Well, here I present Golshan "the Accursed", the she-demon who converted from Zoroastrian to the Manichean heresy and is hated through out the kingdom of Khiva.
Please note that at some point she had the "taking military advice from Jesus" trait

"Hey, guys I did this, isn't it strange!?"Well, here I present Golshan "the Accursed", the she-demon who converted from Zoroastrian to the Manichean heresy and is hated through out the kingdom of Khiva.

Yeah, one could say that the second screenie is strange, but the fact that it's your char makes it completely normal that you're Manichean.
The Chiefdom of Cagliari got company. Capua and Arborea are also ruled by Norse chiefs now and nobody seems to care about that, not even the pope.
I didn't change anything. Besides getting a Zoroastrian character "possessed" and not a christian one seems pretty strange to me, let alone that the character is guided by Jesus.
The possessed trait can occur in all religions, and you're only being guided by Jesus instead of Ahura Mazda because that event series doesn't have religion-specific localisation, at least in the case of the "[positive deity] gives military advice" event/modifier.
It's not really strange at all, tbh, it's more to do with insufficient localisation. I'm pretty certain Muslims have Jesus giving military advice instead of Allah, as well.
It was nice to see Skalla-Grímr Kveldúlfsson of "Egil's Saga" fame in the game (I think it's a feature of the HIP mod, but he may be in Vanilla).
I'm not sure if the saga mentioned he was an expert jungle fighter, however.

Less strange for Muslims because Isa is a prophet in Islam, too. Still, not a military prophet, so its absurdity is shared with Christianity in that Jesus probably wasn't even aware of how to hold a sword and shield let alone lead an army.
Yeah, I don't see how "Erm, hit them with the pointy end, maybe? Also don't let their pointy ends get to you, because then you might die" could realistically lead to a 20-point Martial increase.
Personally, I think she's overrated.
What has she done? Isn't it possible that despite her physical and mental inabilities she achieved something big? Wouldn't it be even bigger because of her retardation?

This guy fled to India from Poland at some point, converted to Jainism, adopted Kanneda culture, and must have inherited weak claims on the kingdom of Poland, duchy of lesser Poland and a handful of polish counties. Since he's in India he's out of diplomatic range, so I can't assassinate or plot to kill him. Hopefully he doesn't show up with a 200k army. >_>

"Sell your scrip and buy a sword" wasn't meant to be taken literally then
?In all seriousness though, that event doesn't make much sense. Maybe they should change it to a militaristic Old Testament prophet.

In hebrew, Joshua and Jesus is the same name, and also when the old testament was translated to greek it used the same spelling as we know from the more known Jesus: Ιησους. So you might just take military advice as military advice from Joshua - one of the most brutal figures in the Old testament.
I doubt it. He won't be able to walk his troops all the way to Poland so he will probably just stand there until he loses.
He ended up having 30k troops in total. 11k magically teleported to the edge of my borders while the rest are indeed AFK in India. Pretty silly.

The modifier should be "Jesus gives business advice" and you get +20 stewardship. Then again, maybe Jesus wasn't such a good businessman because he left it to wander the country.
Her husband probably promoted the nickname to mask the fact that he is the one really in charge of the kingdom.
Wait, what?
He's never going to act on it, but he would like the theoretical right to do so
