Description:

The Zealot is a modded unique agent who specialises in using Holy Orders to propagate the spread of his God’s influence. He can only be spawned at the seat of a Holy Order, NOT a coven.

Starting with the ‘Corrupt Piety’ trait, The Zealot permanently reduces his starting Holy Order’s alignment and becomes their prophet (until death). Further, his unique abilities are designed to use his Holy Order to spread and create shadow in otherwise pure (or impure) regions.

In addition to Corrupt Piety, as with all other agents you can also select a separate additional trait on start for The Zealot. Along with its passive bonuses however, each starting trait provides the Zealot with an additional challenge/ritual unique to that trait as well.

Lots of thanks to Bobby for his code (which I stole liberally from) and Doopliss who has been a great help as always when it comes to bug fixing and testing.

Additionally, all the ”custom” icons used in this mod come from the game Darkest Dungeon. I do this as homage, rights to the art goes to Redhook Studios.

Known issues:
– The ‘Pervert Scripture’ challenge only influences the Zealot’s starting holy order, even when used in the domain of another holy order.
– Game very rarely crashes whenever the Zealot is used alongside dwarves or elves. This may be fixed in the future, but I rarely (if ever) play with them on, so don’t get your hopes up.
– The ‘Corrupt Piety’ trait does not apply its effects upon recruitment, only after a turn has passed since. It otherwise works perfectly well.
– The ‘Cult Following’ trait bonus applies after the turn. This leads to some challenges taking a turn longer than they should to complete.
– The mod says that it is incompatible with the current version when using the dlc. Ignore it, my boi works perfectly fine in the current version (bugs excluded), I’m just too lazy to change it.
