The Schism: A 13th Age RP Campaign

I was curious to see what The Book of Erotic Fantasy had to say about... several things.  Crossbreeding and pregnancy.  And also just because I find it one of the most... amusing books in existence.

Neo, you'd be glad to know that dragons can crossbreed with literally everything.  They also have a base appearance score of +2 to +4, depending on race.  Although, "Good dragons tend to be more attractive with clean, glistening scales. Evil dragons generally neglect their looks and often smell bad."  BoER throwin' some shade.  "The half-dragon template from Core Rulebook III can be applied to any corporeal creature.  This demonstrates that dragons aren't selective regarding species...  They enjoy sex both for the act and for the interesting crossbred results."  "Dragons are unique in that their eggs require specific environments in order to survive - for instance, red dragon eggs must be placed in abysmal heat...  Nondragon mothers that mate with dragons find that they are drawn to similar environments."

Gnomes are kind of all over the place in terms of cross-breeding potential, but generally "no."  Excepting dragons and celestials and the other special races.  Sprites are anything but giants and lizardfolk.  Base chance of pregnancy are... 15% for gnomes... 100% for sprites (****).

"Sprites:
For most sprites, love is like morning dew: sweet and fresh, but evaporating quickly.  The enjoy the heady exhilaration of being in love and the rending despair of falling out of love or being abandoned.  It's all good."  On the plus side they suffer less negative effects from pregnancy.

"Gnomes:
Gnomes like sex."  It really doesn't get better past that first sentence.  It's a downhill slope.  And not a gentle incline.  They're the race that invented the DnD equivalent of the Kama Sutra.  They're the unholy combination of rabbits and bonobos.  Oh, God.

In this campaign powerful dragons can take on a mortal form, which is what they would definitely be using when crossbreeding. So Aeva could be dating a dragon who presents himself as a pixie, if Neo is so inclined to make it that way. Aeva would have live children, not eggs. With a pregnant dragon it depends on what form they're in at the time. And the children become the same race as the non-draconic parent, but apparently resemble whatever appearance the draconic parent had at the time.

Seren, for example, did not hatch, but was born. Her father was an elf, and so she has the appearance of one, but shares many facial features with her mother's chosen mortal form.

Aeva could have adorable pixie dragonspawn. What a sweet thought. Can Seren be the godmother?

Spydvinge will get beaten up again if he tries to get between either Aeva and her dragon boyfriend or Seren and her dragon husband.

But what about the spoony bard? They need love too.... ;-;

Ohh good for him in getting the elf queen

I'm sorry X.

Also, Lurk, you really want to test the party's patience don't you. I have a feeling Speed is going to get beaten up a lot in this campaign.

It's not your fault dragon Sama. Just well kinda of hits upon a swore spot when this stuff happens. It's one of the reasons why I get so involved with everything because we'll when stuff like this happens it kinda of brings up these feelings but you can't really solve this because d20 isn't your site and I kinda of have a laptop but it's the house laptop and I pretty sure they wouldn't appreciate the fact I am using it for games. (Kinda of why I use my tablet for everything because if something happens at least it's on my personal device.)

That and well recently got a new tablet because the old one was getting to a point that it was becoming unusable it's a really nice tablet and was pretty cheap plus picked up a Bluetooth keyboard and that makes typing and posting sooooooooooo much easier. So not really looking to shell out money for a laptop anytime soon.

But hey there's nothing I can really do about it right now.

I was reading more about the icons, so... Since we're liable to meet her soon, is there any particular decorum to meeting The Priestess a paladin should know? Other than "no, Karth, no."

As for the icon relations to each other... Specifically, how the Church sees the others. Tell me if I've got it right.
Friends with the Archmage
Respectful to TGGW
Neutral to the Elf, Dorfking, Druid, and Dragons?
Not too keen on Shadow the Princehog
Super-big-time-unfriends with The Crusader and Lich King
And... officially aligned with the Emperor, but with a bit of "is the church trying to usurp my power?" in the background?

At least until he threatens Aeva's baby and she tries to dismantle him and feed him piece-by-piece to his own core.
