Just so you know, I'm pulling this all outta my head or campaign experience (which may be based on some published source, but none that I know of). With regards to Broo reproduction, all I can think of is the movie "Alien".

Depends how valuable they are. If the object (weapons, armor, etc.) can be sterilized (dunked in boiling water, held over flame) that should work fine. Perhaps there are ways of sterilizing the weapons without the use of high temperatures (like a good soapy lather).

>What is the gestation period for a broo?

No idea. Three days sounds reasonable though.

>Is the host conscious and aware? If so, wouldn't people try to commit=
> suicide afterwards?

The host is conscious and aware if they're conscious and aware during the impregnating. If they weren't conscious, they should guess they were impregnated though. Yes, probably a lot of people commit suicide. Some might try to get the "egg" removed. That's why Broo tend to hold people prisoner until the birth scene.

>What does a broo larvae look like?

See "Alien." Bloody. It probably looks a lot more like mom and dad than the beast in "Alien" though.
