Julian,
I like your take on both Nandan and Vinga.
Short comment on the pregnancy thing. Sometimes, drama dictates. My Vingan ended up being the only female available during an unexpected fertility ritual out in the wilds of Prax. So, she got pregnant. With twins. Would have been triplets, but somehow the third guy didn't impress Ernalda enough. Cam was, however, rather an absentee mother as soon as the weaning was over.

Otherwise I've never really liked the contraceptive red hair stuff, it just seems like an easy cop-out. A Vingan's sexuality should be defined in-game, not waved away for convenience' sake (unless that's what GM and player both want of course, and fair enough, not everyone wants such complexities in their game -- but really, female characters in games are very often all magically immune to pregnancy and VD etc anyway ;-) ).
