[archived] Children of Perun: a Slavic Flavour Mod

Do you feel that some regions could use some more love? I have you covered (at least for Slavic people)!

This mod includes a large set of flavour events, decisions and historical accuracy changes for Slavs, bringing life to Slavic religion, traditions and customs. All the content in this mod has been thoroughly researched and is based on reports of events and descriptions of Slavic customs coming from contemporaneous travellers, historians and chroniclers, widely accepted theories by modern scholars and ethnographic materials offering an insight into ancient festivals, beliefs and practises.


✽ 20 brand new events: take part in Slavic religious festivals, resolve incidents and disputes between your family, vassals and priests and get a taste of day-to-day princely life in medieval Slavia.
✽ 20+ Northern Lords events made available to Slavic realms, with culturally-relevant names and flavour where necessary (requires the DLC).


✽ Three separate faiths: East, West and South Slavic, with new holy sites, different tenets and original icon sets.
✽ A religious decision to hold a Dodole rite, with dosens of potential variations in the subsequent events.
✽ A decision to choose your patron deity with descriptions of major gods, relevant modifiers and original icons.
✽ Revised Slavic gods, deities and religious terms based on modern scholarship.


✽ Russian culture is re-named Rus’ and is now a hybrid culture of Norse and Ilmenian cultures, with access to culturally relevant Longships and Table of Princes innovations, as well as trial by combat.
✽ Cultural and religious events are available to characters of all Slavic cultures, with inspirations for some events coming from East, West and South Slavs.
✽ Major decision - Seek a New Faith for the Rus' - that is directly based on the Russian Primary Chronicle and sparks a branching chain of 10+ events.


✽ Ideas, research, scripting and English texts by owgrunt (Artem Samarsky)
✽ Russian texts and editing by smakkabagms (Maria Kuznetsova)
✽ Honourable mention to the members of CK3 Mod Co-op for answering a lot of stupid questions from me.
