[Origin Cave]

Gembound Nursery
So, your character's going to have babies! Congratulations! By now, you should know that making babies isn't the same in Origin Cave as it is in real life. While it is still a highly respected and revered practice, it's done a little differently, such that is allows characters of any gender, species, size, etc. to conceive children.

In order to have children, two characters must:

- Possess as many Give Life and Give Stone spells as children they want to have (maximum 3 children)
- Complete a conception thread (ie. both characters exit upon completion) (if you make the thread before your conception thread is done, no results will be posted until the conception thread is complete)
- Be 4+ cycles old
- Haven't had children in the past 4 cycles
- Have made a minimum of 40 posts each PRIOR to conception thread

Once these requirements are met, the players of the characters can post a new thread for their litter (it should be named something to the effect of Parent 1 x Parent 2). Each parent posts the following form for their own character. When both parents have posted in their information, a staff member will then post in the thread stating whether or not the conception is successful. The only reason why a conception would fail would be if your characters do not meet the above requirements, or, in the case of multiple parents, the conception threads are made more than a week apart. If you have chosen a randomized litter, the staff member will also produce the results of the conception, otherwise you are free to post the results yourself.

Code:

<b>Parent:</b> State the parent character.
<b>Giving:</b> Life or Stone? List the quantity.
<b>Health:</b> Give an approximation of your character's health.
<b>Element:</b> Your character's element.
<b>Stone:</b> Your character's stone.
<b>Had any previous litters:</b> Link us to the threads for any previous litters.
<b>Randomize Litter?:</b> If you answer "Yes", a GM will produce randomized attributes for your litter for you.
<b>Randomize Mutations?:</b> If "Yes," list the parents' Major Mutations. A GM will randomize whether the mutations are inherited as-is, or altered in some way.
<b>Link to Conception Thread:</b> Link us to the conception thread.

Code:

Only post this form if you are customizing your own litter. You can produce as many children as your characters have a pair of Give Life + Give Stone spells.

<b>Child Name:</b> The name of the child, if one is chosen.
<b>Gender:</b> The child's gender.
<b>Species:</b> Can be a hybrid if parents are different species.
<b>Appearance:</b> Produce a small summary of their appearance. (If leaving appearance up to adopters, please GM tag once adopters are chosen to have their designs approved.)
<b>Element:</b> Must share the element of the parent using Give Life.
<b>Stone:</b> Must share the stone of the parent using Give Stone.
