Want to be the legendary Ragnar Lodbrok and raid Calradia? Want all your favorite cast members from season 1 to be in your clan? Then download this.
This is a very lightweight mod to convert your clan to the Kattegat clan! This mod does not edit any xmls or add assets and items to the game. This is purely a script mod.
Not required but the characters will not look right without this mod installed. Detailed Character Creation is another option if you do not want to use this. I recommend this over DCC.

Changelogs
Version 1.5.0
Mod uses ButterLib instead of BannerLib now.
Version 1.4.5
Fix for education at 8 years old if you selected Nord culture. Restart not required if you started your campaign with v1.4.4 of this mod. If you started your campaign with v1.4.3 or prior versions, you will need to just delete those saves and restart! >_< Lots of fixes in v1.4.4 if you missed the changelog!
Version 1.4.4
Fixed spawn location if Calradia Expanded was detected in your load order. This mod doesn't work on 1.1.4 so the spawn location for this mod was removed.
Added patch to fix marriage scene of spawned heroes. This bug occurs if you load your game and tried to view a scene that includes one of the spawned heroes.
Fixed Lagertha being considered a fugitive and being removed form the party after marrying Rangar when inititially setting up the clan.
Fixed party roles being assigned if the player was higher skilled in a situation and changed which order roles get filled. Checks for best skill value in the relevant skill for the party role.
Fixed recalling party members located in Kattegat to your party. Later on when you own a settlement there is dialogue to retrieve your clan members back in Kattegat. Watch season 1, did Ragnar send for Helga while in England?! :D
All clan members will now spawn as normal lords and not companions. I think this fixed marriages when another clan send you a courier message as it worked for me without needing to patch anything.
Setup localization.
Version 1.4.3
Fixed heroes not initializing properly on load. Fixes a bunch of crashes.
Version 1.4.2
Fixed Ragnar's black and white banner color saving properly.
Version 1.4.1
Lowerd cost of recruiting Nords from Kattegat to 10k
Fixed setting leave encounter when exiting dialogue with dialogue added by the mod.
You can now have unlocked perks randomly selected for you when first spawning as Ragnar and creating the Kattegat clan.
Fixed other random bugs and certain logic no longer needed.
Version 1.3.2
Changed setting Occupation for heroes through reflection to using the now public method.
Version 1.3.1
Added some flavor dialogue for Aethelstan and Lagertha.
Some code improvements.
Version 1.3.0
Fixed crash when spawning as Ragnar caused by recent hotfix.
Prevent clan members away in Kattegat from being able to be selected as a party leader for new parties in the clan parties menu.
Clan members staying in Kattegat or recruiting there will now show this behavior on the clan members menu.
Version 1.2.11
Fixed recruiting bug where he would initiate conversation with the player right when he spawns with the recruits in Vlandia.
Fixed bug where Rollo would still be in settlements after telling him to go to Kattegat. This would occur if you were in the settlement when you ordered him and never left. Rollo would keep spawning into scenes.
Added text boundaries to most messages and used colors consistently now.
Recruiting dialogue for Rollo will now always be visible but will be disabled if you don't have enough gold (25,000).
Version 1.2.10
Fixed a bug if you spoke to Rollo again in the same scene after ordering him to go to Kattegat to get recruits.
Version 1.2.8
Fixed key toggle so you can't open the dialogs twice by pressing enter twice and can't toggle the key in game menus
Fixed a crash when viewing Helga or Siggy in the encyclopedia, after they have arrived to Calradia.
Version 1.2.7
Added warning message when there was 1 week left before the recruits landing in Vlandia.
Added a message when Nord recruits land in Vlandia.
Version 1.2.6
Now script boots Helga, Siggy, Bjorn and Gyda out of settlements in Calradia since they are supposed to be in Kattegat. Helga and Siggy can be brought over to a settlement of your choice by the recently added dialogue in 1.2.5 (Talk to Floki and Rollo). Eventually I will make a way to bring your kids over once they come of age.
Encyclopedia entries for Bjorn, Gyda, Siggy and Helga will now say they were last seen in Kattegat until you bring them over. Currently you can only invite Helga and Siggy over. They will come stay at a settlement of your choice as long as you are inside the settlement and not at war with the owner of the settlement.
Version 1.2.5
Added dialog for Floki and Rollo. While in a town, you can ask them about how they like the town which will lead to you to tell them to have them send for Helga (Floki) or Siggy (Rollo) to come stay in the settlement. This will take 25 days.
Added localization support.
Edited the green boundary text to take up a full line. (Tested on 1080p resolution) See recently added image.
Fixed a bug with Helga. Adding her to the clan's hero cache manually.
Version 1.2.4
Heroes are set to active state when spawned now.
Added dialogs for clan members. Talk to Rollo to recruit Nord warriors! It will take time since he has to sail back to Kattegat and it is expensive. For now this is the only dialog. As long as Rollo is in your party and you have 25k you can ask to talk about something then tell him you have an important task. He will be gone for a season! (21 days) Then he will land on the west coast of vlandia with your recruits and set out looking for you.
Applied courtship to Rollo and Siggy.
Fixed clan dialog so they don't introduce themselves to you when first talking to them.
Version 1.2.3
Party roles are selected when you first spawn in as Ragnar now. It will select the hero with the best stats for scout engineer, quartermaster and surgeon.
Aethelstan now spawns in as a companion
Version 1.2.2
Made it compatible with vanilla or Calradia Expanded once that mod gets updated.
Version 1.2.1
When starting as Ragnar now the mod will ask if you want to use the Nord or Sturguan culture. Using Nord is a WIP and requires the mod to be left installed to utilize patches included in this mod.
You can toggle your culture from Nord to Sturgian or vice versa now in case you are playing as a nord and running into crashes. The mod's intent is for Ragnar to be Nord and one day I will try to create a custom Norse culture. If anyone knows how to do that message me.
Version 1.2.0
1.7.1
Fixed starting position if you were not using Calradia Expanded before. Before I made this mod while using Calradia Expanded. Now it will work on the vanilla map and you won't get stuck.
Version 1.1.0
Compiled for 1.6.3
Version 1.0.3
Prevented Become Ragnar key from working when the game is paused or in certain menus.
Fixed crash when entering your owned settlement to walk around. This required a patch so now you will leave this mod installed while playing!!!!!!
If Ragnar's config load fails it will load the default starting stats.
Now a confirmation dialog pops up before it turns you into Ragnar. The key only works if you are not Ragnar.
Other minor fixes.
Version 1.0.2
Now you can load starting stats from configs for all character's including the player/Ragnar.
Version 1.0.1
Fixed a bug loading equipment if someone tried to load a horse to a character's battle equipment. Removed Weapon4 from the mod's list of equipment indices. This weapon slot appears to be unused for characters.
Warning: For users who select the Nord culture when spawning as Ragnar, this is a WIP and may cause crashes. The Nord culture is not loaded like one of the main cultures and is missing stuff. I still have to patch some things to make it work with the game properly. Just report crashes in the comments and describe what you were doing in game when the crash occurred. Thanks! Also, I intend to one day create a custom Norse culture. If anyone knows how to do it with the XMLs and wants to help improve this mod, then message me.
Intro:
You are Ragnar Lodbrok. You are with your crew and you have just landed on the newly discovered continent of Calradia to raid!
This mod is best used on a new Sandbox game although it would work on an existing save. It will change the player character to Ragnar and spawn all your clan members!
Instructions:
1. Install mod with vortex
2. Enable in launcher
3. Start a sandbox campaign
4. Make your character selections, do not worry about editing your character's appearance, setting the age or setting their name. This mod will change them. Just click next. If you are not loading Ragnar's stats from the config file, then also select your life choices which setup your stats. Other than that make your campaign option selections in the last screen and start the new game.
5. Don't worry about setting your clan name or banner when the game starts, just click ok. The mod will over write them.
6. Now once your game is ready to start just press the Enter key and make your choices in the dialog windows.
7. Now you are Ragnar, your clan is "av Kattegat." You can now save your game and start your campaign!
