Winter has frosted Alcryst like the cold blush of a corpse, hardening every surface with frigid ice searing through the depths of its heart. The plants are lethargic and slow, the sky is desaturated and dull, and the wind is a violent gale ripping apart flesh and soil alike.

Conception Procedures

Whether preserving your bloodlines or creating a legacy, children will remember your name long past your life. There is no love greater than a bond between a parent and their offspring, so they say. Many will find that there is also no loyalty more useful.

[PTab=Rules]

By default, conception requires a biological male and female of the same species. Contribution horse breeds and human races may implement their own regulations; once approved by administration and accepted into a Contribution sub-board, these can override the default system. For example, a reptilian horse breed might lay a dozen small eggs. All participants must always be consenting adults; this is age 36 for humans and 8 for horses.
To pursue conception, 2 characters must engage in IC intercourse in 1 completed thread. It is not mandatory to explicitly roleplay intercourse; if preferred, threads can be written with precursory interaction and "fade to black" before any sexual contact occurs, thus leaving the action as a simple OOC note in conclusion. It is also an option to roleplay intercourse, following either PG-13 or R rating standards. Pornographic or X-rated content is not permitted.
Either member may then create a thread in Genesis tagging the IC and OOC accounts of the other parent and linking to the completed thread. You must inform staff if you are applying any relevant items, such as "successful conception" from the Underground. The other parent must post their consent before the process can proceed. Finally, post in Invocation to alert staff.
Staff will then roll a dice to determine the outcome. In all below instances, dice face 1 means success and all other faces mean your character was not impregnated:

Tamed Horses

If both parents are regular tamed horses, then the dice has 3 faces.
If 1 of the parents is a stud/broodmare and the other parent is a regular tamed horse, then the dice has 2 faces.
If the parents are both a stud and broodmare, then conception is guaranteed.

Wild Horses:

If both parents are rogues, then the dice has 3 faces.
If 1 of the parents is a herd member of any rank and the other is a rogue, then the dice has 2 faces.
If both parents are herd members of either the same or separate herds, then conception is guaranteed.

Humans:

If both parents are unemployed, then the dice has 3 faces.
If 1 of the parents has at least 1 occupation and the other is unemployed, then the dice has 2 faces.
If both parents have at least 1 occupation, then conception is guaranteed.

To give birth, the female character must finish at least 8 completed threads. While her pregnancy does not need to be the main topic, it must be accommodated accordingly in all threads. Once finished, characters may give birth at their convenience through the respective system; tamed horses must use a veterinarian, wild horses use Torrid Cauldron, and humans use Delphic Provenance.
Every attempt at conception requires its own completed thread. The completed thread must be both created and finished between each separate attempt to qualify.
After giving birth, female characters must wait 14 days to attempt conception again. Males do not have a time restriction.
