Why does Baelor Blacktyde worship the Drowned God?

[Timjames]

In ASOIAF, one of the few things we know about Baelor Blacktyde is that he worshipped the Faith of the Seven as a result of spending eight years in Oldtown. In fact that's part of why he gets killed.

With this in mind, why is he listed in the "A clash of Kings" bookmark as worshipping the Drowned God? He should be listed as following The Faith Of The Seven.

This would be a database mistake, noted thanks!

I think someone deliberately changed it several versions ago, unless you redid history. I remember in the much older versions it was correct.

Just checked and Baelor is already correctly changed to faith of the seven in 8295 (that is unless you start a game after resigning from another)

As a matter of interest, why do you change religion using an effect? Doing it with a history command seems to work just as well, and has other benefits (off the top of my head: shows up on the character selection screen, shows up even when the character died prior to the chosen start date, applies to courtiers spawned on startup).

Historically there have been glitches changing religion via history command. Whilst it may be OK atm I'd rather be safe and keep it in an effect = { }, you never know what Paradox might break in the future
