Let's talk about Lacrymas' homebrew fantasy setting where paladins are eunuchs

The official rules existing doesn't mean the authorities can magically enforce them in all cases ever. That's why I mentioned in the beginning that you can do whatever you want, as long as you aren't caught. There aren't really nobles in my setting, though, so nobody is "above the law" in that sense. That said, however, this doesn't mean everyone outside of the authorities is going to be ok with your deviancy, quite the contrary. These rules are also culturally reinforced and maintained.
Then its irrealistic as fuck, there's always some form of nobility and they are above the law.

What sort of magic is used to provide contraception?
Either the magic of ancient condoms, or the magic of the so-called non-vaginal sex. I know, right? weird af. God forbid heterosexuals try something non-vanilla for once. ;d

So the church doesn't control your sex life, unless it does. I was kinda hopeful that a church lends people their eunuch to cast contraception spells when they want to fuck.

There's no nobility "caste" let's say, but there are no castes either way. Since it's a theocracy, there are no dukes, princes, kings, or any of that sort to control land, that's why there's no nobility like you'd find in a feudal system. There's corrupt clergy obviously, but I'd like to get away from the cliche of the "debauched upper classes" which get away with obvious crimes because they are upper class. We'll see, though, since the setting is still in its infancy.

So the church doesn't control your sex life, unless it does. I was kinda hopeful that a church lends people their eunuch to cast contraception spells when they want to fuck.
I was toying with the idea of no sex being allowed outside of special chambers within the churches when I was first conceiving this setting, but I figured it would be ridiculously hard to stop people from having sex, so I changed it to the current system of authorizing babies.

I like your setting Lacrymas don't bother too much here considering it's full of unironic DND fans.
Fuck Lacrymas' D&D setting in particular. If priests aren't obliged to change sex and have orgies in the middle of the town to experience vaginal sex, are you even playing real D&D?
You are confusing D&D with the Forgotten Realms setting ;d
So has been doing everyone at WotC since the release of 5E.

D&D has a lot of setting on it. Eberron and Dark Sun settings are both D&D settings but extremely different. And BTW, both settings are far better than this socialist theocracy proposed by Lacrymas.

So has been doing everyone at WotC since the release of 5E.

The metaplot of D&D is dead since the second half of 3e. The worst thing that WotC can make is release a Dark Sun campaign setting for 5e.

'no because food is the component for the summon food spell'

So you refrained on forcing people to reproduce into specific rooms ,under supervision by priests ,in your setting.. Dont pussy out ! It should only be allowed while wearing plate armor to not be corrupted by the woman's foul taint. In my opinion, no safe sex without plate armor.

Is the entire world in that setting dominated by a theocratic socialist dictatorship? Not a single country in a conan stygian style chad demonologist with a succubus harem to corrupt and slay this eunuchs paladins? If I was a balancefag/arcane caster hater, I would make a setting where arcane magic is evil and put the clerics and martial classes to fight this evil arcanists.

Conan has a total of ZERO good magicians and is a pretty good setting.

BTW, there are druids in your setting?

"Oh, I see there already 18 pages of discussion, but I don't think Lacrymas's setting can get any worse..."
*My eyes read through posts about female only barbarians going through school to gain their powers and other crazy bullshit*

this thread is full of darkness

i cast magic missile at the darkness

lastchristmas, do you not see how you are being utterly fascistic here:

- the retardation you exhibit is an innate ability your were born with that unfairly sets you apart from others!

- your retardation is also individualist and only requires force of will by the user, there is no outside force regulating it!

- if we dont ban it, soon it will spread and the whole setting will be about your retardation!

- wont somebody please think of the poor eunuch paladin women barbarians who must suffer due to your supreme fascistic retardation ruining everything?

if you'll excuse me, i'll go cast Mind Blank on myself to forget ever reading this

over and out

Eh, there was that witch what helped bring down t
Xaltotun in Hour of the Dragon.
There was also that wise woman/fortune teller who helped him in one of Robert Jordan's novels. She was killed not long after by the evil wizard's minions. Can't remember the name of the book.

The what now?
Yeah. They are a thing.

He went all out on that one, too, IIRC. The fortune teller had Conan fuck her hard, and she was still naked and wet when the minions came. She just stood up and told them to get on with it. Other than that it was not too memorable.

Red Sonja might have made a cameo, or I might have mixed that up with another novel in his pirate phase.

Nah, mate. He's a fascist simply because I don't like him. Anything I don't like is fascist, don't you know?
