IMO, non-illuminated broo are forced to follow their chaotic >nature and go on a mad impregnating spree. Why should illumination make any difference as to whether a broo, or any other being, follows it's instincts? I don't think broo sexual drive is necesserily anything to do with their chaoticness, per se. Also illuminated broo are not any less chaotic in a physical sense than non-illuminated ones. Illumination doesn't remove chaotic features for example, or affect their ability to use chaotic magic. Bob Stancliff : > I don't see where this came from or is going to, but since broos are >sentient, there is no reason they can't control their lust for a while. I concur. I think it's possible for any strong-willed broo to temporarily controll it's lusts given sufficient motivation to do so. Whether illumination might give such motivation is unclear to me.

Illumination >doesn't remove chaotic features for example, or affect their >ability to use chaotic magic. No, but Illumination enables, say, an Orlanthi to worship Thanatar, or a Storm Bull to get along with non-obvious chaotic features, so I was thinking: If it allows non-chaotics to freely worship or associate with chaos, does it allow chaotics to overcome their chaotic urges? If so, it would be an admittedly circumstantial indicator that there are many illuminated chaotics in the Empire.

What about the RQ/Glorantha rules already published in _Dorastor_? Pendragon (Chaosium) has a supplement (is it _Nobles_?) which includes estates. I also recommend _Hârn_Manors_.

I think these sort of things have to be the exception. There are probably Broo heroquests that augment fertility beyond the norm. It may even be that a basic broo can only impregnate females, with male mammal impregnation being a fairly easy ability to acquire, followed by wider species variation (lizards, fish, insects, etc.), the top end of which is "anything with a hole in it", that only a few achieve. I don't see the need to write them up as scenarios, though!
