His successors were also obliged to entail more property. The succession would pass through the first-born sons, excluding illegitimate children and clerics. The presumptive heir was not allowed to marry without the consent of his parents, under the penalty of being removed from the succession. In addition, each administrator had to be physically and mentally fit, to be loyal to the Church and to the Crown, and to use the name and the coat of arms of the Britos.
