox? Hopefully there are no bugs. ;)

EDIT: Also, the name Karloman exists in the German name list. The correct spelling is Karlmann and should be linked as such:

Carloman_Carloman (Frankish)
Karlmann_Carloman (German)
Karloman_Carloman (Bohemnian)
Kálmán_Carloman (Magyar)

Similarly, see corrections for the German name Lothar here.

Aww, I was going to post the same thing, but never got too it, everything was written down waiting to be finalized. All those changes are identical to mine too so it can't be wrong at least. :)

EDIT

The twins Anna and Elisabeth was born in 27 March 1323. You may want to change that.

http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/BOHEMIA.htm#_Toc278782581

EDIT 2

Also Johann the Blind didn't marry his second wife until December 1304 according the the wikipage you might have been referring to. My sources says it was contracted Dec 1304, but it actually happened in 9 Jan 1335.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_of_Bohemia#Family_and_children
http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/BOHEMIA.htm#_Toc278782581 - Same source as above.

Take a look now. Your changes should be implemented.
