Does this mean we have a fiance now, and does the nonnatural crit we are having multiple kids. Does having a mutation improve our kids chance of having a similar or no mutation?

- California,USA
No...you have to work for that.
This was a One Night-stand with a former acquaintance. who was kind enough to leave a note on the Nightstand.
You likely are having only One Child...just check in with the Primarch Order, they are experts on this stuff.
Yes...By having a Mutation you are allowing a Mutation to be passed on, via genetics.
Plan to Roll something terrible.
Or something awesome.
I don't know.

I've been meaning to ask. On a d100 are you doing 1-5 range being negative mutations or no mutations and 45-55 range being standard mutations(i.e. red hair, eye color) or is the middle range just no mutations

- California,USA
I Roll a d 1000 for Mutation traits. because standard d100s are for congenital traits, (Genius Attractive and so On).

How many turns until the child is born? What effects will pregnancy have if any?

Two at the Latest. Any Longer has story concequences.
It has a trait that affects personal combat and Martial.
Does our good mutation roll affect the child's mutation roll?
- Location
- California,USA
Yes it does, as a small positive bonues.
The Higher the Mutation Roll...the more positive the power.

Promises Made, Kept, and Formed
(Ellera POV)
I never really expected to know anything more than my own duty and obligations…its kinda hard to think of yourself when you are raised to think of others.
A Lifetime of work…needed to craft me into someone competent for the state.
Then you walked into my life and taught me to be selfish, you taught me to be free and open with my life.
Not in the way you anticipated…but the lesson remains.
You taught me the lession of self and the necessary need to be a selfish bastard every once in a while…to take the good things with the bad and watch the chaos of the void with a smile…
Even when it all went to hell…you left I didn't think I had enough courage in me to make the first battle…then I kept fighting and winning and leading.
Got good at it, spilled my share of blood…gained some treasure.
But it was only a distraction to keep that longing away…
God here I am acting like a schoolgirl…damn…decades change people.
So when I saw you reenter my life I took the chance with both hands.
You are a commander now, have your own ship… and everything.
Being your own man.
Guess you don't have time for me…but I only hope you keep me in your heart.
And should the time come, and we are separated again…by time and circumstance.
At least know what we had was real.

"We both know that's not possible…even now." He said.
"Stay a little longer." You said.
"We both know that isn't possible." He said it again firmer this time. "Time and circumstances have changed us too much to just set us off together like nothing happened."
You frowned knowing the truth in his words. "I want this to last forever."
"I know…I know you do…but we can't." He said. "Let me go…move on with your life."
"I can't just let you walk away again…not after-" You said.
"You need someone a bit more dependable than me to help you become a better person. I just started you down this road." He said.
"I can't be alone again…I spent too much time being alone." You said.
"You aren't alone…look around, and love those around you…then…who knows what kind of gifts the world is giving you." He said smiling.
"I know…" You said as he put a hand on your shoulder and then on your stomach. "Still a dick move to leave me like this."
"I'm sure you'll manage well enough." He said.
"I know I will, the child's gonna be a Bastard." You said.
"Since when has the stigma of being born out of wedlock stopped anyone…lest of all you." He said.
"I know…here I am now, a child only my parents wanted to lead a nation into another war because I wanted them to remember me." You said.
"Well, look for love in your own time who will see you not for what you have behind you in the path you walked alone…but what you have to earn together ahead." He said.
"Have you always been this smart?" You said.
"I've always been smarter than you…you've just been too stubborn to notice." He said. "But you've got me beat in terms of practicality."
"Goodbye…" You said.
He turned and kissed your cheek before leaving. "Be happy with the life you have. And don't let anyone tell you differently."
He left you not a moment later…but before he left the threshold he gave one final bit of advice.
"You already know how to love yourself…Ellera, loving those around you shouldn't be that hard." He said leaving you alone at long last.
You stood alone in the loft looking at the mirror and the scarred face of Ellera Sigmondottor looking back, the one afraid of connections and relationships.
You finally smiled. "Why should I care if it all ends in fire…Its the road there that counts doesn't it."
You knew you were right…you were always right.
"I hope you're a boy…because if you're a girl…then I'd have to explain a few things about Synth Suits and what a lesbian is… because somehow its going to come up." You said going to get dressed and move onto the next chapter in your life.
War is easier than children.
But one was a bit more rewarding.
Reward: Commander Adam Reacher has reacquainted himself to you.
You feel happy and hopeful for the future at long last.
Gain trait: Pregnant: This woman is with child (-4 to martial, -20 personal combat for the duration of her pregnancy)
Tech Expedition Roll for Navigation Has a +20 for its Phase.
AN: If you squint you can see little hints of Ellera's backstory and psychology.
Enjoy…

You finally smiled. "Why should I care if it all ends in fire…Its the road there that counts doesn't it."
You knew you were right…you were always right.
"I hope you're a boy…because if you're a girl…then I'd have to explain a few things about Synth Suits and what a lesbian is… because somehow its going to come up." You said going to get dressed and move onto the next chapter in your life.
War is easier than children.
But one was a bit more rewarding.

So gang any feedback?
I'm just waiting for the baby roll but I do have one question @Cyberphilosipher is the mutation inheritable? or is it random? such as regardless of the roll, the mutation will be similar to ours?
...Oh dear.
And that left her a piece of work mentally.
Looks like our MC was raised specifically to be a soldier...

It is missing the -5 from Sadist. Should be 51.
You missed both +3 bonuses and a +2. So it needs an extra +8 to the stat. Should be 36.
In this one you had an extra +3 that doesn't exist and you are missing a +2 so the number should be 31
Missing +5 Intrigue, should be 31.
