[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 3985259, member: 29398"] OK, I'd better clarify: the game needs something like this only [B]done well[/B]... :) Some earlier posts point out things that were useful. Some others that'd be handy: 1. Chance of pregnancy by race per x-amount of time for sexually active females 2. Chance of infertility by race and gender 3. Tables by race to determine what a pregnancy will result in, covering gender, number (twins? triplets?), stillbirth or miscarriage, deformity, etc. 4. Charts determining how the base stats of the parents affect the base stats of the offspring 5a. Charts and tables defining once and for all what can interbreed with what, and why; and how genetic taints work (if Human Grandpa slept with a Dryad and they had Mum, and Grandma's Elven mother had a dalliance with Zeus producing Grandma who then got together with part-Orc Grand-dad and had my father; then what is my racial makeup and how does it affect me as a played character?) 5b. Tables by race giving chance of being tainted, with what, and by how much For my own games I've already had to do some of 3 and all of 5a and 5b above; I usually wing 1 and ignore 2; I've never had to worry about 4 but I know a fellow DM who has. But it'd be nice to see in a well-written book; it'd have saved me a boatload of time and effort. :) Lanefan [/QUOTE]
