[QUOTE="Psyckosama, post: 813826, member: 9184"] Maybe I didn't make it clear... you still have to make the confermation roll. Lets add the modifiers... Normal roll needed (no counting critical sucess)... 15+3(con)+2(nursing)+1(age)=21... she need a critical... lets apply it to the confermation test... DC10 (didn't mention this) + 6... she needs to roll above a 16 this time. okay... now what do we have... 1/20 x 4/20 = 2/400 or 1/100 So she has a 1 in 100 chance of getting pregnant with the stats you gave. Will that woman have a baby with what you gave? No bloody likely. Now, lets try a normal woman, no birthcontrol who doesn't WANT a baby but is not adverse to the idea... Lets say she's age 25 with 10 con She has no con bonus and a + 1 for her age. She has to roll over a 14, and after that, over a 9... lets see... 6/20 x 11/20... a solid 17% chance. Now, lets try you normal PC level character... lets say a level 5 half-elf mage with 12 con. +1 for her con. now say she's in the optimal age of fertility giving her a +1 as a half elf she's between human and elf making her a member of a low fertility race giving her a -2 now lets reasonably she's been knee deep in dungeon muck for the last week (not exactly an enviroment where you git jiggy with it) a -1 for only 2 weeks of activity. Now, finally, as a responcible woman who is not dumbass enough to rish pregancy with her profression, she uses magical contraception 5/2 + 1 = 3.5... lets boot that up to a 4 by rounding. first roll = 15 - 1 - 1 + 2 + 2 + 4.... 21... only on a crit. Now with the second roll we remove the situational modifiers, as it repersents not if she concieved but it the conception takes (IE: she's not just "late") Second rold (if we get said crit) 10 - 2 + 2 = DC10... Her health and youthfulness cancle out her racial infertility. So, 1/20 x 10/20 = or about 3% chance of pregency... contraception works, but it's not totally idiot proof. There is still a chance even if your careful. One more... lets say a lady paladin, slightly past her prime who has found her soulmate and is ready to retire... No old yet, but pst her prime... +0 A fighting class, so a high con is likely, lets say a 16... +3 She wants a child and they're trying. +2 She [i]really[/i] wants a baby so she has a level 12 cleric friend cast a fertility spell on her... +7 1st 15 - 12 = DC3 2nd 10 -3 = DC7 17/20 x 13/20 = a massive 55% [/QUOTE]
