:You can top it up with a simplified example of childbirth itself which should probably be Fortitude saves vs various complications, which should be semi-easily resolved with Heal checks. Enough that it's a non-issue with a doctor, but only a small but dangerous chance if you're giving birth in the woods alone. -- [[User:Eiji-kun|Eiji-kun]] ([[User talk:Eiji-kun|talk]]) 21:36, 5 December 2017 (MST)
:If wizards weren’t the standard explanation for hybrids, it wouldn’t be on their list at all. By analogy with reincarnate and raise dead:Including a status effect does seem like a good idea. I compromised and put might call it at 9th level‘stork-touched’. [[User:Ideasmith|Ideasmith]] ([[User talk:Ideasmith|talk]]) 19:34, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
::You can get Who knows if the mother is even there? Most D&D magic has the same effect from [[SRD:Polymorph Any Object|Polymorph Any Object]] thoughrange for all targets, which is 8th level (and way stronger overall). [[User:Surgo|Surgo]] ([[User talk:Surgo|talk]]) 20:45, 18 April 2016 (UTC):::Whether [[SRD:Polymorph Any Object|Polymorph Any Object]] can be used to create previously-unknown hybrids seems I see no reason for pregnancy magic to be up to the DM. I’m pretty sure it can’t make the target an exception, even if not all targets are technically made pregnant, whether by a specified individual or otherwise.

::Who’s to say that the mother is caring enough to get fatigued? Who says that the effects of a not-yet born baby gaining “nourishment and growth” through “conduits between this seed and the parents” are affected by whether the parents care? ::The DM gets to decide what pregnancy magic is possible in his/her gameworld. A DM who doesn’t want surprise pregnancies shouldn’t include magic that results in surprise pregnancies. A DM who doesn’t want pregnancies that involve threesomes shouldn’t include magic that results in pregnancies that involve threesomes. ::The conduit links the unborn child to both parents. Therefore the results of drawing nourishment through the conduit fall on both parents. ::I don’t see what makes DM fiat for pregnancy length always preferable to a simple formula. Nor do I see why making the formula available would prevent DMs who wished to from using DM fiat. Nor do I have now dropped this see why you consider dragons (pregnancy length: either 918 days or 1,818 days) any more relevant here than Elves (pregnancy length: 3,150 days). ::: (Note to self: Decide how ‘young adult’ counts for age of adulthood.) (Note to self: Dragons lay eggs. So do other creatures.) ::Thanks you for suggesting pregnancy loss from the Sorcererdamage/Wizard listexertion. I am working on it. There ::For RPG rules, detail for its own sake amounts to complexity for its own sake. You are better ways to suggesting a lot of rules for something that shouldn’t come up too often. Characters should mostly be staying safe at home while pregnant; DMs should mostly let wizards create hybridshome be safe. ::Since the rules don’t say whether elves, merfolk, and lizard folk can use each other’s armor (though DMG page 213, implies that they can wear each other’s magical armor), whether pregnancy affects what armor fits should depend on the DM’s calls on who can wear what armor. ::The Fortitude saves and Heal checks I’ve already included seem quite sufficient.What would these additional Fortitude checks add to the game?
