More Bloodlines

This mod adds 30 different main bloodlines and makes it easier to become a saint. Having the same dynasty as your religion head makes it more likely to become a saint. This is something I made because I thought some actions in game deserve bloodlines and vanilla number of achievable bloodlines is too few. I will add more bloodlines as I get new ideas.

NOTE: I stopped making updates to this mod.

Required DLCs: Holy Fury

Compatibilities:

I am overwriting 01_scripted_effects_duels and 03_scripted_effects_sainthood and realm_decisions files now so mods who touch these files are likely incompatible. Other mods should be compatible unless they are changing game mechanics like HIP

HIP compatible version: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2000465249



Special thanks to Elidurden123, ChackMete, Sumo Dog, ajacksonian, Broken Sky, MuffinMann42, Elements08 and Adon Kohelet for their ideas


PS: I haven't tested the mod extensively so it is possible that some bloodlines are not working as intended. Please report any bug you come across so I can fix it.



Bloodlines and their effects : https://ck2.paradoxwikis.com/More_Bloodlines


Added Bloodlines :


Papal Bloodlines :

After your dynasty controls papacy for 5,10,15,20 and 25 times you get papal blodlines. Having papal bloodlines make it easier to become a saint. (Event description also says dynasty is favored when chosing a Pope however it is not implemented yet. As papal succession is hardcoded I need to make a new succession type for it to work. I may work on it in the future)


Wonder Building Bloodline:

This bloodline is rewarded when player contructs or upgrades a wonder 4 times(before contruction/improvement is completed). If any of the wonders was a holy building you get a different bloodline.


Reformist Bloodline:

For me most disappointing part of reformation was not getting a bloodline considering how much impact it had on game. With this mod when you reform a religion you get a bloodline. If reformed religion has Dogmatic nature, Divine Marriage doctrine and Temporal leadership ou get another stronger bloodline


Virgin Birth Bloodline:
