[QUOTE="Centaur, post: 880102, member: 11822"] At the risk of censorship or having this thread removed, I have a question of opinion to ask of everyone. As the heading would indicate, it has to do with the use of Polymorph spells and Sex. Please people, lets keep it clean, Here is the question. For the Purpose of argument, we'll keep the discussion to the use of [b]Polymorph Other[/b]. [b]First[/b], can a person under the effects of a polymorph spell become pregnant? For example: 1) A Female Elf is Polymorphed into a female Gnome. 2) A male human is Polymorphed into a female human. In either of these cases, could the person become pregnant? [b]Second[/b], Could a person induce pregnancy while under the effects of a polymorph spell? For example: 3) A Male Elf polymorphed into a Male Gnome. 4) A Female Human Polymorphed into a Male Human. In either of these cases, could the person induce pregnancy? If pregnancy is possible under 1 or 2 above, what would happen to the fetus when the spell is reversed? What happens to the child when the pregnancy comes to term? [b]Third[/b], what happens to an existing fetus when Polymorph is cast onto someone who is already pregnant? Is the person protected from the effects by some mystical force to protect the child or is the fetus subject to the same transformation as the mother (i.e.. transformed to a fetal version of what mom is transformed into)? Or is it not? What happens to the child if the pregnancy goes to term while under the influence of the pregnancy? [b]Fourth[/b], what if the form the person is polymorphed into is of a different [u]Type[/u] than that of the persons natural form. For example, a humanoid is transformed into a giant or a dragon. We already know from the rules that Dragons and some Outsiders can assume compatible forms to breed with humans etc., what about the other way around or is this a factor of their supernatural existence or power? How would you run this in your own campaign? Are there rules concerning it anywhere? Has it ever been discussed before? [/QUOTE]
