[QUOTE="Herzog, post: 5099545, member: 25696"] I have two groups with (upcoming) IC children. One where the party rogue tended to win over potential protectors with her body. She ended up pregnant of a Beastman (Rules Cyclopedia D&D) and has just past the three months pregnant line. She's been using some old pregnancy and mood swings tables I dug up several years ago. Unfortunately, the campaign has only one or two sessions a year (VERY slow campaign, but still running....) so I'm not sure when or if that baby is every going to see the light of day. In the other group, the party cleric (interestingly enough, the same player as in the other campaign....) picked up a couple of kobold kids (respectively 3 and 5 months old). I've been tracking their aging process, but have kept them out of harms way for most of the time, unless the party directs their attention to them. They form interesting comic relief, especially when combined with 'Uncle Brutagh', the incredible stupid Half-Ogre barbarian, who tends to play with them a lot. Regardless of circumstances. (he once decided to play hide-and-seek near the entrance of a yet unexplored abandoned temple entrance, and nearly got them killed in the process) My suggestion is to let the PC take the lead in how to deal with the kid. It is a liability, but it's only fun when the PC handles accordingly. It's no fun when the PC ignores the kid, the kid gets killed, and you play on. [/QUOTE]
