Hello Dark!
Thank you for your concern, but the admin are firm on this aspect of the game. We do strive for, as much as possible, realism in a few key aspects of the game. This includes battling, injuries, disease/illness, fallibility, species limitations (ie gliding only rules for non-pegs), breeding and other things! For example, mares must be pregnant for "x" amount of time and are vulnerable while pregnant, and their foals can be killed if they fight. Also, hybrid characters have an extremely high death rate for children, which is also an example of how we keep birth natural! These are just a few examples of the ways we strive for realism.
Since birthing happens naturally and without god intervention, we are firm on the position that only opposite sex (not gender) couples can conceive just as in the real world. This is not a gender/bias issue against same sex couples but an aspect of the game that we prefer to keep realistic. The gods can and do allow same sex characters to conceive a child though, since they can alter the natural world, and usually these quests are very romantic and sweet in nature!
The admin believe that a little extra work isn't a bad thing when it comes to break the mold in the game!
