This mod adds 17 characters throughout the Universal Century timeline. The vanilla Leaders are there but can be removed by the edict options. I selected their ethics based on my hazy memory of the characters personality and actions.
If they did not fit any ethics, I placed them on the need to have at least have two Leaders for each ethic. The same process went about on selecting their traits. For their subclass, I decided to start all leaders at level 3, so the player can decide what subclass path they want to pick.
The Newtype ranking is something I wanted. For now, I made most of the leaders have a generic Newtype trait that will rank up at level 6 and level 10. Each ranking will increase in power for their respected classes.
The first Newtype rank is called Latent Newtype, provides minor bonuses.
The second rank is Awared Newtype, achieved when a Leader reaches level 6. Awared Newtype receives a 2x bonus on their vanilla subclass.
The final rank is Awakened Newtype and gained when a leader is level 10. Awakened Newtypes have a 3x bonus on their vanilla subclass.
All of the rankings of Newtypes are not destiny traits, so you can still choose a destiny trait. If the subclass is a councilor trait, the Leader will receive an extra trait so the Leader can have 2x or 3x bonus based on Newtype ranking. I couldn’t find a way to make all modifiers be in one trait, so that’s why I made them add a trait.
There is custom tooltips, so hopefully everything works as intended. Most Leaders has different catch phrases, those messages that pop up when they join, for each Leader class they have available. Some Leaders have different portraits(poses/clothing) when you select a different Leader Class. Each Leader includes a short summary in their description.
There is no unique dialogue options for any Leader and no unique events. There is the vanilla events for Vanilla Leaders that affects UC Leaders. I was surprised it triggered on the UC Leaders.
Amuro(MSG & CCA), Char(MSG & CCA), and Loran have unique traits.
I have no idea if the Newtype trait and unique traits are balanced or not.
Compatibility?
It should theoretically work with any mods as the only thing this mod changes in vanilla is the paragon event known as paragon.4001. That event is where the UC Leaders and vanilla Leaders are added to.
