Regents are not chosen by you unless you are a ruler who designates a regent. You can never take any hostile action against your regent unless an event is triggered in which they steal money from you and you can punish them. If you have an intrigue skill of 20 and your regent has 5, then the game uses 5 as your ruler's intrigue rather than your 20. While you play as the young, underaged king of France you use the stats of your regent. But what if you're too young to be king?Ī regent is the person who rules in your name. There you are - being king of France is a good thing.
