Description
Witchcraft
Witchcraft mod introduces a lot of new content and an additional layer of gameplay for witch lords. It includes new events, items, decisions, interactions and rules related to the theme of witchcraft, including many fantasy elements and its own magic mechanics. Powerful powers and dark secrets await those who dare to reach for them...


New Opportunities
The mod comes with new lifestyle and two perks trees. The mechanics of developing trees are made according to a different philosophy than other lifestyles. Each tree requires unlocking the associated focus, with unlocking the Sorcery tree may be a challenge. True magic is a powerful tool, but only a few are able to wield it.


Magical Artifacts
There are eight magical artifacts in the world that can open the way to true magic and endow you with unique powers. Remember that such an item is priceless to every witch, and many of them want to acquire it at any cost.


New Threats
Being a witch is not easy. Even in vanilla, in most places in the world it is stigmatized and can be a reason for imprisonment and execution. Now witches also have to face witch hunters and other witches, including ruthless sorcerers. Using powerful magic can also attract the attention of the inhabitants of the abyss... Be prepared for further dangers, both physical and magical.

@WolfWhiteFire, When you declared war, did you not chose Artifact retrieval as the war goal?

I picked them some random faith that fit at least a little bit. Basically, they should have no religion at all, or have some special one. Maybe someday I'll do something about it.

@ryciebani666 Why do most demons have the Slovianskan faith when summoned?

You have deduced well what is happening. The game doesn't always handle the succession of artifacts, especially when there is no direct heir. Some items may disappear.
Of course, I can't let magical artifacts be lost for silly reasons. If the game detects that there are less than 8 magic artifacts at the beginning of the year, it will generate the missing one. Technically it is a copy, but of course we consider the lost artifact to have been found by someone else. Unfortunately, in that case the claim is lost.

Lilith is a demon and a woman. I guess that explains everything :D I hope Merlin comforted you xd

I took Lilith as a lover, she went and killed whomever she wanted, she kept asking for money and other favors, in the end she just used me and left. WHY, we had a good thing going on :steamsad:
I ended up marring Merlin instead, he's been in my court for 80 years.

Out of curiosity, how do the artifacts here work with the possibility of being lost on succession? Bael stole my Dragonscales, the scheme to take them back would take ten years and almost certainly fail, and he was very close to me as my nemesis (not sure why) with a giant army (that was a surprise), so I just murdered him instead. Afterwards, his heir did not get the Dragonscales, and I no longer have a claim on them.

I don't actually care that much about it, it is nice, but I have other options for arcane magic, and since artifacts can cease to exist upon succession, I am mostly curious how that works with these.

My guess would be maybe that if selected, that artifact disappears, but a copy randomly appears in the possession of some other character (and since it is a copy and not technically the same one as far as code is concerned, that is why it vanished from my claims), but it is also possible that they might just genuinely cease to exist, or that something else happened.

Baba Yaga must be a really cool grandma ;]
I remember that I once married her, later she became my nemesis. And then this event with suspected infidelity: 'Do you have another, Baba Yaga?' :D

Yes, artifacts are just one way to unlock magic. Although it's often simpler to get them than source trait - well, and artifacts have their benefits too ;p

You can use magic without an artifact, there is an event for it. I'm pretty sure there is also a congenital trait that lets you do the same.So even without an artifact you can get clapped.

What an amazing mod. After I basically ignored it for 200 hours, I am now being trained by Merlin to become a Mage. I am the granddaughter of Baba Yaga. I was born with Super Natural Abilities after some random lord that hooked up with my mum almost destroyed the entire realm.

Secret tip: Baba Yaga spawns with 3 daughters, really High quality Wives

Haha! I just assumed there's no flag to check whether he actually has the thing or not. Maybe there could be an alternate outcome if he doesn't? It would be really cool if he could send you an angry note about it since he's usually so smug :)
