How is pregnancy handled on Winters Edge?
First, let me say that Winter’s Edge will never, never, make a PC pregnant by staff fiat. That’s not how we work. In a world where wishes can come true, it stands to reason that there are both magical and alchemical means to prevent unwanted pregnancy. PCs will be assumed to be using precautions unless they specify otherwise, as described below. Second, if you decide your PC is pregnant, you need to +qmail DMstaff with the conception date. We will give you an appropriate date of birth based on your race, and will +stnote such information on you. If you wish us to determine gender or the possibility of multiple births, we will; otherwise, it’s up to you. This must also be +stnoted. (Within reason – multiple births are almost unheard of among elves and dwarves, and rare among all other races.)
