Almost all of these types of games, with gender specific romance options, tend to at least eventually have mods that add same-sex romance options to characters with gender limited romance. Yet Pathfinder: Kingmaker does not have such a mod. Even though it's been over 4 months since the games release. Shortly after the games release I did some crude save editing, trying to find a way to add new feats to my character, but also just experimenting with different things to change. Temporarily changing gender messed up the appearance of my character, but allowed me to have the first romance dialogue with Valerie. With her seeing my originally female character, now a deformed male character, as female. I didn't play the game any further than that, so I don't know how romance "tags" work. But, I'm guessing there are two possibilities. 1. The game always checks your gender when in a dialogue. This means that to have a gay relationship with Valerie, either the player would have to be changed to male in every other way except appearance (there's no player who would play as the deformed male/female character I created by messing with the save game.) Or Valerie's romance tags should be changed from: if male than romance, to, if female than romance. 2. The game may only check the gender when starting the "relationship" with Valerie. Meaning that gay romance would be possible even with my crude save editing method. In this case the game would, after the first dialogue option, just check a value like "Has started romance with Valerie." I'd say the first one is the more likely one, and if so, well beyond my abilities to mod. So does anyone know of a way to have same-sex romance with Valerie, or Tristian?

To do this, you'll need either the paid Cheat Happens trainer or a free Cheat Engine table for Pillars of Eternity. Google is your friend. As far as I know, console commands can't change race, but if they can then that should work as well. Step 1: Get the trainer or Cheat Engine working. Step 2: Change your race to any non-godlike race. This will not change your appearance, but it will unlock the helmet slot. Step 3: Equip any helmet. Step 4: Change your race back to your original Godlike race. The helmet slot will be locked out, but you are still wearing the hat, and gain all it's bonuses. Please Note: Parts of the Godlike head is actually "hair", so most hats and helmets remove those excotic parts. Horns are always part of the head, and remain visible. Thankfully the Death Godlike growths are part of the "hair". Death Godlikes have red eyes and it seems that their faces are complete, even though we were never meant to see them. Ears on the other hand are incorrectly flesh colored. Flavor text: Fire Godlikes will always have horns poking out from the helmet, but that doesn't bother me. I think my elf bodied female Fire Godlike looks rather cute in that hood. And if your worried about going against the established lore, you could imagine that the hood on your Fire Godlike is made from fire retardant cloth, and that there are holes for the horns to stick out. Originally I wanted to play a human looking Death Godlike, and created a human character and then changed my race and added the Death Godlike ability, and this seemed to work. Unfortunately, since leveling your character is a variation of the chracter creation, it automatically changes your appearance to the correct race. I think you could circumvent this by always changing your race back to human before leveling your character, to keep your human appearance, and afterwards change back to Godlike. Why Would You Do This: Quite frankly, most of the Godlike heads are not pleasant to look at. Compare that rather attractive female Fire Godlike portrait to the actual heads, and you'll see the point that quite many have made. Or maybe you'd like to get the helmet bonuses, for gameplay purposes. Anyway this is basically cheating. Sometimes, mods just aren't the answer.
