Possible Spoilers!
So, in our Kingmaker game, Chorral the Conquerer had a son, who my character found hiding in a well. Chorral the Second (going by the name of Arwyn) had abandoned the throne of the Rogarvia house because he was sick of human squabbling and the chaos of the nation - after 200 years, you can imagine an old and powerful dragon getting very sick of that.
The problem is, my character fell in love with Arwyn, and over the course of 3 years, they've been continuing on a relationship. They very recently were wed, and they're now considering the possibility of having children to leave behind a legacy (my character is the Ruler of the kingdom) - but they're both male.
My DM mentioned that there was some sort of ritual that could conceive a half-dragon without traditional pregnancy - not alternate form, but a specific ritual. Does anybody have any idea what that might be?
Sorry for the weirdness of this question!
Eh, I'd go with polymorph any object, make one a female "permanently" (this can and will be undone later with an automatically-successful dispel magic, as "permanent" duration effects are still subject to dispelling) and voila - the 'ritual' takes about nine months and tremendous pain for one of the two (guess which).
As far as leaving people male, you could make whoever the 'mother' is still retain all his sexual characteristics, but with the polymorph effect simply granting a womb and an efficient way to collect the seed to implant it into an egg. If he's polymorphed into a super-fertile variant... well, there you go, it shouldn't take long.
You could polymorph something like a rock "into your son", if you like, though it'd be more complicated and long-lasting.
I'm pretty sure your GM mentioned a ritual because it's alluded to in the Half-Dragon entry... but there's no similar ritual actually written out in the rules.
If you have access to the Wish or Miracle spells... I'd say you're pretty set to go there, too (especially if the Miracle is from Pharasma).
