Medieval Matriarchs

Still, even without infidelity, under Lesbian Divinity or Sapphic Exaltation, even heterosexual women will marry other women, at which point if they married a homosexual/bisexual woman it's very likely their partner will attempt the scheme. I may add something in this space in the future where heterosexual characters in such marriages may receive an event to change their orientation.

I admit it's something I don't think about personally a lot since I tend to go full-on Polyamory all the time, but I know not everyone plays that way.

@Derah Both of them will encourage the AI to use the Convert scheme more often. I should note it does go quicker if you, at least at first, use the scheme to convert some of your own heterosexual vassals (since, obviously, only homosexual/bisexual women will use the scheme in the first place).

There are other factors to consider, notably the matter of infidelity. The AI still considers using the scheme to be "cheating", so if they're the type to not cheat on their partner they won't use it. To some degree you can simply allow female adultery, but it doesn't have a full effect unless your faith has Polyamory, at which point nothing is considered "cheating" anymore and everyone will be willing to use the scheme.

There is a small background event that will flip the sexuality of female clergy of a lesbian faith.

So I have a new question then.

When creating a custom faith, what's the difference between Lesbian Divinity and Sapphic Exaltation?

Both of these cause the AI to do that Convert Scheme?

Ohhh, that part I did not know. About the mass-use of Convert to slowly turn the population into Lesbians overtime.

Now that I have that context, yeah, I can see it making more sense and being a little bit more realistic than a magical Gay Switch lol.

@Derah I'm not sure that's necessarily needed, seems a little "fantasy" to me. I find that if you have a religion with one of the lesbian doctrines, followers of the faith will slowly become vast majority lesbian/bisexual over a few generations (due to the AI using Convert schemes and encouraging their children to explore the idea), which feels more natural to me. I dunno, to me the option to just have a doctrine that when added to the faith instantly turns every adherent homosexual is a bit much.

Hey there! Great mod! I was wondering though if it would be possible for you to add one key feature from Sapho's Daughter here. In that mod, there's a custom religion that turns every female adherent into a lesbian.

I was wondering if there was a way to do that here too.

Their stats are actually pretty baseline, the main thing is I've tried to make them "interesting" by having them get some decent traits here and there. Stuff like herbalist, traveler, hastiluder, hunter, blademaster, etc.. Pretty much every Amazon ends up with some assortment of traits I felt were appropriate. Those traits come with skill boosts that tend to make the "low to decent" skill rating I've assigned as their spread boost into very competent numbers, though it can be somewhat random. Weighted random, as I've tried to make the especially relevant traits like strong and athletic much more common, but still random.

I can try and lower their baseline stats to some degree, but I don't know how much difference it will make. The standouts will still stand out a lot, though it'll probably make the lower rolls more noticeable.

I suggest you add a game rule for choosing between two or more templates for Amazonian Warriors, when you have that look over of the Amazonian Warrior template.

I like that the Amazonian warriors are always interesting characters that you'd like to have in your court, but I find that they are generally all to well rounded characters, making 100% of my 'natural' characters obsolete.

A template option could be "Warriors only" So they are only exceptional in martial and prowess, but on average mediocre with the remaining traits.
Another option could be "Random Specialty" or something, where they are skilled warriors + one more thing. To have a more powerful option for people who like the powerful courtiers.

Regardless I like the mod, it's a clear staple of my mod-list weather or not I plan to become a matriarchal dynasty.

Today's update may cause some degree of save-breaking due to adding a new faith. Unfortunately, if I want to add a new faith, I know of no way around this, so I thought to get it out early in the content's life cycle (honestly I wanted it out even earlier, but I kept adjusting small things here and there which kept pushing it back). Hopefully doing this ahead of time will avoid save-breaking in the future updates. I don't know if it will cause outright crashes or anything, but it may cause weirdness.

@千早爱音 There beauty/intellect traits are not guaranteed on Amazons, there is only a chance for them to have them. They will always have one of the physique traits, however. While I am planning on having another look at the Amazon warrior template in the future, I wouldn't expect any drastic changes.
