Preg content from any of Savin's characters is a very rare occurrence and to my knowledge has only happened once. But hey I'm not Savin so who knows?

You must be new here since you used "have kids with" and "Saendra, Syri or Anno" in one sentence. 


But to answer you question: No. Why, you ask? It's a long story...

that's a major NOPE there. Even if Savin rewrote his characters sex scenes, especially those three where you didn't have to use a condom or them likewise there STILL wouldn't be any preg content for them.

If you paid him enough money. He might reconsider? But if there's a long story behind it, maybe even money wouldn't make it happen.

As far as I understand, Savin isn´t a fan of preg content.


But here´s a list of the gals I do know you can get pregnant, to cheer you up.


Female Raskvel


Briha


Shade (Cunt tail)


...the length of this list might actually just make it depressing...


And here´s a list of characters that are always pregnant.

You can fertilize Queen Taivra's eggs on the regular, and she'll quickly dump them in one of her betas to make room for more. I should totally write a scene of her showing off an egg-stuffed huntress, filled with your royal spawn, come to think of it. If you have a receptive scene with her after knocking her up, you can end up carrying your own royal eggs.


I'm pretty sure you can breed Renvra, for much the same result as Tavira.


You can also knock up the Queen of the Deep (again) if you beat her in combat, but she disappears after one encounter so you don't get to see your spawn.

That would've been awesome.


Also I completely forgot that you could impregnate the Queen of the Deep and not just get egged by her.

Just 'cause you played CoC a lot doesn't mean you know the behind the scenes things about it...    Anyways, when I wrote "new here" I mean't the forums or more specifically the TiTS section of the forums.

It's not so much the kids part as the being-a-parent part.  As MP noted, being a parent is like, actually a major commitment.  It's probably the most life-altering event that exists.  Running around the galaxy having sexy times with aliens and fighting pirates in a base rigged to explode in ten minutes is really the sort of thing that ought to end when you have children waiting for you to come home.  A lot of what made Savin's last brush with pregnancy content uncomfortable was it was really difficult for Helia to avoid going through the whole realization of "holy shit I can't keep doing most of the shit I've been doing with my life anymore".

Oh no, I was just kidding with that jab in particular.


Mother/daughter slutting is super common in porn. The only thing she had to stop doing was drinking during the pregnancy. In the context of the game(s), pregnancy is just another fetish to exploit/enjoy, and having kids is another source of WAFF (or smut, if you're into that). Savin in particular won't write it though, and that's totally fine.

Given the stakes of everything involved in the planet rush, it's not too much of a stretch to say that some parents, the PC and their companions in particular, may decide that while running around the galaxy on a treasure hunt may be too dangerous for the kiddies to be drug along with that it's worth the risk to secure a better future for their kids. Even if it means that you can only visit sometimes during their youngest years and rely on holocalls otherwise. Hell you'd probably end up a better parent than daddy dearest and his trail of bastards that you've likely slept with many of by the end of everything.

Lot of speaking for Savin here.


Will those characters have preg content one way or another? Someday, maybe. You might notice there isn't any in general; it's a fair bit to write for, after all, and things like the day care etc etc to actually manage the tykes aren't here. You might also have noticed we're in a more grounded setting, meaning you can't pop a baby in two weeks in the fucked up time apocalypse that was CoC. A lot of thought here and there has to go into it, as well as a fair bit of commitment. Commitment that loses priority over things like space and the new combat system and so on.


Gonna be a while.

It might be worth the risk to some people, especially a given player's Steele because the player shapes their own character's priorities, but I don't think it'd be worth it for the majority of NPC's. Especially Savin's characters, considering they all seem to have fairly intricate things going on in their own lives. 


For crew marriages/pregnancies/companionship in general, they need to be planned out ahead of time. The entire character needs to have a solid foundation that creates a situation where it would make sense for them to be okay with settling down or essentially devoting themselves entirely to the PC. Savin's characters are not that. They have other love interests, plans and long-term goals, and just generally have their own shit to deal with. And that's fine, I think it's one reason they're well-loved.


To insist Savin write such serious commitments into his characters is a bit demanding, and I feel it limits creativity. 


Other followers, though, maybe followers with less intensive backstories or flat-out simpler lives could definitely be "true waifu/husbando" material. When they don't really have much going on outside their life with Steele, and therefore would be able to cover for Steele's unavoidable lack of presence without much trouble.

Speaking as one of the, if not the obligate preggophile on the FoE writing team, this. So much this.


Slapping preg content onto a random character who was intended for something else completely and was never intended to accommodate such content can essentially break that character. It's one of the reasons that there are characters I've written who will never have such content, despite it being my particular kink. There have been requests to knock up, say, Cassidy, and the answer is always no.


The characters have to be planned from the outset to allow for proper preg content, because I sure as hell aren't going to be satisfied with a simple parser call to describe the preg in the first place. Cveta's follower doc has her appearance account for pregnancy progress, multiples, number of chicks she's had, lactation status, effects on her boobs right down to nipple colour, etc, etc - and this goes for the whole of the appearance section. Same thing goes for the character I'm writing up for the Super Sekrit Project(TM) - one whole section of her entire character arc is designed to revolve about what kind of mother she ends up as, depending on her corruption level.


Now try imagine shoehorning that retroactively into another character who wasn't planned for it. No, it doesn't work. It comes off half-assed, and serious preggophiles like me come off unsatisfied, and those who don't want to deal with it are annoyed. You've got to consider the setting, the character in question, if you have a reasonable excuse for the kids to hang around, for the lady in question to hang around.


Every character I've written preg content for has at least tried to take care of those issues beforehand, even if in lesser detail than what I reserve for my bird ladies. Isla. Moira. If anyone plays Flexible Survival, Nadia. If you're not going to do it properly and tack it on as an afterthought, better to not do it at all.

I'm just sad that Savin's preferred methods of avoiding preg-content are condoms and making NPC's vagina off-limits. Makes sense for someone like Shade; Anno or Saendra - less so.

I also enjoy buttsex. It's indeed a thing, and a glorious one at that. Thank G-d for Savin, yadda yadda.


Still doesn't make raw vaginal sex less desirable, now does it?

It's a thing.

I basically agree with Rijn here.  Like, that's the entire reason I wrote Sterilex.  Anal is fun, but I rather enjoy vaginal sex and raw vaginal in particular, and basically not being able to do it at all with Savin's girls because of the fallout from pregshit is frustrating.

I mean, Savin wrote all of his stuff before I wrote Sterilex.  It exists ex post facto to provide a new method of birth control that doesn't leave creampie lovers out and is also absolutely guaranteed to never allow pregnancy.


See Aliss and Penny for sex scenes that make some sexy use of condoms.  With someone like Syri the focus of the condom is very clearly in its use to prevent procreation.

IIRC, people bugged Savin into making preg content soo much he just kind of got burned out of it.


This goes all the way back to the CoC days I think.

ALSO to prevent SSTDs which were still a thing being bandied about back then, but luckily they've yet to rear their ugly head. Nobody ever talked about how you were supposed to avoid giving them to everybody you boinked, soooo. Syri, at least, tried to safeguard against all of that nonsense. 


I'd point out more recent characters like Kaede (well, recent in solo appearances), Kara, Cameron, Khan, (god I like C/K names I guess), the new Tamani Corp chick I'm finishing up with... all of whom eschew that stuff because things like Sterrilex came into existence, or I just got tired of hearing people whine about it and decided to soak the "But wai no babbies wen my Virility is 10,000%?????"


Not to mention the characters you actually CAN reproduce with, which paradoxically have mostly come from me -- at least if you count eggs.

There is a heat/rut mechanic, however. Dunno if it's actually in use anywhere yet, though it was a whole thing in CoC. 

only character I know of that has that mechanic in use in the game is the new centaur girl.

Our nanobots should take care of most un-sexy variations of STDs and just swinging by the nearest medical facility would be enough to check for/cure things that managed to slip past. Medical Certificate key item, anyone?

The future is so bright I don't need my eyes to see it! Better than that, it'll be more shiny than the Realized Communist Tomorrow.


I've always been perplexed by  the fact that PC's microbots are unable to effect their virility by themselves. Imagine Steele being all badass, ripping off Judge Dredd while ordering them around. Double Whammy indeed.

I'v been meaning to chime in on this thread but job and school.....ugh.


 TL;DR : Preg content seems pointless with the game still so early in it's life cycle. The consequences of it would slow down progression of the story tremendously. It should either be extremely toned down (god please no more getting egged content) or just taken out all together.


Anyway i'v read a few interesting points regarding why most characters (not just savin's) are most likely never going to have any kind of pregnancy content regardless of the situation. This game is more focused on the lives of several characters that your PC just so happens to be apart of. If you think about it, PC really is insignificant. Their quest has nothing to do with, say seandra's ambitions and personal goals, true she'd probably be dead without PC but hey she got her self into the position she's in. So now that we have her in the position she's in, she still has her own life and goals. Why through a kid on her? If not her then lets look at Anno. Haven't delved into her character much but i do know she's involved with other people and made it point blank know "look PC i'm not trying to settle down and play house waifu with you. I have a life far more important than you." and even has a long time girlfriend and will actively pursue other lovers with or without you acknowledgment. Why through a kid on her?


The point im trying to make, I don't think preg content should be in this game. Period. Not male PC knocking up NPC, or NPC knocking up female PC. The debate a damn near political tide it's brought on because it's not done in a lot of peoples favor is a problem that could have been avoided. Yeah sure i'm one of those guys who loved stuffing NPCs full of cum and watching an end result unfold but from what i'v seen, why push creators to do something they completely  had no intention of doing but then have to settle for something that can easily be shrugged off or that just doesn't sit right with a lot of folks, unless you like getting knocked up with alien eggs that might not even have your genes or some other minor substitution. It's a concept that i knew would be an issue back when there were only two planets around with (roughly) 4 or 5 sexable NPCs.


The game should be focused on the PC's quest and adventure through and through with the added option of banging countless alien chicks along the road. Even how the PC's quest could intertwine with the stories of other characters, like that treasure seandra talked about when confronting her about her involvement with the void. Yeah that would mean taking out a huge chuck out of the game's fetish pool but i see it as necessary. As of now i just see preg content as pointless as almost any follower/crew member on you ship that basically serve no purpose for being there.


Speaking of which, i'd like to go off topic and say that yeah i actually find crew members at this point, pointless. They don't help out, none are even bothered or are even involved with anything around you. Anno's a rocket scientist that's basically getting a free ride through the galaxy in exchange for sex and morning hand jobs, all of which can be acquired from several NPC before and after you meet her. She's more useful back on tarkus running the shop than she is on the ship. Rhea is just....there. You bought her, help her with her patch addiction, and what? Free milk? Celcie....actually does something. If my memory serves me correct she does keep the ship clean.


There was another post i actually touched on this subject a little, but i see this a an issue carried over from CoC where none of the so called followers had jack shit to do with the story or even knew what the hell PC had been going through. No one helped with the factor, not with Zetaz's cave, not even with the final dungeon that ended it all. They might have gotten a slight mention in the ending scenes but none of them mattered to the big picture. And it's a big issue that i felt made the game's story feel irrelevant at times and i'm starting to get that feeling from TiTs. I played through Kara quest on a trial run once just to see what would change and decide to nuke the facility and after getting back to the ship ( if my memory serves correct ) not one crew member mentions there being a nuke really close by and the subsequent disaster caused by it. They don't even ask how your day went or why you're so dirty and probably covered with someone's blood if not your own.  


*steps down off soap box*
