Description:

This is a slimmed-down version of Folkvang’s mod, updated for 1.5.*

See the discussions section for their original explanation of the changes. As they were based on a non-trivial amount of historical research, I will not be adding them directly to the description here, as this is intended to only be a functional update (to allow users to access the mod in 1.5.*).

Note that Witchcraft is also updated to be Shunned rather than Criminal, due to a less dogmatic (though not fully trusting) approach to differing philosophies.

See Folkvang’s mod for the origins of this one

Summary of Changes

New Virtues: Brave, Generous, Arrogant, Diligent, One Eyed, Poet, Ambitious (from Pursuit of Power)

New Sins: Craven, Deceitful, Humble, Lazy, Content (from Pursuit of Power)

Doctrine Changes: Clerical Doctrine changed to Lay Clergy
Witchcraft Criminal changed to Witchcraft Shunned

Tenet Changes: Warmonger replaced with Pursuit of Power

Berserker: A knight whose religion has ANY of the following tenets can become a Berserker:

Warmonger
Pursuit of Power
Gruesome Festivals

This will result in some non-Norse Berserkers (there are a handful of existing religions – most notably Tengriism – which have Warmonger), but also allows the player more flexibility in reforming Asatru and forming Hybrid cultures.
