CK3 character IDs
The history IDs of Crusader Kings III 1.20.0.3 characters, from history/characters: first the characters each bookmark puts forward, then every character who holds land on a start date (6,597 rulers over the three starts).
hello_history [id] takes these IDs — the game describes it as “show a character from history”, argument “Scripted history character ID”.
play [character id] wants the in-game character ID instead, which is not the history ID: with debug mode on, hover over a character to see it.
How to use these IDs in the console
- In Steam, add
-debug_modeto the game's launch options (Properties → General). - In the game, open the console with the ` key (§, ~ or ^ on some keyboards).
- Paste the command (
hello_history 122) and press Enter. Using the console turns achievements off for that game.
