[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 7562274, member: 11697"] I'm not sure why you'd receive any toxic feedback for this particular question. The topic in general is covered in enough published content such that it isn't anything out of the blue. For this specific case it really depends on how you personally would characterize both A'kin and Shemeshka in your campaigns. Their nature, alignment, goals, and history. I know what my answer would be for both of them, but admittedly I'm holding all the answers to those questions quite close to my chest still at this point in the storyhour (and God do I love speculation on it!). It depends also on the reach of the particular wish and any restrictions (ie by the book or a little more fluid). A carefully worded wish could really play havoc with that kid regardless of the 25 year prohibition. Plus when has a 'loth -ever- played by the terms of a deal without finagling their way into warping it to Gehenna and back ten times over for the sheer malevolent whimsy of it all? It could be made into a decades long game, or it could be made into a horror story for all involved, especially the offspring. I don't see Shemmy leaving any such offspring alive unless they played very specific roles in her own plans. And the deal said nothing about the dead or living status of the other parent. She'd probably kill them to ensure that the parentage of the child wasn't known, even to the kid. As for A'kin? Who knows anything specific about him. [/QUOTE]
