How to make new Precepts (or even Memes)

Hi everybody,

Love the new DLC, but I figured that the nature focused Memes could use a supplement that was less "Hippie".
I therefore wanna make a hunting precept that gives positive thoughts when hunting and one that finds ranching an abomination.
I also would like to make bonding with animals a positive thing (hunting animals like dogs and wolves) without going vegetarian.
On this note, i would also like to be able to have rituals be able to trigger animal migration in order to call in prey.

My qustion is if anyone either have a template for new precepts handy, or if they can help me setting it up.

Fluff/My idea:
Consider a tribe of Hunters, venerating the wolf (or other predators) and the hunt. They look down on crop growth, but are completely against ranching as animals, especially prey, should roam free.
Their specialist is the Hunter (ranged) and the Crafter that turn the Gifts of the Wild into tools and clothing.
They have a ritual that can summon a migrating herd of prey (which balace wise can help them through a hard winter but lore wise also seems awesome with a drum circle that kicks off The Hunt).

Semirelated: Im setting up an Artemis Cult with female superiority - Think the Huntresses from AC Odessy. Could be cool with a precept that can forbid one gender from specific roles. I know, I can do it manually and roleplay it, but I think it could be a nice addition to the DLC.

Thanks in advance

Maybe take a look at

and analyse how that mod auther did it.

Uhh, thats a good start. I can sometimes reverse-engineer a bit, so I'll give it a look.

Completly unrelated question: are you by any chance scandinavian? I have gotten that vibe in earlier threads. I apologize for my curiousity.


Addition: Just looked through the code. Seems a bit beyond my level of understanding. So its not going to be an easy implementation
