Effects

For an owner who can't benefit from it

The template gives these instead of the effects above when its “can benefit” check fails:

Who can benefit (can_benefit) (1 line of game script)
has_religion = religion:finno_ugric_religion

As written in game/common/artifacts/templates (relic_finno_ugric_template).

Counts as a holy relic for (is_holy_relic) (6 lines of game script)
OR = {
	religion = religion:finno_ugric_religion
	main_rite = {
		rite_has_parameter = unreformed_syncretic_actor
	}
}

As written in game/common/artifacts/templates (relic_finno_ugric_template).

History and who has it

  • Made before recorded history.

How it is made

The game creates it with the scripted effect create_artifact_kantele_effect. In the console (how to open it), this gives it to the character you play:

effect create_artifact_kantele_effect = { OWNER = root }

Built from the effect's file; not run in the game by us.
