The undead stillborn godling fetus kind.And I have to say it's quite disheartening to hear that some people have such difficulty dissociating the real world from a game of pretend. The entire point of the game to experience a character who is not yourself, doing things that you yourself would not or cannot do. Perhaps it is because I am DM more often than not, but I routinely "play" evil characters and I have no problems having them do immoral things, the same way a writer or a director would have no problems having a character in a story do evil things despite (hopefully) having moral compulsions against actually doing immoral things in real life.However, this problem is easily remediable: If you do not wish to kill "baby" creatures because you feel it is against your characters morality, feel free to let them live and adopt them, send them to an orphanage, or another caretaker of your choice. As for any character who does not feel that way, they have stats because they are significantly more dangerous than a normal full-grown human.</blockquote>
