[@Havoccultist] What changes would you suggest to make it more like a NRP?

I'd suggest having players heading nations from the get go. Maybe they're breakaway states that ceded from the pre-existing kingdoms, or maybe they've always been there and this Calradia is an AU of sorts. Or, maybe they come from other lands entirely and are mounting an invasion or have carved out a settlement for themselves here. Ultimately it should emphasize the nation/nation building aspect, though key characters/figures within each nation will inevitably be made at some point, as players will undoubtedly focus on the micro scale eventually.

Well, figures that aren't required for a functional polity by default anyway. Figures such as the king, queen, vassals/lords, members of a council or ministers, etc.
