Before anyone gets exasperated with me, no, this is not a request to put incest in the game. As the title indicates, I am asking "what attitude/position do the various in-game cultures canonically take towards incest?" IRL, different cultures have different positions on incest, and different ideas about what counts as incest. E.g. In some cultures, marriage between 1st cousins is fairly common, while in others, sexual relations between 2nd cousins are strictly forbidden. I would assume the various in-game cultures of CoC2 would likewise vary.
By way of example, Minotaurs (Brienne & Rina), Tanuki (Senja & Meira), and Kitsune (Miko & Mai) don't seem to have issues with engaging in sexual acts with siblings, though in all the list examples, the siblings were of the same gender in a threesome with a 3rd party (the player). (I always turn Brint into Brienne at the earliest opportunity, so I'm not as familiar with his attitude towards the subject). The Vesparans (Azyrran and Nyzerrah) seem to have a similar attitude towards threesomes involving a mother and daughter. Do those examples reflect the values of those culture? Or do they merely reflect the attitudes of the specific individuals involved?
In contrast, the half-siblings Garret and Solveig attempted to have sex before they knew of their relationship, but Garret couldn't get it up that day, indicating that Lupines have an instinctive opposition towards incest, at least between different gendered siblings. If true, this apparently doesn't stop the townsfolk from spreading rumors early on that Garret was the one how got his sister (Gwyneth) pregnant, indicating at least that outsiders have a different perception of Lupine culture. It also doesn't stop Gwyneth from having a major Daddy complex, though this is implied to be a personal thing.
As another example, it is fairly well known that in the original CoC, Harpies (Sophie) and Goblins (Tamani) actually encouraged the players to have sex with their daughters. Are the Harpies and Goblins of CoC2 similar? (Personal opinion: I hope not. I want my wholesome bundle of cuteness Mitra to stay that way).
