People can put her on ignore, which could take care of option 3.

Other than that, the Elders can't remove from her the options to stir the peasants or auto da fe. However, doesn't that make sense? If someone comes in an illiterate village dressed as a SA priest and speak of the Bloodstars in a semi-cogent fashion, the peasants will just assume she's the real thing.

Realms can order her arrest. You can arrest all priests of realms you are at war with, even if they are of your own religion. Her own realm could ban her if they were so inclined (I don't think they are, but that's valid IC play).

I agree that a mechanism to boot a priest would be nice to have. However the situation is not so hopeless right now. There are things that all sides can do, if they're willing to do it.

Only elders can claim regions, and I thought only they can auto da fe as well? And you can't auto da fe a faithful lord or knight.

However, you can't arrest her either: arresting a SA priest in a realm with lots of SA followers will cause massive region stat drops realm-wide. And you won't even get to ban the priest in question, so as soon as she is out, she can come back. I'm sure torturing Jonsu would yield plenty of goodies, however.

LN could ban her, if we can find a way to convince them to. :P

Or she could listen to Rabisu and repent!

Also maybe water could stop being wet, up could become down, Glaumring could become a bastion of cool logic and sanity, etc.

We act like SA is trapped with Jonsu the priestess...but it's actually Jonsu who is trapped as a priestess for SA. From this point forward, she can't leave the priest class without risking excommunication. The player seems like they will have to commit to Jonsu becoming a lunatic priest who everyone tolerates, found her a religion, or abandon SA to allow Jonsu to command a unit.

I was just thinking this as well. Considering that she has 0% chance of becoming Regent now even if the secularists install 3 supporting Consuls (which honestly is what I thought her next move would be) her only options are to either 1) rescind her claims, 2) schism, or 3) perpetually rant, rave and otherwise troll every letter from an Elder, claiming that she has "removed them from office".

Unfortunately for everyone on the full members channel I suspect she'll go with 3, though I suppose 2 is an option once she gets bored.

I'm hoping she's building up for option 2.

Asylon has made quite the strategic gain, if they can hold on to it.  Farronites declare war on Astrum.

That duchy is looking awfully phallic. Astrum's really getting screwed.

Putting Glaumring as lord is the finishing touch.
