Shadragon Posted March 15, 2025 Posted March 15, 2025 View File Homoerotic Faiths Homoerotic Faiths adds a new religion, Eroticism, a sexual pagan religion which centers around the worship of male sexuality and features ten diverse variant faiths. Engage in erotic rituals to earn powerful divine blessings and maybe even awaken and master your own inner divinity. Use the power of seduction to convert others to your new faith, or to awaken homoerotic desires in other men. Create a utopia of free love and hedonist revelry, or reign as a tyrant with an indomitable army of devoted deviants.   Features: 10 new variant faiths: From the savage Primalists to the passionate Romanticists to the devious Perverists, there's a flavor of gay sex worship for just about every playstyle. Easy custom faiths: Completing your initiation into one of the Eroticist faiths will earn you a huge discount on creating a custom faith of your own. Naked men: Of the ten Eroticist faiths, six believe all adult men should be naked whenever possible. Two are alright with clothing, and the last two believe men should always wear armor instead. The nudity effect can also optionally be toggled off, if you'd prefer. Erotic rituals: Prove yourself in the Ritual of Virility, gain the blessings of the gods in the Ritual of Communion, or initiate your (adult!) sons to the truth of Eroticism with the Ritual of Manhood. All Eroticist faiths have access to a collection of erotic rituals, each with their own purposes, rewards, and sexy descriptions. New seduction schemes: The Awaken Desire scheme will allow you to tempt a heterosexual or asexual man to potentially become bisexual or homosexual, which is especially useful because the Convert to Eroticism scheme will allow you to attempt to seduce people into converting to your faith. Divine powers: Optionally, players may awaken their inner divinity and, through a lifetime of erotic rituals, master that divine power and harness it to attain immortality. With enough divine power, the Ritual of Cleansing allows you to heal yourself and others of even the most horrific of injuries and ailments, and the Ritual of Preservation allows you to grant the gift of immortality as you see fit. Game rules for customizing your experience: Want both men and women to disavow clothing? Turn on bisexual mode. Prefer not to become an immortal sex god? Turn off divine seeds. Nicknames: If you're lucky, you may just find your people extolling your great virility or the firmness of your faith, but if you're unlucky and a bit of a rake, you may just find yourself earning the title of Whore-King instead. Plays nice with existing characters: Adult player characters gain access to a decision ("Read Erotic Poetry") that allows them to instantly and easily convert to an Eroticist faith of their choice for free. HF does not modify any existing/historical characters.   Requirements: Crusader Dongs 3: Homoerotic Faiths is dependent on the penis size traits and some of the other content from CD3 Version 1.4.3 of the mod requires the latest update of CK3, 1.19 "Scribe" Version 1.4.2 of the mod will only work if you are still running CK3 1.18 "Crane"   Compatibility: Anything that modifies the nudity trigger (should_be_naked_trigger): HF's nudity and armor tenets required me to overwrite a few vanilla triggers. It should be compatible natively with CD3 (HF includes the same edits alongside its own), but if you have any other mods that edit the nudity trigger there'll be some conflicts. Anything that modifies tenets: The way tenets work has recently been overhauled, but it seems like you can still only have one mod that modifies tenets at a time. The list has been moved to the new common/religion/doctrine_group_types folder, so it is at least easier to combine tenet lists from multiple mods now, but you will still need to edit some files to make HF work with another mod that changes tenets. HF also makes minor edits to two vanilla events (lover.0003 and lover.0300, found in the events/relations_events/z_hf_overridden_lover_events.txt file), and two vanilla traits (crusader_king and faith_warrior, found in the common/traits/hf_overridden_traits.txt file). Both of these are very minor edits and if they're causing issues with conflicts, you can safely delete them.  Note on future compatibility/requirements: When the upcoming DLC By God Alone releases, it will almost certainly break this mod. I do plan on updating (or possibly completely remaking) Homoerotic Faiths to work with the new DLC, but there will be massive changes, and the mod will probably require By God Alone to work once it's released.   Faiths: Each Eroticist faith features three custom tenets, one each from three categories. Several faiths have one or two tenets in common, but never all three! All Eroticist faiths are considered pagan for faith hostility, and are organized/reformed to enable holy wars. There are a total of 15 new holy sites for Eroticism scattered across the map, so no matter where you start you should always at least be within pilgrimage distance of one.  Naturalism: Naturalist Eroticism focuses on reverence for all creation and the simple pleasures of a natural, harmonious life. Naturalists know that the beauty of nature is proof of the Divine Fathers' love. - Sacred Humanity - Bonds of Nature - Divine Fatherhood - Polygamy  Romanticism: Romanticist Eroticism focuses on love and passion, promoting a romantic, scholarly lifestyle. Romanticists know that love, in all its many forms, is the essence of the Divine Fathers. - Sacred Humanity - Bonds of Lust - Divine Wisdom - Polygamy  Bacchism: Bacchist Eroticism focuses on the divine ecstasy of sexual pleasure, engaging in wanton bacchanalian revelry to share their pleasure with the Divine Fathers. Bacchists know that their lusts lead the way to divinity. - Sacred Flesh - Bonds of Lust - Divine Destiny - Concubines  Perverism: Perverist Eroticism focuses on the worship of desire itself, holding that all desires are sacred, no matter how dark or perverse, for lust is the language of the Divine Fathers. Perverists know that the only true sin is abstinence. - Sacred Flesh - Bonds of Lust - Divine Deviancy - Concubines  Mysticism: Mysticist Eroticism focuses on the mysteries of the natural world, seeking the sacred knowledge hidden throughout the Divine Fathers' creation. Mysticists know that anything of worth must first be uncovered and its secrets unraveled. - Sacred Cloak - Bonds of Brotherhood - Divine Wisdom - Polygamy  Primalism: Primalist Eroticism focuses on respect for the natural world, but is under no illusion that nature is a kind or merciful master. Primalists know they must be strong to survive and prove their worth to the Divine Fathers. - Sacred Masculinity - Bonds of Nature - Divine Dominance - Concubines  Dominism: Dominist Eroticism focuses on the authority of the Divine Fathers, particularly the Steel-Father, a god of war, strength, and obedience. Dominists know their place; submitting to His will and conquering the heretics in His name. - Sacred Steel - Bonds of Service - Divine Dominance - Concubines  Paternalism: Paternalist Eroticism focuses on the Divine Fathers and their paternal legacy, raising strong and devoted sons and brothers in faith. Paternalists know that service to the Fathers is the highest calling. - Sacred Masculinity - Bonds of Brotherhood - Divine Fatherhood - Concubines  Regalism: Regalist Eroticism focuses on the refinement of regal masculinity. The male form is the masterwork of the Divine Fathers, but Regalists know that all art can be elevated further with the appropriate skill and dedication. - Sacred Regalia - Bonds of Brotherhood - Divine Destiny - Polygamy  Sanguinism: Sanguinist Eroticism focuses on the sanctity of blood, the sanguine essence of the Divine Fathers, the liquid of life and lust. Sanguinists know that the power and purity of divine blood is without equal. - Sacred Steel - Bonds of Service - Divine Deviancy - Concubines   Tenets: There are a total of 14 new tenets divided into three categories, with each Eroticist faith adhering to one tenet from each of the categories.  Sacred Nudity Tenets: These all give bonuses to health and fertility and allow martial clergy. Most also have a nudity effect. Each one also gives bonuses to two skills, which vary based on the tenet.  Sacred Humanity (Romanticism, Naturalism) Spoiler "Men are created in the image of our Divine Fathers, thus the masculine form is the image of divinity.

I encourage you to do so, and I apologize in advance for all the deranged rambling in the code comments. I am by no means an experienced coder, but I did at least try to make my code legible to others (and my future self for that matter) in the hopes of making it accessible to anyone who wants to edit it, or even just use it as a reference for making their own stuff. Hell, if you want to just take the whole thing and use it as a foundation to make your own mod, Homoerotic Faiths But Better, then by all means, go nuts.   Submitter Shadragon Submitted 03/15/25 Category Crusader Kings 3 5
fennecoverlord Posted March 19, 2025 Posted March 19, 2025 So how do I combine two tenent files without bricking it?
justpokinaround Posted March 20, 2025 Posted March 20, 2025 You've provided some of the lore for your mod, but left off quite a bit of practical detail that would induce people to try it out. What do these tenets do in a practical sense? What is their game impact? You've created many faiths, it would be nice to know beforehand their practical differences. Also suggest making clothing an in-game choice for your faiths, similar to the Adoptionism event chain around faith formation. This would increase its appeal. As is, 80% of your faiths are off-limits to me simply because I like clothes. Also, is this a custom character only thing? Is the religion established? Are their wandering members I can marry? Can I convert through an event? These are things you should explain in your description so players can use your mod. Looks promising tho, no hate, just trying to help.
justpokinaround Posted March 20, 2025 Posted March 20, 2025 For those interested, I checked the file. The holy sites are all grouped together in the Baltics, like the Vindilism faith I think.Â

This is excellent feedback, thank you! By the time I wrote the mod description I was so deep in things I'd forgotten the sort of details I should be explaining. The tenets are pretty overloaded so I'm still trying to figure out the best way to present all that information without it being an illegible mess. That's one of my top priorities. The clothing option is a good idea, super simple to implement too so it'll be in the next update. Per your last few questions, player characters can use a decision to freely convert to any Eroticist faith of their choice. It costs nothing, and the only restrictions are that you must be a player character and an adult. I planned to put that in the description (and even remembered to take and upload a screenshot of the event) but forgot to actually write it in lmao. Also, Eroticism is not established and you won't meet any AI characters that have an Eroticist faith unless you're an Eroticist.  Also yes, the holy sites are using the Vidilist sites as a placeholder. I'd like to spread them out a bit so the player can reasonably establish themselves as their own head of faith regardless of where they start, ideally using new holy sites just for Eroticism, but I haven't even looked into how holy sites work yet so I have no clue how realistic that idea is.

(Yet another thing I forgot for 1.0 lol)
justpokinaround Posted March 29, 2025 Posted March 29, 2025 Please add soulmates as potential partners during erotic rituals. It's weird a lover can help with the ritual, but not a soulmate. Also, the ritual of cleansing is so good. I like it so much, I miss it when this mod isn't enabled. Please increase its cost or provide a cool-down though. Currently way too easy to spam the event to increase opinion and nullify opposition.Â
joebear66 Posted March 31, 2025 Posted March 31, 2025 Thanks for making this mod, it's been fun playing with it. I modded Asatru to follow some of the tenets, but I think certain things like the rituals aren't available if the religion itself isn't Erotic. So I tried a game with someone in an actual Erotic faith. Unfortunately, I keep getting stomped as no one else follows these faiths. I'm poking around to see if there's a way to mod to change all started characters who would have been religion X into religion Y, but no luck so far.

Currently way too easy to spam the event to increase opinion and nullify opposition. Soulmates not counting as lovers for erotic rituals is a bug, thanks for catching that! I didn't realize that it was possible to be soulmates but not be considered lovers as well. This will be fixed in the next update, and soulmates will be prioritized as ritual partners like they're supposed to be (Instead of accidentally excluded, like they currently are). The cost of higher tiers of Ritual of Cleansing is also being increased in the next update. I do want it to be something you can use frequently both to keep people you care about healthy and to try and fish for conversions on your neighbors, but it's definitely too spammable right now. I thought maybe the time it took to reach max rank in your divine seed would be enough of a limitation, but after some proper playtesting it's clearly not lol!  On 3/31/2025 at 4:22 AM, joebear66 said: Thanks for making this mod, it's been fun playing with it. I modded Asatru to follow some of the tenets, but I think certain things like the rituals aren't available if the religion itself isn't Erotic.

The next update will finish tying erotic rituals to the Divine Duty tenets instead of having them tied to the Eroticist religion like they are currently. IIRC that'll leave only the Convert to Eroticism scheme tied specifically to the Eroticism religions, and all other content will be available to other religions with HF tenets. The early game can be pretty rough when you first convert to Eroticism. I tried to give the player a few options to help with that (conversion schemes, conversion chance on Ritual of Cleansing, the "I must keep my new faith a secret" option to be a crypto-eroticist, and making sure the Eroticist faiths are all reformed so they get access to holy wars) just to help make up for the fact that you're always going to start out surrounded by hostile faiths. I've been specifically avoiding changing any historical characters for compatibility reasons, but it does unfortunately make things more difficult too. Â
Midwestvest Posted April 11, 2025 Posted April 11, 2025 I would like to thank you for adding this mod to LoversLab. The biggest thing that made me hesitate to to switch from CBO to Crusader Dongs was the lack of more lore driven gay content that was compatible with it and now I'm excited for my magical gay mercenaries to carve out their own empire out of the medieval world. 1
fennecoverlord Posted April 12, 2025 Posted April 12, 2025 I beg of you good sir, now that CD3 has an AGOT patch, would you be willing to make an AGOT patch as well? Pretty please ? ;cÂ

So I apparently was playing with an older version of your mod. I followed this topic back when I first downloaded, but I don't receive notifications when you update, only when someone makes a new comment on the topic. Honestly don't know if that's always been how this site works, can't seem to find a user setting for it. Anyhow, I've since played around with this latest version and I don't think the ritual of cleansing is nearly as spammable as before. You had already made adjustments when I made my comment - sorry about that! Â
fennecoverlord Posted April 14, 2025 Posted April 14, 2025 I swear to god, i'm going crazy, like some sort of Mandela effect right now, because I just KNOW that at some point in the past, this mod had chastity content, and I'm convinced that it was silently removed. Am I crazy?? I feel like i'm losing my mind. Was there ever chastity content in this mod??? Could there be chastity content in this mod? Pretty please, for me?Â

I'm HOPING you intend to re-implement them.
zenpei Posted April 19, 2025 Posted April 19, 2025 Will you be adding any Artifacts to these religions or make it so they can use other religion's artifaccts?
Setnakhte Posted April 21, 2025 Posted April 21, 2025 Made a compatibility patch to make this mod play nicer with The Fallen Eagle's religion mechanics. The deity tab is currently a reskin of the Druidic one, but I'll probably expand it to include all the Divine Fathers. hftfe.zip 1

(Yet another thing I forgot for 1.0 lol) Can you make a tutorial video explain this? I don't really understand the instructions number 2 and 3. Only HF had common/religion/doctrines and i don't know where to paste the tenets from HF, i only saw the brackets of doctrine_core_tenets in HF tenets

Check your mod folder hierarchy. When I downloaded, it created an extra folder that had to be removed before the launcher read the mod. 2

Am I crazy?? I feel like i'm losing my mind. Was there ever chastity content in this mod??? Could there be chastity content in this mod? Pretty please, for me? Damn, I'd hoped nobody would notice! The locked traits were planned content really early on, but I only got as far as making the traits themselves and some icons for them before I realized they were more than I could handle. There was no way to actually get any of them, and there wasn't any interaction between them and the rest of the mod's content so they didn't really do much. I gave up on the idea after I realized that doing it justice would be an immense amount of work that would require editing several vanilla events. It would be best made as a separate mod, and I'm not sure I have what it takes to make such a mod. I initially left them in because I forgot about them, and when I realized my mistake I deleted them silently in the hopes that nobody had noticed them. Sorry I got your hopes up man!   On 4/12/2025 at 2:06 AM, fennecoverlord said: I beg of you good sir, now that CD3 has an AGOT patch, would you be willing to make an AGOT patch as well? Pretty please ? ;c I can look into this, but I have no idea what AGOT changes and what I'd need to do to make a patch, so I can't make any promises. If it's as simple as just finding new spots for the holy sites, then there shouldn't be any problems hopefully.   On 4/22/2025 at 4:56 AM, bbtv1999 said: Can you make a tutorial video explain this?

If the other mod doesn't even have the common/religion/doctrines directory though, AFAIK it shouldn't be editing tenets at all, so if it somehow still is and that's breaking things then I have no clue how to help.   On 4/18/2025 at 7:48 PM, zenpei said: Will you be adding any Artifacts to these religions or make it so they can use other religion's artifaccts? No plans for making artifacts at the moment. Allowing Eroticism to use artifacts from another religion would require giving it a syncretism doctrine. IIRC, a religion can only have one syncretism doctrine, and both religions needs to be an agreement of that syncretism for it to work properly, so in order to make Eroticism syncretic with a vanilla religion I'd need to edit that vanilla religion, which I've been trying to avoid.   On 4/23/2025 at 1:35 PM, howza said: Ive downloaded and extracted to my mod folder but this doesnt appear in the list to add to a playset, any ideas? Sorry, I've apparently been packaging the mod incorrectly and didn't even notice! That extra Homoerotic_Faiths_v1.2 folder isn't supposed to be there.

Adjusting HF to be compatible with those changes is just totally beyond my abilities, sorry. If anyone else is able and willing to make such a patch, they have my full permission to do so.

I can make the mod work overall in the AGOT mod, but since there are no holy sites I have to use the console to make myself head of the faith.
Shadragon Posted May 4, 2025 Author Posted May 4, 2025 New update is out. Ritual of Manhood has been expanded quite a bit, and players who have completed the Ritual of Apotheosis have some fun new options. If you have the ageless form of Light of the Fathers, you'll need to switch to the immortal form in the new update. Turns out there was never actually any mechanical difference between the ageless and immortal versions of the trait. Not only did I forget to make the change that was supposed to make them function differently, but it turns out that making that change wouldn't have made them function differently anyway. Immortality just always makes you ageless. Fortunately, that doesn't matter because the set_immortal_age function exists, and the only reason I wanted a form of immortality that let you keep aging visually was because I didn't think it was possible to directly adjust your visual age. 1
