Elven Empire Quest (CK2)

The problem is that this neglects the pcs best stats, we are the sneaky magic nerd from what I understand, and will on average operate under -5 diplomacy. It's definitely worth taking, but someone is already specced into it. Anything that synergies in the 30s is probably not worth it.
The PC's best stats are her magic generalist stats, and stewardship. You have looked at her character sheet on the front page by now? On average, we'll be operating around below 10 diplomacy, as long as nothing is attempted to fix that. If she becomes the empress having skill in diplomacy would be beneficial to compete with her sister, or to at least not come off as the worse option. Bringing DIplomacy up will synergize better with Intrigue.

I believe we should improve in our poor diplomacy and self discipline before anything else.

I really think that we may want to increase our Intrigue here, so that we can better leverage Ruthless here, as I believe that schemes will roll based on our Intrigue stat, so the higher Intrigue we have, the less chances we have of the scheme going bad.
May use any scheme against any character.
Our Forma score is at 14, which is good enough that I feel like using a one of our three choices on it is kind of a waste.
 
This tallying is going to be a mess, with the mixture of planned and free roam votes.

I'll be collecting all the votes in such a way that each voter's votes will be considered as a set. In that particular case, though, it's looking as if there's currently a tie between:

UNNAMED PLAN:
Diplomacy++, Discipline++, Seduction

and

Plan Empress-Scientist:
Diplomacy++, Stewardship++, Artifice

though it's not necessarily a sure thing for either of them just yet. Perhaps it might be more focused if people hopped back to look at the Magic primer in the Other Information threadmark, or the World Map I recently added.

I will also mention that increasing a Magic School was a bit disingenuous in the original post. While other stats would increase by ~8, the magical skills would only increase by an average of 4 (I'm using a different scale for them than regular skills for various reasons).

Hmm, let me clean that up a bit.

Well then. A tie... Guess I'll open it back up for a bit longer? Technically the unnamed vote has the highest number of similar votes, I could just push that one through if nobody minds?
