[QUOTE="Death By Surfeit, post: 1042124, member: 8646"] Loren and Sorn: The rules on childbirth that I decided upon (and it took an awful lot of deliberating) are designed, as much as anything else, to be a compromise. Higher-level PCs have a definite advantage when undergoing childbirth and are far less likely to suffer complications, but the act still dehabilitates them as much as it does a commoner - this way, I feel elements of the board on both sides can feel kind of satisfied. Besides, balance is the route to eudamonia, as virtue theory fans will know. DarkSoldier: I kept the child's attributes roll for v2.0, and it can be found toward the bottom of the Guide posted. See Table X-XX: Variation and the paragraph above for the full rules. Picaboo: Thanks for testing the Guide and offering your thoughts. Our current handle on male gratification is that their lower DCs offset the Recovery period statistically, although you are right in that whilst men come off best at lower skill levels, women do better at higher ones. A determined or patient character, though, should be able to overcome this. Your idea may bear utility as an optional rule, though, but would need the mechanics to be a little more specific. Brevdravis, I was going to leave it until after spells were done, but perhaps you'd like to have a shot at the Diseases section? I like the ones in the DbS conversion far too much to go over them myself (must keep self-interest in check), and you seem the right man to do so. Speaking of spells, how are you doing, VVrayven? It has come to that point in the Guide's progression, and the board seems free to discuss whatever you've come up with. Cheers, DbS [/QUOTE]
