[QUOTE="ARandomGod, post: 2361447, member: 17296"] Of course commoners never get access to it from the purchasing side. But I see the nobility and adventurers potentially using it all the time. And they do not us it on each other! No, why would they? Mid to high level fighter female pregnant? Hire a commoner to finish the term. Royalty? They invented the wet nurse, this is just one step farther. However, most of the non-evil scenario's I can see one of the targets is a commoner. The one getting the new baby, of course. Sure it could be two adventurers, two females in a party, one is dying and there is no spell preped to save that life, but this spell (for some reason) was prepared and it can save the baby's life... well, no, I don't buy that. What's the spell designed for if not to help nobility not have to bear children? Possibly the occassional evil child thief? I suppose that's possible. And it's alternative. An unconcious subject is automatically considered willing, we could have someone transfer an early pregnancy INTO a noble female, who would then have it transferred out, and now your progeny is the one noted as the heir apparent. Nice. But even with the DC20 saves, I suppose really all that happens is the pregnancy fails, and if you do this within the first couple of weeks or so, it's easy just to get pregnant again next month. I imagine there are fertility spells in abundance for the idle wealthy. Heck, with the proper fertility spell, you could get several children at one time, and attempt to transfer them all to a commoner. Some will fail but so what? Also what if the 'mother' doesn't really care if the child lives or dies? It's a slightly more expensive abortion spell (or possibly the only one?) and it doesn't have near the taint of just killing the child. Perhaps there's a spell with an even higher save DC for the discriminating customer? [/QUOTE]
