+ | ====== Physical Merits ====== | ||
+ | ===== Selective Conception ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **Cost:** 1 | ||
+ | * **Availability: | ||
+ | * Your character controls his own fertility. A female character with this Merit can have sex as often as the opportunity is available, with no possibility of pregnancy unless she chooses to allow it. Said female character can also, at the cost of one Willpower point, ensure pregnancy after copulation with any male who is not sterile. A male character with this Merit cannot ensure pregnancy, but he can prevent undesired pregnancies. A male who does not actively exercise that option may or may not sire offspring during a sexual encounter and will not know whether a pregnancy occurs. | ||
+ | * This Merit is prized among Dynastic Dragon-Blooded due to the social stigma of siring lost eggs. | ||

+ | * The character gains a two-die bonus to all social rolls made to influence, charm or seduce others in the context of any party less sophisticated than a formal cotillion - whether in a raucous Northern bar, a Nexus orgy or the drunken initiation party for a newly Exalted Dragon-Blood. The character also gains a two-die bonus to all (Stamina + Resistance) rolls made for him to resist the effects of consuming too much alcohol or other recreational drugs at the party. At the Storyteller’s discretion, this two-die bonus may also apply to any rolls relevant to sexual performance in the context of the party. | ||

+ | * **Cost:** 3 | ||
+ | * **Availability: | ||
+ | * Unheard of in the First Age and extremely rare in the modern era, the blood of the Dragons runs so purely through your character’s veins that even other Dragon-Blooded are impressed… and occasionally frightened.

+ | * Add a one-die bonus on all social rolls against other Dragon-Blooded and against mortals taught to respect and fear the Dragon-Blooded. | ||
+ | * In addition to these benefits, the character suffers one drawback: It is so patently obvious that she is a Dragon-Blood that the difficulty of any attempts to pass as a mortal increases by two. | ||
