- What if the owner can't benefit from Ceremonial Khanda?
- They get Court grandeur baseline +3 instead.

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) (3 lines of game script)
hindu_or_syncretic_with_eastern_trigger = {
CHARACTER = root
}As written in game/common/artifacts/templates (branch_hinduism_template).
Counts as a holy relic for (is_holy_relic) (6 lines of game script)
OR = {
religion = religion:hinduism_religion
main_rite = {
rite_has_parameter = eastern_syncretic_actor
}
}As written in game/common/artifacts/templates (branch_hinduism_template).
History and who has it
- Made before recorded history.
How it is made
The game creates it with the scripted effect create_artifact_khanda_effect. In the console (how to open it), this gives it to the character you play:
effect create_artifact_khanda_effect = { OWNER = root }Built from the effect's file; not run in the game by us.
