PSA Buying Tretinoin in Canada

I bought adapalene from the grey market (Canadian Glow) here in Canada as you can't get it OTC (unlike in the US) but was fairly expensive 94$.

I went through Felix to get the Rx but the price for their creams (especially the adapalene) was really expensive. Thankfully, Felix does allow you to the send Rx to an external pharmacy. There was a post saying that the Retin-A-cream was around 20$. I got mine for around 25ish at Costco compared to Felix's 33$.

Hope this helps another Canadian out there wanting to get more affordable retinoids.

Lawrence Kraft (Spice and Wolf)

In preparation for Silk and Silver, can anyone take up the challenge of making this character? If people want to make Holo as well, I've added pictures of her.

Budai

I was wondering if anyone can help improve or make Budai?

His current DNA I've made so far as seen in the screenshots:

I tried to make the most evil religion possible. It was way too much fun.

Wanted to try Maitreya and made it a bit more evil and synergistic. This religion is so fun just attacking people, executing them and destroying the cranial trophies. This leads to people getting more pissed off and attacking you further. Add the Claim the Mantle of Maitreya and you'll be everyone's target.

The only tenet I wasn't so sure of was the Ritual Suicide. Works well for Mandala governments but can possibly have another tenet for other government types. I would have liked Sacred Murders but it automatically takes up another tenet slot because of the other requirements. I have tried human sacrifices but the synergy with cranial trophies is kind of meh...

What other tenet would people suggest? Looking forward to when the By God Alone update hits.

*Edit

Yes, I'll make divorce illegal, gay marriage illegal, etc. in a future reiteration of this faith. Adultery is obviously accepted.

-shitcrusaderkingssay.

As for the rationale for the choices: As someone commented most are evil by medieval faith standards. The choice for monogamy was generally preventing game slowdown when the dynasty gets too big. The equality doctrine has more to do access to knights for both genders

Unique Mandala Character Poses?

Was trying the Destruction Aspect when I was trying to create the Dai Viet Empire. I thought it was pretty cool that the character has a unique pose after obtaining the 2nd level aspect. I've always tried the the Creation Aspect and sadly there were no new poses. I couldn't find this pose in the barbershop.

Anyone know if the Serenity or the Trickery Aspects have these? I was going to try serenity aspect but made the mistake of starting off as an empire level character.... It was impossible to fulfill the alliance requirement.

New Age Mechanics and Mandala Governments Downgrade on Devotion on Succession

I needed to stop my Mandala world domination run around a month or two back because dying as I had an heir with Frail Bones and Faltering Heart kept me from retaining the devotion levels. I have tried reloading the save and tried everything but it seems to always lead to reducing the devotion. For anyone wondering dying from stress from the heart failure is not considered a proper Mandala death. IIRC, I have also tried getting the Know Thyself perk and it still led to a downgrade in devotion.

Has anyone else experienced this and does anyone know if this has been fixed?
