[3.0] Burning Catholics At The Stake

Game Version
3.0

What expansions do you have installed?
All of the above

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
In this game I've been a member of the Dominican Order for a few generations. Occasionally, an event will fire where it tells me that someone has been "caught", and burned at the stake. The character in question (who was caught) has been burned at the stake, but they were members of my order, which is not a secret society or anything like that. I assume this is a Lucifer's Own event firing for the Dominican Order for some reason. I'll try and get a screenshot next time it happens. I can't upload because it's Ironman and hasn't happened for a while.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
1. Join the Dominican Order
2. Wait. Generally this event will fire about once every 20 years in my experience.

Are you sure they weren't secretly some other religion?

 

[General Karthos]

Not as far as I can tell. The message I got was "Oh no! So-and-so has been exposed! They wasted no time in burning him at the stake!" Or something like that. The people killed were members of the Order (which meant they couldn't be Lucifer's Own, since one can only be a member of one society at a time.) And the rulers in question were also catholics (I checked). One of them was even a member of the Dominican Order.

So this is either something I don't understand or it's a bug.

First time it happened, I wrote it off as a fluke. Second time, I was curious. Third time I started to think something was wrong.

I've seen this happen to members of the Order of St. Basil as Orthodox, too.

 

[Gunthah]

I've seen this same thing happen many times since Monks and Mystics: members of catholic societies burned at the stake by catholics after being "discovered".

Who is the court chaplain? It's entirely possible that they're incompetent at their job and is just pulling random people. Last I checked, traits tie into who the chaplain pulls for the "stakeening".

 

[General Karthos]

These are foreign nations; I didn't think to look at their Chaplain either time. Maybe they were dragged in as demon worshippers but falsely accused, but their death prompts the message regardless.

Still, there's a bug here either way, either the message itself shouldn't be firing, or the burning at the stake shouldn't be happening.

(I never saw this happen prior to 3.0, but I also almost never joined societies other than the Hermetic Society prior to 3.0.)

If they were burning random people it wouldn’t say in the event that they’ve been discovered as members of the Dominican/Benedictine Order.

Not sure it´s a bug. The event to burn is triggered by the "witchhunt"/"Hunt Apostages"(or what it´s called!), The Caplain- job that M&M introduced. I usually, maybe wrongly, think at least the reason is that caplain is hiding something himself They hinted something in that direction in the M&M trailer at least

I have seen it many times. Ever since M&M released and has all time thought it was legit
