Overview

add_doctrine is a command that can add a new doctrine to a specific faith. It is an integral part of CK3's religious system and enables players to hone and craft the faith of their subjects.

How to Use

When you input add_doctrine [doctrine id] [faith id], it will add the particular doctrine (specified by [doctrine id]) to the faith that is associated with the [faith id] you provide.

If you use the command without specifying a faith id, the game will default to adding the doctrine to the faith of your character.

Adding a new doctrine can have a variety of impacts on the game depending on what the doctrine is.

For example, it could determine the moral standards and customs of the faith, whether priests can marry, crime laws, and other tenets that dramatically influence how that faith is practiced.

This command offers a great way to customize your faith and implement new ways of controlling or guiding your realm.

Doctrines

Doctrines are specific beliefs and practices that define each faith. They determine what is allowed and what is forbidden within a faith.

There are five main types of doctrines: main doctrines, marriage doctrines, crime doctrines, clerical doctrines, and special doctrines.

These doctrines can cover a wide range of issues, including views on marriage, gender equality, criminal behavior, and the role of religious leaders.

Faiths

Faith dictates multiple aspects of life and can be a great help or a hindrance to your plans. Each faith belongs to a religion, and each character in the game follows a faith.

Faiths determine a character's moral compass, their views on other faiths, their rituals, and their holy sites. They can influence everything from laws and relationships to what actions are considered sinful or virtuous.

How to Open the Command Console

In CK3, cheats are executed from the command console, a text box that you type commands into.

To open the command console press the ~ (tilde) key, which is typically located under ESC (escape).

If your keyboard does not have that key, or pressing ~ does not work, try the following keys:

  • ~
  • SHIFT + 2
  • SHIFT + 3

Type your command into the console, and then press ENTER .
