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

Still fond of my idea of spermcount as mana.
That's actually a great gameplay idea. Wizs and priests are making will checks daily for mana retention.
Actually, that make sense. and explain a lot of priest "lore" : celibate etc.

And just imagine how would female magic work. Mana generation tied to ovulation cycle, allowing them to become a living thermonuclear bomb when menstruation hits, unless the reserves were poisoned by the touch of male mana. Alternately, getting pregnant in order to get a living mana battery, draining the embryo's life force to power spells. The possibilities are endless...

And wizards who are desperate to both have their power and keep their libido intact provide an infinite number of quest hooks.

and everyone around you think it's time to conquer poland?
To be honest even Poland does that
when you hear potato snek speech you think it's time to swallow some mice whole.
Ćśśśś. Przestań zdradzać nasze sekrety.
"Тссс. Перестань сдавать наши секреты."
Polish is perversed Russian language on perversed Latin script.
I bet Lacrymas' book is written in it.

Here's the beginning of chapter 1 to whet your appetites and get a feeling for how it's going to look like. I still haven't decided on names for people, so I've left some of them blank for now.

Of course, this is not even its final form. That will take a while to materialize, especially since I have other creative projects I need to get done first.

1. Tell that to Germans.
2. We also can do шла саша по шоссе.
But at least we have one kkkustom letter for each sound instead of a random selection of kkkargo-culted Italian ones.

Of course, this is not even its final form.
Not enough words in bold, we need more Tyranny vibes.

No, they are like a cement mixer filled with stones. Completely different tool!
2. We also can do шла саша по шоссе.
Yeah, you just don't do it often enough, prefering the angle grinder instead.

If you have high prophetess, does it mean you also have "low" prophetess(es)? Like, for peasants?
No, she's the only prophetess due to possessing an artifact that allows her to see up to 30 minutes or an hour into the future and can attempt to change the outcome if she's sly or skillful enough. She can only do this once per a set amount of time. I haven't decided how much time she can see or how long the "cool down" is going to be, but the idea is that she can change combat outcomes or help her in political situations. There are two of these artifacts in existence and if an adventuring party can get their hands on one of them it's essentially a built-in save feature to allow them to replay a combat encounter if they don't like the result the first time. There's a cool down so it doesn't make either the party or the prophetess immortal. "High" just denotes she's a member of the ecclesiarchy representing her faction (church of the sun in her case).

I don't know what means.

Numer feels like...

10. Darkroom on a summer night in a closed BDSM club in Amsterdam.

9. Darkroom in a regular Amsterdam gay club.

8. Gay sex shop in Amsterdam.

7-5 - the same, but in the USA.

4. "Traps are not gay".

3. Center in the Pride Parade.

2. Homoeroticism of the dormitory.

1. True heterosexuality. Big tits, big guns and raw meat.
