IF AN HEIR ROLLS BELOW THEIR CLASS (Rank 2: Duke rolls for Rank 10: Blacksmith) they lose their title, and it goes to the next sibling. If no siblings, it can either go to an aunt or uncle, or drop from the game. This could be for various historical reasons; lost war and territory, disinheritance, treason, so on…
