📋 About This Mod
A spirit successor of Age settings with Children Are No Longer Invulnerable integrated.
Features
Children Lords
Have you ever felt that children takes too long to grow up? Tired of waiting for them to turn 18 before they even touch the
world of Calradia?
This mod hopes to fix that by introducing interactable children as soon as they grow up to a certain age (configurable)! They will participate in battles, take part in arenas and even lead armies!
Bandit Children
Integrated from Some Bandits Are Now Children, children bandits now roam in bandit parties! This setting is configurable, but only applied when new bandit parties spawn.
Misc Tweaks
Number of Clan Parties Multiplier - Adjustable number of parties per clan that will roam the map. Children will no longer need to wait for their elders to die before a party slot is opened for them.
Requirements
Harmony - Used to patch Age Model
Mod Configuration Menu - To configure age settings
Warning
This mod is not for everyone! Since this mod adds children into the world of Calradia's battlefield (not exactly a
peaceful place), please avoid this mod if you have/had trouble discerning games from reality!
