Cult of Pleasure
Alright, new forum, time for dev diaries again. From the next version Asur and Druchii will no longer be immune to the call of Chaos, I had already posted a preview of the new concubine system last week, but it was lost with the old forum, so let's get through everything again:
Cadai and Cytharai rulers, if possessing some traits, will have a chance of being tempted and take the path of corruption. There are several specific chains that should provide a wide array of experiences depending on the character.
Once a ruler has embraced a decadent lifestyle, he has the chance to convince others as well, through targetted decision (it works an a way similar to the Seduce option from WoL).
Twisting other people's mind might be of help later on, if the decadent behavior of the ruler ends up resulting in unpleasant.. consequences revealing his nature, by which point your secret supporters will join you and openly embrace the forbidden cult.
And beware, pious players, for the secret cultists will use fake vanilla events to try and twist you.
As already stated before, from the next version any Slaaneshi/Atharti/Cult of Pleasure ruler will be able to pick amongst his/her prisoners/courtiers concubines, regardless of genders. As for Amazons, any King-tier will be allowed to pick males from the court/dungeon.
Every concubine can be managed through targetted decision, although only Slaaneshi/Atharti/Cult of Pleasure rulers get access to the more flavored options.
As an alternative, if the ruler has a proper harem, he/she can decide to retire with it for some time by decision (like pilgrimage), gaining prestige and piety, but with increasing chance of stacking negative traits.
And that's it for now. Tomorrow I'll put up another Dev Diary regarding the new Druchii casus belli.
