Skill issue.

PvP dialogue checks only work on other players if they allow them to, because every player can effectively set the difficulty of the check to "impossible"

This is just how the mechanics are supposed to work, btw. Persuasion checks are rarely supposed to be simple +0 contested rolls. The DM sets the difficulty for NPCs, but only you are supposed to be able to say how difficult it is to persuade your character of something.

Further, even a contested success doesn't always equal a complete success. If the paladin is willing to buy the heart attack story because there's no actual evidence otherwise they might still decide to harbor suspicions that make the next check harder, for example.

I know, girls shouldn't all be expected to raise and tame wolf packs

Show me this king that creates value.

thinks about them constantly and is currently composing a five thousand page poem about them

Not knowing about the Book of Grudges?

Believe it or not, also a grudgin

Until the chaotic evil does some shit that makes the good players immediately throw down, and they will, because 90% of tables don't have someone capable of playing an actual sneaky murder hobo or even a reasonable approximation of Astarion.

Depends on if it's a bloodline relationship.

Handholding types get to be warlocks or clerics

As someone that plays a lot of Crusader Kings I'd do this plotline specifically to give players the choice

Yeah, obviously the laws of the kingdom say the male child is the legitimate ruler, but if the nobles have a problem with it they can raise their little rebellion...

It's a free justification for taking their lands after we win the civil war.
