Schizophrenia? I'm appearently complaining to myself that a (heterosexual) countess is seducing my (homosexual) wife :/
And yeah, I stole the pope's hat and using it as a crown

While trying to unravel the tangled love lives of my court, I discovered that my sister's husband's concubine's lover had given birth to a botchling
(sorry she is a bit small)
This is their third child together, which in itself is quite a feat, as father lives in Portugal and mother in Norway!

This is all the AI's depravity btw. My dynasty has something like 500+ living members. I wasn't even aware this little enclave existed until I started looking through the character finder to see who all the landed people in my family are.

First time I notice this. In this event :
the Jester says : "Fils de pute. My luck is rotten". But do you know what "fils de pute" means in French ? Son of a b**ch.

There is a whole section of localised curses in the game! They use "fils de pute" in all European languages, except for French where they replace it with "mordiable", which I have no idea what that means and google doesn't either.First time I notice this. In this event :

mordiable?
No idea - moddable? mort-iable? (mort is 'death' of course)
Very odd, but of course PDX's localization is notoriously poor (there's a separate thread on it now); I think they use Babelfish!

There is apparently some localized swearing in some Royal Court events, like in my previous post about libertine literature in this thread you can find polish "Niech mnie diabli" (lit. "may the devils take me", or "I'll be damned" for short)

@tsr-aph @m0xxY you made me curious as well. From what I can gather "mordiable" is an outdated and somewhat obscure medieval version of "merde" (in the sense of "damn it", I think, it sounds a little weird to me to use it as "shit" but I'll grant you that I'm no 12th century Frenchman). I didn't find it on an English search engine, but a French search gave some results (https://www.topito.com/top-insultes-moyen-age-langue-francaise-sale-coquebert). I'm pleasantly surprised ^^
Edit: I haven't looked at the etymology, but my guess would be that it comes from "mort" (death), as you said, and "diable" (devil).

Promoting Asceticism among everyone else so it's easier to win at materialism?
I think it's the name. The new religion is called Justinian, and the patriarchs name is the Greek version of "Justinian".
It's about me calling the religion Justinianism, after my reformer (Ioustinianos).
And the game then selecting -yet another- Ioustinianos as leader of all Ioustinians.
