Ecumenical Elopement

Overview

This is a simple mod that removes an illogical obstacle to storytelling and gameplay. Normally it is impossible to elope with characters of a different religion. That makes very little sense since the whole idea of the scheme is for two characters to fall in love and get married against the approval of family, society, or good judgement. Removing this obstacle opens up interesting storytelling/gameplay possibilities, especially when playing as a small religion, heresy, or crusader state.

What does this mod do?

Different faith will no longer prevent you from initiating an elopement scheme unless the target is zealous. In that case, a penalty will be applied in proportion to the hostility between the two faiths. You still have to overcome the targets’s natural dislike of your religion to gain the lover/soulmate status.

Compatibility

This is a small and low-impact mod so it should work with almost anything. It would require a patch to work correctly with any mod that also modifies the elopement acceptance modifier.
