I'd say that those are generally good rolls, not sure what they pertain to though. Part of me guesses it may have to do with the twins birth?

That is the issue. Good rolls could be terrible if they are rolls against us. And since don't know what it's about... that being said, all rolls are within the general average (though notably all three above the average), so, eh, nothing too terrible at least.

...or not, if single rolls do matter o_O
 
Hm. So In all three rolls, half the dice are per twin, probably. Which potentially means one of the twins is an absolute monster in some field ir other. Or one of those Targ mutants, who knows.

Well, I hope that the Twins are OK they are completely inocent, and I hope that unlike Canon Rhaenyra we can have a funcional relationship with our Half Siblings...

Although if both of them end up being girls we would sleep better at night....

It is unfortunately rather unlikely, I remeber that dream we had at Harrenhal.
 
I am going to guess that at least one roll might have something to do with daemon. We haven't heard from him in a while. Any other thoughts?

I hope the trait thingy doesn't go as bad as it did in another quest, in which Nyra's brother rolled a Nat 1 and then a Nat 100 on the Traits selection...

So he ended up with both the "genius" and "sociopath" traits...
 
The new character sheet formatting looks absolutely ass on mobile. Hard to read, with even very short words being split in twain.
You also seem to have organized some skills in ways that don't make sense to me. Why are dragon riding and dragon bond separate categories? What purpose is there to the administration stat; is it just stewardship excepting money? If leadership isn't charisma (diplomacy) or generalship (warcraft/martial), than what is it?
I admit that the CK2 stats system has flaws, but at least we generally have a great deal of practice parsing the limits of those. Your categories are both too vague and too specific, somehow. They don't feel consistent, and the unequal emphasis on the importance of skills are confusing.
I don't know, I wish you can re-refine the character sheet, and I hope my criticism wasn't utterly unhelpful.

Because you can be an experienced dragonrider on a dragon you only just recently bonded with, or a very inexperienced rider on a dragon you have an excellent bond with for weird mystical reasons?

The skill set of running a nation or even a bureaucracy within a nation is distinct from the skill set of, say, running an inn very well. Both the world's best innkeeper and Tywin Lannister are high-Stewardship characters, but their skill specialization is not the same, and not just because one is better at handling money in the strict sense than the other.

There's a Venn diagram overlap between leadership (in the sense of 'can manage a large organization well') and generalship ('can handle and sustain armies well'), but they are not the same. Leadership and charisma are pretty strongly separate, because being good at personally charming people isn't remotely the same as being good at running an organization.

You might say that Tyrion Lannister has pretty good Leadership and decent Generalship, for instance, but terrible Charisma. Putting him in charge of an organization makes it very likely the organization will perform up to or even beyond reasonable expectations of its capabilities, and he knows how to set up a battle advantageously to himself at least sometimes, but despite him being fairly persuasive one-on-one, almost nobody likes him and it's usually easy to win social capital by mocking and degrading him.
