I know a lot of players don't stick to a monotone cultural getup when they play, but a lot of players probably do what I do; try to stick to culturally appropriate armours and weapons for the culture I am playing. I take this mentality with me to smithing as well, where I try to smith and use weapons that suit my characters culture appropriately. But I have some exceptions; I often use animal pelts for shoulder armour when playing as a Vlandian or Imperial. If I play as a Sturgian I may use some Khuzait armour. And if I play as a mercenary or Lord for a different cultural faction than my character is from, I may use a mix of regional armours and use my own culture for a weapon. Example; I played a Nord corsair mercenary for the Empire. I used gilded scale Imperial armour with gilded scale shoulderguards, golden pirate gauntlets and boots, and a brass Aserai helmet with a Nord one handed sword with gilded pummel and handguard. Anyone else give themselves similar cultural restrict...
So I was going through a thread that I had posted a year ago about Jarl Bulba and someone commented about permadeath for Lords.
I though wouldn't that be totally awesome!? What about having lords permanently die in battle but in order to keep the nobility from becoming extinct, have new Lords rise to power to replace ones who've fallen.
Not right away; inheritance would take some time in game.
It would work similar to the way the Nemesis system in Shadow of Mordor always replaces fallen Captains with unknown Uruks who get promoted and fallen Warlords get replaced promoted Captains.
Kings would get replaced with Lords and Lords would be replaced by "long lost relatives" from commoner stock.
