No, Guido's just jealous of our writhe time, keep quiet Guido.

Did you see the log of me doing exactly that? I posted it on the Aetolia forums.

I hear when the Geomancers do it, the earth moves.

Nihilists like it with lots of pain. Shackles/Torture is one of the most erotic things around.

As far as I know, most people in Serenwilde do it...well, outside. I know we Loboshigaru can get really rough, but nothing sadistic/masochistic.

Oh, and I still haven't found whether or not dogs eat the afterbirth, though I would guess that they do.

Accurate.

Were you ever a Nihilist?

I'm pretty sure they do. (I'm sorry I saddled you with the question! But it was fun.)

Sex with foresty people is yummy

..._WHY_ are we talking about this?

*shakes his head slowly*

Hmm, maybe the answer is in the thread subject. Yeah, could be.

I turned on Fox to watch House, but American idol is on... One of the girls's name is Underwood.

I think she is from sernewilde, and we all know where she does it.

Bear Logic prevails.

heheh, that's ok, it was interesting. Ya know, Ceadoc never answered my question...*growls* evil bear person...
That whole thing about Elfens preserving the afterbirth kinda weirds me out...makes me very glad to be Loboshi.
Oh, and we're talking about this because I was curious and it's a fun topic. If it bothers you, Etanru, then you can go away.

No offense to Ceadoc but you might want to ask a few other tae'dae; I don't think he's had enough time to really work on their culture, certainly not far enough to think about how they handle the afterbirth!

Though since there's only one eligible female tae'dae in the Basin that I know of (and as she's Gwylifar's protege, all courting requests must be approved by him first! ) it might be that no one has gotten as far as to work out mating customs, let alone midwifery customs.

as a man who has unholy experince breeding with Nihilists, I can attest to the shackles and torture Part. They like to bite and claw, and sometimes attempt to remove organs with a knife during the love making. It works out quite nicely really as the Dracnari in me enjoys the taste of blood regardless of who's it is so we share our bites and then have to whitewash the bedroom after each session.

As for children: Dracnari lay eggs, a clutch of 2-6 is common however on average only 2-3 children will survive. Predators and the elements kill us off when we are young and not yet developed our scails fully. The gestation period is around 7 monthes (as in, they spend 7 monthes in the egg). The mother...sometimes the father (stagar's case) will either burry the egg in sand, lava, or in extreme cases wrap a tail around the egg and carry it with them. The only problem with lava, is that the parent must come back and dig the egg out before the egg hatches as though the egg is made of a substance close to their scails and theirfore can handle the heat, the hatchling does not yet have the scails of their parents and thus would suffer from the lava, most likely fatal. It is not until the teen years they can realistically handle the heat of fire and lava, and not until their closer to adulthood that they begin to be able to possess the gift of the inner flame which we grow in our belly....


I really thought this through guys..

kudos!  You really did your research!  I was thinking about the different races and how they would breed for a while now, and have come to several conclusions:
Trill, Merians and Mugwumps lay eggs.  Merian and Mugwump eggs are significantly more numerous than Trill and Dracnari eggs, but much tinier, and are laid in water.  Trill build nests and lay about as many eggs as a Dracnari, but the eggs are smaller.  Gestation is about seven months for Trill.  For Merians and Mugwumps, the babies emerge about four months after the eggs are laid.  They are not fully developed, however, and live the first few years as tiny tadpole-like creatures in the water, until they sprout legs and can walk on the surface.
The Viscanti reproduce asexually.  All they must do is amputate a body part from which another Viscanti will grow.  *sagenod*  Same goes for Lucidians, cause I don't know how a crystal person would be able to have kids...

I don't think the Viscanti reproduce asexually, because they're basically just heavily Tainted versions of other races.

And it doesn't really make sense for Lucidians to have asexual reproduction (much as I would love the race even more if it were), because *HONOURS REXALI* they have genders.

that was mostly a joke anyways guess I shoulda said that when I posted...

Oh. Well, uh, dang, I'll shut up then.
