So why did CK3 shy away from slavery?

Slavery was a big part of the eras this game takes place in. Infact being captured held a real fear of being put into the slave trade. The closest CK3 really comes to that though is throwing characters into a dungeon or making them a concubine. So why did the game shy away from it. Is it because it could potentially offend some players?

Are some of you using mods to make character portraits seem slightly more realistic then they are in the base game?

Just curious because as someone who doesn't use any mods a lot of the character images people post on here seem a lot more detailed then the ones in my game are. Of course I always start at the earliest start point (867) and haven't gone further then about fifty years up to this point so they might get more detailed the further you go into the game. But just wondering because as of now a lot of portraits you guys post seem a lot more detailed then they are in my game.

I just had a kid born with red hair. The mother was a red head but I know in the game red hair is generally a recessive trait so both parents would have to have a red hair gene in order for their kid to have red hair. On the father's side though they have all had brown hair for many generations (with an occasional blonde sprinkled in). I know I did have a red headed concubine that my character had offspring with but that would have been three or four generations back (would have been the newborn's great great grandparents) and I will have to look back at the family tree but I don't think that concubine is in the direct line of the father of this child.

Will have to go back and see who the mothers were of the characters in the direct ancestry line for this character to see if there were any red heads sprinkled in there.

Main question is though is how far back can genetics go and still have an impact on the looks of a child.

Lol and it's funny that I have just as much fun looking into this kind of stuff as I do in playing the other aspects of the game.

Have many of you really looked into the story of the Bell Witch that much and if so do you think it was a lot of hogwash where the family was either making up stories or imagining things?

I'm guessing the original ideas the filmmakers of BWP got for the movie were in some ways inspired by the Bell Witch mystery.
