      Hunting focus, dog/cat (dog is more likely with hunting) rerolling to get gluttonous (and hopefully fat eventually, feasts should help), does dark familiar clash with pet, and if not then can it give health?
      I know there are some artefacts that give health but I doubt you can get them that quick.
      Technically a very good physician and a mild illness on something that already doesn't take much health would actually increase your health but it's undependable.
      If you start with military education you get +0.5 health.
      you technically can get rowdy/strong (not sure which) from an event in martial focus but you can't afford to risk 5 years on that for an EXTREMELY rare event
      Can a vassalized countess get the seeking immortality event, because I remember the martial one giving you robust

    You could also try to get insanely lucky with the Babushka by having the following unlikely events happen:

    2) Survive long enough for the entire quest chain to play out.
    3) Turn out to have had a real immortal, not a charlatan, as your mentor.
    4) Succeed in the correct mentor's correct test by picking the correct answer... and then getting quite lucky.

    King Eadmund of east Anglia was a real dude and pretty metal. The story goes that he didn’t want to convert so the Vikings tied him to a tree and made him into a pin cushion with arrows. They knew that Christians believed in very specific burial rights and if the whole body wasn’t present to be buried, the person couldn’t go to heaven. So, they cut of eadmunds head and hid it in the woods. Eadmund was pretty chill about the whole ordeal, and played a Viking age game of Marco Polo with the east Anglians, guiding them to his head with his disembodied voice. When they found his head, it was being guarded by a fox, so animals wouldn’t eat it. They buried him and now he’s a catholic saint.

      >Converted to merchant republic.
      >After 200 years, my Great republic of Iceland didn't expand any borders, but instead it developed in depth. Now it is an abolutly centralized state with 10 well-developed holdings, that is colonizing the whole Britain with it's trade posts. Some kingdoms try to break free, but they don't stay a chance against the brave 10k troops of my holings' levy, retinues and custom mercenary company. My ruler has 100 monthly income, my capital is the richest county in the world.

      I managed to pull off the Kingdom of David achievement starting as him. Granted it took about a week of playing and I failed on my first try due to being burned at the stake as a heretic after pledging allegiance to the Muslim emperor. Pro tip on that never become a counselor if you are still openly Jewish. Because if you do you will be in their court and they can execute you. Also focus on getting the silk road trade post's around the horn of Africa in internal wars and moving your capital. Things get easier after that.

    Iceland 867 is a really fun, and absolutely doable start. Ever heard of viking raids? (plenty of ships) OP Pagan prestige retinues? Just pick 'Become king' ambition and you get free subjugation CB's on everyone in your kingdom. You can blob like crazy as ANY Pagan Norseman with decent martial in 867.

    High Chief Zistisbor of Sorbia in the 867 bookmark is pretty bad, you can't really invade it's neighbours, which are Greater Poland, a tributary of Greater Moravia and East Francia. In the north, however, is the Chiefdom of Dymin, which is worth like nothing. You start with a trash army and only 2 martial. And most of the time, you get invaded by Greater Poland, which you'll probably not survive.

    I actually had a pretty good came of Giocopo; I was able to take over most of Italy while remaining a vassal to the Pope. If I remember correctly, I conquered the counties of Southern Italy and took advantage of HRE civil wars. By the end I was a Duke, the Pope's ONLY vassal, and very wealthy.

    I actually managed to make myself the king of France as a descendant of Giacopo, as well as Emperor of the Latin empire. Secured my position as the duke of Salerno and Capua in the south while still working for the Pope-man, and then won France in a crusade against the Aztecs (random Aztek start date, so obviously they showed up the DAY after 50 years had passed, or near enough, chose the self-serving crusader option), pushed my brother into the Latin Empire when the crusade came around again and the Venetians did their thing, my brother was murdered (not by me...) and was inherited by me. Put a cousin in charge of Orvieto and granted him independence to avoid the inevitable excommunication and moved to Paris, my cousin quickly (and wisely) swore fealty to the Pope.
    Was never threatened by the Pope in the 75 years or so I worked for him as a loyal vassal. The line of Giacopo had the permanent chancellorship of the Papacy during the entire period.
