There was a reason why I was an Archer. Well, either use a Bow or hide behind the Muscle of the Group depending on the situation.
 
In Meta-Gaming terms, yes. However, if you consider it from the in-character perspective of the adventurer, you're going off to fight deadly creatures on a daily basis and have to trust that your skills will get you through. Unless you're one of those wimpy adventurers, of course xD

Wouldn't really be meta-gaming if your not comfortable rping it
I believe you're thinking of Meta-Gaming in a different context from me. What I mean by Meta-Gaming is when you consider it from your perspective. As in you, TheRiverSings, not your character.
 
Yup! It's why I do that. I don't think I can list all the classes that I have taken that have nothing to do with my vet tech major.

Vet tech? Is that like medical equipment for animals?
 
It's one step under a vet. Full title is vetrinary technician. I have to run all the equipment so the almighty vet can analyze it

Depends if it tickles my fancy(most likely will). What were you thinking about
Something similar to an RP I had to drop. I'll make an Interest Check when I can ^^
 
Okay. Might as well be the oddball on this one.


While I certainly think it's a good idea, and hell I might even be open to doing it someday! I think it's just...different. Technically when roleplaying as a pregnant woman (Or man if that's your thing) you'd be roleplaying for...two? I think it would really just depend on the roleplay I mean...it's kind of awkward hitting a pregnant person in the more violent roleplays. Actually though, as I start thinking about this more and more I see all the situations this could cause and I'm actually starting to like the premise, so I'm changing my vote to a no.


Pregnant characters could drive the plot in a different way, as well as build character relations like Charlie and that one chick on LOST
 
It's never really bothered me. I've roleplayed for seven years and I've only really roleplayed with two people. We did more of a everyday life modern, go with the flow a lot of the time while we were trying to come up with other ideas. We both played pregnant characters quite often, especially since we did a lot with romance and family life. We find ourselves making our character's families grow, so I've found it quite normal.
 
Pregnant charecters make me... very uncomfortable.


Those that are pregnant have limits.


They can't run a 5k and then suckerpunch a zombie.


It doesn't make sense.


It's disturbing.


If you haven't been pregnant, I don't really think you can assume you know a pregnant woman's limits.


It just doesn't make sense, to me at least.

They do in some settings. For example, in an adventure or survival setting, the pregnant character is obviously going to be higher maintenance than a non-pregnant character, so it can quickly turn into an "escort mission" and gamers know how much those are hated. But they make me uncomfortable in the sense that "NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO BE PREGNANT!" as opposed to "Ew... preggers X.X" Pregnancy is a natural part of human life and if a character is pregnant, that's perfectly fine.
